SSFAC final budget recommendations
to be sent to University President
Arleigh B. Templeton for approval
Melanie Matthews never had the desire for all the pomp of
pageantry. But she got it anyway, and still the sparkling
crown, the scepter and the flowers do not seem important.
Not that she isn’t proud of becoming the new Miss Black
El Paso, but the 19-year-old freshman views her position as
being more than “just a beauty queen.”
First of all, she says, “I don’t like beauty pageants. I
entered this one because I thought it would be a good way to
get involved with the community.”
The speech and hearing therapy major, along with 19 other
women, vied for points in talent, personal interviews with
judges and swimsuit and evening gown competition during
the two-day event Feb. 10 and 11 in the Chamizal National
Monument Theater.
Ms. Matthews, an Eastwood High School graduate, says her
strong points were earned in interviewing and for her dance
routine to “Momma,” a tune done by jazz musician Ronnie
Laws.
“I didn’t win on my looks alone because I have a fairly
good head on my shoulders,” she says.
Although various pageant winners often tend to downplay
the women’s movement (“I’m not a women’s libber, but....”),
Ms. Matthews is not afraid to voice her beliefs.
Concerning the Equal Rights Amendment-one of the
questions asked during her interview-she says, “I am
strongly in favor of the ERA. It’s necessary to have an
amendment for just about everything to afford equal
protection. Look at the Voting Rights Act-today it seems

a proposal advocated by Wynn successfully avoiding a funding

odd that at one time so many people were against it.” She
adds, “I hope there will also be a day that being against the
ERA will seem foolish to everyone, too.”
Ms. Matthews also sees the political involvement of women
as a great asset to the black woman.
“In the women’s movement, there is no room for racial
prejudice because we aren’t just working for one group, we’re
working for all women-majorities and minorities.”
Regarding the Allen Bakke case, also a question asked of
her by pageant judges, Ms. Matthews says, “There is no such
thing as reverse discrimination. As a minority, I feel there is
still a lot of prejudice among people, so for that reason, I am
very much in favor of the quota system to give everyone an
equal chance at what they want to do.”
After graduating from UT El Paso, Ms. Matthews expects
to attend graduate school and later work as a speech
pathologist to aid the mentally retarded and stroke victims.
Meanwhile, during her reign as Miss Black El Paso, “I’m
going to represent the community the best I can.” And in
mid-June, when the pageant winner will compete for the Miss
Black Texas title in Houston, she says, “I’m just going to give
it all I’ve got and hope for the best.”

Referring to the center’s ties
to the drama and speech
department, the dean warned
committee members, “We’re
opening the door to fund other
departments that do service to
students on the side.”
But, other members, citing a
warning from Harold Williams,
Speech and Hearing Center
director, that the program’s free
service may stop if additional
funds are not forthcoming,
advocated that some funding
might impede a service charge.
“I think that’s blackmail
myself,” Avila told committee
members, adding, “I don’t think
he needs the money. I think he’s
just a good hustler.”

There IS a difference!!!
David Becerra, Student
Association internal affairs vice
president at a Feb. 10 meeting,
held intercollegiate athletics to
a 2.5 percent increase and
redistributed extra funds to
other service programs.
Although Becerra said he was
pleased with the unity exhibited
by fellow committee members
toward his proposal, the
distribution of the added funds
ran into minor tangles.
For example, the committee
divided itself concerning a
$4,000 funding request from
the Speech and Hearing Center.
Jose Avila, dean of students
and chairman of the SSFAC,
argued against funding the
center because, he said, “It is

$425 M. $326
$140 ea. $99

$75 ca. $51
increase for that program this
year.
Although large balances,
Anderson explained, usually are
limited to those programs that
require protection against
unforseen expenses, the
president’s assistant urged
committee members to question -
sizable balances in programs
with low operating costs.
And this point later was
revived, when during discussions
concerning intramurals
allocations Judy Solis, assistant
dean of students, pointed out
that the program had failed to
spend all of its allocated funds.
Citing the “dramatic
increase” in funding to the
intramural program during the
past three years, Anderson told
the committee, “There has to be
a leveling point so they can
consolidate and determine
whether or not they’re really
using the money.”
Becerra, however, defended

president allocating a “token

"one-year allocation pending.”
The committee also agreed to
recommend a study that would
determine the center’s actual
services to students and
requested that the center
publicize those services.
In an attempt to undo
another funding knot
concerning departmental ties to
student services, the committee
requested that the Student
