Longhorns steer

Southwest drive

PITCHING IS KEY:
Orioles, A's poise for combat

By THERESA SWEDO
In these opening weeks of col-I
lege football many bright stars in
the Southwestern Conference have
dimmed, but the lone star of the
University of Texas shines on and
on.
In their debut game the Long-
horns defeated the UCLA Bruins
by a score of 28-10, disproving
ominous rumors that their flock
of sophomores might prove to be
too green for an effective per-
formance.
In the UCLA game, the Long-:
horns used some of the playingj
features they are famed for, in-,
cluding the Wishbone-T offense.

One reason for Royal's optim-
ism is the downfall of the Ar-

As if that were not enough
troubles for one team, the de-
fensive line is even worse than
any other headache picked at ran-
dom. The men playing those posi-
tions are young, small, inexper-
ienced, and they need to toughen
up. The overall lack of leadership
on the Rice team tends to cor-
rode the very will of the team to
win.
However, all is not dark. Rice

Nebraska Cornhuskers 34-7. With
troubles in defense, the Aggies
don't seem to be too much of a
problem for the Longhorn on-

Last year Carlen did a good
job with his team, finishing up
with an 8-3 record. This year he

Defensively, Tech has been stub-

State, moved ahead of North Da-

football poll.
North Dakota State, which led
to the first week's balloting, drop-

The voting for the top position
was so close, however, that only
two points - 236-234 - sepa-

Arkansas State received the
most first place votes - eight,

Charlie Finley, baseball's great-
est goof artist and showman, has
pulled off his ultimate c a p e r:
championship baseball. On April
20th of this year, his Oakland
Athletics jumped into first-place
in the American League West and
amazingly nonchalantly ran away
with the division title.
Beginning this Saturday, Char-
lie will have, to outdo himself
when his A's take on the w o r 1 d
champion, nearly invincible Ori-
oles from Baltimore. Rhetoric and
Finley aside, there can be no ques-
tion about it: these are the two
best teams in baseball.
Until the All-Star break, t h e
A's were Vida Blue this, Vida Blue
that and Vida Blue's powder blue
Cadillac. But no more; even after
Blue fell apart (victim of
a strange disease, some say, that
he caught from an overexposure
to sportswriters and their typi-
cally ridiculous questions), t h e
A's continued to win. They've been
playing good, hungry baseball bas-
ed on solid pitching, speed a n d
an adequate defense.
Chuck Dobson carries a 15-5 re-
cord into the playoffs while Cat-
fish Hunter has won twenty games
to help pick up- the slack from a
shell-shocked Blue.
The bullpen suffered a serious
loss this week when it was an-
nounced that Ron Klimkowski was
named to replace sore-armed John
"Blue Moon" Odom on the A's
pitching roster for the play-offs.
Hopefully, Roland Fingers a n d
Diego Segui will help fill the gap
for manager Dick Williams.
Reggie Jackson has been play-
ing the best baseball of his ca-
reer and is currently tied for the
AL home run championship with
32. Sal Bando should finish t h e
year with 100 RBI's and owner
Finley has nominated him for the
AL's MVP award for his consist-
ent play at third base. S u r e -
gloved "Campy" Campaneris adds
speed and clutch hitting to t h e
Oakland attack.
What can you say about t h e
Baltimore Orioles? They're cool,
relaxed, unexcitable; they're old
er, more experienced team than
the A's, and possibly a bit more
complacent. They're boringly ef-
ficient to boot.
Dave McNally, Mike Cuellar,
Pat Dobson and Jim Palmer have
each won twenty games as Frank
and Brooks Robinson continue to
casually turn defeat into victory,
While the A's are definitely a
younger, speedier team, the Ori-
oles must have the best defense
in baseball with Paul Blair, Don

Buford and Merv Rettenmund pa-j
troling the outfield while Brooks
and Mark Belanger suck up every-
thing hit to the left side of the
infield.r

This little slpstick
could increase your
typing speed
by two or three days.
Students will be elated over a completely new
way to correct typing errors: Liquid Paper's® new
dispenser, slipstick.
When you're typing the big one, the 30-page
paper you've been sweating for weeks, that's when
mistakes bug you the most. So you slow down.
And the closer you get to the bottom of the page,
the more you clutch up. Mess up now and you've
got a whole page to retype.
When you've got a slipstick handy, you don't
worry about mistakes. One easy touch releases a
special fluid that buries the mistake and leaves a
clean new surface like the paper itself.
So you type relaxed. And make fewer mistakes.
On the big assignments, Liquid Paper's new slip-
stick could put you days ahead.
ASK FOR LIQUID PAPER SLIPSTICK AT YOUR
BOOKSTORE OR ORDER DIRECT WITH THIS COUPON.
