THOMAS CLOCK CO. 901 Gordon St. Bryan, Texas Phone: 822-6122 tuho am i The golden of my sunsets reflect my warmth, and the flight of the white eagle tells of my grace, soaring into the heights of mountains unclimbed — set in place by the etchings of my hand. The redness of the rose, its depth and color, tells you of my intensity and of my majesty. The sensitivity of a violet tells you of my softness and under standing. The roaring of the waves, the rumble of my thunder, and the tender falling of my rain make the symphony of heaven, accented by the wind crying at the doors to your heart — and my snowflakes falling like petals of love upon the black earth, crystalizing my purity for all to see. The wilderness with its terrain of jagged rocks and liberated brush, growing wildly at will amidst the dry ground, flanked by stones and sprays of grass thrown here and there: a witness to the free form of my creation, the unyoked liberty at will available to all who come into my rest. The glassy smoothness of a hidden lake behind the walls of my handcarved canyons, pools clear and life giving, put there for you, a weary traveler to take rest and drink. The night, given to rest your eyelids in tranquility, to lull you into slumber till the gentle dawning of light edges into your life, lighting your way to see me. Will it be today? What can make you arise from your spiritual death? Shall love songs from the earth herself awaken my love, my fair one? Shall a cup of cold water stir the remembrance in your heart of the Garden when we walked and talked together? Shall the smell of a flower turn your head to my love, waiting to be received? What shall unlock the death of your selfishness? Shall the blaze of a comet’s light prompt you to inquire of me? Shall the display of my universe spectacular taunt your curiosity to wonder who I am? Will the words, “love your neighbor as your self” challenge you to know me further? Shall love expressed in death impress you to repent? Will the falling leaves remind you of your fall from my presence? Will the icy hand of winter pull you toward my warmth and forgive ness? Will the hand of death push you to my side in desperation? What shall it be? For I shall try all things to reach you. I will call to you in each crash of thunder and pound at your heart with the tears of my rain. I will rage in the chamber of your darkness, standing as the only light within your cavern of death, waiting. . . waiting ... for the breaking of your pride that will set you free. Asyourplanet takes its final plunge into time, my hand is outstretch ed still. My mercy has indeed endured forever. I am seeking those of you who are still lost and trying to bring back those of you who were driven away by those who claimed to know me, but who were full of hypocrisy and greed. Do not stumble and die because of them. I am still striving with you sovereignly by my Holy .Spirit; listen to Him. This is between you and me. Why would you want to die eternally? The way of restoration is the way of receiving my Son Jesus. He is your friend, the lover of your soul. My Word is greater than the shred ded remnants of your own doubt and intellect which shall fade away and wither as the grass of the field. You are being shown the true way of life . . . live in me . . . call upon me now . .. abide in my word .. . seek me each day in prayer, and I shall be there to meet you and commune with you. This is OUR BEGINNING . . .

Cars are not towed away unless the owner has three or more tickets and identification of the owner can not be made. Chief O. L. Luther of the university police said at a traffic panel meeting Wednesday. He said there are 513 unregis tered cars on campus and a number of these have been ticketed over the three violation limit. “Some stu dents have 13 tickets, ” Luther said. The inavailability of wheel locks makes this method less usable than impoundment. The police have only three locks. The lock remains on the car for a 24-hour limit before being towed away, if the owner doesn’t notify the police to remove it. Both forms of parking enforce ment are used only if ticketing is not effective in handling the problem, Luther said. The only other occasion where towing is used is when a drive or handicapped parking spot is blocked. This is to free the spot im mediately, Steve Wakefield, stu dent panel member, said. Also, opposition was raised in the traffic appeal panel about the privileged parking of women dorm students. Barry Brooks, student panel member, brought the matter to the attention of the panel on re ferral from the Senate Executive Committee. The committee found the situation in violation of the “Student’s Bill of Rights. The section applying to the prob lem reads no policy shall be made discriminating against a person for color, creed, sex or race. The reason for women parking near the dorm was to provide ulti mate protection. Since the policy was first established, more lighting and better walkways have been pro vided. The panel recommended that the vehicle regulation sub-committee make parking priorities without re gard for sex. An A&M student charged Oct. 23 with possession of marijuana was found guilty in county court Wed nesday. Steve Hamm, 18, a freshman, was fined $150 plus court costs and given a 30-day sentence, probated for one year. Hamm pleaded not guilty to the charge Oct. 30. He was arraigned before County Judge Wil liam R. Vance Nov. 13. Hamm and his roommate, Scott Foster, also 18 and a freshman. were charged with possession of marijuana after University Police al legedly found 16 small marijuana plants growing in their room in Moses Hall. Police acted on a tip from an in former in the dormitory, according to Harry Blumfield, head resident adviser. Foster pleaded guilty Oct. 30, was fined $250 plus court costs and received a 30-day sentence, prob ated for one year. HEY!
