f Battalion Editorials Page 2 FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1955 Cadet Slouch by James Earle Big Weekend Ahead A&M is going to host a lot of people during its first big football and social weekend, which starts tonight. People mean crowds, and crowds can mean trouble unless each individual is able to maintain personal control. The parking situation is not going to help, although all efforts will be made to facilitate the movement of cars by Campus Security officers. With tempers shortened by having to drive around and around—and with no promise of relief from the sultry weath er that hasn’t helped at all—some persons are going to carry a chip on their shoulder. We hope not, but it is probable. Many Aggies and Aggie fans will remember last year’s game with rancor. Those witnessing that game might well remember the ill-feeling that sometimes broke into fights af ter the game. Obviously the fights were related to the out come of the football game—but they proved nothing. And should fights break out at the game tomorrow night, they still would prove nothing. Whoever wins the game has won—and no amount of black eyes and bloody noses are going to change that. A group of Aggies are going to Houston tomorrow morn ing to give the Cougar’s an official welcome from the A&M student body. We hope they receive it in the spirit it will be offered. But it will be up to us here to prove that there is some thing tangible behind that spirit. Be friendly. Remember, the cougar is a relation of the cat—and the cat is a domesticated animal. Prediction Our football predictions are on the sports page. But right here The Battalion predicts that the union fee was ap proved by students by a majority of 5 to 1. We’ll soon know, for the results are to be declared by the A&M System Board of Directors, meeting here tomorrow. It was a $2 well invested. Thanks.

' tvMT'bErO K For Crime Detection Police School Here N. K. Dixon, chief of the inter nal security division of the Texas Department of Public Safety, serv ed as a feature guest instructor at the Industrial Plant Protection School here this week. The school seeks to provide in dustrial plant protection personnel from Texas with practical training in procedures related to plant se curity. The school is sponsored by the Texas Engineering Extension Service and the Industrial Plant Protection Association of Texas. Dixon told the “students” that the “ever-increasing strategic im portance of Texas, both from the industrial and military standpoint, makes this state a major target for Communist infiltration.” He pointed out that this situa tion calls for close vigilance on the part of plant protection men as well as all citizens. Untold num bers of men and women, Dixon said, are being trained in Russia and its satellite countries in the fine arts of sabotage and espion age. Dixon said the function of sabo tage is not only to create bottle necks in industrial production but to spread unrest and confusion through false rumors and whisper ing campaigns. He emphasized that it is the aim of all Communists to aid in over throwing any government which appears to stand in their way of achieving world communism.
