00:00:02.759 - 00:00:16.629

I smelled something earlier. It just smelled like, you know, somebody had little match and little cigarettes. But, you know, I didn't even think of it because there's a normal smell in the, in the pub. People like cigarettes. So then we came back to the bar and

00:00:16.639 - 00:00:30.760

a few minutes later, I saw some smoke and this guy at point was pointing down the fire at the trash can and I saw the flames starting to come out but it was just a little tiny flame. So when we did, we took them with pitchers

00:00:30.770 - 00:00:42.310

full of water and just dumped about 10 pitches on the fire and it just went out, there was just a lot of smoke. So we started clearing people out of the pub because it was 15 minutes early. But we got everybody out and there was no

00:00:42.319 - 00:01:01.250

problem. The results are in for polls held Tuesday to elect next year's college officers for Will Rice and Hansen Will Rice ballot counters ran into difficulty when they found they had two more ballots than signatures. That was enough to change the outcome of that college's election

00:01:01.259 - 00:01:14.540

for president. So the election will have to be held again, there will be only one run off and that for treasurer between Steve Kaplan and Jim Mishka Pam Kelly will be next year's vice President Alison Bober will be secretary and Joe Moro will fill the post

00:01:14.550 - 00:01:31.830

of Internal Affairs Chairman Hansen College didn't need any runoffs. They elected Dan mccormick for President Jim High for Internal vice President Bob Gardner is external vice president for Secretary Chris Wagner for treasurer Steve Millon. Mike Monarchy will be the new chief justice Dave Reed, the Advocate

00:01:31.839 - 00:01:58.260

and Bill Nielsen Hansen's s a senator. I'm Bill Bray for KT News preferential balloting should eliminate the need for a runoff. In the case of the two RPC races. President Vice president, we'll have to go back and tabulate the third place preference votes among the two

00:01:58.269 - 00:02:11.190

candidates who weren't allowed or who came in third in the original election and see if those third place votes can put the two candidates who would be in a run off above the majority. And if it does do that, then there won't be any need for

00:02:11.199 - 00:02:32.429

a run off this Wednesday night. The President's lecture series drew to a close with a presentation by Dr Lewis Thomas courtesy of the UT Health Science Center at Houston. Dr Thomas is currently chancellor of the memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York, an award winning

00:02:32.440 - 00:02:47.500

author of the Lives of a Cell and the Medusa and the snail. The title of Dr Thomas speech was the value of science within which he delved into the need for and benefits of science, analyzed some of its current problems and proposed several courses of action

00:02:47.509 - 00:03:02.990

towards solving those problems. Science, Dr Thomas tells us though only just getting underway is mankind's great promise for the future. There is a gamble to depend on science for progress but is the only game in town. From the viewpoint of a highly educated layman, Dr Thomas

00:03:03.000 - 00:03:20.570

presented various examples and arguments with an occasional striking thought thrown in the greatest of the great truths are those for which the opposite statement is also a great truth. He perceives problems with the current science primarily a result of governmental funding or the lack thereof. He

00:03:20.580 - 00:03:36.960

advocates private sector funding of basic research perhaps through a collaboration between industry and academia. Despite certain conflicts of interest between the two, at least 5% of our nation's gross national product should be devoted to basic research devoted to essential science rather than to immediately profitable technology.

00:03:37.600 - 00:03:54.250

Furthermore, education must be improved particularly on the elementary and secondary levels comparing the typical depth of scientific and mathematical understanding of American high school graduates to that of their Russian counterparts. Dr Thomas indulges in a bit of nationalistic alarmism motivating his conclusions from the standpoint of

00:03:54.259 - 00:04:11.779

our nation's security. Dr Thomas concluded with an impressive example of a success of basic research. 1/19 century discovery of the evolution of languages, a scientific work of art, just as much science as his own field of biochemistry or of nuclear physics and social science. At that,

00:04:12.250 - 00:04:34.649

Dr Thomas presented an interesting hopeful picture of science at work. Mankind's future hope. I'm Paul Williamson for KT News. One company offered once a month. They had birthday night where they had self serve ice cream and cake and everybody that had a birthday that month sang

00:04:34.660 - 00:04:58.619

Happy Birthday. And then we just had a whole bunch of cake and ice cream birthday. And they did that once a month. And uh 11 system would offer meal meals in accordance with the national holidays. Um No, July 4th, they'd serve, you know, hot dogs and

00:04:58.630 - 00:05:21.799

hamburgers. And in Chinese New Year, they'd serve Chinese food. And in a big big answer, the big question of cafeteria style dining. Yes or no. I think it was a situation that we found that you're gonna get about the same quality food or the cafeteria that

00:05:21.809 - 00:05:44.660

you're gonna get. I start like what we have. Ok. Basically the reason uh the minority organizations are asking for the $2. Well, first of all, we have two propositions, we're even asking, we're either asking that the blanket tax be increased by $2 in order that these

00:05:44.670 - 00:06:01.670

minority organizations can receive the funds or should tax per be dismantled. We're asking that those funds be reallocate to the minority organizations. Now, the reason that we're asking this is because we believe that these organizations contribute significantly to uh to the right community, to the right

00:06:01.679 - 00:06:19.769

experience. But to a certain extent, the activity that we've been able to provide have been circumscribed by financial constraints. We believe if we have the funds, we can make more lasting and enduring contributions to the right experience. Specifically, what we would like to do is sponsor

00:06:19.779 - 00:06:34.910

more lectures of uh national renown. We'd like to put on more events like International Night, which we thought was complete success. But uh a lot of interest in it has been limited because of maybe uh the amount we charge, we'd like to open things up like

00:06:34.920 - 00:06:53.459

that for the entire right community to come and partake of it freely. Uh provide lecturers uh different social activities like mime acts local national troops that everyone can identify with. And that might just uh not only can they identify with them, but they'll be able to,

00:06:53.470 - 00:07:07.920

to present a different perspective that they might have not been exposed to before in relation to the soccer club or the rugby club or something like that. I really think that is specific interest specific. I don't think that the minority organizations would fall under that kind

00:07:07.929 - 00:07:24.350

of rubric. Uh I feel essentially that uh the difference between these clubs and the minority organizations are we consider those as options uh that a student can exercise. Whereas the contributions these organizations can make to the rights experience, we consider that as essential as very germane

00:07:24.359 - 00:07:40.100

to that process. Now, two things that are pointed out in the preamble of the essays uh constitution, um they have seven goals and two of those is uh that the organization should be committed to community and civic interest. We do those things, we venture past the

00:07:40.109 - 00:07:57.559

university and engage in community affairs. Uh Another one of importance is that these organizations should enhance international and national awareness. We do those things and we don't see how uh the rugby club or the soccer club or the rifle club could, could realistically achieve either of

00:07:57.570 - 00:08:17.019

those goals. We think that's a significant difference between our organizations and, and such groups as the rugby club. Two of Rice University's residential colleges elected their 1981 1982 officers. Yesterday Weis College chose Bob can be me next year as President Leavitt elected Russ Coleman other Levitt

00:08:17.029 - 00:08:32.380

officers for next year will include Brian Kenna as vice president and Mark Bolam as secretary, Jay Herbert will be Levitt's Chief Justice Weiss College elected Rick Reedy as Social vice president and Jeff Page as secretary. It'll be a runoff for Executive Vice President between George Hall

00:08:32.390 - 00:08:54.039

and David Sebastian. The runoff is scheduled to take place Thursday. That's tomorrow with the election results for next year's college officers. I'm Bill Bray for K News. We went back and checked the number of ballots that we had and compared that to the number of signatures

00:08:54.049 - 00:09:12.690

that we had, we found a discrepancy of, I believe 72 votes in six of the colleges. We did not compare the numbers of ballots and signatures for Will Rice or for Hanson because they had college elections at the same time that we had the university elections.

00:09:12.700 - 00:09:31.900

So they had more signatures than ballots because there were people who voted in the college elections who did not vote in the university elections and the margin of 72 was sufficient to affect all of the erases that uh that I just mentioned. So because of that,

00:09:31.909 - 00:09:53.520

we felt it was unclear uh as to who the the winners actually were and it was recommended by the university court that we re hold those elections. Number one suspect was a black male in his early twenties with a medium afro very dark complexion and he

00:09:53.530 - 00:10:11.030

had several moles on his face. He was wearing a Columbia blue jacket and he was armed with a small caliber revolver. He had fine features, a slender face seemed very nervous and moved quickly. The second suspect was a black male also in his early twenties with

00:10:11.039 - 00:10:30.830

a short afro had very dark complexion. He was clean shaven, about 5, 10, had a heavy features and a heavy build. He did not talk. He was wearing a dark green or dark blue jumpsuit and that's about all we have on it right now. We've reported

00:10:30.840 - 00:10:47.849

it to the city of Houston robbery division and they're also aware of the facts. Uh The complainant had, you know, such a limited description of the people in Sino vehicles. So at this point, we're pretty well at a dead end, we increased the patrols in that

00:10:47.859 - 00:11:02.000

area. But I think it was a random thing. I doubt, you know, that the two will be back. They probably either had a car that they had left parked on Sunset or that they had left parked across the street at one of the churches. Although we

00:11:02.010 - 00:11:18.190

did talk with the yard men that were working in that area and none of them saw them at the churches. So we were more inclined to think that they left it parked on the city street. The rice campus police may have found the source behind this

00:11:18.200 - 00:11:33.000

recent rush of thefts, purses in billfolds were stolen from the library. Sewell Hall and Allen Center. The victims have included faculty, staff and students. According to campus police chief Mary Voss Winkle, a person would leave for a moment then would return to find something missing. The

00:11:33.010 - 00:11:46.309

campus police suspect that the incidents about six of them in January and February may have been related, two juveniles caught going through the baseball lockers fit the description. Some of the other victims have been able to give the Campos and as the theft have slacked off

00:11:46.320 - 00:12:04.979

since then, the police hope the source may be found. Nevertheless. M bowel suggests that people continue to take caution in leaving and carrying around valuables. This is Sharon Hughes with K news, a bicycle stolen in September from Jones member, Jeff Spradley has finally been returned to

00:12:04.989 - 00:12:23.179

its owner in a very strange way. First Spradley tells us how the bike was stolen. It was stolen last September from my off campus house, I had left it unlocked overnight and the following day, you know, it was gone and I reported it to the police,

00:12:23.500 - 00:12:38.130

but I didn't have the serial number. That's, that's a very key point in this whole story. About a month later, an unidentified man with a California address, sold the bike to a pawn shop near the University of Houston. The pawn shop later sold the bicycle to

00:12:38.140 - 00:12:52.349

boone's bike shop at a very good price. Spradley told Kare that both Boones and the pawn shop checked with police to see if the bike had been stolen. But of course, the serial number was still unknown. Well, that is until two weeks ago when Bradley found

00:12:52.359 - 00:13:06.679

his sales receipt and updated the police report, but by then it was too late. One day at Boons. Spradley heard about a bike similar to his that had, that had been recently sold to one of the residential colleges to Jones College, in fact, which happens to

00:13:06.690 - 00:13:19.780

be the college he's in from there on out getting his bike back was easy. The serial number of the new Jones bike matched the one on the sales receipt and Boones agreed to replace Jones's bike with a comparable one for K R U News. This is

00:13:19.789 - 00:13:37.159

Gary Mead. It was a beautiful day for a fair, not a cloud in the sky. It sounds like a dream, doesn't it? Well, it was a dream come true at the Shakespearean festival last Sunday. Every year, Baker College presents a tribute to Shakespeare with their feast

00:13:37.169 - 00:13:46.859

play and to get things off to a good start at the fair, which is at the beginning of the celebration week. I was at the fair and although there was a lack of food near the end, there certainly was not a lack of spirit or spirits.

00:13:47.150 - 00:14:00.799

The day was filled with cakewalks. Ladder climbs, colorful costumes hit kissing people being placed in stocks and dunking via the dunking machine. There was even one girl who didn't really want to get dunked but got dunked anyway, the afternoon was topped off with a slave auction.

00:14:00.820 - 00:14:14.780

One girl had two men that kept out bidding each other to buy her after the bidding reached $125. The two men carried it out with their swords, but neither one won. They both managed to kill each other. The afternoon continued with music and plenty of good

00:14:14.789 - 00:14:32.190

cheer. If you missed it, then you missed it. Indeed. But don't forget that. The next event in the lineup is the Baker College Shakespeare play. All's well, that ends well, that opens on the 17 for K News. I am. All right. You got that. And it's

00:14:32.200 - 00:14:46.729

a lovely day for a fair news. I'm, and I'm currently at the Shakespearean fair. Behind me right now is an auction for slaves. That's right. Slaves. A lot of stuff going on here at the Shakespearean fair this afternoon, got here a little bit late, but I

00:14:46.739 - 00:14:59.429

understand that things have been going absolutely fantastic. Much better than last year when it rained on them. But today not a single cloud in the sky. It's a beautiful day for a ferre and I'll be walking around the fairground today asking people exactly how they feel

00:14:59.440 - 00:15:25.659

about the f by now. They sound real enthused. Our first stop is the auction where the barter tries to get as much money as he can for his women. Very proud of. She'll tell you what it was like for hours, find some monkeys. So, in their

00:15:25.669 - 00:16:14.419

market, no, $15 going once, $15 going twice. I'll take it $16. The man is a free law major. I'll take her. One girl was so popular that the two men actually fought over her because they wouldn't stop bidding 121 25 $125. Good. That got it. Dinner.

00:16:21.169 - 00:16:56.429

Yeah, for, well, we got him in the door. They coming down, one gets stabbed in the front. Everyone thinks he's dead but he's not because as the second one turns to leave the first one stands up and stabs him in the back. So neither will the

00:16:56.440 - 00:17:26.780

girl. Of course, some people got dunked in the dunking machine, whether they wanted to or not. Yeah. Oh, yeah. High is it? Hey, I'm from K T R News. I was wondering, how are you enjoying the Shakespearean Fair? Pretty good. What have you been doing this

00:17:26.790 - 00:17:43.260

afternoon though? In the way of activities and all that? I've been observing the dunk. There was a dunk content dunking game where somebody throws a ball and tries to target and if they hit it, the guy is dunked. Did you, did you throw balls at anybody?

00:17:44.000 - 00:17:59.020

No, you didn't. You just watch. I was just a, a spectator. Well, thank you very much. Excuse me, sir. You're really decked out here. I am. You look very decked out to me. I maybe I shouldn't say decked out. Maybe I should say you have a

00:17:59.040 - 00:18:12.689

very nice outfit on. These are just everyday clothes just for you, maybe, but not for us. Oh, ok. How are you enjoying the fair? A lot of fun? That's good. I'm glad it's a lot of fun. It means you're having a lot of fun, right? Have

00:18:12.699 - 00:18:26.160

you been put in the stocks yet? No. As a matter of fact, I haven't. No. That's quite all right. After half an hour of renment, I finally was able to get myself out and talk to some people about the food I was just watching the slaves

00:18:26.170 - 00:18:40.479

being sold here. Well, to tell you the truth, I didn't have any money so I didn't buy any food, but it looks good from what I saw, the sausages and the sandwiches and whatever. Let me smell this piece of shrimp. It smells really good. I would

00:18:40.489 - 00:18:54.939

guess the food is really good today. I really can't give you an opinion. Having not eaten. Oh, sure. Half a shrimp. Ok. Here it is. Hm. Shrimp is good. Really good shrimp. Well, it's better than ok with what he said it was and, and actually I

00:18:54.949 - 00:19:14.910

didn't have to. Here's a cookie. Ok. I'll try. Mm. Good crunchy cookie. Ok. A piece of cheese is really good. This is all free. See, I'm not paying for this. That's good. It tastes even better this way. Right? Cheese cookies. No, I haven't had a cheese

00:19:14.920 - 00:19:32.060

cookies. Let me know how it taste a cheese cookie. Yes. That, that should be good. Just a second. Ok. Cheese cookie sandwich. In the midst of the busy day. I managed to corner Dr Kurtzman and ask him how the Baker play was going on. Have you

00:19:32.069 - 00:19:50.650

been to any of the play? Rehearsals off and on? How, how does that look that will be opening next Tuesday? And that play will be fantastic as always as always. Thank you very much, Mr Once again, Baker College has done a superb job on planning and

00:19:50.660 - 00:20:20.290

celebration here at the Shakespearean fair. The old Bard himself would be a little proud for K News. I am William Alison. $20. How about this? Lovely couple of black over here. $20. Welcome. All's well, that ends well opened Tuesday night in Baker Commons. The play was

00:20:20.300 - 00:20:37.680

very well done. The acting excellent. I especially enjoyed performances of Scott Solis as Paroles, Dennis Houston as the king of France, H C Clark as lavish, the clown. and of course, Diana Van Hozier, the lead role of Helena. The production standards were top notch and the

00:20:37.689 - 00:20:50.069

only fault that I could find was with the Bard himself. I didn't find this plot as compelling as many of his others. The crowd was a bit thin on opening night. I hope things pick up later on. It would be a crime for this great production

00:20:50.079 - 00:21:12.459

to go unappreciated for K tru News. I'm David Bunch. Well, Baker College has done it again. All the hard work that went into this year's Shakespearean production. All's well, that ends well, came shining through on opening night this past Tuesday. The play is about the trials

00:21:12.469 - 00:21:31.000

and tribulations of the lovely virtuous young maid Helena played by Diana Van Hozier. Helena is an orphan under the protection of a French countess played by Yvonne Leech and she's in love with Bertram. Robert Catterall, the young count who is her protector's son. She wants to

00:21:31.010 - 00:21:47.560

marry him. The problem. Helena is not also of noble birth. Bertram barely knows she exists. Does Helena succeed? Well, the title of the play gives that away. It's hard to know where to begin singing the praises for this production. In order for me to name the

00:21:47.569 - 00:22:05.939

players that delivered excellent performances. I would have to take the program and read the section entitled Cast of characters. I can't do that, but I will say that I especially enjoyed Scott Solas portrayal of Paroli H C Clark as lavish, the clown Dennis Houston as the

00:22:05.949 - 00:22:25.479

king of France. And of course, Diana Van Hoosier as Helena, I was especially impressed with the way the cast projected themselves and related to the audience. Congratulations to director John Bouchard. Special mention must also be made of the high production quality, especially the lighting and the

00:22:25.489 - 00:22:40.849

costumes. The only thing I found lacking on Tuesday night's opening of All's Well, that ends well was a large enough audience. I hope things pick up later in the week. If not, it means a lot of people are going to be missing out on a great

00:22:40.859 - 00:23:05.040

production for K T R News. I'm David Bunch Weiss College presents Pippin March 1921 and 26 28. The pseudo historical musical follows the son of Charlemagne as he searches for complete fulfillment. Renee Hodges Bertha and Connie Covert, Catherine steal the show. Christie and Chuck Mays is

00:23:05.050 - 00:23:25.030

the lead player and Pippin are enjoyable. Also, there's a live orchestra to accompany a chorus singing its heart out. Not your average sacker in musical. Pippin is well worth your time. I'm Debbie for K News. Join us, journey through our anecdotal review. These opening lines. Welcome

00:23:25.040 - 00:23:40.069

you to the pseudo historical Tale of Pippin, the Son of Charlemagne Weiss College is presenting the musical this weekend and next in their comments, the lead player Christy Mays leads us through the anecdotal story of Pippin Chuck Mays as he searches for complete fulfillment. Pippen tries

00:23:40.079 - 00:23:53.839

all the normal avenues, war, women, power, art the church and of course, the finale but can't seem to find what he wants. I won't reveal what he does find, but this show doesn't end quite like your normal sacar in musical. Christie and Chuck who are related

00:23:53.849 - 00:24:08.319

by the way, both amply fill their parts. Although their singing is a bit thin at times, Pippen's family, Jim Bader, Carol Valentine and Lance Duncan are broadly portrayed though the edible relationship between the queen and her son Lewis is a bit overstated. When the whole company

00:24:08.329 - 00:24:23.060

sings. It can really carry you away. Probably the most enjoyable number in the show is just no time at all where Pippen's grandma Bertha, Renee Hodge preaches the joys of fun and frolic while you still can. Even on opening night, the audience of 80 joined in

00:24:23.069 - 00:24:35.900

when Bertha asked them to do so. The best number in the second act is ordinary kind of woman sung by Connie Covert. I wish all the players in the show could have the projection and depth that Connie has in her voice grant guest. And Joe Guthridge

00:24:35.910 - 00:24:49.089

led a spirited orchestra to accompany the singers. Though they can get a little louder than the singers at times. A few wrong notes and skipped beats should clear up soon. The show Pippen was very popular on Broadway and ran for three years. I saw it there.

00:24:49.229 - 00:25:09.339

I was also very impressed with the quality of the Weis show. Pippen plays Thursday, Friday and Saturday, March 1920 21 26 27 28. For ticket information, you can call the Weiss College office at extension 3 2008. This is Debbie Greinke for K News. As their final

00:25:09.349 - 00:25:26.390

show of this season, the Rice players are presenting John Angus, Antigone. Angus version of the ancient story emphasizes the timeless conflict between pragmatism as embodied by Creon and youthful idealism. In this case, antigone the simple but imposing setting and the lack of a particular period for

00:25:26.400 - 00:25:46.140

the play demand and receive consistently strong performances from the principles and a highly polished technical production for success. That the show is indeed successful can be seen between now and Saturday each night at eight PM in Hammond Hall for Ktre News. I'm Tom Evans at eight

00:25:46.150 - 00:26:01.500

o'clock each evening until Saturday, March 28th. The Rice Players will present Antigone by Jean Han as adapted for the American stage by Louis Galanti. Antigone takes place in the aftermath of the civil war in thieves, in which Opus's two sons, Poly Nice and have killed each

00:26:01.510 - 00:26:18.329

other leaving their Uncle Creon to rule thieves. Creon has ordered that Poly Nice's body shall remain unburied and that anyone attempting to bury the corpse will be executed in defiance of this edict antigone sister of Polys and his fiance of Creon's son, Haman decides to bury

00:26:18.339 - 00:26:32.260

Poly Nice. She is caught and brought before Reon who tries to convince her to forsake her duty to her brother so that he will not be forced to execute her. The resulting dialogue between Reon and Antigone is the heart of the play. The conflict between Creon's

00:26:32.270 - 00:26:48.839

not inhumane, pragmatism and antigone's resolute idealism cannot be resolved. And although we know that Antigone is in the right. Creon's arguments are not easily ignored. Although Nancy Webb is not an obvious choice for the part of Antigone. She is nonetheless a good one. Her antigone is

00:26:48.849 - 00:27:04.939

a match for John. He's excellent portrayal of Creon. These two performances alone would make the show worthwhile, but we should not overlook M Christopher Boyer's chorus Boyer does a fine job of walking the line between an impartial and all knowing observer and an outspoken participant. Although

00:27:04.949 - 00:27:24.410

the other parts in this play are clearly secondary to the lead roles. Most are quite well played making this on the whole a fine production for K T R U News. I'm Tom Evans. Basically, it's a list of recommendations that we've come up with suggestions, things

00:27:24.420 - 00:27:35.439

that we'd like to see some things that we're already working on. Some things that we expect to see towards the end of this year, some things we expect to see at the beginning of next year and some things that we may not see for two or

00:27:35.449 - 00:27:59.589

three years, long term projects, the most economical we should go to a cafeteria style system but the students don't want to. And after having eaten at cafeteria style installations, I can, I I agree. Believe me, the quality of the purchased food at this university is not

00:27:59.689 - 00:28:24.800

the problem. It's the quality of the prepared food that is where it's hurting. Uh We buy, that's a top, but we buy top grade produce. And what happens to it in the kitchen is just really, it's pretty bad. Freshman week parties, Willie's pub and college TGIF

00:28:24.810 - 00:28:39.760

parties may all be affected by the Texas legislature's attempt to raise the drinking age to 19. The bill's enforcement amendment must be approved by the State Senate. Then it goes to Governor Clements who supports it. KT News talked to Proctor Eddie Holt about the possible effects

00:28:39.770 - 00:28:54.160

at rice. From the new law. Holt supervises alcoholic beverage consumption here at rice. If the drinking age is raised to 19, all freshman week activities will need to be dry. Since about 20 to 25% of incoming rice freshmen are 17 and most of the rest are

00:28:54.170 - 00:29:07.359

18. They could not drink during freshman week. Holt theorizes this new policy will not bother most freshmen who he says, quote, learn to drink after they get here. You can have a lot of fun even without alcohol. End quote. Perhaps only the upper class advisor and

00:29:07.369 - 00:29:22.099

college officers would miss freshman week drinking. An enforcement provision of the new law stipulates that anyone purchasing liquor must show proof of age else. The seller has violated the law. Holt says this means carding students at the door of Willie's pub and not admitting anyone under

00:29:22.109 - 00:29:35.895

age. There is no way to avoid this. An extra bartender will need to be on duty at the door and his wages plus probable reduced business volume might lead to a rise in prices. TGIF would also be affected. Every student who has served a drink at

00:29:35.905 - 00:29:49.310

a party would have to show proof of age. This would probably end the current standard of just setting a keg out in the quad on Friday afternoon. Essentially freshmen would be excluded from all parties where alcohol is served. 20 years ago, alcohol was prohibited on the

00:29:49.319 - 00:30:12.109

rice campus but in 1970 beer bust occurred on campus though not quite so openly as they do. Now, the law first dropping the drinking age to 18 21 was signed into law in 1974. This is Debbie Greinke for K News. My proposal was for the S

00:30:12.119 - 00:30:30.630

A to budget $350 for us to do a similar type um newspaper format of just students names and telephone numbers to be printed probably the second week of school if possible. Or as soon as the college secretaries have typed up their list, the thresher has a

00:30:30.640 - 00:30:47.060

machine that can do all the alphabetizing for us. So mostly all we'll have to do is arrange to get advertisers to pay for that cost. I contacted um Sam Houston State University to see what format their student directory was printed in. And they said that um

00:30:47.359 - 00:31:01.209

what they do is in one of the first issues of their student newspaper, they print names that are listing of students names and telephone numbers. And that way they're able to get out like a temporary listing in the first two weeks of school before their actual

00:31:01.219 - 00:31:06.770

printed directory comes with all, you know, administration numbers and department offices and all that kind of thing.
