Redheads form world club
United Press International
LAGUNA HILLS, Calif. —
Red-haired people have reason
to keep their carrot tops held
high.
Steve Douglas, a piano player
who sold his $4,000 baby grand
and other musical equipment to
found Redheads International,
is setting out on a campaign to
promote red-hairfed pride.
Douglas has ordered red
head bumper stickers and mem
bership cards along with T-
shirts bearing the Redheads In
ternational logo.
He rented a cubbyhole of f ice
in Laguna Hills, in Orange
County, and is gearing up for an
Oct. 23 gathering of redheads.
Douglas, who quit his band to
launch the club, said more than
1,009 redheads have responded
to ads in several national and
local publications, paying $10
each to join the club. He said
several chapters have been
formed!
Tacked on the bulletin board
is a letter to “Dear Abby” f rom a
man who complained he
couldn’t find a girl because of
“the terrible curse of being a
redhead.” He asked if there was
a club for redheads he could
join.
Abby didn’t know of any
clubs, prompting Douglas to
write a letter saying it wasn’t a
curse to be a redhead and told
her about Redheads Interna
tional.
“Did you know George
Washington and Thomas Jef
ferson were redheads?” Douglas
asked. Other famous red-haired
people were Nero, Napoleon,
Henry VIII, Winston Churchill,
Sarah Bernhardt and Mark
Twain.

Leaves
(continued from page 1)
A. Phillips, who administers the
Faculty Academic Study Prog
ram, emphasized that a prog
ram that only can fund four de
velopment leaves a year is far too
small for a university the size of
Texas A&M.
“Only 15 people applied for
leaves this year,” Phillips said.
“Word was out on the streets
that there wasn’t much money
for the program. So most people
figured they didn’t have a
chance and didn’t apply.”
The “word on the streets” said
the amount of money available
Tor faculty development leaves
had been cut in half. The Asso
ciation of Former Students with
drew its support this year after
increasing the number and
amount of achievement awards
it presents to faculty. The De
velopment Foundation now
provides sole support for the
program, contributing about
$93,500 a year.
Part of the problem of obtain
ing funds, from either private or
public sources, for development
leaves can be attributed to an im
age problem, Phillips said.
.? “The concept of the faculty
development leave, at least in
this state, has apparently taken
on something of an unfortunate
connotation,” he said. “Legisla
tors and perhaps others,
perhaps even members of the
Association of Former Students,
have assumed that... the profes
sor is given a semester off to do
nothing, which is absolutely and
totally opposite of what is really
intended to be the function of
this program.
“(A leave) isn’t a time to go sit
under a tree and look at the
birds. It’s a time to refresh your
self, renew yourself by study, by
writing, by taking a fresh look at
your Field or at new fields of in
terest. It ... gives a faculty mem
ber an opportunity to recharge
his or her batteries.”
Development leaves aren’t
the only means available for fa
culty members who wish to take
a leave from the University. Em
ployees may accept grants for
study, research or travel from
the government, industries, cor
porations or foundations.
But a university’s image is
tied in with its leave program,
Phillips said. The lack of an ex
tensive program could harm a
university’s chances of recruit
ing faculty, he said.
“It’s a deterrent to a faculty
member who has it (a leave
program) elsewhere to come to
an institution that doesn’t have
one,” Phillips said. “So he thinks
twice about making a move.”
One person who could be
thinking twice about making a
move to Texas A&M is Nobel
Prize-winner Dr. Sheldon
Glashow of Harvard University.
In 1979, Glashow shared a
Nobel Prize in physics with two
other men for contributions to a
unified theory of interactions,
which deals with forces like
gravity, electromagnetics and
the forces that bond atoms.
Glashow will receive a year
long sabbatical from Harvard in
September 1983. During his
sabbatical, University officials
want him to come to Texas A&M
as a visiting professor, Phillips
said. Glashow has not
announced whether he will
come to Texas A&M.
“We want to bring him and
one of his bright, young pro-

tegees down here if we can,”
Phillips said. “But we ought to
have a program to attract that
kind of person to stay because if
we don’t, we aren’t going to get
that sort of fellow.
