NORTH STAR MALI 10:00 A.M. to 9:00 P.M. MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY 10:00 I P.M, SATURDAY TCU football; tragic program FORT WORTH The Good Lord must have something special in mind for the football program of Texas Christian University. certainly putting them through some tragic tests. In many ways football at TCU is remindful of that once- popular song, This Time You Gave Me a just one tall, sad mountain after another for the Frogs to climb.

Abe Martin turned in his whistle to become athletic director after a series of heart attacks, many of the Fort Worth faithful thought better times were ahead. But poor health was minor compared to future events that were to shock the Purple Gang. For almost two years TCU had the only athletic director who attend an athletic event. Doctors figured the excitement would be just too much for old heart. So he worked behind scenes and avoided all games.

But then came Jim Pittman, another coach with ticker trouble. Pittman, however, ignored advice from his medics as he dedicated himself to returning TCU to power. There were times when Jim seemed to have his program on the right road but midway in the season of he dropped dead on the sidelines in Waco as his Frogs engaged Baylor in a wild tussle. Lord, that was some kind of a mountain. It was first assistant, youthful Billy Tohill, who took command that November night and left with a 34-27 victory over Baylor.

And it was Tohill who became the next head coach here in Cowtown. But only for a short period. In the spring of Tohill totaled his car and much of himself in a horrible, early-morning crash. He lost a foot and for weeks his life hung by a thread. Another mountain.

Tragedy old companion This year tragedy struck one of the TCU players, a junior running back named Kent Waldrep. As discussed here in previous columns, Kent broke his neck in a freak fall in the Alabama game last month. This might be the tallest and most expensive mountain of all. Kent is still in a Birmingham hospital, paralyzed from the chest down. Ten days ago he scratched his nose with a finger and just the other day he somehow moved his left foot about four inches.

He says walk again, someday, but doctors who know more about such spinal injuries say nothing short of a miracle will ever get Kent on his feet again. Tragedy, of course, is never a welcomed companion but its presence has been felt so often and so hard here at TCU you might think Froggie football fans are now becoming calloused, straining to see the other mountain that must await them. not the case. Much of their enthusiasm for this season was drained weeks ago but nobody is talking about dropping football, canning the new coach, Jim Shofner, or even cutting back. They just lick their wounds, tend to their own and hope for better things.

No more mountains, please Lord. Attendance is off Most of pre-game football talk around Fort Worth centered around fund-raising campaigns for Waldrep, not the scheduled opponent of the afternoon, Longhorns. Well-polished but semi-old cars were placed in strategic points and folks were offered the opportunity to whack away with a sledge hammer. The going rate was $1 a whack and all money collected goes to the Waldrep rehabilitation fund. be surprised at the number of good people who just love to knock out a windshield or slam a hammer into somebody shiny fender.

For a good cause, of course. game drew less than 30,000 and another mountain. It was one of the smallest crowds ever to watch TCU and Texas strap it on in decent weather. But it sort of figured. TCU carried a 1-8 record into the contest and many Texas fans canceled travel plans after rally last week.

But what happened on the field in Fort Worth Saturday was more disastrous than the gate count. The short end of a 52-3 count say much for any team. And that was just the halftime score. Those mountains are getting steeper but if things ever balance out TCU will someday wind up as the luckiest team in the nation. Right now, if it for bad luck TCU have any luck at all.

Ctntinied frtm Page IS on an 18-yard sweep and a two-yard dive and Mike Dean kicked a 56-yard field goal, a record for old Amon-Carter Field. All that came in the first half and only bright spot to that point was a 33- yard field goal by Tony Biasatti. Alfred Jackson made matters worse on the kickoff for the second half. He gathered it in, broke one tackle and raced 90 yards for a touchdown. Mike Presley passed to Joe Samford for 14 and another third-quarter score and mie Mason intercepted a Jimmy Dan Elzner pass and returned it 32 yards for still another Texas TD.

Walter Rowan, third quarterback, hit Kevin Scott with a 13-yard touchdown toss but the final Longhorn points came in the last seconds when TCU fumbled on its own three and the ball plopped in- TEXAS I First Downs 24 Rushes yards 54 255 40 (minus Passing Yards 79 Return Yards 84 (minus I Passes 7 1) 0 Punts 4 40 1 Fumbles lost 10 Penalties yards 4 51 TCU 20 1 222 3) 20 35 4 6-34 4 3 6 52 to the end zone where two Frogs found it for a safety. That scene provided the peak of frustration, a fitting crown to one of the darkest afternoons in TCU grid history. There were a few high spots, however, as TCU quarterbacks pitched some holes in substitute secondary. Trailing 59-3 in the third, Lee Cook tossed a five-yard touchdown pass to Ronald Parker and late in the fourth, trailing 79-9, Elzner connected on a 14-yard scoring toss to Mike Renfro. When it was all over TCU coach Jim Shofner summed it up in three words.

He appeared as beaten as his weary linemen when he said, were Someone asked him if Texas coach Royal tried to run up the score but he answered, he There was nothing he could do to hold it down. I should apologize to him for not being able to compete That was about all Shofner had to say but he got right to the point in those few words.

North Texas had surprised with an early 7-0 lead when Kelly Fry picked a fumble out of the air on the opening kickoff and returned it 22 yards for a touchdown.

West Texas, however, drove 76 yards in seven plays midway through the period to tie the game. The big play was a Tully Blanchard to Tracy Dickson completion for 43 yards to the Mean Green 13. Three plays later Darden scored his first touchdown. The Buffs got the ball back when North Texas quarterback Ken Washington was intercepted by West Mike Lozano at the Buffs 45. He returned the ball 24 yards to the NTSU 31.

Seven plays later, Darden got the go-ahead touchdown. The extra point was missed, giving the Buffs a lead.
