CADET SLOUCH

| 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.
“ . . . There are more advantages to being married during
your senior year than any other!”

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.
