Sailing club merges
with windsurfing club
By DALLAS MORRIS
Reporter
The Texas A&M Sailing Club and
the Windsurfing Club merged early
this July and Ed Cook, former secre
tary-treasurer of the Windsurfing
Club, said he thinks both clubs will
benefit.
The clubs got together to better
accomodate the members of both
clubs, Cook said. Before the merge,
the Windsurfing Club had no wind
surfing boards of its own while the
Sailing Club had two boards.
The Windsurfing Club was
founded in the fall of 1981. Being
merged with a larger club, Cook
said, will enable better organization
for those people who want to wind
surf.
When asked if there were any pos
sible conflicts as a result of the merg
ing of the two clubs, Cook said that
some members of the former Wind
surfing Club might feel that too
much attention will be placed on the
sailing group. “Hopefully though,
that will not happen. Cook said.
Jackie Schuster, treasurer of the
Sailing Club, estimates that 75 to 125
people will join the new club, and
sees no conflicts in the merging of
the two dubs, only advantages.
First, the Sailing Club willincreax
in membership, and second,thecliili
will have more than two boardsto
teach members how to ride, shesaii
For $25, you can join the Safe
Club which gives you theuseofal
equipment, instructions in bothsail-
ing and windsurfing, refreshmenis,
and instructions for different watti
safety techniques.
Outings are held every other wed
at Yegua Park in Lake Somerville,
and there are about seven outings a
semester, (look said.
If you want to w i nd surf only, joa
pay a $15 fee, which lets you usej
windsurfer. If you own your own
windsurfer or sailboat, youcanjoit
and campout with the other mem.
hers for a $ 10 social fee.
Cook said that members of tit
Sailing Club will elect oificersearis
this fall.
The Sailing Club will have Wind,
sut lers and a catamaran on displat
on Wednesday August 29, in from
of Rudder Fountain. At 1 pm
Wednesday in 137 MSC, a videotape
will Ik* played to promote interestiii
windsurfing and the SailingClub.
Operator handles
emergency calls
for on, off campus
By JOHN MAKELY
Reporter
For on-campus emergencies,
from serious medical problems to a
broken pipe dumping water into
your dormitory room, dial 991 1 for
the 24-hour emergency operator lo
cated on campus.
The operator at the 991 1 number
can contact the Texas A&M Emer
gency Medical Services, the Univer
sity Police, the College Station Fire
Department or the University Physi
cal plant.
Off-campus students can dial 845-
1111 for the same emergency opera
tor.
Starting in October the emer
gency dispatcher will use a proce
dure developed by the Salt Lake City
Fire Department to aid medical
emergency patients before the am
bulance arrives, said Steven Ellerhe,
a captain with the Texas A&M
Emergency Medical Services and a
senior biology major.
The dispatcher will ask callers for
location, basic nature of tht injun
and other questions necessary it
send the ambulance.
Using a flowchart and fliponl
system the dispatcher will ask lit
caller more detailed questions afw
the ambuh nee is dispatched, ami
can give the caller lirst-aki dim
tions, Ellerhe said. This enablesilt
dispatcher to accurately telltheik
ambulance crew what to expect ami
to keep them informed while(t
route to ihe patient.
“The system is not designed it
screen calls,” Ellerhe stressed, “ft
send a unit on every call. We new
refuse transport.”
The Texas A&M Emerges
Medical Services handle the Inner-
sity campus and can respondtoam
one in the Burleson and Bra®
Counties outside of the CollegeSia
tion city limits. They are notaBowtil
by the College Station Fire Depati-
ment to respond to calls in thedty.
Homemade signs banned
during Reagan’s speech
United Press International
CINCINNATI — A White House
advance man Tuesday denied that
he ordered that all homemade signs
be kept off Fountain Square during
President Reagan’s appearance
there last Monday.
Bill Brennan told the Cincinnati
Post he recommended to local Re
publicans that they invoke such a
ban because it “would certainly ex
pedite people getting into the
square.” But he said it was not an or
der and not normal White House
procedure.
Anthony Reissig, a local COP offi
cial who acted as liaison with the
White House on Reagan’s appear
ance last Monday, said Brennan and
another advance man specifically or
dered the ban.
Dozens of people who showed up
with pro- and anti-Reagan posters
and signs at last week’s presidential
appearance had them confiscated
prior to their being allowed onto the
square. However, once the specators
passed through metal detectors,
many were handed pro-Reagan
signs by GOP loyalists, thus effecti
vely keeping most anti-Reagan signs
off the square and out of camera
range.
White House spokeswoman Kim
Hoggard told the Cincinnati Postil
is not White House policy to bu
signs at presidential appearance.
“It is standard Secret Servicepoli
icy to reject signs that presentasea
rity hazard. It is not While Hoiin
policy to reject any signs, period,
she said.
But Reissig said Brennan and Jin
Kuhn, assistant to the directoroflk
White House advance office,speoi
ically ordered him to recruit volt
leers to collect all signs at thetf
trances to the square.
“They said, ‘We’re going to need
some people,’ and that there wilt*
no signs permitted on the squats
and they also said it was forih
safety of the president and for®
venience due to that we only hadw
openings to the square and them#
bet of people that would be comisf
through," he told the Post.
About a half-dozen people whs
signs were seized have threatened!
bring suit over the incident, chaif
ing that their right to free speed
was abridged.

County co-chairman of the Reagi
