By ANN CERVENKA
Smfl Writer
An exotic evening, far removed
from any experiences at Texas

dancers from the East at “Bangla
desh Night.”
The Bangladesh Association, Me
morial Student Center International
Programs and the Arts Council of
Brazos Valley will present “Bangla
desh Night” in Rudder Auditorium
on Saturday at 7 p.m.
“The evening is meant to rep
resent some of the cultural talent
that we have, and at the same time
have a better understanding with the
local community,” Shafiq Khan-
doker, president of the Bangladesh
Association, said.
Bangladesh singers and dancers
will perform traditional and popular
pieces.
One of the pieces “The Spring”
dance group from New York will
perform is “Matrimony.”
This traditional dance depicts the
wedding of two people who pre
viously nave never met. This type of
traditional marriage still occurs in
villages, Khandoker said.
Another popular dance will be
performed by Lina and Luna from
Austin. “The Fisherman” dance is a
romantic encounter between a fish
erman and his wife, he said.
Other performers include the pop
group from Oklahoma, “Bengal Ti
ger,” which symbolizes the royal ti
ger in Bangladesh. Also performing
is the vocalist “Roksana Islam” of
Texas A&M, who has appeared on
numerous television programs from
her native Bangladesh to Malayasia.
Local residents will contribute by
playing several eastern instruments.
These include the sorod, a plucked:
instrument originating nearly 2,0(K
years ago; the tabla, a pair ot tuned
drums; the harmonium, a wind in
strument; and the bamboo flute. [
The Ambassador of Bangladesk
to the United States, A.Z.M. Obai-
dulla Khan will attend the festivities.
Khan will tour the campus and
meet with University Presidem
Frank Vandiver. He is also sched
uled to speak about China for MSC

fairs, Khandoker said.
“We would like to see many stu
dents and residents of the commu
nity attend and enjoy the show,'I
Khandoker said.

THE NEWS

from current spending instead of
26.
The new money would come pri
marily f rom new and expanded fees
proposed by Gov. Mark White, in
creased tuition at state colleges and
universities, rededication of one cent
of the state cigarette tax, and trim
ming the ihcrease planned for the
state’s contributions to the teacher
retirement fund.
Speaker Gib Lewis, an LBB mem
ber, said he thought the proposal
“had a great deal of merit but I’d like
to study it a little further.”
White, who in the past has
stopped short of adopting a general
college tuition increase, said he
“might support such a move pro
vided there were guarantees that
poor students would receive suffi
cient financial help.”
Rep. Wilhelmina Delco, D-Austin,
chairman of the House Higher Edu
cation Committee, said later she was
“delighted they are recognizing that
institutions of higher education can
not sustain a 26 percent cut. There’s
just no way. I’m delighted we got
other people’s attention.”
The LBB approved in December
a budget of $35.8 billion from all
funds that is now being considered
by Senate and House committees.
On Jan. 15, While presented his
no-new-taxes budget of $36.1 bil
lion, an increase of $320.8 million
over the LBB document.
Comptroller Bob Bullock’s most
recent revenue estimate was that the
Legislature needed to find an addi
tional $1.1 billion if it wanted to fi
nance state services at current levels.
Hobby said the LBB was actually a
“non-budget board” now since it
technically went out of existence
when it made its recommendations
in December to the Senate and
House.
“Now we are faced with the pros-
f »ect that future revenue estimates
rom the comptroller are more likely
to go down than up,” Hobby said. “It
would be a terrible mistake at this
time for the state to signal it was fail
ing its higher education system.”
Briefly the proposed revenue in
creases proposed for the Senate and
House would:
• Take one cent of the state dp
rette tax intended for devdopmem
of local parks and place into genen!
revenue for a gain of $36 million, i
• Increase the amount of high;
way fees used to support the Depan
ment of Public Safety, without a( |
feeling the Highway Fund, $6l u
million.
• Increase the amount of federal
funds used in paying Medicaid
claims at schools for the mentally re
tarded, $40 million.
• Reduce the planned increased
the state’s contnbutiion to teachen;
retirement funds from 8.5 to 8 per
cent, $86 million. The current state!
contribution is 7.1 percent.
• Increase resident tuition feesai
state colleges from $4 per semester
hour to $8 in 1986 and $12 in 1987
and double tuition for out-of-state
and foreign students, $120 million. |
• Increased revenue from man
agement audits of state lands, 521
million.
• Adoption of White’s proposal
for new and expanded fees charged
by state agencies and courts, $147
million.
Survey: principals oppose testing
Associated Press
AUSTIN — A majority of el
ementary school administrators sur
veyed recently favor the state’s new
school reform law, but they don’t
think as highly of competency tests
for teachers, sponsors of the poll
said Wednesday.
“They (teachers) are taking it
rather personally,” said Brad Dug
gan, executive director of the Texas
Elementary Principals and Supervi
sors Association.
“They think they have made a
commitment to the children and to
the community, and they have a
level of professionalism which is of a
very high standard,” he said. “To ask
them to come in and assume they are
guilty before it’s been proven, after
they’ve been education leaders in the
community, is personally rather in
sulting to them.”
The school reform law passed by a
special legislative session last sum
mer calls for competency testing of
all public school teachers. Several
teachers’ organizations are seeking
to repeal the measure.
At a news conference, the princi
pals’ group released its poll which
showed that only 21.1 percent of the
1,216 elementary school administra
tors surveyed believed that compe
tency tests can accurately measure
teacning skills.
The poll also found that just 21
percent thought a competency test
would demonstrate that Texas
schools provide a quality education.
