sleep. In place of “blind obedience”
in the Corps, I believe there is
actually a feeling of resentment
to interference by anyone other
than students into Corps policies.
True there are some “gung ho”
people in the Corps who base most
of their thinking purely on
emotion, and I’m not claiming the
Corps is by any means perfect.
But although the Corps hinders a
few people in this ability to think
unbiasedly, there are factors at
other schools which wc don’t have
here, such as social and in a few
cases religious pressures which
also do the same thing for a small
group of people there.
I believe the good received from
the Corps is dependent upon the
individual and therefore I wouldn’t
vote for a compulsory Corps
either, but I believe the Corps does
have something to offer in the
development of an open-minded,
inquiring attitude toward life.

The Battalion:
We would like to take this
opportunity to express our thanks
for the fund raised by the Aggies
for the benefit of our son Victor.
We deeply appreciate this spirit of
helpfulness shown by everyone at
A&M.
Sincerely,
Mr. and Airs. S. B. Zuckero

To the Students in the School of
Agriculture
I am grateful to you for the
beautiful silver platter which you
gave to me through the Student
Agricultural Council. I will always
love and cherish this gift, with
its inscription, as my most prized
award for your friendship and
loyalty to me down through the
years.
My happiness has been working
with you and the success you attain
after leaving college.
Even though you had rather face
a machine gun than one of my
lectures, I want you to remember
me by my theme songs-“Goals are
like stars; they may not be reached,
but they can always be a guide.”
To those who have not finished
college — “LOST YESTERDAY,
Somewhere between sunrise and
sunset, two Golden Hours, each
set with sixty diamond minutes.
No reward is offered for they are
gone FOREVER.”

Editor,

1 read your paper regularly and
on the question of compulsory be
longing to the Corps, I would like
very much to have my say so! Not
as an Aggie but as the mother of
one.
To begin with, the tradition of
A&M has been military for as
long as there has been an Aggie-
land, so why bother to go there

if you don’t belong to the Corps.
Certainly, I find in my own ex
perience I could have sent my son
to several colleges much closer and
at less expense than A&M.
But as anyone can see, we are
living in an age of unrest and
wars, and aren’t the best prepared
men the ones who will go the
farthest to keep our country safe
and sound? Believe me, I’m no
war lover but I don’t want my son
shoved out on the front lines un
prepared either.
If you take the Corps and dis
cipline from A&M you only have
just an ordinary school left. One
which you can find in almost any
city.
I am an Aggie supporter and in
tend to stay that way. I was there
Mother’s Day and saw several
“non-regs” which were not even
properly dressed to meet anyone.
Frankly, I was very proud of the
Corps when they were on review
and am glad to Say I was proud my
son was one of them.
So why let the “non-regs” ride
to fame and glory on the Aggie
tradition. If it isn’t worth the
work and time it takes' to be in
the Corps the stability isn’t in
the man anyway. He can always
go elsewhere.
So let’s keep it military. I’d love
to see my grandchildren go there.
Sincerely,
Mrs. C. C. Koehler
Lowake, Tex.
