Finance Center Expects
v • _ I
Rise In Check, Processing
_ CtMck caahing ia Mg basin«u
at the Student Finance Center of
Ttxaa AAM'a Memorial Student
Center
The Center haa p roc eased a
record 1*1,704 checka totaling
tl^0S,4*7 during the pact fiscal
year, aurpaaaing the old mark of
11,546471 in cheeks the preriouc
year.
"We expect an even larger in*
crease next year because of a
larger enrollment," pointed out
Cashier Faye Yes tea. "And we
are preparing for the rush.”
Mrs. Yea tea expects the number
of cheeks to grow despite s ruling
requiring all persona to provide
checks from their individual
banks.
, “This is a comply wth a Fed
eral Reserve bank regulation,"
noted Mrs. Ysates. “These checks
have magnetic ink coding which
facilitates processing. Federal
Reserve banks reported an 83 per
cent increase in the volume of
checks last year.”
ALTHOUGH the new require
ment does not officially go into
effect until Thursday, the Memo-
rial Student Center tested it
throughout August
“Some students srgued a little
with cashiers at fint,” Mrs.
Ycates explained, “but the plan
is working fine now. We always
obtain* the dormitory and room
number of students ia addition to
their identification card.”
Student checks have a $10
mnimum and a $20 maximum.
The Student Finance Center
also handles the processing of
registration checks for most con
ferences conducted at the MSC.
Employees sort out checks in
reference to local and out of town
banks, then according to amounts.
As the name implies, the Stu
dent Finance Center serves as
headquarters for treasurers of
student organisationa More than
400 accounts are kept in the fa
cility. Each organisation has a
box reserved for the safekeeping
of records.
“WE ANTICIPATE about 50
new accounts this fall,” Mrs.
Ycates observed. “Space for the
students to work is our largest _
problem. To make sure their
books are correct at all times, we
check their balances for them
each time they conduct business.”
Some of the treasurers have no
experience in bookkeeping, but
they receive the necessary assist
ance from Student Finance per
sonnel.
In many instances, advisers of
clubs and organisations must give
written approval before bills can
be paid. And the treasurers make
monthly financial statements to
their organixations. •
A list of all student organize
tions ia prepared by October 16
for distribution to all campus de
partments and Bryan-College Sta
tion marchafits The list includes
names of officers and advisors
of each group
An additional service provided
by the Student Finance Center is
the mailing of checks when the
organizations pay Mils.

A Texas Aggie who couldnt
shoot back received his second
Silver Star tor combat heroisas in
Vietnam.
Maj. Ralph C. Dresaer, a 1962
graduate who is now at Keesler
AFB, Miss., commanded a C-123
Provider flight that was hit by
enemy fire $0 time*.
The three Air Force planes the
major commanded were armed
only with a nontoxic weed killer.
They were on a defoliation mis
sion over the Mekong Delta.
While spraying the trouble
some area near VI Thanh, south
of Can Tho, Major Dresaer and
the sipnll. all-volunteer group of
air commandos went in “low and
slow” to allow their loaui* of de
foliant to settle into the trees.
The weed killer soon strips the
^vegetation of leaves and deprives
the Viet Coa ef protective cover-
ing.
The unarmed aircraft offered
easy targets for VC heavy auto
matic weapons fire. Dresser's
plane was hit, but inspite of the
danger, he continued the spray
ing run until his herbici<ie supply
, was gone.
An engine on the second plane
was shot out, and the major
placed his aircraft between the
stricken two-engine Provider and
the ground to shield the plane
from enemy fire. Dreaeer’i plane
and the third ship then criss
crossed beneath the endangered
C-123 until it could gain altitude
to fly for a safe landing at Binh
Thuy Air Base.
The Aggie, san of Mr. and
Mrs. William C. Dresaer 206
Chevy Chase Drive, San Antonio,
returned from the combat zone
last fall and now instruct* al
lied student pilots training at
Keesler through the Military As
sistance Training Program.
Dresaer attended Thomas Jef
ferson High and received a bach
elor degree at AAM, where he
was commissioned through the
AFROTC program. He was a
member of Squadron “E“ ia the
Corps of Cadets, a Distinguished
Student artd played football
three years. Dresaer played on
the Ray George-coached team
with Bob Smith, Glenn Lippman,
Yale Lary, Jack Little and Ray
Graves. They defeated Texae,
22-21, in a 5-3-1 season. ,
The major and his wife Dolly,
also from San Antonio, have four
children.

Hallowed tradition
of "pinning" a girl is
up-dated by
Sprite bottle caps.
According to gn independent survey (ve took it
ourqelves), a startling new practice is becoaing '
widespread on soae college caapuses
Suddenly, fraternity sen are no longer "pinning"
the;lovely young things that catch their eye . .
ISstead, thay rfach for a bottle of tart,
tingling Spnte--and proceed to "cap"
their affections
Why has..this
cone about 9
Perhaps because
' of what happens
when-you go
through the cerenony of opening'V a bottle-of Sprits.
It fizzes! Roars! Buzzes! Tingles! Bubbles!
All of which Makes for a auch acre Moving MOMont
than to sinply "pin" a girl.
Then, too, the intinapy of two people engaged
in the act of opening a/ bottle of Sprits in itself
leads to strong eaoUoijtal involvement
Capped off, of course, by the sharing of a
few wosents of delicious abandon (Tasting the
tingling tartness of Sprite, that is.)
The beauty of the idea is that if the course
of true love does not run snooth, you don’t have
to go to the trouble of getting back your pin.
You Just buy another bottle of Sprite.
