BILL FULLERTON Editor Ralph Cole Managing Editor Ronnie Greathouse - Sports Editor Don Shepard, Jim Bower, Dave McReynolds- ...News Editors TCU Schoolyard By JIM BOWER Battalion News Editor One would think that the students at 1CU would be in high spirits after winning the SWC football championship. But judging by the lamenting articles in their school paper, they are in a sad state. We quote: “At the rate things are going, Frogland should be changed to Animal-land. TCU has roving skunks, stray dogs and runaway cats (usually with kittens).” Looks like their feline friends aren’t very fleet of foot. We also see where the TCU college infirmary has requested that “students wanting sick excuses visit the infirmary between the hours of 3 to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday.” What happens to those who don’t have their ills on a time table ? SftlU Turning to the hilltop on the east side of Fort Worth, we see the Ponies engaged in a high-sounding sport—“intra-fraternity paint daubing.” It seems that the different fraternities have adopted the game of seeing which one could sling the most paint on the other’s house. One of the fraternity presidents said that the only way out was “re taliation with the paint bucket.” Another student criticized the SMU Campus editorial for inter fering in the matter before the Intra-fraternal Council had a chance to act on the problem. The best suggestion yet seems to be that of the above mentioned editorial in which the writer sugested that “the Cotton Bowl seats need sanding.” Good idea—juvenile energy should be expanded in some useful way. RICE In a column by Nancy Angle in the Rice Thresher we find a rare bit of wisdom. To quote Miss Angle: “The Oregon Daily Emerald said last week, that as far as they were concerned, Bear Bryant was the only eligible candidate lot the title of ‘Coach of the Year.’ ” Miss Angle added her congratulations “for a very great season.” UT Texas University has an unusual situation. It seems that a female addition to the campus is nameless. The Daily Texan has made a plea for suggestions for a name for the “girl”. Although nameless, she is to be admired. She said that she is the first of her mother’s 25 child ren to ever attend college. Speaking for herself, she said: “Hi there. I’ve got troubles. Can you help a poor girl out? You see, I don’t have any name. Here s a clue—she is a two-month-old tan female dachshund “born in a sand storm in West Texas.” BAYLOR A front page editorial in the Baylor Lariat is bemoaning the fact that they are continually scooped on news because as they say, “divided loyalties”, exist in Bear-land. After listing five examples where the Lariat was discriminated against, they ask the question—WHY? Suggestion: Why don’t you go out and see? You could always hire the famous private detective, Mike Hammer. The Lariat also seems to be plagued with letters written to the editor but left unsigned. An editorial in the Lariat states that no letters wall be printed unless they are signed. We hope the people who enter their “Letters To Santa” contest read this editorial since Santa might have a hard time deciding who gets what. Letters to the Editor Editor, Battalion I am in the Air Force now after completing my MS degree in Chem istry in June and want to tell you of a few incidents. While I was in basic training at Lackland Air Force Base starting in early September, 1 had the pleas ure of- saluting one of our own lieutenants, Lt. D. W. Lane from Newton, class of ’55 and a very good friend of mine. He seemed to be in top shape in his work which, I believe, was officer orien tation. Of course he was sharp be cause he was an Aggie. It made me feel very good to salute officers that are that sharp, especially Ag gies. Incidentally, all those rumors that lieutenants that graduate from A&M are “Big Deals” is not true in any degree. They act very 27?» DIVIDENDS have been returned to Texas policyholders More than 25f5 out of every $1 has been re turned, year after year, to Texas policyholders by State Farm Mutual, the "Careful Driver Insurance Company.” S T A T I FARM INSUR ANCf w /t pays fo know your STATE FARM AGENT" U.

While I have been resting here at the Sheppard Air Force Base hospital, I had a three-day pass; and on one of the sunny afternoons, my dad and I decided to go out for a round of golf. No sooner than we registered and paid our green fee, a gentleman asked me if I was an Aggie (I had on my Aggie coveralls). 1 told him that 1 was in the class of ’55.
