Texans remained jailed Tuesday
in lieu of bonds totaling $525,000
on charges in what officials called
one of the largest marijuana sei
zures in the nation.
Federal, state and local author
ities arrested the six, including
a Houston couple, on Monday and
confiscated nearly a ton of mari
juana.
A federal narcotics agent es
timated its wholesale value at
roughly $250,000. Estimates on its
retail value covered a range of
prices in the hundreds of thou
sands of dollars.
Lt. Charles Doerr said the sei
zure was the largest in the city's
history and one of the largest in
the United States.
“We’re trying to find a place
to put it all,” said one federal
agent.
Those charged in the case in
cluded William Frederick Me-
Ginney, 33, and his wife, Peggy
Joyce McGinney, 32, both of
Houston, $75,000 bond and $25,-
000 respectively. Officers said

where 500 pounds of the mari
juana was seized from a car.
Also charged were Barbara Ann

(Across From Texas A&M)
A&M students have an out
standing record in repayment of
loans through the state-operated
Hinson-Hazlewood College Stu
dent Loan Act.
“Our students have an extra-
ordinarily low rate of delinquen
cy,” observed Robert G. . Cherry,
assistant to President Jack K.
Williams.
An August report on the pro
gram formerly known as the Tex
as Opportunity Plan (TOP) re
veals only 2.82 per cent of A&M
graduates are delinquent in loan
repayment.
Other participating colleges and
universities vary as high as sev
en to 19 per cent delinquent. Con
sistent high delinquency can lead
to an institution being dropped
from the program.
“A&M’s record is probably one
of the best in terms of total
loans,” commented Alvin P. Bor-
mann Jr., loan supervisor who
AS GREA T AS THE STA TEf
LILLY: Bryan!Commerce/Dallas
Houston/San Antonio/ Victoria
handles the program for A&M
loan officer Robert M. Logan.
Bormann said that since 1966
when the plan went into opera
tion, A&M has made 6,788 loans
totalling $2.6 million to 2.077 ac
tual borrowers. Under a new pol
icy, he noted, repayment begins
the 10th month after graduation
with up to 10 years to pay off
the note. A minimum monthly re
payment rate of $30 is required.
“Our former students do a
good job of taking care of their
obligations on loans,” Bormann
observed. “The rate indicates we
have a good type of student, an
honest one, who goes out and
holds up the image of A&M.”
It is important, he pointed out,
in that current students have lit
tle difficulty in obtaining loans
through the Hinson-Hazlewood
Act. Bormann added that so far
this fall, 587 applications for
$487,000 in loans have been proc
essed and sent to the state.
Bormann said much of the
credit for the Aggie rate is due
Mrs. Ann Vivero, student aid of
fice loan counselor.
