WHAT IS A
PARALEGAL CAREER?
A paralegal career is one of the most exciting new careers
for college graduates.
A paralegal is a lawyer’s assistant who is able to domany
tasks traditionally done by attorneys. Not a clerical or a
secretarial role, the paralegal is a new legal specialty with
excellent job opportunities in law firms, corporate legal
departments and banks.
Three months of intensive training in courses taught by law
professors and lawyers can give you the skills to interview
witnesses, conduct legal research, prepare pleadings, draft
transaction documents and prepare cases for trial all under
the supervision of an attorney.
The Basic Legal Assistant Course begins June 2, 1980. In
addition to the three-month daytime program, the same
course is offered as an eight-month evening program. A
representative will be at the Career Planning and Placement
Center on Tuesday, April 1, 1980.

country since the beginning of the
softball season, Coach Bill Gallo
way’s Aggie softball has finally
moved up and is ranked No. 2 this

Pomona in a double-header, five
games with previously No. 1-ranked
Texas Woman’s University, played a
twinbill with No.-4 UCLA, and also

ranked Cal-State Fullerton.
So far, the Aggies success can be
contributed to the pitching staff,
which has combined for 10 shutouts
in 21 games.

ERA of 0.18, struck out 33 batters,
walked eight, and has allowed only
12 runs in the llVa innings she has
pitched.
Texas A&M’s other regular start
ing pticher, Lori Stoll, 7-3, has an
ERA of 0.20, 54 strikouts, 11 walks,
and had allowed eight runs after 64
innings pitched.
Galloway said, “Even though we
have a 16-5 record, I don’t feel we
have peaked yet and that’s a good
spot to be in. I’m pleased with the
No. 2 ranking and it’s good for the
team and the program.”

When the Texas A&M football
team takes the field September 6
against Mississippi, one thing will be
sure: It will be a stronger Aggie
team, due to a weightlifting prog
ram which increased overall team
strength by 47.3 percent.
MikeFlynt, Texas A&M strength
coach, said it has been a little over a
year since he tested the members of
the football team in three basic
weight exercises: the bench press,
the power clean lift and the squat.
Flynt said when he tested the
athletes in March the team showed
an improvement in all the exercises
with a 22 percent increase in the
bench press, a 39 percent increase in
the power clean and an 81 percent
improvement in the squat.
He said he then ranked the players
in order based upon their body
weight and their improvement in the
three exercises.
The top 15 players in order were:
Roger Wiley, Elvis Walker, Kent
Adams, David Hardy, Danny Davis,
Jeff Paine, Keith Balwin, Russell
Labhart, Zach Guthrie, Darrell
Adams, Johnny Hector, Ricky
Lopez, Ronnie James, Ed Patterson
and Temple Aday.
Wiley showed an increase from
303 pounds on the bench press to a
352-pound bench press. He im
proved from 253 pounds in the pow
er clean left to a team record of 325
pounds, and went from 85poundsin
the squat to 495 pounds.
Flynt said he was pleased with the
team’s improvements and the team
would continue to lift throughout the
year.
“The weightlifting program will
continue on a year-round basis," he
said. "We’re lifting right now, and
even when they have the pads on,
they will lift twice a week, Mondays
and Thursdays on an in-season
program.”
Flynt said the players would get
two weeks off during the latter part
of April and the first part of May.
He said after that they would start
back on their off-season program
which will consist of lifting four days
a week through Aug. 1. During the
football season the players will only
lift twice a week.
He said several

Flynt said the wei;
would not only help the
sically but also help their
ances on the field.
“It increases their coordii
their cardiovascular fitness, lleii,

susceptible to injury,”
