two participants of BRACHMAN-
CENTENNIAL COLLEGE who
were under investigation by the
Humane Society for killing a goat
last semester behind the dormitory.
The two students, who were put on
probation because of the incident,
claimed the goat was humanely
slaughtered for the annual Brach-
man off-campus barbeque and beer
party. They said since all local
slaughterhouses were booked lull,

its throat after it was stunned by a
hammer blow.

number of signatures of registered
Denton voters. It was 78 names
short of the 1,911 required to call for
the election.

Former Aggies
give a million
Apparently unaware of any
economic crisis in America, the
Former Students of A&M contri
buted $1.2 million to the university
in 1974.
Joe H. Moore, president of the
Former Students, said in a presen
tation to President Jack K. Williams
that 64 per cent of the fund was
unrestricted.
Unrestricted funds consist of gifts
not tagged by the donor for specific
scholarships and other educational
programs.
The Association designated unre
stricted funds for such programs as
Faculty Distinguished Achieve
ment Awards, President’s Scholar
ships and Opportunity Awards.
Also benefited were the
president’s and dean’s funds,
graduate student awards, student
activities and faculty and student
programs.
More than 19,000 former stu
dents and friends contributed to the
fund through 23,643 gifts, according
to Association Executive Director
Richard “Buck” Wierus.
