A Southwest Concerts Production (Art Squires, Executive Produceri Agnew’s Request Refused by House WASHINGTON (AP) — Speaker Carl Albert has rejected for the time being any House action on Vice President Spiro T. Agnew’s request for an investigation of charges he was involved in poli tical corruption in Maryland. That left a federal grand jury in Baltimore as the only forum ischeduled to hear evidence on the allegations against Agnew. Atty. Gen Elliot L. Richardson has ordered the panel to begin hearing that evidence Thursday morning. Albert announced his decision on Agnew’s request in a state ment Wednesday afternoon. “The vice president’s letter re lates to matters before the courts,” the statement said. “In view of that fact, I, as speaker, will not take any action on the letter at this time.” He refused to elaborate or answer questions. Agnew’s surprise request for the House investigation was made in a letter the vice president hand delivered to Albert Tuesday. The vice president was on Cap itol Hill Wednesday for lunch with 10 liberal Republican sena tors and told newsmen he had every intention of staying in of fice. “I want to make it very clear that I am not resigning,” he said. Agnew also said he would hold a news conference at some future point, but did not say when. Agnew also was asked about news reports that he and his at torneys had engaged in plea bar gaining with the Justice De partment and a report that he had offered to resign in return for a reduction or dismissal of char ges. Parks, Recreations Takes on Goodwin Have you wondered about the noise and sight of construction activity at Goodwin Hall? It is part of a “crash” remodeling project to help put new life into the old decaying building. The project seems relatively minor standing next to the mas sive and spectacular J. Earle Rudder Conference Center. Yet, the interior construction taking place in Goodwin Hall is different and very timely. Goodwin Hall was doomed for destruction after the Oceanogra phy and Meteorology Depart ments vacated in favor of their present new facility. However, acute classroom shortage coinci dental with TAMU’s rapid growth prompted some faculty and ad ministrators to help grant a stay of execution for the building. Dr. Leslie Reid and his entire Parks and Recreation Department needed a new home. Dr. Reid said that, “basically we were con cerned with getting additional classroom space and fast. Our past facility, popularly referred to as the Horse Barn, just became inadequate for our increased stu dent enrollment.” The renovation of Goodwin Hall has taken on a “home proj ect” flavor. Dr. Reid acknowl- A L. LiE N Oldsmobile Cadillac SALES - SERVICE “Where satisfaction is standard equipment” 2401 Texas Ave. 823-8002 edged that “the building was really in bad shape when we got the okay to start planning the move.” Administrators decided that the structural condition of the building did not justify a major and expensive face lift. The objective became to make the place livable and yet keep cost^ at a minimum. “Essentially we are trying to add at least five years more useful life to the building,” Reid explained. Logan Council, director of the physical plant, concluded his de- pai’tment could make the renova tion of Goodwin Hall presentable, comfortable and yet not prohibi tively expensive. He and Dr. Reid decided to work with the exciting floor plan and configura tion thus avoiding major rework. “An outside contractor would find it difficult to compete on this job,” Council noted. “We take a personalized handyman approach whereas the contractor must work to rigid specifications. Preparing specifications for a project of this nature would be a nightmare.” Some of the basic improvements include: improved wiring and lighting, additional air condition ing, painting, new flooring, acous tical ceilings and installation of low cost particle board paneling. The basement section was taken over by 40 parks and recre ation research and graduate as sistants. In true “do it yourself” spirit, they fixed and painted their own study area. Reid is highly complimentary for the efforts of General Alvin Luedecke, TAMU executive vice president, and Logan Council, physical plant director. “Without their active assistance, the project just would not have jelled and become so successful,” he con cluded.

Mark O. Hatfield, R-Ore., host for the luncheon, told a re porter later that the senators met with Agnew for more than an hour and that no one in the group believed Albert’s rejection of Agnew’s request was final or ir revocable. Meanwhile, the White House said President Nixon had neither (encouraged nor pressured Ag new to take any particular course in responding to or fighting the graft allegations against him. Deputy White House Press Secretary Gerald L. Warren said he believed it would be improper for the White House to comment on Agnew’s choice of methods for fighting the graft allegations but added that Nixon “respects the vice president’s right and pri vilege to handly this in his own way.” On another matter, Warren said Nixon did not concur or need to concur in Richardson’s decision to take Justice Department evidence against Agnew to the federal grand jury in Baltimore.
