Army currently has an interesting display set up in the Memorial Student Center. The display shows the nose cone in which the two monkeys, Able and Baker, made their flight into outer space and also has a projector that shows scenes of the Army’s missile program. In front of the MSC a Nike missile is on display. I must admit, though, the missile looks out of place with the Christmas decorations which proclaim the coming of the “peace of earth, good will toward men” season. ★ ★ ★ The College Station Lions Club is selling Christmas trees at East Gate. The club is also selling pine cones, ornaments, icicles and lights. The sale provides an ex-"* cellent opportunity for peo ple of the community to pur chase their Christmas deco rations and at the same time help suppoi’t several of the worthy projects carried on throughout the year by Lions Club. * * * SCONA V has loaded the cam pus with college student visitors. The Men of Aggieland really have an excellent opportunity to show off their college to these visitors. * * * Civilian sophomores and jun iors are reminded that those whose surnames begin with L through It will have their pictures for the Aggieland ’60 taken at the Aggieland Studio today. Monday and Tuesday those whose surnames begin with S through Z will have their pictures made. -k -k -k Magazines for patients at the Veteran’s Hospital at Temple are still needed, according to Bennie s >1 s 3 a IH3 d1N 3 10 11 .CSIH-L >OVtl>1 OL HOOON3 O h 3jV V A d tod* noA aaiwi, 3 >1 V O a a O d a 3 S 0 N w 1 a 3 i N 1 3 i 3 i 3 a N V H i V N “1 V 1 i 9 i a H S V T S 1 A 1 w a 3 H|± A V O 9 S 9 n 1 a V d 0 1 9 V W s y 3 d 3 a d 3 1 0 w 3 N 0 a 3 A i V a 3 a 1 H 3 N i a O H 0 tQMSIMV IGDM A.

Students with magazines for which they have no further use can do a good turn for the pa tients at the hospital by taking the magazines to the Housing Office in the basement of the YMCA as soon as possible. -k * -k It is highly discouraging to note that grades are down this year. With the emphasis on study conditions in the Corps, perhaps the fault lies elsewhere. -k -k -k Clifford Lane, ’59, is trying to form a student chamber of com merce. The organization would function similar to city chamber of commerces in promoting Tex as A&M. Anyone interested in such a program should contact Lane. The Battalion will keep its readers posted on developments in the formation of this group. Lane, who was also partly responsible for the safety talks and lectures to Corps freshmen prior to work on the Bonfire, also told me that the Student Safety Society would soon have figures compiled on accidents during the Bonfire. The society deserves a large measure of thanks for the work during Bonfire work.
