Just talking to them gives you the feeling of sitting in a sailboat with the wind blowing in your face. And it’s easy to talk to mem bers of the A&M Sailing Club. There are no restrictions on joining. “Anyone with an inter est in sailing or willing to learn can join,” says Rick Brisn coe, club president. “We have training sessions for beginners as well as for those who are well experienced in the art of sailing. Our primary goal is to teach and train our members for competi tion in intercollegiate sailboat racing.” Membership in the club is $5 a semester. There is an added cost for boat rentals. The rental fee for the club-owned Dolphins is $3 a day and for the 420s is $4 a day. Rental fees help pay for upkeep of the boats. The club has 50 members. It increases to about 100 during the summer months. “Membership is not limited to A&M students,” said Briscoe in a recent inter view. “Many of the members during the summer are families from the surrounding area.” Training sessions take place on the Municipal Lake on South Col lege Avenue or at Lake Sommer- ville. Several of the Dolphin Seniors are housed at the Muni cipal Lake while the larger 420s are docked at Lake Sommerville. The 14-foot Dolphins are used to teach beginners the funda mentals of sailing. The 420s with 18-year-olds can’t serve on juries, court decides two sails are used to train two- man crews for intercollegiate racing. Members compete against the University of Houston, Rice and the University of Texas in an intercollegiate sailboat regatta in the spring. The club also sends members to Louisiana to com pete in several regattas. The club meets on Thursday nights at 7:30 in room 105 of the Geology building. Their meet ings include discussions about course sailing techniques. Often movies or slides are used to demonstrate how to best take advantage of the wind. Most of the club’s activities take place on Sunday afternoons, weather permitting. Sailing is a year-round sport and no other sportsmen live as close to the weather and are more affected by it. AUSTIN, Tex. <A>) _ The con stitutional amendment that gave 18-year-olds the vote did not give them a right to serve on Texas juries, the Court of Crim inal Appeals ruled Wednesday. The court upheld the burglary conviction of Joe Shelby of Lub bock, 18, who sought a re-trial on grounds persons 18-21 were excluded from the jury that as sessed him five year’s imprison ment. Presiding Judge John F. On ion Jr. said that a state law lim iting jury service to persons 21 and over still applies. Shelby’s attorney said there was a conflict with a new law requiring county authorities to make up jury wheels from lists of registered voters. “We cannot agree that such a conflict exists,” Onion wrote for the unanimous court. “We find nothing in such stat utes to require the designated of ficials to ignore the qualifications of jurors . . . and to automatically include in the jury wheel all names on the voter registration list regardless of the official’s knowledge of lack of age, felony conviction, lack of citizenship, etc., on the part of an individ ual,” he said. Defense lawyers maintained that the 26th amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which gave 18- year-olds the right to vote, also gave them the right to serve. But the court disagreed. “Surely the states still retain the right to determine the qual ifications of the jurors to serve in its own courts and may place the burden of such public duty on certain age groups, even pro viding exemption, though not dis qualification, on account of age.” Industrial begins on Sunday Astronaut’s widow to end fire suit out CAPE KENNEDY, Fla. <2P) — The widow of Virgil L. Grissom, one of three astronauts killed in the 1967 fire in the Apollo 1 spacecraft, has agreed to a $350,- 000 out-of-court settlement of her $20 million suit against North American Rockwell Corp. and three subsidiaries, her attorney said Wednesday. North American Rockwell was prime contractor on the Apollo 1 spacecraft in which Grissom, Ed ward H. White II and Roger B. Chaffee were killed when a flash fire erupted in the cabin during a launch pad test Jan. 27, 1967. In a phone conversation from Houston, Tex., where Mrs. Gris som lives, her attorney, Ronald D.
