Students can try shark, lamb dishes in ‘Taste of Texas’ By Chris Cay wood-Brennan Reporter Tired of eating the same cafeteria food every day? Well, get ready to try some not-so- monotonous foods in the campus dining rooms starting today and running through Friday. “A Taste of Texas” is a concept designed to introduce students to unusual yet nutritious foods avail able in Texas, says Joseph Bier- mann, dining center manager and chairman of the program. “We’re trying to feature items na tive to Texas,” Biermann says. Organized in cooperation with and sponsored by the Texas Depart ment of Agriculture, the Texas food week was tried at the University of Texas a year ago and was such a suc cess that Lloyd Smith, assistant di rector of the Texas A&M Depart ment of Food Services, thought it would be a good idea to try it here. Biermann says samples of differ ent foods will be featured each day of the week in the campus dining fa cilities. All of the featured foods are nutritious, native to Texas and eco nomical, he says. The menu, listed in order of ap pearance, is: • Monday — crawfish, a freshwa ter crustacean high in protein and low in fat. • Tuesday — shark meat, which is boneless and a good source of pro tein and vitamin A. • • Wednesday — cottage cheese, the simplest form of fresh cheese, which is high in protein, vitamins and minerals. • Thursday — lamb, which is very tender and is a good source of protein, zinc, iron and B-vitamins. • Friday — spinach, a vegetable that may be eaten cooked or raw’ and provides calcium, vitamin A, vitamin C and iron. The program’s purpose is to in troduce students to a variety of foods, Biermann says, while break ing the monotony of cafeteria food. The foods used in the program are recommended by the Texas De partment of Agriculture and are in cluded in the dining facility board plan, he says. In addition to the food samples, he says, there will be daily drawings for “A Taste of Texas” caps and aprons. If “A Taste of Texas” is success ful, Biermann says, the program will be implemented again next year, with the addition of other food items. “We hope it will become an an nual thing,” he says. “It probably will if it’s as successful as the one at the University of Texas.” Congress to probe conduct of Dallas police to minorities DALLAS (AP) — The Dallas Po lice Department will be the target of scrutiny this week when a congres sional probe begins into allegations of police misconduct in the minority community. The House Subcommittee on Criminal Justice, chaired by U.S. Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., ex pects to call 25 witnesses at the hear ings set for Friday and Saturday. The public hearings were re quested by local black elected offi cials and community leaders who protested the fatal police shooting last October of a 70-year-old black woman who had reported a bur glary. The officer was fired one day after a grand jury cleared him in the case. The House panel will not issue rulings on any shooting cases nor call witneses or evidence. Panel spokesmen said all testimony will be voluntary. “Basically there is a feeling of dis trust in the minority community to ward the police,” said U.S. Rep. Martin Frost of Dallas, who, with fel low Dallas Rep. John Bryant, relayed the request for a hearing to Conyers. Price and other minority leaders hope the congressional probe will uphold their claim that police insen sitivity to minorities is linked to the disproportionate number of mi nority victims.
