Radar Unit On Campus
WASHINGTON —Sen. George
McGovern’s top aides learned
that Thomas Eagleton had been
hospitalized for exhaustion even
before the Missouri senator was
selected as the vice-presidential

sociated Press disclosed Tuesday.
NEW YORK — For the first
time in its 44-year-history, the
Dow Jones average of 30 indus
trial stocks, Wall Street’s most-
watched stock market barometer,

mark.
The figure was 1,003, a gain

counsels against hasty action to
remove the Democratic party
chairwoman.
He said Tuesday the Demo
cratic party is an unnatural, un
stable coalition, and the country
would benefit if his defeat for
the presidency leads to broad par
ty realignment.

and continue this for one week
before enforcing fines.
Upon start of the patrol or at
the fixed set point the ‘gun’ must
be checked with a special tuning
fork calibrated at 50 miles-per-
hour before use.
The unit may be used in two
basic methods of operation, either
as a hand held instantaneously
ready doppler radar or as a fixed
doppler radar for continual moni
toring of traffic.
Two basic conditions need be
met in either case. The first be
ing that the officer has observed
the suspected vehicle as a prob^
able speeding violation and the
second that a stable radar reading
be obtained on that vehicle.
A stable radar device reading
is described as a leading consis
tent with the action of the ve
hicle being observed when that
vehicle is nearest the radar de
vice. The reading may be locked
in and held for the period of time
necessary to establish that rela
tionship.
The unit is simply aimed at the
suspected speeding vehicle and
reads accurately the speed of the
car, whether it decreases or in
creases.
Chief Luther said he would be
happy to show students how the
unit operates, particularly when
they have been stopped for a vio
lation.

his
story.
Editor:
The relevancy of life has be
come a major topic these days.
Colleges themselves are leaders
in the movement to make life
more meaningful, and realistic.
It is becoming increasingly evi
dent that A&M people are not all
farmers.
In view of this fact, I move
that A&M University folks con
sider calling themselves the
“RUSTLERS.”
Now that’s an honest title!
Viva Bevo!

Editor:
Three cheers for the Aggie
steer-ropers.
I see by the papers that they
caught a scrubby stray called
Bevo in their fall round-up. The
shaggy, unwashed nesters down
on the Colorado River, having no
sense of humor, got all stirred up
and threatened to call out the
rangers!
It seems a shame that the folks
at Austin can’t take a real Aggie
joke!

“An endorsement of Plan B or
C may or may not become law,
since it would have to go through
channels all the way to the Board
of Directors,” said the letter.
The bicycle registration plans
are based on an approximate
2,600 bicycles per year. Nine hun
dred fifty-five of these bicycles
are in the academic area at one
time according to a survey con
ducted by the Texas Transporta
tion Institute.
The remaining number is the
average number of bicycles in
the dorm areas as figured by the
Senate.
The Senate also put out a fact
sheet about bicycles which includ
ed the following information:
During the 1971-72 school year,
192 bicycles were stolen on the
A&M campus and only 100 were
recovered by Chief Luther’s of
fice. Improper identification was
the primary reason for the rest
of the bicycles not being recov
ered.
The cost of registration is ap
proximately 40 cents for the tag.
The original $3 fee was estab
lished by the University Traffic
Panel.
It is estimated that 1.5 to 1.7
spaces are needed for every bicy
cle on campus. (This was report
ed to the Traffic Panel by Don
Woods, chairman.)
ST. LOUIS—The acting direc
tor of the FBI said Tuesday that
the controversial decision to
shoot out the tires on a hijacked
Southern Airways jetliner in Flo
rida was his decision.
“I made the decision to abort
the flight with the full concur
rence of Southern Airways,” act
ing Director L. Patrick Gray
said.
Thousands of families were
evacuated with the aid of Na
tional Guardsmen in two states
Tuesday after wind-whipped
waves and heavy rain drenched
the shorelines of Lakes Erie and
Huron.
