The irony is the effect that the political hassle ’‘is having on the man trapped in the middle—Ken Loeffler. Jon Neely ’57 Richard (Dick) Wall ’57 Don Butter ’57 Editor The Battalion We of the 1957 Aggie Follies, “Operation: Coed,” would like to take this opportunity to thank The Battalion and its staff for the wonderful coverage given our Par ent’s Day show. Connie Eckard ’55 Delma R. House ’56 Charles S. Ware ’57 Duwayne C. Lundgren ’57 To the Editor: This year has been my most hospitalized year here at A&.M College. I was sent to the College Hospital five or six times last fall and this spi’ing for either cuts or sickness. Each time I -was thankful this hospital and its personnel were here. Not only did 1 receive comfort and help from the doctors and nurses, but cheerfulness too. One needs the emotions of laughter, joy and happiness especially when he is ill. That is what these nurses give you here. That is what I re ceived ! Cheerfulness is in itself a form of cure for frustration or lone liness. When you are in a bed surrounded by four walls, you need someone to cheer you up. The pretty nurses do a good job of it too! One time I read a letter in “The Balt” about some nurses and stu dents playing too much. I do not want to dispute the author of those words, but each time you hear laughter or giggling in a hospital which is known to be a solemn place, you feel you are in a good place for the time being, don’t you? Which is best, books or happiness? I’ll take happiness any day. So hats off to the pretty nurses and handsome doctors of A&M’s College Hospital. Joe Delatte ’58 To the Editor: In order that you might save yourself from further embarass- ment, I would like to bring you up to date on “What Goes on Here.” In your issue of 14 May you made reference to “a few juniors jumping the gun” on the wearing of the D. M. S. bar. (it is in fact not a ribbon) You weht on to say that there has been no publi cation of an official list. There again you ai'e incorrect! The of ficial tentative D. M. S. list has been published and is available at the PMS&T’s office for verifica tion. I also highly recommend you consult your dictionary for the difference between “tentative” and “temporary.” It is possible that your gross error lies in a mis understanding between the mean ings of the two words. I might further recommend that you con sult Col. Taylor Wilkins as to whether or not his office has authorized the wearing of the D. M. S. bar by tentative appointees. I’ m not insinuating that you have misquoted, but your statement re Col. Wilkins leaves some doubt as to the full situation. William B.
