Food stamps offset
low student budget
THE BATTALION Page 3
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 22, 1975
The rise of food prices doesn’t
need to make groceries such a bur
den on the budget. With food
stamps, for an off-campus student,
it’s possible to buy $84 worth of food
for $23 if the income qualifications
are met.
Eligibility for food stamps is de
termined by the number of people
in the home and the total income
after allowable program deductions
have been made, says George M.
Heyde, local program supervisor.
Allowable deductions cover ex
penses including alimony pay
ments, tuition and mandatory fees
for education, recurrent medical
expenses and mandatory deduc
tions from earned income. Child-
IPM group
makes local
campaign
If you are tense and jittery before
quizzes Ben Adkins can tell you
what to do to drive those jitters
away. Adkins is director of the In
ternal Peace Movement (IPM) — an
international organization which
endeavors to “bring out the best in
people.’’
Most people never function at
more than 10 per cent of what they
are really capable of putting out,
Adkins claims. The rest, he says, is
bogged down in the subconscious.
The percentage can be raised sig
nificantly if people can discover
what they came to do in this world
— and every person has his or her
specific purpose. IPM believes that
only in doing the specific thing for
which he is here will a person per
form at the maximum efficiency.
The first step he suggests is to find
out what one’s purpose is. He out
lines steps toward this awareness in
his lectures.
Besides self-improvement, IMP
involves itself with mental tele
pathy, ESP, intuition and premoni
tion and the interpretation of
dreams. None of these, Adkins says,
conflicts with any known religious
beliefs.
The lectures are scheduled for 8
p.m. tonight and Thursday at the
Aggie Pressroom at the Ramada
Inn. Admission is $1.50 per person
per night.
2are payments and shelter costs may
be deductible under specified con
ditions.
Cooking facilities are required for
eligibility, eliminating dormitory
students from receiving the be
nefits. If the applicants between
ages 18 and 65 are unemployed,
they may be required to register
with the Texas Employment Com
mission.
An applicant can own one
licensed car, a home and lot and
household goods. A $3,000 resource
maximum is set for households of
two or more including one person
age 60 or over. The resource max
imum is $1,500 for all other house
holds.
The total allowable monthly in
come after the deductions are made
for a household of one person is
$194; for two people it’s $280; for
three people it’s $406.
Information about the program is
available at the State Department of
Public Welfare, Food Stamp Office
at 408 W. 28th in Bryan.

Bryan police officers forced their
way into his home on the night of
July 19 illegally as part of an inves
tigation of the source of obscene
phone calls. Barron said in the suit
that neither the officers nor phone
company officials had search war
rants.
The suit also alleged that threats
were made by the officers and the
phone company on Barron and his
family. Later that night the phone
company admitted the mistake and
apologized to Barron.

Research value
up in fiscal ’75
Research dollar value figures to
taled $411,267 for the month of De
cember at A&M, reports Robert
Berg, director of the Office of Uni
versity Research.
The December total boosted the
cumulative figure for fiscal year
1974-75 to over $24 million since
September.
The largest research dollar value
for December went to the field of
geosciences with a $247,800 figure
while the combined total of
$163,467 going to engineering,
Texas Engineering Extension Ser
vice and Texas Transportation Insti
tute.
The new research dollars helped
place the current fiscal year total
almost $2 million above the same
cumulative figure last year.
Participants prepare
for 30th symposium
Exhibitors are setting up and par
ticipants arriving as registration for
the 30th Annual Instrumentation
Symposium at A&M got underway
Tuesday.
Hundreds of engineers, mana
gers and salesmen checked in at the
Rudder Tower registration desk
while in the University Center the
47 exhibitor companies are scrambl
ing to finish their displays.
This TAMU symposium dates
back to 1946 and is currently called
the “oldest and best of its kind in the
U. S.” by previous participants.
“The conference has been and is
primarily concerned with in-
strumentation applied by continu
ous fluid flow process industries
such as petroleum refineries, chem
ical plants, natural gas and cycling
plants,’’ said R. G. Anthony, sym
posium director.
“However, many of the princi
ples and equipment involved are
common to nearly all types of
present-day industry,” he added.
The three days of the business
part of the gathering will kick off at 9
a. m. Wednesday with a keynote ad
dress by James H. Binger, chairman
of the executive committee, Hon
eywell, Inc.
Binger will present “Instrumen
tation, Automation and Inflation.”
He proposes there are many solu
tions to the present inflationary
economy, one of the basic tools
within the control of an individual
business is increased productivity.
Binger will note the key role of in
strumentation in automation as a
major force in increasing productiv
ity and using scarce resources more
efficiently.
The exhibit display on the second
floor of the University Center will
be open from 3 to 8:30 p.m. Tues
day, 11:30to2:45p.m. Wednesday,
11:50 to 2:45 p.m. Thursday, and 8
to 9:45 a. m. Friday.
Many of these exhibits have
never before been seen or displayed
in the Southwest.

Dominik Street
The City Council and Dominik
Street residents are still considering
alternatives in the controversial re
zoning of a tract of land owned by
Harry Seaback.
The land is behind the homes of
Domonik Street residents who are
opposing the building of more
apartments in the area.
The arguments are currently
hinging on the deposition of a strip
of land between the Dominik homes
and the proposed apartments.
The rezoning request passed, by
the council last fall, calls for the
building of a buffer zone of duplexes
on the land.
Other alternatives include the
purchase of the strip by the
Dominik home owners. Seaback has
made the offer, but one resident has
rejected the proposal to date. The
City of College Station is reportedly
also considering purchasing the j
land for use as a park.
RV adds color
for exposition
Five members of the Ross Volun
teers had practice Friday in keeping
their eyes front and center.
They formed a color guard for a
convention in Houston held at the
Albert Thomas Convention Center.
RV Commander Les Harvey of
Houston and four members of the
elite honor military unit of the
Corps of Cadets participated in
opening day ceremonies of the
three-day affair.
The three-day consumer exposi
tion runs through Sunday.
The RV contingent was sur
rounded by persons of the opposite
sex. The exposition is conducted by
the Wide Wacky Wonderful World
of Women Inc.
