Utyilij P ^Production Went Smoothly’ Tuesday THE Thursday, February 20, 1969 BATTALION College Station, Texas Page 3 By SCOTT HERVEY Battalion. Special Writer Hundreds of Aggies as well as ocal residents and Baylor fans earned Tuesday night that the te, Educational Television Program it A&M turns out more than aped lectures for the English >f fin Hying jj Department. Co*! is i| in tk 5 m, w ’uli ETV Role Extends To Sports Coverage Chastain attributed the success of the overflow telecast to the “outstanding efforts of the ETV engineering department which made possible network quality coverage with only 18 hours notice.” Basketball fans that drifted to luion Hall ftert he gates of G. Kollie White Coliseum closed to ,11 but reserved seat ticket holders were furnished wtih a view of the game, thanks to the ETV system. Three television cameras, placed in key locations in the Coliseum, lent is never missed a key play. TEN MEN handled the produc tion for ETV. Chastain directed while Richard McGaughhey, Nor man Godwin, and Bill Digner worked cameras. The engineering problems were handled by ETV Chief Engineer George Shearer and Bill Freiberger, while Steve Orthwein coordinated video tape control in Coach Metcalf’s office According to Educational Tele vision Director Mel Chastain, the iident! technical end of the production went smoothly. •^iun anqoui P UB The play-by-play was furnished by Mike Mistovich with the Aggie Basketball Network. ETV tech nician Jack McCarty co-ordinated the audio portion. When ETV was asked to tele vise the game by the athletic de partment, the technicians were in a taping session at the Plan Sci ences Building. When the session ended late Monday afternoon, they broke down their equipment and moved tot he Coliseum. AFTER SETTING up, they ran equipment checks into the night. Monday morning they continued their equipment checks and re ceived final instructions shortly before the game. When asked whether or not ETV would consider televising any more basketball games, Chas tain said that things went so well Tuesday night he “could see no reason why we wouldn’t do it.” According to Chastain, all it would take to televise another basketball game, or even a foot ball game, would be a request from the athletic department. Sports production plays only a small part in ETV’s role at A&M. Seven departments regu larly request production of taped lectures and guest speakers. Complete control facilities are located in a remote truck that can be moved anywhere on or off campus. Chastain explained this eases taping lectures involving the use of heavy equipment. Ac cording to the Texas Education Association, A&M has the best equipped university owned tele vision remote unit in the state.

Fish Ball (Continued From Page 1) “ ‘The New Breed Soul’ from Vic toria will play at the dance,” he added. The barbecue Saturday will be at Hensel Park from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. “If it rains, we have permission to move under Kyle Field to pre vent the barbecue from being can celled,” Brown said. After the barbecue the judges will meet the finalists in an in formal reception in the Memorial Student Center. CONCLUDING the week-end, the Fish Ball in Duncan Dining Hall starts at 8 and lasts until 12, featuring the “Fun and Games Commission” from Houston. Dress is class A with white shirt and bow tie for cadets and suit and tie for civilians. Girls may wear either semi-formals or formals. “Tickets are $7 for everything during the Fish Weekend,” Brown said. “No split tickets will be sold.” Tickets can be purchased in the Student Program office, at each event, or from any freshman officer. Students may park their cars behind Duncan Dining Hall, for the Ball, Brown added. COLD, WET DOG Inclement weather Wednesday failed to stop this pooch’s young mistress from taking him to the Small Animal Clinic for treatment. With her dog wrapped in a blanket for warmth, Darlene Wirasnik of Bryan stood in line with others for an appointment. Board Ruling (Continued From Page 1) tember and October and asked him why he had waited so long to air his complaints. Rowton said that he had a class at the time of the first meet ing and that he asked Mrs. Cecelia Prihoda, secretary of student pub lications, to notify him of the second meeting. Mrs. Prihoda later said she had told Rowton that the second meeting had been cancelled. Lindsey then pointed out that Rowton had waited until about ten minutes before Wednesday’s meeting to tell him he wanted to appear before the board. “I wanted to make sure that the other board members weren’t briefed about the situation be forehand,” Rowton said. “The board members have not been told anything about your appearance,” Lindsey said. ROWTON then reiterated his purpose for appearing before the board. “What I want the board to consider is the retroactive ruling and no period of adjustment,” Rowton concluded. Rowton then left the meeting and the board further discussed the matter. Dr. Clark, the newest member of the board, asked for a clarifi cation of the ruling and said it seemed to him that the rule actually told Battalion staffers to “move up or be excluded.” “I think it is vague and needs to be rewritten,” White commented. “With all due respect to Row- ton, I think the ruling has worked out well,” Dr. Bowers said. “SOME OF the staffs think they can decide who will be editor among themselves,” White said. “That’s been the history of The Battalion,” added Lindsey. Dr. Bowers explained that the ruling was designed not to ex clude certain persons from top editorial positions, but rather to encourage participation by a greater number of students. “Perhaps we should have the best man available even if he serves five years and into gradu ate school. He should present a good image of A&M,” White com mented. “It’s easier to let a man be editor for three years, but that’s not the purpose of the learning process,” Lindsey said. IT WAS pointed out that if people in key positions are not allowed to work at other top positions the next year, the quali ty of The Battalion might suffer because of inexperience of new staffers. Dr. Bowers said that many out standing students from junior col leges come to A&M and could help fill the gap. “I have to put myself in the Aggies’ shoes and ask why a per son transferring in should be higher than someone on the staff for two years. There’s seniority in everything else; why not in The Battalion?” White suggested. “I think perhaps there should be a combination of seniority and ability,” Dr. Bowers answered. He pointed out that Rowton al ready has a preferred position when he graduates because he served as Battalion editor his junior year. “I DON’T think that was Row- ton’s point (for appearing before the board),” White said. Lindsey further defended the ruling. “I think it is useful in fulfilling the obligation of the university to educate as many people as pos sible,” he said. “Isn’t one of the intentions to give the editor the freedom to appoint his own staff?” Dr. Clark asked. “I keep thinking of the pur pose of the university; to helit these students learn,” Lindsey answered. Lindsey said that before the ruling was adopted the top posi tions on the Battalion were con trolled by a small group of stu dents. “Not only was a small group perpetuating themselves; they were discouraging other people,” he added. Lindsey emphasized that edi tors of student publications are always welcome to appear sJ meetings of the board. A&M Schedules Houston Art Exhibit “Art of the Print,” a series of original prints, lithographs and graphic arts from Marjorie Kauff man Galleries of Houston, will be exhibited for the next two weeks in the Memorial Student Center.
