rencc corps
A&M club to sponsor
water ski tournament
By BECKY MATTHEWS
Battalion Reporter
Texas A&M University’s Water
Ski Club will sponsor its 13th tour
nament in five years when the Gol-
drush Intercollegiate Tournament is
held this weekend at Aqua Gardens,
a private lake in Centerville.
One hundred to 140 students
from at least 10 Texas universities
are expected to compete in the
slalom, trick and jump events.
In the slalom, the skier must zig
zag between buoys. Trick skiing in
volves performing a series of turns
and tricks in a 20-second period.
In yet another event, skiers jump
for distance from a ramp.
Each event is divided into male
and female divisions.
The 25 members of the Texas
A&M Water Ski Club who will par
ticipate in the tournament do not
expect to win, said Mark Burton,
team captain.
Burton said that many teams have
an advantage over his team because
“they have more backing up by their
universities.”
Water ski teams at other universi
ties, he said, are given access to the
P.E. equipment and facilities. One
university built a lake in the center
of the campus and the water ski
team practices in the lake, according
to Burton.
The major problem he said, is
that the Texas A&M team has been
unable to get enough practice. The
team has to go to Lake Somerville :o
practice and that is almost impos ;i-
ble to do during the school weel
Registration for the tournament
will begin at 7 a.m. Saturday. Fees
are $10 for participation in one
event, $11 for two events and $12
for three events. Competition will
begin at 8 a.m. with the slalom. The
trick event will follow the slalom at
about 1 p.m. The jump competition
will begin at 8 a.m. Sunday.
Cattle spread near Houston
Somozas own Texas ranch
United Press International
HEMPSTEAD — Relatives of
Anastasio Somoza own a 1,200-acre
cattle ranch west of Houston where
the former Nicaraguan president
apparently planned an experimental
feeding program before he was re
moved from office, a cattle dealer
and court records disclosed.
The Santa Isabel Ranch was sold
by Houston businessman Wiliam S.
Farish III for $1.1 million cash
through Sodinella International, a
Dutch Antilles based company rep
resenting two Somoza nephews,
said Bill Sartwelle, executive vice
president of the Port City Stoc
kyards at Sealy.
Workers at the ranch said the
nephews, Luis Somoza of Houston
and Bernabe Somoza of New York
City, regularly visit on weekend and
holidays.
“We weren’t too concerned about
whose money it was because it was a
cash transaction,” said R.A. Seale
Jr., a lawyer involved.
Sartwelle said Somoza visited
Texas in 1972 and 1973 and pro
posed a program whereby the stoc
kyard would buy livestock and feed
them different rations to see which
worked best.

INTRODUCING THE PROFESSIONAL HP-41C
A CALCULATOR. A SYSTEM. A WHOLE NEW STANDARD.
Pulsating pulsars!
The new HP-41C has more than any handheld pro
grammable Hewlett-Packard has ever offered.
More capability, flexibility, easy-to-use features and
options: Plug-in Memory Modules — for storing
programs and data; and “extra smart” Card Reader;
a Printer; The Wand — a new input device; and
Application Modules —preprogrammed solutions
to all kinds of problems. The HP-41C is a system
you can grow with. You can start with the basic
handheld unit and add on options as you need them.
The HP-41C handheld unit has a 12-character,
LCD display with alphanumeric capability. So
you can name and label programs, functions, vari
ables, constants, and prompt for data with words
or sentences. Plus: over 130 resident functions; con
tinuous memory; more than 400 lines of program
memory or 63 data storage registers — expandable
to over 2,000 lines or 319 registers with Memory
Modules.
Great galaxies! The HP-41C also lets you
assign a function to any keyboard location you
want: any standard function; any programs you’ve
written; or programs in Application Modules.
The HP-41C really is a new standard of
design for all handheld calculators. But is it right
for you? Zip over to your nearest HP dealer for
a “hands-on” demonstration — and for a free copy
of HP’s booklet, “A buyer’s guide to HP profes
sional calculators!’ For the address,CALL TOLL-
