Study Begins
Of Dining Halls
The Student Senate began a
study Thursday of meal arrange
ments in the college dining halls.
A member of the senate, Shelly
Veselka, met with dining hall of
ficials during a meal-planning
session and offered suggestions
for more random meal arrange
ments rather than regular oc
curence of the same meals.
The meeting came as a result
of a Senate discussion with John
G. Peniston, dining hall food man
ager.
Peniston explained that undei’
the present system each student
is fed for $1.50 per day. Only 15
minutes is allowed for serving.
The food manager explained
that changes are being consider
ed and that the dining halls
might serve cafeteria-style after
new dormitories are completed.
This arrangement would allow
serving from 11 a.m. - 2 p.m.,
with classes being scheduled dur
ing the noon hour.
Fish Hit 100
Cage Point Total
The Fish basketball team made
the year’s first victory a mem
orable one Tuesday night by rack
ing up 100 points against the
Allen Academy Ramblers in G.
Rollie White Coliseum.
Incomplete records indicate that
the 100 points is probably a
school record. The highest var
sity point production is 95, achi
eved last year against Centenary.
Four cagers hit in double fi
gures to lead the scoring parade.
Billy Atkinson registered 21,
John Beasley had 20, Dick String-
fellow countered 19 and Dick Rec
tor had 13.

Editor,
The Battalion:
The local press coverage for
what has been called “one of
the great days in our institution’s
history” — I mean, of course, the
convocation seems to me to
have been remarkably inept, be
ing relegated to the status of
a second lead to the reporting ac
cording- that symbol of education
excellence, the bonfire.
One would expect the local
house organ at'least to have ack
nowledged that there were four
major talks in the forenoon, yet
I have looked in vain for any
mention of the speeches delivered
at the meetings of the schools of
agriculture, arts and sciences and
veterinary medicine. And in the
two other newspapers I have ex
amined rather closely, one local
and one metropolitan daily, only
the talks delivered before the
schools of engineering and agri
culture were mentioned, the latter
only superficially.
I cannot vouch for the success
of the other three occasions, al
though by word-of-mouth report
the speeches were good and well-
attended, but I can say that the
500 or 600 people in attendance at
the arts and sciences meeting, at
which Dr. F. Champion Ward
spoke on “New Missions for A-
mericans,” heard a thoughtful and
stimulating address of rare qual
ity.
It is to be wished that we
Could stop patting ourselves on
the back long enough to give at
least a summary of what was
said at all the meetings. While
I find it extremely interesting to
know that the world will eventual
ly have satellite communication,
surely this is not the only worth
while thing that was said by
four distinguished men in four
hours before hundreds of people.

the rest of the entire world. How
ever I had to be a bit partial
to Texas because my daughter
is one of the cheerleaders there.
Excusable partiality, I hope.
The reason for this letter,* how
ever, is to express my apprecia
tion of your magnificant band. I
cannot find words adequate
enough to describe my
feelings. It is by all odds the
finest band I have ever seen and
I am proud to be in the same
state with these magnificant
young men of Texas A&M. To
say the least, Mrs. Thomsen and
I were thrilled through and
through.

The Western world will be
watching closely during the next
few months to see whether the
Soviet Union, having confirmed
her political split with Red China
and made at least a partial peace
with Yugoslavia, will resume her
pushing tactics in an easterly or
westerly direction.
The appearance of Yugoslav
Marshal Tito before the Supreme
Soviet represents an outward
achievement, though it may not
be fundamental or complete, of a
goal Soviet Premier Khrushchev
set for himself in the first days
of his accession to power.
It is important not only as a
reweaving of badly tangled Com
munist threads in Europe, but also
among the new nations which
have sometime revolved between
and sometimes within the policies
of India and those of the Bel-
grade-Cairo semi-axis.
It divides Red China from what
we once called Titoism, which set
the example for national Commu
nist independence from Moscow
centralism.
Nobody knows what blandish
ments were offered Tito. Probably
they are primarily a promise of
resumption of a more natural re
lationship between Yugoslavia’s
not-too-viable economy and that
of Eastern Europe, down the
Danube.
Tito probably is paying only
with small lip service in the
Moscow-Peking split, and not giv
ing up any real independence.
Yugoslavia, well remembering-
old wounds, always has been on
the side of the Soviet divisionist
policy toward Germany.-
Andrei A. Gromyko, the Soviet
foreign minister, was chosen to
carry on the discussion of this
matter Thursday where Khrush
chev left off.
Aside from the major effort to
make it appear the Soviet Union
acted in Cuba only against a
threat to peace and intended no
offense — which is correct only
as to the latter part, the action
really having been an effort to
apply political pressure — Ger
many is so far the chief East-
West issue mentioned.
