The exper- ience was invaluable in teaching me the importance of light and shadows in achieving shapes. Later I was asked to illustrate a handbook of 1500 foraminifera. It is a reference used primarily by oil geologists for tiie identifi~at:i~n of strata. These drawings were done with pencil and stipple board to produce the same effects as the pen and ink ones stippled by hand, but were same quicker and much easier on my eyes. There have been other similar assignments, but of shorter durations. It was not until we moved to College Station that I had instruction in oil painting from E7rtialita Newton Terry, to wham I presented quite a challenge: to loosen up and forget my commitment to exactitude "You are working on a painting, not a photograph," I can hear her saying. During this era I participated actively in art shows and won a number of distinctions. More recently I have done same china painting, but my current enthusiasm is for watercolor. In addition to these experiences I have also participated in a number of local watercolor workshops.

Coulter, a producer of television commercials, is the son of the Frank Coulters of College Station. He undertook the direction of the play, written by Neil Cohen and "Joel Cohen, in his spare time. New York Times reviewer Richard F. Shepard says "`Friends Too Numerous to Mention' may not be the most memorable of plays, but it is more than a mere situation-comedy. It is a light and funny theatrical interlude. "What could have been tragedy...has been made Into high comedy with sharp insights into human behavior abetted by good, snappy lines, afast- moving production and a cast that throws itself joyously into the action. "Under Allen Coulter's direction, the seven characters declaim to one another with broad humor, proving that sincerity is a hypocritical mat- ter that depends on where one is situated." Frank says that the play was done a year ago as a reading .production. He adds that Allen, who says that the actors are coming along, has had a wonder- ful time directing the production.

Daisa, who died Tuesday at the age of 76, was one of the founders of StageCenter and Brazos Valley TROUPE. She directed numerous plays, specializ- ing in murder mysteries. "I like blood," she once said. And she acted in many productions, most memo- rably as the cantankerous Jewish widow in Driving Miss Daisy. She teamed with Harold Presley (as Hoke) for the Pulitzer Prize winning drama at StageCenter in 1990 and for TROUPE in 1997. Daisa gave M.A. Sterling, artistic director of TROUPE, his first exposure to community theater when the Texas A&M Theater Arts program could- n't keep him busy. She cast Sterling in plays and supported the musical revues that would become his hallmark. When Sterling outgrew StageCenter, Daisa helped him start TROUPE. "Wanda was more than just a director, actress or arts leader," Sterling said. "She was one of the most From A7 unique and original people I have ever known. Anything and everything good that hap- pens for TROUPE stems from the leadership, commitment, dedication and love that Wanda lavished on us." Charles Pitman, a veteran actor in Brazos Valley commu- nity theater, has many memo- ries of Daisa. "She was terrific to work with," he said. "She always knew exactly what she wanted and how to get the best per- formance from her actors. She and I had a difference of opin- ion on how I should play Mike in Wait Until Dark. Finally, she pulled rank and told me to do it her way because she was the director and I was the actor. I did it her way, and it turned out fine." llaisa died at Sheridan Nurs- ing Home. Visitation will be at 5 p.m. Thursday at Hillier Funeral Home, with services at 11 a.m. Friday. Burial will be at Bryan City Cemetery. ~ _See DAISA, Page A11 man a Daiisa 1929 ~ 2006 Wanda Daisa, age 76 of Bryan passed away Tuesday, November 14, 2006 at the Sheridan of Bryan..

I have known Judge Ellis for 20 years. I served with him in the Army Reserves for about 10 years. He is a person of integrity and is respected for his professional con- duct in the courtroom. I am in the rental property business, and it has been necessary for me or one of our managers to present numerous cases related to our business to Judge Ellis' court. I have found that Judge Ellis conducts himself in a professional manner at all times and is in total control of the court- room. He is firm but fair to both I have experienced decisions from Judge Ellis that did not favor my position and some that did. We have found that Judge Ellis requires substantial evidence to back your case in order to make a fair decision. He will not consider a case that does not come under the law or is frivolous in nature. I feel those who write negative -~ remarks about Judge Ellis are "sour grape" types who did not get a ruling in their favor and have lit- tle respect for others' rights. These types reflect the attitude of Ellis' challenger, Mike McCleary, who evidently has little respect for the private property rights of oth- ers. McCleary has placed his cam- paign signs on two different proper- ties that I own without my permis- If McCleary's actions and attitude reflect integrity, then I am using the wrong dictionary.

EDSEL JONES College Station LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Let's move railroad tracks., j, . , ~,. ~ , ~ r''., It is°time~o rethirik~I,oTrak~= a ~etfer solution warrants investigation if we are thinking and planning long range. I worked for the passing of LoTrak in the bond election. I have continued to work since the failure of the election, talk- ing to land owners about donating the right-of-way for the project. However, some people believe we should look at re- locatingthe rail in the FM 2818 corridor. When we think of the future of this community, we have to think of two new, important events. The first is the Bush Library and its construction on Bush Drive near FM 2818, and the economic impact that the library will have on our community. The second fs the coming of high speed rail to Texas. We must have this service come through College Station to complement the Bush Library and to serve its estimated 500,000 visitors. Imagine rail service lines in the middle of FM 2818, as they are along MOPAC in Austin -two lines for high speed rall and one for freight. The rail along MOPAC is hazdly noticeable, due to the concrete re- taining walls between rail and vehicle traffic. The cost of the relocation project is fea- sible when compared to the high costs associated with LoTrak, including con- crete retainer wall construction, the relo- cation and redesiisn of utility lines, the extensive drainage system required and the extensive amount of eazth to be re- moved. Since these costs would not be associated with relocation, they would go a long way toward meeting the cost of moving the raft. The Texas A&M pedestrian mall grade separation would still be necessary, rede- signed to include vehicle traffic flow. Grade separations at George Bush Drive and to the south would not be neazly as important with the rail lines gone. The following additional advantages of relocation should be acknowledged: ^ No right-of-way cost to College Sta- tion. ^ College Station, Texas A&M and Bryan would gain an additional 100 feet of right-of-way when the railroad is moved, which would provide for the de- velopment of a north-south traffic corri- dor through the community. Speeds could be controlled by synchronizing traf- fic signals for an even flow of traffic at a desired speed. ^ The extra right-of-way would make possible construction of a frontage road near Kyle Field. LoTrak does not provide for direct and safe access to Kyle Field and the adjacent parking, only an exit ramp to Joe Routt Boulevard. ^ The disruption of trafTlc during relo- cation would be minimal as compazed to the massive construction activity neces- sary for LoTrak. ^ The proposed federally-funded multi-modal transportation facility could be located near FM 60 and FM 2818 to provide for a central transportation center to include rail, bus and air service. This location would best serve the com- munity, the Bush Library, the Reseazch Pazk and Texas A&M. There are engineers closely associated with the LoTrak project who give cre- dence to the idea that realignment of the rail along FM 2818 would compare favorably to the construction cost of Lo- Trak. If it is time to rethink LoTrak, why is it not thinkable to reinvestigate reloca- tion? EDSEL G. JONES College Station October 11, 1914 -April 23, 2005 _' Georgia Belle devoted to her family.

Sid Lovef ass hel ed p man oun eo le t~~ y. y ~ .~~. g~, p p oithtless young boys atnd girls in Brazos ~ounty learned how to shoot guns from Col. Sid Loveless. They learned that shooting was more than aiming and pulling the trigger. Before they even were allowed to pick up a rifle, they had to attend his mandatory safety lectures. By the time they were ready to move to the target range, the children were thoroughly familiar with the dos and don'ts of gun safety. As those children grew into adults, they carried with them the important lessons Loveless taught them about guns and about life. Sidney Louis Loveless Sr. died Sunday at the age of 86, and this community lost a great friend and a great advocate of young people. Funeral services will be at 2 p.m. Tuesday at Memorial Funeral Chapel in College Station. A native of Hill County, Loveless moved to College Station in 1934. He earned his bachelor's degree in dairy science from Texas A&M University and became College Station's first city secretary in 1939. Loveless served in the Army during World War II and later retired as a colonel in the Army Reserves. He sold insurance for American General Life Insurance Co., retiring in 1979 as the company's district manager. Along the way, Loveless was named College Station's Man of the Year in 1952 and the College Station Kiwanis' outstand- ing citizen in 1961. In 1977, he received the Daughters of the American Revolution Medal of Honor. All that speaks highly of the man, but Loveless' greatest gift to his community was his work with young people. For 16 years, he served as a Boy Scout leader in College Station. In 1947, he started Pleasant Acres as a playground for his four children and others in the community. When a niece died from an accidental gunshot wound in 1954, Loveless began teaching gun safety classes at Pleasant Acres. Later, he added riding classes for area children. He founded You, Tomorrow Inc., a nonprofit educational organi- zation to teach gun safety, horse riding and outdoor skills. He served as president of You, Tomorrow until 1993. Col. Loveless also had a deep and abiding sense o~Pristory and of the greatness that is America. He made sure that the children he taught to shoot or ride also received a healthy dose of patriotism. In short, Sid Loveless helped many young people grow and develop into fine adults. The lessons and life skills he taught them have remained to this day. Memorials to Col. Loveless may be made to the Fellowship International Mission, 555 South 24th Street, Allentown, Pa. 18104-6666. And if you really want to honor him, get involved in the life of a child. Help him or her grow into a productive adult, just as Sid Loveless helped so many local children over the years.

After several years, he left Tide and joined Texas Farm Products (Lone Star Feed & Fertilizer) as a regional sales representative and there he. remained untIl his retirement in 1989.

When he was not deep-sea fishing for snapper uid shark in the Gulf of Mexico, he could be found in search of striper bass in Lake Whitney, near Waco, Texas. He was exceedingly proud of a rustic cabin he, alone, hand-constructed upon a panoramic ridge along the lake; property that had been held by lus maternal side of the family since the late 1800s.

Born and reared locally, Tommy was baptized and confirmed at Bethel Lutheran Church. While a student at A&M Consolidated High School, he began working at Sterling Evans Library and remained on staff while earning his Bachelor of Arts in History/ English and his Master of Arts in History at Texas A&M. He completed his formal education with a Master of Library Science at The University of Texas-Austin and later joined the library faculty at Texas A&M. Tommy left our community only to study at UT and for vacations within the United States and Europe, but his reading of history guided him in exploring both place and time. Although Tommy was a quiet and intensely private person, those closest to him know that he could brighten any moment with a bit of movie trivia or with a delightfully irreverent observation of world leaders-past or present. During his three-year and eight-month illness, Tomm found ref_ u;;e in the unf ring devotion of his parent Horace and Florene Huff Schaffe nd brother, John Schaffer-all of College tation. Other survivors include his sister-in-law, Cheryl Clements; his niece, Marlene Michael Schaffer; several uncles, aunts, and cousins; and patrons of the library to whom; he committed 30 years of his life. ~ Memorials in Tommy's name are welcome 1 II 1 t. at Beth.,.'Lutheran Church (Building Fund) g'"""`°``y and Hospice Brazos Valley.

The Millican resident also said he would like to see com- missioners' salaries reduced and more money allocated to the sheriff and road and bridge departments. He said he believes the county judge's salary should be about $2,000 a month, and commissioners, who current- ly receive $53,144 a year, should be paid $1,00(1 per month. That money, he said, could help the two depart- ments that need it the most.

He hopes to never have another, because that one jump landed him in a German POW camp. Brusse was born in Brenham on April 7, 1921. At .age six his father died and his family moved to the home of his grandfather, J.S. Giddings in Brenham. "I gfaduated from Brenham High in 1938 and attended Blinn for two years and then enrolled at A&M for one year before joining one the of the WPA education technology programs," he recalls. "I enrolled in an aircraft maintenance program at Meacham Field in Fort Worth and then joined the Army Air Corps Cadet program in May 1942. I went into the ready reserve and started the cadet program at Lackland Field in San Antonio. "During my time in the cadet program, I was married and then sent to the pre-flight program at Ellington Field in• Houston. At Ellington I was designated to be a navigator and was sent to Harlingen for gunnery school. A navigator on a B-17 also had to fire two .50- caliberguns. Ithen went to Hondo, Texas, for navigator training and in December 1943, I was commissioned as a second lieutenant. I was now an officer and a gentleman, by act of Congress. "We reported to Ardmore, Oklahoma, to assemble our B-17 crew, which included four officers and six enlisted men. In March 1944 we were sent to Grand Isle, Nebraska, to pick up our brand new B-17. When we got there, the plane was frozen to the ramp..Once we thawed it loose we loaded up and headed to Ireland by way of Iceland..We were told to not open our orders until we were airborne. The orders said we were going to England, but we had pretty much figured that out before we left. "We became part of the 457th Bomber Groups H, 749th Squadron of the Eighth Air Force stationed Germany, we ran into such a barrage. It knocked out our numbers one and two engines, which caused us to roll into an inverted dive. Our pilot, Roy Allen, finally pulled us out at 5,000 feet. Once you fall out of formation, the German fighters would gang up on a crippled plane. I knew from a weather briefing before we left that we would have cloud cover to the north. If we could get there before they got to us, we could possibly hide in the clouds. "We made it to the cloud.cover and every time we would peek out, there were German fighters waiting. They could not come into the clouds after us because they were afraid of running into us. When we broke out of the cloud cover, we were over a bay just north of the coast of Holland. To avoid their anti-aircraft guns, we flew just above the water. We flew out through the mouth of the bay, them shooting at us and us shooting at them. I don't think we hit them and they miraculously didn't hit us. We had made it out to the North Sea. "We dropped our bombs in the North Sea and headed for England. We were met by two British Mosquitoes, fighter bombers, who escorted us in. The only problem was that when we attempted to land, only one wheel would come down. One-wheel landings were the most dangerous thing you could do with a plane. It usually meant that you would cartwheel, break a wing and end up in a ball of fire on the ground. "Needless to say, we were on needles .and pins for the landing. We landed safely with no one hurt, which was amazing. Up until then we had only one of our gunners hit with flak in his hand. I found it amazing at the number of holes you could collect in a plane and it still fly. We were just lucky, I guess. "We were able to continue as a crew and were able to participate in the D-Day invasion.

As if that was not enough to ake a man's world take notice, She x herself a job. And, j ust when they ought it was safe to let her attend .e board meeting, there She was, tong at the head of the table. Now, a week has been devoted to le women who made i[ [o that board leeting or made their way into a usiness or profession where omen years ago would have been This week is National Business and Professional Women's Week. "I think we've come a long way but we still have a long way to go," said Lori Elznic-Hemmestad, president of Bryan-College Station's Busi- ness and Professional Women's Club. The BPW was formed in 1919 to help women take advantage of op- portunitiesthat were open to them. It also encourages women to seek higher education and become part of the work force. "Our club has mainly let women know that we are here to support them," Elznic-Hemmestad said. "Otu club members range from women who own their own busi- nesses to secretaries." Elznic-Hemmestad also said that the club's goal is to "promote full participation in the workplace, eq- uity and economic self-sufficiency for America's working women." Though self-sufficiency plays a key role in getting women into the work force, the challenge of pursu- ing acareer that accompanies one's talents can also be a major drive. "I think that women arc finally feeling freedom to seek careers and occupations that fulfill them as human beings," said College Station's Public Information Officer P~gy Calliham. "Their seeking more education and learning that they don't have to limitthemselves." Calliham has been involved in ~profc~;.~ic~ns for 13 years. In all her years, she went from teaching to public relations to incorporating skills acquired from both into her present job with the city government. "I was teaching at school but, being a single parent, I needed to make a living because teaching didn't pay much," Calliham said. She set out to get her masters in Education Adm ini- stration with an emphasis on public relations and hopes of getting into ~ school relations. Later, an opening at ~ the College Station Community Center for someone having experi- ence in public relations came about and Calliham was the woman to fill it. She worked at the Community Center for four years in public rela- tions which brought b~~h school and government togui:k:,.. At the end of four years, she felt a desire to broaden hcrresponsibilities within the city. She told then City Manager King Cole, that if he had intentions of boosting up the public information division, she would be available. A year later, he did. "Basically, I planted the seeds," Calliham said. "I saw a need and felt I had the capabilities of fulfilling it. So, I was able to create a job." A workday in the life of Calliham consists of performing various tasks .from publishing newsletters to writ- ing news releases to attending a number of meetings. "Anything that dea the public know," Ca) spend a lot of timeu know what's happenir, form the community."

(,~, OLLEGE STATION xy Northgate visit -and tell 'erne Peggy . sent ou _ y 1`~`~ ,. . ~. All communities, in the name of progress, occasionally cause temporary disruptions and inconveniences for citi- zens and businesses in order to improve the infrastructure. On a personal basis, r most of us have experienced this type of interruption when we had to take time from our regular schedules to have some treatment or surgery we have been putting off for too long. Since the Northgate Business District is the oldest commercial area in College ~` Station, it too has reached the time when ;~ some reconstructive surgery is r-eeded. + Ground was broken on the College Main a=Y..-reconstruction project on May 30. The 4 section of street between University and ~ Church Street is targeted to open back up to traffic by Aug. 1. During this recon- ? : struction, the businesses in the College ' Main section of Northgate have been ., especially inconvenienced and disrupted. Even though pedestrian access has remained open throughout the area, some of the regular patrons have been PEGGY CALLIHAM Spokeswoman ~ ~;, + discouraged just by the sight of construe- ; tion. The city of College Station has tried ~' to make this process as swift and painless `r ; as possible, but business has naturally waned temporarily due to the construc- tion. I visited with many of the merchants this week and we discussed their con- ~ terns and a couple of things about Northgate that perhaps the general pub- 1..;: 1;., .ti.i h+ rent lrnnxx~ First of all it is one of the few, if not the only, areas in College Station in ! ; ~; which all of the businesses are owned ,` and oper. ated by local residents of our community. They are not sending their revenue to o : ~, corporate offices in other cities or states. ~ --;, It stays right here in College Station and e Brazos County. The area provides the ~- -sole means of livelihood for 35-50 people. Secondly, four of the present busi- nesses have been there for at least 50 years: Holick's Bootmakers has been in business in Northgate since 1914; ~ Loupot's Bookstore since 1934 and ~ Northgate Barbershop and Aggieland + Cleaners since 1935. In this day and time that is a real record. + I can remember playing in and out of all these stores and up and down the side- ; walks of Northgate when I was a child. My daddy ran a bus station and taxi there back in the late 1940s. Even then it pro- ; vided almost everything a Texas A&M student needed. The city of College Station staff would like to encourage local residents to make a little extra effort to visit the Northgate merchants, let them tell you about the revitalization project and plans for the future, and give them a little help by patronizing their businesses. It is really not that hard to park if you know where to go. Take University Drive to Boyett Street, beside the old i Campus Theatre (now Shadow Canyon) and then take a right on Patricia Street. You can park free in the parking lot behind the Dixie Chicken and Duddley's Draw. In fact, if you are a new student in town it is still one of the few places you can take care of many of your personal needs. You can have your film developed at Campus Photo, your boots repaired at Holick's, take your cleaning over to Aggie C1Qaner's, buy those school books at Loupot's, and have your hair cut at the Northgate Barber Shop. Oh yeah, and if you are into music, Northgate claims to be the CD capital of <; Bryan-College Station with Marooned ° and Disc Go Round. Dead Lazlo's Coffee Pub (named from a Laverne and Shirley episode) has some great coffee and desserts, too. But I think they are closing during July, so maybe you could stop by Sweet Eugene's, owned by the same peo- ple, located just off of Kyle South. There are other businesses that can meet many of your personal needs, too. They include the Software Exchange, Sarge's Military Surplus, Lacey's Sterling and Silver, The Factory and Trade Winds Bead Company. You might ask all of them about their "Construction Specials" and I think they will give you a great deal. Who knows, you may fmd the kind of local merchant and friend that gives you the type of per- sonal service you expect. Oh yeah, and tell them Peggy sent you. ~: Peggy Calliham is College Station's spokeswoman. •I • Area women rewarded for vision with Leadersh i p ~~~~~ ~~By KATY HALL Eagle staff writer Jeanette Phariss wants to do her part to help the citizens of Texas move for- ward into the 21st century.

Guest -businessman, civic leader, friend, and mentor -died Saturday (Aug. 20, 2005) at home surrounded by family after an illness. He was 81. As news of his death rippled through the commu- nity, friends paused to remember his devotion to Bryan and his beloved family. They recalled Mr. Guest as a man with a strong voice, strong hand- shake and strong advice. Mr. Guest was born November 18, 1923 in Strawn, Texas, where he grew up. He served in the Marines in World War II, married Jenna V. Reeves August 24, 1946 and graduated cum laude from Texas A&I College in 1948. After serving as Assistant Audi- tor for the State of Texas and Texas A&M College, he became the Auditor for the Texas A&M Svstem. In 1956 he founded American Coin Meter Ca•poration and remained co- owner until its sale in 1969. In 1970 he joined Bryan Building & Loan Association, later known as Brazos Savings Association as Chief Executive Otricer and Chairman of the Board of Directors and remained there until it was sold in 1983. Thereafter he served as a financial consultant to savings and loan associations and became Chief Executive Officer and Chairn~an of the Board of Directors of Unitedbank, College Sta- tion, N.A. and United Citizens Bank from 1985 until 1991. Outside his family he is perhaps best known for his community service and love of politics. After serving as Campaign Manager for Dolph Briscoe's success- ful Governor's race in 1972, he served as Chairn~an of the Democratic Party of Texas from 1972 until 1978. During that time he was Co-Chairman of the Carter/Mondale Campaign in 1976; President of the Texas Association of School Boards from 1971 until 1972; and President of the Southern Region School Board Association ti•om 1970 until 1972. He served as Director of the National School Board Association from 1970 until 1973. He was a memher of the Texas Teachers Associatio^ for Professional Consultation from 1969 until 1972 and served as a member of the Commission for Certification of Texas School Administrators and the Brazos County Industrial Foundation frum 1972 until 1975. But his accomplishments in business and politics seemed secondary to his heartfelt comtnitment to bet- ter the lives of others. Many remember his service as a Trustee of Bryan Public Schools from 1965 until 1975 and his being President of the Board of T~~ustees from 1967 until 1970. These were specialtimes in the South and in Bryan. During this period a bond elec- tion was called and passed and a new high school was funded and constructed. The creation of Bryan High School and the selection of the Viking mascot were surpassed only by the successful integration of Bryan Schools without incident during this period. Mr. Guest had an extraordinary ability to relate to people from all walks of life with genuine compassion and interest. Whether he was talking to a young person or the president of the United States, Mr. Guest listened and he cared. He remained loyal to his alma mater, serving as Director of the Ex-Students Association, Texas A&I College from 1973 until 1974. He was the recipient of the Texas A&1 University and The Alumni Associa- tion, Texas A&I University Public Affairs Award in 1978. ,. • In 1977 he became Chairman, Joint Advisory Committee on Texas Gov- ernmental Operation and returned to politics in 1984 as Co-Chairman of the Mondale/Ferraro Presidential cam- paign. Mr. Guest was a Commissioner of the Texas Department of Public Safety from ]985 until 1992 and named an Honorary Captain of the Texas Rangers in 1992. He served as a member of the Texas A&M University College of Medicine Advisory Coun- cil from 1990 until 1994 and of the Scott & White/Texas A&M University Medical School Liaison Committee from 1992 until 1994. In his later years, Mr. Guest poured his energies into charitable work for academic institu- tions. His deeply felt optimism was at the core of his beliefs. Bolh idealistic and pragmatic, Mr. Guest embodied the small-town values and Horatio Alger- like spirit of early 20th-century America. Neverthe- less, he ventured into the spotlight only when neces- sary, prefen•ing to work behind the scenes. Many of those who knew Mr. Guest considered him a mentor and an inspiration. He never stopped giving counsel to new generations of political and business leaders. Even to children, Mr. Guest upheld his reputation for shaight talk. You always knew where he stood. You might not fully agree, but you knew where he stood. More important to Mr. Guest_ however, was his servant leadership as a Deacon of First Baptist Church of Bryan where for many years he was a men's Sunday School Teacher.

The couple returned to Texas in 1978, moving in 1983 to Austin, where they raised their daugh- ters Diann and Mary Evelyn. Jerry's family was the center of his life. He and Ann were true soul mates, who looked forward to celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary this summer. He was a proud and devoted father, unconditional in his love. As a grandparent, Jerry was in his ele- ment. His grandchildren, Emily and Dylan, blossomed in the nur- turingattention hegave to their lives, just as he thrived in caring for them.

To that list must be added Judson E. Loupot. For 60 years and more, Ol' Army Lou and A&M have been synony- mous. A native of Hallettsville, Loupot came to College Station iri 1928 as an Aggie freshman. When he graduated four years later, he couldn't bear to leave the school he loved so much, so he stayed on, becoming one of the most well-known residents of the fledgling College Station. Of course, there was the public Loupot, well-known for his three bookstores scattered around the perimeter of the A&M campus. Long College Station landmarks, the stores sold everything from text- books to test supplies, from Aggie T- shirts to bumper stickers and every- thing in between. The only criteria was that it be maroon, rumored by generations of Aggies to be the color of Loupot's blood. But it was the private Loupot who endeared himself to the Aggies over the years. No student ever had to go hungry or sleep out on the street if he didn't have the money for food or rent. None had to do without the required textbooks if money was too tight. All it took was a quiet visit with Judson Loupot and help was given. Loupot never made a big deal about helping the students; that wasn't his way. But thousands of students have been able to complete their studies at A&M thanks to his generous assistance. Loupot died Saturday and is being buried today, but his legacy will continue through the Ol' Army Lou Student Assistance Program. Donations to continue Loupot's phil- anthropic efforts on behalf of his beloved Aggies may be sent to the program in care of the Ag Development Office, Room 113, Administration Building, College Station 77843-2142.

Mike's lifelong friend, Scott Johnson, stood in Sean's place as Mike exchanged vows with tr~ former Joella South. According to cub reporter `JVes Thomas, it was a beautiful wedding, as Mike and Joella not only promised to love and cherish each other for the rest of their lives, but Mike also provided rings and made vows to Joella's two sons, Jacob and Joshua, t4 be the best stepdad he can possibly be and to always provide for them. Then, the guests at the wedding reception just had to wait, as Mike and his new bride rushed to St. Joseph Hospital to greet their new niece for the first time. It was only after.

PAGE 28 Jan. 30 to Feb. 5, 2000 Keep the fire station he fire station on Rio Grande Street stands in the midst of the most densely populated area of College Station and it will be closed soon if citizens do not protest by writing and calling the mayor, City Council and City Manager Skip Noe. It is the city's duty to provide basic necessities like police and fire protection for its citizens. In a shortsighted move to save money, the city will close a station that has already been paid for and tell us that adding a station on the west side will compensate for the closure. The decision to close the Rio Grande station when the west side station is built was made by a 1991 City Council based on the future needs of the fire department as determined in that year. Since then, according to the Bryan-College Station Chamber of Commerce, College Station has seen a 14.75 percent increase in population - certainly enough to warrant a fourth station. The citizens on the east side of the railroad tracks will never be able to rely on the west station due to the number and lengths of trains which block the major east-west access roads for 15-20 minutes and more at a time. Once the conference center-hotel is built on Holleman Drive, that well-traveled street will become as difficult for a fire truck or ambu- lance to get out of the station as the Texas Avenue location is now. Ease of access to F.M. 2818, east or west, and north central College Station, as well as south to Rock Prairie Road, makes the Rio Grande station the ideal one to serve these areas quickly and effi- ciently. Please write or call today and ask to keep the Rio Grande station so that our city and its people will have the protection they deserve. CRAIG and MARGARET GRIFFITH ~ met Pat At~k~'ns~after he gradu- ated from A&M Consolidated in the late 60's. I don't know where his nickname originated, but everybody calls him "Duck!" He preferred the company of Bryan boys back then and still keeps in touch with his old running buddies, Scott Decker, Stan Carter and Ronnie Scott, who all work in the Houston area. The guys often meet on Friday for a few beers before returning home to College Station, so I thought "Duck" should have a few stories to tell. But I was rhis- taken! Pat couldn't finish a complete thought, before jumping to another subject, as I pumped him for information, but he han- dled sentences pretty well. "I bet those guys have a few tales to tell?" I hinted. "Yeah, we talk about old times and girls we went to school with," Pat answered with a gleam in his eye! (then silence) "Well," I con- tinued, "Tell me some stories!" (more silence) I was flustered, but after repeated prodding, he mentioned the names of Marsha Sharp and Lana Reed- McDonald. "What about 'em?" I pleaded, but all hope for a expose was lost, as "Duck" spotted the keg and wandered off. That's when it hit me ...Pat can "duck" a story with the best of `em!

Wednesday, April 15, 1998 + Michel defeats Locke; Cornyn wins AG runo Turnout ~ ~ght in ~ court race By KELLY BROWN Eagle Staff Writer Republican Randy Michel won Tuesday's runoff race for Brazos County Court-at-Law No. 1, sending him to the November general election where he'll face Democrat Allen Segal. Michel, a private practice lawyer, garnered 2,146 votes, or 58 percent, to defeat prose- cutor Jim Locke, who received 42 percent of the vote with 1,536 ballots cast in his favor. Brazos County Clerk Mary Ann Ward said the voter turnout of 3,722 ballots cast was light, especially consider- ing there are 74,629 registered voters in the county. Returns from early voting told the end result two hours before the final ballot was ~.nted - the percentages ~~ d up almost exactly the se.

Burial will b~~ in Sabinal Cemetery. Mr. Boykin died Monday in College Station as a result of a motorcyle accident. He was born in London, England, and was a graduate of Texas A&M University. He was an employee of KBTX-TV in Bryan. Survivors include his p~--~ ~-lts, John and Elaine Boykin c ~f San Antonio and Austin; a b~:,cL.'~er, Scott Boykin of Austin; two aunts, Cheryl Brown of San Antonio and Norma Lane of England; and two grandmothers, Ann Boykin of Sabinal and Nan Miller of England. ~r~€ ~f ~~ :.,. lN~~r (1 In early 1943 Calvin Boykin, who had just finished the fall semester of his freshman year at Texas A&M had a deci- sion to make. Join the military now or be drafted soon. He volunteered, joined the Army and began his training in a newly formed tank destroyer unit. On Valentine's day 1944, he and 15,000 other soldiers disembarked from .what had been a luxury liner, the Isle of France, now a troop transport, in Scotland. "They first had us long security for the invasion troops. After they left. I was up to my elbows in soap and water washing pots and pans, when I heard over the radio that our troops had landed on D-Day. I thought here I am washing pots and pans and those guys are doing something important." It wasn't long till they left the pots and pans behind as we headed over as part of the 7th armed Division in Patton's 3rd Army. Boykin's first duty after landing was to "convince" the Germans that had been bypassed by the allied invasion, to surrender. "The first Germans we ran into were two guys talking to a French woman in an apple orchard. They hadn't heard us coming so when they say us, they threw up their hands before we could throw up ours, so we took them prisoner." On the way to liberate Paris, Boykin's company came upon a cavalry unit outside of Rambouillet that had been ambushed and was under fire. "They tried to warn us of an '88' the Germans had across the field. Before I could traverse my vehicle around, they fired the '88'. You could actually see the projectile which looked like a torpedo as it crossed the field toward us. It went underneath my vehicle tearing out part of the wheels and making a mess. We returned fire and we, as well as the cavalry unit, were able to get out of their line of fire. We had lost our first man but the cavalry unit had lost seven." The French wouldn't allow Boykin's unit to be the first into Paris, reserving that for themsglves. Instead they were sent over the Moselle River where they lost a lot of tanks and then on to Holland. Things were fairly quiet•for awhile until the winter of 1944, when Boykin's unit began supporting the infantry near the Ruhr River. "The hattle was fierce and bodies were everywhere •in the snow. Everyone was cold, wet and miserable. We cap- tured aconcrete pillbox and we all got inside so we could get warm and stay dry. Instead we all got the flu." On December 16. 1944. the Germans started their counter offensive which later became known as the.Battle of the Bulge. "On the 17th we were sent down to St. Vith. I could see my platoon leader, a quiet, cautious fellow who had said to us earlier that he would do his best to get us all home. in the jeep ahead of my vehicle. I saw him reach up and touch his son's baby shoes he had Minn r~~m ~~~ ~+~~~ ~ ~ -- then we were headed into trouble." The 7th Armored's column was `cut' by Germans on the •way down. Eighty soldiers were captured and were machine gunned down by the Germans. Boykin's unit held out at St. Vith but were surrounded just like the U. S. Forces at Bastogne. "The only difference was at St. Vith, when asked to surrender, we didn't have anyone with enough wit to tell the Germans, `Nuts' like the Commander at Bastogne." The German offensive halted on December 29, 1944. "From then on, it was piecemeal battles until we crossed the Rhine River at Remagen. We stayed on the west side firing our 90 mm guns in support, day and night until we crossed." "After we crossed, the Germans began to give up in large numbers. The German commanders. I later read. real- ized that the men left would be needed to rebuild Germany. With the Russians advancing from the east and us from the west, we had German units looking forAmerican and British units to surrender to. I had one whole German infantry com- pany, or what was left of one, surrender to me." After the hostilities ceased on May 7, 1945, Boykin's unit was sent to Leipzig, in the Russian zone to oversee a large POW camp. "One day I was notified that the German commander wanted to see me, so I took off my weapon and went into the camp. The commander handed me a message for my com- manding officer. He told me I could read it as it was in English. It was a petition from all the German soldiers in the POW Camp to join the U. S. Army to help us fight the Russians. I told him the Russians were our allies. He replied, 'you will find out they are not.' He was, we later learned, right." After the war. Boykin re-enrolled at A&M and married a SMU graduate in 1946. After graduation he worked for the Soil Conservation Service, obtained his masters degree from A&M and was on he staff of the Agricultural Economic department for several years. Later he was involved with the Economic Research Service with the USDA, here and around the world, until his retirement. ' "I've made several trips back to the places I served and I vowed to myself and the guys I served with, that I would write about what we did. So in 1995 I published Garela Bete: A History of the 814th Tank Destroyer Battalion, 1942-1945. I hope the guys approve. I am proyd of them and what we did."

"Bud" Denton father was a . significant influence in his life. His father was a coal mine lawyer in Kentucky, where Butl was born and a lawyer wrth the Attorney General's office in Washington, D.C., where he spent his younger yyears. The family eventually moved to Texas where he was encouraged by his father, a WWI veteran, to enroll at Texas A&M. "My dad, being a veteran of WWI, thought A&M and the Corps of Cadets would be a lot better for me than the University of Texas and its fraterni- ties and sororities. He was right. I enrolled in September 1941 but because of the war, was draft- ed into the Army in January 1943. I was able to finally graduate after the war." Denton was sent to Camp Walters, Texas for basic and heavy weapons training. The Colonel in the change of the training was an Aggie so he picked all the Aggies that were in training and sent them to NCO school. Denton came home after his NCO training to marry his wife Alice. He and Alice were then on them way to Florida for more training until he got the call to head overseas. "We got off the boat at Naples, Italy and were sent for additional training as replacements. We were being trained by veterans who had been wounded but were healthy enough to help with our training. When those guys told us something, we believed it. Also this training was supposed to get you accustomed to mortar and artillery fire. But no amount of training can prepare you for the real thing." Denton and the other replacements were loaded onto trucks and driven to the front lines just north of Rome. "Four of us were directed to report to Company E., 349th Battalion of the 88th Infantry Division, the first "draftee" infantry division in WWII. Despite all of my training and preparation I was not prepared, for what was occurring. My com- pany was in full attack arid within thirty minutes after I got there, an artillery shell hit behind me. I was hit in the back of my legg and I remember think- ing-I have only been here 30 minutes and already wounded. Fortunately when I examined the back of my leg there was no blood and then realized I had been hit by a clod of mud instead shell fragment. That was my introduction to combat." Where we started the Po Valley campaign, we were so thankful to be able to look down in the Valley and see flat ground. We thought we should have. had our legs examined because we were so sure that one leg had to be shorted than the other after spending so many days in mountainous ter- rain. Not only was the terrain tough, it was hard to be re-supplied and because there were few roads and what there were, were in poor condition. A lot of materials had to be hauled in by mules. The prob lem was we had American mules and Italian mule skinners and they had problems communicating We finally solved rt by putting Italian mule skinners with Italian mules and American mules with ~k American mule skinners.

Trees were still in the middle of many streets. Few were paved or hardtopped. Jersey Street, now George Bush Drive, was a gravel road. The city had only a few employ- ees, as I recall, only policemen and no fire department, as that was handled by Texas A&M until the early '70s. Our electric power and water were purchased from our neighbor, Bryan. The Lone Star Gas Com- pany provided energy for heat.

"Dick" Hervey, then a senior at Texas A&M University was taking advantage of the free movie offered by the Campus Theater. Suddenly the film went off and a voice came over the speaker system informing them of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and ordering all students to return to their dorms until further orders. "We didn't know what was going to happen but we were sure it was going to involve us. Those in the class of '42 were not allowed holidays and our whole semester was escalated. We graduated and were commissioned on May 16, 1942." "I reported to duty on May 17, 1942 in the Army Air Corp at Ellington Field in Houston. We never went home after graduation." Hervey began his service with bombers and was sent to Boise, Idaho with the 29'" Bomber Group, which was to become part of the 8"° Air Force. It was there that he served with the movie star, James "Jimmy" Stewart. "Back then, the Hollywood stars and athletes went to war along with everyone else. Jimmy was an instructor pilot. Whenever he walked down the streets of Boise, the women would surround him asking for autographs and pulling his ribbons off his uniform for souvenirs. I walked the streets all the time and never had women trying to tear my ribbons off." 4 ~ , ~ ~ n ., W ~ ~~ Hervey was subsequently assigned to the Pacific Division Air Command headquartered in Hawaii. "One day, we landed on Marcus Island and had to spend the night. I was to sleep in a tent with two other guys. I notice one slept with a .45 pistol. During the night a shot rang out scaring me half to death. I assumed we were under attack. Then I saw this huge rat he shot. I slept the remainder of the night with my pistol too." "I flew over Hiroshima several days after it was bombed and after the war had ended. The devasta- tion was complete but those bombs literally saved thousands of lives. Our intelligence had indicated the Japanese would not only fight to the death but they had trained their women and children to do likewise." After the war, Hervey worked for the Former Students Association at Texas A&M as the director until 1964 when he became the President of Community Savings and Loan, retiring in 1982. He also served as the Mayor of College Statipn from 1970 to 1974. Dick Hervey's name can be found on the Veterans Park Memorial.

The Bryan-College Station ARC is one of 781oca1 units affiliated with the Texas Association for Retarded Citizens, which is in turn an affiliate of the National Association for Retarded Citizens. It was formed to develop, implement and improve ser- vices for the mentally retarded and to represent them in dealings with officials of local govern- ments. ARC began in the early 1950s as a group of con- cerned parents, teachers and friends of the mentally retarded. Its dues are atax-deductible membership donation which helps to support projects to benefit the retarded and to underwrite the organization's efforts to further public understanding of 'their needs. The local Youth Association for Retarded Citizens is a satellite of the Bryan-College Station ARC. Members, who are between the ages of 12 and 25 years, assist in recreation programs for the retarded or do volunteer work in special education classes. In Texas, there are more than 50 local chapters of YARC, sponsored by local ARC units. To join ARC, send a contribution to P.O. Box 5191, Bryan, Texas 77805.

December 31, 1991 voi. s, No. 12 Sta eCenter central art g p of former librarian's life By Jody Bates Special to Golden Eagle Rebecca Landmann was a Phi Beta Kappa librarian by day, but her fame in the Bra- zos Valley came from singing n to the Mockingbird" c ;summer melodrama .fissions, with her late .~usband Wendall as the R Jack Benny straight man on the bird whistle. Two decades of StageCen- ter patrons have roared v~~ith laughter as the turn-of-the Passage in Alaska, several trips to Europe in connec- tionwith Wendall's work as a biochemistry professor at TAMU, and a London theater trip, Landmann said of her husband, who died in the spring. "Our last trip together was to Germany to see the Passion Play. "Wendall suffered heart failure mid-flight. But luck- ily two heart specialists from Houston tivere on our flight and brought him back. After a short rest in Holland, we time on the biochemistry faculi_y. "We loved the gtliet college atmosphere," Landmann said. "For our own enter- tainment we formed a string chamber group of five and met once a week in each other's homes." They both played in the early Bryan-College Station Chamber Orchestra . under the Arts Council, and Rebec- ca served as board member for four years and one as president of the Arts Council Landmann From 1 Rebecca said. She also set up the Distrf Library Processing Center. "There were so many cha lenges," Landmann said. "ar. ' I enjoyed going to all tl schools and working with ; many talented teachers ar, librarians. I love to read, so enjoyed choosing books for tl children." She now helps her churc as librarian and is a libras volunteer at South Knoll Ele mentazy, where her younger son, Rick, teaches. Her othe son, David, is a newspaper man in Idaho. Wendall and Rebecca wer two of the founders of Stage Center. "First we used th stage at the MSC, then Bryar Civic Auditorium and the Trl angle Ballroom. Finally we ha. a permanent home at the Bryan Municipal Countr; Club by the lake, in the ol~ club house." "I loved that place, in spite c the rats," she laughs in recall ing the unwelcome guests "We also found a 'secret' roon that had been boarded up that we later used for storage.' "The balcony that had beer for the orchestra in We ball room was used for the Stage Center light board, and thr front porch was enclosed fo intermission concession aze~ and opening night parties." Does she have a favorite memory of the two decade; she spent worktng in all th productions at StageCenter? "I had the lead in a summe ,melodrama, and on the firs night I tripped, breaking m wrist and spraining an ankle, Landmann said. "But I wante~ to continue, so we found ar antique wheelchair and I fin !shed the four nights seated!"

J. "Bil!" Kling went to work on a two- week job as a member of a survey crew in Matagorda e County in 1937, he had no idea it would be something h he would be involved with for almost 70 years. Kling 9 had graduated from Kosse High School in Kosse. Texas in 1936, and had held several jobs until then, including 9 being a waiter in a pig stand, the forerunner of the 9 „DO.° "I found I enjoyed the survey work and stuck Gvith c it until October 1941. The draft had been instituted and I thought I would enlist.. serve my time and then get back to work. That changed with the bombing of Pearl f Harbor." Kling was sent to Ft. Sill for artillery training as a member of an artillery survey crew and later with the 45th Artillery Division at Camp Barkley ~~ear Abilene. "At Camp Barkley, we were sleeping in tents in a cotton patch. I finally was awarded a weekend pass and decided to go to Dallas to visit family. You could go to the travel bureau and ride with someone far a small fee. I caught a ride with a fellow in a 1940 La Salle, which was about a block long with a big trunk. I thought I would be riding to Dallas in style. Twenty miles out of town we had a flat, and I volunteered to change the tire. I found that the trunk was full of old worn-out tires. I changed tires about every 20 miles, all the way to Dallas." Kling was assigned to Ft. Devens, Mass., and later to East Falmouth, Mass., near Martha's Vineyard to develop tactics for conducting combat beach land- ings. He was eventually moved to the Adirondack Mountains along the Hudson Valley near Lake Huron in upstate New York. "It was so cold,. and about that time the army put out a request for volunteers for OCS. I decided OCS training t Ft. Sill would be a whole lot warmer than Lake Huron, so I volunteered." Kling was accepted and in December 1942 was commissioned as a second lieutenant of field artillery. Kling served at various posts including service under James P. Hannigen, who, after the war, would become Dean of Students at A&M. In the summer of 1944, Kling headed to Europe, landing at Cherbourg, France. Paris was being liberated and Kling was assigned to help operate the "Red Ball Express." "There was a major need for supplies on the front lines. The army assembled approximately 500 trucks to move the supplies from the beachhead to the front lines. We took the main road through France and it turned into aone-way road and on another road com- ing back, we did the same thing. We put two drivers to each truck driving this big oval 24 hours a day. The truck engine never stopped unless it broke down." Kling's first exposure to combat was moving through the Siegfried Line. (~S "It was reimorceu ~u~~~~ ~« N~„ u~~~~• tank barri- rs and gun positions camouflaged and located in omes. It was tough going. It took us a few months to et through it." By now, Kling had been assigned to the intelli- ate pnsonlers.oWtlh inlformatilon hehob ained he went board a small plane so he could see where to con- entrate the fire. "We took off at 3:00 am. You could look back at our lines and see the gun flashes when the guns were fired and then see where the shells exploded. With good intelligence and being able to physically see what you need to target. by using the plane, it became the most effective means we had to direct our fire." After the Battle of the Bulge, which according to Kling was fought along a 50-mile front and in the worst crossed nt dGe manya9rossingKolver the IRuhdrlRsver. Soon after the initial crossing into Germany, the German resistance lessened. Kling and his division were now the farthest north of all of the American troops;ln May of 1945, we made it to the Elbe River, where we ran into the Russians. We were some of the first to meet the Russians. We had a sergeant who was of Polish descent who spoke Polish and they had some guys who spoke Polish so we were able to communi- cate. We had Germans crossing the Elbe clay and night so they could surrender to the Americans. We ended up with over 20,000 German prisoners." Kling was involved with setting up the German civil government and getting it back into operation. "We put the Germans in charge of everything and held them responsible.

I concur completely in what they have written. In addition to the shortcomings of the ordinance in its details, there are several fundamental and philosophical aspects that should be considered. ^The ordinance is a step toward city control of landscaping, an invasion of ci- vil liberties by depriving people of the free enjoyment of their property. This is philo- sophically obnoxious and contrary to ba- sicAmerican principles. ^The ordinance was not voted on by the citizens of College Station, only by the City Council. ^The ordinance is quite impossible to enforce because it uses a number of words and terms that are not defined and that can mean one thing to one person and something else to another. What is a "weed"? One person's weed is another's flower. ^The city's bureaucrats seem to be overlooking a very important provision in the ordinance. In an attempt to protect the rights of individuals, it quite properly states, in part, "...unlawful ... to per- mit weeds, brush or any unsightly or ob- ~ectionable vegetation to grow due to a lack of vegetation management." From this it seems clear that where there is continuing 'begetation management," and where the vegetation in question is a result of that management according to the manager's plan, there is no violation of the ordinance. ^Enforcement of the ordinance is ap- parently erratic, discriminatory, punitive and certainly at the option of the enforc- ing personnel.

Landmann overshadowed -some might say upstaged -his veteran cast members with outrageous expressions, body move- ments and occasional wheezing. Frequent stumbling over lines by some of the other cast members, perhaps due to a shorter than normal rehearsal time, could have caused the bittersweet comedy to bog down. But Landmann came to the rescue. Landmann plays Homer, the son of Ida, who finally brings his fiancee of seven years home to meet his family. His father is unst- able, his neighboring aunts are feuding, and another aunt has been forced to live on the second floor of her house while her husband lives on the first. The house that was prom- ised to him has been leased to an aunt. All is resolved in the end, however, as Homer gets his own house. The play is a vehicle for a quartet of older actresses -Rebecca Landmann (Esty), Har- riet Martin (Arne), Winnie Nelson (Cora) and Wanda Daisa (Ida) -whose perform- ances will no doubt get sharper as the play goes on. Cathy McWhorter as Homer's fiancee, Donnie Wilson as Coca's husband, Will Worley as Ida's husband and Perry Norris as Esty's husband turned in strong supporting performances. The play continues tonight, Saturday and June 2-4 at the StageCenter Theatre at 4309 Wellborn Road in the Westgate Center. Per- formances are at 8 p.m. Tickets are $6 for adults, $4 for students and senior citizens, $2.50 for children under 12.

Jigsaw puzzles of colored glass became quite popular in Europe as the art of stained-glass window making spread from the Near East. The art of assembling multicolored glass mosaics into pictures was particularly popular among the church builders of France, England and Germany during those early days. The lavishly colored windows were regarded as picture stories depicting mankind and man's salvation. Intricate religious figures designed during that medieval era remain today in the many churches throughout the European countries. During the 1500's the demand continued, but the style changed as stained-glass windowmakers began to imitate oil paintings and included flesh tones and perspectives. The result was a decline in interest among the next generations. ,.e It was not until the 1800's that a revival of interest in stained glass appeared. In the United States Louis Comfort Tiffany began to experiment with stained-glass products and other designers soon followed. Today, interest in stained glass has boomed. While stained-glass pic- tures are still popular in creating a total look in religious institutions, homeowners have also become advocates of the industry. Homes are designed with massive to miniature multicolored stained- glass windows for additional beauty. In many cases, however, residents prefer easily transportable windows. These are hung like pictures in front of clear-paned windows. When the residents move, the stained-glass windows go along. Because stained glass is manufactured by only a few companies, the cost of a window can be quite high. Therefore, many stained glass fans are learning the craft for their own usage. And the interest continuesto grow. - - Photos by Peter Leabo Stories by Dorothy Ho/tkamp and Sandra Barron _ Maddox completes course Fredr~c~~A.~Iaddox, an administrator with the Brazos'~ounty Adult robation Department, received a certificate in correctional management om the National Institute of Corrections on Dec. 20.

See story, Page 61. ~tion Eagle Saturday, November 18, 2006 ~~ No gimmicks ver the past few weeks, a substantial amount of financial information has been released regarding the funding for Aggie athletic events. One may come to the conclusion that Athletic Direc- tor Bill Byrne is simply attempting to justify the outra- geous ticket prices for all of Texas A&M's athletic events. I believe that he is simply setting the stage to raise prices yet again for the next season.. It is obvious that Byrne has made great strides in building a winning program at A&M and has added a unique atmos- phere to game days. How much, however, can fans; really take? Whether you agree that the carnival-like atmosphere of A&M football game days adds or detracts from the experience is inconse- quential. The question is is it really worth the price? Do we need a giant multimillion dol- lar mobile television outside the stadium? Do we really need the ribbon boards? Each of these additions cost money. Who pays for that? The Aggie Not so very long ago people could afford to bring their chil- dren to the Baines. Growing up in College Station, I was fortu- nate enough to have attended almost every Aggie football, basketball and baseball-game. I don't think that children today will be able to say the same in ZO years. I believe Byrne will continue to raise the price of attending an Aggie sporting event sim- ply because he knows that the Aggie faithful will pay whatev- er price he asks. But what about the next generation of Aggies? In his few years at A&M, I think Byrne has missed the single most impor- tant feature of this university: the Aggie Spirit. We do not need giant televisions, elec- tronic ribbon boards, or a cir- cus outside the stadium to remind us that we are, and always will be, the 12th Man. BRANDON L.

Carolyn grew up on a sugar cane farm with three brothers and four sisters. As a child, reading and card games were a favorite pastime in the Daspit home, later developing into Carolyn's lifelong passions for reading and bridge. She graduated from Terrebonne High School in Houma, La. Following in the footsteps of her mother and grandmother, she graduated from Louisiana State Normal College in Natchitoches with an education degree. She then returned to Houma to teach at Terrebonne High School. During World War II, Carolyn and four of her siblings joined the military. Carolyn enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corp. on September ?0, 1943 as a link trainer stationed in North Carolina. She met fellow Marine Edgar D. "Hap" McMurry at a family wedding. After a whirlwind long distance courtship, they were married in San Antonio on August 7, 1944. The couple enjoyed an overnight honeymoon in San Marcos. The following day, he returned to duty in San Diego and she returned to North Carolina. After the war, Carolyn and Hap moved to College Station for Hap to attend veterinary school at Texas A&M. Carolyn also attended classes at A&M with a small group of veterans' wives. During this time, the couple had a full house with their two young daughters and two of H1p's Aggie nephews living with them due to the housing shortage. Following Hap's graduation, Carolyn and Hap moved to San Antonio where their third daughter was born.

But Nemec's death Sunday show- ed how dangerous even the com- monplace can sometirnes be. Nemec, 33, station manager of KTAM/KORA and the husband of College Station City Coun- cilwoman, .Lynn Nemec, was elec- trocuted when the mast of his catamaran sailboat touched three 7,200-volt electrical lines at Rocky .

Also injured in the accident was Nemec's nephew, Ronald Liggett, 23, of Deer Park.

Burgess said that whenever possi- ble boaters should use the boat ramps but if for some reason they can't, they should take their masts down the "minute you hit the shoreline." He also said that no matter where you plan to boat, you should always make yourself aware of such hazards before entering the water. While Nemec's death was the first one of its kind Burgess could remember at Lake Somerville, it was not the first time the mast of a sailboat came into contact with elec- trical lines. He said that about one year ago, the owner of a larger boat with a 40- foot mast tore down some lines near the boat ramp at Overlook Park. A close friend and colleague of i Nemec, Ben Downs, operations manager of KTAM/KORA, was t called by park authorities shortly after the accident to pick up Nemec's wife, Lynn, and their two children, who were picnicking 15 , feet from where the accident oc- ; curred. Liggett, Downs said, apparently was injured when he tried to pull ' Nemec free of the catamaran. "He tried to pull Lewis loose f and was thrown back by the force ~ of the electrical current," he said. , Nemec had just bought the boat _ and had been sailing for about one month, Downs said.

Furthermore, the chief Senate sponsor of the overhaul plan -Sen. Bob Kerrey of Nebraska - was another prominent Democrat and a potential rival of Vice President Al Gore for the 2000 Democratic presidential nomination.

"He loved them. This man has worked hard for these animals, and they proba- bly love him as much as he loves them." Before making his decision, the judge viewed footage taken by journalists from two area television stations during the day of the seizure. The tapes displayed a run- down barn with heaps of feces in the stalls and nails protrud- ing through the roof. They also showed piles of debris in the swampy pasture and sickly looking horses, some with their ribs protruding. "I am never happy to take away animals from an owner. It's never a choice we want to go for," prosecutor Spencer Giles said after the judge announced his decision. "It's not a happy day for either side." Sousares retains possession of the remaining 33 horses on the property. Shelter officials said they considered the ruling as a vote of confidence in the shelter's ability to recognize and fight animal cruelty. Brazos County commissioners took away the shelter's authority to seize live- stock just days after the seizure. Durham said Friday she hopes to place the horses quick- ly so they can get settled in their new homes and the shel- ter can keep its expenses to a minimum. "I think the whole situation is sad, and I'm sorry that we got here," Durham said after the administrative hearing. a ^ Holly Huffman's a-mail address is holly.huffman@theeagle.com.

War II First of two parts By Bill Youngkin Special to The Eagle Same boys grow up wanting to be doctors, lawyers, firemen or policemen. Jack W Upham of College Station was one of those who was able to become what he always wanted to be - a professional soldier. "I was born in 1921 and grew up in Mineral Wells, Texas. The army had a National Guard horse cavalry unit stationed at Camp Wolters outside of Mineral Wells. As young as six or seven I remember the horses and uniforms of the soldiers as they participated in the Fourth of July parade. That was all I wanted to do from that day forward - be a soldier, wear a unltorm and be in the cavalry. "After leaving school in Mineral Wells, I attended Riverside Military Academy in Gainesville, Georgia, where I was enrolled in ROTC. When I graduated in 1941, I was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Army. My first set of orders in 1942 sent me back to Mineral Wells and Camp Wolters. I had filled out my paperwork to enter the flight program, but until that came through I was placed in command of a training company of new recruits for an infantry rifle company. Those orders for flight school never came until I was in the South Pacific. "At Camp Wolters we were to train raw troops and we were supposed to have a full cadre of enlisted non-commissioned officers and officers. We didn't have any other officers and just a few NCOs. As a newly minted second lieutenant, I had only the vaguest idea about what I was to do. But I was blessed with a first sergeant named Charles Baker, who was a iwice- wounded veteran of World War I and a 25-year veteran. "My first day in the company the first sergeant asked `what the Lieutenant desired.' I said, 'Let us step in the C.O.'s office.' I closed the door and spoke to him about my desires. I asked him if it was possible for him to keep my ass out of trouble. He replied, 'I believe the Lieutenant has it made.' That was my first command decision and one of my best. In the next several weeks I teamed more about commanding troops than I could ever have imagined." From Camp Wolters, Upham was sent to Camp Adair, Oregon, as part of the training cadre for the 104th Division. In 1944 he received orders and was sent to New Caledonia in the Pacific to join the 25th Infantry Division. The 25th had been part of the invasion of Guadalcanal and was just returning from New Zealand, where they had been on rest and relaxation. On New Caledonia they began to train for the invasion of Luzon in the Philippines. "I was assigned as a rifle platoon leader to Company B, 27th Infantry Regiment, 25th Infantry Division. Our company was composed of some Guadalcanal veterans and some replacements like myself. In early 1945 we began the invasion of Luzon, landing on the beach at San Fernando. We had some resistance on the beach, but it was light. We fought our way to the highway that went north and south on the island and we headed north. Our goal was to cut off the Japanese in the north end of the island from those in the south." "We would be in combat for 162 consecutive days. We started on the beach at San Fernando and ended at Balata Pass. For 162 days it was climb, get behind something, return fire and start climbing again. Shortly after we got to the top, they dropped the A-bomb and the war ended." The 25th Division would lose over 3,000 men the first 30 days of the invasion. When B Company landed on the beach at San Fernando, it contained 167 men and 6 officers, including Upham. One hundred and sixty two days later there were 27 of the original enlisted men left and Upham was the only officer. He was now commanding the company. During the 162 days of constant combat, they would receive 150 enlisted replacements and nine officer replacements. When the fighting ended there were 67 men, total, remaining in the company. During the Philippine invasion Upham would be wounded twice and one of his squad leaders, Sgt. Cooley, would receive the Congressional Medal of Honor. Cooley was awarded the medal for saving his squad from a grenade that had been tossed into their midst. He put his helmet over the grenade and laid on his helmet. He was unable to survive his wounds but saved the men in his squad. That is what some people are willing to do to protect those they are responsible for. Next week is Upham's personal story of combat on the island of Luzon and the remainder of his career in the army, which included the invasion of Korea by North Korean forces. Jack W. Upham's name can be found on the Brazos I/alley Veterans Memorial For more information, to make a contribution, or if you know a World War ll Veteran whose story needs to be told, contact the BVl/Mat www. veteransmemorial. org or Bill Youngkin at (979) 260-7030.
