School district needs facilities
Wes Mowery, a Fort Worth
rancher seeking the Republican
nomination to the U.S. Congress in
the sixth congressional district, will
speak on his political views at the
March 31 meeting of the Texas A&M
chapter of College Republicans.
The meeting is slated for 7:30 p.m.
in room 308 of the Rudder Complex
Tower'on the A&M campus.
“The quickest way to contain infla
tion is to quit the deficit spending,”
says Mowery. “Inflation is the
crudest tax of all, hurting the poor
and those
most. ”

elusion of a women’s athletic program, ad
ministrators say.
While the cross-country team runs aisles
in the auditorium, the P. E. classes are held
in the cafeteria. The athletic training room
was converted into an office because 12
coaches were operating in one office. As a
result, a homemade training room was set
up in a corner of the boy’s dressing room.
The proposed bond issue will provide
additional dressing room areas for P.E.
classes and for storage areas.
Lambert Wilkes, a member of the school
board, said “If we do get the vocational
facility, then we can use the space for phys
ical education.”
The bond issue also includes $110,000
for a new kitchen at the high school and a
cafeteria extension for those students with
paper bag lunches.
At the present time, cafeteria food is
cooked at South Knoll and often arrives at
the high school cold. The South Knoll
kitchen is too small to prepare meals for the
projected enrollment increase, said High
School Principal Caskey.
Wilkes said he did not agree with the
proposed extension of the cafeteria because
not enough students are eating there. He
said he would like to see the space given to
the band and music programs.
Caskey admitted it was difficult to plan
how much food is needed because if it is
raining more students eat in the cafeteria.
When it’s sunny, he noted, many drive to
the Dairy Queen or other drive-ins.
“Corrective measures ’ call for $142,500
of the proposed bond issue. They include:
security gates to control traffic in the
school, ventilation for the science labs, gym
and dressing rooms, heat for the band and
choir rooms, and replacement of the exist
ing one-foot square wooden lockers.
Outside lighting of both parking lots are
proposed along with soundproofing of the
gym due to interference with nearby
classes.
Furniture, inflation allowance and pro
fessional fees call for $392,900.
Seven of the eleven candidates for the
school baord support the bond issue. The
major objection voiced was that theissueis
being presented as one question, rathe:
than as individual propositions.
Hoy Richards, candidate for Place2on
the school board, said “The voters want the
priorities to be established. We do need
fiscal assistance, but 1 really feel like some
of the facilities included on the bond issue
are not what we need right now,”
Fitch, another board candidate, said,
“The voters’ decision in the last election
was that $5.1 million was more than new

smaller bond issue, came back with a large
one, which seems to show a disregan

LONDON — Foreign Secretary
James Callaghan appears certain to
succeed Harold Wilson as Britain’s
prime minister next week after tak
ing the lead over left-winger Michael
Foot in the second round of voting by
members of the ruling Labor party in
the House of Commons.
Results of the secret mail ballot
announced Tuesday night gave the
64-year-old Callaghan 141 votes to
Foot’s 133. Callaghan failed to get
the majority necessary for election
because another moderate. Chancel
lor of the Exchequer Denis Healey,
was still in the race and got 38 votes.
Two votes apparently were lost in
the mail. The other three Laborites
in Commons are Scottish nationalists
who are abstaining from the voting.
The third ballot, to be counted
next Monday, will he between Cal
laghan and Foot, and most or all of
Healey’s votes are expected to go to
Callaghan.

Foot, 62, refused to concede, say
ing: “I shall fight on. The whole
thing is wide open. I think I’m still in
with a chance to win.” But the trend
already was away from the left.
In the first round last week, three
candidates from the party’s center
and right wing got a total of 170 votes
while three left-wingers got only
144. Foot, instead of attracting
needed support from the other side
of the party, apparently failed to hold
on to 11 of the votes that went for the
other two leftists last week.
The Laborites are choosing their
party leader, who under the British
parliamentary system then becomes
the prime minister. After the race is
over, Wilson will go to Buckingham
Palace, submit his resignation to
Queen Elizabeth II and recommend
that she summon the new party
leader to become prime minister and
form a government. Constitutional
tradition requires that she carry out
his recommendation.
Wilson announced two weeks ago
that he was quitting after 13 years as
party leader, eight of them as prime
minister. His successor will have
another three years in power before
he must call a general election unless
he is defeated on a major issue in
Parliament. However, there is
speculation that he will go to the
country sooner if there is a marked
improvement in the economic situa
tion for which the Laborites can
