Curl Gets Award In News Contest Tom Curl of San Juan, junior agricultural journalism student here won honorable mention in the first monthly contest of the William Randolph Hearst Found ation’s ninth annual national journalism awards program. Curl, staff writer for The Bat talion, won the contest judges’ praise for coverage of an Oct. 24 Student Senate meeting in which university officials explained the proposed automated registration system. The son of Mr. and Mrs. Rob ert L. Curl attended Pan Ameri can College at Edinburg before transferring to Texas A&M. 2-Way Stop Sign Added To Ross-Ireland Corner Aggies did a double-take Mon day morning at the corner of Ross and Ireland to the tune of a campus security officer’s whistle plus a red and white “STOP” sign. Many Aggies including facul ty, staff and students did what came naturally at the intersec tion. They simply ignored the new traffic device erected during the weekend on Ross, making the intersection a four-way stop. One driver, asking to remain anonymous, chuckled, “It’s hard to stop after 20 years.” The stop sign was erected after an electronic control signal was placed on Farm-Market Highway 60 and Ireland, said Assistant Security Chief Morris A. Mad dox. Maddox observed “more and more people” are using Ireland because it permits faster exit from the campus, and create/ more pressure on the Ross and Ireland intersection. “It’s going to take time for people to get use to it,” added Maddox. Maddox pointed out security personnel will be on duty at Ross and Ireland “during peak traffic periods” at 8 a.m., noon, 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. to help ease traffic congestion. He noted, too, the erection of the stop sign will help ease a “little speed problem” which has prevailed along Ross since the street had been “wide open from Spence to North Gate.” Riflemen Beat TU Texas A&M defeated Texas twice last weekend, the Aggie rifle team adding a victory to the fish football team’s 14-13 Friday win. Aggie riflemen maintained sec ond place in the Southwest Rifle Association by outshooting the University of Texas at Austin 1,310 to 1,258. Team captain Chris West of San Antonio fired 278 and Bill Hundley of San Antonio scored 269 out of 300 possible. Pat Bailey of Trona, Calif., and Wayne Jordan of New Boston each shot 257 and Tom Mayes of Fort Worth scored 249. BONFIRE (Continued From Page 1) after 11 p.m., Segner said, pickup trucks were sent out to bring in second, third, and fourth stack logs. The pickups will be used in addition to the trucks already in use. “If the pickups and large trucks can keep the loading crews busy all night,” Segner noted, “they’ll be out there.” The final total for the fund to purchase the hunters’ lease on the cutting area is $1,098.67, ac cording to Jo Scanlin, assistant building cashier at the Memorial Student Center. She noted that some of the surplus money, that amount over $800, would be used for extra Bonfire expenses. Any left over will be given to Campus Chest. Segner explained that some of the extra money was required for maintenance costs. “Already on one truck,” he said, “we’ve had to install a new clutch and alternator, and we’ve had to weld the frame back to gether. The communications end of Bonfire has been handled this year by the Memorial Student Center Radio Committee, as usual. Members have manned radios in the cutting and stacking areas, in addition to station W5AC, lo cated in the MSC. Citizens’ Band operators have also been helping with communications within the cutting area. “All in all,” he concluded, “we’re real pleased with the way things are shaping up. We are especially pleased with the low injury rate this year. Everyone is really put ting out and everyone is being careful. This should be a great Bonfire.” (Eaj&uwM (EJnkuhjanjvt For Complete Insurance Service Dial 823-8231 Ray Criswell, Sr.; Ray Criswell, Jr. “Insure Well With Criswell” 2201 S.
