Juvenile Services awaits
A&M psychology intern
The Texas A&M clinical psycholo
gy faculty will select a student from
the advanced clinical psychology doc
toral program for a new internship at
the Juvenile Services of Brazos County.
Dr. Douglas Snyder, A&M profes
sor and director of clinical psychology
training, said the intern will gain pro
fessional experience while helping ju
veniles in need of counseling.
A representative from juvenile Ser

effectiveness and efficiency.
The internship will last from Sep

WACO, Texas (AP) — Abner V. Mc
Call, a 20-year president of Baylor Uni
versity and one-time Texas Supreme
Court justice, was remembered
Wednesday at a memorial service at
tended by 3,000 mourners.
McCall died Sunday at his home. He
was 80.
The university said McCall died of a
massive heart attack, one day after an
on-campus celebration of his 80th
birthday, which was June 8.
McCall left the presidency in 1981,
when he was named chancellor. He
took the position of president emeritus
in 1985, which he held until his death.

Gramm's 'favor' request
found in A&M papers
HOUSTON (AP) — Phil Gramm wrote
a letter in 1983 asking for a “personal fa
vor" that led to an Air Force member be
ing discharged a year early so he could
work for the U.S. senator, the Houston
Chronicle reported today in a copyright
story.
The November 1 983 letter written to
Verne Orr, the Secretary of the Air Force
at the time, requested a special discharge
for Airman John Weaver.
Gramm, who was then a member of
the U.S. House, wrote that he wanted
Weaver to help run his campaign to join
the Senate.
A copy of the letter, which was signed
by Gramm, also was sent to then-joint
Cniefs of Staff Chairman John W. Vessey.
The Chronicle found the letter this
week in a collection of Gramm's congres
sional papers in the archives of Texas
A&M University, where he used to teach.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Texas law
makers spent less time on foreign and
domestic jaunts last year.
Financial disclosure forms released
Wednesday for most of Congress' 535
House and Senate members showed
that travel - both domestic and overseas
— took a nosedive in the Texas congres
sional delegation last year.
Eight of the delegation's 32 mem
bers reported taking trips abroad at the
expense of special interests. Among
them were Reps. Solomon Ortiz, D-
Corpus Christi, who spent 19 days in
Taipei and another five in Mexico City;
and Sen. Phil Gramm, R-Texas, who
spent a week in Jerusalem.
Richards addresses idea of
women in Texas Rangers
Baylor's dental school
joins Texas A&M System
Gov. George W. Bush will hold a for
mal signing of House Bill 2495 Friday,
which makes the'fiaylor College of Den
tistry a part of the Texas A&M System.
Also attending the signing at the State
Capitol in Austin is Mary Nan West,
A&M's Board of Regents chairman; Dr.
Barry B. Thompson, A&M chancellor;
and Dominick P. DePaola, Baylor Col
lege of Dentistry president and dean.
The Texas Senate approved the bill in
May and acquisition of both schools will
take effect on Sept. 1, 1996.
AUSTIN (AP) — Former Gov. Ann
Richards said Wednesday the Texas
Rangers and women entering that elite
law enforcement group must come to "a
certain level of understanding" now that
the 103-member unit's all-male barriers
have come down.
One of the first two female Rangers
has filed a complaint with the state alleg
ing sexual harassment, discrimination, re
taliation and daily reminders that women
weren't welcome on the force.
“I think any time that any of us enter
into a sphere that has previously been all
male there is going to be a period of time
in which you have to make an adjust
ment on both sides," Richards said in an
interview with The Associated Press.
"Systems and a fashion of doing
things are not going to change overnight
simply because there is the presence of a
woman there" she said.

Joe Dowling, a senior me
chanical engineering major, said
he thinks that increased fees are
only logical, but believes the
University should not increase
fees so quickly.
“It’s a sign of the times,”
Dowling said. “As time goes on, I
guess you have to expect the
prices to rise. But I think they
should do it gradually, instead of
all at once.”
