The building will be located on A&M’s west campus, just south of the poultry center.

"It’s stffiy,” iters, Americai in Tulsa, t Iniversity inTtis- leduled to go to rth Carolina fed :s of issuing ler investigation ment of Human he used phom is state certilica- By DAINAH BULLARD Staff Writer About $25,000 has been pledged to the Corps of Cadets for Saturday’s March to the Brazos, a fund-raising project that benefits the March of Dimes. Cadets have until Thursday to meet their goal of $40,000. The goal can he met if each cadet raises $23, says Greg Bowen, Corps adjuctant. Last year, the Corps raised about $33,000 for the March of Dimes. The first-place outfit was B-Battery, which raised $4,232, an average of about $85 for each cadet. Bowen stiys prizes for cadets who raise the most money include a [round trip for two to an out-of-town Evidence House passes bill to allow judges more discretion game with the Aggie football team and a color television. Cadets will march about 14 miles to the Brazos River and participate in outfit competitions suen as tug-of- war, relay races and stretcher races. A new event this year is the chicken eating contest, sponsored by Tinsley’s Chicken-and-Rolls. Three Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders will be present, and the Texas A&M Sky diving Club will present a skydiving demonstration. In addition to the March to the Brazos, the Corps and local sorori ties are sponsoring a “Spring Break” mixer Friday from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. at the Lakeview Club. Tickets are $2 in advance and $3 at the door. They will be sold all of the Center. The The first March to the Brazos, in 1908, was a way to remove the rowdy student body (then all-male and all military) from the Texas A&M cam pus on All Fool’s Day (April 1). The event was discontinued in 1915 when a cadet drowned in the Brazos River, and resumed in 1977 to raise money for the MArch of Dimes. Culpepper Plaza, College Station A Cottons £ Khaki ^ for Cool Comfort Associated Press AUSTIN — The Texas House gave final approval Monday to a measure that civil liberties groups say unfairly erodes defendant’s rights. Representatives also voted a bill to ban shotguns in liquor stores and send anniversary greetings to the United Nations. The controversial bill would give judges more discretion in allowing into evidence items taken as a result of improper searches. A 75-24 vote sent the bill to the Senate. El Paso Rep. Paul Moreno said he understood that public sentiment is against freeing defendants because of “technical” errors. But he said, “This country was based on rules. We have rules on everything. We are starting to gnaw at the rules of evi dence we have.” The United Nations resolution of fered by Fort Worth Rep. Mike Mil- Isap drew some of the sharpest op position. “This is not an endorsement of the actions of the United Nations,” said Millsap, who won 65-32 appro val of his resolution honoring the U.N.’s 40th anniversary. “It’s merely affirming our support for the principles embodied in the charter of the United Nations.” The House gave tentative voice vote approval to Waco Rep. Betty Denton’s measure making it illegal to carry shotguns and other weapons in places where alcoholic beverages are sold. For Women: Snap Jersey.
