AUSTIN — Sen. A.R. “Babe”
chw£ tz, D-Galveston, describes
en. Bill Moore, D-Bryan, as his
atural enemy and said the peace
act between them has ended.
Sciwartz and Moore made head-
inesSast Monday with a verbal as-
aultRvhile on the Senate floor that
Lost ended in fisticuffs. During
le exchange, which centered
iround Schwartz’ demand to inter-
■ogate a witness before the State Af-
rs Committee where Moore is
airman, Schwartz called Moore a
and Moore countered by saying
chwa tz was a fool. The altercation
nded with Moore slamming his
avel to adjourn the committee
neeting and storming toward
chwartz.
“Schwartz, the only reason you’re
jtting away with that is you know I
on’t hit you. You’re too damned
mall, Moore said, shaking his
ngefin the smaller senator’s face.
This most recent battle between
nservative Moore and liberal
liwartz, who are first and second,
:spectively, in Senate seniority,
egan earlier Monday when
chwartz criticized a Moore bill that
at would exempt contractors from
ertain liabilities on projects for

cities, counties and other govern
ment agencies.
But the war between the two
began 19 years ago.
“Bill Moore and I are natural
enemies by virtue of our per
sonalities and attitudes and
motivations,” Schwartz said Wed
nesday. “The best that Bill Moore
and I have been able to do since I
came here in 1960 is engage in a
detente from about ’71 until day be
fore yesterday.”
Schwartz said serious damage
would be done to the legislative
process if committee chairmen are
given the right to determine which
senators may question witnesses.
Schwartz, who is not a member of
the State Affairs Committee where
the fight occurred, asserted that as a
member of the Senate he has a right
to question any witnesses before any
commitee.
“It’s my position if we ever got
into the shape where a committee
had to grant the member the right
to interrogate witnesses at a com
mittee where he was not a member,
that would effectively destroy the
ability of an elected state official to
operate in the interst of his district, ”
said Schwartz, who has introduced a
bill to guarantee senators the ques
tioning right. ”

Pre-registration for the fall
1979 University Honors Program
will be held in conjunction with
regular fall semester pre-
regestration April 16-20 at Texas
A&M University.
Qualifying students will have a
larger choice than ever this year
with 19 departments offering 30
courses in 52 Honors sections.
Many of the Honors sections are
appropriate as both required
courses and electives outside a
student’s field of study.
Courses added to the Honors
Program for the first time this fall
will include Accounting 327 (In
termediate Accounting), Busi
ness Analysis 217 (Business Data
Processing Concepts), Biochem
istry 302 (Food and Man), Land
scape Architecture 240 (History
of Landscape Architecture),
Mathematics 253 (Engineering
Mathematics III), Marketing 321
(Marketing), Spanish 105 (Be
ginning Spanish) and Renewable
Natural Resources 205 and 215
(Fundamentals of Ecology and
Fundamentals of Ecology with
Laboratory, respectively).
To qualify for an Honors sec
tion, a student must have a grade
point ratio of 3.0 or above. Stu
dents interested in registering
for the special courses should
make sure their adviser places
them in sections with the “H”
suffix and a 200-level section
M||
number. (Students entering
Texas A&M for the first time are
placed in Honors sections on the
basis of SAT scores and high
school records.)
Honors sections hold several
advantages for students. Among
these are smaller class sizes, out
standing instructors, a more
stimulating class environment, a
somewhat broader treatment of
materials and Honors Student
classification on records such as
college transcripts, according to
University Honors Program Di
rector Dr. B. L. Shapiro.
A survey of last fall’s Honors
sections revealed that 79 percent
of those enrolled receive either
A’s or B’s, and a total of 92 per
cent receive A s, B’s or C’s.
In addition to the previously
named new “H ” courses. Honors
sections are being offered this fall
in Biology 113 and 123, Chemis
try 101, 111 and 227, Economics
203 and 323, Environmental De
sign 149, English 104 and 301,
Genetics 301, History 105 and
106, Management 363, Mathe
matics 121 and 151, French 101,
Physics 201, Political Science
206 and 207 and Psychology 107.
Additional information on
Honors sections is available from
departmental advisers or from
