BATTALION Friday, December 10, 1971 College Station, Texas Page 3 Black judge says racial division deep in Houston LuSTON <£*> — a black do nations court judge has jged concern that Mayor ,e Welch may not accurately j the feeling of the black iiiiinity as a result of Tues- /j c ity election. Jjjjge Andrew Jefferson, the t black to be named to such |»urt position in Texas, said J division in Houston is deep- jtlian ever imagined. Il'elch won an unprecedented fifth consecutive two-year term Tuesday by defeating Fred Hof- heinz although Hofheinz received about 96 per cent of the black vote. J efferso n,_in a Wednesday night speech, said he hopes Welch will not interpret his victory as a license to isolate the black com munity nor turn his back on it. Welch later answered the judge by blaming “propaganda distrib uted by my opponent and the black newspapers for four months.” ‘This was the most divisive thing we have ever had,” Welch said. “They represented that the No. 1 sport of the police is beat ing black people over the head. This was all a blatant effort to build a liberal political machine.” Welch said it is going to take the best effort of City Hall, in cooperation with the black lead ership, to allay such fears and akistan says they might iccept U. N. cease fire call I UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. LP) | Pakistan informed Secretary- Leral U Thant on Thursday jit it accepts the cease-fire call [the General Assembly “subject I a call for U.N. observers on i aides.” |The assembly called on India Pakistan Tuesday night to ier an immediate cease-fire and Jrithdraw their troops to their i territories. | Pakistani Ambassador Agha ii met with Thant to deliver |written response to the assem- 'ifi call, embodied in a resolu- carried 104 to 11, with 10 xntions. Pakistan also expressed disap pointment that the assembly did not condemn India in its resolu tion. Pakistan had asked for observ ers before the outbreak of fight ing but India opposed such a move. Many delegates expect that U.N. efforts to stop the war soon will shift from the assembly back to the Security Council. Some delegates expressed be lief Thursday that Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, new deputy prime minis ter and foreign minister of Pak istan, would ask to address the council. He is due to arrive in New York Friday for the an-< nounced purpose of heading the Pakistani delegation. TAMU grads honored by AF J Recognition of outstanding job rformance has been given two JIM graduates serving in the IS. Air Force. I First Lt. Robert J. Foley of irland will participate in the ■ategic Air Command’s Combat [mpetition, the “world series of mbing and navigation,” at Mc- [iy AFB, Fla. I Co-pilot of a B-62 bomber crew pom the 7th Bomb Wing at swell AFB, Foley was selected *r careful screening. Foley commanded the Ross Volunteers at TAMU, studied economics and was in Squadron 10. He was graduated in 1969. Second Lt. David L. Brusse 1971 graduate from College Sta tion, was named outstanding of ficer of the quarter in his under graduate pilot training class at Laughlin AFB. He was a finance major and Company K-2 member. Brusse’s father is a research as sociate in TAMU’s Research and Instrumentation Shop. The delegation would say noth ing about Bhutto’s plans. But even if he should not want the council to meet, there were coun cil members who said it should do so in the next few days if the war continued. The Security Council passed the war issue on to the General Assembly Monday night after the Soviet Union had vetoed two reso lutions calling for a cease-fire and withdrawal of troops. The assembly, free of any veto, adopted a cease-fire and with drawal resolution Tuesday night. Unlike the Security Council, the assembly has no procedures for enforcing such a resolution. The assembly asked Secretary- General U Thant to keep both assembly and council informed of the outcome of the resolution, and called upon the council “to take appropriate action.” After the vote, Shahi ruled out any negotiations with “secession ist elements” in East Pakistan. India is backing the East Pakis tani rebels, who have been fight ing Pakistan’s army since March. Indian Ambassador Samar Sen reiterated Thursday that India would not be deflected from its present course, which is moving its army deeper into East Pakis tan. He told a reporter, “India’s survival is at stake.” show that such propaganda is false. “I am going to dedicate myself to it,” Welch said. Jefferson said he hopes Welch will reestablish lines of com munication the mayor began building when he first took office in 1964. Welch received strong black community support in his 1964 campaign. “I hope he would consider the appointment of members of the black and brown communities who are in touch with the peo ple and who would honestly re port to the mayor the interests and concerns of those communi ties,” said Jefferson. “Otherwise he will completely isolate 5 per cent of Houston’s population,” he said. Jefferson said he was not criti cizing the mayor. “I just hope the mayor will try to bind up the wound and won’t overlook the opportunity and the obligation to work together for the good of the community,” he said. Police Chief Herman Short was a major issue in the campaign, Jefferson said. Short’s attend ance at a recent dinner honoring Alabama Gov. George Wallace “shows we are in deep trouble,” he added. “When the police chief can occupy a prominent place at a public gathering for Wallace, we are in deep trouble,” Jefferson said. “Whatever Short’s purpose, he was there as chief cf police. Wherever he goes, he is chief of police.” Short said he attended the din ner on a personal, not a political basis, in that he has known Wal lace since 1967. Short said Thursday his per sonal business should not be any concern of the judge. “I wonder what he thought about my attending President Tito’s of Yugoslavia dinner when he was here last month,” Short said. “I’m not the subject of the whim and personal beliefs of anybody.” Jefferson said, “We are better off and worse off in the area of human relations” as a result of the election. “We are better off because peo ple like Leonel Castillo, Judson Robinson Jr., and the CGS (Citi zens for Better Schools) ticket were elected,” he said. “We are worse off because the line between the races in this community is deeper than ever imagined.” Castillo defeated veteran in cumbent Roy Oakes for city con troller. Robinson, a real estate dealer, became the first black ever to be elected to the City Council. The liberal Citizens for Good Schools ticket won all three of the school board positions on the 1971 ballot. The winners were David Lopez, Dr. Herman Bar nett, a black physician, and Mrs. Karl Kamrath, wife of a promi nent architect. When the three school board winners take office Jan. 10 the liberals will control all seven positions on the board that su pervises operations of the na tion’s sixth largest independent school district.

The court, however, up held the prison system’s method of solitary confinement and was generally complimentary of the Texas prison system. The majority opinion of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals was by Judge Homer Thornberry and Joe M. Ingraham. However, former Chief Judge Elbert Tuttle of Atlanta wrote a lengthy dissent in which he said the severity of solitary confine ment should be lessened. On the question of legal aid, the majority noted that the TDC is making efforts to comply with legal requirements but may not have gone far enough. NSF awards $488,000 grant The National Science Founda tion has awarded a $488,000 grant for 1972 support in oper ating the R/V Alaminos, the in stitution’s largest oceanographic vessel. Announcement of the award was made by Sen. John Tower. Dr. Richard A. Geyer, head of A&M’s Oceanography Depart ment, noted the NSF funds for helping operate the 180-foot ves sel in 1972 represent an increase of approximately 70 per cent over the agency’s allocation for the current year. The NSF grant this year totals $278,000. The Alaminos is used for a va riety of long-duration cruises in the Gulf of Mexico and Carib bean. A&M, the state’s only in stitution with deep sea-going capabilities, operates seven other vessels, including three other craft assigned to the Oceanogra phy Department. The court added that the bur den of justifying its regulation against inmate legal assistance is placed on the state. It said until the state can show it pro vides a reasonable alternative, the state must allow prisoners to help one another with their legal pursuits and must restore any “good time” taken away from prisoners for prior violations of the regulation against such aid. Judge Tuttle agreed with the majority on the question of le-< gal aid, but said he was con vinced that “this record affirma tively shows that the TDC has not supplied a reasonable altern ative.” Congratulations to Dick & Bill From Bill & Dick “Well Done” BUSIER -JONES AGENCY REAL ESTATE • INSURANCE F.H.A.—Veterans and Conventional Loans FARM & HOME SAVINGS ASSOCIATION Home Office: Nevada, Mo. 3523 Texas Ave. (in Ridgecrest) 846-3708 SELECTED GROUP OF CLOTHING REDUCED OFF REGULAR PRICE COATS Reg.
