The Twelfth Man and the Campus Chest
Tonight the Campus Chest Sticks off
on its solicitations and' collections in this
year's campaign. The purpose of the
drive have been clearly stated by, the
Chest committee and their purposes seem
perfectly; compatible with what most Ag
gies Would agree with.
If the $4,0d0 quota is reached, the'
student body of A&M will be in a* position
to offer a $2,000 Twelfth Man Scholar
ship next fall; to some promising high
school graduate. That sum would enable
him to attend A&M for four years receive
ingl $500 a semester. _ v
[This idea of a student body sponsored
scholarship appeals to most of us. We
will have the opportunity to participate in
offering a scholarship.
The fairest and most objective method
of selecting this man for the Twelfth Man
bholarship would be for him to be chos-
by the college scholarship committee,
ie organization responsible for choosing
Development Fund scholarships. This is
the plan the Chest committee has sug-
N gested. I' : 'J - j'. ' ;
•A quarter of the Campus Chest quota
has been allocated to the World Student
Service Fund to assist foreign students

“There is no reason for hysteria about moving the Jcapitol or f<

“That doeSn’t mean, of course, that we shouldn’t plan ahead

to move the seat of government Some time in the fuure.”
Legal Changes
The Senate-House Committee is reported not only to have dis
cussed plans for a possible move of the capftol but to have talked ‘ovet
legal changes which may be necessary.
It has been pointed out, for instance, that if an atomic attack
were made on Congress while it is in session and many of the mem
bers kiUed, there is no quick method of replacing members of th<
House. ' , , ' • L, -
Senators can be appointed by governors to fill vacancies, - but
House members must be chosen in special elections. . . i
Although members of the committee have been inclined to acof
at the idea of moving the capital inland frdih Washington, some,o:
them said that year from now might find such plans in existence, for
use If any emergency arises. j # J . L.
