Bryan. RWB organizers worked
making T-shirts Friday after
noon but needed more volun
teers.
“We put out the word on
TexAgs, on the radio, and an
announcement at midnight yell
practice,” Bethea said. “After
yell, at least another 50 people
showed up, and we just put them
to work printing shirts, and fold
ing and packing them.”
Shifts of volunteers worked
throughout the night, still pro
ducing shirts as sales began
early Saturday morning.
”We worked selling shirts
past kickoff, but when we final
ly got to the stadium and looked
up and saw the sea of red. white
and blue, we almost cried. It was
just amazing,” said Kourtney
Rogers, a RWB organizer and
junior parks and recreation sci
ence major.
Organizers say they would
like to produce more shirts to till
orders from A&M clubs
throughout the nation that have
expressed interest in buying the
T-shirts and plan to officially
write a check to the designated
charities by the end of the week.
“To see on the numbers on
the jumbotron, 70,000 shirts and
$150,000 raised for the families
of those policemen and fire
fighters, that made all the effort
worth it,” Pittman said. “Since
Sept. II, I've been asking
myself, ‘what can I do, how can
I help', and everyone who
organized this, everyone who
sold T-shirts and worked past
midnight to print shirts, every
one who bought a shirt or for

NEWS IN BRIEF
State fair plans security changes
DALLAS (AP) — New security measures will be
implemented at this year’s State Fair of Texas
because of the terrorist attacks in New York and
Washington.
Dallas police and fair officials declined to give
specifics about the security changes. However, State
Fair President Errol McKoy said the public will notice
the differences when the gates open Friday.
McKoy said that a review of security procedures is
done each year, but the Sept. 11 attacks prompted
officials to take a harder look.
“We’re pretty much reviewing everything from A to
Z,” McKoy said. “We will announce all of our
changes on Tuesday, and there will be a number of
things to announce.”
Fair officials will have a news conference Tuesday
to discuss security measures.
“I think they will be appreciated. They’re feel-good
changes,” McKoy said.
As in the past, fairgoers can count on seeing hand
held metal detectors during certain high-attendance
days. Also returning will be police officers on foot,
on bicycles, on horseback, in golf carts and in heli
copters, Dallas police Deputy Chief Mona Neill said.
Some Dallas residents planning to attend the fair
said they would welcome, or at least tolerate, extra
precautions.
Ellen Dorn said that she and her family come to
the fair every year and plan to attend this year. She
said additional security measures might be incon
venient, but necessary.
“I wouldn't like it, but I’d understand,” Dorn said.
“At least for right now. Maybe not forever.”
State fairs in other parts of the country say they,
too, have implemented new security measures.
In Oklahoma City, at the Oklahoma State Fair, offi
cials said they have moderately increased security.
