Call 845-2611 Page 8 The Battalion Thursday, October 5,1989 Flashback The following information was gathered from past issues of The Battalion and reflects activities that occurred during this week in A&M’s history. 10 years ago — Two Ford Pintos were added to the University Police Department. The Pintos were leased to replace the two scooters that UPD officers had used in the past. The economy cars were added because of their better maneuverability and their ability to get better gas mileage than the other three UPD cars, a Chevrolet Impala and two Ford LTDs. 25 years ago — Twenty-seven young women from Texas Women’s Col lege were selected to compete as semi-finalists in the 1964-1965 Ag gie Sweetheart competition. 50 years ago — About 6,000 scream ing cadets rallied around the A&M football team as the players boarded a train to the West Coast to meet the Santa Clara Broncos. Indigo Girls at A&M Saturday Bohemes unite — grab your beads and let down your hair for Saturday night’s appearance by Indigo Girls. The Atlanta-based duo of Amy Ray and Emily Saliers will be per forming in Deware Fieldhouse at 8 p.m. as a presentation of MSC Town Hall. The opening act has not been announced. General admission tickets are $5 at the MSC Box Office and Dillard’s. They will also be sold at the door. After an EP and an LP on their own Indigo label, Ray and Saliers signed with Epic Records this year and released their self-titled album. Indigo Girls: Amy Ray and Emily Saliers Enlisting the aid of members from REM and Hothouse Flow ers, Indigo Girls successfully ma nipulated their diverse visions and influences into a compelling mix of intimacy, spirituality and classic folk. The result has been a hot album, the hit single “Closer To Fine” and a warmly received tour that has somehow found its way to College Station. Saturday’s show should be a genuine highlight in an otherwise slow semester of live music. 75 years ago An article in The Bat talion stated that the days of hazing in the Corps of Cadets were believed to be coming to an end. Some upper classmen held the opinion that freshmen were rarely hazed. But the article also stated that A&M was still laboring under the weight of a repu tation for “rowdyism” among the ca dets. Dylan (Continued from page 6) Wanted”, is that Dylan’s voice finally matches the conviction of his lyrics, a quality abscent in his more recent work. Say you want it for free/ What was it you wanted/ Are you talking to me?” The real pleasure of both “Most of the Time” and “What Was It You But, overall, Dylan doesn’t live up to the quality of Lanois’ production. His voice is shot from years of exces siveness, and his lyrics have been re duced to weak regurgitations of reli gious allegory, political ambiguiiv. and personal vendetta. Lanois does his best to resurrect Dylan’s conviction, and he succeeds in strengthening his voice and sur rounding him with some first-class session men. But even so, Oh Mem fails where it should have succeed the most, and that’s bad news for Mr. Zimmerman. Live Music Information is provided by the individual nightclubs and is sub ject to change.
