ey, Kec M ^ rS- Mamzic were using abusive lan-
luage. Huss said he heard abusive lan-
uage and knew Chuck was using it, but
id not know if anyone else was as he was
ying to calm Chuck down.
HI Mrs. Mamzic was then allowed to make
a phone call but she said she did not know
jfjhe was under arrest. She sent Huss home,
Balled her lawyer and was then placed in
a cell.
I “I remember the jailer said, ‘Ma’am,
■you have to go in there and if you don’t,
|ve’ll have to pick you and throw you in
;there,’ ” said Mrs. Mamzic.
“I SCREAMED and cried all night,”
he continued, “because I thought they
yere beating up my son.”
She added that the persons in the cells
lext to her screamed obscenities all night
md “at least once someone went into the
ell next to me and had relations with her
the girl in the cell).”

County Sheriff J. W. Hamilton denied
that sexual relationships took place. “We do
not run a jail like that,” he said.
The following morning the two were
brought before Justice of the Peace Jess
B. McGee for arraignment.
“My mother was whispering to me that
together we had enough money to pay my
fine of $32.50,” said Chuck. “The J.P.
said ‘if you don’t shut up I’m going to
charge you with contempt of court.”
“They wouldn’t give my purse back to
pay the fine,” said Mrs. Mamzic, adding
that neither she nor her son were let out
of jail until her other son, Curtis, a Corps
freshman, showed up at the jail with some
money Mrs. Mamzic had in her motel room.
Mrs. Mamzic said the bail bondsman
showed up from nowhere and she posted a
$1,000 property bond to get herself out of
jail. “I wasn’t told I could have posted my
own,” she said.
Posting the bond cost Mrs. Mamzic $150.
“I never got a receipt for my bond,” con
tinued Mrs. Mamzic. “I didn’t want to sign
the bond because I didn’t have my glasses.”
Chuck said he was never read his rights
and his mother was not read her rights
until she went to the courtroom.
Dicky says the case is under investiga
tion by the county and the Mamzic’s have
called the FBI and the American Civil Lib
erties Union.
“THERE IS NO WAY in the word we
can get away with being brutal,” said
Dicky. “Any officer who would do some
thing like this degrades me and my fellow
officers.” We don’t have anything to hide.”
Huss said Chuck and his mother had not
really had that much to drink, a few beers
at a Fish Drill Team celebration and a
whiskey sour at Lakeview.
“I’m still on tranquilizers,” said Mrs.
Mamzic. “I can’t find an attorney in Bryan
because they don’t want to work with these
people. It’s the first time in my life that I
was ever ashamed I was born in Texas.”
Dr. John J. Koldus, vice president for
student services, said he was trying to re
main neutral and not overstep his boun
daries in the case but yet indicate to the
sheriff that he was concerned that any stu
dent be mistreated.

Mexican drug
laws jail many
Americans
MEXICO CITY <A>)_ There are
about 400 Americans in jail in
Mexico on drug charges, and the
number has increased steadily for
the past five months, a U. S. Em
bassy spokesman said Wednesday.
Mexican authorities can hold
people charged with drug traf
ficking violations for a year be
fore trying them.
Last Nov. 1, there were 337
Americans in Mexican jails on
drug charges, the embassy said.
The number rose to 363 by Feb. 1
and to 386 by March 1, according.
to the embassy.
An embassy spokesman said
the figure for April 1, still being
compiled, is expected to increase
again.
Mexico has been waging a con
certed anti-drug campaign for
several years. Some Americans
have been sentenced to as much
as 10 years in prison on drug
charges.

TAMU has many faces.
Everybody knows the main one
here, but to the typical College
Station Ag, Texas Maritime Acad
emy in Galveston is a stranger.
TMA, or The Moody College of
Marine Sciences and Maritime Re
sources, is located at the Mitchell
Campus on Pelican Island. Peli
can Island is just across a bridge
on the north side of Galveston.
There are only two buildings
on campus plus the T/S Texas
Clipper, the training ship where
the students live.
“We have about 90 students
now, including one girl,” said
Rear Adm. John W. Smith, super
intendent of the college. “Our
main claim to fame is that the
job market for our graduates is
tremendous.

Cook retires
William P. “Willie” Yeager re

Texas A&M University.
Yeager worked in the Food Ser

Award
Cadet Mike W. Phillips of Hart
was presented the Legion of Va

Achievement in Wednesday cere
monies.
The award recognized demon
strated academic and leadership
excellence.
It is made annually on a select
paration of about 150 million in
dividual meals at TAMU.
Yeager started working at Tex
as A&M in September, 1935, as a
kitchen helper. By 1943, he had
been promoted four times, to chief
cook. In 1946, the veteran TAMU
employee began work as chef and

place between two and three hun
dred people. These would be in
jobs that paid $14,000 a year for
shore duty and $20,000 at sea.”
The curriculum of cadets is
much longer than for students at
TAMU. Besides the regular nine
month school year, cadets must
go on a cruise in the summer
after their sophomore, junior and
senior years. Cruises last about
10 weeks and include visits to
ports all over the world.
Graduates receive a B.S. from
TAMU in marine engineering or
marine transportation and is
eligible to take a U.S. Coast
Guard examination for Third
Assistant Engineer or Third
Mate.
“We have sort of a Corps of
our own here,” said Smith. “They
are maritime cadets; they wear
uniforms. We don’t have a hair
restriction like the Corps at A&M,
but we do not permit long hair
either. I inspect them two or
three times a month.”
The cadets may apply for a
reserve commission in the Navy.
The college has a Naval Science
department consisting of four
officers and two chief petty offi
cers on active duty.
“It is entirely possible that we
can handle NROTC students from
College Station right here,” said
Smith. “We might be doing that
next year because there may be
NROTC students at A&M want
ing marine engineering or trans
portation degrees. This is the
only place where they can get it.”
SCONA preparations
SCONA, Student Conference on
National Affairs, is looking ahead
to its 20th year already.
John Nash, chairman, says the
SCONA executive committee is
seeking student input in choosing
a topic for the event next spring.
He asks interested students to
drop off suggestions at the SCO
NA cubicle in the Student Pro
grams Office in the Memorial Stu
dent Center. They can also be
phoned in at 845-1515.
A formal meeting to decide on
a topic will be held later this
year, Nash said.
Society banquets
A joint banquet of the two un
der-classmen honor societies will
be at 7 tonight at the Ramada
Inn.
Alpha Lambda and Phi Eta
Sigma, the freshman-sophomore
honor soroity and fraternity, will
host Dean Clifford Ransdell of
the College of Engineering at the
banquet.
About 400 people from the two
groups are expected to attend.
Awards given
As the old Senate members and
Memorial Student Center Direc
torate leave their posts and their
successors enter theirs, award pre
sentations are held.
At their annual year-end recep
tion Sunday, the Senate chose
John Tyler Outstanding Senator.
Meritorious Service Awards went
to senators Raiford Ball, Brad
Bryant and Tom Taylor. Dr. John
Koldus, vice-president for student
services, was chosen Outstanding
Administrator.
The members of Senate Execu
tive Committee were given espec
ially made plaques with Randy
Ross, outgoing president, receiv
ing a gold watch.
During their “24th Century”
theme banquet Monday, the MSC
awarded the Rountree Award for
meritorious service to T, Chet Ed
wards. The Lawrence Sullivan
Ross Award, the most coveted
MSC award, was not presented
this year.
