Senator’s bill
offers reward
THE BATTALION Page 5
THURSDAY, JANUARY 25, 1979
Ccnps
By ESTHER CORTEZ
Battalion Reporter
A bill which would provide a
$5,000 reward to persons who
provide information leading to the
arrest and conviction of a drug
pusher has been introduced to the
state legislature by Sen. Walter
Mengden of Harris County.
Local officials have difficulty es
timating the impact the bill would
have on the Bryan-College Station
area if it were passed into law.
Pushers are a definite problem in
this area, said Pete Sanchez, drug
education specialist at the Cross
roads Outreach Center in Bryan.
The problem stems from Brazos
County’s location right in the center
of drug trafficking between the
larger metropolitan areas such as
Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, Waco
and Ft. Worth, Sanchez said.
“We’ve treated kids as young as 10
years old,” Sanchez said. But the
typical drug abuser is between the
ages of 17 and 21, he said.
Besides alcohol, the most com
monly abused drug is marijuana, fol
lowed by animal tranquilizers,
otherwise known as PCB or “angel
dust ”. About 90 percent of the
people treated at the center are re
ferred to it by the courts, Sanchez
said, and only about 10 percent come
in voluntarily.
“In any case,” he said, “the abus
ers rarely, if ever, contribute infor
mation regarding their source of
drugs.”
Lt. Gene Knowles of the Bryan
Police Department says the bill
would definitely help.
Group
plans
lecture
The functions of city government
is the subject of a lecture by acting
Bryan City Manager Hubert Nelson.
The talk, sponsored by the
Mexican-American Democrats of
Brazos County, will be held in the
Bowie Elementary school au
ditorium at 7:30 p.m.
Tonight’s lecture is the first of a
series in MAD’s Leadership Brazos
County program. The program is in
tended to inform MAD members
about civic affairs, thereby preparing
them for a leadership role in the
community.
Future topics for the Leadership
Brazos County program include the
police department, community de
velopment organizations, utilities,
and schools.
The talks will explain the functions
and responsibility of each organiza
tion — “what the citizen can expect,”
MAD chairman Daniel Hernandez
said. For instance, he said tonight’s
talk would be a “short course on city
government.”
Myrna Hoskins, the economic de
velopment coordinator of the Brazos
Valley Development Council
(BVDC) will also talk about the pos
sibility of establishing a business ad
visory council in the county. An ad
visory council would be able to ad
vise small businesses with problems
such as filling out government forms.

Even now it is not uncommon for
the police to receive information re
garding drug pushers, Knowles said.
But it should be kept in mind that
any informant is hesitant to talk to
law enforcement officials because of
the very dangerous situation he
places himself in.
The concept behind Sen.
Mengden’s bill is to provide financial
incentive to these people who have
information about drug pushers. Art
Kelly, an administrative assistant to
Mengden, said the bill was modeled
after a New York law which provides
a lesser reward of $1,000. The Texas
bill was introduced to the legislature
in 1973 and again in 1975 and 1977.
It failed to pass at each session. Kelly
said that it generally takes two or
three sessions for a bill to pass, and
that in this case they were just going
to keep after it. Prospects for passage
of the bill might not be especially
bright, Kelly said, but added
“there’s always the next session.”
