THE BATTALION
FRIDAY, MAY 20, 1955
Wrong Track
The budding - “over-enthusiasm*’ of form
er students has invaded the stately halls of
the capitol at Austin.
The Texas senator, an Aggie-ex, yester
day told the Senate that the other Southwest
conference schools were jealous because A&M
He probably is right, but it would be
quite wrong for the Senate to investigate
the conference officials’ ruling.
These officials made the action, and
they’re the ones to correct their mistakes—
appeared to be getting a good football team, not the Texas Senate.
Opportunity Lost
The outgoing Student Senate set a poor
example for next year’s senators at their
final meeting last night.
Personal remarks, no doubt hastily in
jected and duly apoligized for later, smirch
ed a good chance for the newcomers to get
a good look at how they will be expected to
carry on.
With all of the fine work the Senate had
done this year, it was a shame that a senator
had to say at this last meeting, “This is the
first meeting I’ve attended that really dis
gusted me.”

No Definite
Plans Made
On Press Move
Exactly when the A & M
Press will move has not yet
been decided, according to J.
Frank Tucker, manager of
the Press. The new location
is across the street from the col
lege power plant.
“All we know is that we are go
ing to move. Just when it will
be, we cannot yet say,” Tucker
said.
Easily handled equipment will be
moved by press employees, he said.
The heavy machinery will be
moved by a moving agency, and
the equipment will be moved over
a period of time, rather than all
at once.
With this spread out moving,
the press will not have to suspend
all operations, and will be able to
keep right on printing most of the
time.
No definite plans as to what
will be done with the present quar
ters of the press, in the basement
of Goodwin hall, have been made,
Tucker said.
