A&M offers new services
Health is goal of program
by Ronnie Crocker
Battalion Staff
The Student Wellness Prog
ram at Texas A&M is now oper
ating to aid students in main
taining good health in every
aspect of their lives, including
physical, mental, spiritual and
emotional health.
Dr. Larry Roe, of the Student
Counseling Service and head of
the advisory committee to the
Student Wellness Program, says
the program will help students
learn to be healthy and have as
much control over their health
as possible.
When people do get sick or
need help, the program will
teach them to use doctors, coun
selors and ministers more effec
tively, he says.
As of now the program offers
two main services — the “Well
line” and the Lifestyle Inven
tory.
The Well-line is a referral
service. Students can call 845-
WELL and receive information
about various health-related ser
vices available at Texas A&M,
but no counseling is done over
the phone.
The line, which is staffed by
two Texas A&M health and phy
sical education doctoral stu
dents, is operated from 8 a.m. to
5 p.m. Monday through Friday
and is always answered in
person.
One of the jobs of the advis
ory committee is to coordinate
this referral system, Roe says.
Another service offered by
the program is the Lifestyle In
ventory. Roe says it can be taken
by most students in less than an
hour and the results will pin
point possible problem areas in
the person’s life. Advice then
can be of fered on what to do and
where to go about the problem.
The inventory is given
through the health and physical
education department for a $ 10
fee. Information about the test
can be obtained by calling 845-
WELL.
These services are part of a
pilot program for the Texas
A&M campus, Roe says, and
may be expanded if there is posi
tive reaction from students.
The idea for the program ori
ginated in the health and physic
al education department, which
already had such a program for
the community. Roe says some
of the health and physical edu
cation faculty thought it would
be a good idea also to have a
program for the campus.
They contacted Dr. John Kol-
dus, vice president for Student
Services, who appointed Roe to
head a committee to look into
the matter. The committee de
cided to start the pilot program
and called for a study of the
effects on Texas A&M students
to be conducted six months after
the start of the program.
Dr. Glenn Richardson and
Dr. Robert Hurley of the health
and physical education depart
ment are the co-administrators
and head the program in con
junction with the advisory com
mittee. They are in charge of the
day-to-day operation of the
Well-line.
Programs similar to the Stu
dent Wellness Program have
been in existence for several
years at other universities, Roe
says, such as University of Wis
consin at Stevens Point and
Southern Illinois University at
Carbondale.

United Press International
SAN ANTONIO — More
than 100 years ago, the Texas
Rangers used the famed Win
chester 73 rifle to establish law
and order on the wild Texas
frontier.
Today, one of the antique
guns is the focal point of court
action seeking compensation for
the victim of a crime.
Since 1981, a Winchester 73
rille manufactured in Mas
sachusetts in 1882 for the U.S.
Cavalry has been locked up in a
Bexar County Courthouse
vault.
It was used as evidence in the
aggravated assault trial of
Gerald Charles Burdick, 45,
who was convicted of shooting
Kirby councilwoman Clara Wel
ler in the back. The shooting by
the drunken Burdick left Wel
ler, 67, paralyzed from the waist
down.
“It’s ironic it was used to
shoot another official,” District
Court Clerk David Garcia said of
the gun which eventually came
to belong to Burdick’s family.
After the trial, Texas Ran
gers and sheriffs deputies in
San Antonio asked Garcia if they
