Twelve people were chosen as the first members of the Aggie Demo crat Alumni Association. Chris Efird, Aggie Democrats’ president, said the association is a support group which supplies valu able resources to the organization. “These people have information and connections that we as students just do not have,” Efird said. Eight of those honored attended Texas A&M: state senators Kent Ca- perton, Chet Edwards and John Sharp; state Rep. Rick Perry; Texas Land Commissioner Garry Mauro; ustice C.L. Ray and attorneys Greg aughlin and Don Mauro. Others chosen were Pete Geren, who is campaigning for the 6th Con gressional District seat, state Rep. Clint Hackney, College Station Unit- edbank Chairman Calvin Guest and former state Rep. Neeley Lewis. Efird said that while most of the people chosen did attend A&M, it wasn’t necessarily a factor. “The people we chose are ded icated to the idea of the Democratic Party and want to help keep an Ag gie organization going,” he said. Although he stressed financial support as an important factor, Efird said the people chosen also bring insight that the Aggie Demo crats need from the community to the campus. Efird said he hopes the association will show that the Aggie Democrats no longer can be taken lightly. “We haven’t had the experience, the ideas, or the money," Efird said. “Now we can make our presence be known.” Carolyn Foster, vice president of programs for the Aggie Democrats, said the 12 were chosen from a group of about 50 Democrats di rectly involved in politics. t Aggie Parents of the Year honored at football game By Lesley Mann Reporter Joan Heye got a big surprise last April when they came to Texas A&M for Parents’ Weekend. They were named Aggie Parents of the Year. Saturday afternoon, in a brief ceremony before the football f ;ame, the Heyes were honored or this distinction. The Heyes said that being named Parents of the Year came as a big shock. The Heyes have four children. Three currently are attending A&M, and one son, Bill, grad uated from A&M in 1983. Pat, Kathy and John Heye decided last spring to nominate their par ents for the award. “We decided to do it because we thought they deserved the rec ognition,” Pat said. “They had put a lot of effort into supporting their kids through college, and we wanted people to know about it. “It was our way of paying them back.” The Heyes live in Richardson, where Mr. Heye is vice president and general manager of AirBorn Connectors, Inc., and Mrs. Heye is a part-time substitute secretary for the school district. “Being with the young men and women here at school and getting to know them better is my favorite thing about being at A&M,” Mr. Heye said. “There is a certain wholeness, maturity and responsibility among the students here. “Our involvement is at its peak while the kids are here. But it will o i Photo by GregBiikf Renee Dix, chairman of the Parents Weekend committee, preiento William B. “Bill” and Joan Heye with a plaque honoring them u Aggie Parents of the Year. continue even after they’re gone.” Mrs. Heye said, “A&M has given us a lot more than we’ve given them, so anytime they call on us, we’ll help.” Mr. Heye is a founding mem ber of the Corps Development Council, and serves on itiet# utive committee. He was a speaker at Muster in 1982 us has led a roundtable at the fe dent Conference on National.l 1 fairs.

Tom Loeffler gave up a seat in Congress to run for gover nor, he said much of the reason was that he wanted to spend more time with his family in Texas.

Loeffler filed for divorce in Ker- rville Sept. 18 because the “marriage has become insupportable," hiiilj vorce petition states.
