igOlympic gold medal winner Mary
Lou Retton and her coach Bela Ka-
rolyi have rescheduled a gymnastic
clinic and exhibition for Dec. 16, 1
p.m. to 4 p.m. at Aerofit in Bryan.
■Aerofit Manager Dawn Suehs
said, Retton cancelled the previous
exhibition set for Nov. 25 because of
a multi-million dollar contract with

fit’s.
i “Everything will be the same as
I previously planned,” Suehs said.
J|The gymnastic clinic will be fol-
loived by a general interest presenta-
| don by Karolyi and Retton. Suehs
| said Retton will speak on her gym-
ilhastic experience. Karolyi will speak

| ing of the Rumanian National team
and the training of the U.S. Olympic
team.

tics team for the Los Angeles Olym-
I pics last summer and was coach of
the Rumanian team that won at the
Montreal Olympics in 1976 and
gain in Moscow in 1980. One of his
I best known gymnastic stars was gold
I medalist Nadia Comaneci.

Texas A&M professor Dr. Alvin
A. Price, director of Biomedical Sci
ences at the College of Veterinary
Medicine, recently has been in
ducted into the Personalities of the
South Hall of Fame in recognition of
his contributions to his field.
“I’m surprised and pleased to be
in the Hall of Fame, I am the only
one from A&M that I know of in it,”
Price said Thursday.
The Hall of Fame, sponsored by
the American Biographical Institute
Inc., is limited to those individuals
whose biographies have appeared in
the biographical reference series,
Personalities of the South.
“I think that they look in other
listings of Who’s Who all over the
world and pick out some biographies
to investigate,” Price said. He is
listed in several different Who’s
Who including Who’s Who in Amer
ican Education and Who’s Who in
the World.
A 1940 graduate of Texas A&M,
Price served as the dean of veteri
nary medicine for 16 years and has
served as the director of biomedical
science since 1973.
Price, a professor of Veterinary
Physiology and Pharmacology, has
earned many awards including
many service and teaching honors.
In 1979 he received the Texas Vet
erinary Medical Association Service
Award and the Distinguished
Alumni Award from Gamma Sigma
Delta.
He served as a veterinary consul
tant to East Pakistan under the U.S.
Agency for International Devel
opment. Price was appointed to the
National Health Resources Advisory
Committee by President Lyndon B.
Johnson and has continued to serve
on the committee under other four
presidents.
“My major contributions to veteri
nary medicine came during the time
when I was dean of veterinary medi
cine,” Price said.
While Price was dean, enrollment
doubled, the curriculum was
changed, enrollment in graduate
studies increased by 600 percent and
expanded the college of veterinary
medicine research.
Also Price helped develop the
