Wednesday, October 3, 1984^016 Battalion/Page 3 Four A&M students released on bond after surrendering By DAINAH BULLARD Staff Writer Ipour Texas A&M students who fere indicted Friday in connection with the death of a cadet were re leased on personal recognizance bonds Monday after surrendering to authorities. ■The students were indicted after a ■o-day grand jury investigation into the Aug. 30 death of Bruce Ward Goodrich, 20, a transfer stu dent from Webster, N.Y. Police re- ^ports state that Goodrich collapsed and later died after participating in a |i:30a.m. exercise session conducted by three junior members of his out fit, Company F-l. ■junior cadets Anthony D’Alessan- dro and Jason Miles, both of Hous- j ton, and Louis Fancher III of San Antonio were indicted by a Brazos Bounty Grand Jury on misdemea nor charges of criminally negligent homicide and hazing. ■ Senior Gabriel Cuadra, of Hous- : ton, was indicted on misdemeanor Biarges of tampering with evidence and hazing. Cuadra, former person nel officer of Company F-l, report- I'edly gave the three junior cadets permission to conduct the early- morning run. Cuadra resigned from ! the Corps of Cadets after Goodrich’s ■ath. ■ Cuadra was booked into the Bra- —7 5 4b Anorexia nervosa, bulimjo common /n todays society where 'thin-is-in' zos County Jail Monday morning and released a short time later. D’A- lessandro, Miles and Fancher were booked into the jail Monday af ternoon, and also were released. Deputy Rick Hernandez said Tuesday that the students were re leased on two $125 personal recog nizance bonds each. “The judge is letting them out on their own personal recognizance ... on their word that they’ll appear in court,” Hernandez said. A court date has not yet been de termined for the Goodrich case. However, District Attorney Bill Turner said last week that a trial for misdemeanor charges against the students probably would be sched uled for sometime in the next three months. County Attorney Jeff Brown will prosecute the students on the misde meanor charges, Turner said. Meanwhile, University discipli nary hearings continue this week for the junior and senior cadets who were members of Company F-l at the time of Goodrich’s death. Bill Kibler, assistant director of student affairs, said he hopes to conclude the hearings this week. Kibler said the indictments of the four students does not affect the stu dents’ standing with the University. Old-fashioned baker uses family recipes By KARLA K. MARTIN Staff Writer Every morning at 5 a.m. she’s there, huddling over her mounds of fresh dough, squeezing, rolling and patting them into dozens of little round circles. By 7 a.m. her morning crowd arrives, lured by the sweet smell of cinnamon and warm butter, and Lydia Faust greets them by name. Lydia began working at the Snook bakery when it opened in 1968, and in 1983 she bought it for herself. “Sometimes I think I need my head examined,” she said, “but I must enjoy it. It’s a lot of hours, but I just hate bookkeeping.” Lydia was born in Rogers in 1933. Later, Lydia moved to Snook and married. She has two sons, a daughter and a grandson. “All my recipes have been in our family for years,” Lydia said, “we just change the recipe with the times.” With her mother’s guidance (and her mother’s recipes), Ly dia’s baking became famous, and as the home of her tasty baked goods, the city of Snook earned a reputation. “It’s good for the community,” she said as she darted from the dough to the ringing phone and then to the waiting customers. “And to build the community up, you have to work with young and old people together. I like young C eople best, because I can’t talk ack to the old ones.” Lydia said that spending time with the public is something ev erybody should do to learn how to treat people. “Always tell your labor they did a good job, even if you don’t mean it,” she said, wiping flour dust off her cheek and pushing up her glasses. “Let them know you appreciate their work.” Lydia is popular with her six part-time employees, and with the rest of the population of Snook as well. She teaches a Sun day school class and a confirma tion class at the Snook Brethren Church, and is president of the Extension Homemakers Club. Though she loves people, Ly dia prefers baking in the back room to waiting on customers. The Snook bakery, which is about a 20-minute drive from the Texas A&M campus, is open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. It’s best known for its ko- laches, cinnamon rolls, sausage rolls and of course its doughnuts. “Our prices haven’t changed in the last seven or eight years,” Ly dia said. She stopped for a mo ment as she reached for a cake pan from her flour-dusted shelves. “I would sell this place if I could get double price for it. One day, I’ll just write down my recipes and sell them.” Photo by KARLA K.

Al- augh they are primarily female Iting disorders, they also affect [ales, scientists say. 'Major reasons for binging, purg ing and compulsive starvation jiong men and women appear sim- jir except for one thing: more male Ttims may be homosexual and un- pfortable about it, according to a team at Massachusetts General Hos pital. ["It’s not unlike the issues for fe- ples. What was novel about this particular thing was the conflicted homosexuality, which was not noted among females,” said Dr. David Herzog, head of the hospital’s eating disorders unit and a principal au thor of the study. Anorexia, or more precisely, ano rexia nervosa, affects an estimated one in 100 to one in 250 teenage girls, but grown women also are vic tims. Anorectics severely restrict their food intake, many times be coming skeleton-like and risking death. Some scientists estimate one to three million Americans have buli mia, uncontrolled eating followed by use of laxatives or self-induced vom- iting. Many victims of both syndromes have intense fear of fatness and an unjustified feeling they are over weight. Since prolonged starvation inhibits sexuality and holds off men struation in females, psychiatrists who have studied young female vic tims say the girls may actually fear sexual maturity and adulthood. Males make up an estimated 4 to 14 percent of anorectics, the Massa chusetts team wrote in the American Journal of Psychiatry, and have been infrequently studied. Bulimia among men and boys has been explored even less. In two studies of university students, males made up 0.4 to 5 percent of bulimics. Herzog and colleagues studied 13 anorectic males age 16 to 32 and 14 bulimic males age 13 to 41, compar ing them to the first 142 females evaluated after the unit opened in 1981. “There were significant differ ences between the overall male and female samples in sexual behavior,” the team wrote. “Males with eating disorders were significantly more likely to have had no sexual relations and to report being homosexual, and were significantly less likely to be currently involved in an active heterosexual relationship. Not only were the males in our sample ex tremely limited in their sexual activ ity both in terms of past and current sexual activity, they were signifi cantly more limited than were their female counterparts.” Twenty-six percent of the males were homosexual, compared with 4 percent of the females. Of the seven homosexual men, five acknowl edged they felt conflicted about their sexuality. Herzog said homosexuals might be more at risk than other males be cause of the pressure to be thin and attractive. The disorders may go undetected among males because they suffer fewer secondary symptoms, the team wrote. Women, when starved, may stop menstruating. The researchers said males may also be reluctant to seek help for “these stereotypically female disor ders” and may also feel ashamed or anxious about aknowledging sexual ity-related problems to a profes sional. ’d A&M st gh the hall Tackled assli irned fromtk ' a child tali ng black kf ed the railinf it this frails she had a dii! ant to becos »vanttosceff sleep. talion.
