The House General Investigating Committee called Fred McCain, the NTSU coliseum director, as the first witness in what is expected to be several days of public questioning. McCain and his former secretary, Sherry Thomas of Corpus Christi, said they felt pressure from the office of former NTSU President C. C. “Jetter” Nolen to reduce the amount charged to Hill’s campaign for use of the campus facility. Thomas said some records were missing from school files on the Aug. 5 rally — including one which would have included her preliminary calcu lations of the rally costs at close to $2,000. McCain said he was told the Young Democrats would officially sponsor the rally. Campus groups get a reduced rate and the group only had $250 to spend. Hill s campaign was charged $383 — which Thomas testified did not include normal clean-up costs. Nolen, who resigned April 12 shortly after legislators began inves tigating NTSU finances, was among 20 witnesses the committee plans to question. Rep. Richard Slack, D-Pecos, said there was nothing political about the selection of the Hill incident as the first item on the hearing agenda. “We re building toward a climax rather than starting with a climax,” Slack said. “It gets progressively more serious." Slack said the committee will hold night meetings if necessary to com plete the hearings this week. The widow of former music profes sor Floyd Graham told reporters she wants legislators to find out what happened to money contributed to a memorial fund placed under Nolen’s authority. Pat Graham said she has been un able to obtain a list of contributions to the Floyd Graham Society Fund and can get no satisfactory explana tion for how donations of more than COURTS UNIVERSITY SHOE SERVICE “Expert boot and shoe repair” 104 College Main Northgate MSC AGGIE CINEMA$*8*8M%Ws.» ; : r •V. 846-6785 (formerly Holiks) SUNDAY JANUARY 20 •• O.MIMSC AGGIE dJVEMAflRmmm?? ••••* ••••* • •••« ••••* ••••* ••••* ••••* ••••* ••••* #•••• ••••» ••••* #•••• ••••* ••••* ••••* ••••« ••••* ••••* •••- ••••> MSC CEPHEID VARIABLE AND MSC AGGIE CINEMA PRESENT ••••• ••••* ••••* ••••* ••••* •••>> ••••* ••••* #•••• ••••* ••••* ••••* ••a... ••••* ••••* ••••* ••••* ••a.. ••a*. ••a»« ••a*. ••a*. ••••» • •••* ••••» ••aa. ••a*. ••a». ••aa. ••aa. ••aa. ••aa. • •aa. • •aa. • •aa. ••aa. • •aa. • •aa. ••a., ••aa. • •aa. • •aa. • •aa. ••aa. • •aa. • •aa. • •aa. • •aa. ••aa. ••aa. • •aa. • •aa. • •aa. • •a., ••aa.. ••a., ••aa.. ••a., ••aa.. • •aa.. ••aa.. • •aa.. • •aa.. • •aa.. • •aa.. • •a... • •aa.. • •aa.. • •aa.. • •aa.. ••aa.. ••aa.. ••a... 1979 20TH CENTURY-FOX TWENTIETH CENTURY-FOX PRESENTS ALIEN TOM SKERRITT SIGOURNEY WEAVER VERONICA CARTWRIGHT HARRY DEAN STANTON JOHN HURT IAN HOLM ana YAPHET KOTTOSaWr EXECUTIVE PRODUCER RONALD SHUSETT PRODUCED BY GORDON CARROLL, DAVID GILER and WALTER HILL DIRECTED BY RIDLEY SCOTT STORY BY DAN O BANNON and RONALD SHUSETT SCREENPLAY BY DAN O BANNON MUSIC JERRY GOLDSMITH PANAVISION® EASTMAN KODAK COLOR * PRINTS BY DELUXE^ FyoMM dolbystereo | 1 [ * H PICTURE SOUNDTRACK AVAILABLE 0 R PARENT OR ADULT GUARDIAN FRIDAY, JANUARY 18 — 7:30 & 9:45 P.M.
