Business executive says
retailing is challenging
By MARY ANN HARVEY
Reporter
Though retailing is not a soft job,
benefits can be gained if you enjoy
.what you’re doing, Donald G. Soder-
cjuist, executive vice president of ad
ministration and distribution for
Wal-Mart Stores Inc., said Monday.
Soderquist’s lecture opened the
Retailing Career Fair Symposium
sponsored by the Center for Retail
ing Studies.
Soderquist said it is important for
students to get involved in some
thing they like, something they’re in
terested in.
‘A lot of people go into retailing
for invalid reasons,” Soderquist said.
“If you’re planning on going into re
tailing, vou must ask yourself why
you’ve chosen that field.”
He said one person out of every
eight is employed in the field of re
tailing.
Many factors are involved which
lead students to a field in retailing,
Soderquist said. Students must ex
amine their abilities, skills and inter
ests to see if they match a retailer’s
requirements, he said.
Values also are important in mak
ing a judgement about a career field,
Soderquist said. Different values and
standards will influence the area a
person gets involved in, he said.
Another area which Soderquist
recommends examining is one’s idea
of success. Many people are caught
up in the idea of success meaning
promotions and big dollars, he said.
“Don’t use the world’s guide of
success as you’re guide,” Soderquist
said. “Ask yourself what success
means to you.”
Soderquist discussed the pros and
cons of retailing.
“Merchandising is fun,” he said.
“It is an area where you can express
yourself and use your imagination to
do things that have not been done
before. There is also opportunity to
make errors in the decision-making
process. It’s great be in a field where
you can make errors and it doesn’t
blow you out.
“Retailing is a great challenge
You’re always dealing with change
and goals are set high because youie |
constantly trying to be better ,u
yesterday.”
The negative points, however, b
elude long hours, hard workandi
lot of paperwork, Soderquist said.
“If these things are really con
cerns to you ana bother you, you
need to re-examine your decisions
go into retailing,” he said.
Retailing is a people-oriented
business and, Soderquist said, i
you’re a solo player you’re not going
to be successful.
“Now’s a good time to get into re
tailing,” he said, “and in recem
years, women are having a greaiti
and greater opportunity in tin
field.”
Texas /\&M is becoming oneol
the outstanding schools in the natioi
as far as preparing students for tlii
field of retailing, Soderquist said.
"You’re very fortunate at Tffl
A&M to be involved in the program
developed here,” he said.
Senate votes to extend prescription law
Associated Press
AUSTIN — The Senate voted
Monday to re-enact a war-on-drugs
bill that would a extend a 1981 law
due to expire early next year.
Sen. Ray Farabee, D-Wichita Falls,
said a 1981 law to stem forgeries of
prescriptions for drugs such as
Quaaludes and amphetamines had
been “a very effective deterrent."
The law requires the use of special
triplicate prescription blanks issued
by the Department of Public Safety.
One copy is kept by the doctor, one
by the pharmacy and the other goes
to the DPS.
In the first year of the program
according to written backgroumi
material, pharmacies showed a l!
percent decrease in prescriptions foi
drugs "with a valid medical exos
but u high potent in} for abuse-ad&
tion.” Prescriptions fell an addition^
111 percent the second year
