Man to Man
By JOE TINDEL
Aggieland is very typical this year. Two weeks of schoo’
have gone and most guys seem already to be three weeks or
more behind in their studies.
In engineering or mathematics, that’s serious but it’s
easier to catch up in liberal arts courses.
Major quiz time is coming around if it hadn’t already—
which means “hit the ball.”

I saw the first Aggie game in the Cotton Bowl—not on
TV—and was quite disturbed at the showing the team made
before a nationwide television audience, but it seemed natural
for a first game.
However Saturday night, I heard the Tech game over
the radio and the team is missing something. Whether it’s
John Crow and Loyd Taylor I don’t know, but the 12th Man
is really going to have to be on its toes this year and help
the players out. No team can play its best without all-out
support from the student body.

Gov. Price Daniel and Sen. Lyndon Johnson surprised me
last week with their attitudes toward use of U.S. troops to put
down the mobs in Little Rock. It seems almost like they con
doned the mobs’ actions against a federal court order.
★ ★ ★
In my freshman year at A&M, Texas Tech’s enrollment
was lower than A&M—coeds and all. Saturday night the game
announcer said their enrollment is above 8,000—only some
2,000 of whom are coeds.
I’d like to know why Tech is growing so much faster
than A&M.

What’s happening to Texas agriculture ?
That same game announcer said Tech’s School of Agri
culture had only some 800 students. 1 understand we have
a similar figure.
Talk to a lot of guys here majoring in some agriculture
field and most of them tell you they won’t be going back to
establish their own farms. Instead they plan to work for
some big agricultural company.
Farming looks more and more like big business every
day. The days of the individualist in farming are passing—
sorrowfully.
That’s 30 for now. Vaya con Dios.
