iger of the

intentio;
believes it is important for the Health
Center to offer physical therapy as a ser
vice because most insurance companies
do not offer coverage for it.
Dr. Lucille Isdale, director of student
health services for the Health Center, said
employing Blume has given the Health
Center an opportunity to offer students
more options since she will be available
to serve them full time.
Blume said she encourages students
to take advantage of the services offered
by the Health Center because they are
paid for by student fees, so students are
not charged upon visitation of the center.
Blume said she believes the Health
Center exhibits a positive relationship
with the faculty and students at A&M,
and the center provides students with tal
ented physicians.
“Our goal is to get everyone back to
where they were before and back to what
they enjoy doing, safely,” Blume said.

“I’m for George W. Bush — he
fesents to me a new generation
Republican leaders, and 1 think
p Confereuft’s what the country needs in
fi I,” said Assemblyman Bill
onard of Rancho Cucamonga.
The petition was signed by 22
'32 Republicans in the state As-
mbly and three of 15 Republican
ators. They represent moder
ns and conservatives alike in the
gislature, and included all four
spanic Republicans,
fpieir petition was sent to Bush
12 dav of M 11 *
igroom
one day after he was sworn in for
a second term. Bush has not an
nounced whether he will run for
president, but some national polls
put him in front of all other com
ers.
The petition and the accompa
nying rhetoric represent a double
slap to California’s last Republican
governor, Pete Wilson, who is con
sidering a White House run him
self. Some Republicans believe
Wilson cost the party dearly by
fostering racial divisiveness with
his stands against aid to illegal im
migrants and against affirmative
action.
“I’m sure Governor Bush very
much appreciates their words of
support,” said Karen Hughes,
Bush’s director of communica
tions.
“He hopes they will understand
that he has not made a decision at
this point, but he is thinking very
seriously and intends to make an
informed decision. He appreciates
their input and their encourage
ment,” she said.
The petition was accompanied
by a note under the “California
Legislature” letterhead.
“With the California presiden
tial primary of March 2000 fast ap
proaching, it is important that a
credible candidate for president es
tablish a California presence,” the
letter read.
“We know that you are the Re
publican presidential candidate for
Texas, and we share a strong opin
ion that your qualities will serve
well as the Republican presidential
candidate for California.”
California has advanced its pri
mary to March 7, 2000, an early
date that could give the state more
clout in the nomination process
than ever before.
“George W. Bush has a record
of accomplishment as governor of
Texas on important issues like cut
ting taxes, ending social promotion
and teaching every child to read,
welfare reform, juvenile justice re
form and encouraging free trade,”
said Senate Republican Whip Ray
Haynes of Riverside.
Leonard added that California is
attempting to pattern its emerging
school standards after those in
Texas.
Bush has “shown unmatched
political leadership in his ability to
reach out and bridge the gap be
tween traditional and non-tradi-
tional Republican constituencies,
like Latinos — a growing and in
creasingly important population in
California,” added Assemblyman
Abel Maldonado, R-Santa Maria.
The Texas governor is the only
GOP presidential candidate, an
nounced or otherwise, who has
made a courtesy call to new As
sembly Republican leader Rod
Pacheco, who is Hispanic and who
signed the petition.
In the letter, the lawmakers pre
dicted Bush “will reach out to all.”
“I like Pete Wilson. I worked
with him for years,” Leonard said
in a telephone interview just after
the petition was faxed to Bush.
“Every thought which
enters our mind,
every word we utter,
every deed we perform
makes its impression
on the innermost fiber
of our being.”
