Page 2 THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Tuesday, November 5, 1963 :§ CADET SLOUCH by Jim Earle Aggie Players Open 18th Regular Season “Problems, problems! Last time I sent three date applica tions and nothing! This time I send six and they all accept!” BATTALION EDITORIALS Campus Chest Drive Start Has Stumbled One of the finest opportunities Aggies have to aid their fellow students and to contribute to every worthwhile cause looks as if it is doomed to failure. The 1963 Campus Chest drive is already past the half-way mark, and only $250 of the goal of $5000 has been reached. The reason? It is obvious. It is the same thing that destroys traditions, institutions and pride. The reason is apathy. The slogan for this year’s Campus Chest is “A Dollar From An Aggie For An Aggie.” Judging from the collections received, there are approximately 250 Aggies who give a damn about their fellow students. This money is used to keep needy students in school who, without help from their fellow students, would have to drop out. This means all students are eligible for aid if needed, and we believe it is the moral obligation of all students to contribute. To date Alan Peterson, chairman of the drive, has had no response at all from the civilians, and except for Squadron 1 and several of the staffs, no returns from the Corps. “True to each other as Aggies can be?” It looks doubt ful.—RLF Read Classifieds Daily Ferreri’s Triangle Restaurant Try Our New SECRETARY SPECIAL Monday Thru Friday The SECRETARY SPECIAL is a quick, low calorie meal which gives you time to shop during your noon hour.

Sports Editor Mike Reynolds, Robert Sims - Staff Writers Juan Tijerina, Herkey Killingsworth Photographers By JOHN WRIGHT Asst. News Editor The curtain lifted on the eigh teenth season of the Aggie Players Monday night with their presentation of the witty comedy “The Constant Wife” by Somer set Maugham. With over 100 persons in at tendance, the opening night pre sented the viewer with drama tic and sophisticated treatment of the dual standards of morality of the house in Harley St. Constance Middleton, married 15 years to the successful sur geon John Middleton, tries to ignore the illicit relationship be tween her husband and one of her friends Marie—Louise Dur ham. Convinced that upper class marriages are nothing but a state of mutual convenience, Constance defends her husbands actions in a plausible and cold ly effective way. When the fiery Durham arrives at the Middleton residence with a cigarette case which he claims was left under his wife’s pillow, he accusses Middleton of being Mairie-Louise’s lover. Ever the “constant wife,” Con stance quickly convinces Dur ham that it was her cigarette case that she left on the bed while gabbing with Marie-Louise. Durham, doubts arrising in his mind, allows himself to be hum bled into begging Marie-Louise’s forgiveness and exits from the scene none the wiser. After he leaves, Constance re veals to her friends and mother that she knew about John Mid dleton’s escapade all along and that she was only performing the duty of a good and faithful wife, —Job Calls— WEDNESDAY Brown Engineering Company, Inc. — Aerospace engineering, electrical engineering, mechani cal engineering, and physics.

C. — A perpetual trophy designed to honor annually the outstanding graduate of the U. S. Army Re serve Officer’s Training Corps from 175,000 student officers in 247 colleges and universities has been announced by the Depart ment of the Army. Presentation of the trophy to the Army was made by Hughes Aircraft Company officials in the office of Secretary of the Army Cyrus R. Vance in the Pentagon. C. Harper Brubaker, vice presi dent, Hughes-Fullerton, Calif., made the presentation for the company. “We are happy to accept this trophy on behalf of the ROTC program which is so vital to maintaining the quality and strength of the Army’s Officers Corps,” Vance said. In presenting the trophy to the Army, Brubaker said, “It is our hope this award will serve to bring greater public recogni tion to the important role played in the American way of life by ROTC graduates.” The trophy stands more than 30 inches tall and weighs more than 100 pounds. It features an interpretation of the eagle from the Great Seal of the United States. The eagle clutches the arrows and oak leaves of tradi tion, while standing astride a book and scroll symbolizing high er learning. Approximately 85 per cent of the second lieutenants on active duty in the Army today are from the ROTC program, and of the general officers on active duty in the Army, 91 are from the ROTC, according to Secretary Vance. The trophy will be awarded an nually by the Secretary of the Army to the outstanding ROTC graduate selected from the candi dates nominated for the award by qualified national colleges and universities. About 1,000 distin guished ROTC military gradu ates accept regular Army com missions each year. Selection of the winner each year will be based upon the in. dividual’s military and acade- mic grades, potential qualities a s an officer, leadership in acade. mic and student-body fields, and demonstrated qualities of disci, pline, courtesy, personality and character. First presentation of the trophy will be made at the end of the ’63-64 school year. Saigon Starts Rebuilding After Weekend Of Battle SAIGON, South Viet Nam (A*) — The military government Monday relaxed martial law cur few in Saigon but tightened rules for government workers. It said those who fail to re port to their jobs without good reason will be charged with de sertion and be punished. Torn by bloody fighting for 18 hours Friday and Saturday, Sai gon was returning to normal. Hours of curfew, established for 7 p.m. to 5 a.m., were eased to the period between midnight and 5 a.m. Former Defense Minister 1 ran Trung Dung, a relative of Presi dent Ngo Dinh Diem, reported the government had given him permission to bury Diem and the latters brother, Nhu in a double funeral. Saigon was beginning to bus tle again with normal, everyday activity. Businesses reopened and government offices functioned again. Repair crews were putting up power and telephone lines knock ed down Friday night by heavy gunfire. Most officials of Diem’s gov ernment were back at their desks but taking orders from a new committee of generals.
