AUSTIN — The new “no pass, no
play” eligibility rule for extracurri
cular activities has been a traumatic
experience, a coach told the Senate
Education Committee on Wednes
day.
“There needs to be some room for
stubbing your toe,” said Jerry Co-
malander, a San Antonio coach rep
resenting the Texas High School
Coaches Association.
Comalander joined with other
coaches, parents and school adminis
trators in testifying before the com
mittee on the recently passed school
reform act. The act, passed by the
State Board of Education ruled that
anyone taking part in school athlet
ics or other extracurricular activities
must make a passing grade of 70 in
all subjects over a six-week period or
be suspended from play or practices
for six weeks.
The board also limits practice for
each sport or activity to eight hours
each week, including travel time.
Mission
(continued from page 1)
Each year, hundreds of homeless
people — most of them men — pass
through the four shelters sponsored
by the Mission. Last year, the Mis
sion aided between 105 and 141
homeless men, women and children
every month.
Alice Stubbs, acting executive di
rector of the Mission, and Joann Se-
besta, assistant director, say some
men return to the Mission several
times. One Mission “regular” has
been through the Bryan shelter
about 80 times in eight years, Se-
Sen. Bob Glasgow, D-Stephen-
ville, had written one-bill to trim the
suspension period for those who do
not pass all courses from six weeks to
one week. Also sent to a subcommit
tee with Glasgow’s bill were bills by
Sens. Bill Sarpalius, D-Canyon and
Bill Sims, D-San Angelo, which
would change the rule limiting prac
tice time for athletics.
“It has been a traumatic experi
ence for a kid to get kicked off the
school team or not be allowed to go
to the school prom because they
flunked one course,” Glasgow said.
“The kids are upset. The parents are
upset and the school board members
are upset.”
Comalander said the new rules
are increasing the pressure on stu
dents.
“In the Houston area, I will not
name the school, a young athlete was
on the point of suicide because of
the pressure of passing all his
courses,” he said. “When we make a
rule so stringent, we are making a
mistake.”
besta says. Some people come to the
Bryan Mission because they hear
that the Mission has good meals and
housing.
“We’re supposed to be one of the
best in the nation,” Sebesta says. “We
give more, and we do more.”
The directors say the men often
have backgrounds of alcoholism,
mishaps and family problems. But
it’s hard to determine why the men
are drifters, Sebesta says.
“We try to find things out about
them, but it takes a long time ” she
says. “They tell you what they think
you want to hear.'”
