Bring back memories of the Lone Ranger’s call of, “Hi Ho
Silver?” These two bicycles looked more like unicycles, parked
in this unusual fashion behind Dorm 5 alongside the construc
tion area for the new womens’ dorm.
Student calling guide
service now offered
Had a rough day? Well, maybe a quick call to Dial-a-Joke is just what
you need.
Or maybe you have a personal problem that’s been getting you
down. In that case, maybe a call to Dr. Joyce Brothers for advice would
be in order.
These and other Dial-it services are part of the information found in
the student calling guide being distributed by Southwestern Bell
Telephone Company. Students can pick up a free copy of the guide
near the customer service desk of the MSC bookstore.
Besides other Dial-it services for sports news and weather reports
across the nation, the guide includes times for discount calling rates,
area codes, steps for international calling and instructions for getting a
Bell System Credit Card.
Important campus numbers, a calendar of the school year and Texas
A&M University athletic schedules are also included in the guide.
Twelve pages are also included in the guide for frequently used
phone numbers and addresses.

Farenthold back in Texas;
pledges active political role
United Press International
HOUSTON (UPI) — White-haired Sissy Farenthold
sat in her new, half-unpacked law office Wednesday and
mildly said she expected to be politically active now that
she was back home in Texas, but was uncertain how.
“I feel Til be involved one way or the other; whether
it’ll be electoral politics or not, I just don’t know,” she
said. ‘Tm not trying to be evasive. I just don’t know.”
Then her voice began to rise and her concerns began
to show, indicating the two-time liberal Democrat
gubernatorial candidate changed little during her re
cently ended 4-year stint as president of Wells College
in New York.
“I guess maybe you can call me a peacenik. We’re
going to bankrupt the planet on the armaments race.
And as much as it is (costing) us, developing countries
are in so much worse shape. It’s the overriding issue of
our time.”
Mrs. Farenthold, 53, expresed other concerns: the
tragedy of the world’s refugees, frustrated human
rights. She expressed support for women’s rights and
abortion. She also has strong political interests.
She has campaigned for Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-
Mass., although not in Texas. She finds “dismal” the
impending choice President Carter and Republican
Ronald Reagan.
Mrs. Farenthold is happy to be home in Houston,
where husband George Farenthold, a businessman, re
mained while she was at Wells. They commuted back
and forth to visit each other and their four children.
“It’s my home. It’s where my family is,” she said.
“Houston has a certain vitality. ”
Wells “was a wonderful experience and one I
wouldn’t want to give up. It really meant a lot. But it’s
just not my life.
“I’d given myself three years and three years had
turned into four. It was a good time (to leave). I’d done
the things I’d set out to do. The college was in better
shape. We had a balanced budget.”
Her children are all grown and she and her husband
have moved into a condominium because “I didn’t want
to be involved with housekeeping the first year I was
here.”
As for the long black hair that once was a sort of
trademark, Mrs. Farenthold said it had been turning
white since her 30s — “it runs in the family” — and she
had been dyeing it. She decided to stop two years ago.
“It was when there was talk of hair dye having carci-
nogenics and it dawned on me that it was a foolish way to
go,” she said.
She expects to spend the next few months organizing
her law practice, which she said will be “general prac
tice,” and making speaking engagements.
“It’s starting all over again,” she said. “People are
calling about speaking engagements, so I guess I’ll be
seeing some more of Texas, Lubbock, El Paso, San
Antonio. Here we go again.”
