Exchange Store
(Continued from page 1)
The only price the student will
be able to read will be on the
shelf where the books are kept.
The exchange store has run
into some unusual problems from
both students and competing
merchants off campus. Cargill
said the students don’t under
stand the store’s policy for buy
ing used books.
“A used book is bought by the
store at 50 per cent of the new
book price and then it is sold at
75 per cent of the new book
price,” Cargill said. “We do this
if the book is still going to be
used.
"If the book isn’t going to be
used, then we certainly can’t buy
it back because we would take a
loss. There are four wholesale
companies which put out cata
logues listing the prices they will
pay for books that are no longer
used. We buy the books at whole-
prices and we get a five per cent
commission.
"Another thing which is hard
for a student to accept is when
a student in front of him sells a
used book exactly like his for
five dollars and then we buy his
for 50 cents,’’ he said.
“We do this because we can’t
buy books for resell if it is going
to exceed the estimate of the
number of students the profes
sors expect to have. So when we
reach that number we stop buy
ing used books for resell and
start buying them to sell to the
wholesale companies,” Cargill
said.
The store, which was started
1907 and was housed in the
Old Main Building, has come un
der attack several times by com
peting merchants off campus.
One of their main arguments is
that certain lines of merchandise
shouldn’t be sold in the store
since they are not essential to the
student’s education.
“There has been one time since
I’ve been here that we’ve been
compelled to discontinue selling
something,” Cargill said.
“When I first came here I add
ed suits to our inventory and we
were selling a lot of them. Then
somebody went to a state legis
lator and got him to stop us from
selling the suits.”
Cargill explained that it is
necessary to carry these high-
mark up items in order to make
a profit since it is not possible
to do it selling books. He said
they only make an 18% profit
on the books and the store has
to sell these other items to stay
in business.
Cargill added that “by main
taining the manufacturer’s and
publisher’s recommended selling
prices we can be sure that we
are not taking unfair advantage
of free enterprise in the sur
rounding community. We are a
self-supporting business.”
An unusual trait of the Ex
change Store is the use of the
profits they make. After all op
erating costs are paid, the prof
its are plowed back into student
activities and organizations.
“We gave $12,705 in 1959
when contributions by the store
were started and in 1969-70 we
gave $30,000 to 89 organizations
including the Singing Cadets, the
Civilian Student Council, and the
band. Over the years we have
given a total of $293,607,” Car
gill said.
Softball game
opens up coed
intramurals
Coed intramural athletics has
been organized with the first
event in the program played
Tuesday evening.
A girls’ intramural softball
game at the diamond near the
Grove opened the program, an
nounced Raymond L. Fletcher,
intramurals director with the
Health and Physical Education
Department.
He said girls’ bowling, tennis
and golf are organizing now with
participation to begin in the near
future.
Originally planned for initia
tion this fall, the women’s intra
murals program will eventually
parallel the one conducted for
male students. Cooperating in
establishing the program is IV^rs.
Patricia Self, University Women
counselor of the student affairs
office.
“The coed program is sort of
small this summer, as is the rest
of the program,” Fletcher said.
“But it’s a step forward and we
expect a large number to par
ticipate.”
“Since it’s new, the program
will take a little time to really
get rolling,” he added, estimating
two semesters as the minimum
organization time.
Instructors to attend annual confab
Seven instructors from the
Texas Firemen’s Training School
will attend the 94th annual State
Firemen’s and Fire Marshals’
Conference in San Antonio Mon
day through Thursday.
Chief instructor Henry D.
Smith noted his men will conduct
workshops during the convention
for the three one-week training
schools set in July and early
August.
Smith will be assisting the
Firemen’s Training School vice
chairman in presenting the an
nual report and other matters
regarding the association’s co-
operation with A&M.
Instructors coordinating FTS
workshops include John R. Rauch,
fire marshals’ programs; Tom
Robinson and W. B. Dorman, fire
fighting; Jack Sneed, combined
operations; David White, pump
operations and maintenance, and
Buddy McDowell, rescue and
campus programs.
Smith said approximately 1,500
Texas firemen will attend the
Hilton Placio del Rio programs.
The annual fire training schools
start July 19 with the one-week
municipal school. Following are
the industrial school July 26-31
and Spanish school Aug. 2-7.
