Simpson Drill Field before the game. Tase Bailey, a senior aerospace engineering major and former Corps of Cadets commander, said the events gave him a chance to see his parents and get ready for the game. “My parents are here, there is good support, and this is a perfect time for our big weekend,” he said. “The atmosphere is friendly, and since A&M doesn’t have a homecoming weekend or any thing like that besides Bonfire, First Yell is a perfect way to get everyone together.” Continued from Page 1 applies to current employees who change jobs and move to different de partments or offices within the Uni versity. Before someone is eligible for pay roll, prospective employees affected by the law must present their Selec tive Service registration card, Potts said, or the University can contact the Selective Service database to confirm an employee’s status. A certificate of mailing can be ob tained from the Post Office and will be used as proof of application until an employee receives his registration card. Michele Henley, the coordinator for student employment at the Stu dent Financial Aid, said federal law already requires Selective Service reg istration in order to receive financial aid for college. Henley said there are over 13,400 student workers at Texas A&M including about 1,000 students in college work-study, but is unclear how many will be directly affected by the new policy.

McHam said he is not sure if Ags Over Texas will stay in busi ness, but he would not hesitate to use the company again.
