Due to the power failure on campus Saturday, the final

as the aunt of a fellow student.
The cast for the Texas A&M production includes
Richard Strayer as Charley, Gary Kunkle as Jack, Jill Moore
as Kitty, Becky Hernandez as Amy and Lucien Stavenhagen
as “Charley’s aunt.”
Tickets are $2.50 for students and $3.50 for non-students.

Two Texas A&M faculty members have been named to
the nationwide distinguished lecturer positions sponsored
by the Society of Petroleum Engineers.
Dr. Stephen Holditch, an expert on reservoir stimula

American energy policies on the financing of domestic oil
and gas supplies, were two of the people named to the 11'
lecture positions.
Texas A&M is the only university represented by the
lecturers and the only organization awarded two positions.
Michel Halbouty, internationally renowned Houston
geologist and engineer and a Texas A&M graduate, was
named by the society as distinguished lecturer emeritus.
In the lecturer program, outstanding leaders in the pet
roleum engineering field are selected for a one-year term of
travel abroad addressing engineering societies. Activities are
funded by SPE.

Students plan Thanksgiving feast
Nine Texas A&M students have taken it upon themselves
to sponsor a Thanksgiving dinner for some local children

about five miles outside College Station that has been in
financial trouble for some time and will possibly close at the
end of this year.
In order to help these children and their families, a
Thanksgiving dinner is being given for them on Tuesday.
Food is being donated by families in the Bryan-College Sta
tion area. If you are interested in helping these children and
their families or have food to donate please contact Ned
