WEDNESDAY, MAY 18, 1955
The Proper Spirit
Without doubt, every student at A&M appreciated the
school administration’s gesture in turning out classes at 11
yesterday morning so that every one could attend the ball
game.
The spirit the holiday was given in should not be for
gotten by students, however. The baseball team had just
won the conference championship, and the administration,
sensing the need of students to really “let their hair down,”
wisely made an entirely agreeable decision.
But, this holiday provides no prerogative for students
to take just any circumstance as an excuse for a holiday.
The semester is almost over, and now is the time for
all to settle down and work. How students will behave now
that the holiday is over probably will influence any future
administrative action under similar circumstances.
