"My biggest concern is that I
don't disappoint you," State Senator
Bob Glasgow told over 430 sup-
porters at a Glasgow Appreciation
Dinner Thursday, Nov. 20. "I hope
that I have the ability, in the short
time that I am State Senator, to make
Erath County and District 22 a bet-
ter place to live."
Currently in his third term, the
senator from Stephenville, was the
guest of honor at a dinner hosted by
the Friends of Bob Glasgow Com-
mittee on the campus of Tarleton
State University.
The event recognized the work
done by Glasgow during his term as
senator, and more specifically for his
fight to protect higher education
from recent budgetary cuts.
Comparing the cuts in higher
education to cutting the money spent
on feeding children in a home
budget, Glasgow pledged continued
support for public and higher educa-
tion programs.
Dignitaries from the Texas
Legislature and from area univer-
sities and colleges participated in the
evening, bringing best wishes from
all phases of the Senator's
constituents.
Dr. Barry B. Thompson, Presi-
dent of Tarleton, served as master of
ceremonies for the program which
followed a barbecue dinner. Dr.
E.W. Mince, President of Weather-
ford College, and Walt Parker, Vice
President for External Affairs at
North Texas State University took
part in the program, along with
Representative Bruce Gibson of
Godley, Senator Ray Farabee of
Wichita Falls and Senator John
Montford of Lubbock.
Crediting Glasgow with doing
more than anyone else in the Texas
Legislature to ease the cuts on higher
education, Representative Gibson
said the District 22 Senator had
created a reputation for himself in
the Senate. "He is a thrill to work
with," said Gibson, "and no one is
more deserving of this sort of
honor.''
Parker said Glasgow was a
"dominant leader in the fight for
education in the special sessions."
He said that the Senator had restored
over $30 million to the higher educa-
tion budget preventing a loss that
"would have put higher education
back 20 years."
Two of Glasgow's peers in the
Senate attended the dinner and prais-
ed his work. "I have served with
Bob for a number of years and have
seen the difference he can make,"
said Farabee. "He has common
sense and a real feeling for the
smaller four-year colleges and junior
colleges. His dedication has made a
difference in higher education in the
State of Texas."
Montford, the District 28 Senator,
said, "We are at a time in Texas
when we must insist our leaders
show great vision. We have a great
legacy and we must see that our
granchildren enjoy this great state.
Glasgow is serious about his com-
mitments to the district and he is an
unselfish, dedicated public servant."
Recalling his past seven years in
the Senate, Glasgow said his biggest
regret was the sacrifices made by his
family because of his frequent,
absences.
"You sometimes get discourag-
ed," said Glasgow, referring to the
critic'?rn always aimed at
Legislators. "But you meet a lot of
people and make a lot of
friends...and events like this sure
help."
Glasgow's wife, Deanna, was
presented with a gold necklace at the
conclusion of the banquet and the
Senator was given a shotgun.
United Way nears end of its drive
BY BONNIE ENCINAS
Contributor
The Tarleton Drive for United
Way is nearing the end of its fund
raising campaign. The drive began
Nov. 11 and ends Dec. 5.
Each year United Way holds a ma-
jor fund raising campaign to raise
revenues which are distributed for
community needs. Drive Chairman
is Billy Markham and Chairman for
the Stephenville drive is Leon
Manly.
Tarleton holds a separate com-
paign, this year under the direction
of Doctor Ruby Nell Ruth, Chair-
man. Although payroll deductions
are not made by A&M, all faculty
and staff are issued pledge cards and
asked to leave donations and/or
pledges with the cashier.
Students are also invited to par-
ticipate. Donations may be made at
any time of the year as well as dur-
ing the official campaign. Contribu-
tions may be made in cash or by
check although contributors are ask-
ed to write checks out to the Tarleton
Drive as Tarleton receives credit on-
ly for those contributions made
directly to its chapter. If desired a
contributor may specify to which
agency a donation will be given to.
United Way is centered locally,
consisting of 25 board members of
local businessmen. Those organiza-
tions which receive funds submit a
bid to cover their budget needs for
the next year. Funds are distributed
according to the amount available
from those bids received. A short-
fall is generally equally distributed
throughout recipients;
Community groups which benefit
from funding include Senior Citizen
groups, youth organizations such as
Scouts, 4-H, and the Stephenville
Teen Council: and the Association
for,the Mentally Retarded. United
Way funds are also used to combat
alcohol and drug addiction, for local
humane societies, the Red Cross,
and the Salvation Army.
