T he summer movies are now
officially over, and the holiday
blitz has yet to begin, so the
latest movies may be unfamiliar to
most moviegoers.
Wes Craven’s New Nightmare
(★★★) — In this futuristic
thriller, the master of horror
awakens to find that the Houston
Oilers have hired Freddy Krueger
to solve their quarterback prob
lem. As Freddy throws touchdown
after touchdown, members of the
Oiler coaching staff and front of
fice start dropping like flies. The
last twenty minutes is a cinematic
masterpiece as the entire city of
Houston helps Freddy find where
Oiler owner Bud Adams is hiding.
Jason’s Lyric (★) — Dallas
Maverick rookie sensation Jason
Kidd finds a career as a gangsta
rapper after breaking his ankle in
a freak accident with an over
weight Roy Tarpley. Jimmy Jack-
son and Jamal Mashburn sing
back-up on the smash hit “Point
Guard at Point Blank.”
Radio Land Murders (★★★★)
— In a strange twist Harry Garay
is hired to do play-by-play by the
Houston Rockets after Gene Pe
tersen chokes on his microphone.
Garay gives a masterful perfor
mance in calling the games as he
murders the players’ names.
“Sam Castle down to Kareem
Olakujohn back out to Ryne Sand
berg, the shot, Holy Cow it’s good.
Ahhhh crap, Maxrell is called for
pushing so the basket is no good.”
Pulp Fiction (★★) — In
Quentin Tarantino’s new movie,
the violence is down, the truth
stretching is up. Glenn Robinson
stars as an NBA rookie who be
lieves he is actually worth $100
million, like someone would actu
ally do that. I mean how can you
believe this dialogue?
Milwaukee Bucks: What makes
you think you should have a con
tract for more money than
Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson
and Larry Bird made in their en
tire careers?
Lady Ag volleyball team sweeps Owls
By Kristina Buffin
The Battalion
Total dominance was the only way to describe
the Texas A&M women’s volleyball team win
over Rice last night in front of 485 at G. Rollie
White Coliseum. The Lady Aggies swept the
Owls 15-5, 15-9, and 15-4 to extend their win
ning streak to four games.
“I was very nervous,” head coach Laurie Cor-
belli said. “I’m very happy it’s over and I am very
proud of how the team did.”
The Lady Aggies outhit the Owls .297 to .010
and had only 11 hitting errors compared to the
Owls 27.
“I felt like Rice really wasn’t into their game
tonight,” Corbelli said. “Anytime a team (Rice)
has 27 hitting errors during three games in a
match, obviously they weren’t very sharp.”
The Lady Aggie’s dominated game one defen
sively by only allowing five points. After Rice tied
the game at four, the Lady Aggies allowed only
one more point before going on to win 15-5.
“I think we were ready to come out tonight,”
setter Suzy Wente said. “We wanted to come out
and beat them.”
Outside hitter Jennifer Bronner led the team
with seven digs and Suzy Wente led the team in
assists with 21.
The Lady Aggie’s goal for game three was to
increase their intensity and put away the Owl’s
in the third game.
“We picked up the intensity after we had a
talk,” Corbelli said. “I’m really pleased how they
responded to it. I thought they handled game
three really well.”
When the Aggies went up 12-2, Corbelli be
gan to rotate in her second team players.
“I thought about playing them earlier,” Cor
belli said. “I like to play a lot of players when it
feels comfortable. I waited as long as I thought
was reasonable.”
The Aggies allowed the Owls only four points
before winning the game 15-4.
The Lady Aggies hope to continue their winning
streak when they play 19th ranked University of
Georgia on Friday and the University of Tennessee
on Saturday at G. Rollie White Coliseum.

Cotton Bowl returns to CBS in 1996
DALLAS (AP) — The Cotton Bowl.
The Southwest Conference. CBS.
For 35 years, they went together like
college football on New Year’s Day. Then
CBS was jilted for NBC and two years
later SWC teams divorced each other.
But the trio just couldn’t stay apart.
On Wednesday, CBS announced a six-
year deal that will return the Cotton
Bowl to its airwaves for six years begin
ning Jan. 1, 1996.
“After allowing our friends across the
street (NBC) temporary custody, we’re
delighted to be back in Dallas,” said Len
DeLuca, vice president of programming
for CBS Sports.
There’s actually two deals involved in
getting the game back on CBS.
The first is the sale of the television
rights to Liberty Sports, Inc., for an
undisclosed price, and the second is Lib
erty paying CBS about $800,000 a year
for the air time to broadcast the game.
CBS, therefore, has no financial risk
and gets a strong lead-in game to its
high-powered bowl day that also fea
tures the Fiesta and Orange bowls be
ginning in 1996.
The game still will have all the typi
cal CBS touches, including technical
staff and on-air personalities.
“It’s great to be back on CBS,” said
Cotton Bowl Athletic Association presi
dent John Crawford. “It’s going to be a
great partnership and we can’t wait to
get started.”
The TV deal comes a day after the
Cotton Bowl figured out a plan to keep
its SWC ties once the league fractures
and four teams join the Big Eight to
form the Big 12, three teams go to the
Western Athletic Conference and Hous
ton becomes an independent.
On Tuesday, the Cotton Bowl an
nounced that the 1996 game will fea
ture the SWC runner-up or Big Eight
runner-up against the WAC champion
or Pac-10 runner-up.
The next five years, the Big 12 run
ner-up will be the host team in the Cot
ton Bowl against either the WAC cham
pion or Pac-10 runner-up.
That plan was made possible by a
deal with the Holiday Bowl, which will
take the two teams not picked by the
Cotton for a late-December game in San
Diego’s Jack Murphy Stadium.
The selection process doesn’t begin
until the bowl alliance has chosen
teams for its three bowl games.
Priest rejoins
A&M cross
country team
By Stewart Doreen
The Battalion
Texas A&M senior Matt Priest
had not run in a cross country
meet in two years coming into
this season, but that has not
stopped him from taking first
place in two meets.
“Fve had more success this year
than ever before,” Priest said.
Priest says the rebuilding in
A&M cross country program has
left few similarities from the 1992
season. The changes in personnel
and with new head coach Greg
Hinze has made
everything feel
like new.
“I feel like a
freshman with
senior experi
ence,” Priest said.
“I think the team
and coaching
have been a
tremendous sup
port to myself.
We’ve got a good
group of guys to train with, so
that makes you work that
much harder.”
Hinze said that it is the atti
tude of the senior that has brought
out the ability that has always
been there. Hinze said that
Priest’s attitude is carrying over to
the other team members.
“Most of Matt’s improvements
have come from a confidence
standpoint,” Hinze said. “He’s
a lot more confident right now,
and his confidence rubs off on
the team.”
Priest, a team co-captain, came
to Texas A&M from Mesquite Po-
teet as the state champion in the
3,200-meter run. He has enjoyed
success at A&M finishing no lower
than 13th in any meet in 1992 and
