Parade, ball highlight A&M Mardi Gras
By Tammy Hedgpeth
Reporter
The Off-Campus Aggies orga
nization wants Texas A&M stu
dents to “Catch the Spirit” during
its first “Mardi Gras at A&M” cel
ebration.
Activities begin Friday at 6
p.m. with a parade running from
the MSC to behind Duncan Din
ing Hall.
The parade has 30 entries in
cluding the Ross Volunteers, Par
sons’ Mounted Calvary and the
A&M Consolidated High School
Band.
Spuds MacKenzie, the popular
mutt featured in some recent
beer advertisements, will be the
feature attraction on OCA’s float
— a replica of the Dixie Chicken
— OCA President Scott Mendell
said.
“This parade actually is larger
than most parades in New Or
leans,” Mendell said. “It’s a lot
longer — most parades in New
Orleans have only 20 or 25
floats.”
Dr. John Koldus, vice presi
dent of student services, will serve
as Mardi Gras king, while Reveille
will serve as Mardi Gras queen.
Tommy Kunkleman, 6, of Col
lege Station, will accompany Kol
dus and Reveille on the king’s
float as “Mr. Aggie Spirit.”
Kunkleman, often seen wear
ing a mini yell-leader outfit at
A&M volleyball and basketball
games, has been entertaining
A&M fans for two seasons.
The celebration will continue
after the parade with a masquer
ade ball at 9 p.m. in the Ramada
Inn Ballroom.
An award will be given for the
best costume, but costumes aren’t
required. Music will be provided
by the Executives.
Presale tickets are $6 for sin
gles and $8 for couples. Tickets at
the door are $8 and $10, respec
tively.
Masks will be given to the first
500 people who arrive at the ball.
People aged 21 and older can
indulge in free beer and a cash
bar.
Non-alcoholic beverages and
other refreshments also will be
available.
OCA has been working on the
Mardi Gras project since Septem
ber, Mendell said, and costs have
totalled about $10,000.
OCA will sell “Mardi Gras at
A&M” T-shirts, posters and mugs
for the remainder of the week for
$8.50, $4 and $3, respectively.
The items can be purchased at
the MSC, Sbisa Dining Hall and
the Commons, as well as at the
parade and the ball.
Several local businesses have
supported OCA Mardi Gras, in
cluding Cain Properties, New
man Printing, Rother’s Bookstore
and KKYS radio station.

ABILENE (AP) — On the Circle
R Ranch, round-ups are held at least
twice a week and the livestock is dis
persed to buyers scattered from
Washington state to New York state
— via parcel post.
If you infer that the Circle R is an
unusual spread, you’re right.
For one thing, the range covers
about 4,000 square feet. For an
other, the livestock are earthworms.
Ruben Thiele has been earth
worm ranching for about 20 years in
Abilene.
He began in 1967 after suffering
a heart attack. The doctor told him
he needed a hobby. At the time, he
was a linotype operator for the Abi
lene Reporter-News and the Circle R
was a part-time occupation.
He started out with about 6,000
worms, never bought another worm,
and last year sold about 6,250,000 of
the critters without making a dent in
his herd.
It seems that, if there were a
breeding contest, worms would
come out way ahead of rabbits. Each
mature female worm produces
about four egg capsules per month.
The eggs hatch in 21 days and each
capsule may produce as many as 20
worms.
When he first started, Thiele sold
worms retail — to fishermen and
gardeners. He since has moved into
the big time. He now sells his Ten
nessee Brown Nose earthworms
wholesale to suppliers.
He has customers in New York,
Washington, Arkansas, Florida, Ok
lahoma ... he once even furnished a
batch of worm eggs to an experi
mental station in London, England.
In the 1970s, he sold some worms
to two young women from Cooper
High School. They were going to en
ter a “Worm Cake” in the science
fair, but they didn’t win a prize, he
said.
Raising worms doesn’t involve be
ing up before dawn, riding fences or
even making sure the gates are
locked. What it does involve, Thiele
says, is feeding every week or so,
keeping the beds slightly moist and
periodically cleaning out the beds.
Worm ranching is a low-overhead
occimation. Thiele says he makes a

Texas prisons
top capacity,
close again
HUNTSVILLE (AP) — The
Texas prison system, swollen by
some 800 new inmates over two
days, closed again Wednesday after
topping a state-mandated popula
tion capacity.
The shutdown, the sixth this year,
came despite implementation of a
new Prison Management Act that
enabled the governor to approve re
lease of nearly 200 inmates to half
way houses over the weekend.
Ocean Pacific
The latest headcount in the 26-
unit Texas Department of Correc
tions showed 38,496 inmates —
95.20 percent or 82 over the 95 per
cent capacity mandated by law.
Those figures, based on a mid
night Tuesday count, did not take
into account an estimated 260 in
mates accepted before prison doors
closed at 5 p.m. Wednesday.
