However, it was our feeling that the Student Body of the College should also be repre sented, and, having conferred, with Mr. Penberthy we felt that the wisest choice would be the Presi dent of the Student Senate. I believe that from time to time such an association of groups would be mutually beneficial and would lead to a more thorough under standing between the students of A&M College and the citizens of Bryan. Certainly it should help us to be better able to solve prob lems which might arise from time to time. L. E.
