TWU
Student committee
DENTON — The TWU Student Government
Association plans to establish a student commit-
tee to parallel the 1985 Texas Legislature’s Select
Committee on Higher Education.
SGA President Mary Jo Peterman said the
committee will try harder to gather information
according to the format that the state committee
is using. She said she hopes that the research
done by students would aid the state committee
while representing students.
AN APPEARANCE by Robert Langs,
M.D., highlighted a workshop last week spon-
sored by the TWU Funding Council and the
Institute for Communication and Mental Health
Studies of Denton. Langs spoke on “Uncon-
scious Communication in Everyday Life." He
is the author of numerous articles and books
on psychoanalysis and therapy, and was featured
in an article in the Sept. 30 issue of Time
magazine.
UT-Austin
Non-discrimination
AUSTIN — The UT Student Senate passed
two resolutions this week. After a two-hour
discussion, the senate approved a recommenda-
tion to the UT Board of Regents that the phrase
“affectional and sexual orientation” be added
to the university’s statements on non-discrimina-
tion. This resolution would extend to employ-
ment as well as educational opportunity at the
university.
The senate plans to urge the Board of Regents
to create a permanent committee on minority
recruitment and retention.
ANTI-APARTHEID organizations on camp-
us are seeking to get South African bishop
Desmond Tutu to call the UT System Board of
Regents at its meeting Thursday and today in
Arlington, urging the UT System to divest itself
of South African companies.
EDWARD LEE Howard, a 1972 UT-Austin
graduate who quit his job and disappeared among
suspicions that he spied for the Soviets, had
close dealings with workers at a laboratory where
scientists perform top-secret weapons research,
an associate said last week.
Howard, 33, had been working as an analyst
with New Mexico’s Legislative Finance Com-
mittee until Sept. 22 when he fled. Charles
Baldonado, chief deputy district attorney in Santa
Fe, confirmed his office has issued a warrant
for Howard’s arrest, but said the office is not
actively looking for him.
TOW TRUCKS and Austin police cleared
more than 30 motorcycles from a popular student
parking area on several grassy medians last
week. Police have installed no-parking signs,
but officer Bill Ligon said the signs are usually
stolen within 48 hours.
Students park their motorcycles on the medi-
ans, which are city regulated, to avoid buying
UT parking permits, Ligon said.
UT-Arlington
Student death
ARLINGTON — A UTA marketing senior
was shot to death last week outside his West-
wood Village apartment. Mark Lynn Link, 28,
was found lying in a courtyard area.
A suspect, a junior journalism major, was
held at gunpoint by a third man, Don Massey,
49, until police armed. The student was released
two days later on his own recognizance, police
said. No charges have been filed. The student's
claim of self-defense may have been a major
factor in the decision to release him, said
Arlington police spokesman Jim Willett.
IN ADDITION to hearing a 30-minute
speech by the Steve Biko Committee, a UT-
Austin anti-apartheid organization, urging UT
to divest itself of all companies in South Africa,
the UT System Board of Regents hear a proposal
for $39.9 million to build a new engineering
building and renovate existing buildings on the
UTA campus.
Texas A*M
Salary survey
COLLEGE STATION — The Texas A&M
Battalion conducted a study of national averages
of salaries for college graduates and found that
overall, salaries of A&M graduates were higher
than those of other schools. The newspaper used
as sources surveys from Michigan State Univer-
sity and the Council of College Placement
Centers. The surveys consisted of information
from 160 schools nationwide, and were com-
pared with A&M Placement Center results.
THE UNIVERSITY police began strict
enforcement of bicycle parking policies this
week. Bob Wiatt, director of security and traffic,
said the police will cut security chains and
impound bicycles that are parked illegally.
ALTHOUGH STATION KAMU-TV dis-
solved its news department last summer because
of budget cuts, communications department head
Edward J. Smith said the overall education for
journalism students as television reporters has
improved.
Now, instead of working with the production
professionals at the KAMU studio, journalism
students work with journalism professors and
minicameras in the field instead of in a broadcast
studio, Smith said.
Texas Tech
NCAA probe
LUBBOCK — Texas Tech Athletic Director
T. Jones has sent a letter to the NCAA request-
ing that allegations by senior Chris Taylor be
investigated. Pryor told the San Antonio Press
News of illegal recruitment practices he experi-

hotel accommodations.

THE SEVEN supreme court justices of the
Tech Student Association were sworn into office
last week, reviving a branch of the SA that
had been dead for four years.
The court, made up of people who are not
members of the SA, will advise the senate of
the constitutionality of legislation. Upon request,
the supreme court may advise senators of the
constitutionality of proposed bills, said Michael
Massey, chief justice of the court.
SEVERAL TECH students who are illegally
in possession of a long-distance access number
have charged about $2,000 in unpaid telephone
calls to Comtel, a long-distance telephone
company from Houston, Comtel officials said.
A Tech student acquired the number from
his parents in Houston and gave that number
to a friend, who in turn passed the number on
to several other students, said Sidney Croft,
vice president of Comtel.
Croft said the unpaid bills constitute theft
by wire. He said that if someone has made
calls worth more than $75, he could be charged
with a felony.
TECH RESEARCHERS announced last
week the discovery of test-tube cotton.
Cotton fibers, without using any other part
of the plant, have been produced from single
cells in Tech laboratories in the department of
biological sciences.
JURORS RETURNED a verdict last week
in favor of Tech and two top Tech officials in
a federal lawsuit filed by a former chairwoman
in the College of Home Economics.
The lawsuit, filed by Cora McKown, alleged
her civil and constitutional rights were violated
when she was dismissed from the chairmanship
on June 7, 1983, without due process of law.
AFTER A seven-year career at Tech. Don
Rolfe, director of internal audit services, has
resigned. He said he left to continue his educa-
tion.
Rolfe plans to attend the University of Hous-
ton to finish his graduate work in business
adminstration.
THE COMMITTEE studying Tech’s com-
puter system will not recommend that the
university replace the IBM mainframe in use,
said Donald Haragan, interim vice president
for academic affairs.

Corp. mainframe be placed in the College of
Engineering, and two VAX 8600 mainframes
be placed in the colleges of arts and sciences
and business administration.

Disappearance
FORT WORTH — The TCU Daily Skiff
featured a memorial article this week marking
the one-year anniversary of the first woman to
be kidnapped and killed in a string of 11 murders
of Fort Worth women. The trial for lone suspect
Michael Wayne Goodin, 19, begins at the end
of this month.
Fort Worth detectives are reminding women
to remain alert even though the suspect is in
custody.
STARTING QUARTERBACK Scott Ank-
rom is out for the season because of an ankle
injury. Freshman David Rascoe will repace him.
Robert Padgett of the Daily Skiff said Rascoe
is better at passing than Ankrom, but that
Ankrom was the fastest runner on the team.
SMU
Divestiture
DALLAS — Several campus organizations
are questioning SMU investments in South
Africa companies as a part of National Anti-
apartheid Day today. Earlier this week, the
organizations rallied against the $3.3 million
of SMU funds that are invested in South African
companies. Students dug several graves on
campus to represent people who had been killed
in South Africa.
A president's task force has been formulated
to analyze the issue.
Three Mile Island reactor starts up again
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — The
Unit 1 reactor at Three Mile Island
reached 15 percent power Wednesday
and began generating electricity for the
first time since the nuclear fuel melted
in a 1979 accident at adjacent Unit 2,
the plant's operator said.
The unit’s turbine-generator went
“on-line” at 4:02 a.m., when it was
connected to a regional power grid
serving Pennsylvania, Maryland and
New Jersey, said GPU Nuclear Corp.
At that point, Unit 1 was producing
enough power for 50,000 to 60,000
households.
“This is a proud day for the staff of
TMI-1, GPU Nuclear and the entire
GPU system. Unit 1 has returned to its
vital role of producing lower-cost elec-
tricity for GPU’s customers,” said Philip
Clark, GPU Nuclear’s president and mercial nuclear accident,
chief executive officer. Operators completed testing at 3 per-
Unit 1 was restarted last Thursday, cent power Monday and brought the
six years after the nation’s worst com- reactor up to 15 percent thermal power.
