Counseling service to aid student
By WENDY WETZEL
Staff Writer
Students with problems or those
that need a friendly ear can benefit
from a Personal Counseling Ser-
The staff is composed of Dr.
Wade Birch, director, Dr. Patricia
Self and Dr. Michael Jamail.
The service is located in room 306
of the YMCA Building and ap
pointments can be made by calling
845-4427.
Staff members will counsel stu
dents in six different areas.
They are Personal-Social Coun
seling, Marriage and Family Coun
seling, Counseling on Human Sex
uality, Group Counseling, Career
Counseling and the Information
Library.
Personal-Social Counseling deals
with family problems, concerns
about values and beliefs and any
other problem that is of concern to
the student.
Marriage and Family Counseling
covers marriage and family prob
lems, children and divorce.
Self is providing counseling on
Human Sexuality. She deals with
matters pertaining to family plan
ning, communicable disease and
sexual development for both men
and women.
mation and is available for student
Group Counseling covers career
exploration groups, couples groups
and personal growth groups.
Career Counseling helps stu
dents learn about their interest,
abilities and personalities.
When interviewed, Birch said
the Personal Counseling Service
was founded because of a need cited
by RA’s, staff members and stu
dents.
Birch said in the first month of
operation 90 students, 55 females
and 35 males, were counseled in 185
interviews.
“They come from all over tin
campus not from one specificate),
said Birch.

Vance says court reporters
optional feature for counties
By STEVE GRAY
Staff Writer
Spectators in Judge William R.
Vance s county court may be sur
prised at the absence of a familiar
courtroom figure: the court repor
ter.
But, according to Vance, there is
no legal requirement for a court re
porter in a county court as there is in
state district court. Vance said,
however, a defendant in a case may
request one at the initial trial.
“We have the services of a free
lance court reporter available to us
when necessary,’’ Vance said.
Vance pointed out that a case in
which there is no transcript will not
be considered by an appeals court.
“Under this condition, the case is
sent back to the county court to be
retired,’’ Vance said.
Proving perjury without a court
transcript presents another prob
lem, according to County Attorney
Roland Searcy.
“It would be difficult to prove
perjury without a written record of
testimony, Searcy said, “but it
would not be impossible. ”
He said disposition of such a case
would hinge on the word of the
judge and the attorneys.
Beatrix French, a local shorthand
typist, has been taking court pro
ceedings upon the court’s request.
Recently, French has been re
cording grand jury proceedings in
Huntsville related to the prison
siege that occurred in late July.
Searcy said her absence might pres
ent some problems in court.
“If a defendant requests a court
reporter when one is not available,
we simply have to re-set the trial
date to a time when one will proba
bly be available,” Searcy said.
Vance said French told him a
week ago that her schedule is not
quite as tight as it has been and “we
should be able to get her if neces
sary.”
Hiring of a fulltime court reporter

International students
draft new constitution
By TERRY TOOLEY
Staff Writer
The International Students As
sociation (ISA) was reorganized this
summer, said Corkey Sandel.
Sandel, in conjunction with an ad
hoc committee of the ISA, took the
task of drafting a new constitution
and instituting new projects and ac
tivities during the summer.
“We wanted to come up with a
constitution that can be easily
changed and modified,’ Sandel
said.
The ISA’s new format will consist
of a Senate made up of a delegate
from each country represented on
campus and an executive council
selected by the Senate.
The delegates are to be chosen by
the president or executive commit
tee of each existing international
club or students of countries which
are not presently an organized blue.
The delegates names must be
turned in to the Foreign Student
Advisor’s Office by Oct. 15. The Se
nate could comprise 74 members
because that is the number of coun
tries represented on campus.
“The purpose of the ISA in its
new outlook,” said Sandel, “will be
to provide programs and social
events for all international students.
Emphasis will also be placed on
American students becoming in
volved.
“We feel the ISA can be instru
mental in making the student body
aware of the cross-culture at Texas
A&M and the advantages that can
be derived from it. We want Ameri
cans to get involved as personal
friends — on a first name basis,”
said Sandel.
Sandel emphasized the new un
dertaking of the ISA will be “an
educational process aimed at mak
ing the American students more
aware of the foreign students and
that international students are an
asset to our University — that they
can be givers as well as takers.”
In the planning stages is an inter
national festival which would run for
two or three days and involve
music, dancing and food from other
countries. The ISA also has plans for
picnics, get-togethers and parties.
“We are just in the planning stages.
It will take time to develop these th
ings,” said Mr. Sandel.
Improvements in the program of
the ISA will include several new
committees such as the Interna
tional Student Reception Commit
tee which will handle the problem
of housing, logistics and language
encountered by foreign students ar
riving for the first time.
The improved organization of the
ISA will make it possible to amal
gamate groups who have “been a big
help on this in the past, ” such as the
Baptist Student Union, said Sandel.
The ISA has set up an office in a
corner of the old Exchange Store
lounge, with activities being coor
dinated from that point.
There are 971 international stu
dents presently enrolled.

PORTRAITS TAKEN DURING THE

cal, according to Vance. The matter
has been discussed several times by
the county commissioners.
“I can’t justify paying a fulltime
salary for what is actually a parttime
job since in many of the cases the
defendant does not request a court
reporter,” Vance said.
“As long as we can get the ser
vices of a free-lance court reporter,
there shouldn’t be too much prob
lem in obtaining court transcripts
when requested by the defendant.

Commission
(Continued from page 1)
Jones requested the county to
furnish a desk, a telephone, a part-
time secretary and office space for
the committee. The court will con
sider the request later.
County Judge William R. Vance
told the committee it would be
necessary to get approval for finan
cial assistance from both cities be
fore full-scale preparation for the
bicentennial could begin. The
county will help fund the commit
tee.
The committee plans to confirm
the nominations of the city and
county officials as representatives
on Wednesday or Thursday.
The court also considered accep
tance of a resolution from the Texas
Highway Department to extend
Briarcrest Drive east from Highway
6 to FM 158. The proposed six-
tenths of a mile extension would
provide access to the proposed
Brazos County Park, located about
two miles east of Bryan.
“The Texas Highway Depart
ment has offered to build the exten
sion if the country provides the
right-of-way and also relocate any
utilities in the area affected by con
struction. We need to study the
situation more before going ahead
with it,” Vance said.
In other action, the commission
ers court:
—Deferred action on a proposal
by Mid-Tex Fire & Safety Co. of
Bryan to recharge fire extinguishers
for Brazos County. Some of the
county’s fire extinguishers are being
recharged annually by Bailey Ox
ygen & Tool Co.
—Approved payment of
$1,192.32 by the county for foster
care.
—Approved payment of $518 to
College Station for fire calls in Sep
tember and $1,474 to Bryan for fire
calls in August and September.
