By CONRAD TWIGGINS None of the present candidates for veteran editor W capable? of doing the job justice. Consequently, I ask all the quali fied voters in school to write my name in on the ballot. If I am elected, eye will straighten this place up, and do it right. If I am elected, I promise tq re turn the Ban to its old three-times a week schedule. None of this everyday stuff. I am unalterably opposed' to printing girls pictures in the Batt. A&M is a MAN’s school and should remain as such. When I am editor, the Batt will not even mention females. My platform for election is based on a return tq the norm alcy of 1939, In those good old days this was a real school and was untainted by the present day "culture.” It will be that way again if 1 carry the field. My editorial policy wdll have as its goal to restrict the scholarship honor societies to members of. the cavalry contingent only. The present regime, and the as pirant candidates go too far afield in finding news to print. I am not interested in anything that hap pens farther away than Wellborn, Snook, or Brenham. All this na tional news is un-Texan and will be banrted from the paper If I am chosen editor. ! . Of a purely local nature is: the 1 pie situation — I favor larger j slices of pie in all restaurants. Further, 1 am campaigning on a ! program of ’‘shorter skirts and longer Shoulder straps.” Now, I should like to deal in some personalities no that the voting public can see for itself ii i ; that I am the beet qualified for the editorship. Kenneth B|m(, one of the other candidates, wias so the story goes, a “gray-market speculator.” Na turally and logically, sue!? a man is not the sort Ranted as editor of the Batt. He is but a front for the vested interests Art Howard, ;a second candidate for the lofty position, is a tool of the athletic department. His form er job as spprts editor is conclu sive proof of tlhis shameful rela tionship. Bill Billingsley, the third avow ed seeker of the editorship; has, and I am sojry to say it but the truth must ! b^ known, political leanings that ntake him the favor ite candidate! of the Texas Com munist Partyj and Joe Stalin. With my own ears I once heard him say that our pofjtajl system 'is social istic. Anyone' who would say such irresponsible - and nasty things about one of ojur most democratic Institutions shquld never be editor of the Batt.! i ; I have volbnteercd to take this added burden on my shoul ders purely from altruistic mo tives. I did not choose to run, but when oUe?s duty Ls so plain ly evident,: One cannot shirk just because it’s easier. However, if will require the help of all you good Twiggins troop ers, I call upbii ray good friends-r- the two percenters, the day dodg ers (if any remain), and anti-cul- turists—to sjee that I’m elected. We must rally around the Twig gins flag HRl'K strong in order to remove tin’ CuRure menace. Be sure and vofe, VOTE, VOTE!
