Reservoir provokes conflict
WU CAN LOVE MUSIC, AND
ALSO LOVE ANOTHER PER60N...
DID VOU
KNOW THAT?
The proposed Millican Reser
voir project provoked controversy
at College Station’s city council
meeting Tuesday.
The controversy involved the
residents directly affected by the
project and the city’s need for a
new water supply and aquatic
recreation area. The council’s ac
tion on the project included a
proposal to send two representa
tives to Washington, D.C. to com
municate the community’s ideas
on the reservoir to the proper con
gressional committee involved.
The council finally agreed to
ask Congress for $375-500,000
funding for the dam. A represen
tative from the Army Corps of
Engineers was asked to attend
the council’s next meeting April
22 to explain the entire project
as it now is set up.
To maintain their present profit
margins, the water and electricity
utility companies will be forced
to raise their current rates 16.7%
and 13.9%, respectively. The
council postponed any action on
the rate hike until Monday’s
scheduled meeting.
Another emotional issue was
the probable rise in utility rates,
affecting university housing as
well as all other city users.
Chinese present
The council also set up a com
mittee to consider what should be
done with the additional revenues
brought in by the hotel-motel tax.
The amount in question is esti
mated to reach approximately
$34-44,000 per year, one-sixth of
which must be spent by the coun
cil to benefit the city directly.

Cultural exchange is the pur
pose of the Chinese College Stu
dent Program which will present a
free theatrical presentation to
night at 8.
Ten student from Taiwan are
touring the western and southern
United States in an attempt to
share their culture with American
college students on a personal
level.
Sponsored by the Chinese Stu
dent Organization and the Human
Issue Discussion Group, the group
will perform on ancient Chinese
instruments, sing opera, have a
kung-fu presentation and show
classical Chinese costumes from
the six dynasties of China. They
will also lead the audience in song.
After the show, free refresh
ments will be available in Room
701 of the Rudder Tower. After
the refreshments, a 30 minute
panel discussion will be held fol
lowed by individual encounter of
the native Chinese students with
American students.
“The idea is to bring the Free
Chinese culture before Ameri
can students and their commun
ities to show that this culture is
worth preserving as part of the
free world heritage,” said Ray
Lieu, student coordinator for the
event.
The 10 students who are per
forming are part of the twenty
most outstanding university stu
dents from the thirty universities
of Taiwan. “All speak English
and are sponsored by the nation,”
Lieu said.
The Chinese Student Organiza
tion on campus is partially re
sponsible for bringing the group
although the Department of Ed
ucation in Taiwan lists TAMU
among its choices for students’
extended education and planned
the tour.
“We hope to spark interest in
both the student body and com
munity,” Lieu said.
“Mostly we’re interested in
bringing culture to the students
who might in turn ask for such
things as a Chinese language
course and in joining the student
organization.”
Pan-Am Week
m progress
The customary Pan-American
Week is in progress at A&M this
week.
Sports events will take place all
week with finals Wednesday
through Friday.
The weekend will bring the tra
ditional smorgasbord and folks
show at the Ramada Inn Ball
room. Later that night there will
be a formal dance with the pre
sentation of the sweetheart and
trophies being awarded.
The final event of the week will
be the Pan-American Mass at
St. Mary’s Catholic Church on
Sunday morning.
ENGINEERING, MATH AND
PHYSICS MAJORS
The Navy has a challenging field open to second semester juniors and all
seniors who are majoring in engineering, math and physics. The Navy is
looking for highly-qualified officers to operate nuclear power engineering
plants aboard nuclear powered submarines and surface ships. In addition,
the Navy is also looking for qualified men and women to serve as instructors
and research officers at one of two Nuclear Power Schools, or at the Di
vision of Naval Reactors at Arlington, Virginia.
Each officer will receive one year of training consisting of 24 weeks at a
Nuclear Power School and 26 weeks at a Nuclear Power Training Unit, a
training program that is unmatched anywhere in the world. Submarine
officers will also receive a 5-week course of Submarine School. Chances
for additional training and post-graduate courses are excellent. The new
and highly-complex Navy of today looks upon its nuclear power officers
as the ones who will lead the Navy in the future. Stop and see a represen
tative of the Officer Information Team who will be in the Memorial Stu
dent Center through April 19th from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and the Zachry En
gineering Center.
