Thnma* Jeffer*on Ags, TCI on Trial Memont* arc awaken*^ on the AAM CHmptiP this week a* the football fume with Texas Christian University Sat urday draws ni^h. F'or some Alkies—those who participated in the post- Kame brawl on the TCL' campus last year—these memories are vivid. Others recall it as they pictured it later when told about the fntnK fixht. At any rate there is some diacussion floating around Amrieland concernina what to expect when TCU students in vade the campus this weekend. Some of the "hirers” are ready to irive the Fort Worth visitors a return engagement, this time on home ground, if the occasion arises. But the majority of the Aggies are content to let things take their own course ami act only in defense if necessary. It is the latter group which nurses almost the right idea But not quite. These individuals shouldn’t even exj)ect any physical violence, (live TCU a chance let them make their word good. After the incident last year which saw a horde of the Cowtown student* converge on a smaller group of Aggies and proceed to issue some "licks.” officials at TVU were much disturbed So much, in fact, that Dr. I^iwrence Smith. Dean of Students, released a statement to radio stations and news papers which t<*ok all blame off the Aggies This was fol lowed by a student delegation, headed by TCI' Student Con gress President George Dupree, coning to the AAM campus and making a personal apology. . TCU took all blame for the fight—in which several Ag gies were ^lightly inj'ured and an amount of personal property was stolen from the cadets—and promised a similar event would never happen again In addition, the university re imbursed A<£.\! for all lost property. So that's the nutation Aggie* face this weekend. They remember the conflict and are wondering what to do about it. The best advice is: #on’t do anything' Remember that you are an Aggie with the honor of your school resting upon your shoulders. Aggies in the past have listened to insults - and "catcalls” with closed ears. If the hands of fate Saturday turn the tide of football in TCU's direction, don't take it out on the Fort Worth students They are spectators just as you are. If the Aggie eleven is losing, pay no attention to the strains of "Poor Aggies After all, some of us aren’t mil lionaires Mattox Recalls Life as 'Movie Star' Hy J U K TKAGI F.

Hi J. M K< HtF.KTS Associated Press News XnaUst The politicians are in a big hassle over who is playing pat tisan politics with American for eign policy. They nearly all agree it's a reprehensible thing to do This, they say, is a time of great crisis foi the great affairs of this great republic, when its great peo|dc must present a front of great unity for the world to see LETTERS Ed iter. The Battalion . . I’m disgusted As a man who respects and admires ladies, I have nothing but contempt for a man w ho tells off colot stones in then pieaenct- I am rcteir ng to the exhibition we witnessed at the firnt midnight yell piac- tice. The so-called •‘fables’’ have al ways been pretty bad but that h nday an all time high was reached in coarseness and vul garity. 1 believe it lies in the office of the Corps Chaplain to see that such activities are confined to ■'bull sessions" and not flaunted out in the open for the world to see. Our illustrious leader who stands so proudly in front of the Acad emic Building bears the title of soldier, statesman and knight ly gentleman. Some of us may become soldiers or statesmen, but at this rate we will never iea«h even the lowest level of gentle men. l-arry Leighton ’lil Thl* fleal of agreement begins t i fall apait when it Conies to determining what is a partisan approach to foreign policy and \*hat isn't. \S ell, say* former President Truman, he wouldn't think of doing to Kisenhowei and Dulles what the y did to him and Ache- son in lU.VJ. But when it tonics to doim-tic affairs, >u< h as the recession which he says the Re publnans caused and did little to stop, and which he seems to think is continuing that, he say>. is another matter, and he can be pHitisan about it. N ice President Nixon says he doesn't like to tiring it up. but the UemiKiats aie accusing his party of ad soils of things, and he thinks it only fair to remind la-ople that tice Republicans have done great wink foi peace where as the Democrat- faded ali along the line and got us into a war. The former President doesn't mention that America's economic stability is vital to its system of alliances around the world. Its ability to launch new supports for world trade is just as im- imitant to the Bntish ( ommon- weaith a* military cooperation with Onlian in the Middle Foist.

The Aggie semoi was born in Hollywood, Colif., and lived there for seven year* He was an understudy for 20th Century Fox as a youngster.
