A&M official says
budget cuts won’t
cripple University
Davis says advance planning
will minimize harm to budget
By Mona Palmer
Assistant City Editor
The budget cuts passed by the
Legislature in the second special ses
sion won’t devastate Texas A&M’s
budget because the reductions were
anticipated and planned for, an
A&M official said.
The cuts will reduce A&M’s 1986
budget by 4.5 percent and the 1987
budget by 6 percent.
“We had already planned and an
ticipated cuts in the budget,” said
Dr. Eddie J. Davis, vice president for
fiscal affairs. “We are in the position
to manage. . . . We will continue to
conserve.”
Davis said the Board of Regents
reduced A&M’s budget by 7 percent
in spring 1986 in accordance with
Gov. Mark White’s ordered spend
ing reductions.
The spring budget cuts will result
in a $37 million savings in 1986. The
largest cuts approved in the spring
were a hiring freeze and a cut in util
ity spending — a combined savings
of $24.2 million. Cuts in mainte
nance, capital improvements, travel,
capital equipment and the early sale
of forest timber totaled $12.8 mil
lion.
Davis said the cuts recently man
dated by the Legislature do not ex
ceed White’s order.
“The bottom line is that the Legis
lature acted responsibily . . . and
didn’t go beyond what the governor
had asked us (the University) to do.”
Robert Smith, associate vice presi
dent for fiscal affairs, said the Legis
lature’s cuts in higher education
were inevitable and were the best
University officials could expect.
The Legislature considered some
programs such as public education
sacred, Smith said, but higher edu
cation was not spared.
China’s National Day
celebrated at A&M
By Pam Deleery
Reporter
About 400 students, faculty mem
bers and guests celebrated the Na
tional Day of the People’s Republic
of China here Sunday.
Just as Americans celebrate the
Fourth of July, the Chinese celebrate
National Day. They spend it with
friends and family members — eat
ing and drinking and having a good
time. National Day is the official hol
iday held to commemorate the
founding of the People’s Republic of
China. The 37th anniversary of the
event was Oct. 1.
The reception was sponsored by ,
the China Club, which treated its
guests to a buffet of Chinese delica
cies with food ranging from tradi
tional egg rolls to Chinese barbecue.
Guests tried a variety of Chinese
soups, sweet potato fries, sweet and
sour pork and, of course, fortune
cookies.
Dr. William Mobley, deputy chan
cellor, congratulated the Chinese
students on their National Day cele
bration in his brief welcome speech.
Tina Watkins, international stu
dent adviser, discussed the role of
the International Student Associa
tion in helping Chinese students.
Not only does the organization help
Chinese students deal with home
sickness, but it also teaches the stu
dents about the American system
and way of life.
Jun Li, China Club president, ex
pressed his appreciation to Ameri
cans for their consideration and
kindness toward the Chinese stu
dents.
Huayi Tong, spokesperson for
the club, said the organization is de
signed to promote cultural and tech
nical exchanges between Chinese
students and the students, faculty
and staff at A&M. The club also pro
vides social activities for Chinese vis
iting scholars, students and their
families, he said.
UT robot research project
gets $4.2 million contract
AUSTIN (AP) — The U.S. De
partment of Energy has awarded the
University of Texas a $4.2 million
contract to help design a robot that
would repair nuclear reactors and
remove terrorist bombs.
Delbert Tesar, a UT mechanical
engineering professor who is direct
ing the research project, said, “Even
if no new reactors are built, existing
ones will have an increasing need for
this technology, and it will be needed
for fusion reactors as well.”
Some UT engineers working on
the project want the robot to be hu
man in appearance, similar in some
respects to Hollywood movie robots,
Tesar said.
“If we do it right, we’ll have mod
ules for the system — arms, wrists
and joints — that may or may not
look like their biological cousins,” he
said. “But I’m in favor of it looking
more like a mechanical structure.”
The robot will be “highly dexter
ous” and rigged to be operated by
humans, Tesar said.
A major use for the robot system
would be repair of steam-generator
tubes in nuclear reactors, he said.
“We’ve analyzed this (use) extensi
vely and found that the robot system
could save the industry about $300
million a year in 1980 dollars,” Tesar
said.
Tesar said the robot system could
be used for the highly dangerous
work of “decommissioning,” or dis
mantling, nuclear power plants that
have been permanently shut down.
The robot also could be used to re
move terrorist bombs, or to clean up
debris after an earthquake or a coal
mine disaster, he said.
