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 . . .

Panel explains rules
Tow away policies given
Pot verdict
The traffic panel referred
women’s parking to a subcommittee
and explained tow away policies in a
meeting Wednesday.
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!
Research at new
high
Research administered by the
Texas A&M Research Foundation
reached a new high last year, as
shown by figures published in the
annual report.
The dollar value of research to
taled $8.75 million, up nearly one
million over the previous year.
The report expressed optimism
for continued growth during the
coming year, aided by a balance of
$9.6 million at the close of the year’s
operations in August 1974. These
funds are available for research to be
completed in the near future.
An increasingly higher percen
tage of proposals are being funded,
according to figures published by
the foundation. The total number of
proposals was up almost 25 per cent
over the previous year.
Research programs on the cam
pus were sponsored by sixteen dif
ferent federal agencies with the Na
tional Science Foundation, Navy
and Department of Transportation
being the leading sponsors. Spon
sorship from these sources totaled
$1.8 million, $1.5 million and $1.1
million.
