Voters in Austin decide to keep airport location Associated Press AUSTIN — Voters decided against moving the city’s airport and approved creation of a new transit authority during a citywide election that attracted 29 percent of the reg istered voters. The decision on whether to move Austin’s Robert Mueller Municipal Airport was split throughout the evening Saturday but the final tally showed 40,139 votes against the air port move and 39,391 votes for mov- mgit. Pike Powers, chairman of the air- port task force which recommended moving the airport, had predicted the race would be extremely close. The creation of the Capital Met ropolitan Transportation Authority in Austin passed overwhelmingly with 46,059 votes opposed to 32,413 votes. Several incorporated cities outside of Austin voted against the authority but the city of Austin was the critical point in the proposal’s passage. The tables turned on whether or not to move the airport throughout the evening and early morning, sometimes being only 15 votes apart. “The people finally decided,” said John Cutwright, a member of the task force who led the opposition for the airport move. “I hope the land speculators and city council will lis ten to the people.” He said a parking gargage and noise abatement procedures are first on the agenda to improve the pre sent airport. Voluntary noise abate ment procedures are in effect now, but Cutwright hopes to institute ma- nadatory procedures. The airport task force had pro jected the new airport to cost S353 million. The present airport was esti mated to sell for $200 million and another $60 million was to be sought in federal aid, the task force said. The additional $93 million needed was to he financed through revenue bonds, to be repaid out of airport revenues. Proponents of the airport move listed noise elimination, safety con cerns around the airport and air space conflicts with nearby Bergs trom Air Force Base as reasons for the move. The new airport was to be located at an unspecified location outside the city. The plan was to purchase 5,300 acres of land and have land use controls of an additional 10,000 acres surrounding the new location. The other major issue of the 20 propositions decided on Saturday concerned the development of the Capital Metropolitan Transporta tion Authority which will serve Tra vis and southern Williamson County. The new authority will take over the present city bus system and plan for possible light rail trolley lines or other high-capacity transit service to meet Austin’s growing needs. Alan C. Wulkan, executive direc tor of Capital Metro, said, “We had sensed all along that we were being favorably received because traffic is clearly the number one issue in Aus tin.” Wulkan said the first steps for the new authority are arranging for an additional 1 cent sales tax to fund the project and negotiate a transfer of authority from the current bus system. He said Capital Metro, which will have more than a $40 million bud get, will begin its new service in July. Opponents of the proposal said the number of commuters which use public transportation are too few for such a large expenditure. the Fifth Annual Cambridge/ucla PROGRAM E ARN COLLEGE CREDITS WHILE EXPERIENCING THE CAMBRIDGE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT.

"Woa', you must have been to the Caribbean!’* Perfect Tan Comes To College Station* The middle of winter is not when most people think of getting a tan, but area residents will have to change their way of thinking with the arrival of Perfect Tan.

Just imagine yourself at that first spring party already showing off a glowing tan! Perfect Tan makes it easy. Tanning salons have become extremely popular in such Texas cities as Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio. Perfect Tan owners Charles and Ann Teague are sure indoor tanning will be just as popular here when people begin learning about its con venience and safety. “Perfect Tan uses exclusively 'St, technologically advanced equip ment available,” explains Charles Teague. They virtually eliminate the ultra-violet B (UV-B) rays of light that can burn the skin, while they enhance the UV-A light which gently tans. Therefore, Sol- aire beds are actually safer than sunshine, but tan you much faster. The result is a deep, lasting tan that actually softens normal skin and may help relieve some skin problems like acne. A thirty- minute session at Perfect Tan is equal to three to five hours in the sun, and there is no risk of burning because trained technicians re gulate your time in the tanning beds. The Teagues guarantee that anyone, no matter how fair-skin ned, can safely get a rich, natural tan from a sensibly planned series of visits. You are sure to enjoy every session at Perfect Tan. The salon is at tractively decorated in soft colors accented by warm brass. Each tanning room is completely private with a Solaire bed, a chair, and a storage area for your clothes and other belongings. Restrooms and a powder room are also available for your convenience. For working persons, conven ience is one of the best reasons for tanning at Perfect Tan Be cause tanning sessions are pri marily by appointment, Perfect Tan will fit their schedule to yours. You can make appoiftt- yg&ents before or after work or even during your lunch hour, because you never have to sweat or exert yourself. You can relax by listening to the built-in AM- FM stereo cassette system or just nap while the Solaire bed tans both sides of your body at the same time. The convenience of indoor tan ning appeals to all types of people. Whole families can protect them selves from sunburn by getting a tan before a tropical vacation or ski trip. Students and faculty alike enjoy preparing for Spring Break at the beach. Perfect Tan means never having to wait for the sun to shine to get the look of health and success.
