Becky Munson has no desire to drink.She has friends who do it, and she knows fully where to get it, but it doesn't interest her in the least.

"I don't think I need to have alcohol to have fun," said Munson, a freshman ballet and kinesiology major. "And I have too much stuff to do to get wasted. The aftereffects are not somthing I'm crazy about."

Her lack of interest in drinking was echoed by two other freshmen who were seated with her at The Main.

The Horned Frogs looked sluggish at times against a winless Army team Saturday night, but they put together a solid second half to beat the Black Knights 38-17 at Amon G. Carter Stadium.Despite the 21-point margin of victory, the Frogs had to sweat out the win. The Black Knights brought the game within one score in the fourth quarter before bowing to TCU.

"I don't think we particularly played well in any of the three categories -- offense, defense or special teams - but it's a (win)." head coach Gary Patterson said after the game.

The TCU bulletin for undergraduate studies can be some interesting reading, especially the part where it says that, "All undergraduates will have some courses in AddRan College of Humanities and Social Sciences and the College of Science and Engineering, for a broad, liberal arts-based educational background in the humanities, natural and social sciences."Therefore, in coming to TCU, I was looking forward to studying many varied subjects, including Latin.

Cunniff also said he hopes TCU's running squads will eventually develop into nationally recognized programs.

The Frogs will play their final two home games of the 2005 season when they host Nevada-Las Vegas and San Diego State this weekend at Garvey-Rosenthal Stadium.Head coach Dan Abdalla said he wants to treat the game against UNLV like any other game, even though he served as the Rebels head coach from 2000-2004.

"It's just going to be another game," Abdalla said. "They're going to play hard, we're going to play hard and it's just going to come down to which team will be able to execute."
