C., Thursday and Friday to make a progress report on A&M’s civil defense training program. Attending the conference will be civil defense directors from var ious states and other representa tives from land grant colleges and universities where civil defense training is offered, Dr. Bodine added.

A&M’s training schedule calls for 24 conferences for county and city officials and 10 schools to qualify persons to serve as shelter manager instructors. “We will be in Washington for an analysis of what has been accomplished and for a guide for future instruction,” Bodine said. ★ ★ ★ Dr. Aylmer H.

Executive Course Gets National Men Recognized authorities from throughout the nation are among the 32 faculty members named for the twelfth annual Executive De velopment Course to be held Jan. 26-Feb. 14 on the campus, W. E. Eckles, director announced. Most of the faculty members will make one or two presenta tions during the program. About 50 executives in business and industrial firms and govern ment in Texas and eight other states are expected to attend, I^POiiCamptts ^ (By the Author of “Rally Round the Flag, Boys!" and, “Barefoot Boy With Cheek.”) with Max § tollman A GUIDE FOR THE GUIDERS One of the most interesting academic theories advanced in many a long year has recently been advanced by that interest ing academic theorist, E. Pluribus Ewbank, Ph. D. who holds the chair of Interesting Academic Theories at the St. Louis •College of Footwear and Educational Philosophy. Dr. Ewbank said in the last issue of the learned journal, the Mount Rushmare Guide to Scholastic Advancement and Presidents’ Heads, that we might be approaching the whole problem of student guidance from the wrong direction. Dr. Ewbank, a highly respected pedagogue and a lifelong smoker of Marlboro Cigarettes, (I mention Marlboros for two reasons: first, to indicate the scope of Dr. Ewbank’s brainpower. Out of all the dozens of brands of cigarettes available today, Dr. Ewbank has had the wit and taste to pick the one with the most flavorful flavor, the most filtracious filter, the most soft soft pack, the most flip top Flip Top box: I refer, of course, to Marlboro. The second reason I mention Marlboro is that I get paid to mention Marlboro in this column, and the laborer, you will agree, is worthy of his hire.) But I digress. To return to Dr. Ewbank’s interesting theory, he contends that most college guidance counselors are inclined to take the easy way out. That is to say, if a student’s aptitude tests show a talent for, let us say, math, the student is encour aged to major in math. If his tests show an aptitude for poetry, he is directed toward poetry. And so forth. £//d6e All wrong, says Dr. Ewbank. The great breakthroughs, the startling innovations in, let us say, math, are likely to be made not by mathematicians—whose thinking, after all, is constrained by rigid rules and principles—but by mavericks, by noncon formists, by intuitors who refuse to fall into the rut of reason. For instance, set a poet to studying math. He will bring a fresh, unfettered mind to the subject, just as a mathematician will bring the same kind of approach to poetry. By way of evidence, Dr. Ewbank cites the case of Cipher Binary, a youth who entered college with brilliant test scores in physics, chemistry, and the calculus. But Dr. Ewbank forced young Cipher to major in poetry. The results were astonishing. Here, for example, is young Cipher’s latest poem, a love lyric of such originality that Lord Byron springs to mind. I quote: He was her logarithm, She was his cosine. Taking their dog with ’em. They hastened to go sign Marriage vows which they joyfully shared, And wooed and wed and pi r squared. Similarly, when a freshman girl named Elizabeth Barrett Sigafoos came to Dr. Ewbank to seek guidance, he ignored the fact that she had won the Pulitzer prize for poetry when she was eight, and insisted she major in mathematics. Again the results were startling. Miss Sigafoos has set the entire math department agog by flatly refusing to believe that six times nine is 54. If Miss Sigafoos is correct, we will have to re-think the entire science of numbers and—who knows?—possibly open up vistas as yet undreamed of in mathematics. Dr. Ewbank’s unorthodox approach to student guidance has so impressed his employers that he was fired last week. He is currently selling beaded moccasins at Mount Rushmore. © 1964 Max Sbulmaa We, the makers of Marlboro, know only one kind of guid ance: the direct route to greater smoking pleasure. Try a fine, filtered Marlboro, available wherever cigarettes are sold in all fifty states of the Union. Eckles, an assistant professor of business administration, said. “The course is unique in that the participants not only hear recognized authorities discuss sub jects vital to good management, but cooperate to learn through discussions and personal inter change of ideas with these ex perienced executives,” Eckles said. The A&M program is among the oldest and best accepted in the nation. Its goal is to offer to selected executives the opportunity of participating in a professional management educational program with the aim of upgrading and broadening knowledge and abili ties Among the recognized authori ties to be heard during the course is Edward J. Green of Pittsburgh, Pa. He is a regular lecturer of the American Management As sociation and is vice president of planning and marketing for the Westinghouse Air Brake Co. THE BATTALION Thursday, January 23, 1964 College Station, Texas Page 3 Dewey Files For Representative B. H. DEWEY, JR., former State Representative announces his can didacy for the office of State Representative from the 28th Dis trict (Brazos County). Dewey, active in Democratic Party affairs on the county and state levels, paid his filing fee to the Brazos County Democratic Executive Committee. A member of the Legislature from 1953 through 1962, Dewey is one of five members from Texas now serving on the Southern Re gional Education Board. “Education in Texas faces a crisis in 1965,” said Dewey. I want to represent Brazos County in the Legislature during this critical time.” “In 1965, Texas and Brazos County will be at the crossroad in Education. Many decisions which will affect our county will be made by the next Legislature. I want to participate in these decisions.” Dewey said the crisis in educa tion will be one of the main cam paign issues. Other issues to be discussed will be the Texas Mari time Academy, appropriations, Taxes, capital punishment, equal rights for women and the proposed investigation of the Texas Agricul tural Extension Service and the Texas Agricultural Experiment Stations. Dewey was graduated from Bry an High School, Texas A&M Uni versity, and the University of Tex as Law School. A veteran of World War II, Dewey served in the Philippines. A practicing Attorney in Bryan since 1941, Dewey is active in civic, political, religious and frater nal organizations in the county. He was an alternate delegate to the 1948 National Democratic Con vention in Philadelphia, Pa. He has been precinct chairman, secre tary and treasurer and attorney for the Brazos County Democratic Executive Committee, and in 1963 was chairman of the Brazos Coun ty Democrats, an organization formed to promote the Democratic Party in the county. Dewey said he would support and work for the Democratic ticket in 1964 “just as I always have”. Dewey is a member of the Car negie Library Board, the Brazos County and Texas State Bar Assoc iations, Veterans of Foreign Wars, The American Legion, Bryan Lions Club. “I will be available to talk to any group anytime, anywhere, to discuss the issues of the cam paign”, said Dewey. “I earnestly solicit the influence, support and vote of all voters in the County”.
