James P. Hannigan
Former
dean
honored
Retired Dean of Students James
P. Hannigan was awarded emeritus
designation Tuesday by the Board of
Directors.
Hannigan retired Aug. 31, 1973,
after 14 years as dean of students, the
longest tenure for any person who
ever held that position at TAMU.
His emeritus designation was re
commended by Dr. John J. Koldus,
vice president for student services,
and endorsed by TAMU President
Jack K. Williams.
“Mr. Hannigan, through supervi
sion of student activities, has contri
buted immeasurably to the de
velopment of this university during a
period in which it experienced un
paralleled growth," Dr. Koldus
noted in the recommendation to the
board. “He was instrumental in the
expansion of student programs at
Texas A&M University and played a
key role in the development of
numerous service organizations."
Dean Hannigan joined TAMU
after a 30-year Army career. The
1929 West Point graduate was a
brigadier general when he retired
from the service.
Dean and Mrs. Hannigan reside at
918 Park Lane in Bryan.
Lawyers
to quash
subpoena
WASHINGTON (A>)_President
Nixon’s chief Watergate lawyer
said today he will move to quash
a subpoena by special prosecutor
Leon Jaworski for additional
White House tapes. And he de
clines to say whether the Presi
dent would abide by the adverse
Supreme Court decision should
the legal battle go that far.
James D. St. Clair, White House
special counsel, told a group of
newsmen he will oppose the Ja
worski subpoena which calls on
Nixon to supply by Thursday
tapes and documents relating to
64 private conversations, on two
grounds:
1 — Jaworski already has ample
material to carry out the prosecu
tion of persons already indicted in
connection with the Watergate
scandal.
2 — Material that might aid the
defendants in protecting their
rights is contained in the massive
volume of edited tape transcripts
Nixon made public Tuesday, and
all other exculpatory material is
being provided to the defendants
as it is discovered at the White
House.
The attorney’s plan to seek the
quashing of the Jaworski sub
poena could lead to a legal court
battle over access to the tapes
such as the one that led to the
firing last October of Archibald
Cox, the original Watergate spe
cial prosecutor.
