Panel members are Lev Thomas, Bryan lay lead- er; the Rev. Patrick Flores, Auxiliary Bishop I of San Antonio; the Rev. W. L. Brownlow of Mar- shall. Widely known East Texas Methodist minis- ter; and Andy Herrera, Bryan city councilman. The discussion will be moderated by Reagan Brown, Extension Ser- vice sociologist at Texas A&M. Conference Publicity Chairman Kenneth Wolf, A&M Extension economist agribusiness, said the ov- erall theme of the two-day meeting is "Merchandis- ing the Church Program from a Full Wagon." He said the conference is planned by a group of inter-denominational rural ministers and conducted by the A&M Department of Agricultural Economics & Rural Sociology. Sponsors are the Texas Agricultural Extension Service and the Texas Ag- ricultural Experiment Sta- tion. Sun-X Internation,' Inc., has introduced a new gold reflective glass tint- ing film to be marketed domestically and interna- tionally. John F avretto, Director of Marketing, said that Sun- X is the first in the sun- control industry to distri- bute a gold flim of this type. The addition to the Sun- X line provides customers a ,choice of the new gold film or the silver film which the company already distributes. Favretto said the Sun- control qualities of the two products are identical. Both, when applied to win- dow glass in office build- ings, schools, homes, bus- inesses or other installa- tions, reduce solar heat by 76 per cent over clear glass. The efffect is to en- hance air-conditioning ef- ficiency and economy, to reduce detrimental ultra- I violet rays, to soften glare and to make the glass re- sistant to shattering. Both films are made of tough, DuPont Mylar which has been metalized and giv- en a protective polyester coating. Both afford a "one-way" glass ef- fect, lending a distinctive silver or golden ap- pearance to the buildings exterior. Sun-X, based in Houston. Texas, will supply the new film to all of its 400 dis- tributors in 50 countres. The Sun-X Gold as well as other Sun-X reflective films are available locally through WAND W Gen- eral Contractors, Inc.. Sun-X Division, 406 Tee Drive, Bryan, Texas. Mr. R. C. Cloud is the local consultant and represen- tative for the local firm.

WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE LAWSUIT AGAINST THE MAYOR ~ND CITY COUNCILMEN OF COLLEGE STATION? Farmers and ranchers of Brazos County have e- lected a total of 25 ASC community committeemen and alternates in a mail election conducted earlier this month, according to H. H. Moore, Chairman of the County Agricultural Stabilization and Conser- vation (ASC) Committee. ASC community com- mittees assist the County ASC Committee in admin- istering farm programs in Brazos County, such as cotton allotments, feed grain bases, and agricul- tural conservation cost- sharing measure. They also help keep local pro- ducers informed of farm program provisions and regulations. In addition, the just- elected ASC community committees have an im- portant responsibility in the near future in filling vacancies on the County ASC Committee and deter- mining the chairman and Vice-chairman for the coming year, Mr. Moore said. The new ASC communi- ty committeemen will con- vene Sept. 25, 1970 at 9 a.m. at Brazos County ASCS Office in a meeting open to the public. They will elect one Coun- ty Committeeman to serve a three-year term and two alternates to serve one- year terms. After the vacancies are filled, the community committeemen will determine which of the three regular mem- bers of the County ASC Committee will be Chair- man and Vice-Chairman. Each of the five ASC community committees are made up of three members and two alternates, who serve for a one-year per- iod. The candidate in each ASC community who re- ceived the largest number of votes is the committee chairman. Second highest is vice-chairman; third is regular committee mem- ber; fourth and fifth in the number of votes re- ceived are first and se- cond alternates. Following are the new- ly elected ASC community committeemen in Brazos County, listed in the or- der of chariman, vice- chairman, member, first alternate, and second al- ternate: Community "A": Chair- man, Mack Cooner; Vice Chairman, Bill Terrell; Regular Member, Ed Se- besta; 1st Alternate, Tom Moore; 2nd Alternate, Freddie A. Wolters. Community "B": Chair- man, Albert Newcomb; Vice Chairman, Harry Stit- eler; Regular member, Jimmie Weedon, 1st Alter- nate, Jim Holloway, 2nd Alternate, H. L. Cargill. Community "C": Chair- man, Milton Closs; Vice Chairman, George H. Leighman; Regular Mem- ber, Edgar J. Irick; 1st Alternate, Clyde Wilson; 2nd Alternate, C. E. Payne. Community "0".: Chair- man, Tony Varisco, Jr., Vice Chairman, Don An- tonia; Regular Member, Lee J. Fazzino; 1st Alter- nate, Leon F. Cash; 2nd Alternate, Sam Morello. Community "E": Chair- man, G. W. Lightsey; Vice I Chairman, Preston J. Ruf- fino III; Regular Member, Roy Barnes; 1st Alternate, Hugh Thurman; 2nd Alter- nate, E. H. Glockzin. Mr. A. P. \ Boyett, Sr. and others sued Robert S. Calvert, State Comptroller, in an Austin c.ourt seeking to prevent him from paying the Texas A&M University salaries of the Mayor and five city councilmen of College Station while these men are serving in City government. This suit claims that an ,"empIQyee" of Texas A,&M University is, an "agent, officer or appointee" of the State of Texas and thus inelgible to draw a state salary while holding an office of honor or trust such as service on the City Council even though such service is without com- pensation. While this Austin lawsuit applies only to the particular individuals who have been sued, and is being heard in Austin since the State Comptroller is involved, the City and most of the citizens are concerned greatly with the wider implications. Without doub t no employee of Texas A&M University who requires his salary for a livelihood could afford to serve on any City Council, a School Board, or in any other capacity, appointive or elective, which would be considered a position of honor 0 r trust even though no compensation would be paid for such service. This same prohibition to serve would apply to all staff, faculty and employees of every state-supported college and university in Texas. Numerous people now residing in this com- munity would suffer a disqualification from public service notwithstanding outstanding in- di vidual capabilities. Not only would emplyees of Texas A&M University be excluded from public service but other state employees would be effected equally. Voter choice here and elsewhere could be severely restricted and majority rule may be in jeopardy. (!)rr~[BID ~rrl!l[B IIDrJID~ HARDWARE CO. "BRY AN'S MOST INTERESTING STO,RE". 822-1541 108 N.
