Anthropologist
to speak today
Anthropologist Richard E. Leakey
will arrive on campus today for meet
ings with Texas A&M University
students, highlighted by an evening
public lecture, entitled “The
Human Heritage.”
Leakey, director of Kenyan Na
tional Museums, will present his
public address at 8 p.m. in Rudder
Auditorium. Tickets, $3 for general
admission and $1 for students will be
available at the door or from the An
thropology Club booth in the
Memorial Student Center.
Leakey’s East African studies
through the Foundation for Re
search into the Origins of Man
(FROM) have given rise to the claim
that man’s ancestors existed millions
of years earlier than was believed
possible and that several species of
man’s ancestors acutally lived side-
by-side.
A&M is the first of four campuses
in the state that Leakey plans to
visit
this week. He arrived in Texas
Monday following last weekend’s
2nd Annual FROM Distinguished
Lecture Series in California.
The series, which brings together
the leading names in the search for
man’s roots, is planned for Texas
next year, with A&M as headquar
ters for the scientific body.

UTILITY companies have been
forced by take-or-pay contracts to
pay for millions of cubic feet of
natural gas they did not receive, and
consumers have been the ultimate
losers. Rep. Tom Schieffer, D-Fort
Worth, contends. His bill,
scheduled for House consideration
today, would limit the future use of
take-or-pay contracts, but would not
abolish them. Take-or-pay con
tracts, which require utilities to
either take all the natural gas they
contract to purchase or pay for it
anyway, would be limited, accord
ing to Schieffers’s bill, so that uti-
lites would never have to pay more
than 80 per cent of the sale price for
natural gas they did not receive, and
would give the utilities up to two
years to take contracted gas without
losing the option to purchase it.

BY DENYING a request to hear
an appeal by convicted murderer
Ernest Benjamin Smith, the Su
preme Court yesterday moved the
Dallas man a step closer to the elec
tric chair. Benjamin Smith is con
victed of participation in the 1973
robbery of a small Dallas grocery
during which William Moon, a
clerk, was slain. In July, 1976, the
Texas Court of Criminal Appeals af
firmed Smith’s conviction and an
execution date was set for last Nov.
18. However, the death sentence
was stayed pending the ruling on
whether the full court would hear
the appeal. Yesterday’s order was
the denial of that appeal.
THE SEARCH goes on today in
Tower City, Pa., for five men who
were trapped in a coal mine last
Tuesday by tons of water that
rushed through the mine. Federal
and state mine safety officials hold
little hope any of them have sur
vived. Four were killed and another
was rescued during the weekend. A
television camera, microphone and
loud speaker were dropped through
a hole straight down from atop a
435-foot hill into the flooded-out
coal mine tunnel to find out if the
five missing miners might still be
alive.
A RUSSIAN trawler has become
the first foreign vessel cited
southwest of the Alaska Coast under
the new U.S. 200-mile fishing law.
An officer of the National Marine
Fisheries Service yesterday
boarded the stern of the trawler
Mys Vorona and found halibut on
the Russian ship, violating the law
which took effect March 1. The
treaty permits the Soviet fleet to
fish in certain areas for some species
within the 200-mile zone, but the
taking of halibut is prohibited. The
fisheries service will initiate pro
ceedings, which provides a civil
penalty of up to $25,000 for the type
violation the Mys Vorona is accused
of committing. The trawler was not
detained.
World
THE NATION, a newspaper in
Nairobi, has urged Ugandans to es
tablish their own government-in
exile and blasted Arab and African
nations for their silence over recent
events in the East African country.
It also demanded the United Na
tions to “disarm” Uganda and ac
cused the Soviet Union of being
deeply involved in the mass killing
of Ugandans by President Amin’s
security forces.
TO ALLEVIATE some of
Romania’s needs following a major
earthquake last Friday that killed at
least 1,034 people, the United
States yesterday flew $80,000 worth
of bandages, antiseptic sprays, an
tibiotics and other supplies from
American bases in Italy and West
Germany.

getting a programmable,
Texas Instruments has a
special offer for you
NOW.
SR-52 $249.95* (New low price)
If you want the computer-like power of a card pro
grammable then choose this one.
Techniques like optimization, iteration, data reduc
tion, what-if matrices, mathematical modeling, need
not tie up your mind — or your time.
But learning to use it is a hassle, you say. Not true.
Prerecorded programs are gathered into software
libraries: Electrical Engineering. Math. Statistics. Finance.
All you need do is load a mag card, press a few keys
and you’ll get answers that previously required a com
puter.
You can make your own programs just as easily.
In just a couple of hours you’ll begin to prove what a
powerful asset you have — right at your
fingertips.
And there’s not a better time to get an
SR-52 than right now.
