THE BATTALION Page 2 College Station, Texas Friday, October 26, 1962 CADET SLOUCH by Jim Earle | Looking Back . . . At This Week Crisis Holds Campus Interest The sudden U. S. blackade o* Communist Cuba held almost un divided interest on campus this week, especially among ROTC students who face near-future military service and the many faculty-staff members in reserve military components. Near-unanimous backing of President Kennedy’s toughened stand was voiced, but concern prevailed all week — especially over the initial encounter of Rus sian ships and U. S. barricaders. When this roadblock was ap parently surpassed, attention turned to the UN Security Coun cil, where efforts are being made to arrange negotiations between Russia and the U. S. Sweetheart. The committee will work spec ifically on a criteria for the sweetheart and the formation of a student selection committee to name finalists. Texas Woman’s University stu dents will use the new criteria in electing semifinalists. No changes are planned in the make-up of the final sweetheart selection committee. This stu dent group selects the sweet heart from the finalists. General disapproval of present methods brought about the pre sent study. TWU students have complained they have no idea what type sweetheart A&M real ly wants, and Aggies have voiced disapproval because a group of MSC staff members has been se lecting- the finalists. Job Calls Commission Asks Boost In Tuition The State Commission on High er Education agreed Tuesday to seek a 100 per cent increase in tuition fees for all state col leges and universities. Such an increase would increase tuition from $50 to $100 per semester. The proposal first must be passed by the next session of the state legislature, -^hich con venes in January. The commission also: 1. Approved $162 milion in bud gets for the 20 schools — $4 million above what was pre viously recommended. 2. Raised salaries of all the schools’ presidents. 3. Added $800,000 in appropri ations for medical schools. 4. Ordered a study to eliminate high school-type courses from college programs. “ . . .

The entire student body of Baylor Univer sity hopes this will be' a plea surable and exciting weekend for both of us. Circle K, men’s service club, would also like to take this op portunity to give you our person al welcome to the campus and to the activities of this Saturday. We hope your stay in Waco will be a truly enjoyable one. Baylor Circle K ★ ★ ★ Editor, The Battalion; Maybe I have my duties as a yell leader all wrong. If I do I stand corrected by “Name With held” in the Oct. 24 Battalion. I feel when I can get the 12th Man to yell loud enough so that the opposing team has to ask for quiet, I’m doing my job, and the 12th Man is doing his. I believe this not to be dis courteous to the other team, but an expression of the faith, con fidence and loyality that the 12th Man has in that Fightin’ Texas Aggie team. If our friend, who so conveni ently withheld his name, had looked at the yell leaders, he would have seen us give the troops “rest” as the Tech team broke its huddle and seen us maintain this “rest” until the play started. I quote from the letter: “I be came thoroughly disgusted with the 12th Man and the so-call ed ‘yell leaders’.” All I can say to this is that no one asked “Name Withheld” to “sit” in the Aggie section, and if he doesn’t want to yell, I’m sure he’ll be welcome in the Arkansas section, because come Nov. 3, if I have something to say about it, that 12th Man is going to make that Tech game sound like a church service.
