PG Correspondence Course
Aims At Broadening Views
By CLARK MUNROE
Some men with ideas of real
Value find themselves handicapped
in business because they are all
but inarticulate. The boss passes
them over in favor of less brainy
but more expressive individuals.
A&M’s post-graduate correspon
dence course which leads to a
•bachelor of philosophy degree will
help young professional men mar
shal their arguments and teach
them how to say them effectively.
Technicians will always be slaves
to the word-artists until the tech
nicians learn how to handle peo
ple, how to think logically outside
their own narrow fields, how to
talk and how to live. However
good one may be at those things
now, he can be better with prac
tice.
Here is how to get into the pro
gram:
After graduation, or a few
days before, you register with
the Post Graduate School and
are sent a complete outline for
the course you want to take. A
book list is included. For each
lesson there are questions to be
answered and sent in to be grad
ed. ne lesson a week is the nor
mal load.
At this rate you complete nine
credit hours each year, which
means you get your Ph.B. in about
four years. But four years is not
the time limit.
You may obtain up to 12 hours
toward your Ph.B. for work done
in residence, but not over six hours
may be transferred from another
school. These hours must not have
been used for a previous degree,
must deal with humanities and
must have been taken at junior
or senior level.
After all the lessons have been
‘Do You Know A&M?’
Tear out this blank and keep it handy for the entire week.
As each picture is printed in The Battalion, write your guess in
the appropriate space. Turn in this form to The Batt office, 201
Goodwin by 12 noon, Sunday.

completed, you take an exam
over the work covered at some
place near your home; the high
school for example. This is to
protect the value of your de
gree.
Among the courses offered is
geography. Environmental factors
such as space relationships, sur
face features, natural resources,
water bodies and atmospheric con
ditions are studied as the basic
foundations of national power.
Agriculture and mineral supplies
are vital to our industries, and
our industrialists and agricultur
ists must know how they fit into
the pattern and their relationships
with other members.
Already available is a World
Survey course. A course in
South American geography is
also being planned and prepared
to inform the PG students about
that southern continent which
will increasingly be leagued with
American commerce.
The economics department of
the school has prepared courses
dealing with labor problems, inter
national economics, analysis of the
South and a course dealing with
agriculture’s place in our economy.
Economics is not a study of the
way to run a business. It is con
cerned with broader problems re
lated to the way in which your
business deals with your neighbor’s
business.
Another article on the Post
graduate correspondence studies
will appear in a forthcoming issue
of The Battalion.

Requests Accepted
For Music Records
By A&M Library
Requests for records for the
music room can be made now, act
ing librarian Paul Ballance said
today.
The music room now has $450
worth of records, which range from
the Bach symphonies to Negro
spirituals. For the purchase of
additional records, the library has
set aside a sum of $900.
The Electrical Engineering De
partment has termed the record
player used in the music room the
best one of its kind available on
the market today.
From the many Beethoven rec
ords played, it seems that he is
the most popular composer, Ball
ance said.

Luckies’ fine tobacco puts you on the right level—the Lucky
level—to feel your level best, do your level best.
That’s why it’s important to remember that Lucky Strike
Means Fine Tobacco—mild, ripe, light tobacco that makes a
thoroughly enjoyable smoke. No wonder more independent tobacco
experts—auctioneers, buyers and warehousemen—smoke Lucky
Strike regularly than smoke the next two leading brands combined.
Light up a Lucky! Luckies’ fine tobacco picks you up when you’re
low, calms you down when you’re tense. So get on the Lucky level
where it’s fun to be alive. Get a carton and get started today!
