During bad weather, accord ing to the order, fatigues may be worn “any place on the cam pus.” JACKETS PANTS.. $2.95 $2.95 at LOUPOT’S Nortk Gate Battalion Editorials Page 2 THE BATTALION TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1954 Bonfires and Spirit Bonfire building has begun, and with it comes the tremendous upsurge of school spirit that has always marked bonfire time. Channeled harmlessly, as into building a bigger bonfire and supporting the team, this spirit is a good thing. But if it is channeled into stealing signs and wanting to “paint up” the other school’s campus, this spirit becomes detrimental to A&M and the individual. Already, only two days into bonfire time, we have had three cases of sign stealing. The people with misguided spirit, those who believe it is more “Aggie” to steal a sign rather than to work building one, have given A&M a black eye with at least three local businesses. But more dangerous are the “visits” to other campuses. Last year’s bonfire week, in which both A&M and the University of Texas were lucky to get by without a death, should serve as an example. * An incident on one campus demands re taliation, which in turn demands more retal iation, and soon the original incident has snowballed into an uncontrolable series of gang fights. The boards of A&M and Texas have joint ly declared that any student caught doing such acts will be immediately suspended, but this is only a punishment method. The prevention must come from the. stu dents themselves. Each student must think of the consequences of his actions, both to himself and his school. will conduct PERSONAL INTERVIEWS on campus November 16 and 17 Boeing has many positions open for graduating and graduate students.

Joe E. Davis, commandant, speaking of the corps review Saturday. The review honored guests here for Fall Military Day. Lt. Gen. I. D. White, commander of the fourth army and one of the visitors for the review, said that it was “even better than last year’s spring Military Day.” “I’m looking forward to Military Day next spring,” White said. Maj. Gen.. James M. Gavin, army chief of staff for operations, anoth er guest, was also impressed with the review, saying it could compare with any review he has ever seen anywhere. Gavin was particularly impressed by the band. “I’ve never seen any thing like that,” he said. Just co ordinating all that music must be a tremendous technical job.” “I didn’t know there were that many musicians in Texas,” said Gavin, a native of New York. Gavin said he had served with Beekeepers Meet Beekeepers from all over Texas are now attending the conference of the Texas Beekeepers associa tion, which will close its two-day meeting today. A display along the Memorial Student Center promenade has been arranged, in cluding live bees in a glass bee hive. Angry Gods HONOLULU — (A>) — Hawaiians were not surprised when a caVe-in occurred in a tunnel project through the Koolau mountains, killing five men. Old-time Hawaiians say the gods were angry because two Eeepa stones had been destroyed by bull dozers building an approach to the tunnel from the Honolulu side of the mountain range. What can be done to placate the gods ? This is what the Hawaiians recommend: “Nothing less than the sacrifice of a black pig with a red stripe down the body can undo the mis chief.” /n a FEW MINUTES your GREAT SOUTHERNER* can plan a LIFE INSURANCE program to provide you a lifetime of FINANCIAL INVEPENVENCE!
