i The second annual Run
for the Arts will be held Sat
urday, March 3, when two
races sponsored by the MSC'
Opera and Performing Arts
Society and the TAMU Roa-
drunners will be held on the
Texas A&M campus to pro
mote the programs of the two
groups.
I “The purpose is basically to
promote health and the fine
arts,” said Linda Hartman,
coordinator of Run for the
Arts. “It is also to kick off
(OPAS) season ticket sales.”
§ OPAS, which sponsors mu
sic, dance and other fine arts
events on the Texas A&M
campus, and the TAMU Roa-
drunners, a student running
club, sponsored the first Run
for the Arts last year, Hart
man said.
K l She said the idea of a race
to earn publicity for the clubs
originated with last year’s
OPAS chairman, Michael De
wey. A race was chosen to
generate publicity because
there are many runners in
the Bryan-College Station
area.
“There are supposed to be
over 800 runners in the
area,” Hartman said. “We
(OPAS) started working with
the Roadrunners because
they want people to know
they’re here, just like we do.”
About 270 people ran in
the races last year, and the
clubs are planning on 350
participants this year.
One race is 10 kilometers
long, the other five kilome
ters. Both will begin and end
in front of G. Rollie White
Coliseum. Neither race
course leaves the Texas A&M
campus.
“The great thing about the
races is that they’re here on
campus, readily available to
students,” Hartman said.
The races are divided into
six divisions for men, and five
divisions for women. Divi
sions are based on age.
Trophies will be awarded
to the first place man and
woman in each race. First
place runners in each age
group also will be awarded
trophies. Medallions will be
awarded to the second and
third place runners in each
division.
Contestants may register
for the races today through
March 2, from 10 a.m. until 2
p.m. in the main hall of the
Memorial Student Center.
The entry fee is $6. Contes
tants may register the day of
the races from 7 a.m. until
8.T5 a.m. in front of the col
iseum, but the entry fee in
creases to $8.
“Every contestant receives
a T-shirt with our logo on the
front and a list of sponsors on
the back,” Hartman said. “We
hope to get publicity from all
the people wearing the shirts.
The entry fee is mainly to
cover the cost of printing the
T-shirts.”
Several area merchants
have contributed prizes for a
drawing to be held after the
races. Participation in the
drawings will not be limited
to contestants of the races.
Hartman said there is no reg
istration fee for the drawings.
“This is not a money-mak
ing project,” Hartman said.

LONDON — Alleged nude
pictures of Prince Andrew’s
new girlfriend Katie Rabett ap
peared on the front page of a
British newspaper Sunday,
drawing heated denials from
the woman and her friends that
the shots were real.
“I can categorically say that
those two nude photos are
fakes,” the Daily Express quoted
the blond, blue-eyed model as
saying. “I have never posed in
the nude, either professionally
or for friends. Possibly some
friends have taken topless pho
tos of me on holiday.”
But the News of the World
newspaper, insisting “Prince
Andrew’s latest girlfriend, Katie
Rabett, is no shrinking violet,”
said the two nude pictures it
printed of the 23-year-old fash
ion model were authentic.
“This is Prince Andrew’s
lovely model girlfriend ... as
you’ve never seen her before,”
it said of the large front-page
and third-page pictures.
The paper said the two black-
and-white shots were from a set
of 94 color poses taken by a pro
fessional photographer two
years ago.
Britain’s tabloid press intro
duced Rabett to the country last
week, splashing their front
pages with photographs of the
model they said the prince,
third in line to the British
throne, was “deeply infatuted”
with.
Rabett was said to be the 24-
year-old prince’s first steady
girlfriend since his breakup
with American soft-porn film
actress Koo Stark several
months ago.
The Sunday People quoted
Rabett’s ex-boyfriend as saying
that the model always refused
to pose in the nude.
“She has a fabulous body and
she’s rightly proud of it,” the
paper quoted dancer and male
model Alan Curry as saying.
“She had plenty of offers to
pose nude and also to take part
in films when she would have
been required to reveal all but
she always refused,” he said.
But the paper also quoted
Curry as saying that he and Ka
tie lived together in London for
2 V* years — something royal
family watchers said the palace
would certainly disapprove of.
“I still love Katie and if An
drew breaks off their friendship
I will try very hard to win her
back,” Curry, 32, was quoted as
saying.
Katie’s father was quoted by
the Sunday People as saying “he
was disgusted that nude pic
tures of his daughter had been
sold for publication.
“The amount of money in
volved could support a geriatric
or feed a family for years,” the
paper quoted Dr. Robert Rabett
as saying.
Despite the flurry of reports,
The Daily Mail doubted Katie
and Andrew were a serious cou
ple.
