Camp gives ill kids hope
United Press International
GAINESVILLE — It’s called
“Esparanza,” Spanish for hope,
and is the gift of country air and
sunshine to 68 seriously ill chil
dren from a man whose disease
killed him.
Esparanza is a north Texas
camp for young cancer patients.
“Some of the children attend
ing the camp need a form of che
motherapy,” said Peggy Sartain,
a doctor at the Children’s Medic
al Center in Dallas and camp
counselor. “Several have com
pleted their course of treat
ment.”
Camp expenses were under
written by a legacy from Robert
Bridewell, a Dallas businessman,
41, who died last year of cancer.
He bequeathed money to give
young cancer patients an oppor
tunity to sleep under the stars,
hike and fish.
Not all greeted the country
life with enthusiasm.
“I don’t like worms,”
lamented Paula Marshall, 7, suf
fering from an acute form of
leukemia. “I think they’re
nasty.”
Camp coordinator Sally Fran
cis said, “This is the first camp
ing opportunity for many of the
children. A first chance for some
to get to know other children
with cancer.
“Although they may cross
paths at the clinic, it’s not the
type of environment where the
kids can build friendships,” she
said.
The one-week term Camp
Esparanza last week was such a
success, she said, the Children’s
Medical Center plans to expand
the program to two weeks next
year.
Kemp said the camp gave the
young patients a chance to be
children.

by Tim Ward
Battalion Reporter
Concern over traffic prob
lems has delayed the Brazos Sav
ings Association’s plans for an
automatic teller machine at
Texas Avenue and Millers Lane.
The College Station Planning
and Zoning Commission has
asked for further study of traffic
patterns at the Millers Lane site
and at the College Station
branch of Brazos Savings at
Southwest Parkway and Texas
Avenue.
Thursday’s commission meeting
during which two other Brazos
Savings proposals were
approved with modifications.
The commission approved
construction of a 12-lane drive-
thru facility in the Ashford
Square subdivision. The
approval was tagged with the
fire marshall’s recommendation
of widening the proposed nine-
foot wide lanes to 20 feet, to give
emergency vehicles easy access.
The commission also
approved expansion plans for

here is well-trained and our acti
vities with the kids are flexible.
“We want to teach them some
thing in one week,” she said, “to
feel accomplished, to make deci
sions. The parents will just have
to find out after the fact.”
Camp activities included arts
and crafts, canoeing, archery
and fishing.
Glenn Hillhouse, 11, counts
himself lucky for hooking a fish
the first day of camp. The sixth-
grader, undergoing treatment
for Ewing’s sarcoma, a rare form
of bone marrow cancer, said he
can’t wait to return next year to
improve his record.
“I’m really excited about
being here.”

Fines for loitering raised |
to fight prostitution increas
United Press International
AUSTIN — Arrest records
indicate prostitutes from all
parts of the country have been
practicing their trade in the
capitol city, and police have re
sponded by increasing fines and
beefing up street patrols.
According to Austin Police
Capt. Gilbert Miller, there were
more prostitution-related
arrests in the first half of 1983
than in all of 1982.
He said female officers would
begin acting as decoys to arrest
males who solicit prostitutes. In
addition, the bond for people
caught loitering, a frequent
charge against prostitutes who
are not caught openly soliciting,
was raised from $36 to $ 156.
“We’ve had numerous com
plaints from people who’ve been
harassed and solicited by them,”
Miller said. “In one case, they
solicited a group of Boy Scouts.
We’ve also had reports of them
soliciting men who were down
town with their wivesJ
