hpers and counselors are ex-
] to fill Lakeview Assembly to
ity for the 23rd annual
man Camp this summer, said
i)gan Weston, director of the
nt “Y” Association.
;eview, located near Palestine,
will accommodate about 1000
3. The Texas A&M Student “Y”
ation organizes activities and
des the leadership for the
ay Camp is scheduled for Au-
,3-26.
erviews for the 1976 camp
elors will begin Monday,
i 8. Results will not be an-
;d until early summer,
e number of campers has
every year, “ said Weston. In
eginning, there was only 8
rs. Last year, there were ap-
ately 746 in attendance. ”
Students instigated Freshman
Camp on their own he continued.
“The first camp was held in Bastrop,
Tex.,” said Weston. “The campers
were all male, of course, and all were
corps members. The men did their
own cooking. It was like a family
camping trip.”
“Interest in Freshman Camp was
generated from this one trip,” Wes
ton said. The first camps had only
one camp chairman. The student
staff has expanded to include a camp
sub-chairman, 4 sub-group chair
men and an athletic chairman.
“The number of upperclassmen
selected as counselors will depend
upon the number of freshmen that
register for camp, ” he said. “We like
to have one counselor for every 5 to 6
campers to keep evening discussions
groups small. It gives the freshman a
chance to meet Aggies on a personal
basis.
The 1976 camp chairman is Don
Royder. Sub-chairman is Cyndi
Davis. The four sub-group chairmen
are Jim Ramsey, Rene Cockburn,
Troby Hoffacker and Lauren Chil
ders. Doug Fogle i s in charge of ath
letics.
Counselors are selected on the
basis of their personal qualifications
and interest. “We are looking for
students that got involved in univer
sity activities during their freshman
year,” said Weston.
Other criteria for selection are
ability of self-expression and estab
lishment of a good record the first
year the student is at A&M.
Counselors are primarily respon
sible for leading discussion groups.
They receive leadership study mate
rial prior to the dates. The students
are encouraged to practice leading
groups of young people in church or
school activities before coming to
camp.
“Camp serves as a basic transi
tional period between high school
and college,” Weston said. During
the 13 mandatory orientation ses
sions in in-coming freshmen are in
vited to attend camp.
The “Y” also stresses the de
velopment of the spiritual and men
tal aspects of life.
The cost of the camp is $35 for both
campers and counselors. All coun
selors must report to A&M on Sun
day, August 22. Buses depart for
Lakeview on Monday, August 23 and
return to campus on August 2.

i, March 11, in Rudder Theater,
ission $1.
C|f LIVE RANGE — Notorious
emale rape sequence, this one
ttleelse, either controversial or
nil taining, to offer. All of the prin-
i (Jon Voight, Burt Reynolds,
Beatty, Ronny Cox) have done
§r work elsewhere, and director

TllE BLACK BIRD — George
Segal stars in this take-off on “The
Maltese Falcon.” Segal is pretty
good, but the film just doesn’t make
it, either as spoof or as comedy.
Cinema Two, shows Saturday and
Sunday at 3:35, 5:35, 7:35, and 9:40,
weekdays at 7:35 and 9:40. Admis
sion $2.50.
GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN,
ALICE COOPER — Before Cooper
fired his band it was one of the best
around. Made at the time they re
corded “Billion Dollar Babies,” this
film is worth seeing, just for the
curiosity value. Cinema One and
Two, shows Friday and Saturday at
midnight. Admission is $1.25.
THE KILLER ELITE — James
Caan gives a nice, offhand perfor
mance in this confused, but fascinat
ing spy film directed by that master
of slow-motion violence, Sam Pec
kinpah. Skyway Twin, shows at 7:00.
Admission $2, with $1 admission on
Mondays. East screen.

Bates stars in this French film, di

campuses. Presented by the Arts
Committee Film Series, March 8, at

LUCKY LADY — Liza Minnelli,
Burt Reynolds, and Gene Hackman
are all wasted in this expensive,
glossy piece of trash about the trials
and troubles of three Prohibition era
rumrunners. Except for Minnelli’s
one big musical number, a real drag.
Skyway Twin, west screen, shows at
7:00. Admission $2, with special $1

sioned by the Nazi regime to film the

PAPILLION — Directed by
Franklin Schaffner, this story of
