Of course, the Communist party
profits from the riots in our na
tion. But, if there were no per
sons like you there would be no
rioting, and communists would have
nothing- to criticize.
Persons like you are making- a
martyr out of Autherine. And I
don’t see why Autherine cannot
g-et a good college education in a
“white” college. She wants to go
to that institution because it has
better facilities and teachers than
the Neg-i-o colleges. Why deny
her the right to knowledge when
she is a human being just like
you ?
I don’t know where you get your
superiority complex. Nazis thought
they were superior in the Olympics
of 1936. But an American Negro,
Jesse Owens, showed them a phy
sical superiority in three events—
giving honors to the United States
and bringing the American flag
to wave at the top of the mast in
Berlin stadium.
Let’s all be brothers like Jesus
Christ taught us. Let’s not fight
each other.
You called those rioting mobs in
Alabama your fellow Americans.
They are, even though they are
acting in a most un-American man
ner. And Autherine Lucy is your
fellow American, too. Fullerton is
not blasting his fellow Americans;
he is blasting people with narrow
minds and senseless prejudices.
We are in an age of progress,
so why not let the Negro share
with us this progress to make a
better, stronger and more prosper
ous America.

Editor, The Battalion:
This letter is an attempt by
three Aggies to criticize their
school, to-wit: the deplorable per
formance of the audience which
attended Wednesday night’s con
cert at the White Coliseum.
Sir Thomas Beecham, Bart., who
brilliantly conducted the Houston
Symphony Orchestra, is one of
the foremost (perhaps the fore
most) conductors in the world.
We imagine that the Town Hall
Committee had considerable diffi
culty in arranging for him to ap-

than the fact that he planned only
three concerts in Texas.
Fie deserved the highest acclaim
that an audience is capable of giv
ing; he received an insult.
One can only imagine what Sir
Thomas thought when, giving a
concert at a major American edu
cational institution, he heard; con
tinual applause between move
ments; a wolf-whistle directed at
the first Cellist ( a young wo
man). He might have justifiable
thought, “This is a college?”

The Arts are, we think, the
highest manifestation of Man’s
creativeness. Is an education
merely a matter of becoming a
wizard on a slide rule, or is it this
in addition to learning how to ap

Texas A&M, we fear, suffered a
