MSC lecture
series to be
televised
ByJeanne Isenberg
Staff Writer
The 1986 MSC Wiley Lecture Se
ries, “U.S. Interventionism: Resolv
ing International Conflict,” will be
the first Memorial Student Center
program ever to be televised when it
airs around May 1, new Series Chair
man Ed Hinson said Tuesday at the
MSC Council meeting.
Hinson said KAMU-TV, Texas
A&M’s public television station,
taped the April 1 program and ob
tained a grant from the Southern
Education Communications Associa
tion to edit the program and pre
pare it for distribution.
Up to 102 Public Broadcasting
Service stations that are members of
SECA will have the option to televise
the program, Hinson said.
He said the two-hour program
with former presidents Jimmy Car
ter and Gerald Ford, historian Dr.
Stephen Ambrose and moderator
George Will has been edited into a
one-hour show.
In other action, the council voted
to rename MSC Career Devel
opment as the MBA/Law Committee
and to return the committee to its
original purpose — bringing former
students to A&M for MBA/Law Day
to encourage students to consider
business and law careers.
Tim Fitzgibbon, new executive
vice president for programs, ex
plained the 1986-87 MSC program
approval process and said the only
major change is that administrative
programs — retreats, workshops
and conferences — must go through
the process along with the commit
tee programs.
Warped
Girl was 'mother' to drowned siblings
HOUSTON (AP) — As soon as Eloisa Leija, 9,
realized her five sisters and brother had been
thrown into a muddy bayou Friday afternoon,
she ran to nearby Houston police headquarters
for help. People who know the girl are not sur
prised by this display of responsibility.
Eloisa is described by teachers as “wise in the
ways of life, but not in academics.”
Her mother Juana Maria Leija, 29, has been
charged with two counts of capital murder for
the deaths of her children, Judas Dimas, 6 and
Juana Maria, 5. The others survived the tragedy.
One teacher, who declined to be identified,
said she visited the Leija home four or five con
secutive evenings in March, but the parents were
never at home.
"The last time I went, Eloisa was caring for Ju
das and the younger children who were out
doors,” the teacher said. “Eloisa kept them out of
the street. There was no food in the house. Eloisa
holds that family together."
Each day after school Eloisa waited for Judas,
a first-grader, so both could cross a busy avenue
together.
“It was as if Eloisa was the mother.” the tea
cher said.
In the last few months, Eloisa has worked and
hard and achieved good grades, hut sometimes
she was taunted by other childrenbtoi
tattered clothes.
On Friday she stayed after schooli
her favorite teacher, lingering as loni::
“If only I had known,” said the!e
was not identified. “She likes to speK
time with me as possible. Friday ala
rushed hei off. She wanted so badlvrj
couldn't stay."
According to police, Mrs. Leija haij
didn't want her children to live am!
