How We Can Help
One definite factor hindering- the investigation on quiz
stealing- has been the lack of fact.
Colleg-e officials say they have received numerous re
ports and rumors, some in the form of complaints, but that
most of these have failed to be substantiated by fact. Re
peatedly they have said they can and will act, provided they
have facts.
In such a matter as stolen quizzes where suspension
from school is the possible penalty, rumors or hearsay don’t
carry much weight.
Although the officials haven’t had much in the form of
student help in regards to concrete evidence, it can well be
imagined they appreciate the interest.
Such interest shows that their are those on the campus
who can’t stomach the practice of stealing quizzes. These
people are thinking of the future and whether or not they
can take pride in saying they graduated from Texas A&M.
The factual contributions from just one person will go a
long way in helping remove the stigma of thievery our cam
pus is getting.
Letters to the Editor
Interest Ran Low
Approximately one-fourth of the students here voted in
the election yesterday which was to express the student body
feeling toward segregation.
The outcome of the voting is not near as important as
the number of those who voted. Such a poor showing doesn’t
declare a real victory on either side of the segregation fence.
It does show however, those opposing integration had the
strongest feeling.
Congratulations go to those who did have enough interest
to vote, regardless of how they voted.

Barlow To Give
Grad Lecture
Tomorrow Nile
Howard W. Barlow, director of
the Washington State College In
stitute of Technology at Pullman,
Wash., will deliver a graduate lec
ture tomorrow at 8 p.m. in the lec
ture room of the Biological Sci
ences Building.
Barlow’s subject will be “Cur
riculum Requirements for Accred
itation by the Engineering Coun

and Its Impact on the Graduate
Program.”
“In recent years the Engineer
ing profession has shown an in
creasing interest in encouraging
graduate work,” according to Dr.
Ide P. Trotter, dean of the Grad
uate School. The Engineering
Council for Professional Develop
ment was organized and has con
ducted studies of the traditional
training required for engineering
degrees and graduate programs in
engineering.
“We are fortunate to be able to
hear an analysis of the impact of
these developments in graduate
programs in engineering by Bar-
low,” said| Tx-otter. “His contacts
and px-ofessional woi'k from coast
to coast gives him a very deshable
bx-eadth of view from which we
can profit in strengthening gi'ad-
uate engineei’ing at A&M.”
Barlow received the B.S. degree
in mechanical engineering from
Puxdue University in 1927; the
M.S. in aeronautical engineering
from the University of Minnesota
in 1934, and the Sc. D. in engineer
ing from New Yoi-k University in
1941.
He served as instxuctor, assist
ant pi-ofessoi', associate px-ofessor,
and head of the Department of
Aexonautical Engineering at the
University of Minnesota, and as
Visiting Lecturer at the New York
University from 1932 to 1940.
Barlow sexved as head of the
Department of Aeronautical Engi
neering at A&M from 1940 to 1944.
He was made Dean of Engineering
and Dix-ector of the Texas Engi-
neexing Expeidment Station and
Director of the Texas Engineering
Extension Service in 1944 and serv
ed in that capacity until he accep
ted his pxesent position as Dix-ec-
tor, Washington State Institute of
Technology in 1954.
The public is invited to the lec
ture.
Since 1928 about two billion peo
ple have entered the United States,

Editor, The Battalion:
Long after the stage lights have
dimmed and the set crews have
packed up the txappings that axe
the txaderaai-k of show business,
i.e., light, makeup kits, flats and
px-opexties, there is a crew still at
work. This is the publicity crew.
For them there ax - e still a few de
tails to be tended to, rounding up
the bills, collecting published ma
terial and thanking those involved
in px-oducing the show for their
contributions in making the show
a success.
This is where we come on the
scene. None of us has ever enjoy
ed an assignment as much as we
did this one. The “Khaki Jungle”
was a pleasure to advextise. As
a college production it was out
standing. Not in a long time has
thei'e been so much eagerness on
the part of the Aggie Players to
put on a show.
Not only do we want to thank a
cooperative cast for an excellent
show but we’d like to go out of
our way to compliment Ted Castle,
Bill Swann, Rock Arnold, Kenneth
Webb and Joe Dannenbaum for the
magnificent job they did in putting
the show on the stage.
Congxatulations for an excellent
job must also go to all members
of the Office of Student Activities;
The Battalion; to Tom Puddy at
Guion Hall; the Intercouncil Com
mittee headed by Bob Barlow; the
Ross Volunteers; the BA Wives
Club; “B” Armor; A&M Band;
KORA; WTAW; Amexican Laun
dry in Bryan; Mi’s. D. D. Bui'-
chard of the Bryan Daily Eagle
and above all to the College In
formation Office for the superb
job they did in giving us statewnde
coverage on the Aggie Follies of
1956.
Last but not least we want to
thank all the Aggies and their par
ents for tuxning out as they did
for the “Khaki Jungle” and help
ing make it the most popular mus
ical comedy to hit the campus

is SOMEONE YOU LOVE
GRADUATING THIS YEAR?
I low thrilling it is to watch your boy or girl
step up to receive a diploma. How grown-up he
or she looks in cap and gown. How proud you
leel — and a little bit sad.
Graduation is a gxeat day. A tender one, too.
And one that joins memories o£ the past to
thoughts for the future.
Undoubtedly you’re planning on giving your
graduate a special gift. Something that he’s had
his heart set on for a long time. But hexe’s an
additional thought.
Why not give a U. S. Savings Bond, too? It’s the
gift that speaks of the future — increasing in value
as time goes on. Your graduate will treasure your
Bond — and it may become the first step in a
Savings Bonds program that will make some spe
cial big dream come true. Like further education,
a trip to Europe or his or her first home.
Savings Bunds are easy to buy — no sizes or
colors to worry about. Buy your Gift Bond in the
denomination you choose — $25, $50 or $100 —
at your local bank.
And while you’re there, buy a Bond for your
self, too. Or sign up for Payroll Savings where
you work. There’s no better way to make your
own dreams come true.
For the big things in your life — be ready
with U. S. Savings Bonds
