Professors at Texas A&M take care of students’ minds; Dan Ruiz of the Memorial Student Center looks after their stom achs. The MSC assistant food mana ger has served gastronomic de lights for 15 years, specializing in banquets, luncheons, coffees and catering to events at White Coliseum and the president’s home. Ruiz arranges two to three meals on an average day. Groups of 16 to 300 persons consume them. He orders food for spe cified menus and writes them for Lion and Kiwanis Club meet ings. With five fulltime helpers and 20 students waiting part-time, Ruiz has made culinary arrange ments for as many as four ban quets a day. He’s had gripes from customers and helpers, but except for year-end study de mands, Dan loses few of either. “I try to get along with my people and the customer,” Ruiz confided. “If a customer says something is wrong, we correct it.” An Aggie once registered com plaints about his beef. Ruiz picked up the ticket for the stu dent’s meal and told a waiter: “We want the customer to be satisfied.” Except for a food serving school at Houston’s Shamrock- Hilton Hotel, he has had no formal training. “When I started, I tried to keep my eyes open and see what was going on,” the Bryan native remarked. From a waiter in the coffee shop, where the late Charles Burton of the Dallas News gave him a clipping about Aggie baseball coach Tom Chandler, the intense food spe cialist worked his way up to assistant to MSC Food Service Manager John Ingram. “I haven’t got time for any thing but work,” is Ruiz’ motto. Beef is the most sought menu item, he notes. MSC kitchens are most famous for smorgas bord s. “I couldn’t count how many Swedish smorgasbords we’ve had,” the 40-year-old assistant manager remarked. “We have Hawaiian smorgasbords occas ionally and a new one—a German smorgasbord —■ coming up.” Prolonged contact with Aggies has made one of Ruiz. “I like the way they introduce themselves,” he said, “and their friendliness.” The father of three said an Aggie stopped to offer help on the highway once because of an Aggie sticker on his car. Dan says he tries to do the same. Ruiz began working at A&M in 1942 at Duncan Dining Hall and the Aggieland Inn. After two years in the Army, he re turned to A&M to work at Sbisa Hall. Following a layoff, he worked at government construc tion at old Bryan Air Force Base (now A&M’s research annex). He started in the MSC in 1951 as a waiter and about the same time met his wife, Juana, in Monterrey. She’s the best cook in the family, Dan hurriedly points out. He doesn’t even broil steaks for a backyard cook-out. Fishery Students Due To Restock Easterwood Lake Fish Lake, near Easterwood Airport, is about to lose its fish. Fishery students plan to re move the present stock next week and restock with bass and sun- fish. Better fishing is the aim of the project. Total kill and restocking were planned by junior and senior wildlife science students in a fishery biology course, with as sistance from Texas Game Warden trainees. “Fish Lake fishing has been poor for several years,” explained Instructor Van Conner. “One reason for this is evercrowding. Unfortunately, the only remedy is removal of fish by draining or poisoning.” Students will apply Derris powder or rotenone, provided by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. Hybrid sunfish with lower re productive capacity will be used in restocking. Victory by Joseph Conrad now at The World Of Books Shoppe 207 S.
