Journalism Which Succeeds Best —and Best Deserves Success— Fears God and Honors Man; Is Stoutly Independent, Unmoved by Pride of Opinion or Creed of Power . . . Walter Williams Up it ■ Hi It’s a Good Plan Any plan to be a success must have the cooperation of those who are affected by it. Such is the case with Kyle Field seating plan announced yesterday. All the work and planning that have gone into allotting the seats to the various classes will be in vain unless each person realizes that the plan was made for a purpose. The purpose is to keep the classes segregated and to insure each Aggie a place to sit with his classmates. Regardless of how bad anyone feels his seat is, the plan has been established for several years and has proved the most workable. If some people choose to do as in years past—invite a lower classman to sit in the section with his upperclassman buddy—then the plan will be defeated from the start. Such an action is unfair to every Aggie who attends the game at Kyle FTeld. The success of the plan will depend on the same factor that everything at Texas A&M depends—how well each mem ber of the Texas A&M student body chooses to work for the fulfillment of the plan. We believe this is an intelligent, workable plan and trust your judgment to continue to support it.

Horseplay * All forms of horseplay are excellent methods of flunkin’ out. Foremost in this category is. waterfighting. The records will show that most of our'best waterfighters are straight “F” students. Among the most popular forms of horseplay are throwing smoke bombs, breaking Coke bottles, throwing cans down the stairs and lighting fire crackers. Horseplay helps the Aggies take his mind off his low grades; in most cases horseplay is the cause of his low grades. It is advisable for the horseplayer to keep his bags packed so that he may leave the campus as s.oon as he receives his flunk-out notice.
