Letters To The Editor

We are writing this letter in

For his information, it #s a

he noticed in hi* three years at

Editor,
The Itattalion
This letter, or petition as it
might better lie called, is intend
ed to bring to light a disgraceful
condition which exists in the Fis
cal Off^'c It is in regard to
student labor checks and it is a
matter which has angered many
students for some time
When I first started to
work, pay checks could be ex
pected lietween the loth and the
15th of the month This is too
late, of course It is ridiculous
to have to wait 20 days for a pay
check But a regular pay dav,
even if it is a late one is accept
able under the circumstances
But the last several months,
however, the checks have not st
rived even by the *20th. and the
personnel at the Fiscal Office
frankly admit they have no idea
when they will arrive.
This is, to my way of thinking,
gross incompentence 1 say
it is their busmes* to know and
if they don't, it is their business
to find out. ... ,
When a student pays a fee late,
he is charged a fine No excuse
it acceptable fof late payment
But, I ask, how in the name of
common sense does the college
expect students to be prompt
when they themselves aren't?
I believe I express the feelings
of many Aggies employed by
student labor Time and time
again this practice of irregular
payment has caused us inconven
ience, embarrassment and loss of
money.
We can do nothing but petition
for a little common justice and
ileceney Incompetence of this
sort might be expected at Po
dunk U or some other one-horse
institution hut it is not a prac
tice befitting either A A M or the
State ( of Texas.

Rex was playing on his father's
farm near Cameron one hot sum
mer day when he heard a woman
scream. He hurried to the spot
from where the scream came and
found one of two ladies who were
building a summer resort on his
dad’s land run over by her own
car. She had gotten out to open
a gate and the car hit her. break
ing her shoulders.
When Rex reached hei, she was
umlerneath the car and blerxling
profusely. Rex put tourniquets
above her wounds and made her
as Comfortable as possible
At this time, the other woman
approached the scene and went
into a coma when she saw her
friend Rex moved her out of the
sun to a nearby tree, thereby pre
venting serious complications
from developing. Hex received
many commendations for his
quick thinking and display of
mature judgment in a crisis.

trodden organization from the ex- |
tinction that it has repeatedly
been promised.
Although the Recital Series ha* I
only been undei the auspices of j
the MSC Directorate since the
1954-55 season, an organized prn-
gram of scheduled chamber-music
performances has been offered to
remdent* of the Hryan-College Sta
tion area for many years. Since
chamber-music on this campus
has a very limited appeal, several
problems become immediately ap
parent.
Most obvious, of course, is the
unfortunate fact that groups of

prohibitive cost. This is not al
