Resident Hall Association
Well into third year of civilian dormitory representation
The Residence Hall Association is
well into its third year as a represen
tative body of dormitory students.
It is composed of the presidents of
22 civilian dorms. The association
discusses problems within the
dorms, plans organized dorm ac
tivities and works with the administ
ration.
The RHA was established in 1973,
but its real beginning was in 1964.
With the entrance of civilian stu
dents, there was a need for a govern
ing body for civilians, the Corps of
Cadets had the Cadet Court, so the
civilian students formed the Civilian
Student Council.
During the CSC’s formative years,
the council was in competition with
the Student Government. The CSC
began programming activities for the
residence halls, which conflicted
with the Memorial Student Center
directorate and the Student Gov
ernment.
Ron Blatchley, associate director
of student affairs, began working
with the CSC in 1973. It was during
this year that the CSC members de
cided that they had no place in trying
to govern the student* body.
With Blatchley’s help, the CSC
determined that there was a need for
an organization to work within the
residence halls and concentrate
upon problems affecting dorm stu
dents.
A new constitution was drawn up
in the fall semester of 1973, and the
CSC’s name was changed to the Re
sidence Hall Association. After or
ganizing itself, the first project of the
RHA was to work with the 20 civilian
dorms to revise their constitutions.
During the past years, RHA has
worked to organize dorm activities
such as push ball games and Hallo
ween trick-or-treat. This semester
RHA is planning a Texas Residence
Hall Association convention and the
annual Casino night.
RHA has worked with the ad
ministration to get increases in visi
tation hours, to purchase a Quonset
hut for student parties and to set
limitations on cooking in dorm
rooms. Current RHA committees
include:
Dorm Improvements Committee,
now working on lounge renovations.

Today is Wednesday, March
3, 1976, the 46th day of the
spring semester. There are 67
days until Final Review, 73 days
until the last final exam.
On this date in 1968, the Stu

which would determine the
civilian students’ opinion of the
college clothing regulations.
The poll was to ask whether the
students preferred the present
regulations, elimination of all
standards or relaxed rules.
The clothing regulations at
that time prohibited T-shirts,
beards and mustaches, long hair
and clothing which displayed

exas underground water
necessary but scarce
Associated Press
AUSTIN — Underground water
— the crucial ingredient for Texas’
rich bin of food and fiber — is not as
plentiful as water planners once
thought.
Three state geologists say that in
1968, when the statewide Texas
Water Plan was written, it was esti
mated that 4,779,300 acre-feet a year
could be withdrawn from under
ground water sources without de
pleting the supply.
Their recent survey, however,
shows Texas can count on only
4,295,700 acre-feet, a 10 per cent
decrease from the previous esti
mates. An acre-foot is 325,851 gal
lons.
The results of the survey were dis
closed by R. D. Price, D. A. Muller
and W. B. Klemt of the Texas Water
Development Board in the board’s
magazine, “Texas Water.”

The drought of the 1950s forced
Texans to rely more on ground wa
ter, the geologists said, adding:
“Although more than 1,000
municipalities and numerous indus
tries use large quantities of ground
water, the greatest use in Texas has
been in agriculture for irrigating im

cotton, wheat, forage crops, rice, hay
and pasture acreage, vegetables, oil
crops other than cotton, orchards,
and nut crops. ”
