Bailey planned today to resume
questioning Dr. L. J. West, a court-
appointed psychiatrist who testified
Monday that a “shattered” Miss
Hearst showed signs of profound fear
in the weeks after her Sept. 18 cap
ture.
U.S. Atty. James L. Browning Jr.
had fought against admission of the
psychiatric testimony, but U.S. Dis
trict Court Judge Oliver J. Carter
ruled that Bailey could call to the
stand three experts who have
examined the 22-year-old defen
dant.
West was the first witness Bailey
called Monday after Miss Hearst
concluded her six days of testimony
by defying Carter’s order to answer
questions relating to a year of her life
on the run.
Carter said Miss Hearst had relin-
guished 5th Amendment protection
when she took the witness stand in
her own defense and warned her that
he would cite her for contempt of
court if she did not answer Brown
ing’s questions. But the judge did
not pursue the matter when Bailey
instructed his client to remain silent.

Texas A&M University is
adquarters for the regional
onal association of all the
ity and college teachers in

oreign languages,
two-thousand member or-
on academically known as
h Central Modern Language
tion (SCMLA), includes
in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkan-
lisiana, Mississippi and the
half of Tennessee.
Rice University withdrew
[support, the SCMLA head-
moved here officially at the
1976.
feichard Costa, professor of
$h and executive secretary-
ir of SCMLA, has a wood-
office in Evans Library,

tury-old language associa-
an improvised card table
with papers and folders that
erge around a desk-top ap-
ment calendar.
s secretary, Denese Truitt,
ted about three feet away, as
sists at a tall, dated desk with an ex
pensive electric typewriter stationed
close by on the floor.
“It has taken Denese and me a
long time to canvass everything — all
of it is as unfamiliar to me as a course,
say, in Sanskrit,” Dr. Costa said.
“We re still awaiting our office furni
ture, but at last we think we know
about where everything is.”
Surrounded by ceiling-high book
shelves, a framed wall map propped
on its side and a stacking of two boxes
supporting a telephone and ledgers.
Dr. Costa sets-up the three-day
schedule for the October convention
in Dallas.
He coordinates some forty semi
nars in various phases of language
and literature, for example, African
and Afro-American literatures, Ita
lian, and Russian language and
methodology.
“The convention is an attempt to
relax and exchange ideas. If you were
standing in the lobby of the Adol
phus in Dallas this October, you
would hear about ten different lan
guages,” said Costa.
With silver-framed reading glas
ses clinging to the tip of his nose,
Costa was dissatisfied with the
shrinking number of students in En
glish classes today.
“The topics at the convention
should deal with this and not the
rhyming couplets in poetry,” he
said.
Costa said that in America kids
can’t even learn English anymore, in
contrast with foreign students who
know two or three languages.
“The only time Americans hear a
different language is in minority
groups,” said Costa. Clad in a crum
pled sky-blue shirt and navy checked
pants, Costa said the topics should
also deal with the problem of the
bilingual child.
This semester Dr. Costa has been
teaching a half-time schedule, while
establishing the office where the
only decor is a tall plastic vine and
sprouting “Perfection” plant.
“I inherited from my Rice pre
decessor tons of paper, enclosed in a
multitude of files which go back a
quarter-century,” said Costa.
Before coming to A&M in 1970,
Dr. Costa taught at three other
schools, and was a newspaper repor
ter for twelve years. Here he teaches
several courses and is editor-
publisher of QUARTET. Reminisc
ing about the reporting field, Costa
said, “I miss it. It was never dull, and
you always were dealing with people
in the so-called real world. How
ever, I like the idea of getting old at
English rather than journalism. ”

Industrial Engineers,
Aramco has plans for you
in Saudi Arabia.
The Arabian American Oil Company has some
excellent career openings for Senior Industrial and
Management Engineers in Saudi Arabia.
, The challenge.
We are looking for alert, aggressive engineers
who will undertake responsibility for significant
industrial engineering projects and studies involv
ing manpower, equipment, and facility utilization
studies; major cost reduction studies; and institute
organization studies, job design, and job structure
development.
The qualifications.
Because of the demanding responsibilities of
these positions, it is preferable that you have an
engineering BS plus an MBA or MS in Industrial
Engineering. You will need a minimum of 5 years
progressively responsible experience. Duties
are in project I.E. assignments and studies,
and not in classical time study/MTM I.E. It is
highly desirable that your experience be in con
tinuous process industries such as petroleum
or chemical.
Why work in Saudi Arabia?
Working for Aramco in Saudi Arabia offers you
several big advantages. One is the opportunity to
save because of your overseas premium and cost
differential. Another is our liberal vacation policies
that give you the chance to travel worldwide. And
besides being paid a top salary, you are offered
excellent benefit programs. You will also find that
Aramco provides fine school, hospital, and
recreational facilities.
Send us your resume.
If you’re qualified, we would like to hear from
you. Send us a resume of your work and salary
history, and we will be in touch with you.
