(Continued from page 1)
Kitten describes the Catholic
Church’s position on Satanism as
strong.
“Anything that becomes a mis
placed worship would be wrong with
any religious group,” he says. “This
is a replacement of a force of evil for
a source of good. For it would ob
viously be wrong. It would be wrong
in an extreme way because it’s not
only the replacement of money for
God, but of evil incarnate for God.
It is the ultimate replacement.”
Dale Culberthson, a sergeant in
the Bryan Police Department, says
isolated reports concerning Sata
nism and the occult have been re
ported in the area, including muti
lated cows, fires and the painting of
occult symbols on buildings.
Three years ago, a group of high
school students were apprehended
on the Texas A&M campus by Uni
versity Police for breaking into Rud
der Tower and conducting a satanic
ceremony.
Bob Wiatt, director of security
and University Police, says the stu
dents were in the midst of having a
ceremony when officers arrived at
the scene. Police confiscated their
materials, including symbols, knives,
daggers, robes and books.

Jonah filled in for U.N. Secretary-
General Javier Perez de Cuellar,
who was scheduled to speak but
could not attend due to current af
fairs in Namibia.
“People many times wonder why
the United Nations has taken a hos
tile attitude toward Israel or the situ
ation in the Middle East,” Jonah
said. “Unless there are sufficient
changes on all sides, we may be drift
ing once more to powder keg (not
peace),” he said.
Jonah said the United Nations has
a policy of opposing the occupation
of territory.
“It’s a long tradition,” Jonah said,
The students were taken to the
campus police station and were re
ferred to juvenile probation.
Jerry Ellis, principal of Bryan
High School, says he’s seen occult-
related activities on his campus only
on a limited basis. Chalk symbols
were found on walls and messages
were written on bathroom mirrors,
but he doesn’t consider it a problem
at the high school and says the ad
ministration “feels good about the
situation.”
Kitten says it would be difficult
for the Catholic Church to begin any
type of course or counseling pro
gram about Satanism because of the
difficulties of sustaining it over time.
However, he says he would be sur
prised if churches in the Brownsville
area (a town on the Mexican-Ameri-
can border) do not respond to the
situation there concerning death of
the UT student.
Father Ralph Rogawski, a travel
ling missionary for the Dominican
Missionary Preaching Team, who
lives in McAllen, which is approxi
mately 50 miles from Brownsville,
says the church there is not consid
ering a program focusing on the
dangers of the occult because he
doesn’t believe the 12 deaths in Mex
ico are necessarily cult-related.
“Just because of the incident
We need to build up a

says. “The church is going to be slow
in dealing with it without a thorough
investigation into the matter. You

“We feel obliged to support the
Palestinian people. It’s my belief that
we can’t expect just and lasting peace
until the Palestinians are satisfied.”
The panel discussion was moder
ated by Ed Bradley, co-editor of
CBS’ “60 Minutes.”

been abused exists, Patterson says.
Patterson says 95 percent of the
people Exodus has treated claimed
to be suicidal, and 75 percent of
them claimed to have come from
homes where they were either sex
ually or physically abused.
Though Satanism is a recognized
religion, several offshoots of it exist.
Some of these don’t believe in Satan
as a deity they should worship, Pat
terson says. She says that often, it’s
up to the individual to believe what
they want to believe.
“They believe in what they think is
Satanism,” she said. “It may be dif
ferent from what you or I think it
is.”
Grad fee
(Continued from page 3)
“Many students apply to the uni
versity just to see if they’ll get in,”
Brown said. “Somewhere the cost of
processing has to be paid and an ap
plication fee seems the most obvious
choice.”
Texas Tech University and Rice
University are examples of schools
that do not charge an application
fee. Officials from both universities
said costs for applications are made
up in other school fees.
Debbie Thorne, an A&M grad
uate student in marketing, said she
was surprised that A&M did not
have an application fee.
“I completed my undergraduate
work at Abilene Christian University
where we had a fee,” Thorne said.
“So when I applied last summer I
found it unusual that A&M didn’t
charge one.”
Thorne said the $25 charge is rea
sonable.
“The fee causes potential students
to be more selective, therefore rais
ing the quality of the University,” she
said. “Besides, if a student really
wants to go to a school, paying $25
shouldn’t stop them.”
Engelgau said if a student leaves
the University for whatever the rea
son, upon re-admittance he must
pay the fee.

questions.
"He agreed to give me five minutes
for the interview, and he said to me,
This isn’t your first day on the job, is
it?’ And I said, ‘No, not really.’
Never telling the truth but not tell
ing a lie — it wasn’t my first day be
cause I didn’t have the job yet.”
After working for WCBS for
more than three years, Bradley de
cided to move to Paris, where he
worked as a CBS stringer — or free
lance reporter — for more than a
year. When he returned to New
York in 1971, CBS offered him a
desk job in New York, which is when
Bradley’s flippant remark began to
change his career.
“When I came back from Paris, I
realized that I had to get back into
this business all of the way or get out
of it all the way,” he said. “So I went
to New York and met with the for
eign editor of CBS. He said he knew
1 wanted to live overseas, but that he
didn’t have anywhere overseas to
send me. He said he could probably
find me a desk job in New York.
“I was not enamored of New York
at the time. I was trying to think of
the worst place in the world, and I
said, ‘New York? I’d rather live in
Vietnam than in New York.’
“He looked at me and said, ‘Are
you volunteering?’ ”
In 1972, Bradley was sent to CBS’
Saigon bureau for 20 months. When
the United States pulled out of Viet
nam, Bradley was reassigned to the
Washington bureau.
“I came back to Washington and
was terribly unhappy,” he said. “I
didn’t like being low man on the to
tem pole, and there were 28 report
ers in the bureau at that time, and I
was number 28. I never got anything
aired, and I hated it.
“The foreign editor called me on
a Thursday and asked if I would
consider going back to Cambodia. I
said yes, but he told me to think
about it and let him know the next
day.
“When he called the next day, I
told him I was going. He asked if I
could get there by the end of the
next week. I told him I was leaving
on a plane the next day and would
be there Sunday.”
When Bradley arrived in Cambo
dia that Sunday, he was being fired
at upon arrival. He shot a series of
film and sent it back to the bureau
when the plane left that day. For the
next several weeks, Bradley had a
piece run in the States every day.
“It’s been said by others and I be
lieve that we had the best coverage
of Cambodia,” he said.
After being one of the last Ameri
cans evacuated from Indochina,
Bradley returned to the U.S. in
1975, and soon became the anchor
of “The CBS Sunday Night News.”
Since 1981, he has worked with “60
Minutes,” and has received three
Emmy awards for his coverage of
schizophrenia, convicted murderer
Jack Henry Abbott, and an interview
with Lena Horne.
Bradley said his interview with
“I
I was not enamored of
New York at the time. I was
trying to think of the worst
place in the world, and I
said, ‘New York? I’d rather
live in Vietnam than in New
York.’ He looked at me and
said, ‘Are you
volunteering?’ ”
— Ed Bradley
Lena Horne is his most memorable
piece.
“It was one of the best interviews
I’ve ever done,” he said. “I had read
all of her stories over the years — I
had read three books about her and
stacks of press releases, so I knew all
of the stories she told. But when I sat
down to talk to her, I started getting
stories I had never read.
“When we finished the interview,
there was someone in the room that
was a friend of Lena’s, and who had
known her for years. And she said, T
have known her for 25 years, and I
heard her talk about things tonight
that I never heard her talk about.’
Bradley said three components
have enabled his success.
“You have to have three things to
make it in this business,” he said.
“You have to have talent. That’s
something you’re born with, but it’s
something that you have to improve
and work on. And that leads to the
second quality, which is hard work.
“Hard work is the key to success.
And the third thing you have to have
is luck. And I find that the harder I
work, the better my luck gets.”
For the future of news, Bradley
sees a need for an increase in con
cern over the state of education in
the U.S.
“You people are the future of this
country,” he said. “And you need to
know about this country to survive.,
If you don’t know about the world
you’re competing in, how can you
compete?”
Bradley spoke on behalf of the
lecture series, “The Middle East:
Peace or Powder Keg,” which was
Wednesday. Bradley served as mod
erator for the debate.
