Yell leaders speak
on A&M traditions
during symposium
By Leslie Farguson
Reporter
Head yell leader Marty Holmes
said Wednesday that when he came
to Texas A&M he was taught tradi
tions and he feels it is his duty to pass
these traditions untarnished down to
new students.
“Traditions have been lacking and
we’re trying to get them back,”
Holmes said.
Speaking at Sully’s Symposium,
Holmes said one of the biggest prob
lems he has as a yell leader is trying
to get people to say “howdy.”
He pointed out that the word it
self isn’t that important, but ac
knowledging the presence of other
people on campus is.
“This is one of our biggest com
plaints from old Ags,” Holmes said.
He was accompanied by three of
the four other yell leaders: Troy Ire
land, Doug Beall and John Bean.
Holmes also told listeners about
Kyle Field rules.
“You cannot have signs or beach
balls at Kyle Field,” Holmes said.
“You also can’t bring booze into the
stadium.”
He reminded listeners that they
are not supposed to hiss after Aggie
yells.
“That’s like hissing at ourselves,”
he said. “Aggies don’t boo either.
We’re supposed to be above that.”
Holmes said it is the former stu
dents that seem the most concerned
about keeping up tradition.
“I am going to keep getting on my
soapbox until things get better,”
Holmes said.
The symposium is sponsored by
Lambda Sigma, a sophomore honor
service society, and is held in front of
the Lawrence Sullivan Ross statue
every Wednesday at 11:50 a.m.
Mauro: Beach cleanup
priority for commission
By Leigh Ann Rogers
Reporter
Texas Land Commissioner Garry
Mauro said Wednesday that his of
fice will make clean Texas beaches a
major priority with a four-part plan
for beach cleanup.
In a press conference at Eas-
terwood Airport, Mauro said the
plan includes new get-tough regula
tions against offshore dumping and
will emphasize the commission’s
“Don’t Mess With Texas” slogan.
Mauro said he will tighten regula
tions against offshore dumping by
operators of offshore platforms and
seismic boats.
He said that between 75 percent
and 90 percent of the state’s beach
litter is washed ashore from the Gulf
of Mexico. He added that only 15
percent can be attributed to dump
ing from offshore platforms and
seismic vessels.
“As land commissioner, I can
make a 15 percent difference by
making sure that anyone messing
with Texas beaches loses their lea
ses,” Mauro said.
Mauro said the commission also
will work with local and state govern
ments to ensure that visitors don’t
litter on Texas beaches.
He said the third part of the plan
is to gain the cooperation of the fed
eral government and the Gulf states,
especially Louisiana, to stop plat
form dumping outside Texas.
“Texas has about 92 platforms in
Garry Mauro
Texas state waters and 295 plat
forms in federal state waters,”
Mauro said. “Louisiana has 3100
platforms in Louisiana state waters,”
Mauro said.
He used a shoreline map to point
out that currents pull the Louisiana
trash over to Texas waters.
“The fourth part of the plan —
and the most important part —' is to
work with foreign governments, the
Texas Maritime Commission and
the United States Department of Ag
riculture, to curb ocean dumping by
international shipping,” Mauro said.
This dumping is a problem be
cause of the shipping lanes and the
seven ports in Texas, Mauro said.
