Coca-Cola provides $5.2 million to A&M
By Kim McGuire
The Battalion
Endowments resulting from a
contract between Coca-Cola USA
and Texas A&M are helping boost
the budgets of several Texas A&M
University entities.
Robert Smith, vice president of
finance and administration, said
the University asked Coca-Cola
USA to provide $5.2 million for the
funding of seven endowments.
He said the money was de
posited last Friday and the differ
ent groups will begin drawing in
terest from the accounts at an esti
mated 6 percent interest rate.
The endowments were distrib
uted as follows: $1 million to Ster
ling C. Evans Library, $1 million
Library, Student Government among
entities to benefit from endowments
for minority scholarships,
$500,000 for scholarships for de
pendent children of support staff,
$500,000 for visual and perform
ing arts, $500,000 for athletics,
$300,000 for the Residence Hall
Association, and $200,000 for Stu
dent Government.
Student Body President Brian
Walker said the interest from the
$200,000 Student Government en
dowment will help fund pro
grams sponsored by about 30
committees operating under Stu
dent Government, and possibly
create new ones.

funds to programs operating un
der us," Walker said. "Many
times a program like Muster will
be funded by us and have to rely
on donations also. Hopefully,
this money will help some of
them become a little more self-
supportive so they won't have to
rely so much on donations."
Walker said Student Govern
ment was allocated $74,000 last
year. He said the optimum bud
get would be $103,000.
RHA President Chris Thomp
son said he would like to see the
interest from the $300,000 RHA be
used to fund new programs.
"RHA Casino Night inH(
spring is our biggest program,
Thompson said. "I'd like tost*
the money go toward establish
ing a similar program duringti
fall semester."
Thompson also suggestedth
money go toward setting upi
general hall improvement fund
"Maybe somewhere
down the road, we could setup
something like a hall improw
ment fund halls could borm
from if they wanted to starli
new project, and they didn't
have the necessary funds
Thompson said. "I know
southside dorms are interested
setting up a volleyball courtki
not all the dorms have the
ey. This kind of fund could
them out."

Lewis said Earle was a political
opponent of Hutchison's and is
prosecuting her for the U.S. Sen
ate job he wanted. He also said it
is a conflict of interest for Earle to
prosecute Hutchison because his
wife worked for Gov. Ann
Richards during the same time
Hutchison was state treasurer.
"Much is at stake for the De
mocrats," he said. "Richards,
Earle and Mauro (land commis
sioner) and all the other politi
cians in Austin have a big prob
lem with Hutchison at the top of
the ticket in 1994."
Lewis cited Hutchison's gar
nering of one of the largest
statewide votes in Texas history.
She won the Senate election in
June with 67 percent of the vote.
James said if one person can
claim politics in this situation, it is
Bob Krueger, Hutchison's oppo
nent in the June runoff election for
the Senate seat she now holds.
"Earle knew about this dur
ing the campaign and sat on it,"
James said. "He could have in
dicted Hutchison during the
election, but that is not his poli
cy. If she'd have been indicted,
he (Krueger) might have
U.S. senator.
"When Hutchison sapifspol-
itics, that's just silliness/' he said
Van 1 lightower said, "Ronnie
Earle doesn't play those games
He has taken on both Democrats
and Republicans."
Everyone agreed they would
like to know the outcome of the
trial before the deadline loan-
nounce candidacy for the 1991
Senate elections.
But, Lewis said, he doesn't ex
pect the trial to take place fora
long time because the judge inthe
case, a Democrat, will let it string
out as long as possible.
He questioned the entire legal
process involved in Hutchison's
indictment, saying that the
jury was not drawn at random but
appointed by the prosecution and
judge.
Lewis said 10 of the 12 jurors
were Democrats and the other two
didn't vote in the last primary
Van Hightower said it is easy
for those in political life to
themselves in trouble.
"There are gray areas in
roles of being a public official and
a political official. There is
tremendous pressure to raise
money, and short cuts are
by 99 percent of politicians."
