Leadership Talk Ends
Officer Orientation
“As a leader, you will have to
make decisions which at times will
not be pleasing to certain elements
in your followers,” Dr. David H.
Morgan, president of the college,
told new cadet officers and non
commissioned officers last Thurs
day.
“If you give in and render a de
cision pleasing them, life at the
moment will be easier, but for the
future will be rough,” he told more
than 85 students gathered for the
orientation coures set up by the
Military Science Department. The
students had come to A&M two
days early, the Wednesday and
Thursday before last Friday’s inva
sion by the new students. Dr.
Morgan’s talk on leadership was
part of an overall program design
ed to teach the new leaders how
to lead the Corps during the com
ing school year.
“Your job as a leader is to weld
individuals into a unit vrith com
mon drives and common reaction
patterns, so that the desired re
sponse is achieved—not because
you want it, but because it is
pleasing to the individual,” he
said.
In closing, Dr. Morgan told the
cadets that leaders can produce
changes, as a rule, by slowly man
ipulating the attitudes of those
led.

Commentator Magazine
Goes on Sale Toe lay
For the first time in many years
the Commentator, student maga
zine of the School of Arts and Sci
ences, will be on sale before regis
tration. In the past, the maga
zine’s first publication appeared
around October o r November.
Through the efforts of this year’s
staff the Commentator was written
and printed during the last part
of summer.
The magazine strives, said Edi
tor Roy (Connie) Eckard, to bring
forth the finest student writing
available at A&M. This includes
both fiction and feature articles
which have student interest and
appeal, he said. The works of the
best student poets can also be
found on its pages, he claims..
Articles are illustrated with
photographs or art work. The art
staff is the largest in the student
publications program, and offers a
wide variety of styles for story il
lustrations. Walt Bell is art edi
tor.
Featured in this issue is associ
ate editor W. D. Willis’ article on
extra-curricular activities. Willis
proves, he' says, there is more to
do around A&M than see a movie.
In Sweden, 23 per cent of the
people are under 15 years old.
