THE BATTALION Wednesday, July 11, 1973 College Station, Texas Page 11 Shredded Money Poses Problem DEVALUED DOLLARS—Graduate student Bob Shar key ponders shredded money as Business Dean John Pear son and Program Coordinator Mrs. Della Marshall look on. What can you do with a barrel of money? That’s the problem confronting a select group of graduate stu dents enrolled in a new entrepre neurial science program offered by the College of Business Ad ministration. Their problem would be reduced considerably if the currency were in the form of crisp dollar bills. This particular supply, however, has been run through the highly efficient shredder of the Federal Reserve Bank. The feds are willing to part with these devalued dollars for $10 a ton, provided the purchaser doesn’t appear to be a “quick buck” artist. Dr. John E. Pearson, A&M’s business dean, passed the test and was allocated a half bale which he promptly placed in a special room called the “storm bam.” No one is allowed in the storm barn except the entrepreneurial science students. They go there “to brain storm ideas.” If they can’t get inspired by the barrel of money, there are other items around to challenge their ingenuity. For example, hanging from the ceiling is a set of “Clackers,” serving as a constant reminder that 47 tons of the onee- popular toy are available almost for the asking. The idea is to find a profitable use for what is normally regard ed as useless. In the case of the shredded money, Dean Pearson became interested after learning the predominate utilization to date has been adding it to drilling mud in oil explorations. Creativity is the key word in describing the business program, believed to be the only one of its kind in the nation. “The best we can hope for is to bring creativity out in our stu dents,” Dean Pearson observed. “You can’t teach it.” The Church..For a Fuller Life..For You..

They wanted to be sure the President could never halt the processes of democratic government by delaying legislation. And the phrase “Sundays excepted” shows that our Founding Fathers also respected Sunday as the day of the Lord. To them, it seemed natural to safeguard their freedom and pro fess their faith all in one sentence. The document they produced has weathered two hundred years —their faith almost two thousand. Both their Constitution and their creed—the Christian faith—are just as vibrant and important today. Make Sundays an exception to your daily routine—Go to Church!

Students selected for the pro gram are just as likely to have had basic formal education in sci ence or engineering as in business administration. In addition to finding new uses for seemingly useless materials, the students also are challenged to create new products or serv ices. Thus confronted, an earlier group of graduate students ex plored the design and marketing possibilities for a more effective maternity girdle — an endeavor dubbed the “Prenatal Cradle Company.” The project has ad vanced to the toddler stage. Auto Insurance Rates Predicted To Drop Again AUSTIN—Annual public hear ings to determine auto insurance rates were held here this week amid predictions that premiums will drop again this year. Insurance Board Chairman Joe Christie expressed hope that evi dence will bring a reduction for insurance buyers in most of Texas’ 40 statistical rating ter- Joggers Run Saturday Joggers and runners will beat the heat Friday. They will also get an hour head start on the day through a “Sum mer Jog” at A&M. Dr. John Chevrette of the Health and Physical Education Department said the “Summer Jog” will consist of three and five-mile runs. It begins at 7 a.m. at G. Rollie White Coliseum. Any one can participate. Chevrette stressed that the events are non-competitive. The jog will be at the individual’s own pace. Students, faculty-staff and friends of A&M plan to take part. A social for participants will be held Friday evening at Chev- rette’s home in Harvey. Hill Files Suits To Recover Gas Market Value Atty. Gen. John Hill has filed 14 more suits to recover full market value of royalty gas pro duced from state lands. The first such suit was filed May 18 against Exxon Corporation. The state contends it is not limited by long term contracts, nor to any regulated ceiling prices promulgated by the Fed eral Power Commission. Defendants, according to state allegations, are selling gas at about 20 cents per 1,000 cubic feet, or less, while the market value is around 45 cents per 1,000 cubic feet. Suits now filed cover about 80 per £ent of all lease contracts involving gas royalties, Hill said. ritories. This year’s hearing was con ducted against a backdrop of new legislation and a price freeze which applies to insurance as well as the usual review of accident frequency, claim cost and infla tionary factors. Laws which must be considered are comparative negligence, re peal of the guest statute, personal injury protection and the new deviation or competitive rating plan. Texas Safety Association will also ask additional credit for per sons completing the defensive driving course. Board rules now allow a 10 per cent reduction in auto insurance rates for those certified as having taken the course. Meanwhile, House Insurance Committee Chairman Rep. Ben Bynum of Amarillo predicted the average premium will drop 10 to 15 per cent when the new rates are set this fall. Competitive rates may mean drops of as much as 20 to 30 per cent for drivers with good safety records, Bynum said. “Nobody can definitely state what the final rates will be until the statistics and the impact of new insurance laws are weighed in detail after the hearing,” said Christie.
