Councilman Henry Seale was also present at election headquarters Saturday night when the results of the council races and the bond vote were finalized.

BONARRIGO Eagle Staff Writer Bryan residents voted overwhelmingly Saturday to invest an additional $14.7 million in their utility system for improvements to the electric, water and sewer systems. The bond issue passed by a 2 -1 margin with 61.79 per cent of the total 4,762 votes cast in favor of the electrical improvements; 66.66 per cent of the votes were in favor of the waterworks system improvements and 67.86 per cent of the votes were in favor of the sewer system improvements. Seven precincts came in with better than 70 per cent of the votes cast in favor of the bond issue and two precincts came in with better than 80 per cent of the votes in favor of the bond issue. The $10.1 million bond issue for im- provements to the electrical system con- sistently received fewer favorable votes than the $2 million bond issue for water im- provements and the $2.6 million bond issue for sewer system improvements.

QUESTION — I have noticed that there is a female police officer on the College Station police force but not one on the Bryan force. Will Bryan be getting any female police officers any time soon? If not, why not? ANSWER — There is indeed a female police officer working in College Station, handling the parking situation at the Northgate area of CS and school crossing areas. Lt. Gene Knowles of the Bryan Police Dept. says their office currently has more than 25 applications for positions with their department. Several of them are female. He says they must pass the tests, doctor's physical and conditioning physical just like all the male applicants are required to do before they can be accepted on the force. If they do, Knowles says, they stand as good a chance as any of the men of being accepted on the force. QUESTION — I heard a record on the radio the other day called "RIght Back Where We Started From." It's sung by someone named Maxine Nightingale. Can you tell me about her? ANSWER — Action Line has found that Maxine is the mother of soul singer Arethra Franklin. Ms. Nightingale is now in her early 60's and this is her first recording, one that is moving up on the charts rapidly.

Thirteen others suffered burns and other injuries, many caused by 20-and 30 -foot leaps. "We suspect arson," said a Fire Department spokeswoman. "We believe that in all probability it was arson because of the nature of the fire and the evidence we found." She said officials found in the rear of the building an empty container that had held a flammable liquid. Investigators said the fire began in the back of the hotel. Earlier, police questioned three men, one of them a former employe of the hotel, but officers said the three were released and the investigation was continuing. The fire erupted at about 1 a.m. and quickly spread through the 70- year -old Avondale Hotel in the heart of downtown Miami and an adjacent, unoccupied hotel. A third hotel was less severely damaged. Firemen at the Avondale told of elderly victims standing at their windows, screaming for help and then falling back into the flames before rescuers could reach them. "Had these old people been a little stronger, they could have stepped out the window, onto a ledge and then onto an adjacent roof," said Fire Chief Don Hick- man. Bonds....

Last year's voter turnout in the school district elections was only slightly more than 14 per cent. But this election did have the added impetus of a bond issue election and was the first held in conjunction with the city council election. Of 10,072 qualified voters, 3.315 made it to the polls. LAMBERT WILKES Lambert H. Wilkes, the only incumbent seeking reelection, was narrowly returned to the board, over an impressive campaign waged by Elliott 0. Bray. Wilkes gathered 1,544 votes for 50.97 per cent and Bray got 1,485 votes for 49.03 per cent of the vote. The irony of this public decision is that Bray sup- ported the proposed bond issue and Wilkes opposed it, but the bond issue passed. The deciding ballot box in this race appeared to be the Wellborn precinct, which gave Wilkes a 104 vote margin over Bray, South Knoll precinct. The Wellborn precinct voted overwhelmingly against the bond issue and the South Knoll precinct voted over- whelmingly in favor of the bond issue. The campus precinct, which supported the bond issue, also supported Bray with 65 votes to Wilkes' 41. Roger G. Feldman won in a four -man race for Position 2, and William D. Fitch won in a five -man race for Position 4. Feldman got 31.26 per cent of the vote. Elizabeth A. Naugle received 27.76 per M ID s HURRY - LIMITED TIME OFFER The Eagle the story the locked boxes would tell as were most Bryan - College Station voters Saturday.

Valerie Marie Naylor, representing the Phi Mu fraternity, Episol Kappa chapter, received her crown from James Brashear of San Angelo, this year's King Cotton and a senior agronomy major. The annual pageant pays homage to cotton, recognizing it as a major cash crop in Texas.

Sponsoring the event again this year was the Student Agronomy Society at Texas A&M. This year's pageant theme was "Cotton — Growing With America." Naylor's evening gown reflected the bicentennial celebration of America.

CS School Board Meeting Monday The A &M Consolidated School Board meets at 7 p.m. Monday in Room 7 of the Special Services Building, 1300 Jersey St., College Station in a special meeting to canvass the - ,election results. . Other items on the agenda ,include administering the Traffic Grant To Bryan A grant of $39,857 has been awarded the City of Bryan by the Governor's Office of Traffic Safety to implement the Selective Traffic En- forcement Program (STEP). In making the an- nouncement, Governor Dolph Briscoe said the STEP con- cept was used in 18 com- munities last fiscal year with a sizable increase expected for the future. Said Briscoe, "STEP will utilize off duty police officers, at an overtime pay rate, to patrol particularly hazardous intersections or roadways with a watchful eye for violations that contribute to accident causes. The evidence of having identified police units at the scene of these potentially dangerous locations can often reduce the number of crashes. However, with increased identification and issuance of citations or warnings, we can now `bottom line' the impact and prove prevention of injuries or deaths." Briscoe noted the increase of accidents and deaths on U.S., State and rural highways and said STEP's should be used on roads other than the rural area Interstates. "Often police officers have to be involved in crime related investigations and traffic safety may have to take a back seat to the criminal element. However, it should be pointed out that almost three times as many people are killed in traffic than are murdered and the economic cost contributes billions of dollars each year to our already inflated economy," concluded the Governor. oaths of office and reorganization of the board. Administrative reports will also be given on the calendar year 1976 -77 and the regional school board workshop. The school board will then go into executive session to consult with the school district's attorney and to discuss personnel. The meeting will then be reopened, public business discussed and meeting ad- journed. ��Illl�il By the time you exercise so as to be able to touch your toes easily, your back goes on the fritz.

Yet tragically they are headed the wrong way down a one way path to God. There is only one church today that can get you to heaven. that is the church that Jesus Christ reigns over ( "there is one church body' Ephesions 4:4). False teaching has built false churches, and these are going the wrong way. (Please read I Timothy 4:1.3; II Tim 4:1.4 Matthew 7:15: Galatians 1:6.9: Jude 3:11 Corinthians 111-5) Jesus prayed that His church would be united and bound in one way (John 17:1 -25) We con only believe one way about Jesus (Gal. 1:6 -9) We con only be saved one way (John 3:5. 1 Peter 1:22: Acts 2:38). Beloved, as you may find yourself in the wrong way, look up and see that there is a church that is going the one way of Jesus. following the Bible and the One Way of Jesus Christ.

SIC CREDIT COMPANY 306 Post Office Phone: 823 -0951 The Press and Patty Hearst Sensational Trial, Mature Coverage By Murray Olderman SAN FRANCISCO — (NEA) — Don Thackrey knew it wasn't going to be an ordinary story to cover when he showed up the first day of the pretrial hearings at his usual beat in the Federal Building. This was in San Francisco, on Golden Gate Avenue, and Patricia Campbell Hearst was arraigned for helping rob a bank. Thackrey is the federal beat reporter for United Press International, a squat man with a thick mane of graying hair and a full beard and a trace of his native Camden, Ark., still in his speech. Judge Oliver Carter had moved the incipient trial of Patty Hearst, which was already becoming a cause celebre to rank with the Lindbergh case, from his nor- mal chambers to the Ceremonial Court Room, which had 28 more seats. On this first morning, Thackrey was confronted by a couple hundred jostling, shov- ing, clamoring members of the media, all trying to get into the courtroom. Knowing the territory, he turned around, hustled down a familiar corridor and in the back door to the judge's chambers behind the cour- troom. "I could see the glares," recalls Don, "when I came out to the court room through his chambers. I wasn't going to do that every day, so I talked to the judge. Next thing, I was in charge of arranging the press seating for the whole trial." A month later, as the ordeal of Patty Hearst was winding down to its decisive stages, Thackrey said he felt like "a den mother for a kindergarten." And yet, generally speak- ing, the press coverage of the Hearst trial proceedings was controlled and orderly and quite professional, without the raucous mob scenes, the rudeness, the strident behavior that has been por- trayed in other notorious trials. Vivid is the insistent in- trusion of the press in a recent television dramatization of the trial of Bruno Hauptmann for the kidnap- murder of Charles Lindbergh Jr. It wasn't like that around the Hearst case, with one ex- ception — when, during a recess for Washington's birth- day, the defendant, the jury, the judge and assorted at- torneys were taken on a tour of the two places in the San Francisco area where Patty had been held captive. Hordes of spectators — and reporters — were allowed to swirl around the principals, and the transport between locations became a drag race, finally prompting an editorial in the San Francisco Examiner, which had carefully refrained from comment, about "the unnecessary series of mob scenes and dangers." But in the courtroom of U.S. District Judge Oliver Carter, there was decorum. Mainly because the judge, recogniz- ing that "this is the most fully covered case to date in this country that I know of," put the press in an allied rather Patty Hearst's attitudes as a witness ranged from composure to halting, wispy sobs. And in those contrasts and in the trial situations that produced them, was the material that could keep writers engrossed for weeks. than adversarial role. "He bent over backwards to give us everything we want," notes Thackrey, who was in charge of seating arrangements. No bona fide media representatives were shut out. Altogether, 65 seats were reserved daily for various news organizations. Another 50 were set aside for other media people who had only to show a credential identifying that person as a member of the press. The total of 115 press seats exceeded the demand. Except for the first two full days that Patty Hearst was in the witness box, there was no real crush to get in. The media attendance daily averaged 90 until Patty Hearst got in the witness box. Court was in session at 10 a.m., and you showed up on most days at 9:30, if you didn't have a reserved seat. A security man checked your personal possessions; you went through a makeshift electronic surveillance and on into the courtroom. In the line with me one mor- ning were a columnist from Newsweek, a man from the Stockholm Express, a man from a French newspaper agency, another representing European weeklies, a free lance writer from Sun Valley, Idaho, and a bunch of college press kids. The real scenes for "Front Page" updated were enacted in a makeshift press room on the seventh floor — Room 7433 — which was called fondly "The Jungle." A maze of elec- tronic gear and wires cluttered the space. This was where F. Lee Bailey, the flamboyant defense lawyer, held his well - orchestrated press conferences. (Prosecutor James Browning avoided the media except for informal chats outside the court room.) The hardest working people in the court room, were the covey of sketch artists, among them Howard Brodie of CBS and Bill Lignante of ABC, who provided their pencilled im- pressions of the trial setting and its leading characters in lieu of the cameras that were banned. They always had someone or something to draw. Put 1 -00 or more active newsmen in one area where they're scrambling for readable copy, and they'll jump at any lead. They were summoned to meet Steven Weed, the erstwhile boy friend of Miss Hearst, one morning at 8:30 in the Mark Hopkins atop Nob Hill. In the suite at that hour, he was sur- rounded by 30 writers and in front of him on a table were 10 microphones and 13 tape recorders, with six television cameras also recording the scene. This was the same morning Weed was expected to be the defense's first witness, but Bailey, indignant at the press conference, cancelled Weed's court appearance. Patricia Campbell Hearst went on in- stead. She was really the center- piece at all times anyhow for the media and anyone else in- terested in the trial. She was enigmatic. At times she was hauntingly at- tractive; at other times she looked gaunt and wan. Her at titudes as a witness ranged from firm composure to halting, wispy sobs. The case of Patty Hearst was absorbing and sensational enough in itself to obviate the need for frenzied scrambling for angles, for harassment of news sources. The coverage was, for the most part, mature and contemplative.
