Students Can Help
A very important survey is starting at A&M—the one
we told you about on page 1. This survey, if it accomplishes
what the Accident Prevention Committee wishes, could save
some student from becoming involved in an accident in the
future.
It takes records of accidents, and the causes of these
acidents, to provide information for the Committee to work
with. Present records are very inadequate for past years.
But the Committee would rather rely upon the voluntary list
ing of accidents during the period since Sept. 9 of last year
than have to build up a record of accidents during the period
Jan. 17 on—a record that could be accumulated only by the
pain and misery of preventable accidents.
That’s the problem; and students can provide the an
swers. We know that filling out even this simple form will
require a little time. But it will be time well spent, for it
can provide the knowhow to prevent many future accidents.
So we join the Committee in urging students to please
comply with this reasonable request. Accidents can and will
be prevented if the students will help.
Don’t Forget This
Just a short reminder to students and citizens of our
community. The March of Dimes is still going on and more
and more money is needed in the fight against infantile par
alysis. The fight is not over yet against this dread disease.
So give, and give all you can for this deserving cause.
Thank You, Ken
We wish to express our appreciation to the A&M basket
ball team for the 75-74 victory over the University of Texas
Friday night. Now we can finally digest that Thanksgiv
ing turkey.

War, Revolts,
Focus of New
R. S. Course
Causes of war and revolu
tion is the chief focus of a
course being - offered for the
first time next semester. It
is R. S. 380, “Sociology of
War and Group Conflict,” a sociol
ogy course of the Department of
Agricultural Economics and Sociol
ogy scheduled for 8 Tuesday,

Many problems discussed in the
recent SCONA program will be ex
amined more comprehensively than
was possible in that program. War
and revolution, outstanding social
problems of our day, will be an
alyzed as social problems. Causes
of these phenomena will be ti - eated
systematically, with economic, cul
tural, social, and psychological
causes being emphasized. A wide
variety of proposals for prevention
of war and revolution will be crit
ically examined.
Wide use of contemporary illus
trations will be made showing the
complexity and interrelatedness of
events and phenomena. In discus
sing - the major trouble spots in As
ia, Europe and Africa, the attitudes
and viewpoints of the peoples in
volved will be explained.
Prerequisites for the course are
either Rural Sociology 205 or six
hours of social science. No text
is required for the course, which
will be taught by Melvin S. Brooks
of the A.E.&S. Department.
