Have You Voted?
Have you done your duty? Have you voted?
If not, you are losing your chance to express your own
will; your place in the student opinion about the union tee
has been left vacant. .
We hope you will vote “YES in the election being held
today and tomorrow in the Memorial Student C enter. VVe
hope you vote this way, for the Center needs the money to
continue its high standards of facilities and services.
But even more so, we hope you will vote because it is
vour privilege to express your individual opinion through
your ballot. Whatever your feelings, however you vote, that
is for you to decide. The MSC wants a decision, a favorable
one it is hoped, but one that is the true expression of the
opinion of as many students as possible. j _
A free vote is a precious thing, but in the past, piecious
few students have exercised this privilege. It’s a good time
for change. , • -i, *
Those interested in the MSC hope to see a majority ot
students vote “YES.” And they want this majority from as
large a majority of Aggies as will do their duty.
Friendly Advice
If you think the parking problem is bad now, just wait
until you see the number of cars here this weekend tor the
football game. . , .
But things won’t be so bad if you will follow some advice
being given by the Office of Campus Security. This advice
is: Leave your car in its proper parking area unless it is ab
solutely necessary to use it.
Our campus streets are going to be crowded with stran
gers to our school driving around looking for that meeting
place^tudentg can help. They know the campus and, unless
necessary, can walk to wherever they have to go.
And they’ll also know that they don’t have to walk clear
across the campus to get back to where they had to park
their cars.

Ike Progresses
Along Road To
Full Recovery
DENVER—(A 5 )—President Eisen
hower made continuing, encourag
ing progress along the road to re
covery yesterday amid a growing
belief he will retire to the role of
“elder statesman” at the end of his
present term.
Personal friends said privately
it would be “unthinkable” to sub
ject him to the burdens of a 1956
political campaign and another
four years in the White House.
At the same time they ruled out
the possibility that he would even
consider resigning before the ex
piration of his present term in the
absence of any complications that
would bloke the “complete recov
ery” for which his physicians are
hoping.
Meanwhile, as encouraging bul
letins continued to come from the
sickrcfom on the eighth floor of the
hospital, Atty. Gen. Brownell sug
gested in Washington that it may
not be necessary for him to give
any opinion on the delegation of
the President’s powers. But he
added that “there are legal ways
and means to assure the orderly
functioning of the government un
der the Eisenhower policies.”

Kid Day At BAFB
Termed Success
The seventh annual Kid Day,
sponsored jointly by the College
Station and Bryan Kiwanis clubs
and Bryan Air Force Base, was a
large success.
Reverend Norman Anderson,
chairman of the Kiwanis Club’s
Boys and Girls committee, said at
the Tuesday meeting of the club,
that four bus loads of junior and
senior high school students from
College Station joined a larger
group from Bryan to tour the base.
The students inspected pilot
training apparatus, T-33 jet air
craft, and watched movies.
Speaker for the Kiwanis meet
ing Tuesday was Captain J. B
Carlisle of the Safety Section of
the Texas Highway Patrol. He
spoke on traffic safety, and the
need for driver education in sifite
schools. vk
He said driver education wmhkl
cost only $25 per student, oigV^he
price of one dented fender’^and
would save thousands of dolLaJ^b in
property damage. . \ -J
