An Editorial
./Ifore L i her a Is
Yesterday Virginia’s attorney general J. Lindsay Al
mond Jr. was elected governor with backing from Demo
cratic Sen. Harry F. Byrd, who has called for “massive re
sistance” to school integration.
Men like Byrd and Almond, if he shares Byrd’s views,
are no more Democrats than the late Sen. Robert Taft.
The national Democratic Party in the past has repeat
edly stood for the rights of all men, no matter what race,
color or creed they happen to have.
Neither is our present Democratic Congress a true ex
ample of the party of Franklin Roosevelt and Harry S. Tru
man. It is controlled by Southern conservatives who seem
to ignore the law of the land and continue to support con
servative measures.
This is an age in which we need positive action which
only a liberal Congress and President can give us.
Actually Eisenhower “modern Republicanism” is closer
to the ideology of the national Democratic party than the
beliefs of the Southern senators. It, in many instances, fol
lows the New Deal-Fair Deal doctrines.
In 1960, we need a liberal nominee for President like
Sen. Hubert Humphrey (D-Minn.) or Gov. Robert Meyner
(D-N.J.). In Congress we need more men like Sen. Paul
Douglas, (D-Ill.) and Sen. Wayne Morse, (D-Ore.).

The superlative musicians al
most outnumbered the members
of tlie audience in G. Rollie White
Coliseum last night, when Student
Activities presented Ted Heath’s
orchestra, Carmen McRae and the
Hi-Los.
Although they undoubtedly took
a financial licking, the three acts
never showed they were aware of
the sparseness of the crowd, and
turned in probably the best total
performance of any entertain
ment here so far this year.
Heath’s organization, on its
third American tour arranged as
an exchange between the U.S.
and British musician’s unions,
seemed even improved over their
appearance last year on the pro
gram with Nat “King” Cole.
Miss McRae, billed as a singer
with a “haunt” in her voice, also
had a slight cough, but showed
the range of her versatility with
songs such as “Moonlight in Ver
mont,” “A Foggy Day” and her
own “Skyliner.”
The Hi-Los showed a much
warmer and personal side than
they usually do on their records.

I suppose that ever since the
first class graduated from A&M
the feeling has been among the
graduating seniors that things
would surely go down the drain
very soon—that worthwhile tradi
tions would very soon disappear.
Somehow though, the many fine
traditions have lived on—but one,
I fear, is in danger—and that is
the reception of the Aggie foot
ball team when they return from
out of town games. Saturday
night at 9, the No. 1 team in the
nation returned home to College
Station. They were greeted at
Easterwood Airport by one gas
oline truck, several airport em
ployees and some 75 Aggies.
Congratulations to those who
were present.' You are the ves
tiges of crowds of 2 to 3 thou
sand who, with the band Used to
greet returning Aggie elevens
when they were not even rated
in national polls. To me, it was
a sickening sight to see an Aggie
team greeted by such a dismal
display.
Once again, congratulations to
the 75 Aggies who turned out to
Where were all the others?
and the extraordinary range of
their tenor, the group sang many
of their trademark songs in an
engaging manner.
But it was Heath who stole the
show, with his driving rhythm,
crisp brass and tight arrange
ments. The tremendous sound
and feeling generated by this
group make it seem that Britain,
rather than the U.S., invented
swing.

College graduates who make
the most money have
the fewest children.
| | TRUE Q] FALSE
False. College graduates have less
children than average, but, among all
college graduates, those with the
highest income have the largest fami
lies. This is one instance where the
rule of “more money less children”
doesn't hold true.
Three out of four college grads
are satisfied with their choice
of school in later years.
] TRUE Q FALSE
True. Graduates of all ages polled on
this subject expressed overwhelming
satisfaction with the schools they
selected. More than three out of four
graduates say they would attend the
same school if they had it to do over
again.
