Still One Chance Left
For Students To Vote
Those students interested in having something to say
about what might take place on the campus next year still
have a chance to do something about it.
' The one chance remaining is the runoff elections which
will be conducted Tuesday. However, we are afraid that
many of our students will once again pass up the opportunity
to select their campus leaders.
While there has been an encouraging group of candidates
seeking class offices, the number of people which turned out
to vote Wednesday was disappointing.
With more than 7,500 students on the campus this
semester, the 1,552 persons who did vote will not represent
even 20 per cent of the student body. However, we would
feel safe in assuming that probably more than 80 per cent
of the students have complained about at least one thing
that has taken place on campus this year.
t
We want to same those who are too lazy to walk to the
MSC to vote that they can expect no sympathy when they
discover next year that they have a representative who is
failing them.
Editor,
The Battalion:
I am Mike Marlow, and as of
last Wednesday’s preliminary
elections, I am one of the three
Juniors who are in the runoff
elections for senior yell leader.
Since none of the candidates
have had the opportunity of hold
ing the position of yell leader
in the past, experience will be a
great asset to the winners. I
feel that I have had some amount
of experience in that I was head
cheerleader at the all male high
school that I attended and I also
served as fish yell leader during
my freshman year.
In my opinion, if A&M is to
keep its traditions and its “Old
Army” Spirit, many changes will
have to be initiated next year.
Among these, the most important
concerns yell practices. In pre
vious years is seems that the
blooming Spirit of the underclass
men has been deteriorating rather
tha*n flourishing due to the tech
nique in which the yell practices
have been handled. After all,
who can be motivated to yell,
when he is constantly being told
that nothing he does is right.
Also, I feel that variety, even
though fairly difficult to obtain,
can be injected into the yell
practices, especially mid-night
yell practices, if a real effort is
made to do so.
I can assure you that if I am
elected nothing short of expulsion
will keep me from supporting the
views of my class, trying to rank
the 1963-64 year high in the an-

To Pose Problem
“ ... He goes through these withdrawal pains after every

Special To The Battalion
DALLAS—With a current un
employment rate of some 13 per
cent among the nation’s teen, gers,
Texas faces the prospect of having
nearly 67,000 young persons in the
14-19 age group added to its labor
force between 1960 and 1965.
Researchers for the U. S. De
partment of Labor came up with
the figures. They based them on
the decennial census reports and
data prepared by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics.
For the first five years of the
1960’s the Texas labor force aged
14-19 will be swelled nearly 20 per
cent. Their total in 1960 was 338,-
900. By 1965 the indicated number
is 405,400.
The full impact of the youth em
ployment problem is thus just
ahead for Texas. The last half of
the decade involves an increase of
only 7 per cent in the state’s labor
force aged 14-19.
While school enrollment has
picked up substantially since 1950,
fewer than half of the 14-19 year-
old labor force in Texas was en
rolled in 1960. The 1950 figure
was 27.8 per cent. Ten years later
it was 45 per cent.
Secretary of Labor W. Willard
Wirtz, in testimony before a Sen
ate subcommittee, noted that un
employment is concentrated among
unskilled workers, and that it is
over twice as high among the
yotinger worker group.
But many young people, he said,
do not have the resources to obtain
the kind of education demanded by
automation and the space age. In
1961, for example, some 12 million
youngsters were in families whose
total money income was less than
$3,000.

I, Rod Rowland, would like to
thank those of the Class of ’65
who supported me in the election
for MSC Council Representative
last Wednesday. Next Tuesday,
I will again be a candidate in
the runoffs. I sincerely feel that
I can give the Class of ’65 the
kind of representation next year
that our class deserves. 1 hope
that you will again consider me
Tuesday when you cast your vote.

My name is Tommy Harrison
and I am running for yell leader
of the Class of ’65. Because I
was a fish yell leader last year,
I believe I have as much ex
perience or know as much about
Aggie yell leader’s duties as
anyone else. I think I have en
ough Aggie Spirit in me to be
a good yell leader so I hope you
will consider casting your vote
for me, Tommy Harrison, in Tues
day’s run-off election.

Editor,

work with diligence and vigor to
promote the interests of our class.
Your support in the runoff elect

Editor,
The Battalion:
The position of Head Yell Lead
er is perhaps one of the most
important on our campus, for this
man sets by his actions and exam
ple the Spirit, either bad or good,
for the entire student body. It
is very important that the man
elected Head Yell Leader be capa
ble of producing a high degree
of the right kind of Aggie Spirit.
This man will represent our
school at many meetings of the
schools of the Southwest Con
ference and will make decisions
duirng the year that will affect
us all. In short, he is the student
voice in our many athletic events.
It is my belief that we need
a reliable, dedicated person for
this position who can think clear
ly and rationally in all situatons
that may arise. Along with these
qualities this man must truely
have the Fighting Texas Aggie
Spirit that we all believe in, and
he must be capable of instilling
that Spirit in our new students
as well as the Aggies that have
been here for three years.
Such a man capable of fulfilling
this role is Jim Schnabel. Jim
has been for three years one of
the hardest working members of
the class of ’64. He is dedicated
to any job that he is given, and
he always efficiently carries out
his tasks. One of Jim’s finest
traits is that he will stand up for
what he believes and will stand up
for the Aggie Spirit and tradi
tions that are all so much a part
of A&M. Jim knows his way
around our school and could ef
fectively represent the class of
’64 as well as our school in all
areas that the Head Yell Leader
position would carry him. He
has many good ideas that he
sincerely believes in about the
Aggie Spirit, especially the fresh
man sph'it and the building of
the largest bonfire in Texas
A & M’s history.
In thinking about this very
important position, consider Jim
Schnabel very carefully. He is
a man capable and ready to
represent the Class of 1964 our
senior year in a way that will
bring credit to our class and to
our school as well as generating
the Fighting Aggie Spirit that
we want.
