Juntos Society
returns to A&M
by Angel Stokes
Battalion Staff
National Library Week acti
vities at Texas A&M will con
clude Saturday with the orga
nizational meeting of the Jun
tos Society at Sterling C. Evans
Library.
The Juntos Society is not
new to Texas A&M, said
Dawn Wakefield, a member
of the University Library De
velopment Council. Between
1925 and 1949, the Juntos was
a select group whose members
were selected by the Universi
ty president.
The Juntos was a way for
students and faculty to gather
informally to discuss litera
ture of common interest,
Wakefield said. The group
met in the homes of faculty
members because many of
them lived on campus.
The idea to reorganize the
group came from Sterling C.
Evans, the library’s namesake,
who had been a member of
the group when he was a stu
dent here, Wakefield said.
The new group of Juntos
will be open to all students and
faculty. Reading topics to be
discussed by the group will be
decided according to reader
interest, Wakefield said.
The organizational meet
ing will be at 1:45 p.m. Satur
day in 204C Evans Library.

A task force of six staff mem
bers from the Texas A&M De
partment of Student Services
and two students are studying
guidelines for on-campus com
mercial advertising.
Student legal advisor Daniel
K. Usiak, a member of the task
force, said Wednesday the
group was formed in March af
ter a national company offered
to donate scoreboards for the in
tramural fields in exchange for
five-year advertising space on
the boards.
Although the Intramural
Office would make the final de
cision as to who would be
allowed to use the ad space on
the $5,000 scoreboards, the
company donating them would
make initial contact with pros
pective advertisers, Usiak said.
Some on-campus commercial
advertising is already allowed,
he said. For example, beer dis
tributors who sponsor parties or
baseball games display company
banners on dormitories or in the
Memorial Student Center.
Currently, such instances are
handled individually since no
University policy or regulations
dictate how such matters are to
be handled, Usiak said.
Some requests for advertising
are accepted and others are re
jected. Usiak said a policy is
needed to insure consistent re
sponses to these requests.
“My main concern is finding a
policy that could be enforced in
the courts,” Usiak said.
The task force could submit
policy recommendations by De
cember, he said.
Support for ethics
commission voiced
United Press International
AUSTIN — Former House
Speaker Bill Clayton told a Sen
ate committee Thursday that
Texas should join 34 other states
in creating an ethics commission
to oversee the activities of public
officials.
Clayton testified before the
Subcommittee of State Affairs
on Ethics and Campaign Re
form, which is studying 18 bills
covering ethics commissions and
campaign finances.
“A lot of ethics questions to
day are never settled,” said
Clayton. “They are left with
question marks.”

School activities cut back
United Press International
MAGNOLIA — Students
who want to play in the band,
sing in the choir or play football
in this small town will have to do
so at their own expense next
year.
The Magnolia Independent
School District Board voted 4-3
Tuesday to eliminate all school-
sponsored extracurricular acti
vities in response to an April 2
tax-limitation election which cut
$1 million from next year’s
budget.
Voters in the town north of
Houston voted to roll back the
school system’s property tax
rates. Tax cut proponents also
elected three school board mem
bers, all of whom voted against
the cuts.
“The kids are really going to
be disappointed,” said Doug
Reed, a biology teacher and
girls’ basketball coach. “I blame
the people who voted for the tax
rollback.”
“More than taxes were rolled
back. T he education clock also
was rolled back for many of our
fine students,” said music dire
ctor Glynn Denty, whose job will
he eliminated.
Because of the tax rollback
election, the system’s current
property tax rate of $1.35 per
$100 valuation will be rolled
back to a $1.10. Officials said
they had to trim about $ 1 million
from the schools’ $8.2 million
budget next year.
In addition to cutting out
school-sponsored extract
lar activities like
sports, board spokesmer
busing will have to herd
and 36 jobs will have toll
minated.
11 was suggested student
could finance the extract
lar activities, but Supeiii
dent Les Tucker said slali
forbids the use ofstudentft
pay salaries needed to runt
ty sports, band and clioirj
rams.
