It’s grown steadily worse since Nurse Brown went to work.” NATO Meet By The Associated Press WASHINGTON—President Ei senhower may attend a Decem ber meeting of the North At lantic Treaty Council in Paris. If he does, it would almost cer tainly be his final foreign mis sion as U. S. chief executive. Administration officials are talking privately about the pos- sibilty of such a trip, but no de cision whatever has been made on it yet. As presently conceived, it would be primary a sentimental journey affording Eisenhower an opportunity to say farewell to leaders several problems of pri- whose military forces in Europe he commanded a decade ago. The NATO meeting is sched uled for Dec. 16-8. The pres ently scheduled chief of the U. S. delegation is Secretary of State Christian A. Herter. Eisenhower’s attendance would also give him an opportunity to discuss with other European leaders severay problems of pri mary interest to the alliance, in cluding the prospect of a new Berlin crisis next year and the problem of nuclear armaments in the NATO European area. BATTALION EDITORIALS INTERPRETING Rev Won’t Run Reveille won’t run at Saturday night’s game. Throughout the entire evening, from the time she enters Kyle Field before the game until she leaves, Revelie will be on a leash. During the halftime show, she will march in the front row of the A&M Band, but firmly held by a leash. Never again will the Aggie mascot perform her colorful antics on this or any other football field. A ruling handed down by the Southwest Conference prohibiting Rev to appear without a muzzle has been the cause of the actions. Rev will not wear the muzzle. Reveille did not ask for the leash. Neither did the stu dent body or the faculty of A&M. But the Southwest Conference feels that the little dog is a dangerous nuisance and should not be allowed to run free. So regardless of the feelings of Texas A&M, Rev will wear a leash. Reveille has accepted the ruling and has been practicing all week with the Band for her new role. Now it is up to Texas A&M to encourage her; to show ihe Southwest Conference that, despite some unnecessary jmd prejudiced ruling, the spirit of Texas A&M cannot be dampened. The Cadets will still yell at Saturday night’s game, may be even a little louder than usual. And they’ll yell extra loud when Reveille marches in with the Band. Because Reveille won’t run at Saturday’s game. Castro Charge Hasn’t Stirred Interest in UN Read Battalion Classifieds By J. M. ROBERTS Associated Press News Analyst The Castro charge that the United States is organizing an invasion of Cuba hasn’t stirred up much interest in the United Nations. The United States said, in ef fect, “Sure, go ahead and inves tigate.” But the delegates re ferred the complaint to the Po litical Committee where it was put on the back burner. They know the United States better than that. There was more interest in the question of how long Castro can support his pro-Cpmmunist. gov ernment, now that there is little American business left to steal. Reports from Washington that the United States would be able to sweeten its coffee next year without buying any sugar from Cuba were taken as a foretoken of an almost complete trade em bargo. Cuba, lying exposed to the world, is not as good a spot for an American-supported counter revolution as was Guatemala. And, incidentally, Guatemala was a far cry from an invasion. But there are enough refugees to make a counterrevolution, with undercover help from some Americans, and it will undoubt edly come as Castro is forced to default more and more on his pledges to the Cuban peoule. As it is, Castro seems to retain great support among the be guiled poor, so that counterrevo lution now would only produce a . deplorable civil war. A little later it might succeed primarily through defections from the Castro ranks. When the United States gov ernment has finally cut off all trade with Cuba except in the field of the humanities, food and health, she will still have one more peaceful weapon. The Guantanamo naval base is a major industry. It employes between 3,500 and 4,000 Cubans, many of whom enjoy civil serv ice status. Some of them un doubtedly are Castro extremists now busily mapping sabotage possibilities. (Tfoop buys -GROCERIES- CKISCO 3-lb.

FROOD S THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Early tO bed and early to rise is an excellent way to avoid people. y Dear Dr. Frood: What should I look for first when I look for a wife? Searching DEAR SEARCHING: Her husband. Dear Dr. Frood: Our son has been in college three months, and we haven't heard a word from him. Not even a post card. I don’t want him to think I am too demanding or overprotective, but frankly I am worried. What should I do? Worried Molher DEAR WORRIED: Why worry after only three months in college? He’s still learning how to write. Dear Dr. Frood: Don’t you agree that every college man has the right, in fact, the duty, to stand up and speak out for the things he believes in? Tomorrow I am going straight to the college president and tell him, politely but firmly, what is wrong here— the inferior teaching, the second-rate accommoda tions, the bad food. My friends think l am wrong to do this. What do you think? Determined DEAR DETERMINED: I applaud your spirit, young man! Had I been able, I would have commended you in a more personal letter. However, you forgot to leave a forwarding address. Dear Dr. Frood: I am six foot five, 225 pounds, handsome, tanned, muscled, a good athlete. But I can t get along with girls because I can never think of anything to say. What do you suggest? Brawny DEAR BRAWNY: “Me Tarzan, you Jane.” Dear Dr. Frood: I am puzzled by the Lucky Stride slogan: “Remember how great cigarettes used to taste? Lucrdes still do. ’ I ve been sitting here for hours, thinking, thinking, thinking, but for the life of me I can’t remember. What should I do about this? Forgetful DEAR FORGETFUL: I sug- gest you lean back, relax, and light up a Lucky Strike. I’m sure it will all come back to you—who you are, what you were, where you lived, everything. FROOD FAD SWEEPS COLLEGES! They laughed when Dr. Frood started the new college craze of enjoying a Lucky while hanging from a coat rack. But now every body is doing it! Smoking Luckies, that is. Today college students smoke more Luckies than any other regular. Reason; With or without coat rack, Luckies deliver the greatest taste in smoking today. CHANGE TO LUCKIES and get some taste for a change!
