Features Stockwell to speak •Former CIA agent tells 'What's really going on' The Collegian • April 17, 1991 By Ed Bove Collegian Staff Writer Former Central Intelligence Agency agent John Stockwell will reveal "What/5 really going on behind the scenes," tonight in the Satellite Student Union. Stockwell worked for the CIA for 12 years but left the agency in December 1976 after a "change of conscience." He had been growing disheart¬ ened with alleged human rights relations by the agency and some of the actions the agency took in dismantling foreign governments. Stockwell has written several books denouncing and discredit¬ ing the CIA since his departure. His literary ventures include "In Search Of Enemies [published in 1978]* and the recently published "The Praetorian Guard: The U.S. Role in the New World Security Complex" Stockwell collaborated with Bert Holtje in 1982 for the "Photographer's Business Hand¬ book," and wrote Tied Sunset," also released in 1982. During his stint with the CIA, Stockwell was the task force chief for Angola and helped direct Am erican support for the National Front for the Liberation of Angola (FNLA) and the National Union for the Total Liberation of Angola (UNTTA). Tickets for the lecture, begin- tiingat7p.m.,are$2atthedoorfor students and S3 at the door for non-students. Stockwell will also be lecturing today at noon at Fresno City Col¬ lege. Admission to that lecture is free. Budget: Senators speak out in overwhelming vote Continued from page 1 sound judgement in basing its budgetproposal on an annualized figureof 18,700 paid memberships. "The year ahead is filled with a number of fiscal uncertainties tha t suggest restraint," Corcoran said. "In short I urge you [the ASH to exercise reasonable caution as you approach the finalization of the budget." "I think we should act as re¬ sponsibly as possible," said Scott Walker, gallery member. The issue was whether to over¬ estimate the enrollment figures and risk ending up with a budget d i.-i i di, irv wtffc h - 'as* money would either be pulled from capital re¬ serves or from individual line items, or to underestimate the enrollment figures resulting in a surplus of funds that would go to the unallocated funds account If a budget of 20,000 paid mem¬ berships were approved and the next administration sees only 18,700 paid memberships then that would createa $16^00deficit Next year's ASI would have the author¬ ity to reduce line items to make up for thc deficit or they could pull the money from capital reserves. "1 would be very cautious of that" Castelli said. "I urge this override of the veto to pass."

A transition form a "petroleum economy" to a "hydrogen econ¬ omy" would funcuunerrtally re¬ solve many of the most serious environmental problems related to sewage disposal, global warm¬ ing, acid rain, oil spills and urban air pollution, according to Braun.

"I am in kind of a dilemma," said Genoveva Islas, senator. "1 would like to see the students get the money they need but I also have to be responsible. I know everybody here wants to be re¬ sponsible." "1 think this is a big political playoff right before elections," said Mike Garrett, senator. "If we are over enrolled, then that's that much more for the unallocated ■budget Ithat tbe clubs and organi¬ zations can use.] If you want something bad enough, you'll find ways to get it." "I think weneedtooverride this veto and I'm not running in the upcoming election," Womack said. "1 want to be elected [in the upcoming election I but if this [ voting tooverride the veto] means I am going to lose votes then I'm sorry," said Ralph Avitia, senator. "If this costs me the election then so be it." "I thought we did a fair job," said Martha Velasco, senator and member of the Finance and Budget committee. "It is unfortunate that everybody cannot get all the money that they wanted. We did our best and we tried to be as fair to everyone as we can possibly be." "If there was a problem with the budget it should be within Finance and Budget and not on the senate floor," said Joe Ortiz, gallery member. "Don't blame Finance and Budget, don't blame the sen¬ ate. "We are adults, we are not chil¬ dren," he said. 'The people on this senate live in a dream world; the students in this room, they don't care," said Caren Thomas, senator.
