Get a grip, Redstone doesn’t have all that.
Redstone DOES have the lowest rent on
two bedroom apartments of any com
parable complex in town. And with an an
nual lease you save even more. Redstone
is less than a mile from campus, on the
shuttle bus route and near dozens of
shops, banks and restaurants. Redstone
has a volleyball-pool, new Jacuzzi with
sun deck, security patrol and on-site
maintenance.
No apartment complex gives you more
than Redstone. (Even if we don’t give you
a 27-story parking garage with valet
service.)

Prof receives
recognition,
title of honor
University News Service
Dr. Michael A. Hitt, professor and
head of the Texas A&M manage
ment department, has been named
the T.J. Barlow Professor in Busi
ness Administration.
Hitt earned his doctorate of busi
ness administration in organization
al theory/behavior with a minor in
business policy from the University
of Colorado in 1974. He received
both his bachelor’s and master’s of
business administration from Texas
Tech University.
During Hitt’s two years at A&M,
the department initiated a master’s
degree in management with a con
centration in personnel and human
resources.
Hitt was also involved in the de
velopment of the newly authorized
Center for Entrepreneurship and
New Venture Management in the
business college.
The T.J. Barlow Professorship in
Business Administration was estab
lished through an endowment made
by The Clayton Fund and Anderson
Clayton & Co. as a tribute to Barlow.
Proposed bill
would protect
stars’ names
AUSTIN (AP) — The Texas
House voted preliminary approval
Thursday to the “Buddy Holly bill”
that would allow survivors of per
sonalities to hold rights to the de
ceased’s name, voice and likeness for
50 years.
Rep. A1 GranofPs bill, advanced
on voice vote, faces a final House
vote that would send it to the Senate.
The measure was brought to
Granoffs attention by Maria Elena
Holly Diaz, widow of rock singer
Buddy Holly.
At a House committee hearing
last month, her lawyer said numer
ous businesses have been using Hol
ly’s picture in their advertising cam
paigns without seeking permission.
Under current Texas law, there is
no restriction on the use of names
and pictures of dead people, Gran-
off said.
“What we’re doing is following a
California statute, to some extent,
and establishing a property right so
that when a famous person dies his
name is not just commercially ex
ploited,” he said.
Granoff, D-Dallas, said his hill
doesn’t cover journalistic accounts
about famous deceased people.
The bill would allow survivors of
personalities to register with the Sec
retary of State’s office in order to
protect rights to the deceased per
son’s name, voice, signature, photo
graph or likeness. The rights would
last for 50 years after the personali
ty’s death.
Rep. Alan Schoolcraft, R-San An
tonio, offered an amendment that
Granoff said would have gutted the
bill. Schoolcraft said he saw major
problems in GranofPs version.
“I understand and I think we all
sympathize with the family of a de
ceased person who sees their family
member being used that way,”
Schoolcraft said. “And I think we
should do something about it. But
under this legislation you also could
not honor somebody by naming a
stadium after them or a road after
them.”
The Schoolcraft amendment lost,
52-76.

The Texas A&M Faculty Sen

The resolution, which will be
submitted at the Senate meeting

The resolution also suggests an

future.

House OKs $39.4 billion spending bill
AUSTIN (AP) — The Senate Fi
nance Committee has approved a
two-year spending bill that would re
quire at least $2.5 billion in new reve
nue, but Lt. Gov. Bill Hobby, the
Senate’s presiding officer, said the
proposal does not meet the needs of
the state.
The appropriations bill, calling
for $39.4 billion, was approved 10-0
late Wednesday.
Hobby said Thursday the bill does
not really meet the needs of the
state, but it is at the level the state
can afford.
Asked what could be done to meet
the needs of the state, Hobby said,
“Well, we need to pass a tax bill, ob
viously.”
“I think it is a good bill, a long
time ahead of schedule,” he said of
the spending bill.
