Baylor May Elect
Coed Yell Leaders
Baylor students will vote next
Thursday to decide if coeds will
be eligible for election as school
yell leaders. Baylor is the only
Southwest Conference school oth
er than A&M that doesn’t have
girl cheerleaders.
If students vote to have coed
cheerleaders, girls will be allowed
to compete in Baylor’s May Day
yell leader election.
Three reasons have been given
for the vote:
1. The question has not re
ceived proper consideration in the
past.
2. The last several votes on
the issue have been very close.
3. Political manipulation have
distorted the issue in the past.
UT Students
Claim ‘Foul’
Four Texas University stu
dents, in a letter to the editor of
the Daily Texan, claim that they
were refused admittance to last
week’s Texas - A&M basketball
game even though there were va
cant seats in G. Rollie White
Coliseum.

Spring enrollment at Texas
Tech surpassed all previous rec
ords last week when 10,235 stu
dents signed up for classes. And
late registration was still in
progress when the record figure
was announced.
The spring figure is second
only to last fall’s all-time record
enrollment total.
Tech officials expressed little
official surprise at the record
number.
New Innovation
To Old Twist...
Free Advertising
Another gimmick has been de
vised to promote Texas’ tourist
industry.
Rep. Myra Banfield of Fort
Bend County, representing Dis
trict 30, has advocated that Tex
as vehicle license plates be im
printed with the words "vacation
state” to focus attention on the
state’s tourist industry and at
tractions.
The representative commented:
“My contention is that the ve
hicle plates offer an untapped
potential as a cost-free medium
of advertising which could be
utilized to good advantage. Other
states have long been using this
medium of free advertising as
their method of promotion.”
She added that the highway
department is being asked to or
der the imprinted plates.

CADET SLOUCH
by Jim Earle SCIENCE AND MORALITY—2
late for the game and that ticket
vendors “refused to sell any
more tickets, standing room or
otherwise, no matter what
amount of money, wampum,
chickens, hogs, cows and other
farm animals were offered to
them.”
“Conduct like this could pos
sibly be passed off, except for
the fact that there were empty
seats inside, and if allowed en
trance, there were many exits
through which a student could
view the game,” the irate stu
dents noted.
According to the letter writers,
even people who had already pur
chased tickets and had left the
coliseum to lock their cars were
refused re-admission.

(Second of a series)
A Beneficial Combination
In an age when science and
morality are topics of daily dis
cussion, it is well to have a clear
understanding of each and of their
relation to one another.
Where the nature of science is
not properly understood, one may
win many an argument simply
by declaring, “It’s a scientific
fact!” This is a vague statement,
generally unsupported, based on
erroneous opinion that science is
fixed, absolute and certain. Noth
ing could be further from the
truth.
For example, at one time a
Swedish chemist named Arrhen
ius received the Nobel Prize for
his electrolytic theory of dissocia
tion. A few years later another
scientist named Debye received
the same prize for disproving the
theory of Arrhenius! It is evi
dent, therefore, that “scientific
facts” have a habit of changing,
sometimes overnight.

AUSTIN—If the rest of the
Senate feels like the Senate com
mittee on constitutional amend
ments, the poll tax may be on
its way to extinction.
The committee gave a nine-to-
two approval of Laredo Sen. Ab
raham Kazen’s bill to submit to
the people a constitutional
amendment that would kill the
poll tax as of Feb. 1, 1965.
The two “no” votes in com
mittee came from Sen. George
Parkhouse of Dallas and Sen.
Galloway Calhoun Jr. of Tyler.

If Kazen’s bill passes the full
