He said he came up with the idea when he was offered the own ership of an Illinois service station where he had worked for 15 years. But he said he wanted to stay in mechanics and to be his own boss. Butler said he came here be cause his wife was from Navasota, and he had been stationed pre viously at Bryan Air Force Base, where he worked as an aircraft mechanic. Butler, 42, said that when he began his business in 1974, he was on call 24 hours a day for car repair appointments. He worked every Meetings set for candidates Candidates for the 1981 general election must attend a mandatory meeting, which will be held after they have filed for a particular position, Greg Dew, executive vice president for Student Gov ernment, said Wednesday. In addition to the positions that are unfilled, 38 other positions have only one person running. The meetings will be held March 22 and 23 at 7:30 p.m. in the 110 Harrington Classroom Center. Dew said the campaign guidelines for candidates will be discussed. He stressed that all candidates, including write-in candidates, must attend to be con sidered formal candidates. Dew said it’s “legal” to cam paign for a write-in candidate; however, his name will not appear on the ballot. He also said there are several positions in the student senate without filings. These include: one senior and one graduate stu dent representative from the Col lege of Liberal Arts; one College of Medicine representative at-large; one University Apartment repre sentative; Ohe representative 6f Keathley, Fowler and Hughes halls and the modular dorms. Also open are two places for off- campus Ward 2 representatives and one representative of Ward 3. Ward 2 is the area south of Univer sity Drive and west of Texas Ave nue. Ward 3 is north of University Drive and east of Texas Avenue. Four spaces for off-campus gra duate student representatives are open; candidates don’t need to live in a particular ward, he said. Dew said there are 15 positions open in the Graduate Student Council. These include: one rep resentative from the College of Science and one from the College of Veterinary Medicine; two from the colleges of Education, En gineering, Geosciences and Li beral Arts and five from the Col lege of Agriculture. Candidates are allowed a $75 campaign budget, instead of the $65 limit printed in the general election regulations handbook. Dew said the $65 limit was a mis print. Election dates are March 31 and April 1. day of the week. He advertised by passing out fliers and taking out small ads in the newspaper. Two years later he worked six days a week; two years after that he cut his work load to the present 12 hours a day, five days a week. After he had worked a while, word-of-mouth was the best advertiser for him, Butler said. He said he had once tried work- ftm Tuesday all seals $1.00 ALTERED SUITES » 7:40 9:40 846-6714 ^ggs^Hopgmc^enter^AcTOSSfronij^&N STIR m CRAZY 7:30 9:45 MANOR EAST 3 MANOR EAST MALL 823-8300 THE YEAR’S #l COMEDY SMASH! "Lily Tomlin is one , of the funniest TLIC people alive." lilt INCREDIBLE SHRINKING “SCANNERS” A new high in being low down ing with a partner, but it didn’t work out. He said working with a partner would be difficult because he wouldn’t be able to ensure the quality of work he wants. Butler charges $7 base fee for Bryan, $8 base fee for College Sta tion plus $12 an hour. If extra parts are needed, he carries replace ments in his van or he will buy parts from the closest auto parts shop and add the cost to the bill. Butler has four children, in cluding a 17-year-old boy who shares his father’s interest in mechanics. “Hopefully my son will take over my business one of these days, if he wants it,” he said. “I enjoy what I do but the older I get the less I enjoy it. ” He folded his grease-stained hands on the table and said it’s getting harder to keep up with new car models be cause of additions like pollution control devices. Butler said he thinks auto en gineers should be mechanics first. “You wonder where they get those engineers,” he said with a faint smile. “Seems like they build things to wear out, not to last — I could be wrong.” Ready For More Treats from the (andie’f Store?

Recognized with Archimedes and Newton as one of the three greatest mathematicians, Karl Gauss also pioneered math in astronomy, gravitation, elec tricity and magnetism. E-Systems engineers are continuing in his foot steps today. They are pioneering technology and solving some of the world’s toughest problems in electronic transmission and signal-reception in an interference and noise background using basic Gaussian concepts. E-Systems "pioneer ing” in communications, data, antenna, intelligence and reconnaissance proj ects results in systems that are often the first-of-a-kind in the world.
