Catamarans are made in 14-, 16-, and 18-foot lengths. “The boats are exactly the same so the crew with the best ability usually wins the race.” he said.

The action came at the request of council members who asked the State Department of Highways to study traffic load and speed limits on Texas Avenue and then report the findings to the council. The study examined 38 non-peak traffic peri ods and ranked traffic speeds from the lowest to the highest. A cut-off point was established at 85 percent of the highest speed. The results were 5 mph below current speed limits. Traffic Engi neer John Black said the passage of the ordinance means the reduced speed limits would go into effect as soon as the highway department posts the new signs. Black, expects that to be done within the next month. No opposition to the change was raised at the council meeting — a fact which surprised Student Gov ernment liaison and council candi date Mike Hachtman. Although the liaison position is a non-voting one, Hachtman said he had planned to raise questions about the reduction until he talked to students. Those he spoke with to, he said, supported the speed changes. The new limits are: 40 mph from College Station’s north city limits passed Holleman Drive; 45 fra . • Holleman Drive to just south off! 2818; 50 mph from that section! the intersection of Texas 6 andti East Bypass; 55 mph from thatpo! south.

Dr. Micheal Orenduff, the Dean of Humanities and Social Science at Weber Sate University in Ogden, Utah, discussed computer logic and human reason to a handful of peo ple during a program sponsored by the philosophy department. “I believe we already have com puter programs that possess intelli gent behavior,” said Orenduff, a professor who specializes in logic. However, some experts do not agree with Orenduff, he said. To defend his view on artificial in telligence, Orenduff read a con densed version of a paper he wrote which looks at other beliefs versus his own. Orenduff highlighted the con cepts of Hubert Dreyfuss, who di vides intelligence into two catagories — low-level intelligence which is rule-following and high-level intelli gence which is non-rule following. “One problem with Dreyfuss’ con cept is that the behavior Dreyfuss claims is intelligence is rule-follow ing,” he said. Orenduff presented two paintings that are difficult for a novice to tell who the artists are and also difficult for experts to recognize.

Sanctuary director gets lighter sentence Associated Press BROWNSVILLE — A federal judge, acknowledging he agreed with the sanctuary movement, Thursday reduced the sentence of a church worker from one year in prison to five months in a halfway house for illegally aiding two Salva dorans in entering the country. U.S. District Judge Filemon Vela Wednesday praised sanctuary worker Jack Elder and said although he agreed with his work he was going to preserve “the integrity of the law.” Elder, the director of Casa Oscar Romero in San Benito, was sen tenced to one year in prison Wednesday after he refused two years’ probation because it required him to leave the shelter for Central Americans and to stop his bolstering of the sanctuary movement. Elder was convicted last month on a six-count indictment alleging two counts each of conspiring to help two Salvadorans enter the county, of helping them enter the country and of taking them from the shelter to a McAllen bus station. Vela reduced the sentence to 150 days on each of the six counts, to be served concurrently. Defense attorney Steve Cooper said the sentence will be appealed. He also praised Elder and Stacey Lynn Merkt, 30, a former volunteer at the shelter who. Wednesday was sentenced to six months in prison. She was convicted at the same trial with Elder on a charge of conspiring to help two Salvadorans enter the country illegally. Elder said the sanctuary movement is gaining attention. “People here in the border and from throughout the country are ex pressing their concern by engaging in refugee assistance activities,” he said. “I feel proud to be part of this movement.” Sanctuary movement leaders con tend the Salvadorans are entitled to political asylym because they are fleeing civil war. U.S. prosecutors ar gue that the Salvadorans are enter ing this country strictly for economic reasons. Authorities also say they are not selectively prosecuting sanctuary movement workers for helping the Salvadorans. Although Elder received a re duced sentence, his attorney said it was not a victory. “I wouldn’t call it a victory. No,” Cooper said. “I would call today en couraging.” White requests Texans' support of child abuse Copie Brc 201 College legislation Associated Press AUSTIN — Cov. Mark White says he wants Texans to make a special effort during April to sup port legislation that would pre vent child abuse and neglect. White also issued a proclama tion declaring April as Child Abuse Prevention Month in Texas. Texas child care workers confirmed almost 37,000 child abuse or neglect cases, the gover nor said. “We know that child abusers were often abused as children and that our prisons are filled with individuals who were victim ized as children before they turned their anger against so ciety,” he says. White says he supports pro posed increases in marriage li cense fees to raise money for a Children’s Trust Fund that would aid community-based child abuse prevention programs. And he also supports bills requiring crim inal background checks on those who operate or work at day care centers or at state schools for the deaf and blind. c
