Student leaders to share
By SHARON D. RENFROW
Battalion Reporter
Student government leaders from
many southern universities will have
a first-time chance to share ideas,
problems and areas of strength at the
Conference On Student Govern
ment Associations to be held at Texas
A&M University Feb. 15-17.
“The main aim of this conference
is to better equip student govern
ments in areas of student services,”
Joe Jordan, programming director
for the conference, said.
Representatives are expected
from 30 schools in Arkansas,
Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma
and Texas.
Along with Texas A&M, six other
universities — North Texas State,
Stephen F. Austin, Southern
Methodist University, Texas Tech
and the University of Houston —
will be sponsoring COSGA.
These six and Baylor University
met at TCU in November and plan
ned the conference, Jordan said, dis
cussing workshop topics and setting
the tone for the conference.
“We had a list of 20 topics from
each of the invited schools and out of
those we chose the workshops,” he
said.
The workshops will focus on stu
dent services, student representa
tion and student-advisor communi
cation. Dr. Carolyn Adair, Texas
A&M’s director of student activities
and the student body advisor, will
lead the advisor workshop in Room
203 of the Memorial Student Center.
Other workshops will be held on the
fifth and sixth floors of Rudder
Tower.
The central purpose of COSGA,
Jordan said, is to bring student gov
ernment representatives together to
learn new ideas and have a good
time.

snaps over
Valentine
gift.
Dear Ann:
Athletically I’m an All-
American. Romantically
I’m a nerd. I’m in love
with a fox. But the com
petition is rough. What’ll I
give her for Valentine’s Day?
Nervously Yours,
Chicken Hunk
Dear Chicken:
Don’t punt. Send her
flowers. It’s probably the
best play you ever made.
And the easiest. Just go to
your nearest FTD Florist.
He has the perfect
Valentine gift. A beautiful
bouquet that comes in a
special bud vase. Even
better, you can afford it.
Remember, when in
doubt, rely on the magic of
flowers. It’s the only way a
chicken can catch a fox.
Good hunting.
Helping you say it right.
The FTD Valentine Bud Vase is
usually available for less than
$10.00. As an. independent
businessman, each FTD Florist
sets his own prices. Service
charges and delivery may be
additional. ®1981 Florists^

Student's car
totaled in blaze
Lee Flagg didn’t know what to think when someone knocked on his
door late Saturday night and yelled that his car was on fire.
“I went running out there and sure enough, it was flaming,” Flagg,
an industrial engineering major, said.
Flagg’s car was destroyed by a fire that began Saturday night about
11:30, only 30 minutes after he had parked it in the Military Sciences
Building parking lot.
The fire was first reported to the Cadet Corps guard room by a group
of freshmen, said Kyle Basinger, cadet officer of the day.
Basinger found smoke coming from under the hood and contacted
the College Station Fire Department. He returned to find the car’s
front end flaming.
Fire department spokesman Allen Dodson said Sunday the cause of
the fire is still under investigation.
