B “If we don’t have enough adultsupervision, we will have to turn away some of the girls who have applied,” she said. I Two volunteers are needed to assist each of the 16 group leaders. Volunteers can work for a portion of the camp ses sion if they cannot work for the whole session. A free nursery will be provided for the children of volunteers, Elder said. ^ “Gift of Water” is the theme for this camp session. Camp staff will focus all activities and crafts on water conserva tion, resources and uses, she said. “They’ll learn to appreciate water and how important it is to conserve it,” she said. Each group will compete to see which can conserve the most water during the session, she said. The groups each will be assigned a project related to the water theme and each group will research a project about the importance and processes of water. One of the water projects will be to make terrariums to teach campers about photo synthesis and the water cycle. Consultants from Texas A&M University will instruct the campers on several sub jects including environmental interpretation and seafood technology. Financial assistance is avail able for campers who need it. Application forms for the camp are available from the Girl Scouts or from Marie Bell at 846-0057. Volunteers can call Harriet Elliott at 823-7254 for more information. ray raises, grants on council agenda I College Station City Council pernbers discussed across-the- board pay raises in a work ses- jsion Wednesday night and will jformally present the idea at tonight’s public hearing. I The meeting will start at 7 p.m. in the council chambers. I The proposed pay increases, which will range from 6 percent to 8 percent, are designed to compensate employees for cost- pf-living increases, councilman Tony Jones said. * In addition, a public hearing to discuss how to use the |317,000 community develop ment grant will be held. Tentative figures authorize $ 180,000 for housing rehabilita tion in the form of direct grants and loan subsidies. Other tentative costs include $90,000 for street improve ments, $21,000 for the rehabili tation of rental properties and the balance for a contingency fund. In other business, the council will consider an ordinance allowing Wood Energy to drill an oil well on city property. The proposed site for the well is in the University Park subdivision north of the Fedmart shopping center.

The students are Agrispeak ers — part of a program, pat terned partly after similar groups at other universities that started in the fall of 1980. Most speakers in the group have been state or area Future Farmers of America officers and have considerable experience in public speaking, said Agrispeak er Randy Green, a senior agri cultural journalism major. “It (Agrispeakers) was estab lished with the idea of creating a bureau to provide speeches on agriculture topics,” Green said. “As speakers, we try to give a good speech, make people think about the topic, as well as boost the image of the University. We hope that as Texas A&M stu dents in the College of Agricul ture we have something worth while to say. “We are more than motiva tors and cheerers-on; we try to put meat in our talks and tell people the real concerns in agri culture. “In many towns ... there are a lot of people who don’t know where their food comes from. opt make them more aware of agri culture. We meet a lot of very nice people.” partici- for the Agrispeakers don’t pate in the program money, Green said. “There is a mileage fee, which is the same state employees re ceive, and a small speaking fee,” he said. “This isn’t much after you think of the time spent writ ing and practicing the speech, time on the road, and delivery.” Dr. Herman Brown, profes sor of agricultural education, is the group’s adviser. Agrispeakers are available to speak to FFA and other school groups, 4-H clubs, business and tarm groups, civic clubs and other organizations.
