Hlhe program at the A&M Ad junct centers around classes in English, mathematics and physical ■ucation for freshmen. Students have the advantage of a camp atmosphere, and there are intra mural sports, fishing, swimming aid boating in the Llano River. ■ But many students do not have time to fully appreciate the beau ties of the Hill Country. Studies keep them busy. The Adjunct is the kind of place where a professor wee complained that the chirping of crickets interfered with his work. ■ “BASIC GOAL of the program ■ bridging the gap between high I Bchool and college,” S. A. Kerley, fii "Ctor of the Counseling a”'! Testing Center, said. He also is Responsible for the Adjunct pro gram. B“We try to make it popular to learn to study,” added W. D. Ku- taeh, director of the Adjunct. He has been at the Adjunct each sum- (jkcept two since the program opened in 1951. He became direc tor in 1959. I An intensive study of the grades of Adjunct freshmen and those on lid main campus for the first six Weeks of the 1.962 long session Showed Adjunct students achieved fig’nificantly more, Kutach noted. ■ ORIGINALLY THE Adjunct llaced emphasis upon remedial Bourses, but this is no longer true. Mathematics 121, analytic geome- and calculus, for example, was [ first taught at the Adjunct. In 1963 the Adjunct will enlarge ■acilities by construction of a elass- loom building. This will ease to ome degree a tight space situation. Enrollment is planned for 170 freshmen this year instead of 120 as in the past. . About 60 advanced students are also at the Adjunct each summer for field courses in geology and civil engineering. APPLICANTS FOR the Adjunct are taken on a first come basis aft er being admitted as regular stu dents at A&M. Enrollment has hit capacity in recent years with all spaces filled weeks before the first term starts. Teachers at the Adjunct are regular members of the A&M facul ty. “I think it’s an ideal teaching situation because the students work closer with the instructor than in any other college situation,” Dr. Lee M. Martin of the Department of English faculty, said.

THE BATTALION Thursday, Februai’y 14, 1963 College Station, Texas Page 3 African Students Battle In Bulgaria: VIENNA, Austria 6P)—The dis content of African students behind the Iron Curtain erupted into a street battle with Communist po lice in Sofia, Bulgaria, informed sources said Wednesday.

State Educational Drama Group Plans Intercollegiate Festival The Texas Educational Theater Association will stage a festival in 1964 as a showcase for dramatic productions from various campuses, Association President C. K. Esten has announced. He is a member of the English faculty and director of the Aggie Players. “We want to begin relatively small and build the drama festival into a big thing,” Esten said. The association members began plans for the festival during their annual meeting here recently. Jim Bains of McMurry College will serve as chairman of the drama festival committee, seven other committeemen are to be named. The committee will begin detailed plans for the festival. More than 50 persons fi’om cam puses throughout Texas attended the meeting here. Dr. Katharine Boyd of Sul Ross State College was elected to be a two-year term as secretary. The association will meet next Feb. 7-8 on the Texas Lutheran College campus. It is known, for example, that more than 100 African students in Moscow have applied at the U.S. Embassy for help in transferring to American schools. They give the same reason— disillusion with the life under com munism as compared with the promises made to them before they left Africa. This appeared to be the basic cause of the riot in which com petent authorities here said 200 African students battled Commu nist police. Scores of the youths were reported injured by club- wielding - militia. The fight broke out in Sofia’s main street, the Lenin Boulevard. Carrying luggage, the students stopped traffic for 15 minutes and then fought police. The police finally forced the students into buses and hauled them off, presumably to jail, in formants said. The students have been trying to establish a union for the past year to assist them in their com plaints, which include poor hous ing, poor food, crowded facilities, political indoctidnation at the ex pense of their studies, and diffi culties with the Russian language. w ilia nc ® ANNUAL llll ANNIVERSARY SALE! 1111 Register For BIG FREE PRIZES of BIG BONUS STAMPS NOTHING TO BUY JUST REGISTER Light Crust 5 Maryland Club Del Monte or Food Club Flour Coffee Catsup Sugar ELNA CUT GREEN BEANS SWEET POTATOES Hl-C ORANGE ADE Lb.
