Local merchants
benefiting from
repeal of blue law
In Advance
By Mary Ann Harvey
Staff Writer
More than six months after the re
peal of the Texas blue law. College
Station merchants are showing a
slight increase in business due to
Sunday openings.
The Texas blue law, which re
stricted Sunday sales of 42 items, was
lifted Sept. 1 with mixed reaction.
Today, however, local business
men say the repeal of the blue law
has helped business.
Bill Earnheart, assistant manager
of Foley’s, says there is a definite
positive effect by being open Sun
days.
“Since Christmas, we’ve been
doing about 10 percent of our busi
ness on Sunday, which makes it our
third largest day of the week behind
Friday and Saturday,” he says.
Jim Loveless, manager of Sears,
says 10 percent of his business also is
done on Sunday, although he con
siders this only a Might increase in
sales.
Craig Hall, managei of Beall’s,
says sales were good during the firs!
couple of months because Sunday
shopping was a novelty lo consum
ers.
“Then the holiday season came
and people really enjoyed having the
extra days to Christmas shop,” Hall
says.
Roy Phillips, manager of Dillards,
says opening on Sunday has taken
away from Monday and Saturday
sales. He says he thinks there’s not
much more business, just an additio
nal day to work with.
“I don’t think it’s hurt us,” Phillips
says. “We’ve increased our expenses
but the hours we’ve been open have
been productive.”
Seven to 9 percent of the week’s
business is done Sundays, he says.
Susan Daly, leasing public rela
tions director of Culpepper Prop
erties, says business has had a slight
increase in business because of the
Sunday opening. Daly says tenants
of Manor East Mall and Culpepper
Plaza voted on whether or not they
wanted to open Sundays.
“Ii was decided by a merchant’s
vote,” Daly says. ‘The popular vote
among those merchants was to stay
open.”
Daly says the repeal has not been
successful for some stores, though,
and those that have had problems
have decided to close again on Sun
days.
Scott Dorris, manager of Al’s For
mat Wear in Culpepper Plaza, says
MSC Council will discuss

By Jeanne Isenberg

The Memorial Student Center
on Monday will discuss the acqui
sition of two endowments to

ident Denis Davis says.
TheJ.W. Runyeon Collection,
consisting primarily of Southwes
tern Impressionist paintings,
eventually will be housed in the
MSC, Davis says. MSC Director
Jim Reynolds and the council will
discuss where the collection will
be displayed and the amount of
funds that may be needed to pro
vide a display room for the paint-
ings.
Reynolds also will discuss the
Jordan Institute of International
Awareness, an endowment de
signed to promote awareness o(
international cultures and over
seas travel.
Robert Bisor, the MSC exec
utive vice president of marketing
and personnel, will talk aboutthe
remaining leadership positionsin
the MSC and the process of appli
cation, Davis says.
At the council’s next meeting

U
the store only opened one Sunday
with bad results.
“It is company policy to close on'
Sunday but we opened for the bene
fit of the whole plaza,” Dorris says.
“Not a soul came in.”
Dorris says Culpepper Properties
has asked him to reopen several
times, but says he has no plans to re
open.
“The owners feel very strongly
about staying closed on Sundays,”
Dorris says. “We try to promote a
family environment and the own
feels that Sunday is a family day.’
But other merchants besJ
clothing stores have benefittedfre
the repeal of the blue law.
Mark Allen, assistant managei
Casa Ole in Post Oak Mall, saysbt
ness definitely has increased.
“We rely on the traffic in theitl
as much as we do our reputaiiot
Allen says. “We’ve always beenop
on Sundays but now more peJ
have reasons to come out here.’’
