Curry said Dallasites and people other than students created the disturbances. THE AREA IN the vicinity of the intersection of Akard and Commerce streets in downtown Dallas was the center of pre-game activities of many fans last Fri day night. Curry said the police depart ment study was based on arrests made in the 100 to 300 blocks of South Akard and the 1400 and 1900 blocks of Commerce streets. “Of the 70 arrests studied,” Curry said, “47 involved persons who live in Dallas and 23 involv ed out-of-town offenders. Ages of many violators made it strongly improbable that they were stu dents.” CURRY SAID that 26 of the arrests made by police Friday night in the downtown area had been handled by the police de partment before. Sixteen of those arrested had been taken into cus- today at least four times in the past and one had a record of 44 arrests. “It is obviously unfair to blame the students of the universities in volved with all the difficulties we encountered,” said Curry.

A&M University Professors To Attend History Conference A&MUniversity Lecture Series To Open Friday Hungarian Exile To Address Group Dr. Ferenc Nagy, prime minister of Hungary before the Communists forced him into exile in 1947, will open the new University Lectures series at A&M University Friday at 7:30 p. m. in the Chemistry Lecture Room. “This Significance of Central and Eastern Europe in Present World Politics” is Dr. Nagy’s topic. The Hungarian exile is the first of four persons scheduled to lecture at A&M during the series. Dr. Nagy came to the United States in 1947 after being forced to flee his native country. While in exile he served as chairman of the Assembly of Captive European Nations in 1961-62. DR. FERENC NAGY Since 1947 he also traveled' throughout the world, includ ing 40 trips to Europe. While prime minister of Hungary Dr. Nagy visited London, Moscow, Paris and Wash ington at the invitation of the respective governments. CS United Chest Far Short Of Goal HE HAS PUBLISHED articles in national magazines and is au thor of “Struggle Behind the Iron Curtain.” The former prime minister’s political career is traced to 1930 when he was among the founders of the Independent Smallholders’ Party of Hungary. He also served as national secretary of the party. In 1939 he was elected to the Hungarian Parliament and two years later was a founder and president of the Hungarian Pea sants’ Association. THE NAZIS imprisoned Nagy in 1944. Following his release he was named president of the Hun garian Parliament. In 1946 he became prime mini ster but was forced into exile the next year. The University of California and the Bloomfield College and Semin ary have awarded him honorary doctorates. With the 10-day drive scheduled to close Thursday, the College Station United Chest stands far short of its $18,000 goal. Dr. Chris H. Groneman, cam paign director, Wednesday report ed $10,975.44, or 61 per cent, of the anticipated budget had been raised. “Unless all of us get behind the drive in the fading hours, we will not go over the top,” he pointed out. “The current campaign total falls below the three-fourths mark Rookies To Study Police Techniques At MSC Conclave Modem methods and techniques of law enforcement will be stress ed at a four-week school for po lice chiefs and rookies at A&M University Oct. 21 through Nov. 15. achieved at this time last year. In addition, this year f s budget is $1,000 more than last year’s.” “It is imperative that the volun teer workers contact all prospects in their respective departments or agencies,” Groneman urged. “The United Way is an effort to pre vent repeated solicitations during the year with separate drives for the different vital agencies.” Three more College Station groups earned silver certificates when all employes contributed to the United Chest. They are the Courtney Humble Service Station, University National Bank and the A&M Journalism Department. Less than 10 per cent of Texas A&M University departments and agencies have given amounts equal ling last year’s gifts, Groneman reported. “Let’s make the two remaining reports count and go over the top,” he appealed. “We did it last year and we can do it again.” New York Mirror Ceases Publication NEW YORK <A>) — The New York Mirror, a morning tabloid and the nation’s second newspaper in daily circulation, announced Tuesday night that is is ceasing publication.

Gifts to the fund for excellence were made by 557 former students of A&M, or 80 per cent of the exes from the Bryan area. Richard Weirus, director of the Former Students Development Fund, attributed the success of the drive to the fact that many contributions were made by under graduates and members of the fa culty who are not graduates of A&M.
