    ^ Texas Prison Head Slams
IRS Recent Crime Statistics
AUSTIN (•#*) — Texas’ prison
population has remained steady
the past few years, and the man
who runs the prisons says he has
no confidence in statistics that
show a booming crime rate.
Dr. George Beto was asked
Thursday at a House Appropria
tions Committee hearing on the
pristfn budget how he accounted
for the static inmate population
in the face of increasing crime.
“I am not convinced that crime
is increasing so fast,” Beto said.
“I don’t have any confidence in
these statistics. I don’t think
there’s been the increase in crime
that they are crying about.”
THE NUMBER of inmates has
remained at about 12,500 for sev-

eral years, he said.
He attributed the mounting
crime figures to better crime
reporting.
On another subject, Beto said
“We are more concerned today
than we ever have been” about
drugs.
“We are noticing more and
more young people from middle
class families convicted of crimes
associated with drug addiction,”
he said.
There are drug problems with
in the walls, he said.
“VISITORS attempt to drop it
off on Sundays. ... We don’t
allow inmates to have nasal in
halers because they can cut them
up and boil them in water and get
a life out of them. ... We had to
stop inmates from making model
airplanes because of the glue,”
Beto said.
He said under questioning from
Rep. Oscar Carrillo of Benavides
that “It may be that we need
some Spanish teachers” for Mex-
ican-American inmates, whom he
said make up 20 per cent of the
prisoners.
BETO complained that some
state college business managers
are not following the law that
requires them to buy dormitory
mattresses from the prison fac
tory. He said they claim they are
not using tax money but are
spending funds collected from
dormitory fees, meals and ath
letic event tickets.
This is “worth investigating,”
said Rep. J. E. Ward, Glen Rose.
WIGGLING HUBBY THROUGH COLLEGE
Jennifer Albrig-ht, 19, a part-time belly dancer, performs
at private parties in Bangor, Maine, to earn money to help
her husband through Bangor Theological Seminary. Stephen,
who always attends the performances, says proudly Jenny
is a ball of fire. Beside dancing, she keeps busy cooking
gourmet meals for her husband, training as a telephone
operator, waiting on tables at a restaurant, and taking a
night course at University of Maine. (AP Wirephoto)

noted yesterday in her announce
ment, may be obtained by writing

She added that the applications
should be returned to her by Feb.

ing expenses will be paid by the
AFS. This program gives those
involved a chance to participate
in a program whose goals are
mutual respect, understanding,
and peace among the peoples of
the earth.”

What’s so exciting
about working at
Dallas Power & Light?
Listen to what these Dallas Power & Light engineers have to say.
John Dittmar, BSME, New Mexico State
University, Class of ’68. “At DP&L your en
gineering ideas are accepted and evaluated.
Another thing, I progressed at my own
speed, not at a predetermined step the com
pany had set. DP&L has doubled in growth
approximately every 10 years. If you’re will
ing to accept responsibility, you can’t help
but grow with the company.”
Lynn Blackwell, BSEE, Louisiana Polytech
nic Institute, Class of ’68. “I was impressed
with the ability and willingness of DP&L
engineers to help the younger engineers. I
was assured of receiving responsible assign
ments and I’m especially proud of the re
sponsibility I’ve already been given in the
operation of the underground distribution
network of downtown Dallas.”
John Finneran, Master of Engineering, Texas
A&M University, Class of ’68. “The company
is not so large it overwhelms you, yet it is
large enough to offer excellent opportunity
for advancement. The company has shown
an interest in me, not only in my engineer
ing ability, but in what I, as a young engi
neer, think and feel.”
These are a few of the recently graduated engineers who have found out that
DP&L delivers what it promises. If you’re interested in challenge, opportunity,
responsibility and growth potential, we’d like to talk to you. DP&L representatives
will be on your campus FEBRUARY 18-19 Or write to Grant Whitt,
Personnel Department, Dallas Power & Light Company, 1506 Commerce Street,
Dallas, Texas 75201.
