I also was very involved with Fellowship of Christian Athletes. The reason 1 want the posi tion of Senior Yell Leader is that I feel I will be able to bring about a sense of equal representation among our student body.

I also plan on doing the best job I can to bring stu dents out en masse to back our athletes. carry these characteristics on to the student body of the University. An individual should keep himself respect able and be regarded highly by his peers. ty and the spirit and unity that surround it. The Aggie yell leader should be a continuous example of Aggie spirit, in spiring all Aggies to have pride in the spirit and tradi tions that make Texas A&M the unique institution that it should be.

As a returning yell leader, I have seen the importance of campus-wide unity and think there should be a lot of emph asis in that direction, but my main goal would be to prom ote Aggie spirit and traditions Loyd Neal finance Corpus Christi I have experience as Fish Camp counselor (1981), sub chairman (1982), chairman (1983), SCONA committee member, planning chairman for SCONA 28, Muster Com mittee, MSC Great Issues and dorm council. I believe that I can be an effective and dynamic repre sentative and leader of Aggie spirit. I have made a special effort to become actively in volved in the events and tradi tions that have put A&M in a class by itself. Because of my knowledge of these traditions, my fierce love of Aggieland and my dedicated participa tion as an active member of the Twelfth Man, I feel that I am qualified to hold the posi tion of senior yell leader.

As yell leader, I would like to take an active role in en couraging greater participa tion at all athletic events, espe cially basketball, baseball and women’s athletics. These sports have yet to reach their potential in terms of sustained crowd support. My major goal, though, would be to pledge a 100 percent commitment to the principles and ideals that this University holds so dear. juniors James C. Becker Jr. management Lake Jackson As a member of the U.S. Marine Corps, I have had the opportunity to get some of the best hands-on leadership ex perience available. My four years in the Marine Corps have provided me with many opportunities to develop my leadership skills.

As a Young Life leader this sum mer, I learned to work better with groups and the import ance of listening. As a resident of Hart Hall, I’ve had the opportunity to work on such activities as bon fire and the Big Event, and have represented the dorm on the Judicial Board for the past three semesters. I’m also in volved with MSC Great Issues, TAMU Abled/Disabled Com mittee and the Endowed Lec ture Series. I, like many other students who care about and work to wards the betterment of A&M, want to be represented. The Corps is certainly an asset to this school, yet to deny the value that more than 30,000 civilians have to offer would be a terrible loss.

My goal as yell leader would be to use tradi tions to keep Aggies unified. Aggie spirit is the bond each
