Grohman said there is a possibility the city would build new courts if funds were to become available. Castillo said the parks department is collecting more revenue each year but is receiving less in the budget. "The parks board should be getting more and more of the money," he said, "There is an enormous amount of need out there." The city is not likely to receive grants from agencies such as the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department through the Texas Outdoor Recreation Program to build tennis courts because of there are an usually large number of tennis courts in Comal. County. New Braunfels Tennis Association had applied for a grant to build a tennis complex at New Braun- fels High Sdhool on property which NBISO had agreed to donate; however, it now appears the grant was not awarded and the center will not be built hi the near future.

"We've been waiting a year and it doesen't look like it's going to happen," said association president John Fambrough today. He said the tennis association never used the city courts. "We never felt the city or parks department made an effort to maintain its courts. If we're going to have courts iti'the park, they ought to be properly maintained," said Fambrough. "I think it's a shame we won't have the courts." Continued from Page 1A emotional needs of M.D.

The principal said he allowed another senior to take a Scholastic Aptitude Test in his son's name last weekend at Texas University.

"The College Board needs to be sure they have some other method of identifying youngsters when they come in to take an exam," Gilliard said. The principal said his 17-year-old son, Reginald "Bo" Gilliard, 17, high school football star with college aspirations, is capable of passing the test by himself. Gilliard said he provided a fake student ID with a picture of the other dent. The ID was not questioned and; the other senior took the test, Gilliard said. The principal said he wrote the College Board early this week to cancel the test score.

"He just made a serious mistake," Caesar said. "He's all to pieces over this." Neither Gilliard nor Caesar would', identify the other senior. Dan Beshara, executive director of the southwest region of the College Board, would not talk about the Hempstead case specifically. Beshara admitted that despite a system of checks and balances at college. entry exams, the system is not foolproof and the College Board is open to suggestions for improvements.

Downtown Rotary conducting cholesterol screening Saturday Members of the Downtown Rotary Club will again conduct a blood cholesterol screening clinic. The service will be offered from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday in the pharmacy at HEB Food and Drugs, 843 W. San Antonio.

The cost of the screening will be $5. "This will be the fourth time we've provided this screening for area residents," said club president Mike Doherty, "The money raised by this program will go to support Rotary International's PolioPlus program, which is spending more than $120 million to vaccinate every child in the world against the crippling polio virus. "Each dollar in the program will buy enough to vaccinate four children. It's a wonderful way to help an outstanding world health program and keep up with your own cholesterol levels as well." Two screening machines will be in use during the event Saturday, which will avoid long lines and allow for test results in only a few minutes. "Past screenings have been very popular and well attended, but the large turnout slowed down our ability to get people their results while they waited," Doherty said.

"With two machines to do the screening, we'll be able to keep things moving smoothly and quickly." Eye Openers By Dr. Henry Hull For reservations and information call 629-6239.
