Magna Carta spawns
American freedoms
St
by Jennifer Carr
Battalion Staff
The liberties Americans enjoy
today have their roots in the
Magna Carta, a Houston attor
ney said Sunday night in a
speech sponsored by MSC Great
Issues and MSC Political Forum.
William Ballew, who has
served as past president of the
Houston Philosophical Society
and the Texas Bill of Rights
Foundation, said the Magna
Carta is “a vastly important part
of our heritage,” although he
said our conception of rights is
not the same as the medieval
$r‘
concept.
The rights Kingjohn granted
to the barons at Runnymede in
1215 were granted only to land
ed Englishmen, Ballew said.
They were narrow in scope and
were not freely given. Instead,
the barons owed duties to the
king in return for their rights.
Today, all Americans are
granted rights under the Consti
tution, he said.
Ballew pointed out several
similarities between the rights
granted in the Magna Carta and
those in the U.S. Bill of Rights.

Both grant that men shall be
judged on the degree of their
offenses, Ballew said, and no

offenses except through the

Battalion Reporter
Students from nine Texas col
leges and six state high schools
will visit Texas A&M University
on Friday to participate in the
University’s first Undergradu
ate Chemical Research Confer
ence and High School Confer
ence on Chemistry.
The conference, sponsored
by the Undergraduate Chemis
try Club, is the first of its kind to
include high school students,
Dr. John Hogg, club adviser,
said.
The purpose of including the
high school students is to give
them a look at Texas A&M, the
Department of Chemistry and
the undergraduate world at col
lege.
“Hopefully we’ll answer lots
of questions students may have
about the field,” Hogg said,
“and attract more chemistry stu
dents to A&M.”
A question-and-answer
panel, planned for the high
school students, will consist of
six members: one undergradu
ate chemistry major, one gradu
ate chemistry major, two che
mistry department faculty and
two industrial representatives.
Hogg said the conference
should he interesting not only to
high school students, but also to
undergraduates who want to
major in chemistry but do not
know its applications.
Twenty-eight undergradu
ates — fifteen from Texas A&M
— will present research papers
in competition for six $50 prizes.
Each 20-minute presentation
will be judged primarily on ori
ginality, clarity, professionalism
and the logic of its conclusion.
Greg York, vice-president of
the Texas A&M Undergraduate
Chemistry Club, said: “One big
advantage to the
being able to present
