The Eternal Flame, the Class of 1983’s gift as a symbol of its burning spirit for Texas A&M, is out of com mission this summer for more than mechanical reasons. Mark Bradley, a Class of’83 build ing construction graduate, said he was very disappointed in its condi tion. “Theoretically it’s finished, but I thought it looked like a mess. I felt like I could do a good job fixing it up because I had the opportunity to work on it.” Bradley said he recieved approval to renovate the black granite pyr amid. Gerry Albanese, one of Bradley’s co-workers, said he and Bradley first noticed that the pyramid didn’t look exactly like the proposed idea. “Jim Vandenberg, a corps friend of mine, designed a sketch of the fi nal project, and this (the completed project) doesn't look quite the same,” Albanese said. “Then we noticed that the plaster was chipping, so we got in there and scraped away at it. It really looked bad.” The pyramid is a 12-point pond structure containing four fountains, symbolizing the 12th Man, but this is hard to delect since all but iwoofiij fountain’s no/.zels have popped and the sparkling white concretfi ish looks like plastic, Albanese aril Besides the structure’s unsipj general appearance, Bradley a also had major problems with it sign. “It wasn’t engineered ex right. I think the contractors, the class officers, were in a hun get the construction done. No*j will have to lie worked on mosiij the summer.’’ Inside the bronze bowl, resiingij top of the pyramid, maroon while tile has been layed and then side is planned to Ijc covered 1 concrete designs. Ags study 16th-century ship By HOLLY ROBINSON Reporter A 16th-century Spanish ship, which sank off the Turks and Caicos Islands in the Bahamas, is being ana lyzed by the Institute of Nautical Ar chaeology at Texas A&M University. The 55 to 65-foot ship was either a Spanish exploration or cargo ship, and may have sunk less than 30 years after Columbus sailed to the New World, project director Don Keith said. Keith said pieces of ceramics and the design of artillery pieces as well as the location of the ship confirm that the ship is Spanish. The ship might have been a heav ily armed merchantman, which was salvaged almost immediately after sinking, or a salvage ship carrying guns for scrap iron, fie said. Since most of the artillery was stored, how ever, Keith said the ship probably was a cargo ship. The ship carried two mid-sized S8?r : % : f|M A worker cleans artifacts from the 16th-century Spanish ship which is being analyzed by the Institute of Nautical Archaeo logy at Texas A&M University.
