In recent years, the explosive growth of the University and expan sion of Brazos Valley industries created a housing shortage. Some students settled for cramped rooms or apartments. University officials said they would not build more dormitories. The demand for new housing was clear. A building boom followed the in creased demand, creating hundreds of new apartments and duplexes. This year there were no students unable to find suitable housing, said Brenda Anderson of the Texas A&M Student Affairs office. Housing shortages are no longer a problem in the Bryan-College Station area, says a local banker and university official interviewed on KAMU TV’s “Viewpoint.” Hundreds of apartments and duplexes have been built and students no longer have to settle for cramped quarters.

The House, how ever, already is conducting hearings on the issue. In appearances before the House International Relations Committee yesterday, two former secretaries of state endorsed the treaties and warned that if the Senate rejects the pact dire consequences may follow. The testimony came from Dean Rusk and Henry Kissinger. Some members of the House as sert that in addition to the Senate s ratification role, the House must be consulted on decisions to dispose of major U.S. properties such as the canal. The White House maintains only Senate approval is needed. Among the Senate’s concerns of the day yesterday was President Carter’s energy package and it ap peared the President lost ground on part of his plan. The Senate Energy Committee hacked away from proposals to have the federal government set new ground rules for determining utility rates. Carter’s wide-ranging propo sal would require state regulatory commissions to alter power c harges to eliminate bargain prices for cus tomers that use large amounts of electricity or natural gas. The committee directed its staff to draw up a plan by which federal officials could merely intervene in state rate hearings to push for energy conservation.
