'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 N A/Page \ ife editor s editor torts edit , fan 4iura, fng and )&'• s, John! jezada and !xam p en0 A&M Uni'* filkSi) Z um SchnitzeC !Haus Restaurant dr CCuB 218 N.

"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. JUST THE BEGINNING Russia Continued from Page 1 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. <S> Ja.»ov\ 6rovOr» /!

"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." -Marc Bertamini Ross Volunteers X.O.
