The idea for The Sweet Shop originated from the first on-campus bookstore. “The bookstore was originally lo cated where Heaton Hall is now,” said Charles Gentry, assistant man ager for the MSC bookstore, gift shop and candy store. “Back then it was called The Old Exchange Store, and the only candy it carried was wrapped candy.” The store also sold convenience items like aspirin, cigarettes and shoe polish. “But all these items were sold on a counter-type sales basis,” Gentry said. “There was not a separate shop then.” In 1973, the bookstore moved to the MSC basement. A gift shop was placed upstairs and a new, separate candy store was opened at the south east entrance of the MSC. “A check cashing service was orig inally located at the MSC entrance,” Gentry said, “and when it closed we put the candy store in.” The gift shop was originally lo cated where The Sweet Shop is now. The candy store has been in oper ation since its move to the MSC, but, Gentry said, it has undergone three major renovations in that time. It was remodeled twice when it was lo cated at the entrance of the MSC and then was enlarged when it moved to its present location, he added. “The department managers de cided as a group to start a separate candy store,” Gentry said. “We moved the gift shop entrance down to its present location and closed up the original candy store,” Gentry said. “In the beginning, we felt that by isolating candy, gum and cigarette sales, plus other convenience items that are usually purchased singly, we could reduce tne cash register lines. “And this provided a certain amount of convenience for our cus tomers, too.’^ He added that the original gift shop entrance was replaced with The Sweet Shop and some offices. The candy store has operated un der The Sweet Shop name since its move to its present location. “We had more room and more counter space, so we decided to give the candy store a name,” Gentry said. He said the main difference from the original store was that the new one carried bulk candy, not just wrapped candy. Bulk candy includes candies like Pine Bark and peanut clusters. . The revenues from I he Sweet Shop, along with the profits from the oookstore, go to fund the stu dent programs on campus, Gentry said. He said The Sweet Shop has two full-time employees and offers em ployment for five students during the regular school semesters. The Sweet Shop is open from 7:45 a.m. to 10 jp.m., Monday through Friday, and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday. It is closed on Sunday. For special events, like football games, The Sweet Shop keeps the same hours as the bookstore. For ex ample, on game days, the store opens at 9 a.m. and closes sometime after kickoff. But these Aggie specials are not the most popular item at The Sweet Shop. “Believe it or not,” Gentry said, “the most popular item at Texas A&M is bubble gum.” ‘Star Wars,’ disarmament linked FOR SALE WINTER BREAK skiing at Steamboat Springs and Vail from $75., or sunning at South Padre Island and Daytona Beach from $99.!

Neither side conceded su periority. The interview, the first in 24 years between an American president and Soviet journalists, was published Monday in a full-page display in the Soviet government newspaper Izves- tia. Speakes said he did not know if all of Reagan’s comments were pub lished. Izvestia countered Reagan’s views by publishing another full page giv ing the Soviet interpretation of American foreign policy. The White House released an official transcript of the interview. Zeroing in on Star Wars, a Soviet journalist said deployment of a space shield would lead Moscow to suspect • that the United States was trying to f >ut itself “in a position to make a irst strike” against the Soviet Union. Reagan said the Soviets have been working for years on systems to de fend against missiles and that the Kremlin’s interest “would indicate that maybe we should be a little sus picious that they want it for them selves.” The president said that if research determines that a space shield against missiles is feasible, “our move would be to say to all the world, ‘Here, it is available.’ ” He said, as he has in the past, that the offer would include sharing it with the Soviet Union. “And if the Soviet Union and the United States both say we will elimi nate our offensive weapons, we will put in this defensive thing in case some place in the world a madman some day tries to create these weap ons again, nuclear weapons, be cause, remember, we all know how to make them now,” Reagan said. Returning to Star Wars later in the interview, the president said, “We would not deploy, ... it is not my purpose for deployment, until we sit down with the other nations.” Teaching incentive proposal (continued from page 1) 1990s between 900,000 and 1.6 mil lion new teachers will be needed. Nancy Kochuk, NEA communica tions specialist, says: “One of the real problems that has been going on in education is that we’re having trou ble attracting enough people into the teaching profession because of low salaries, poor working condi tions and lack of prestige. Its an eco nomic incentive, so that we can en courage some more creative and bright people to go into a profession that traditionally has not paid as well. “If you can give people an incen tive to go into teaching oy essentially letting them start, not way in debt, but financially even after four years of college, they’ll be more willing to OFFICIAL NOTICE go into teaching financially. They won’t feel as compelled to go into a higher-paying profession simply be cause they’re feeling financially strapped.” Since the student’s responsibilities begin immediately upon acceptance in the program, Newman says, “it would not simply be a reaction on the part of the student to a financial need with an expectation that the obligation for performing the duties would somehow solve itself in the distant future.” Another advantage is that because the students would not be asked to make a permanent career commit ment, they would be willing to go to an urban school that is less attractive to teachers looking for a permanent job, he says.
