Report To NASA
Called ‘Favorable’
A report on Baylor’s facilities
for sharing in the nation’s space
program has been called “favor
able” by representatives of the
five departments being studied
by the National Aeronautics and
Space Administration.
Departments cited in the report
were physics, chemistry, geology,
biology and psychology.
The report, presented to NASA
last week, outlined Baylor’s en
largement of laboratory facilities
in the new $2.5 million Marrs
McLean chemistry and physics
building and the projected bio
logy - psychology - geology -
mathematics building now being
planned.
Rice Sets Vote
On Honor System
The student body at Rice will
vote April 1 on a proposed a-
mendment to the school’s Honor
System Constitution. The amend
ment would schuffle class posi
tions on the Honor Council.
Backers of the amendment have
stressed that council members
need as much experience as possi
ble.
An examination of past years
shows that experience has been
lacking; that of six possible re
turnees to council positions, the
average during the past seven
years has been three; and in six
of those seven years, members
who had served at least one year
on the council were not returned.

The Battalion:
TCU Withdraws
From TISA
TCU’s Student Congress voted
last week to withdraw the school
from the Texas Intercollegiate
Student Association (TISA).
The move, which passed by a
25-1 margin, left the congress
with means necessary for future
reaffiliation. A report by a TCU
delegate to a TISA convention
brought the discussion to a vote.
The delegate reported that he was
unimpressed with TISA and
thought the $200 membership fee
could be better spent on the Fort
Worth campus.
Tonight at 7:30 p.m. in Room
231 of the Chemistry Building,
the student government committee
of the Civilian Student Council
will have a meeting for all civil
ian students interested in student
politics. This is a commendable
endeavor — if it results in any
thing-. But I don’t think it will.
I believe this program will go the
way of most other civilian-spon
sored ideas — into confusion,
chaos and final collapse.
rule the student government.
Then why don’t they? Because
they have no program, no issue,
nothing to generate interest.
They can criticize the Corps and
its domination of the school and
student government, but they can
offer no superior alternative of
their own.
then nothing will happen. And
perhaps it’s for the best. If past
experience is any indication of
the future, then I fear for A&M
if the civilians do take over.
But there is a reason for this
failure of civilian projects. It
is caused by a lack of dynamic
and enthused leadership (result
ing largely from the manner in
which top civilian leaders are
chosen), a lack of organization
and mainly by the apathy dis
played by the civilian students
toward anything concerning them
or their school. The civilians are
in the majority and they want to
The Corps stands for leadersip,
individual development, respect
for authority and perhaps even
chivalry. The Corpg is responsi
ble for the many traditions of
A&M, and to the citizens of
Texas, the Corps represents A&M.
If my analysis of the situation
is wrong, then let the civilians
prove it.

farmers fared well last year.
Their cash receipts and new in
come showed increases.
Average 1962 net income, as
shown by a recent Agriculture
Department report, was $3,870,
up three per cent from the $3,755
in 1961. The national average
last year was $3,498 up about
four per cent from $3,360.
Farmers in Texas’ neighboring
states showed a wide range in
income. The figures for 1962,
with the per cent change from
1961: Arkansas — $3,7^5, up
three per cent; Louisiana — $2,-
723, up fifteen per cent; Okla
homa — $2,253, down eight per
cent; New Mexico — $5,547, up
thirty two per cent.
Total cash receipts of Texas
farmers amounted to $2,571,590,-
000 in 1962, compared with $2,-
530,315,000 in 1961. The totals
included payments under federal
farm programs. For 1962 these
payments amounted to $148,461,-
000.

What do the civilians stand
for? At best they’re a refuge
for freshmen from the first dis
cipline of their lives; a shelter
from the extracurricular activi
ties and responsibilities of college
life, and at worse, a home for
the scroungy. A rather nega
tive program it would seem.
And so at the meeting of the
SGCCSC, a pitiful minority of
the civilian student body will
show up. They will plan the
overthrow of the Corps; they
will speak of the “rights” of the
majority; they will promise to
campaign for each other; and
