Researchers find
lifestyle affects
energy consumption
An energy study conducted by two
architectural researchers at Texas
A&M University has found that living
habits - as much as construction
features - account for significant dif-
ferences in residential energy consum-
ption.
Energy-use data collected over d 13-
month period showed that some houses
used up to five times as much energy as
others of similar size and construction,
said Larry Degelman, a professor of
architecture and building construction
and one of the researchers.
"The largest variability in energy use
was unexplained," he said. "This unex-
plained variance was assumed to be
due to lifestyle. Energy use really has a
lot more to do with lifestyle than the
construction features that we studied."

Staring at the mangled remains
of his 1968 Buick I., hbre this
morning, Charles E. "Chuck" Hill
lamented, "If I'd had !i5 last night,
I'd been with them."
Just hours before, three of Hill's
co-workers and two others had
their lives snuffed out as the Buick
and a 1964 Chevrolet Bel Air
crashed head-on on FM 2329
(Pickins Spur ); another co-worker
remains in critical condition.

Malakoff, driver of the Chevrolet
and a passenger, Carl Lee Kirk-

"My wife was feeling a little low

hearing about the wreck this
morning, she sure was glad I came

Fight preceded accident
As bizzare as the accident itself
were prior incidents involving
some of the occupants.
From what Hill and Chief Briggs
disclosed, after leaving the rig and
dropping off Hill, the four oil field
workers went to Caney City to
"celebrate."
