Corps Adds Men
The ranks of the Corps of Cadets have been swelled by
the addition of 46 useful and willing workers.
These new men are a little older than the average cadet—
they are faculty members who have donated their services
to various Corps units as faculty advisers.
Working with all cadets, the advisers will give special
attention to the needs of freshmen who are having academic
troubles.
Another valuable contribution of these men will be to
further relations between the Corps and members of the
faculty.
These faculty members will be carrying on in the foot
steps of faculty members who volunteered their services last
year to initiate the program.
The introduction of the program was a valuable move
in regard to grades and relations.
In some cases the new faculty advisers will have big
footsteps to fill in following the advisers of last year.
First semester grades for the Corps last year were
higher than the}' had been in years. The faculty advisers
drew much of the praise for this.
Student-faculty relations showed a marked improve
ment. Again the faculty advisers were given well-deserved
thanks.
CADET SLOUCH by Jim Earle
“I don’t know if the machine has any commercial value, but I’ve raised my grades from F’s
to A’s!”
The precedent has been set. Now it remains for the
Corps of Cadets to cooperate with these faculty advisers in
equalling and surpassing the advancements made last year.
With the high quality of leadership being shown by
Corps members this year and the devotion to the welfare of
students shown by the volunteering faculty members—the
program can achieve new peaks of success.
All it needs is full support and cooperation.

Insurance Handy
Through the work of the Student Senate and the ad
ministration of A&M in 1958, Aggies are now able to take
advantage of the Students’ Accident Insurance Plan.
For only $4 students can be insured on their travel to
and from the college during holidays, between semesters
and during the summer vacation.
Some 2,000 Aggies have already enrolled in the bene
ficial plan and time is quickly running out for other students.
Saturday is the last day.
A person never knows when he might sustain an in
jury—serious or otherwise—and it no doubt pays to be “set”
when such an injury does occur.
Payment of up to $1,000 is made in this low-cost plan.
Expenses include X-rays, laboratory costs, hospital bills,
nurses, physicians and surgeons fees, medicines, surgical
appliances and practically any medical costs incurred as the
result of an accidental injury.
It never enters the mind of many people that an injury
can occur to them. These are the people who eventually are
hit the hardest and have to dig the deepest for hospital aid
and such.
It is always better to be safe.
