Page & THE BATTALION TUESDAY, JUNE 19, 1979 Truckers clog Dallas highway at rush hour United Press International DALLAS — Thirty independent truckers angered by the limited supply and high price of diesel fuel clogged a major thoroughfare Monday by slowing their rigs to a crawl and stacking rush hour traffic behind them. A police spokesman said the rigs traveled between 10 and 15 mph along 1-30, a major artery connecting Dallas and Fort Worth that daily carries thousands to their jobs. The huge trucks, three abreast on the highway, crept along the road from about 6:30 to about 7:30 a. m. when they entered the Dallas city limits. At the city limits the trucks picked up speed and gathered later at a truckstop to make additional protest plans. I don t know exactly what their point was,” the police spokesman said. “What they were doing was going along neck-and-neck and blocking traffic behind.” 301 Patricia College Station, TX 77840 713/846-7401 SPECIALS Women's shampoo, cut and blowdry reg. $12 NOW *9 Men's shampoo, cut and blowdry reg. $10 NOW $ 7 Future fish Student orientation for incoming freshmen is held periodically throughout the summer to acquaint new students with the campus and campus activities.
