CADET SLOUCH by Jim Earle “ ... why can’t all freshmen make a healthy transition from high school to A&M like Fish Jethro?” battalion editorials | Architect Display Welcome, Raiders To Span Weekend In Fayetteville, Ark. on May 12 in 1956 at exactly 10:32 a. m., Texas Tech was officially made a member of the South west Conference. The acceptance of Tech as the eighth member of the con ference terminated a long-sought recognition that first be gan in 1927-29 years from the 1956 acceptance date And tomorrow night on Kyle Field, the Red Raiders from Lubbock will realize the full measure of that 1956 acceptance of the Southwest Conference. The Red Raiders finally com pete for the grid championship. Unusually enough, Texas A&M and Texas Tech inaugu rated their grid series in 1927^—the same year the Raiders be gan seeking membership to the conference. Now the Ags are Tech’s first loop opponent. Since that time, the Cadets have built a 13-5 record, but it might be well to add that their winning success is not of recent origin. The Raiders have been victorious in two of their last three outings with Texas A&M. And it could happen again tomorrow night. Tech may be relatively unsuccessful in their initial year competing in the SWC grid wars. But they have been build ing for the rugged Southwest Conference for years. And a foundation has begun to form. Three in All Tonight at midnight in The Grove the first 1960 Texas A&M Midnight Yell practice will be held. This is a meeting where the expectancy begins building tip, an expectancy that moves Texas A&M students to back the Cadets throughout the sports season. It is a time for humor, for yelling, for “getting the Spirit.” But during the height of the festivities, and in the midst of it will be many visitors. The Class of ’35 is holding its reunion, and over 100 of them will be on hand. Several stu dents from Texas Tech will be here. Above all, the weekend risits of Texas A&M students’ dates to the campus will begin. Each and every visitor to the campus will have memories of this event—an event that can be long remembered. Let’s not forget, however, that these remenisces can also be unfavorable. A relative minority of Texas A&M stu dents making obscene remarks, or displaying disorderly con duct can mar an exceptional evening. Midnight Yell Practice is designed for excitement and the humor will be rich. But there will be three of them this fall. You don’t have to overdo this one ...

A GOVERNOR FILM RELLASE Read Battalion Classifieds Eisenhower, Each Other: Khrushchev Confront Abyss Between Them By RELMAN MORIN AP Staff Writer UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. — The two most powerful men in the world confronted each other in the United Nations Thursday and demonstrated—one in words, the other in manner—the depth of the abyss between them. Nikita Khrushchev’s darting eyes narrowed to slits when Pres ident Eisenhower stepped up to the lectern to speak. Eisenhower’s voice slowed to an iey, measured cadence when he reminded the great audience of the Soviet vetoes in the Unit ed Nations and the Soviet walk out from the disarmament con ference in Geneva. Khrushchev sat like a statute. He watched the President with a stony stare. He took his eyes off Eisenhower only once. That was when Eisenhower referred to the RB47 plane case. At this point, Khrushchev shot a swift remark to Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko. Gromyko pencilled a brief note. Eisenhower seemed to be speak ing directly to Khrushchev. Through most of his speech, he looked straight ahead, seldom turning to right or left. The lec tern was on a straight line with the middle-aisle chair where Khrushchev sat. This was the third time in a year these two men—either of whom could plunge the world into nuclear war with a single word—• had faced each other. Just over a year ago, Khrush chev was in Washington. He was all smiles then. Only a little more than 12 months ago . . . The next time was in Paris in mid-May. IT’S RIGHT ON TOP THE NEW ESTERBROOK "101” Hurry! Hurry!

The world’s hopes centered here. . When they came out, a few hours later, it was just the re verse. Now Eisenhower was grim, flushed, with jaW out-thrust. Khrushchev was doing the grin ning and waving. He had attacked Eisenhower across the green baize table, shouting, banging his fists, using the toughest of tough talk. He had demanded an apology for the U2 incident, punishment for those responsible, guarantees from Ei senhower that there would be no more flights. Between that day and now, Khrushchev heaped insult and in vective on Eisenhower at virtual ly every turn. Thursday, Khrushchev came to the great, blue and gold assembly hall. He was sunny and affable. Then, after the first speech by the foreign minister of Brazil, the assembly president announced, “The next speaker is the Presi dent of the United States” A cottony hush fell over the room. Khrushchev froze in his chair. Eisenhower entered. His expres sion was thoughtful. From around the hall, hundreds of eyes were turned on Khrush chev, watching his reaction. His expression was a blank. His eyes were hooded and hostile. The distance in the hall between the two men, and their manner toward each other, symbolized the contrast between the cold war to day and the hopes of last year. Read Battalion Classifieds Daily On Canons with MaxMman (Author of “I IFas a Teen-age Dwarf",“The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis”, etc.) ONCE MORE UNTO THE BREACH, DEAR FRIENDS Today, if I am a Tittle misty, who can blame me? For today I begin my seventh year of writing columns for the makers of Marlboro Cigarettes. Seven years! Can it be possible? It seems only yesterday I walked into the Marlboro offices, my knickers freshly pressed, my cowlick wetted down, my oilcloth pencil box clutched in my tiny hand. “Sirs,” I said to the makers of Marlboro—as handsome an aggregation of men as you will find in a month of Sundays, as agreeable as the cigarettes they make—mild yet hearty, robust yet gentle, flip-top yet soft pack—“Sirs,” I said to this assemblage of honest tobacconists, “I have come to write a column for Marlboro Cigarettes in college newspapers across the length and breadth of this great free land of America.’! We shook hands then—silently, not trusting ourselves to speak—and one of the makers whipped out a harmonica and we sang sea chanties and bobbed for apples and played “Run, Sheep, Run,” and smoked good Marlboro Cigarettes until the campfire'had turned to embers. “ Whaff will you write about in your column?” asked one of the makers whose name is Trueblood Stronglicart. “About the burning issues that occupy the lively minds of college America,” I replied. “About such vital questions as: Should the Student Council have the power to levy taxes? Should proctors be armed? Should coeds go out for football?’! “And will you say a kind word from time to time about Marlboro Cigarettes,” asked one of the makers whose name is Honor Bright. “Why, bless you, sirs,” I replied, chuckling silverly, “there is no other kind of word except a kind word to say about Marlboro Cigarettes—the filter cigarette with the unfiltcred taste—that happy combination of delicious tobacco and ex clusive selectrate filter—that loyal companion in fair weather or foul—that joy of the purest ray serene.” There was another round of handshakes then and the makers squeezed my shoulders and I squeezed theirs and then we each squeezed our own. And then I hied me to my typewriter and began the first of seven years of columning for the makers of Marlboro Cigarettes. And today as I find myself once more at my typewriter, once more ready to begin a new series of columns, perhaps it would be well to explain my writing methods. I use the term “writing methods” advisedly because I am, above all things a methodical writer. I do not wait for the muse; I work every single day of the year, Sundays and holidays included. I set myself a daily quota and I don’t let anything prevent me from achieving it. My quota, to be sure, is not terribly difficult to attain (it is, in fact, one word per day) but the important thing is that I do it every single day. This may seem to you a grueling schedule but you must remember that some days, are relatively easy— for example, the days on which I write “the” or “a”. On these days I can usually finish my work by noon and can devote the rest of the day to happy pursuits like bird-walking, monopoly, and smoking Marlboro Cigarettes. ® 1960 Max Shuimao * 4 * The makers of Marlboro are happy to bring you another year of Max Shulman’s free-wheeling, uncensored column —and are also happy to bring Marlboro Cigarettes, and for non-filter smokers—mild, flavorful Philip Morris.
