ics at 103 N. College Ave. was
:cted by David Pickens. Score

)n was called due to a customer
fenplaint. The report said a two-
Jint violation was given because

[A one-point violation in the re-
prt was given because a shelf

BlO Cavitt in Bryan was in
fected by David Plett. Score —
A five-point violation in the
report was given because cleaning
(supplies were stored near food
Tms.
David Jefferson, a registered sanitarian at the department, says
vslaurants with scores of 95 or above generally have excellent opera-
- thateva ions and facilities. Jefferson says restaurants with scores in the 70s or
aw 80s usually have serious violations on the health report.
Scores can be misleading, Jefferson says, because restaurants can
thieve the same score by having several major violations or an abun-
lance of minor violations. He says the major violations might close an
16 'iblishment down while some minor violations can be corrected
ated Uf-IP’Me the health inspector is still in the building during the inspection.
Jefferson says the department might close a restaurant if: the score
$ below 60, the personnel has infectious diseases, the restaurant lacks
idequate refrigeration, a sewage backup exists in the building, the res-
n| My aurant has acomplete lack of sanitization for the food equipment.
Point deductions, or violations, on the report form range from a
me point (minor violation) to five points (major violation). The de-
the eni mtment inspects each restaurant about every six months.
Sometimes a follow-up inspection must be made, usually within 10
days. Jefferson says a restaurant might require a follow-up inspection
fit has a four- or five-point violation that cannot be corrected while
he inspector is still there or there are numerous small violations.
Inspectors are registered sanitarians at the department.

Clements: Texans
must concentrate
on state’s future
By Mike Sullivan
Staff Writer
Reminiscing about Texas history
during the Sesquicentennial is nice,
but Texas must concentrate on the
future if it wants to get back on
track, Republican gubernatorial can
didate Bill Clements told about 400
students at a Rudder Fountain rally
Monday.
“The real name of the game is
where we are going in the future,”
Clements said.
Clements said he is running for
governor again because he is con
cerned about Texas’ future. He said
today’s college students also should
be concerned because their future
will be shaped by this election.
Clements said enthusiasm among
college students about the election is
good, but it doesn’t matter unless
they vote in the primary election Sat
urday.
“What kind of Texas are we going
to have as we go into the 21st centu
ry?” Clements said.
Texas can continue along the path
that Gov. Mark White has cleared, or
it can return a business climate to the
government, Clements said.
Clements said White broke his
campaign promises by raising tu
ition, raising taxes and increasing
the cost of utilities.
“We do not need the kind of lead
ership we have now,” Clements said.
A successful businessman himself,
Clements said Texas needs to main-
tain its strong sense of
entrepreneurship.
But raising taxes won’t be condu
cive to this goal, he said.
“We don’t need anymore taxes,”
he said. “We have sufficient taxes.”

Panelists discuss eating disorders
‘Anorexics seek to fit perfect mold’
By Mona Palmer
Staff Writer
Many women in today’s society are suffering
from such diseases as bulimia and anorexia in an
effort to fit the perfect mold, Kerry Hope, asso
ciate director of counseling at A&M, told an au
dience of about 300 Monday in Rudder Tower.
Drs. Sara Alpern, assistant professor of his
tory; Alex McIntosh, associate professor of socio
logy, and Alice Hunt, a nutrition specialist,
joined Hope for a panel discussion on eating dis
orders. Joni Cady, a liscensed clinical social
worker from Los Angeles, was the featured
speaker at the discussion sponsored by MSC
Great Issues and the Agriculture and Liberal
Arts Project.
Hope said that society tells women they must
be perfect — they must work hard at their pro
fession, care for their children, give undivided
attention to their husbands and look beautiful
and thin in the process.
Hope recalled a cologne commercial.
“I can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan,
and never, never let you forget you’re a man. . . .
Obviously that woman’s got to be on drugs,” she
said.
Many women try to be the superwoman society
expects, Hope said. But when they realize they
can’t, they feel out of control and reach out to
food for comfort, she said.
Cady also emphasized the burden that society
has put on women.
The main point, she said, is that the unachie
vable and abnormal have become normal. In a
poll taken by Glamour Magazine, she said, only 6
percent of the women polled were comfortable
with their bodies.
Cady stressed that the family environment
contributes to eating disorders.
Many families don’t give their children
enough emotional nourishment, she said, which
causes young women to turn to food to satisfy
emotional needs.
“When feelings, needs, desires can’t be talked
about, then the environment is ripe for an eating
disorder,” Cady said.
Hope added that food is not the main issue.
Recognizing internal feelings and dealing with
anxiety and depression are the main points, she
said.
“I try to teach people to be more nuturing to
themselves. To find the child in themselves who
is spontaneous. . . and honest.
“The main thing is recognizing what’s going
on inside and not to lie about it.”
Hunt emphasized the social aspect of eating.
“We don’t east just for nutrition,” she said.
“We’ve all learned to use food in different ways.”
People use food as a symbol of welcome when
they have guests, Hunt said. And many parents
use food as a reward or punishment with their
children, she added.
To conquer an addiction to food, Hunt sug
gested developing other interests and developing
positive, socially acceptable addictions.
