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

orderly and are very nice to the
enlisted men.
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. He said that
