AUSTIN, Tex. (^—Spectators
got their money’s worth at the
state Capitol Thursday.
There was shouting, arm-wav
ing and dramatic oratory at both
ends of the old pink granite edi
fice.
When it was over:
—The Senate shouted down
two measures, including the first
of the House-approved reform
bills pushed by Speaker Price
Daniel Jr. Then for good meas
ure, the Senate delayed consider
ation of a measure to give 18-
year-olds full legal rights until
next week.
—The House, after long and
loud debate, approved a full blown
investigation of alleged irregular
ities at Prairie View A&M Col
lege, but voted down an effort to
abandon the state’s appeal of a
federal court ruling that set up
single-member House districts in
Two School Records Set
At Conference Swim Meet
Fort Worth—Two school rec
ords and several personal best
times highlighted first day ac
tion for the Texas Aggie swim
team at the Southwest Confer
ence swim meet Thursday.
On the plus side, A&M i-ecords
fell in the 500-yard freestyle and
200-yard individual medley.
Doug Meaden posted a 4:44.03
smashing the existing record in
the 500 by six seconds. He nosed
John Thordurn of SMU by .07
of a second for fourth place.
Steve Prentice captured the
200-yard individual medley with
a 2:01.20, breaking his old mark

by a tenth of a second. Prentice’s
performance was good for fourth
place.
Carl Yates posted a personal
best while taking ninth in the
500-yard freestyle in 4:56.2.
Steve Moore also swam his per
sonal best with a 2:02.67 for
eighth in the 200-yard individual
medley. Moore qualified in 12th
position but rallied up four places
in the consolation finals.
The heartbreaker for the Ag
gies came when Dan Sonnenberg
hit his hand on a turn during the
backstroke leg of the 400-yard
medley relay, splitting it between
the fingers. The accident cost
A&M three seconds and placed
them in the consolation finals
where they could finish no better
than seventh, even though they
beat the third place team of the
championship bracket by three
seconds.
“Sonnenberg’s accident really
hurt us,” said Coach Dennis Fos-
dick. “It was a freak thing.”
Sonnenberg’s status for today’s
action is in doubt but the 6’2”
junior said he would swim.
Another disappointment was
that no Aggie divers reached the
finals in the one-meter event.
Arkansas, who is now com
manding third place, scored 24
points to the Ags’ zero in diving
and posted a 70-47 lead over
A&M.
“We will have to fight to get
third now,” said Fosdick, “We
have to catch Arkansas and get
a big enough lead so they won’t
pass us in the other diving
events.”
SMU leads the three-day event
with 170 points. Texas is second
at 153, then Arkansas and the
Aggies, Houston with 32, TCU
with 18 and Rice with 16.
Game Cancelled,
Reset Saturday
A&M’s baseball home opener
against Iowa State was postponed
yesterday due to inclement
weather.
The two teams are scheduled
to clash this afternoon beginning
at 1 p.m. on Kyle Field.
Yesterday’s cancelled games
have been rescheduled Saturday
with a doubleheader set at noon.
Starting pitchers in today’s
doubleheader will be Jackie Binks
in the opener and Bobby Falcon
in the second game.
On Saturday, Charlie Jenkins
and Clint Thomas are scheduled
for mound duty.
A&M will return to the dia
mond Tuesday hosting the Lamar
Tech Cardinals in a doubleheader.
Dallas and San Antonio.
Finally both houses agreed to
quit until 11 a.m. Monday.
Daniel said he was “disappoint
ed” by the Senate’s refusal to
take up the House-approved bill
to restrict the power of legisla
tive conference committees.
“I am not going to criticize the
lieutenant governor or the mem
bers of the Senate at this point.
I just hope they will act as soon
as possible after due deliberation.”
When the conference committee
limitation bill was offered in the
Senate, a dozen or more senators
jumped to their feet shouting ob
jection to immediate debate.
“I’ve got a motion,” said Sen.
Bill Moore, D-Bryan. “Let’s move
it to the bottom of the debate cal
endar.”
A Senate minority blocked an
attempt to debate the Senate pro
posal that would set up annual
legislative sessions and raise leg
islators’ pay from $4,800 to $15,-
000 a year. The vote was 23-8,
two votes short of the four-fifths
needed to suspend rules and clear
the way for debate.
There was considerable confu
sion in the Senate when another
Senate bill, giving 18-year-olds
the same legal rights as 21-year-
olds, was offered for debate. Only
four objections were recorded, and
debate began, but several mem
bers soon began asking why the
bill had been laid out.
“This is the bill that lets 18-
year-olds buy beer and whisky
legally,” said Sen. Tom Creigh
ton, D-Mineral Wells.
Sen. Don Adams, D-Jasper, pro
tested that he would have voted
against consideration of the bill
but he was outside the chamber
“getting my picture made with a
peanut fanner.”
Moore said he was outside get
ting his picture made with an
Indian chief.
Sen. A. M. Aikin, D-Paris, said
“This is just another reason why
we need to keep order in the Sen
ate and pay attention to what is
going on.”
An effort to postpone debate
to May 15 failed but a motion to
delay until March 5 passed easily.
House members approved the
resolution directing the speaker
to appoint a 12-member commit
tee to investigate “all aspects of
the problems of Prairie View
A&M College” by a 105-10 vote,
with 10 not voting.
“This was never intended to be
a witch hunt,” said Rep. Craig
Washington, D-Houston, one of
several black House members co
sponsoring the resolution. “Stu
dents are afraid at Prairie View.”
Reps. Bill Presnal, D-Bryan,
and Latham Boone, D-Navasota,
opposed the resolution, saying
that a grand jury should take
care of any wrongdoing, not the
House.
COMMANDER AND DEPUTY COMMANDER of
A&M’s 1973-74 Corps of Cadets will be Scott Eberhardt
of Dallas and Melvin P. “Slim” Noack of Walburg, near
Georgetown. Noack is the first Marine Corps officer candi
date selected for the corps’ two top leadership positions.
The Church..For a Fuller Life..For You..
Which describes your feelings?
Yes No_l could do more enjoya
ble things if I had the
time.
Yes No_l have a good occupa
tion and my supervisors
approve of my work, but
personally, I’m not satis
fied.
Yes No My realistic conception
of an ideal life is very
different from that which
I’m living now.
Did at least one question apply to you?
If so, it’s quite possible that you’re not get
ting the most out of life. Only you know the
reasons, but whatever they are, God can
help you.
Among many other things in the Bible,
He promises freedom and a new life to those
who sincerely seek it.
Why don’t you come to church this Sun
day and let Him know that you want to be
free of your chains?
To live a half-life when a full life is
available isn’t really like you.
Is it?
