Legett Hall, a men’s dormitory
since 1911, will receive a $1,085,000
face-lift scheduled to begin the
summer of 1978. It will remain a
187-bed, non-air-conditioned dorm.
Vice-chancellor for administration
Clyde Freeman said construction
should be completed and ready for
occupancy one year later, anticipat
ing no delays.
“We are being careful not to
interrupt occupancy during the
academic year,’’ Freeman said.
Students who live in dorms simi
lar to Legett (Law, Puryear, Hart,
Walton and Hotard) will share the
costs of renovation, thus raising
their dorm fees $30-40 more per
semester, said Eddie Davis, direc
tor of management services.
The decision for rennovation
came during the Texas A&M Board
of Regents’ meeting in July.
Last January, a controversy began
when the Regents appropiated
$10,000 to study the alternatives for
the future of Legett. Options were
conversion to office and classroom
space and renovation as a dorm with
or without air conditioning.
Legett Hall residents petitioned
to the Board against conversion to
an academic facility. They asked the
Board to consider the demand for
inexpensive on-campus housing,
and also pointed out what seemed to
be a growing trend — the conver
sion of old dorms for academic pur
poses.
Many of the residents had lived in
Milner Hall before it was converted
to offices last year.
University Chancellor Jack K.
Williams followed the same reason
ing when he and Board members
debated for almost an hour during
the July meeting.

Comptroller position
rejected by injunction
By ROBIN LINN
Last Wednesday the Student Sen
ate refused to approve the appoint
ment of a comptroller by the Student
Body President, Robert Harvey.
On Friday, an injunction was
brought by Michael D. Gerst,
Senator in the Graduate College of
Agriculture, to stop comptroller-
appointee Stuart Kingsbury from
signing checks until his appointment
is approved by the Student Senate.
“The injunction simply says Stuart
is not comptroller, and he cannot
legally sign cheeks,” Harvey said.
He did not contest the the injunc
tion.
Gerst, who initiated the injunc
tion, is opposed to the check-signing
powers of the newly created comp
troller position.
He said the vice president of fi
nance should handle all cheek-
signing, and leave accounting to the
comptroller.
“I think the comptroller should be
strictly an accountant, and not a
manager of money affairs,” Gerst
said.
The cheeks Kingsbury had signed
were for payment of students who
had helped move refirgerators dur
ing the first week of school. The total
amount of the three checks was $48.
The position of comptroller had al
ready been created by Harvey, but
Student Senate had not met for their
first meeting that year to approve the
changes Harvey had made in the
executive branch of Student Gov
ernment.
Stan Stanfield, Judicial Board
chairman, said the problem was de
