and see this speech as important to their own
Plotkin said Thatcher's appearance at A&M is a
major event.
"How often does someone of her stature come
here? The chance to see Margaret Thatcher is a one
time shot at this university," she said.
Thatcher will respond to questions previously
submitted by audience members at the completion
of her speech.
Wiley members will choose what they believe are
the five best questions from the audience. The au-
/
thors of the selected questions will be given two
seats on the front row.
In 1983, after the MSC's first foreign policy
roundtable discussion, A&M graduates A.P. and
James Wiley decided to provide the MSC with an en
dowment that would help fund the lecture series.
The Wiley Lecture Series is open to all students
and accepts applications in the fall and spring se
mesters. Along with the annual spring program, the
organization sponsors smaller program symposiums
that focus on foreign policy issues.
To submit a question for Thatcher or for more in
formation about Friday's program, contact the MSC
Wiley Lecture Series at 845-1514. For ticket informa
tion, contact the MSC Box Office at 845-1234.

happy to carry the A&M medallion with him during
the shuttle mission.
"A&M is a well-recognized school and even while
at Purdue, I knew and heard about it," he said. "I
feel Purdue University is a mirror image to A&M,
because like A&M, Purdue is a land grant school and
is highly respected in agriculture, science, engineer
ing and other areas."
Although Scott thinks he would like to do some
thing like his father, who has already been on three
shuttle missions, he said space travel is really not for
him.
"Doing something like this is something you have
to have from day one, and this is not my life dream,"
he said. "It has always been my father's dream."
Jerry said the German-managed mission has sev
eral purposes and is expected to be completed over
nine to 10 days.
"We have experiments focusing on the environ
ment on earth and will try to map it in more detail
than we have now," he said. "Also, experiments fo
cusing on how human bodies, plants and small ani
mals are affected by microgravity (zero gravity) will
be conducted."
Experimenting on the space environment will
also be helpful in choosing building materials for fu
ture spacecraft, he said.
State courts
refuse to halt
execution
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HUNTSVILLE - Two stalf
courts Monday refused to bloc!
Texas officials from executing
Dominican Republic man aftei
midnight for killing a Houstonai
mored truck guard during a rol>
bery 12 years ago.
Carlos Santana, 40, was set fot
lethal injection early Tuesday fot
gunning down guard Oliver Flo
res during an unsuccessful at
tempt to rob the truck of somt
$1.1 million.
Santana contended thedeatho
his mother and loss of his jot
prompted him to get involve
the heist of the PurolatorAr
mored Inc. van outside a Houstot
department store April 21,1981.
A state judge in Houston and
the Texas Court of Criminal Ap
peals both refused Monday to hall
the execution, sending the matter
to the federal courts.
The U.S. Supreme Court la
week refused to review the case.
Santana's lawyers contended
jurors were not allowed toconsid
er that Santana had been abused
as a child and that he had lived in
great poverty.
They also contended jury in
structions were improper, his le
gal help was incompetent and
that he wasn't told at the time of
his arrest that he could contacts
Dominican Republic consulate.
Santana's case attracted the at
tention of government officials in
the Dominican Republic,
asked federal and Texas officials
to intervene and spare Santanas
life.
A New York-based Committee
to Save the Life of Carlos Santana
sent more than 500 cards and let
ters to Texas Gov. Ann Richards
asking the execution be stopped
Richards, however, has refused
similar attempts in previous death
penalty cases.
"There's a whole lot going
but maybe it's not enough," San
tana said in an interview last
week. "The courts seem to
more interested in expediting exe
cutions than in dispensing jus
tice."
Santana and an accomplice,
James Meanes, were arrested
shortly after the noontime rob
bery and shooting, convicted and
sentence^yto death. Meanes re
mains on aeath row although he
has no execution date.
Flores was walking from
truck to the department store
when he was killed with a single
shot that went through his arms
and body.
