‘Exceeds Breams’
“The total of $1252.42 contribut
ed during the Mothers March on
Polio last Friday night exceeded
our most optimistic dreams,” Mrs.
John V. Pehry, chairman of the
Mothers March reported,
“The remarkable success of the
march was due to the warm co-
operation of everyone in College
Station,” she said. Over 100 women
marchers gave their time and ser
vices in collecting donations.
The amounts collected in each
district were student housing-(pro
jects and College View), $153.55;
campus homes, $41; College Hills,

addition, $235.84; residences south
of campus, $346.22; Jones Fridge
road area, $6.60; and Negro re
sidences in the city, $34.52.
Families were reminded at 7 p.
m. Friday by the blowing of the
college whistle, ringing of church
bells, and radio reminders through
out the day.
Members of the A&M Consoli
dated high school band under the
direction of R. L. Boone cruised
through each section of the city
reminding families to turn on their
porch lights.
The truck used was donated by
the Marion Pugh lumber company.
The national guard partrolled the
areas to protect the marching
mothers and took the money to the
bank for deposit.
The College Station police were
at the Mothers March headquarters
at all times while captains brought
in donations and while the national
guard was counting the amount.
Mrs. Perry said that anyone was
missed in the Mothers March may
still Contribute by telephoning

of Dimes has been officially com

Inside Story
(Continued from Page 3)
heard the same rumors I had about
his being fired.
Irvin said, “That ought to come
from the people who hire me: I
don’t know what’s in the cards.”
I asked him why he wasn’t at
the last meeting of the council. He
said, “No comment.”
Cleared It Up
It took the next conversation to
clear up that question. Richard
(Red) Harris, corps representative
to the athletic council, said Irvin
is “on the council in an advisory
capacity, and we were just inter
viewing (coaches) and it was felt
he wasn't needed.”
Harris said, “No boy wants to
come here if he doesn’t know who
his coach will be.” I asked Harris
if he had been visited by any of
the students in the corps whom he
represents, and what the majority
of opinion was. He said:
“Yes, several boys have come
by to see me. Most of those I
have talked with want to hire
Michalske.” He said some ath
letes were among the students
who visited him, and the ma
jority of these also wanted to
hire Michalske.
Harris added, “I would like to
say this. There are some exes and
some students who don’t believe
we have depth and material, and
that, to me, is sometimes a debat
able question.”
A source which I contacted, and
who didn’t wantTiis name used, said
there was no great pressure on the
athletic council which brought
about the resignation of coach Ray
George. He said there was some,
but the members expressing this
view were in a minority.
This source also added that the
“general opinion” of the council is
that “Irvin has done a fine job.”
But he admitted that this was not
the opinion of the entire council.
And then there’s the classical
quote given The Battalion by
W. L. Penberthy, dean of men
and chairman of the athletic
council:
Would you say the field for a
coach is still wide open?
“No, I wouldn’t say the field is
still WIDE open.”
Would you say it has been nar
rowed any?
“Well . . . I’ll just say that we’re
going to meet and look into it as
best we can.” l-wI'iBHU
