said. The act would authorize the

COMMITTEE FOR AWARENESS OF MEXICAN AMERICAN CULTURE
By COLIN CROMB1E
What would you do if you were
going home for the weekend and
needed a ride or a rider?
You could use the Hitchin Post in
the Memorial Student Center
(MSC) or the Ride Board in the
Academic building.
The Hitchin Post is sponsored by
the M SC Travel Committee. It is on
the stairway by the east entrance of
the M SC. A brown board sitting in a
corner, it is usually decorated with
pink and green slips of paper.
But it is outdated, out of place
and too small, said Rusty Phelps, a
Travel Committee member, al
though he added that it does help.
The Hitchin’ Post has a map of
Texas and has been in operation for
about 20 years. A bigger, perma
nent structure is planned that will
include a map of North America.
Another Travel Committee
member, Barbara Fricke, is respon
sible for the new Hitchin’ Post.
It has been planned for almost a
year, said MSC Director J. Wayne
Stark, who is “most discouraged by
the lack of action by the Travel
Committee.” He quickly added that
in other areas the committee is
more effective now than in the past
10 years.
The Ride Board on the first floor
of the Academic building is now
sponsored by Lambda Sigma, a
sophomore honor society and serv
ice organization.
Until this year, the board was a
project of Student Government,
which became too involved in poli
tics, said Sandy Morrow, vice presi
dent of Lambda Sigma.
They may be more effective the
farther you are going, said Phelps
and Morrow, or if they were in
heavier traffic, said Stark.
But if the Hitchin’ Post and the
Academic’s Ride Board are not suf
ficient, then where else might a
board be positioned?
Having a ride board in the library
has been discussed, said Assistant
Library Director Richard L. Puck
ett.
With renovations planned to start
this year, another board in the main
corridor of the library may make
noise and traffic unbearable,
Puckett said.
By 1980 the estimated comple
tion date for the renovations, he
said a ride board may be put in an
enlarged lounge area. He added
that the responsibility and mainte
nance of a board would have to go to
a student organization.
