the sand volleyball courts are as
busy as they are in the spring,
although many choose to use
them later at night to avoid the
afternoon sun and heat.
If not currently enrolled in
either summer session, A&M
students who want access to the
Rec Center are presented with
the Continuing Student
Membership option, for a fee of
$39 per summer session.

expanding the weight room and
improving maintenance and
repair around the facility.
Construction on the outdoor
pool was *scheduled to begin in
early summer, but administra
tors at the Rec felt this was
unfair to students.
It will cost an estimated
$30,000 to delay the project but
Hall felt it was worth it for the
students, he said.
All those not able to use the
Rec Center throughout the sum
mer can begin using the facili
ties around Aug. 15.

Mixed-income housing
draws spotlight during
Bush trip to Atlanta
ATLANTA (AP) — When President Bush
praises the Villages at Carver on Monday,
one resident wants him to know that she
thinks the neat lawns, fresh paint and
secure buildings of the new mixed-income
community hide an injustice.
The Villages replaced a 990-unit housing
complex called Carver Homes as part of a
national push to repair troubled public
housing tenements.
For people who can afford the high rents,
all it takes to move in is an application. For
former Carver Homes tenants, the process

can be a lot more challenging, and that, 47-
year resident Louise Watley said, isn’t right.
"The poor aren't making it back. They're
only letting in seniors or people with
decent jobs," Watley said.
FBI referrals of terrorism
cases for prosecution up
six-fold since Sept. 11
WASHINGTON (AP) - The FBI has been
seeking prosecution of international terror
ism cases at six times the rate it did before
Sept. 11, but more than half of those cases
considered by federal prosecutors never
made it to court, Justice Department
records show.
In the year before the attacks on Me 1
York and Washington, FBI agents sent
international terrorism cases a month t
U.S. attorneys for prosecution, according
the records obtained by Syracu-
University's Transactional Records Acce
Clearinghouse (TRAC). In the first s
months after the attacks, they sent 59
month.
The records reflect the intense FBI w
on anti-terrorism investigations after Se:
11, but they also show prosecute
declined to file charges in 60 of
anti-terrorism cases they considered
last October through March. The prosec
tors did not reach a decision during
period on all of the more than 350 cast
referred to them.
