A particularly happy, carefree bird
hidden within the branches of the
tree, enjoying the beautiful sun
shine and snappy air, was twitter
ing and chirping busily. This stu
dent paused, glared into the tre<^
and muttered, “Aw, shut up!
What’s there to be happy about?”

A visitor who might have been
looking in on the evening meal
in Sbisa yesterday could have
sworn Aggies are handy with the
one popular “Amen” used at
religious meetings.
For about 15 seconds after the
evening prayer was finished a hush
remained over the entire room as
3,000 Aggies' waited reverently
for the prayer to be ended in the
normal way with “amen,”
But about a half of the diners,
intent on seeing the prayer ended
“right,” burst out spontaneously
with “Amens” from all sides of the
mess hall.
The meal proceedfed as usual.

Hungarian woman who was burned
across her breast with cigarettes
because she refused to make a
speech for the Communists, the
same men who had killed her hus
band.
He once slept in chains for two
weeks after being caught trying to
learn English. “Had the guards
realized it was English,” he said,
“I would have been punished more
but all they knew was that it
was a foreign language.”
Since he cannot speak English, he
has to rely on his daughter to in
terpret for him. He has no im
mediate plans except that he
“would like to do something con-
sti-uctive.” Much of his time is
spent with his 6-year-old grandson,
Steve, who is teaching him English
and is in turn learning Hungarian.
One of the men in prison with the
Hungarian was Janos Kadar, pres
ent Hungarian Premier.
Although a “dyed in the wool”
Communist, Kadar was in prison
because he had differed from the
ruling Communist regime.
Even now as Premier, he is con
stantly accompanied by two guards
and his eyes and manner give the
appearance of a drugged man
whose mind is vacant of everything
but orders, the Hungarian said.
He was released from prison by

Free Hungarians Oct. 28, 1956,
five days after the revolution began
and made his way across the border
into Austria on Dec. 21 and began
the long journey to America.
The revolution began as a quiet
demonstration by the students until
the Communists opened fire on
them, then the entire city was
fighting two hours later.
In all phases of the revolution,
there was mass defection from
the Communist Party to the free
Hungarian side.
“Bazookas” were of the greatest
need during the struggle. “If we
could have had a few thousand
bazookas, we could have driven
the Russians out since all they
had was armor. We were in bad
need of guns but even the children
helped by throwing Molotov cock
tails into tanks,” he said.
“There will be no peace until
the United Nations move into
Hungary and order the Russians
out. I don’t believe this would
cause a war between Russia and
the West.
“For me, all of Hungary turned
into a battleground would be no
worse than it is now. This way is
fast death and the other is slow,”
he said.
He left Hungary on Dec. 21 “be
cause I could not face going back
to prison again. If ever a move
ment to free Hungary begins,
want to go back immediately.”
Arriving here Saturday, the
Hungarian saw his daughter for
the first time in 13 years. At that
time, all of his family was to
gether for lunch. He has not seen
his wife since then.
His first impression of Texas was
that it might be a swamp since
there was so much water left in
the ditches along the railroad after-
recent rains.
But although he was forced to
leave his country, his contributions
of beauty still remain. For all
through Hungary he has statues
in marble and bronze that he made
in his profession as a sculptor be
fore being drafted into World War
II.
The only things he could bring
with him were a few articles of
clothing, a few sculptural tools and
a piece of bronze from the statue
of Stalin that once stood in the
middle of Budapest but was broken
in a thousand pieces” at the begin
ning of the fighting.
