Mrs. Maxwell W. Steel, presi dent of the National Council of State Garden Clubs, Inc., chal lenged the 125 participants from nine states to be more active in local environmental issues. “We do much more than work our gardens planting pe tunias," she said. “Now I happen to enjoy petunias, but our image should go far beyond flowers. We need to let people know what we are doing, how we think and what we can do,” the Huntington, Pa., resident said. Mrs. Steel suggested efforts be made to consolidate environment al efforts with other interest groups. She also emphasized a need to enlist young people. “Our youths are the ones who will have to hassle with the prob lems in the future,” Mrs. Steel said. Noting the efforts of the na tion’s garden clubs in the federal Highway Beautification Act, Mrs. Steel said the effectiveness of the bill has been chipped away by the opposition. Highway billboards continue to flourish, she continued. The bat tle for the environment and beau ty is never-ending, she added. Mrs. Steel said Mrs. Lyndon B. Johnson’s beautification program WHAT 40 DOLLARS A YEAR WILL DO FOR YOU— Especially designed for those in the 18-25 age group . . . today’s young college men & women . . . tomorrow’s business & professional leaders, with corresponding financial responsibilities, Provides $10,000 Initial Life Insurance Protection With Options To Purchase At Standard Rates Up To A Total Of $40,000 Additional Insurance At Various Future Required, In A Dates With No Evidence Of Insurability $50,000 Ultimate Life Insurance Estate For Further Information Call Flop Colson At Office: 823-5123 - Home: 822-4869 - 3006 E. 29th Bryan i. i,i ► ; r,rft irs •, “gave us a shot in the arm.” She reported the national council is making “big plans” to work in environmental areas. Other speakers at the opening of the two-day program spoke on light pollution, A&M’s Sea Grant Program efforts, engineering ap proaches to sea problems and recreation demands. John Watson of Dallas, consid ered the world’s leading author ity on outdoor lighting, said the American people are not aware of the light pollution that disturbs daily life. Floodlights on poles and hang ing on buildings he termed “warts” on the work of crafted architects and landscape de signers. His illustrations showed what he called “ugly daylight stands” for “nighttime pollution.” Known for his fairyland use of lights, Watson said poor lighting is one of the worst negative pol lution elements in every commun ity. He pointed out gasoline service stations are the “worst light pol luters in this country.” Watson said it’s time people became aware of poor lighting and the effect it has on the public. He added that beautiful light ing also can be security to the public. Dr. George W. Klontz, marine life veterinarian at A&M’s Col lege of Veterinary Medicine, said it is too late to call for industrial abatement because there is no way to stop industry from pro ducing what the public demands. “We already have too many laws and bureaucrats,” Klontz contended. People want plastic and cans, so industry meets the demand, he said. Dr. Klontz suggested solutions depend on public awareness, per sonal conviction and personal in volvement. The fish medicine expert re ported there has been no research evidence that pollutants directly kill fish. In the Houston Ship Channel, for examle, he noted most marine life cannot live be cause there is no dissolved oxygen in the water. These problems can be cured at the right price, he said. Supreme Court will decide if TV, radio must accept ads WASHINGTON (A 5 ) — The Su preme Court Monday agreed to decide whether radio and televi sion stations must accept some paid advertising on controversial public issues. Last August the U. S. Circuit Court for the District of Colum bia ruled that a total ban against editorial advertising violates the First Amendment. The Supreme Court acted Mon day on appeals filed by the Fed eral Communications Commission, Columbia Broadcasting System, American Broadcasting Co. and operators of WTOP radio and television here. The hearing will be held sometime next term. After last August’s lower court ruling, the FCC was ordered to “develop reasonable regulatory guidelines” to govern the sale of spot advertising time. On Jan. 24 the Supreme Court declined to stay the ruling. The FCC began to work on guidelines. But in today’s order the Supreme Court changed its mind on this point and blocked further compli- reached. Justice William O. Douglas dis sented. This notation, in itself, was unusual in that justices usu ally do not indicate publicly that they voted against the taking of a case by the high court. The dispute arose with a re quest by the Democratic National Committee for an FCC order com pelling broadcasters to sell time to “responsible entities” for “com ment on public issues.” In a re lated case, a group called Busi ness Executives’ Move for Viet nam Peace challenged WTOP radio’s refusal to provide for one- minute antiwar announcements. The FCC ruled for the broad casters 6 to 1. While stations may sell time if they wish, the FCC said, they are not required to do FOR BEST RESULTS TRY ance with the Appeals Court BATTALION CLASSIFIED ruling until a final decision is BATTALION CLASSIFIED DEADLINE 4 p.m. day before publication OFFICIAL NOTICE Official notices must arrive in the O t[ Student Publications before deadline p.m, of the day proceeding publicatio inior and Senior Economics majors ' !held Tuesday, March 14, at 4:00 p. m oom 108 Nattle Hall.
