I Carol Ziegler, district engineer for

Mans will be put on the shelf if the
bond proposal does not pass.
■ “If it doesn’t pass, we will see what
can be done in tne way of alternative
funding for the project,” Ziegler
said.
| Once passed, the Texas Highway
Commission in Austin would have to
approve the deal with College Sta
tion.
I Other improvements include:
l • $4.5 million for street and side
walk improvements. Welsh Avenue,
Rock Prairie Road and Marion Pugh
Drive would be extended, and Se-
besta and Krenek Tap roads would
be reconstructed.

sidewalks also would be built along
30 city streets. Traffic signal im
provements are included,
f • $2 million for the first phase of
the Wolf Pen Creek project which
includes an amphitheater, walkways,
a park, a lake, parking, plus other
features like fountains and piers.

rebel tanks on public roads.
The rebel tanks were rendered
juseless,” the local news agency No-
icias Argentinas reported.
| Earlier, hundreds of rebels were
forced out of a tank factory, an in
fantry base, several coast guard
buildings and another army installa
tion.
President Carlos Menem and
army chief Gen. Martin Bonnet re
used to negotiate with rebels who
demanded a shake-up of the high
command and a bigger military bud
get.
Menem, in his 16th month of
power, early Monday declared a na
tionwide state of siege that sus
pended constitutional guarantees
and gave him sweeping powers to
ensure public order. He threatened
to declare martial law, under which
rebels could be executed.
By 9 p.m., the last rebel strong
hold was army headquarters in
downtown Buenos Aires, two blocks
from Government House.
The planes attacked two tanks
moving along a highway in the capi
tal, and about a dozen traveling in
neighboring Entre Rios Province.
