Police search
for burglars
of Circle K
Brazos County Crime Stoppers is
seeking information about a robbery
at a Circle K store in Bryan.
Police say two African-American
men entered a Circle K store in the
2800 block of north Texas Avenue
in Bryan around 3 a.m. on Tuesday,
April 17.
One man stayed near the front
counter, while the other confronted
the clerk in the back of the store.
Police said one of the men threat
ened the clerk with a metal pipe,
made him lie on the floor, and stole
his wallet and watch, while the other
emptied the register.
The men also grabbed a rack of
cigarettes, containing approximately
150 packs, and fled around the
north side of the building, according
to police reports.
A detailed description is available
for only one of the men. He is de
scribed as a 6-foot tall, 145-pound
African-American man in his 30s
with wiry Afro-style hair, a beard
and a gold tooth.
Bryan detectives report the sus
pects were familiar with the opera
tions of the store and that they prob
ably parked a vehicle on the north
side of the store.
This week the Bryan Police De
partment and Crime Stoppers needs
your help in identifying those re
sponsible for this robbery.
If you have information that
could be helpful, call Crime Stop
pers at 775-TIPS. When you call,
Crime Stoppers will assign you a
coded number to protect your iden
tity.
If your call leads to an arrest and
grand jury indictment, Crime Stop
pers will pay you up to $ 1,000 in
cash. Crime Stoppers also pays cash
for information on any felony crime
or the location of a wanted fugitive.

Two men bitten by Gulf sharks
ARANSAS PASS (AP) — One of two men bitten by
sharks in the Gulf of Mexico this weekend says he’ll fish
from a boat from now on.
Jimmy Allen, 18, of Aransas Pass, and an unidenti
fied surfer were bitten off of Mustang Island, but au
thorities said neither victim was seriously injured and
there is no cause for alarm.
Allen said a shark bit him in about seven feet of water
between two sandbars where he was fishing for
speckled trout about 1:30 p.m. Sunday near Port Aran
sas.
“I f H
I felt his skin rub against my leg before
he attacked me, so I guess I made him
mad. I felt the teeth, so then I knew what
was going on. By then, I was getting out
of there.”

“I felt his skin rub against my leg before he attacked
me, so I guess I made him mad,” Allen said Tuesday. “I
felt the teeth, so then J knew what was going oh. By
then, I was getting out of there.”
He didn’t see the shark, but said he recognized the
texture of shark skin from his experience shark fishing.
Allen said he swam for shore, about 50 yards away.
“When I got back to the beach, I didn’t know I was
cut, until I saw the blood,” Allen said.
He described his injuries as “sort of like razor blade
cuts” on a five-inch area of his right calf. They did not
require stitches, but he said he plans to have a tetanus
shot.

shark attack victim
Allen said he doesn’t intend to wade-fish any more.
“I’ll probably go out there in a little boat,” Allen said.
Tourism officials said no unusual reports of shark ac
tivity has been reported.
kes when you go out hunting,” said Lanette Nolle,
manager of the Port Aransas Tourist Bureau. “The
thing about it, everybody knows there’s sharks in the
water, and there are other things in the water. The
chances are so remote that you will be bitten by a shark
that we don’t put out any warning.”
McDonald’s serves lunch in school
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Usually,
the last place a high school principal
wants to find students at lunchtime
is hanging out at a fast food restau
rant.
But it’s OK at Holy Cross High
School, where the nearest McDon
ald’s is right on the property — a
first in the nation, the company says.
Like most ideas, the on-campus
McDonald’s was born of necessity.
Holy Cross wasn’t making any
money on its cafeteria. The fare —
surplus rice and cheese and canned
food — wasn’t making much head
way with the kids.
So a local McDonald’s franchisee
whose son attends the school pro
posed bringing Ronald McDonald to
the kids.
“At first I thought it was a crazy
idea,” said franchisee Richard Con
treras. “But the more I thought
about it, the more I thought I could
make it work.”
McDonald’s Holy Cross opened
Monday, staffed by McDonald’s em
ployees dressed in blue McDonald’s
uniforms and served in McDonald’s

Contreras said he was motivated
by word of the school’s financial
plight.
Principal Peter Mullett said school
trustees faced a $50,000 budget defi

“We just couldn’t afford to feed
the kids,” Mullett said. “Three or
four people in the kitchen cost more

Football woes
receive priority
over reforms
AUSTIN (AP) — School finance
reform and welfare funding didn't
get the same attention from many
lawmakers that tlie possible breakup
of the Southwest Conference has,
say advocates of social programs.
“I’m appalled,” said Mary Dees,
spokeswoman for the Texas Mental
Health Consumers.
She and other activists say law
makers have dragged their feet on
many issues, the Austin American-
Statesman reported Tuesday.
For example, it took three special
sessions for the Legislature to an
swer a Texas Supreme Court order
to change the public education fund
ing system. And the welfare budget
is so troubled that Medicaid pay
ments recently were suspended for
10 days.
But when the University of Texas
and Texas A&M University said they
were thinking about leaving the
SWC, many lawmakers quickly
huddled. Their response showed the
peculiar priorities in Texas, said
Dees and others.
“When we do this kind of thing;
we end up looking rather frivolous,
said Genevieve Hearon, past presi
dent of the Texas Alliance for the
Mentally Ill.
