HELP WANTED
Three ways to
beat the high
cost of college.
1. The Montgomery Gl Bill
2. Student loan repayment
3. Part-time income
The Army Reserve Alternate
Training Program is a smart way to
pay for college.
First, if you qualify, the Mont
gomery GI Bill can provide you with
up to $6,920 for current college ex
penses or approved vo/tech training.
Second, if you have—or obtain—a
qualified student loan not in default,
you may get it paid off at the rate of
15% per year or $500, whichever is
greater, up to a maximum of $10,000.
Selected military skills can double that
maximum.
Third, you can earn part-time
money in college, and here’s how it
works: One summer you take Basic
Training, and the next summer you
receive skill training at an Army
school. You’ll earn over $1,500 for
Basic and even more for skill training.
Then you’ll attend monthly meetings
at an Army Reserve unit near your
college, usually one weekend a month
plus two weeks a year. You’ll be paid
over $105 a weekend to start. It’s
worth thinking about. Give us a call:

After earning his place in the
NCAA 500-victory club last
weekend, Texas A&M Head
Men’s Tennis Coach David
Kent, now prepares his team to
face Southwest Louisiana and
Tulane University on today and
tomorrow at the Omar Smith
Tennis Center.
The biggest worry at the be
ginning of the season for the
coach and the players was
maintaining consistency.
But they took care of that
problem very quickly by defeat
ing Southwest Texas and Tulsa
University on Feb. 23-24. Kent
said all the team has to do now
is expand on its 4-1 overall
record and use its winning
streak as a base for upcoming
matches.
“We have a lot of the same
players we had last year, but
now they are more mature and
have come through as leaders,”
Kent said. “This quality is defi
nitely helping us when it comes
down to competition time.”
With this in mind, it is no
wonder that the team is on a role.

Green guilty
in Jordan’s
father’s death
□ The sentencing of
the 21 -year-old will
begin on Monday.
LUMBERTON, N.C. (AP)
— An ex-convict was convicted
Thursday of murdering bas
ketball star Michael Jordan’s
father, who was shot during a
holdup as he awoke from a
nap along a dark highway in 1
his $40,000 luxury car.
Daniel Green, 21, could get
the death penalty for shooting
57-year-old James R. Jordan
in the chest in 1993.
According to testimony,
Green and his accomplice,
Larry Martin Demery, 20,
drove around in Jordan’s red
Lexus for
four days af
ter the slay
ing, picking
up dates,
and used
the dead
man’s cellu
lar phone to
call friends
and rela
tives.
Green
Jordan a ] so mac ie a
video of
himself dancing and rapping
while wearing Jordan’s jewel
ry — a watch and two NBA
rings given to him by his son.
Demery himself was the
prosecution’s star witness. He
pleaded guilty to murder be
fore testifying against Green
and also could get the death
penalty.
Defense witnesses had said
Green was watching television
at the time of Jordan’s slay
ing.The defendant, who
changed his name to Lord
D.A.A.S. U’Allah but was
called Green in court, did not
testify.
