For 1969-70
Sweetheart To Be Named Sunday
By Janie Wallace
The Aggie Sweetheart for 1969-
70 chosen from 14 finalists will
be named during the Baylor foot
ball weekend.
She will be officially introduc
ed at the SMU game Nov. 8.
The Texas Women’s University
students will be escorted to the
Cowsills show at Town Hall Fri
day night on a tour of the cam
pus, and to the Baylor game by
the members of the Sweetheart
Selection committee.
Candidates were screened by
photo elimination and by inter
view committees before becoming
finalists. All candidates are at
least sophomores and have a
grade point ratio of 1.2 or better.
“The girls are judged on every
thing: how they look and how
they act during the weekend,”
Ronald Adams, committee chair
man said.
The escorts are able to judge
the finalists in circumstances
ranging from a early morning
breakfast to midnight yell prac
tice.
“We usually present the Sweet
heart at the Corps trip to Fort
Worth or Dallas each year,”
Adams said, “but this year the
football schedule did not provide
a home game before the trip to
give the committee members a
chance to get to know each girl.”
The girls’ schedule for the
weekend is crammed with activi
ties. On Friday, the group will
eat at Duncan Dining Hall, attend
Town Hall at G. Rollie White
Coliseum, and go to midnight yell
practice. Saturday, they will tour
the campus on a hayride, tour
Sbisa Dining Hall, attend a steak
fry at Hensel Park, have a for
mal dinner, go to the game, and
attend a formal dance afterward.
They will attend special services
Sunday morning at All Faiths
Chapel.
The 1969-70 Sweetheart will be
announced Sunday afternoon in
the Assembly Room of the Memo
rial Student Center.

‘Dinny and Witches’ Opens
Wednesday for Last Week
Subdivision Plan Approved
By CS Zoning Commission
By Jay F. Goode
Battalion Staff Writer
A preliminary plan to develop
a ten acre subdivision east of
the new high school and north
of the west by-pass was approved
by the College Station Planning
and Zoning Commission Monday
night.
The commission adopted the
recommendation of the Plat Com
mittee calling for an additional
10 feet of utility easement on
the northeast side. The commis
sion also named the proposed
street through the subdivision
Guadalupe Drive.
Chairman Codie Wells asked
William D. Fitch of Area Pro
gress Corporation, the developer
of the site, if there should be a
temporary turn-around at the end
of Guadalupe, which ends 200
feet short of the west by-pass.
Fitch and City Planner Lee Roy
George agreed that, since the

street would serve only seven
homes, the turn-around would not
be necessary.
Commissioner Jim Gardner re
quested that another roster of
the city's personnel be printed.
The latest roster does not include
the names of the city planner,
Gardner said.
“It would be nice to have a
document showing that the city
has a planner if any proposals
are submitted to the (federal)
government,” Gardner said.
Wells noted that since no new
zoning requests have been sub
mitted to the commission, none
will be considered for the Nov. 3
meeting. Zoning requests must be
submitted 20 days prior to the
next meeting, according to a re
cent action of the commission.

“Dinny and the Witches,” by
William Gibson, opens again Wed
nesday for three more nights at
Guion Hall.
A satire on the nuclear age,
the Aggie Player production will
be performed Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday nights at 8 p.m.
“Dinny and the Witches” is the
story of a musician who was able
to stop time and take over the
world. Throughout the play he
attempts to achieve the perfec
tion that was lacking in the
world as he knew it. When he fi
nally achieves this perfection in
the girl he loves, the result is
somewhat different than he ex
pects.
The three witches, Zenobia, the
chief witch, Ulga, the death witch,
and Louella, the nit witch, are
the ones from whom the power
of the world is taken. Their job
is to get their power back and
carry out their assignment of de
capitating Dinny.
Amy displays the seven mortal
sins that make up all humanity,
one of which is selling her baby
for $1.98. She is the one Dinny
attempts to and achieves in mak
ing perfect.
In a play that is heavy in sat
ire and tragic overtones, Ben, a
blind man, is the only one who
holds a serious role. He is given
sight, sees the world, and wants
his blindness back. At a funeral
oration, he says, “I mean, who
wouldn’t sing a love song to the
world, at its worst, on the day
it died?”
In addition to humor and seri
ous thoughts, there are girls.
Dawn, Chloe, and Bubbles are
three ladies of the night who
want the world back the way it
was so they can start having a
good time again.
Admission for “Dinny and the
Witches” is $1.00.
CS United Chest Campaign
Extended to End of Month
The College Station United
Chest campaign to raise a record
$28,050 will be extended until
Nov. 1, announced United Chest
President Wesley Donaldson. He
noted current contributions total
$18,206.
Donaldson said the organiza
tion’s board of directors voted
Friday to continue the drive past
the original Oct. 1-18 schedule.
Campaign Chairman Bob Evans
pointed out the $18,206 collected
through Friday represents 64.9
percent of the goal.
While still slightly less than
two-thirds of the budget, Evans
observed that contributions have
been coming in steadily in recent
days. Earlier in the week, only
38.8 percent of the goal had been
achieved.
“I am still confident the citi
zens of College Station will pro
vide the necessary funds to sup
port the 16 charitable and civic
organizations to which we have
pledged support,” Evans empha
sized.
