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.

than paintings by master artists.
In the 17th Century a large Vene

livres (a livre then was worth
about a pound of silver). In con

then valued at only 3,000 livres.
