The Battalion ... PAGE 2 _ College'Station (Brazos County), Texas Thursday, June 28, 1956 Squeeze, Old Army! There is no doubt where this scribe thinks the Cattle Disease Laboratory should be located. This opinion, we ad mit, is a bit biased. As the case develops more than just we people here at A&M have this opinion. As the qualifications^ are read we see A&M described to a letter. The officials of the System have done their best to present a case before the side committee that describes our school as the only choice to be made. These men that got out the brochure Chancellor Harrington presented in St. Louis are to be commended for a job well done. To the organiza tions that have come to the fore and are backing us in this quest, together with the individuals over Texas and the Uni ted States we say “Thank you” for your help. The case has gone to the jury now and all we can do is hope that the committee will make its choice on merit, not politics. —dtm Leaves Without Pay Approved By Board The board of directors of the A&M System, approved the follow ing leaves without pay for staff members at their meeting Satur day: Texas A&M College School of Arts and Sciences, de partment of economics: Professor Aurelius Morgner, leave of ab sence from September 1, 1956 to May 31, to teach in United States air bases abroad; School of Engi neering, department of civil engi neering, Professor Henry J.
