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.”
