What’s The Next Step?*
The Air Science Department has announced that theii
investigation on quiz stealing - has ended.
With the results in the hands of Col. Joe E. Davis, com
mandant, disciplinary action, if any is necessary, will prob
ably follow in the next several days. , ,,
AJong with the conclusion of this investigation and tlie
action taken on the results, we hope will be the end to man>
of the rumors that have been sweeping the campus. truth
often hurts but not nearly so much as do rumors.
One of the more prevalent rumors on the campus is that
the Air Science investigation team was investigating ath
letes. This definitely is not true. Thefts concernng the
Athletic Department and the action already taken in connec
tion with them was discovered by The Battalion, assisted by
members of the student body.
Because such incidents were along the same lines as
the quiz stealing and no previous information had been giv
en, they were printed.
Since through these investigations we have taken steps
toward ridding the campus of dishonesty, we now can turn
to steps of a preventative nature.
Naturally, this is the hardest part. What then is the
solution that will make each of us live by the highest stan
dards of honor?
Is it guards in every building, a secret police system, or
will it come from us in the form of self discipline, in that we
refuse to lower ourselves, our friends and our school by dis
honorable actions?
Surprisingly enou'gh, there is a certain pride in saying,
“I may have failed that exam, but I was honest,” as in con
trast of having passed but not on our own.
Large Summer Enrollment Expected
Enrollment for the summer ses
sion of 1956 is expected to reach
2,000, according to Registrar H. L.
Heaton.
Registration will begin at 8 a.m.
Monday, June 4, and continue until
12 noon, with classes beginning
Tuesday at 7 a.m.
Fees, including dormitory room
reservations, may be paid begin
ning at 8 a.m. Monday, May 21, in
the fiscal office. Bizzel, Law and
Puryear Halls, Dorm 16, and ramps
F through K of Walton Hall will
be used for student housing during
the summer. Students now living
in these dormitories will be given
first preference if they wish to
keep their rooms for the summer.
All others will be filled on a “first
come, first served” basis, said Ben
nie Zinn, head of Student Af
fairs.
The secret-they’re SYNCHRO-DYNED!
They’re called the sweetest playing clubs in the book, and
for good reason. Spalding’s exclusive SYNCHRO-DYNED®
club process, a scientifically exact system of weight coordi
nation, gives each club, in the set the identical swing and
“contact feel” to help groove your swing.
And this new Bobby Jones set is as handsome as they come.
The irons feature an exclusive tough alloy steel with a
glistening high-polish finish that lasts season after season.
If you’re interested in whittling strokes off your game (and
who isn’t?) see and swing the 1956 Bobby Jones SYNCHRO-
DYNED clubs at your Spalding dealer’s.
Play Spalding Clubs and Balls—golf’s most winning
combination.

Junction Adjunct
To Begin June 1
By JOHN WARNER
Battalion Staff Writer
The sixth session of the A&M
College Adjunct at Junction, Tex.,
will get under way June 4 with a
testing period for the students.
“The camp has an ideal atmos
phere for studying and getting
ready for college,” said S. A. Kei - -
ley, director of the adjunct. “En
rollment for freshmen has more
than doubled since the program
was started.”
At a cost of $140 per six weeks
the A&M Basic Division offers sev
en hours of college credit in a
summer camp atmosphere to stu
dents entering college, for the first
time. English, math, physical edu
cation and basic courses are of
fered. The adjunct also features
counseling and recreation.
Located 250 miles west of Col
lege Station, the 411-acre camp is
on the South Llano River in the
heart of the Texas hill country.
A limit of 120 freshmen has been
set by the basic division.
Besides the courses for fresh
men, field courses in civil engineer
ing and geology are offered. While
the engineers do theii - work near
the camp, the geologists often
have to travel as far as 150 miles
in a single day for their field trips.
Students who are planning to enter
one of these fields will have an
opportunity to observe some of this
work.
Professor Joe Orr of A&M will
be in charge of the civil engineers
and Jack Boone of Arlington State
College will handle the geologists.
The adjunct is operated under the
supervision of Dr. C. H. Ransdell,
associate dean of the Basic Divi
sion.
Canoeing, swimming, diving,
softball, motion pictures and talent
shows are offered as ways to spend
leisure time. Individual and in
