Texas A&M received an award
from the National Science Foun
dation during a ground breaking
ceremony for the Ocean Drilling
Program Building Monday.
Dr. K. June Lindstedt-Siva, di
rector of the National Science
Board, presented President
Frank E. Vandiver with the foun
dation’s Meritorious Public Serv
ice award. She said the founda
tion gave A&M the award for its
contributions to the Ocean Dril
ling Program (ODP).
Lindstedt-Siva said A&M was
responsible for the rebuilding of
the drilling ship Toides Resolu
tion and the development of the
Ocean Drilling Program Build
ing, scheduled to be completed in
September 1986.
The building will be located on
A&M’s west campus, just south of
the poultry center. It will house
the administrative and staff of
fices of the OPD and the core
sample collection of the National
Science Foundation.
The building will have 10,000
square feet of refrigerated stor
age for the core sample collec
tion, said H.R. “Bum” Bright,
A&M Board of Regents chair
man. Bright said the building can
be expanded to 20,000 square
feet should the need arise.
This ground breaking is the
first of many for A&M’s new high
technology research park, he
said.
Dr. Mark L. Money, vice chan
cellor of research park and cor
porate relations for the A&M sys
tem, said, in a press release, that
research park operations mainly
will be research and technology
oriented.
The next project developed for
the research park may come from
the private sector, Money said.

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

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.

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.
