The Battalion College Station (Brazos County), Texas PAGE 2 Wednesday, November 7, 1956 Hope From Hungarians Hundreds of Hungarians have died and thousands have suffered in the bloody battle against communism and as far as material values are concerned, they haven’t won very much. What they have done, though, is to set an example for the rest of the world—especially for young people. The fighters in Hungary and the demonstrators in Po land largely have been students. And too, what is more gratifying, they are the students who for 11 years have been relentlessly bombarded from all sides with communistic doc trines and false faiths. Communism apparently failed to capture their imagina tion and loyalty. Such an example serves to give faith to the entire free world. Here in the United States, we don’t have much cause for actual rioting but there is a great and noticeable lack of leadership on the part of young people. Every day we hear accusations charging us with being irresponsible and immature. Or, off on another verse, we are called the silent generation, too lazy to assert ourselves so we might develop into responsible, mature minded indi viduals. But in actuality, we deserve these charges directed against our initiative and maturity for we, most of the time, certainly don’t show much in the way of responsible, mature thinking and action. Naturally, these charges will always be leveled at us in some extent for there always will be those who will refuse to recognize anything but the bad we might do. But this pitiful few will be easy to shout down if by our actions we show the rest of our so-called elders that we are responsible and dependable. Best way to do this here at A&M is to actively engage in the many activities and groups here on the campus. TUNING & REPAIR GRAY 314 N. Main — Bryan PIANO CO.

Editor, The Battalion To the Student Senate and Stu dent Body: It was with no small amount of gratification that I noticed in a recent edition of The Battalion that the Carnegie Foundation had awarded one of its top medals for heroism, posthumously, to James Sarran who was fatally injured al most a year ago at Aggieland. Almost everyone at Aggieland remembers this unfortunate ac cident and was deeply saddened by the loss of a fellow Aggie. Few of us will forget his heroic act in which he saved the lives of two other Aggies at the eventual cost of his own, which was above and beyond the call of duty of one individual to another. Therefore, I would like to sug gest to the Student Senate that they, on behalf of the student body, initiate action to have the portrait of James Sarran added to the six portraits of those Aggies who have been awarded the Congres sional Medal of Honor, now on display on the second floor of the College Administration Building. Each of the six who hold the CMH won it by performing acts of heroism which were above and beyond the call of duty while en- CIRCLE WEDNESDAY ^Forbidden Planet’ Walter Pidgeon — Also — 6 Cash On Delivery’ Shelley Winters THRU THURSDAY ADMISSION—-80c The Greatest Novel Ever Written... Now on the gaged in combat. Though James Sarran was not engaged in war, nor was he on a battlefield, his unselfish act of devotion to his fellow Aggies in pushing to safety two others was of the same high caliber of heroism as that displayed by the six holders of the CMH. I sincerely believe that James Sarran is worthy of joining this very select group of heroes and I invite all others to join me in re commending this action. B. A. (Scotty) Parham ’56 LADIES . . .
