Pags 2 THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Friday, February 8, 1963 CADET SLOUCH by Jim Earle I Looking Back . i At This Week Spring Enrollment Shows Increase A new semester began this week, with the rush and frustra tion of another registration ses sion still far from completed. And incomplete reports by mid week indicated that total enroll ment would show an increase over enrollment at the same time last year. By Wednesday, Registrar H. L. Heaton reported 7,191 students registered. Last year spring en rollment totaled 6,782. And re gistration proceedings are still underway — students may re gister through Saturday and have until next Wednesday to drop courses. Dean of Student James P. Han- nigan also disclosed that the drop out total was not as high as many persons had first anticipated. Complete figures in this category are also incomplete. Housing problems were report edly held to a minimum, with stu dents living three-to-a-room only on personal request. event of the week was the gigan tic Space Fiesta, which opened a two and a half week-long stand in the Memorial Student Center. Displays, ranging from a model of the Telstar satellite to an other model of an astronaut’s cap- | sule, are scattered throughout the MSC. The exhibits, with a few exceptions, will remain on dis play through Feb. 22. In addition three prominent speakers have addressed the pub lic in Space Fiesta appearances, with a fourth speech on tap to night. Aif added attraction is the cur rent appearance of six Congress men — Olin E. Teague, R. Walter Riehlman, James Fulton, Joseph Karth, Emilio Q. Daddario and Thomas G. Morris — all of whom are members of a House sub committee on manned space flight. | Bishop Defends Literatumwm In Moral Censorship Fig h ^ mi ^ “ . . . And every time they inspect his room, he plays th’ national anthem!” GALVESTON (A 3 ) — The bish op of the Episcopal Diocese of Texas said Thursday night there is a curious and potentially dang erous resurgence of book censor ship throughout the nation. The Rt. Rev. John E. Hines of Houston said there is some indi cation church educational and pastoral agencies have “dropped the ball” in developing youth’s conscience. Bishop Hines spoke at the open ing session of the three-day 114th annual council meeting of the diocese. The Southeast Texas Council extends inland from the Gulf Coast to the Austin, Waco, and Longview areas. The bishop said the resurgence of censorship coincides with fears raised by alien ideologies. “And it also coincides with in creasing pre-marital sexual ex perience, especially in the college age group,” he said. “. . . The church would do well to encourage and provide for young people in cooperation with parents a program of education BRITAIN FIGHTS BACK UT Wins Big Cage Highlighter The new semester started on a sour note for Coach Bob Rogers’ basketballers when league-lead ing Texas riddled the Aggie de fense from long range in tak ing a vital 70-59 SWC cage con test in G. Rollie White Coliseum. The loss dropped the Cadets into a tie for third place, three big games behind the galloping Longhorns. The defeat was also A&M’s first in G. Rollie White in the last 31 games. Guards Jimmy Gilbert and Jim my Puryear led the Steer long- range attack with 3 and 19 points, respectively. The league leaders hit a resounding 55.1 per cent of their floor shots. High-scoring Aggie guard Ben nie Lenox led all scorers with 26 points. Lee Walker, with 15 points, was the only other Cadet to tally in double figures. French Veto Involves U. S. By J. M. ROBERTS Associated Press News Analyst In less than 10 days since the disruption of her negotiations with the European Common Mar ket at Brussels’ Britain has be gun to fight back. Because the tactics she intends to use closely parallel United States trade policy, including op eration through the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade at Geneva and worldwide reduc tion of tarrif barriers, the United States inevitably will be involved. Job Calls Britain does not foreclose even tual membership in the Common Market. She expects the five members who supported her ap plication to see to it that France shall not use the market as a weapon against her. The United States expects the same for her self.

Britain also is likely to be aided by Europe’s reaction against Gaullist domination policy, which may well forestall France’s effort to tie into the market her former colonies in Africa which have now become associates. The relation of these countries to the market has never been finally settled, and Common Market aid for them may not develop as originally en visaged. than $1 billion invested in them by the government and private business. Britain can be expected to go after the business of these coun tries where possible, as well as in all the countries from which Eu rope draws its raw materials. The United States, also in need of straightening out her trade bal ances, may also move in areas from which she has stood back heretofore to avoid being accused of attempting to replace her allies in Europe’s former colonies. In addition to her dependence on help from members of the Common Market, and in addition to the use of governmental trade policies, the British expect to mo bilize a powerful private business core within the bloc to avoid the Common Market’s outer tariff walls.
