THE BATTALION CADET SLOUCH Page 2 College Station, Texas Thursday, January 17, 1963 BATTALION EDITORIALS by Jim Earle Best Possible Step, But... The Memorial Student Center Council probably took the best possible step Monday night in agreeing to ask for a graduate school representative to fill the one remaining seat on the 15-member council. A Student Senate representative has always filled the now vacant seat, but the senate had previously decided not to send a representative to the MSC governing group. For over a year, the two groups were in disagreement over the council position, but now maybe the fog has cleared and the council will be able to operate at full capacity. Filling the vacant seat was mandatory because a majori ty of eight students over seven faculty-staff-former student members is required by the council’s constitution. The Battalion will nevei’ be able to see a real reason for the long-standing disagreement between the senate and the council, but now maybe the two groups will be able to function without having to worry about each other. It is only regret- able that the two must operate apart from each other, and not together. What Does He Want? Representative David Haines’ vow to seek legislation admitting coeds to A&M came as no real surprise, since the young Aggie ex had said during his campaign that he favored admitting girls to the college. Haines’ latest proposal, however, could create almost as many problems as the entire coed issue has already created through the years. Haines said he would seek the admission of coeds on a day student basis, but failed to define what he meant by “day student.” . . It’s our newest tradition—keepin’ Sully warm!” As the college now operates, day students are all students who do not live in campus dormitories. Haines, however, supposedly wants the passage of his proposal to give Bryan- College Station girls a chance to attend A&M. In other words, if Haines’ suggestion were to become law as now stated, any girl in the world could attend A&M as long as she did not live in a campus dormitory. Possibly a definition of terms is called for before anyone really knows what our representative wants. Nikita Talks...

Ronnie Bookman Van Conner EDITOR Managing Editor Sports Editor Dan Louis, Gerry Brown News Editors Jim Butler. Adrian Adair Assistant Sport, Editors Ronnie Fann Photographer Kent Johnston, Glenn Dromgoole Staff Writers •By J. M. ROBERTS Associated Press News Analyst Soviet Premier Khrushchev has warned Red China that she would be mighty small potatoes in a nuclear war involving the United States, has staged a pep meeting for the East German Commu nists, and left Soviet relations with the West unchanged. He continues to back away from any real crisis over West Berlin, Satisfying himself with a typical campaign promise that Communist East Germany will eventually take over all Ger many. He has softened previous proc lamations about Soviet interfer ence in individual class wars. He still claims to have earned a profit from last year’s adventure in Cuba. He defends what the Chinese call his backdown. But it is obvious that he will not forget the lessons taught by the United States in that inci dent. By admitting openly that com munism cannot expand by war, and by recognizing a lack of ur gency regarding a Berlin settle ment, he probably is only asking the West not to push him while he is hurting. He further divorces himself from Cuba’s Fidel Castro, who only Tuesday night plumped for the Peking’ line that revolution must be carried forward by war. In effect he warns the East Germans not to expect the Soviet Union to use her big weapons against West Germany and France because East Germany would be hit, too. But his hardest point was di rected against Peking with his reminder that the United States had the capacity for killing 700 million to 800 million people. Since only about 200 million of these could be in the Soviet Un ion, the inference is only too obvious. He said the Soviet Union was stepping on the economic heels of the United States, a slight exaggeration, to say the least. But the reference might cause a lot of satellite peoples to won der, if the Communist center is doing so well, what’s happening to their share. East Germans, in particular, are not doing so well at all. All the olive branches Khrush chev held out to the West are old and withered by previous refu sals.

From coast to coast, and particularly in the Midwest, student bodies were quarantined from a variety of political heresies.” This statement was made by. Professor William W. Van Al- styne of Ohio State University Law School in the January issue of the “University of Pennsyl vania Law Review.” Van Al- styne’s article considers the ex tent to which the constitution re stricts the right of state univer sity officials to bar controversial speakers from campus. The author points out that “a considerable number of guest lec turers, formally invited to state Bulletin Board Hometown Clubs El Paso club will meet at 7:30 p.m. in Room 106 of the Aca demic Building.

(The first gravest problem is of course, the recent outbreak of moult among sorority house canaries.) Let us today look into the causes of inferiority feelings and their possible cures. Psychologists divide inferiority feelings into tliree principal categories: 1. Physical inferiority, 2. Mental inferiority. 3. Financial inferiority. (A few say there is also a fourth category: ichthyological inferiority—a feeling that other people have prettier fish- but I believe this is common only along the coasts and in the Great Lakes area.) Let us start with the feeling of physical inferiority, perhaps the easiest to understand. Naturally we are inclined to feel inferior to the brawny football captain or the beautiful home coming queen. But we should not. Look at all the people, neither brawny nor beautiful, who have made their marks in the world. Look at Napoleon. Look at Socrates. Look at Caesar, Look at Lassie. L FOR PE APPROVE 1 J v mM ^ mklmi fa fed. inferior What I mean is that you can’t always tell what’s inside a package by looking at the outside. (Sometimes, of course, you can. Take Marlboro Cigarettes, for example. Just one glance at that jolly red-and-white package—so bright and pert —so neat but not gaudy—so perfectly in place whether you are at a formal dinner or a beach picnic—so invariably correct for any time, clime, or condition—one look, I say, at this paragon of packs and you know it has to contain cigarettes of absolute perfection. And you are right! That pure white Marlboro filter, that fine, flavorful blend of Marlboro tobaccos, will give you a smoke to make the welkin ring, whatever that is. So those of you who have just been sitting and admiring your Marlboro packs since the beginning of the semester, why don’t you open a pack and light one? Light a cigarette, I mean- not the package. Then you can settle back and smoke your Marlboro and, at the same time, continue to gaze rapturously at the pack. Thus you will be twice as happy as you are if that is possible.) But I digress. Let us turn now to the second category- mental inferiority. A lot of people think they are dumber than other people. This is not so. It must be remembered that there are different kinds of intelligence. Take, for instance, the clas sic case of the Sigafoos brothers, Claude and Sturbridge, stu dents at Wake Forest. It was always assumed that Claude was the more intelligent just because he knew more than Stur bridge about the arts, the sciences, the social sciences, the hu manities, and like that. Sturbridge, on the other hand, was ten times smarter than Claude when it came to tying granny knots. But no matter; everybody looked down on “Stupid Sturbridge,” as they called him and looked up at “Clever Claude,” as they called him. But who do you think turned out to be the smart one when their granny almost got loose and ran away? You guessed it—good old Stupid Sturbridge. We arrive now at the final category, financial inferiority. One way to deal with this condition is to incrAse your income. You can, for example, become a fence. Or you can pose for a life class, if your college is well heated. But a better way to handle financial inferiority is to accept it philosophically. Look on the bright side of poverty. True, others may have more money than you have, but look at all the things you have that they oWi—debts, for instance, and hunger cramps. And what about friendship? You don’t need money to have friends, and let me tell you something, good people: the older you get the more you will realize that nothing is so precious as friendship, and the richest man in the world is the one with the most money, © ines Maishuim«» * * * Rich or poor, you can all afford the pleasure of Marlbordi available at popular prices in all 50 states of the Union.
