New TV Service 100-Milers ‘Running Wild’
Talked By Council
Things have “just gone wild” in
A&M’s 100 Mile Club, with people
running all over the place, says
John M. Chevrette, smiling.
TAKES AFTER HER GRANDFATHER
Michaela Cohan, 25, granddaughter of George M. Cohan,
poses backstage at the Palace Theater in New York City
with Joel Grey, star of the Broadway musical “George M!,”
which is based on the famous song writer's life. Miss Co

an Army service club director. Like her grandfather did
50 years ago, she encourages performers to entertain

The College Station City Coun
cil Monday tabled a measure
which would have provided the
area with two television cable
services.
The Community Cable Corpor
ation had petitioned the City of
College Station for a franchise.
The franchise measure passed on
the first two readings and need
ed to be passed once more to be
final.
Seven people from Midwest
Video, headed by president G. R.
Morrell, pointed out that CCC
had not presented a financial
sheet listing their backings.
John Lawrence, speaking for
Midwest Video, which currently
serves the area, said it is “un
feasible” for another cable com
pany to exist in College Station
Air Force Awards
Air Force Draws
Government Fire
WASHINGTON (A>) — Govern
ment investigators have reported
that during one six-month period,
the Air Force junked about $6.7
million worth of damaged equip
ment, most of which could have
been economically repaired and
used again.
The General Accounting Office,
the auditing arm of Congress,
made the study at five Air Force
bases and reported that three of
every four pieces of equipment
scrapped could have been repaired
for amounts significantly less
than the cost of new equipment.
The five bases involved were
Scott Air Force Base in Illinois,
Perrin and Randolph bases in
Texas, Nellis in Nevada and
Mountain Home in Idaho.
AIR FORCE regulations per
mit base personnel to scrap equip
ment if it is beyond repair, if re
pair costs would exceed 65 per
cent of the cost of new equip
ment or if condemnation is speci
fied by appli cable technical
orders.
GAO auditors said they believe
that a substantial portion of the
$6.7 million in equipment had
been scrapped during six months
in 1967 because base personnel
believed that the repair costs
would be excessive.
However, GAO had technicians
at three repair depots check 78
condemned items and found that
51 of them could have been re
paired for substantially less than
replacements would cost.
“OUR REVIEW showed that
the primary reason for improper
condemnation of economically re
pairable items was that main
tenance personnel at the bases
did not have adequate knowledge
of depot repair costs, procedures
and capabilities upon which to
base their determinations,” the
GAO report said.
Among the items tested at
GAO’s request was an actuator,
valued at $644, which was con
demned at Nellis Air Force Base
on the basis that repair costs
would exceed 65 per cent of the
equipment’s value. Actual repair
costs, GAO said, would have been
$64 or 9.9 per cent of the replace
ment cost.
Eight Air Force decorations
were awarded Friday to gradu
ate students and an instructor of
the Aerospace Studies Depart
ment, Capt. Louis D. Sassman
Jr.
Medals were p r e s e n t e d in
AFROTC classes by Col. Vernon
L. Head, professor of aerospace
studies.
Captain Sassman received the
Bronze Star Medal for 1967-68
service as material control sec
tion chief at U-Tapao Airfield,
Thailand. The assistant profes
sor who came here last June was
with the 4258th Strategic Wing.
Decorated graduate students
are officers studying at A&M
through the Air Force Institute
of Technology program.
Air medals went to Capt. Wil
liam G. Fox of Victoria and Cap.
John B. Tarsoly of Clinton, S.C.,
both in computer science.
Receiving the first Oak Leaf
Cluster to the Commendation
Medal were Maj. Larry A. Dillon
of Irving, ctvil engineering; Maj.
Loren J. Fox of Downey, Calif.,
computer science; Maj. Robert K.
Reece of Memphis, Tenn., com
puter science, and Capt. Neal E.
Lamping of Dallas, geophysics.
Capt. John H. Bradham of Al-
colu, S.C., pinned on the Com
mendation Medal. He is study
ing for a master’s in meteor
ology.

because of limited population.
Morrell explained that anyone
experiencing any service problem
should call Midwest Video and
that a serviceman would call to
provide repairs to the cable sys
tem free of charge.
City Councilman Jan Dozier,
noting that the Council still was
not fully informed about the CCC,
made a motion to table the fran
chise until a majority of the
council wished to put it up for
consideration.
Graduate Students,
Instructor Given
According to Dozier, this
would exert leverage on Midwest
Video to improve its service, since
a franchise could be granted to
CCC any day the Council wishes.
CCC has received endorsement
from Mike Mistovich, manager of
KORA Radio in Bryan.
City Attorney Don Dillon
pointed out to the council that it
could revoke any franchise it
grants “if CCC doesn’t serve the
best interests of College Station.”
The council votel Holliman
Road as the name for the newly-
paved county road which runs
through the south section of
town. Mayor Anderson said resi
dents of that area had suggested
the names of King, Kennedy, and
Holliman.
Chevrette, an assistant profes
sor in the Health and Physical
Education Department, is happy
over what has happened since
club members started running a
year ago.
With several members past the
100 mile mark, they were award
ed certificates, Chevrette pointed
out.
“But they needed an incentive
after the first 100 miles to keep
them going,” he added.
Chevrette explained that a
‘chevron’ award to the original
certificate will be given for every
additional 100 miles. He feels it
has helped.
“We badly need to run,” Chev
rette said. “We are a nation of
sitters, getting everything done
for us!"
week, averaging 10 miles weekly
this includes a 30-minute exercise
period.
If he does not exercise, then
he doubles his mileage. He aver
ages three or four miles an hour.
He is a ‘running public rela
tions firm for us’ Chevrette said.
Liccioni believes running makes
“everything better” for him.

Tessie Named
To Who’s Who
Chevrette admits it’s a bit hard
keeping up with all runners in
the program since “they run at
all hours, day and night.” But
officially the club lists 266 jog
gers who have chalked up over
8,000 miles since October, 1967.
One of the club’s most avid
advocates is Dewey Liccioni who
has passed the 450 mile mark on
