In other action, the executive director of Brazos Beautiful Inc., Suzy Terral, showed a slide presentation about the volun teer program and it’s plans to clean up the Brazos County. Terral said the local chapter is sponsored by Keep America Beautiful which so far has had the community’s support. The 120 member group has two objectives: to develop a sys tem to clean up the county, and to develop in the community a larger measure of pride for Bra zos County. In order for the campaign to be a success, Brazos Beautiful Inc. is hoping for cooperation from half the businesses in the county plus 10 percent of the households.

A total of 12,556 students had registered by Friday, Carter said, which is a 2.12 percent in crease over the first class day of the second summer session last year.

Registration “ran smooth as silk,” Carter said, explaining that the weather was nice and that the lines were shorter than usual.

No alternate plans have been discussed in the event the approval of the expansion and move is not granted, she said, because she would like to feel that the plans will be successful. Current growth trends show that the largest growth in the Bryan/College Station area has been in College Station and to ward the south, she said. Be cause of this, the move to Col lege Station would make the hospital a part of that growth. Inexpensive, High Quality Copies Bind your thesis or dissertation in style. Selected hardcovers.
