CADET SLOUCH
One Dollar
No matter how worthwhile the
endeavor, it takes cooperation for
such effort to succeed.
Student^ will be given the oppor
tunity to provide this cooperation
next week, when the annual Cam
pus Chest drive gets underway.
Theme for the event this year is,
“One dollar from an Aggie for an
Aggie.”
Started nine years ago, the
Campus Chest is a fund drive
working similar to Community
Chest and other efforts of such
nature. Its purpose is to assist fel
low students who suffer a tragedy
of some sort, such as an accident
or loss of property.
Special effort is made to inves
tigate each case to assure the fact
that the offer is needed and will
not be offensive. During its his
tory, the Fund has brought great
ly-needed help to many Aggies, and
student participation grows each
year.

Guest Editorial
Dallas’ mass protests over training of Yugoslav Com
munist fliers have created national reaction—even in the
White House. President Kennedy has announced a “review”
of our foreign aid to Tito.
Political parties are not involved. The sole issue is Ame-
icanism—and survival of this country.
The News was the first newspaper to break the story
at Perrin Field. The News is gratified over the patriotism
at Memorial Auditorium and hopes that future signs of na
tional weakness are greeted with the same grass-roots ob
jections.
So far our country has spent more than $2,000,000,000 in
“aid” to Tito. We still cannot point to any concrete advant
ages. But the aid continues as part of our “diplomatic of
fensive.”
Such an offensive, at best, is pretty weak. But aside
from all that—what possible excuse can be given for wasting
our Air Force effort on Communist fliers who can go back
and peddle everything they know and possibly shoot the
hands that trained them.
This is ridiculous.

It is good to learn from the Smithsonian Institution that
as far back as 1920 American industrial research had made
mincemeat of the old saw that you can’t make a silk purse
out of sows’ ears. Rather, it had made an ornate ladies’ hand
bag out a shipment of sows’ ears from a Chicago meat-pack
ing plant. The ears were reduced to a silk-like cloth with
the help of chemicals.
It’s about time that research return the favor. Meat
packers have long complained that they can make use of
everything in the slaughtering of hogs except the squeals.
Surely with present-day hi-fi equipment, this unforgettable
delightful sound can be captured and played back for music
lovers. A concert of sow squeals and Sinatra swoons should
be a sellout.
Be perspicacious!
This: perspicacious .. .
sharp! NoDoz keeps you
awake and alert—safelyl
Not this: a student who
drowses over books no matter
how much sleep he gets.
If you sometimes find studying soporific (and who doesn’t?), the word
to remember is NoDoz.® NoDoz perks you up in minutes, with the
same safe awakener found in coffee or tea. Yet NoDoz
is faster, handier, more reliable. Absolutely
non-habit-forming, NoDoz is sold
everywhere without prescription. So, ! *
to keep perspicacious during study and ' s " Vs ^
exams—and while driving, too— k
always keep NoDoz in proximity.
The safe stay awake tablet—available everywhere. Another fine product of Grove Laboratories.

Chest benefit from the fund, also;
10 per cent goes to the Brazos
County Tuberculosis Association,
a second 10 per cent to the Col
lege Station Community Chest,
and a third 10 per cent to the
March of Dimes. The remaining 70
per cent is retained in the Aggie
Chest.
The Student Senate, sponsoring
body of Campus Chest, has boosted
incentive this year by offering a
“100 per cent” certificate to each
dorm and cadet unit that has all
its members donating. A brass
plaque will be provided for the
unit or dorm having the highest
average, or most donated per man.
More information on Campus
Chest will be available before kick
off time Oct. 23, so it might be ad
visable to set aside a dollar for
the fund today. After the Ft.
Worth Corps Trip, it might be
slightly less accessable. . . . and
there are plenty of places avail
able to hide a dollar from yourself
for five days!

DALLAS (AP) — Men of the
49th Armored Division of the
Texas National Guard, activated
and on regular duty, \yill have
. many night problems to teach
them to fight an unconventional-
type war, their commanding gen
eral said Tuesday.
Maj. Gen. Harley B. West, af
ter conferring with Maj. Gen. D.
W. McGowan, chief of the Na
tional Guard Bureau in Washing
ton, said his men will go through
three months of accelerated
training at Ft. Polk, La. He said
the division will concentrate on
“Ranger-type training.”
At a press conference, West
termed his division a “blue chip
nite” citing it as the only armored
division called to active duty.
West said chances are the unit
will stay at Polk barring further
crises in the international situa
tion. The division is on an active
duty status for at least 12
months.
He'would make no comment on
the status of housing available
for families of troops stationed at
Polk.
The general earlier cautioned
guardsmen to leave their families
at home when they go on active
duty. “There is not enough hous
ing to go around,” he said.
