Under the package deal for the Corps, an ad ditional 37 pages would have to be paid for at the reduced rate, mak ing 87 pages in all (if the Corps took the same number as in last year’s annual) and making the cost even higher than the $50 per page cost now required by the Board’s summer action. Strader reported that the Aggie- land ’54 showed a profit of around $5,000, and also said that last year’s book was expected to bring in nearly that much also. This money, he said, is to be used to build up the reserve for Student Publications. This reserve is nec essary for such an operation, he explained, for some years different publications in the program show a loss. The reserve can be used to fill in this loss, if the other pub lications showing a profit do not completely take up the lack. PROFITS ALSO are used for additional pages, more color, more pictures—anything to provide bet ter publications, said Strader. Ag- gieland editor Kurt Nauck empha sized this point, also, telling of a 17-page index for the coming an nual and the hope for more color pages in this year’s book. Kennedy brought up the point of the furniture being bought for the new publications offices in the YMCA. He objected to having to pay for this out of profits from publications, asking whether such funds should not properly come from another source. It was then explained that Student Publications is an auxiliary department of the college, and that it must pay its own way. Karl Elmquist, chair man of the Board, said that the furniture in the present offices was worn-out and not worth the money to repair. He added that the new furniture was a long-term invest ment which was needed. The funds for the furniture, and for hoped- for air conditioning in the Battal ion Office and in the Publications Business Office, are all coming out of the reserve fund held by Stu dent Publications. No funds can be gotten for the project from any state source. Another reason for asking for the charge was that printing costs for this year’s Aggieland have gone (See AGGIELAND, Page 4) To Keep Their Money By JOE TINDEL Battalion Staff Writer Aggies’ pocketbooks seem to be affecting where they park their cars this year. The new traffic regulations, ini tiated this y^ar, which provide for the paying of a fine for traffic violations, apparently have caused students to watch where they park their cars. The number of tickets given this year is roughly the same as was given for the same time last year, but they seem to be on the de crease, according to the Campus Recital Series Thursday Has Bach Society OPEN PT)R ALL BANQUETS, DINNERS RECEPTIONS, WEDDINGS AND LUNCHEONS ALL by RESERVATION ONLY MAGGIE PARKER DINING HALL 2-5089 “The Oaks” — 3-4375 BRYAN The Battalion The Editorial Policy of The Battalion Represents the Views of the Student Editors The Battalion, newspaper of the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas and the City of College Station, is published by stu dents four times a week during the regular school year.

They said the decrease was due to new traffic regualtions. So far this year, there had been about 1,200 tickets paid to the fis cal office for traffic violations. Most students have paid fines willingly, but six cars have been suspended because their owners didn’t want to pay the fines. The use of AMC parking decals has aided patrolmen in enforcing parking regulations. Each park ing area has a certain color decal. If a patrolman finds a car in an area which does not have the same color decal, that person is given a ticket. Campus Security plans to do away with the old license plates sometime in the future and use decals altogether. The use of decals this year has made it possible to catch parking violators who take down their li cense tags in an unauthorized area. Two men have been added to the History Department, to assist in caring for increased enrollment. Dr. Earl T. Millen of Aberdeen, Wash., is teaching courses in Amer ican government. Dr. Millen holds B.A. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Washington. George A. Brubaker is teaching courses in American history.
