Senate Drafts
Protest Letter
(Editor’s Note: Student Senate voted Thursday to send
the following letter to the president of the Louisiana State
University student body. Copies of the letter were sent to
A&M Dean of Students James P. Hannigan and L.S.U. Dean
of Students John A. Hunter.)
President of the Student Body * x
Louisiana State University
Baton Rouge, Louisiana
MR. PRESIDENT:
It is my unfortunate duty as representative of the Stu
dent Senate of Texas A&M College to inform you of the un-
pleasent treatment to which our Yell Leaders and student
body were subjected before and during the football game of
last Saturday night and to lodge protest against such treat
ment.
Upon arrival at your campus, A&M student body rep
resentatives failed to receive the courtesy of a formal greet
ing; in fact, their presence on the campus was completely
ignored by the L.S.U. student body from the time they ar
rived, until the game was over.
The Aggie student body witnessed at this game perhaps
the worst display of sportsmanship it has ever encountered
on any campus. Our Yell Leaders were barraged by scores
of coke cups and other pieces of flying litter and were bi
assed to the point that they were unable to effectively lead
the yells. A&M students were continually heckled by L.S.U.
fans and were made the targets of obscene oaths and gestures
throughout the game.
The Student Senate of Texas A&M deeply regrets it
was necessary to write such a letter, but it was felt that the
matter should be brought to your attention so that in the
future no repetition of this sort of conduct will occur.
It is sincerely hoped that relations between our respec
tive schools will return to the traditionally friendly rivalry
that has always prevailed in the past.

Student Life Committee

PALACE
Through Saturday—-jArA^CThc
Millionairess” Savage-eyed Soph
ia Loren hips and dips through
a role in which she is rather con
vincingly a woman with “every
thing. Innocent Peter Sellers is
her reluctant beau.
Sunday through Tuesday—★
“Ada” Susan Hayward portrays
a woman with a past. Dean Mar
tin portrays a politician with a
future. The movie hardly poi’-
trays anything.
QUEEN v
Through Saturday—★A' “Battle
Stations” and “Legion of the
Nile”. Neither movie is designed
to revamp the artistic world.
Mission accomplished, yet enter-
tainly so.
Sunday through Tuesday—★★
“Posse From Hell” The posse
should have stayed thex-e. Just
another western.
CAMPUS
Through Saturday — ★★★★★
“Saturday Night and Sunday
Morning” Albeit Finney portrays
an angry young Englishman who
fights marriage, neighbors and
himself. A solid cast helps him
shine beyond belief. No children
allowed—at least physically.
CIRCLE
Through Satui’day—★★★★“The
Guns of Navarone” Also “White
Feather” “Guns” is terrific both
quantitatively and qualitatively.
The viewer if he is wise, can
time his arrival for the first of
“Guns,” thus missing “White
Feather.”
SKYWAY
Satui’day only — ★★ “When
Comedy Was King,” The Hang
ing Tree” and “Hong Kong Con
fidential” Although sandwiched
by losers, “The Hanging Tree”
almost—but not quite—saves
this trio.
Sunday , through Tuesday—★
“Voyage to the Bottom of the
Sea” and “Esther and the King”
Quite a pair. A science-fiction
minus science and historical
minus history.
GUION HALL
Friday night—★★★★★ “The
Apartment” and “Elmer Gantry”
Attendance should be mandatory.
Enough said?
Saturday and Sunday—“Sur
prise Package” Unreviewed.

For two years I have observed

paths lead to the MSC coffee

ies, like all other women, can see
no farther than the mirror in
their compact.
Girls, I believe the procedures
on most campuses (or elsewhere)
is to look where you are going.

anywhere else.
Contrary to Mrs. Allison, I
have found that most women are
impressed with a “Howdy,
Ma’am’,’ when delivered by a
Texas Aggie. Speaking is usually
directly associated with courtesy,
but of course, Emily Post could
be wrong.
It seems strange to me that
people are always biting the hand
that feeds them. Without these
“pseudo-chivalrous” Aggies there
would be no need for secretaries
on this campus.
