Under Probation
By JIM BOWER
A heavy axe will hang over TCU students’ heads for the next few
weeks.
It seems that the Froggies “Ranch Week”, an annual affair cel
ebrating western customs has been placed on probation in lieu of fur
ther misconduct on the part of the celebrating students.
The probation was brought about by “a large scale violation of
the University’s alcoholic beverages regulation last year.” It was
stated that the probation was in effect, an appeal to students to help
make Ranch Week a “high class affair.”
Better build a fence around “the old water hole.”
Wading through the editorials we notice that TCU has made a
decision to add 10,000 seats and a $100,000 press box to Amon Carter
football Stadium as an incentive toward bringing top collegiate grid
teams to Fort Worth.
There was no need for this since we were planning to come
anyway. m
Baylor
Turning to Baylor, we see where some young lady has wiatten
an editorial blasting what she calls segregation of women by the
American male—especially in the field of business. She states in her
tirade that the United States constitution guarantees every citizen
the right to liberty, life and the pursuit of happiness.
We always thought that men themselves were enough of a
guarantee to life, liberty and the pursuit to happiness for women.
No need for government interference.
Elsewhere in The Lariat we find the following:
“In the Spring a young man’s fancy . . . .” and so is a young
woman.”
We’ll drop the subject. No use to talk of things like that here.
' SMU
The Hilltoppers are at it again.
Apparently ignoring the sympathies of their own Dr. Mouzon, of
A&M probation fame, the SMU Campus is on the move to let Texas
Tech into the Southwest Conference
Currently, they (The Campus) are conducting a survey to deter
mine just how SMU students feel about letting Tech into the confei’ence.
Also, the Student Council, by a 13-3 vote has passed a resolution con
cerning the Tech admittance controversy directed to the Faculty Ath
letic Committee. M
Tread lightly Ponies.
But good luck, Texas Tech

Willie Morris, Daily Texan editor, has ^received added support in
his battle, against the Board of Regents. iLf -Fi ahk; Dobie,: sage sof
Texas folklore, has added fuel to the fire with his blistering* attack
on the Regents. We had to turn to “The Texas Observer” for all the
letter—it got censored, too.
To you Editor Morris, we have just one request. Please put
The Battalion back on the mailing list. We are on YOUR side,
boy.

What young people are doing at General Electric
Young manager
handles finances for
$ 40,000,000 business
General Electric is made up of more than
90 product departments that operate as in
dividual “businesses” — each conducting its
own legal, financial, manufacturing, engi
neering, marketing and research activities.
One of the most important of these busi
nesses is the Technical Products Department
that makes broadcasting and communica
tions equipment and semi-conductor devices.
Responsible for managing the finances of
this $40 million business is Robert H. Platt.
Platt’s Work Is Important, Responsible
In the next ten years, the Technical Products
Department is expected to reach the $100
million mark — more than doubling its
present size. This is a big job. And it requires
Platt to keep tabs on everything from tax,
cost, and general accounting to payrolls,
budgets and measurements, credits and col
lections, and internal auditing.
25,000 College Graduates at General Electric
Experience gained in the Business Training
Course and as a traveling auditor gave Platt
a variety of financial experience. Like each
of our 25,000 college-graduate employees,
he was given the chance to grow and realize
his full potential. For General Electric has
long believed this: When fresh young minds
are given the freedom to make progress,
everybody benefits — the individual, the
company, the country 0
