The Ballalion PAGE 2 College Station (Brazos County), Texas Wednesday, November 20, 1957 UTtUMAfTOfTCAftpUI hy Dick Bibfer Aii Editorial Forced Honor? Despite strong - sentiment against the proposed Corps Honor Code, Corps seniors seem determined to ram it down the throats of underclassmen. They have entirely ignored pleas that the whole stu dent body be included in the honor system. Instead, they plan to virtually force the proposed code on the Corps by so-called indoctrination. For the good of A&M, it might be well if these de termined men stopped and considered the merits of a school wide code planned by representatives from all classes, both Corps and Civilian. It has seemed to be a habit among Corps leaders to rush into and try to force measures on the students. They probably have what they think are the best interests of the school at heart. But for a truly workable system of any kind, definite long-range planning plus careful considera tion by all parties involved is necessary. Continued attempts to completely ignore the Civilian student body are beginning to become obnoxious to some on the campus. Corps leaders must plan to include the Civilian students in the Honor Code and in any other systems proposed in the future. They are going to be around for a lot longer than some would expect. It is probably well to bring out again that with adoption of the proposed Corps Honor Code, Civilian students would indirectly be submitted to questions of honor because they are not part of the system. t t ^ . 4-CorpS Honor Code Opponents must take immediate action to stop the m- 1 doctrination by Corps leaders and call for a referendum vote. In any planning for A&M’s future, the whole student body has got to be consulted for there are some who would fight to the last for the rights of all Aggies, Corps and Civilian. WTTfcf?

We are behind that Fightin’ Texas Aggie team all the way. Rice Stadium wasn’t the only place tears were shed last Satur day afternoon. There were many shed by the girls watching the game on television. Even though we were not fortunate enough to attend the game, we felt that we were still a part of that wonder ful 12th Man. The dorm in which we girls live has posters throughout it sup- porting the Aggies and we wish them all the luck in the world on Turkey Day. We feel sure that the Fightin’ Texas Aggies will come through with flying colors. We will all be supporting that wonderful group of men, because we love and cherish the wonder ful Spirit of Aggieland and all it represents. A group of loyal Aggie fans from SHSTC THURSDAYS SPECIAL?
