The 5-year-old collie appears at all Texas A&M University foot ball games, home and away, flies by private jet, and has a guardian and tailored clothes — originals — specially designed by her guar dians’ parents. But, Reveille just isn’t any star. She’s the American collie mascot of the Texas Aggies. Her guardian and constant campanion, Greg Zachary, said Reveille returned from Georgia undaunted by her co-stars per formance, and is ready for her first home appearance of the year. Reveille receives a new guar dian each year. The honor and official title of mascot corporal is bestowed upon a freshman mem ber of Company E-2 in the Texas A&M corps of cadets. The mascot corporal is chosen at the end of the spring semester and takes Re veille home with him for the sum mer, allowing her time to adjust to her new master. Texas A&M has a special fund of $350 established each year for her dining and health needs. She is loved by her fans, some of whom live in Spence and Briggs dormitories. Those dorms raised $118 for the expense of her plane trip to Georgia. Her round-trip fare was appro ximately $500, and the Associa tion of Former Students contri buted the difference. Reveille has taken a commer cial jet, but found the accommo dations unbearable. “She didn’t like that, so never again,” Zachary said.

When you see that mountain spreading out before you, when you feel it rushing be neath your skis, you know only the excitement of tackling the slope with as much speed and skill as you can muster. Sound good? It does to a lot of Ags — this year’s Ski Club trip to Breck- enridge already has a waiting list for airplane reservations. But don’t de spair — the club is also chartering buses to the resort with space for 86 people. After the buses fill up, club president Trish Hintzel said studetns can carpool to Denver and meet the rest of the group at the airport and still enjoy discounts on the lodgings and lift tickets. Hintzel said the cost of the trip this year, $365 with airfare, is only a little DYER ELECTRONICS CELEBRATES THE The only thing worse than an old television show is a NEW television show, so Dyer invites you to stare at the dark screen and enjoy your favorite music on a new stereo!

The price with bus fare is $315 and Hintzel said it is often the best way to go. “You get to know more poeple that way,” Hintzel said. The bus trip is 22 hours straight through, she said, “except for emergency stops when evereybody gets too crazy to sit still.” The club has many advantages over private skiers. “For one thing,” Hintzel said, “since we start so early making arrangements, we can re serve the best places.” The club has chosen Pine Ridge condominiums, where “you can ski right down to it. ” The savings are substantial when a large group goes together, said Hint zel. The condominiums alone would be $158 per person regularly. Equpi- ment rental is $6.50 per day, instead of a regular $8 to $10.

The first defense satellite is sche duled to be carried aloft by a space shuttle in April 1983, with initial control of the payload at JSC to be taken over by the Air Force center at Sunnyvale, Calif. The Air Force cur rently uses Titan III missiles for launch with full control at Sunny vale. “If we are falling short of their security requirements, they sure need to let us know,” said a JSC spokesman, who added that JSC officials have read the article but have heard no official comps from the Pentagon.
