CS Students Will
Attend Celebration
Students of Consolidated High
School will be allowed to attend
A&M’s 75th Anniversary celebra
tion tomorrow and quite a large
number of them are expected to be
on hand when the college swings
its doors open to the public, said
L. E. Boze, principal.
Engineering and science tours
will be the most popular choices
among local students, the principal
predicted, since the courses taught
in Agriculture at Consolidated are
very limited.
The students will be allowed to
miss school and still have credit
for regular attendance under a
recent ruling by the Texas State
Board of Education which classi
fied the A&M celebration as an
“educational event,” Boze added.

interests. The tours have been

Batt Editors Give Wool Club
Kiwanis Program
, Journalism students and other
members of The Battalion staff
were guests of the Kiwanis Club
"at its noon meeting today. The
group presented a program in ob
servance of National Newspaper
week which begins next Sunday.
With Battalion co-editors Dave
Coslett and Clayton Selph as lead
ers, the program begin with a short
explanation from editor Coslett
about Newspaper Week, its pur
pose, symbol, and slogan.
Through the use of a tape re
corder, various phases in the his
tory of newspapers in the United
States were presented. Stories
Concerning the first paper to be
printed in America — the Boston
Public Occurances—dated as far
back as 1690 were told.
Freedom of Press
The program pointed out that
when the constitution was drawn
up, the people of our new country
were reluctant to ratify the docu
ment without some provision as
suring freedom of speech and of
the press, as well as the other pro
visions of the Bill of Rights.
Thomas Jefferson was quoted as
saying, “The people are the only
censors of their governors; and ev
en their errors will tend to keep
these to the true principles of their
institution.”
In illustrating the press’ fight
for editorial freedom to criticize
our government, a few lines from
a speech made at the libel trial of
Peter Zenger back in the pre-re
olution days were quoted. Zenger
had dared to satirize the tyranical
government in power.
The program pointed out that as
journalism of the eighteenth and
nineteenth century progressed,
publishers were more prone to pub-
Twins Born to ’46
Aggie Sweetheart
Former Aggie Sweetheart from
TSCW, Mrs. Vicki Moran Van
Liew Jr., of Montclair, New Jer
sey, has announced the birth of a
twin boy and girl, John Moran, and.
Christina.
Mrs. Van Liew graduated from
TSCW in 1946. She was Aggie
Sweetheart during her junior year,
she was also Red Bud Princess and
Cotton Ball Duchess.
Her mother, Mrs. Abby Moran,
attended TSCW from 1948 until
1950, majoring in English. At pre
sent Mrs. Moran is residing in
Fort Worth, but she plans to fin
ish her senior work at TSCW.
lish their opinion regarding the
events of that time, rather than re
serving these thoughts and ideas
for the editorial page.
A Scotchman by the name of
James Gordon Bennett introduced
the idea of presenting the news in
an unbiased way on his front page
and his own opinions on the editor
ial page. This idea soon spread
throughout the world, according to
the program.
After the discussion of the orig
in of newspapers as they are today,
Selph took over and showed the
many community services which
are performed throughout our na
tion every day by newspapers.
Selph pointed out the campaign
waged by the Kansas City Star for
city parks in that city which lasted
over fifteen years. The newspaper
won the fight and thus established
a basis of community service which
newspapers have fostered for many
years.
In conclusion, various activi
ties toward community service in
the nearby area were illustrated on
the program.
Organized
Seven new clubs have been
organized at A&M Consoli
dated Elementary School, ac
cording to Mrs. Rowena Cres-
well, principal.
In order that the children might
have a varied program, new clubs
will be organized at the end of
each semester’ Mrs. Creswell said.
Each pupil makes his own choice
as to which club to go to during
club period on Wednesdays from
2 to 2:45 p.m.

ions—one under the direction of
Mrs. C. K. Leighton, and the other
directed by Mrs. G. P. Parker. The

directed by Mrs. J. T. Dawson and

Opera Stories Club by Mrs. C. B.
Holzmann. The Press Club is
