Reagan to visit Dallas
United Press International
SANTA BARBARA — President
Reagan, facing a barrage of criticism
for an upsurge in unemployment, in
tends to stress his “dramatic progress”
in lowering interest rates and infla
tion in the waning weeks of the con
gressional campaign, aides indicate.
After spending a relaxed weekend
at his mountaintop ranch, Reagan
flies to Dallas today for two political
appearances in support of Republi
can senatorial candidate Rep. James
Collins, who has an uphill battle
against incumbent Democrat Lloyd
Bentsen.
Afterwards Reagan will head back
to Washington, where he will spend
the rest of the week, highlighted by a
nationally broadcast “progress re
port” on the economy at 7:30 p.m.
EDT Wednesday.
White House spokesman Larry
Speakes has labeled the address “non
partisan,” but speaker Thomas
O’Neill already has made a protest to
all three major networks for giving
Reagan time for what he calls “a pa
tently political address for an elec
tion.”
NBC said it will air the address, but
a spokesman for CBS said “no final
decision” had been made although it
was “likely” the network will carry the
address. ABC said it was undecided.
The harshest criticism for Reagan
Sunday came from AFL-CIO Presi
dent Lane Kirkland.
“Never before in history have two
crack-brained theories like supply-
side economics and cultist monetar
ism had a more extensive trial and
been proved so wrong, to the great
harm of so many people so quickly,”
said Kirkland during an appearance
on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”
Chief of Staff James Baker said in a
broadcast on ABC-TV Sunday that
Reagan deplores the 10.1 percent un
employment “and we’re going to do
what we can to remedy that situation.”
But, he added, “We’re making dra
matic progress on two fronts — infla
tion has been reduced by over 50 per
cent, and interest rates are down by
some 40 percent.”
Baker also insisted that the 11.3
million people out of work would not
be a dramatic election issue or “a
watershed event” as far as the ballot
ing on Nov. 2 is concerned.
He said the administration does
not believe it will be hurt badly be
cause it had been anticipated for some
time that the jobless rate would top 10
percent.
Furthermore, he said that “the 99
to 100 million Americans who are em
ployed are considerably better off
than they were two years ago by
reason of increased purchase power.
“Their taxes are down and infla
tion is down, and they’ve got more
real take-home pay,” he added.
Reagan’s political advisers and the
GOP campaign committees were
working out the final stages of the
president’s participation in the cam
paign.
So far, only one other date has been
set for the president to travel. He will
fly to Peroria, Ill., Oct. 20 for an
appearance in support of Rep. Bob
Michel, the House Republican leader,
and the following morning will fly to
Omaha, Neb.

Bachelor's life changed
by PJ. Fowler
Battalion Reporter
Greg Carter leads a normal
type of life of a sophomore
health major — or he did until
Sept. 28.
That's when 20 year old Car
ter walked away from Graham's
Central Station with a new
stereo system and the title of
Brvan-College Station's Most
Eligible Bachelor. Carter says
now his life has changed.
Carter, who is from Lubbock,
said the contest, cosponsored by
Graham's Central Station and
WTAW radio, gave him a
chance to meet people. Not only
did he meet the other contes
tants, but also people from the
audience. He is often
approached by people, females
in particular, that remember
him from the competition.
Carter, along with about 100
other applicants were asked to
fill out an entry form on appear-
ence description and personal
ity traits. The forms were gone
over by four judges individual
ly, who selected 23 young men
for the preliminary round that
"When they
announced my name, it
was like somebody hit
mein the face. I couldn't
believe it." — Eligible
Bachelor Greg Carter
was held Sept. 21. From those
semi-finalists, 10 were selected
to compete in the finals on Sept.
28.
Carter, who entered the con
test at the prompting of several
Greg Carter
friends and a couple of waitres
ses at Graham's, said he's get
ting used to the word "eligible."
"My brother and friends call
me 'Mr. Eligible', and at work
(Julie's Place) I'm the 'Eligible
Cook.'"
He had second thoughts after
he entered the contest. Carter
said, but when he heard about
the prizes he realized he had lit
tle to lose and a lot to gain. In
deed he did.
barter's prize was a Sher
wood fully automated remote
control stereo system which in
cludes an amplifier, pre
amplifier, turntable, cassete
deck, and 2 Acculab speakers.
Carter said the stereo is great.
"It was a fine prize," he said.
"It sounds great, and it's a lot of
fun. You can sit on the couch
and play the turn table, a casset
te, or the radio without getting
up."
Carter was selected by the
four judges on appearence,
composure and personality.
Appearence was based on
grooming and dress. Compo
sure was based on the attitude
and state of the contestant. Per
sonality was based on how the
contestant answered questions
asked him by the Mistress of
Ceremonies, Neoma Salamon,
from KBTX TV.
The judges were Mary Mike
Hatcher from WTAW radio;
Teddie Sue Herron, "Cowgirl
10"; Keely Santerre, Miss Fort
Worth; and Gina Gieger, Miss
Texas A&M.
Carter said he almost was
overcome when he was
annouced the winner.
"After the second runner up
and the first runner up had been
announced, I set myself up to
congratulate the winner. When
they announced my name, it
was like somebody hit me in the
face. I couldn't believe it," he
said.
Carter gave credit for his win
ning to his appearence and his
attitude.
"I just decided to have fun
and tried not to get nervous," he
said. "When Neoma (Salamon)
asked for me to come on stage
for my question, I just smiled
and tried to look a little cocky,
but not over-confident. I
couldn't even hear the crowd's
response. It was like all I heard
roaring. My ears were numb
and my knees were weak."
Carter said he was very im
pressed with the way things
were run. "In the preliminaries,
you had to answer the question
real fast; you didn't have much
time at all, probably because of
how many of us there were. But
in the finals they gave you more
time."

“In the first place, we are now en

men and sophomores are being pro
vided that time to study. Our senior
class is dedicated to that.”
Burton has high hopes for the new
faculty adviser program, in which 44
faculty members have volunteered to
serve as advisers to Corps outfits. The
commandant cited an especially
gifted incoming class as another
reason why he expects the Corps to
improve academically.
“I think it’s clear to our seniors and
our juniors that these freshmen are a
