LETTERS

no means proof that the authors of
the letter did not have the benefit
of logical thought.
As to the spelling, if an editor
can find little more than a per
son’s spelling to criticize in the
editor’s note, then the note could
well be omitted. See also 3 above,
concerning the “75 odd years” in
reference to the same letters. Not
everyone has had the opportunity
at proper spelling that a Batt edi
tor has had. Or is it the proof
readers who correct the editorials ?
Not everyone has had six years
of college education behind him,
as these five veterinary students
have had. A few mistakes are ex
cusable.
In the interests of a greater

Measles Cases
Drop in Local Area
One hundred and fourteen cases
of measules were reported in Bry
an and College Station last week.
This is an increase over the
month of January which reported
only 124 cases and February with
234 cases. However, the increase
is due to a normal specatic out
break and a epidemic is not for-
seen, said Dr. R. H. Harrison, of
Bryan.
The outbreak seems to have al
most stopped, said Dr. J. E. Marsh
of the College Hospital, who has
received no new cases this week.
AN AGGIE quartet, “The Blue
Notes,” sung for the College Sta
tion Kiwanis Club yesterday. Com
posed of Truett Fields, Bob Jones,
Kenneth Jones and Ronnie Cheves,
the group specialized in barber

Willard T. Crevalier, vice-president
of McGraw-Hill Publications, will
speak to the club. This will be the
fourteenth year that he has spok
en here.
THE BRAZOS and A&M Stu
dent Chapters of the American In
stitute of Architects will hold a

2A and 2D, 7 p. m. Thursday.
Ernest Langford, head of the
architecture department said the
meeting will be a question and
answer session where students can
bring their problems to the prac
ticing architects and get better
acquainted.
Joe Drake, fifth year student
from Dallas, is president of the
student chapter.
A&M STUDENTS, Frank Man-
itzas and John S. Samuels, will
not speak before the University
of Texas student and faculty re
lations committee concerning the
possibilities of coeducation at
A&M. The meeting has been can
celled because the coeducational
controversy has receded, accord
ing to the UT committee.
Manitzas, co-editor of The Bat
talion, and Samuels, vice president
of the MSC Council, were to team
with University of Texas girls in
discussing opposite coeducational
viewpoints.
AN A&M GOOD will committee
