By Mona Palmer

Sociology and nutrition ex-
)erts will meet Monday to discuss
he causes and effects of eating
lisorders.
The panel discussion, featur-
ng four Texas A&M faculty
nembers and a nutritionist from
California, is sponsored by MSC
Creat Issues and the Agriculture
md Liberal Arts Project. The
irogram will begin at 8 p.m. in
wrung Mi Rudder Tower. Admission is
wr. fa fee.
Program executive for MSC
ivirritJHreat Issues, Shelly Oliver, said
ptised clinical social worker,
oni Cady, will be the featured
peaker. Currently, Cady is in
rrivate practice in Los Angeles
lelping people with eating disor
ders.
The other panelists are Sara
Alpern, assistant professor of his-
v; Kerry Hope, associate clirec-
;orof counseling; Alex McIntosh,
S issociate professor of sociology;
md Alice Hunt, a nutrition doc-
orate.
r
The discussions will cover a
broad range of topics including
bulimia and anorexia. The pan
elists will approach the problems
differently.
Cady approaches disorders as
an addiction and also looks at the
family influence, Oliver said,
while Hope is concerned with the
family aspect and the sociological
aspect of eating disorders.
McIntosh will concentrate on
the sociology of nutrition. Hunt
will look at the patient’s treat
ment.
The panel’s purpose is td broa
den students’ perspectives and
awareness of eating disorders.
At least 20 percent of all col
lege w'omen in the United States
are bulimic, she said. Some stud
ies indicate that up to 75 percent
of all college women display occa
sional bulimic behavior.
Bulimia means consuming a
large amount of calories in a
short period of time but does not
alw'ays lead to purging.

Army reservists
plan 102-mile
flag-relay run
By Paula Vogrin
Reporter
More than 150 Bryan and College
Station residents serve the country
through the 420th Engineer Brigade
of the Army Reserve in Bryan, and
17 of those reservists are willing to
prove they are in it for the long run.
To mark the beginning of two-
w'eek annual Reserve Training Sat
urday, 17 members of the 420th will
relay-run the company’s flag to the
training site at Fort Hood, 102 miles
away.
Four Texas A&M students — Sel-
wyn Miller, Brad Szalwinski, Jerome
Burns and Carl Coffman — will par
ticipate in the run.
The run will begin at 4:30 a.m. at
the Moore Memorial Reserve Center
on Carson Street in Bryan. The
route to Fort Hood will take runners
through Hearne, Mayfield and
Temple, and the final runner should
arrive at Fort Hood around 7:30
p.m.
Sgt. 1st Class K. Craig Barham,
public affairs supervisor for the
420th, said the run is part of the
“Army of Excellence” theme of an
nual training this year.
“Every year the Army comes up
with a theme for the annual training
exercises,” he said. “Several years
ago ‘Army of Excellence’ was imple
mented and it has been with us ever
since. The Army stresses different
areas of excellence each year to in
still pride in the members. This year
that area will be values.”
Barham said annual training is
made up of individual and unit exer
cises and classes.
“Unit training includes loading
equipment onto aircraft and rail
road flatcars, and individual training
has to do with things like map read
ing and chemical warfare defenses,”
he said.
Annual training is important for
reservists, he said, because it is the
only time the soldiers are able to per
form as a unit under simulated bat
tle conditions.
Barham said members of the
420th spend a minimum of 38 days
per year preparing and training for
the time when they may be called to
defend the country. One-weekend-
per-month drills and the two-week
annual training period make up the
Reservists’ minimum service sched
ule.
First Sgt. Greg Shirley, of the
Headquarters Company, said an
nual training is often more challeng
ing than the reservists expect.
“During annual training, work
days may last as long as 18 hours
when the unit is on 24-hours-a-day
operations,” Shirley said, “and many
new members are surprised at the
number of demands put on them
during this time.”
$1.5 million to go
to widow of Dallas
plane crash victim
FORT WORTH (AP) — A $1.5
million settlement has been reached
in a suit filed by a woman whose hus
band died two months after he was
injured in the crash of Delta Air
Lines Flight 191, her attorney says.
The settlement, which was
reached Wednesday, came two days
after Charlene R. Vicich, 28, filed a
lawsuit accusing the airline of oper
ating Flight 191 in a careless and
reckless manner and in “willful and
wanton disregard for the safety of
passengers.”
The Aug. 2 crash at Dallas-Fort
Worth International Airport killed
137 people.
Attorneys had negotiated with
U.S. Aviation, Delta’s insurance car
rier, for several months before filing
the suit, said Vincent Velardo, a
New Jersey attorney representing
Vicich.
“We felt that it represented a fair
figure for the case,” he said. “We felt
like neither time nor a jury would
benefit her any more. To wait would
only have hurt her more than she’s
been hurt.”
Mark S. Vicich, 29, died Oct. 3 in
the Parkland Memorial Hospital in
Dallas. He had been treated for a
broken neck and burns over 85 per
cent of his body.
“She suffered along with him,”
Velardo said. “She was under terrific
strain and stress.”
In addition to the $1.5 million set
tlement, Delta also agreed to pay Vi-
cich’s $265,000 hospital bill.
Vicich, a sales representive for
Izod sportswear for women, was re
turning from a business trip to Flor
ida when the plane crashed. The
couple had been married for two
years.
Meanwhile, Delta filed papers
Tuesday in federal court in Fort
Worth seeking to have the govern
ment pay all damages awarded by
the court.
The airline’s third-party com
plaint claims negligent acts by air
traffic controllers working for the
Federal Aviation Administration
and National Weather Service fore
casters caused the crash of the L-
1011 as it approached the airport in
severe weather.
A formal investigation by the Na
tional Transportation Safety Board
has not yet determined the probable
cause of the crash. The panel is
scheduled to meet June 24 to discuss
its investigation.
Last month, the airline filed a $34
million claim against the govern
ment to pay for costs already in
curred by the airline, including the
costs of the lost aircraf t and of medi
cal and other financial support given
to victims and their relatives.
