"We've heard numerous com
plaints of vendors yelling and al
most grabbing people," Busch
said. 'The Battalion ran a piece
calling the situation 'Harassic
Park.' I've even heard of students
completely avoiding the MSC be
cause of the vendors."
Keith Sunstrom, Concessions
Committee member and MSC ex
ecutive vice president of pro
gramming, said he had talked to
students about the proposal, and
most of them supported it be
cause they thought vendors were
an annoyance.
"They're obnoxious," he said.
"Students are tired of being yelled
at and having newspapers thrown
at them. It's like running the gaunt
let. You just put your head down,
and walk as fast as you can."
Kibler said moving the ven
dors to a centralized location
would also alleviate traffic prob
lems in the MSC.
"We want to take it off the beat
en path," Kibler said. "Setting up a
fair in a specific area of the Univer
sity Center Complex will give the
students a greater freedom of
choice. If you want to go you can; if
you don't, you don't have to."
Kibler said another advantage
of the fair is that A&M will assist
the vendors in advertising the
fair. Under the current system.
Vendors are responsible for their
own publicity.
He said the committee is con
sidering inviting institutions who
haven't been set up in the MSC in
previous years.
"We're looking at extending the
number of service companies invit
ed to the fair to include banks and
other financial institutions," Kibler

Located in the basement of the Memorial Student Center
said. "Also, we'd like to invite local
phone companies instead of just
long distance services."
The fair would be especially
convenient for Students who live
on campus and ones without cars,
he said.
Kibler said he expected the
proposal to be finalized and ap
proved at the committee's next
meeting Nov. 2. If the proposal is
approved, it will be implemented
before the spring semester.
"Everyone agrees it's a good
idea. It's just a matter of deciding
on some specifics of the propos
al," Kibler said.

Texas A&M Director of International Coordination Rhonda
Snider said the tour gives the dignitaries a feel for what A&M is all
about.
"I hope that they will take away with them a sense of the quality
of education that Texas A&M provides to its students," she said.
Likewise, Rose said, the Russians' visit will provide a unique op
portunity for the Bryan and College Station community to learn
about what is going on in Russia.
"The ultimate goal of Sister Cities is to promote peace and under
standing of peoples of the world," she said.

Ross Volunteers
Continued from Page 1
The Army has the most representatives in the
Ross Volunteers this year, followed by the Air
Force, the Navy/Marines and the Aggie Band.
"We look for guys with social grace," Berta-
mini said. "We look for guys who have
demonstrated leadership in the Corps and out
side of the Corps."
No female cadets were inducted into the
Ross Volunteers this year. Lechowick said
only two junior female cadets qualified for the
Ross Volunteers, and neither of them applied.
The Ross Volunteers play a major role in
two Aggie traditions - Silver Taps and Muster.
"We carry on the most important traditions
at this University," Bertamini said. "Whether
students realize it or not, a Ross Volunteer fir
ing squad will fire for them one day."
Lechowick said this is part of the Ross Vol
unteers that he likes to play down.
"It's an honor to represent those who
have died," Lechowick said. "It's not an
honor for us."
Lechowick said the Ross Volunteers sepa
rate into three platoons based On height
when they perform.
"The tall platoon is called the tree platoon,
the middle-height platoon is called the meat
balls platoon, and the short platoon is called
the squat platoon," Lechowick said.
Lechowick said each platoon has its own se
ries of drills they perform.
The Ross Volunteers perform in the King
Rex Mardi Gras Parade in New Orleans, the
Bryan-College Station Christmas Parade and
the Conroe Go Texan Parade.
"We carry on the most impor
tant traditions at this Univer
sity. Whether students realize
it or not, a Ross Volunteer fir
ing squad will fire for them
one day."
