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 $7,124 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 $107 a weekend to start. It’s worth thinking about. Give us a call: (409) 764-0572 BE ALL YOU CAN BE? ARMY RESERVE Part/Full time - Sewing experience required.

Backers say they still want Perot on ballot Boenig Continued from Page 1 over,” she said. Boenig said the overwhelm ing support of family and friends makes the traumatic ex perience more bearable. He said the concern and care he receives is indicative of what the A&M community stands for. Boenig said that although he is frustrated by his inability to move, he knows his therapy will be successful and he will fully recover. “There’s no doubt in my mind that I’m going to be walk ing again,” Boenig said. Whether it’s four weeks or eight weeks, I’ll be there.” Get-well cards and letters should be addressed to: Toby Boenig P. O. Box 58 Gonzalez, TX 78629 LOS ANGELES (AP) — De spite Ross Perot’s expressed in difference towards another pres idential run, rank-and-file mem bers of his new Reform Party said Sunday the Dallas billion aire remains their first choice. But many of those attending the party’s first statewide con vention also expressed skepti cism over his ability to win. “We are looking to this party as a real chance for a vehicle for a presidential candidacy and to really build a strong party. Obvi ously that goes beyond one man,” said state Reform Party chairman Michael Ferris. And party leaders said at the conclusion of the two-day Cali fornia conference that getting the party on the ballot nation wide — rather than just the name of Perot as an individual — is proving a more daunting task than they had realized. Despite months of intense work, Perot’s party in one form or another is currently only on the ballot in 12 states: California, Ohio, Arkansas, North Dakota, Utah, South Carolina, Maine, Montana, Minnesota, Virginia, Ten nessee and South Dakota . But in two — Tennessee and South Dakota — he is listed as a “stand-in” because the party was unable to get itself on the ballot under its own banner. Overassignment Continued from Page 1 students, they should let all the best in [to the res idence halls]. Not everyone feels this would be the best way to fill the residence halls, including Steven Van Dysk, who was accepted as a student and given a permanent housing assignment for Fall 1996 through the regular program. “You can’t give up all the housing spots based on SAT scores,” Van Dysk said. “You have to di vide them up somehow.” Rydl said the reasoning for breaking up the housing spots in each admissions category is to give all incoming freshman an equal opportunity. Gary Englegau, executive director of Admis sions Counseling, said both sides have a point in Northgate Continued from Page 1 revitalization of Northgate. It deals with parking, traffic, land use, redevelopment guidelines and what funding is available.” Misconceptions about the re vitalization efforts have arisen over the past few months. Pavlinski said he wants the stu dents to be informed as to what is really occurring. “The biggest concern I’ve heard from students is that Northgate is going to be turned into a family area and all bars are going to be taken out,” Pavlinski said. “Basically that they’re going to lose Northgate and it’s not going to be what the early admissions argument, but noted the ap peal of off-campus housing. “We need to make freshmen realize how easy it is to live off campus just like it is on campus with things like the shuttle bussing system,” Englegau said. “Sure, freshmen would like to live on campus, but we need to alleviate that fear [of living off campus]. You’re not going to get to know everyone in your apartment, but you’re not going to get to know everyone in your dorm either.” Another frequent suggestion is to build more residence halls, a solution Rydl said is more com plex than it seems. She said the Residence Life and Housing Depart ment is currently completing a long-range study in order to determine future housing needs, and that many residence halls are also in need of repair. “Do we fix them first or build new buildings first?” Rydl said. “Either way, the students end up paying the price.” dents by preserving the district as a place that can be visited years after graduation.” One of the goals of the board is to establish an area where students and the community will feel comfortable spending time. Tom Williams, PTTS director and a member of the board, said he hopes the changes will in crease the number of people vis iting Northgate. “In years past, Northgate was College Station,” Williams said. “The first city hall was there. It was the city center until the city developed into shopping center mode. I think it serves a very valuable purpose. If housing can be developed that will generate foot and bicycle traffic, then it will be a really neat stopping off area from campus to home.” they know as Northgate. That’s not what’s going to happen.” Pavlinski said repairs are necessary in order to preserve Northgate. He said the infra structure is deteriorating and must be restored. Cheryl and Don Anz opened the Dixie Chicken on Northgate in 1974 with Don Canter. Cheryl Anz is also a member of the Re vitalization Board and said stu dents along with the community will benefit from the changes. “I would like to assure the students that the efforts in revi talizing Northgate will improve accessibility in parking,” Anz said. “That’s something that’s a problem now. The face-lift that’s proposed won’t affect the overall feel of a predominately student area. It would benefit the stu- nor june 3, m VKl m Bu machine don’t eve seem to *ork. Th Closing Continued from Page 1 music, and all of a sudden it’s gone.” Local bands are now waiting for another live venue to take Northgate Cafe’s place. Moaty said people should not worry because he is certain something else will open. “What I’m expecting is that someone is going to open Northgate soon,” Moaty said. “You have to have live music. Everyone knows live music gets the crowds. I support the local live music as much as I can. I never tried to get anyone from out of town. If you ask any of the bands, all of them started at Northgate.” Tohlen said even if someone does reopen the building, it will never be the same. “I’m sure someone will open it up, but it won’t be what it used to be,” Tohlen said. “Northgate was special because Ahmed didn’t care. He let bands just starting out play there. It was kind of like Austin’s Hole in the Wall. A new band could come there and get its start.” Willie Bennett, partner and general manager of 3rd Floor Cantina and the Dixie Theater, said he was disappointed to hear about the fate of North- gate Cafe. He does not know if he will be able to book the overflow of local bands. “I really hate seeing it closed,” Bennett said. “Right now, I’ve got all I can handle. I have a file cabinet with four drawers full of bands. There are so many bands out there that I don’t have time for them all. I’m doing the best that I can. I am going Student Continued from Page 1 not been specified. Koeck was told by friends who had seen pic tures of the accident that the cars looked as if they had been through a trash compactor. Koeck and Ibanez were friends in Company A together. Koeck said he has fond memories of the times he shared with Ibanez. to try to book some local bands.” When the Cow Hop closed at its South College Avenue location in April, Moaty saw an opportuni ty to bring an Aggie tradition back to Northgate. “After I took over the lease of the King of the Roadhouse, I was looking for a name for the place,” Moaty said. “It happened that Jim and Judy McGuire were closing down the Cow Hop. I read in The Battalion how that closing was the closing of an Aggie tradition. Everyone knows the Cow Hop.” Moaty said moving the Cow Hop back to its original location at Northgate will mean better business for the restaurant. “I think it will do better because this is the best location,” Moaty said. “It attracted families in the South College location but here it will attract school staff and students. It’s now across from campus and it’s a much shorter walk.” Moaty said moving the location from Northgate to South College took away from the tradition. “There is this mentality in town,” Moaty said. “People think even though they were doing well in the new location that it was a mistake to leave. It’s tradition. I have customers who left town for a few years, came back and couldn’t find the Cow Hop” For those who will miss Northgate Cafe’s food, Moaty has decided to feature Northgate’s subma rine-type sandwiches along with the Cow Hop’s hamburgers and french fries. Moaty said there will also be some live music at the restaurant. Sneaky Pete will perform on Thursdays and Fridays will be blues night. “We are going to get Sneaky Pete at the Cow Hop,” Moaty said. “He’s an Aggie tradition. He used to play at Northgate and we moved him with us.” Mrse ca "’ays tell that I’m J scold a stiff as tl 'ustrumc faults s Sest, tho They 1 fading i faulty L These a little cl Bush.

Koeck, the majority of their outfit and other Aggies were present at the ceremony. “The number of friends that visited this border town to honor Ibanez was impressive,” Koeck said.
