Foreign Ministers Meet Oct. 27 On East-West DENVER, (IP)—Secretary of State Dulles said yester day that President Eisenhower shares with him a “measured hope” for concrete progress at the Big Four foreign minis ters conference in Geneva on issues dividing East and West. Dulles got Eisenhower’s final “counsel and advice” on the conference opening Oct. 27 in a 25-minute meeting with the chief executive at Fitzsimons Army Hospital. Then, at a news conference at the Denver White House, the secretary said that while he doesn’t expect “spectacular results,” he does think that he and the British, French and Soviet foreign ministers will make “concrete progress toward unification of Germany within a framework of European ^security.” He said he also looks for definite progress on increased contacts between East and West and on clearing away some of the misunderstandings that seem to have arisen over the disarmament issue. In touching thus on all four points of the Geneva agenda, Dulles shied away from using the word “optimism.” “But any results at all,” he said, would mai'k an advance on most, if not all, of our prior conferences with the Soviet Union.” Dulles leaves for Europe Friday, after briefing congressional lead ers of both parties on the Geneva parley in Washington tomorrow. It was the second Eisenhower- Dulles meeting since the Presi dent’s Sept. 24 heart attack. The first was a week ago yesterday. With the doctors continuing to report that Eisenhower is making satisfactory headway without com plications, Dulles said that he found “very distinct evidence of more vigor — more vigorous health.” He said the President’s mind was as vigorous as it could be at their last meeting and “this time there was more evidence of physical robustness.” Every day, the physicians are letting the chief executive sit up a bit more in a chair. He gets in a daily sun bath on a hospital ter race. And by the end of this week or early next the doctors hope to have him taking his fii'st steps.

Mama Bear and Baylor Bear? Mystery Unsolved Mama Bear Loses Baby Senate To Meet; Discuss Seating The Student Senate will meet tonight at 7:30 in the Senate Chamber of the Memorial Student Center. Agenda will include re ports from the Kyle Field Seat ing Committee and the Mess Com mittee. By JIM NEIGHBORS Battalion Staff Writer Once upon a time, there were three bears—a Mama Bear, a Papa Bear and a Little Baylor—oops, the Baylor Bear is missing. That’s what the Waco Chamber of Commerce is yelling—someone stole the Baylor cub. And, if it’s not returned soon, the C of C is going to be in hot water because they are responsible for the thing. Now it just so happens that Bat talion Photographer James Schu bert snapped a picture of a mama bear and her little cub somewhere —he wouldn’t tell us where though. Things were beginning to look mighty suspicious around here, with a picture of a bear cub and its mama, but B. A. (Scotty) Par ham, Student Senate president, says there “isn’t any bear here and, furthermore, A&M doesn’t want the thing on its hands.” It seems that everyone is get ting into the picture one way or another. Bennie Zinn, head of Student Affairs, said he talked to a Baylor official, but that he didn’t Don 7 Forget: 5 P.M. Today Is Deadline for 2nd Installment Ticket Sales Up; Highest Since ’51 Ticket sales are enjoying their bigest season since 1951 said Pat Dial, athletic department business manager. The Baylor game is not. a sell out as yet, but so far, about 37,000 tickets have been sold, he said. In reply to how many tickets are left for the remaining five games, Dial said that the SMU game is, by far the one that has the most tickets left for sale. There are around 10,000 tickets left for that game but almost all of them are located in the end zones. Only 250 tickets for the Arkan sas game at Fayetteville were available this year and these went on sale this morning at 8 a. m. . sdKggimBaB mmk > SMALL LINE—The line around the ticket sales booth for A&M football tickets has begun to decrease as the week draws to a close. According to Pat Dial, business manager of the athletic department, ticket sales are enjoying their biggest season since 1951. There have been about 37,000 tickets sold for the Baylor game Saturday.

Only a few low rows down in the horse shoe remain on sale. have any additional information about the missing cub. Lt. Col. Taylor Wilkins, assist ant commandant, said he hoped the thing was brought to light befoi’e the football game Saturday. Of course, this does not mean that it is being kept down in A&M’s steam tunnels.

Economics Club Hears Mudie Talk The Economics Club held its first dinner seminar at the Memor ial Student Center Tuesday night, featuring an after-dinner talk by John H. Mudie on “The Problem of Satisfying Latin American De mands for Economic Considera tion.” Mudie came to A&M from the University of Texas last Feb ruary and is now completing work for a Ph. D. The next meeting of the club will be held Nov. 1. Kiwanians To Sell Lunches At Game The College Station Kiwanis Club will sponsor the sale of box lunches for home football games again this year, according to Bob Cherry, president of the Club. For the Baylor game this week end, 16 Kiwanians will be sta tioned at the entrances to the campus from 10:45 a.m. until game time at 2 p.m. to sell lunches. The box lunch, which costs one dollar, will contain fried chicken, bread and butter, pickles, olives, potato chips, cookies and an apple. Proceeds from the sale will go to the Crippled Childi’en’s Fund, and other Kiwanis Club charities. The way all of this got started was at a pep rally held at Baylor Tuesday night. It seems that someone saw “four men” who were not Baylor students there at about the time the fuzzy little rascal dis appeared. How Baylorites knew these four men were not Baylor students still remains a mystery. Last year, the Baylor cub was stolen—by Baylor students — just before the A&M-Baylor game in Waco. Now, this year, the same thing happened and it could have been done by the same bunch of villains that did it last year. Some four carloads of BU stu dents were caught “sneaking” on the campus early yesterday morn ing. Bryan police stopped three cars on the outskirts of town and told them to turn around and head back to Waco. Campus Security officers caught the other car as it was leaving A&M. Altogether, there were 23 of the mean little rascals in on the plot to do something or other to the A&M campus. Maybe it was re taliation for the alleged crime of stealing “Pancho,” their little Bay lor “Bar.” Maybe Davy got him. To go back to the Baylor “boys” being down here, about 5 a.m. yes terday moiming, three one-quart cans were found on Kyle Field. They had contained gasoline but no visible damage has been as yet found on the field, according to William Fitts, Kyle Field grounds keeper. It seems that the way everyone found out about the cub being gone was through an anonymous tele phone call to the Waco News-Trib une. The Tribune received a call from a “suspicious sounding voice” which claimed Baylor officials and students didn’t even know the bear was missing. In closing, does anyone know how to keep a claw scratch from becoming infected ? Four Classes Hold Reunions Saturday The classes of ’25, ’30, ’35 and ’45 will have class reunions this weekend.
