Renovations include the conver sion of the grass practice fields into artificial turf for inclement weather practices and for use by the Department of Kinesiology. Two new grass fields were also approved and will be located where the Omar Smith Tennis Complex is now located. The transition from turf to grass is a nationwide trend in college football and will affect some activities that were previ ously held on Kyle Field. The football team will still be able to sing the war hymn after the game and cadets will be al lowed to chase yell leaders, but the grass field will only be able to handle limited wear and tear. Groff said A&M will not host any marching band contests next year. The bands decided on their own not to use Kyle Field, but even if they had asked Groff said he probably would have declined. The Aggie Band will also be re stricted from using the grass fields except for halftime performances. “The problem is that the grass is designed to for 40-50 hours of use a year,” Groff said, “so it lim its the use of the field.” Lt. Col. Ray E. Toler, Corps band director, said the restricted use would not have a great effect on the band because they will still be able to use the two prac tice fields with artificial turf. The band has traditionally practiced in Kyle Field for 45 minutes Friday mornings and prior to home games. “We practiced on Kyle Field to correct spacing and precision problems that we couldn’t do on our practice field because it is in such horrible shape,” Toler said. The grass will be a good sur face to march on during half time, Toler said, as long as the weather cooperates. “The only bad thing about grass fields is if it rains the grass can get pretty nasty,” he said, “which makes it hard to move and do some of the things we do.” Sketch By Quatro inch, 5nt va- In The Buff By Valerie leveral party, raylor o be a le. lenwe right eeA tx cjood book +o f<L0ud over" Chri'SF rri<vS breA.k. +0 Keep Yooir studious /TT/V)Y -PresFv for school ? are ^ugg es-Ffons: 1 ja.c( fcde. o-f a.n old, washed-up sTeer toho i s -foi led u>hi fe -tri/iruj -to -faeif flys'z ohccS'f ^oT so') GREAT EXPeCtatia, Wou) (X would be. -foo+k’all -Vea-m tWt ever-livin’ e^er- lovin'j-figh-hVi' TexasA)gif Crap beaTowT oT -fhewf dnd my -favori-fe.; Of -t-s/rS 0-n6 MhN +.u.
