ras&s mmmmmmmmmumamm Page 8 The Battalion Tuesday, March 29, ] Businessman tells students to retain values Brenham By Eloise Flint The Battalion Drayton McLane, Jr., owner of the Houston As tros, said students should uphold and enforce val ues such as honesty, integrity and Christian princi ples when they make the transition from college to the work force. McLane’s speech was part of a series of speak ers and events taking place during Resurrection Week. McLane said when his family purchased the Houston Astros in 1992, they set forth the goal of maintaining those values. “Life is competitive, difficult and tough at times, ” McLane said. “Life is tough for the best of us, and values are what see us dirough the tough times.” McLane said one reason his family purchased the Astros was his realization that the Lord blessed them far beyond what they deserved. “This might be an unusual way to make a con tribution, but nothing uplifts people like a sport ing event,” McLane said. “Baseball players are paid based on statistics, but I tell them they are in the en tertainment business because if we don’t have 35,000 to 40,000 people at each game then we can t pay them." McLane is chairman of McLane Company, the world’s largest distributor of food products and general merchandise to convenience stores. McLane joined his father in the business with the agree- McLane ment to work under a few conditions. “I had to start on the night crew and work with them which taught me how to deal with other people,” McLane said. “He did it to teach me that I didn’t know as much as I thought.” McLane said students should start at the begin ning when they start a new career. vVith education and experience you can easily earn the respect of others and zoom your way up,” McLane said. “It taught me the value of working with people and recognizing the impor tance of what they do and the need to make them feel important.” McLane said students sometimes segment their lives into scholastics, personal affairs and religious behefs. “You think life is busy now while you’re in school, but when you get an occupation life is overwhelming and you’ll find Christian faidi to be very important,” McLane said. Steven Murray, president of Christian Business Fellowship, said McLane was chosen to speak be cause he upholds the principles that the group stands for. “We bring in people to talk about die role of Christianity in the workplace,” Murray said. “Sometimes people feel you have to check in your Christianity at the door, and we don’t beheve in that.” Dr. Stephen McDaniel, advisor of Resurrection Week, saia he is pleased widi student participation in the celebration. “The main focus is to call people’s attention to what Easter is really all about, ’ McDaniel said. Continued from Page 1 to reopen its salt dome near Bren ham and to expand the facility’s capacity. On April 7, 1992, an uncon trolled release of natural gas liq uids from the storage cavern re sulted in a series of explosions that killed three people, injured 2 1 and caused $9 million worth of dam ages. The explosions could be felt 1 2 0 miles away. An investigation into the explo sion said the cavern was too full and that safety equipment de signed to prevent natural gas liq uids from escaping didn’t work, according to Brian Schaible, a spokesman for the Railroad Com mission. A cloud of gas developed, which was ignited from an un known source, he said. “We do not believe were in violation our permit.” - Rick A’i Seminole spokesmi the At the time of the explosicl cavern contained 338,995tJ rels of natural gas liquids. In 19j| when Seminole’s application)| approved by the commission,:* company stated the cavern’s ca:J ity would be 150,000. "We do not believe we were I violation of our permit,” Neah; | Seminole has applied for pel mission to expand the storage; cility capacity up to one mill:; barrels. Seminole has stated i it doesn’t intend to store inti cavern more than 300,000bj rels at a time.
