5-K race raises funds to fight cancer ft

participants show up that we had
to postpone the race by ten min
utes," Galindo said.
The run will begin and end at
the Aerofit Club and Activity Cen
ter. The run will start at 9:30 Sat
urday morning.
Kathy Langlotz, assistant man
ager of Aerofit, said Thomason
was an inspiration to everyone he
met.
"Bill was a friend to everybody
and he never met a stranger,"
Langlotz said. "If he was in a hur
ry, you never knew it."
In 1988, the first year of the
race, organizers were able to con

since September 1990, and we
plan to conclude in August 1996,"
Prescott said.
The campaign is somewhat
complicated, he added.
"Every college and every major
unit has its own dollar goal in the
campaign," Prescott said. "What
we have, in effect, is 15 or so mini
campaigns running under the
umbrella of the big campaign . . .
the campaign staff works closely
with every college to try to make
sure our efforts are coordinated."
The gala is an opportunity to
recognize present donors and po
tential donors. Campaign volun
teers will also be recognized.
"This is the first time, in a
large-scale way, we tried to get
volunteers signed up to help raise
the money," he said. "We feel it's
always more effective when vol
unteers are asking prospects for
funds, rather than staff mem
bers."
Prescott said he hopes the gala
will help make people aware of
the efforts of "Capturing the Spir
it" and make them comfortable
about making donations to the
University.
"Many people want to help
raise money for A&M but don't
know the first thing about going
about doing it," Prescott said.
cer Society. The amount has in
creased every year, and $2952 was
donated in 1991.
"We're hoping to set another
record this year," Galindo said.
The entry fee for students is $7,
and all who participate will re
ceive commemorative T-shirts.
Sponsors of the event have donat
ed over 75 door prizes, and win
ners will be drawn after the race.
The grand door prize is a round-
trip ticket to anywhere American
Eagle flies.
Galindo said the bulk of the
participants are students, but a va
riety of people participate.
"The area around Aerofit gets
packed with people," Galindo
said. "You find competition run
ners and families who participate
for fun and just want to donate
money to a good cause. We some
times have people bring strollers
and walk with their kids."
Galindo hopes the reason for
the race will not be overlooked.
"It's a lot of work, but we also
have a lot of fun," Galindo said.
"We want to maintain Bill's mem
ory, but there is also the challenge
to raise funds and to try to do bet
ter."
Langlotz also hopes the 5-K run
will continue to honor Thoma
son's memory.
"This race should encourage us
to take a few moments to mink
about our faith in humankind,"
Langlotz said. "This gives us the
opportunity to give back a littleof
what Bill gave to us."

Center sells meat products

holidays we sell a lot of cured
and smoked hams," Riley said.
However, the store does not
always sell as much lamb as Ri
ley would like it to.
"We usually don't sell as
much lamb as we produce, but
we do sell some to international
students and people from the
northeast, where lamb is a more
popular meat than it is in
Texas," he said. "Here in Texas,
if people are buying meat, it's
usually beef or pork."
Riley said visitors to the cen
ter ask him if most of the prod
ucts are sold to students, but
this is not the case.
"I think we are probably the
best kept secret on campus," he
said. "1 wish we sold to more
students."
While Riley believes the cen
ter offers competitively priced
merchandise, some prices will
fluctuate with market availabili
ty-
T-bone steaks generally cost
around $5 a pound while half-
f allons of ice cream range from
3.15 to $3.50, depending on the
flavor.
The center processes from
10,000 to 15,000 pounds of meat
a month, 90 percent of which is
sold at the retail store at the
front of the building, with the
other 10 percent being sold to
wholesale distributors.
The Rosenthal center oper
ates under an annual budget of
$500,000, which is usually about
the same amount of money the
meat and dairy sales operation
pulls in a year, Riley said.
"Some years we make more
than $500,000, and some years
we don't," he said.
Student receives Eppright Award

He admits to missing his family's
cooking back in India, but Natara-
jan said he has adapted to eating
American food.
"I have not eaten Indian food
in a long time," he said.
Natarajan also said he has
found the United States to be a
friendly place — not as dangerous
as its reputation abroad.
"People here are willing to help
tourists," he said.
Natarajan said he would like to
specialize in environmental engi'
neering and work for an interna'
tional foundation. He said univef
sities need to be more aware nl
other countries' cultures.
"I think multiculturalism isin 1 '
portant on any campus, but esp£'
cially at A&M," he said. "At the
conferences I have been to heft
they tend to focus on races in the
United States, and not on foreign'
ers. I have heard a speaker saji
'We don't bother about interna
tional cultures/ and I think that is
wrong."
