For The Year Ahead
Today a new staff takes over the reins of The
Battalion.
To these men falls the responsibility of pub
lishing a paper written of A&M and for A&M.
To these men will fall the responsibility of
meeting the problems which will be coming up
within th next year.
The responsibility of meeting these problems
goes further however for they must try to see what
is best in the long run for the school and not for
just students as individuals.
Along with this they are faced with represent
ing the people of College Station and covering the
news and happenings in, and around this area.
A&M is, and will remain, a great school. What
these men do, and the help they receive from their
classmates next year can go a long way toward
helping to make it even greater.
The personal bickerings, the departmental
cliques and Civilian versus Corps hassels will come.
What the new staff will do—this remains to be
seen. Theirs is the responsibility to take this load
an dcarry it out in the most objective and imperson
al manner possible.
It is our belief they will do a commendable job,
both to the school and to their profession.

Talk Continues
Tonight About
Insurance Plan
Student Senate Hospital
Committee will meet tonight
w i t h two other insurance
company representatives t o
secure proposals for an in
surance plan for the student body.
The talks tonight are arranged
with a representative from Univer
sal Security Life and another from
Lloyd’s of London. Lloyd’s of
London has submitted one plan
through an earlier meeting, and
another agent is to offer a differ
ent plan, according to Joe David
Ross, of the Student Senate.
The Hospital Committee has al
ready discussed three other poli
cies—one offered by North Ameri
can of Philadelphia, the first plan
submitted by Lloyd’s of London
and another from Continental Cas
ualty Company.
After hearing and weighing mer
its of these five policies the Hos
pital Committee will rmike its rec
ommendation to the Senate for
action on the policies. To be se
lected is the company as well as
the type of coverage. Among the
policies are blanket accident, sick
ness, deductible accident and sick
ness, and miscellaneous and va
rious combinations. Prices of the
policies are expected to vary in re
lation to the amount and type of
coverage.
Ross says the policies all have
several features in common, these
being coverage for 12 months on
a voluntary basis; the accident cov
erage is $1,000 blanket medical ex
penses plus another $1,000 in case
of accidental loss of life or dis
memberment; and $10 deductible
on all claims.
Two companies that have offer
ed accident plus sickness coverage
have been asked for rates on an
approximate $750 sickness sched
ule, in addition to accident cover
age.
Most of the policies submitted
restrict participation to students
who pay their medical service fee.
Two policies under examination call
for a minimum of 2,200 students
for the policy to be effective. An
other requires a 2,000 minimum.

Don Juan in Hell
Opens In MSC
“Don Juan in Hell” a part of
the play, “Man and Superman,”
will be presented by the Aggie
Players tomorrow at 8 p.m. in the
Assembly Room of the Memorial
Student Center, according to Vic
tor Wiening, director of the, play.
The part of the play by George
Bernard Shaw displays his famous
wit on politics, religion, war, mu
sic, manners and the possibility of
man becoming a superman. But
more important he discusses the
life force in mankind, that deter
mination not only to survive and
procreate but to improve the race.
Particularly does Shaw empha
size that a “superman” is pos
sible (not in the Nazi sense) and
ideal, provided we devote our ef
forts to developing more and bet
ter life rather than improved dis
tinction and death, according to
Wiening.
Jack Gladwell, who will play
the devil, did radio plays, in the
Canal Zone and was with the
Army Special Services while in
Japan with the Army. In Japan
he played several parts and had a
couple of leads in the plays pre
