handed to Champion, who lofted Rote passed to Champfon, who r
Milam on the Notre Dame 40.
Mike Swlstowl ran him out of
hounds. In four plunges Rote had
to give up on the one-foot line.
Wllliama, Take* Chance
Williams tried a daring play to
pt out of trouble. He stood deep
Jn th$, end lone to pass, but Pat
Knight Of’the Methodist* rushed
him and the ball wobbled untouch
ed. Officials first ruled It a safety
then changed and made It an in
complete pass.
The Irish kicked out but the nekt
time they got the ball—this time
on a pass interception by Bill
Gay on the Methodist 34—they
scored from the Southern Metho
dist 3B, Williams paksed over the
goal line. Milam, Bob Folsom and
Bill Richards batted at the ball
—and batted it squarely intorthe
hands of Ernie Zalejski for a Notre
Dame touchdown. Oracko missed
the conversion. , .
The half ended 13-0.
Midway of the third period the
mighty Rote led a paralyzing 61-
yard touchdown drive. Sticking to
the ground, the Methodists , rolled
easily to the score with Rote
making 44 of the yards. He tallied
from thf Notre Dame three. Bill
Sullivan converted. ! i
Irish Come Back.
But Notre Dame thundered back
:o draw 13 points away again. Jim
1 Mutscheller intercepted a Rote
pass on the SMU 22 and a pass
from Williams to Hart, who later-
aled to Spaniel, carried to the 12.
Barrett, John Landry and Hart
powered the four and Barrett
crunched over, Oracko kicked the
point. ; J" • • \ .1
Southern Methodist then got
Rote passed to Champion, who nm
to the Notre Dame one, and Rote
plowed center for the score. Again
Sullivan converted; > The final
Methodint touchdown came after
n dipping penalty net Notre Dome
back to the one and on the kick-
out Rlchartla ran to the Notre
Dame 14. In three bloat* Rote got
the score. Groom bounced through
to block Sullivan’* try for point
and the count wa* tied.
Then came the Notre Dgme
drive for the winning touchdown.

the Brazos River. Did the Bay
lor paper condemn their students,
or did the Rice paper denounce
theirs? No! Then, by what right
did the Batt attack these two
men? r \
All of this leads up to one thing,
know that many of the persons
in student positions were put there
by student vote. I wish to know if
we, the students at A&M, have the
right to recall officials or others
elected by a public vote, as prac
ticed in many governments through
out this democratic nation. I also
wish to know how a man gets to
be on the Editorial Committee of
the Bait You see, I believe that
many of the other Aggies in this
college will agree with me when I
say that there is one person on
that committee who should be re
moved.
In closing, I wish to say that I
am requesting that my name be
withheld from this letter, but not
because I am ashamed of this ar
ticle, but because I am a senior now
and I wish to graduate. If a certain
man on the Editorial Committee
wrote this letter, please tell him
that I’ll be glad to talk to him
about it the day after I graduate.
Until then, I prefer to remain un
known to many persons, especially
him.

Eds. Note—A sub-committee of
the Student Life Committee was
appointed to deal with yell prac
tice problems. The Battalion also
feels this group should have been
consulted earlier in the yell lead
er’s case, but does not know why It
was not.
The faculty panel obviously felt
the case's final phases were serious
enough to place it under their
jurisdiction, which precludes the
power i»f the Student Life Commit
tee.
We do not know why joke tell
ing wasn't condemned in the past,
or if It wasn’t. Our objection is to
obscene jokes at yell practice, on
the theory that they offend our
visitor* and contribute little to
building school spirit.
We don’t believe any of our
staff members are fighting the
students. Our fights this year
have been with individual and
group student actions which we
honestly felt were damaging to
the school and the students in
the school. The man who Wrote
the editorial condemning joke
telling appeared as the yell
leader’s defense counsel at his
panel. t
We know nothing about any ad
ministration members with yell
leader aspirations. We suggest you
follow our policy, which has al
ways proven effective, of asking the
individual concerned when you want
such information.
According to Dean Abbott, a
fraction of a per-cent more An
nex students dropped out this se
mester than last year. The figure
is still below 7% however. Dr.
Abbott reported satisfaction that
the anticipated increase in failure
due to war-time high school defi
ciencies had not occurred.
The two sophomores who at
tempted to burn, TU’s bonfire ap
peared before the same panel as
the yell leaders and received a
lighter sentence. The man who.
wrote the editorial deploring
their act also was one of four
signors of a letter to the panel
urging clemency in their case.
The price of winning the sports
manship trophy may include deny
ing ourselves some things we re
ceive pleasure from. Like other in
vestments, however, it pays off—in
good will for A&M, finer rua-
tlons with other people and better
jobs for our graduates.
You have emphasized one thing
we have been repeating all year;
that bonfire burning, and the at
tendant fighting, can lead to ser
ious injury, or death, of students.
Last year TU tried to burn
oar bonfire, our team was fight
ing mad, and wa ate them up on
tkt football field. This year we
triad to burn their*, their team
waa fighting mad, and they ate
ua up on tha football field. Doea-
n't that strike you aa a little
more than coincidental?

Our editorial board is appointed
the cO-editors, and f* made up
of men who have worked with us
Idng enough to gain our respect
fhr their writing and reasoning
abilities. They are responsible to
the co-editors, who are in turn,
responsible to the man;
dint publications.
: Members of our editorial board
(nay be removed only by tha co-
editors. At present, we are com-
pletely satisfied with them. They
have worked long hours and lost
many grade points doing the re
search and writing on the edi
torials which have made our edi
torial column one of the best, and
best read, in the nation. As long
as they continue their good work,
they will continue in their jobs.
, If the co-editors operation of the
paper, which included the work of
the editorial board, grows grossly
inefficient as well as highly un
popular we will probably resign
and go back to making the pass
ing grades we once enjoyed, I

AN EXPLANATION?
J A •
Editor, The Battalion:
Many letters have been written
you recently, and I feel that I too
should have my say. First of all,
I should like it noted that I am
probably one of the most outstand
ing students in A&M. I am so out
standing that my bruin has been
in a glass jar since last Septem
ber and is being studied presently
by many learned scientists.
I find however, that I get along
famously at A&M without my
brain; I never have to think for
myself, I merely follow the tradi
tions that happen to prevail at any
certain time. I have had consid
erable trouble in passing my stud
ies, but as you Intimated in a re
cent editorial, a real red-blooded
Aggie doesn’t come to A&M to
study. Everybody know* that the
mont important thing In college I*
having a good ole hell raising good
time and making a lot of friends;
those guys that study so much are
destroying the real, true genuine
Aggie spirit and they should go to
T. U. and sip tea with the yellow-
bellies.
Like all real red-blooded Aggies,
I stick with my classmates and
buddies at all times regardless of
what side of an issue they take.
I never have to use my brain to
examine the various aspects of a
situation; I merely take up the hue
and cry of my classmates and
scream in unison that all teachers
are a bunch of loafers that are
too lazy to get a job in the “out
side world”, or that you, the. edi
tors of The Battalion are a bunch
of two-percenters who are tryipg
to turn A&M into another T. U. I

all my cronies and as surprising **
it may seem, no one ha* noticed
that I am lacking a brain, except
possibly a few of my prof|, and you
know what us Aggies (red-blooded
Aggies) think about prof*.
1 sure am glad that I am an Ag
gie because us Aggies stick togeth
er all through life, and :H1 never
have to do My own thinking. I in
tend to go to work for'an Aggie
Ex, and I’m sure he will support
me for the rest of my natural
life without any hard wdrk on my
part, because I have learned how
to get along with people here at
A&M and that is what counts in
life. I also, hold my likker like a
