Hsu said the Mini-Olympics will promote unity between the international students. “The idea started because one of the missions of ISA is to unite international cul tures, and we hope to do this through sports,” Hsu said. Tatsuki Ohashi, ISA president and a senior international studies major, said in light of recent inci dents in Northgate, he hopes ail students at A&M will participate in the opening ceremony. “We would like to see all students come out to support the Mini-Olympics and take this opportunity to talk and get to know the international stu dents,” he said. The times and locations of each of the sporting matches will be posted on the ISA bul letin board in the ISA office in East Bizzell. Football "We would like to see all students come out and support the Mini- Olympics and take this opportunity to talk and get to know the inter national students.” Continued from Page 5 Considering that two of those games matched the supposedly high- powered Aggies against the suspect defenses of UNT and Louisiana Tech, A&M’s offensive woes could be bor dering on an all-out crisis, especially with Nebraska looming on the Ag gies' schedule. McCown said he and his team mates are well aware of the Aggies’ ongoing scoring drought and have recognized some of the problems. “The tempo of our offense real ly hasn't been where it needs to be,” he said. “I think it might be a lack of enthusiasm. “I think you play your best when you’re out fti good time.” Kragthorpe agiet] Cown that the tentpoj offense needs tobepd “I think wecand (our tempo],’’ Kragtk only snapped theba!i ; other night, but we at? seven yards a play.

Vigil Continued from Page 1 In honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Aggies Work ing for a Rape-Free Environment (AWARE), an organization in tended to increase awareness of violence on campus, will run banner campaigns which will be displayed at various locations around campus. In addition, AWARE is spon soring the “Clothesline Project” in which people can decorate and dedicate T-shirts to speak out against domestic violence or honor victims of domestic vio lence. Students who are interest ed in participating can go by the Gender Issues in Education office in 211A YMCA and pick up a T- shirt and paint supplies to deco rate the shirts. Isai Gopalakrishnan, president of AWARE and a junior biology major, said the Clothesline Pro ject is part of a national event, and on Oct. 29 and Oct. 30 the MSC Flagroom will be lined with these decorated shirts. Gopalakrishnan said that stu dents should not be naive and take an “it can’t happen happen to me” attitude. “I have reduced my risks [of being a victim of violence] by just being aware that there is the possibility of something happen ing and always looking up in stead of down,” she said. "To win we must keep our selves in the match, we must maintain a high speed of play and control the ball. The team has to focus on what’s in front of them and be able to hang in." The road trip continues Sunday af ternoon with a game against the Iowa State University Cyclones at 11:30 a.m. at the ISU Soccer Complex.
