She said that if the owners did not claim their bikes before the fall semester, the bikes would probably be given to the Student Senate to be sold.
Lawrence City Manager Buford Watson is one of two finalists for the vacant city manager's position in Washington, the mayor of that city said yesterday.
City Manager finalist for Texas post
Mayor Bill Neild said that Watson would interview with the Beaumont City Council tomorrow morning, and will work on a project to choose a choice for city manager that afternoon.
WATSON WAS one of five candidates that the council interviewed last week for the position. The candidates were chosen by a consulting firm hired by
the city to help in the selection process. Watson, who has been Lawrence city manager for 13 years, declined communication yesterday about Saturday's interview
Nield said the council was looking for an experienced city manager who was a "team player" and could work with city budgets.
Nield said the last city manager hired to Bassamunt was given 30 days to resign.
"What we are looking for is an individual who will work best with our
situation, and if we pick Mr. Watson we can negotiate a time to begin." he said.
Watson's annual salary as Lawrence city manager is $75,491. He also receives a monthly car allowance of $250 and $1,000 a year for life insurance.
Neild said that the Beaumont position was advertised at $60,000 a year, but that the salary was negotiable, depending on qualifications and experience. He said the city manager was also provided with a car and received health insurance and retirement benefits.

There are, alas, a few spoilspoints among us who remain unmoved by the recent Soviet-American Kansas Relays Peace Ploy. Upon discovering that Athletes United for Peace (AUP) paid part of the twenty-person Soviet contingent's air fare and the entire cost of the event, they ordered for meals, their spoilspoints understandably wonder what the affluent alcohols of amateur athletics will come up with next.
With Soviet-American relations now appreciably improved, is AUP next going to successfully use its powers of peaceful persuasion on Communist China? South Africa? Iran? Iraq? Libya? Uganda? or El Salvador? Perhaps, in the name of peace, AUP could somehow insure that each government with which it communicates keeps its would-be defectors at home as we already have quite a few native dissenters . . .uh . .negativists.
When Bob Swan, the likeable co-founder of AUP, notes with pleasure that "There were no demonstrations, and not one single negative question . . . asked" of the Soviet contingent, a few spoilors still seated in the stadium wonder if this expression of enthusiasm, which seems to consider the hefting of enraptured American youngsters by Soviet athletes more important than the killing of helpless Afghan youngsters by Soviet soldiers, isn't really a nauseaeting perversion of the positive thinking process.
