Page 2 THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Wednesday, November 6, 1963 CADET SLOUCH by Jim Earle “ . . . Furthermore, I can’t see how wearin’ spurs will help th’ team!” Responsible Positions Will Soon Be Ours The fabulous Will Rogers once told one of his audiences, “This is a great country, but you can’t live in for nothing.” He might well have been addressing the university stu dents of today. Just as he said to his audience that they can’t live in the country for nothing; we can today tell our selves that we can’t live in this country or this world for nothing. However, we wonder if the price of living in to morrow’s world is not going to far greater than it was for the people Will Rogers was addressing. It seems not a day can go by without the news budget presented by the news gathering media reporting threats of violence. A crisis no longer comes by its lonesome self, but is usually accompanied by at least two or three incidents in which two or more groups of are clashing and presenting a threat of violence and possible death for members of all the groups involved. Competition becomes keener each week among the crisis makers, to see who will capture the spotlight on the world’s stage. Whether its a blockade on a highway in Germany, a new threat from Mr. K., or guns being smuggled into some South American country by Castro’s forces, the United States is involved in most of the events. Other nations have opportunities to rest in the Cold War, which often becomes extremely warm; but not the U. S. As Long as the U. S. must stay alert, so must the people in the responsible positions in the nation. The same positions that will be filled by our generation in the very near future. We just wonder, will we be able to keep the Cold War cold? Ferreri’s Triangle Restaurant Invites You To Try Our AGGIE SPECIAL Also, try PIZZA, Spaghetti, Raviola, Mexican Food, and Seafood.

DAN LOUIS JR EDITOR Ronnie Fann Managing Editor Glenn Dromgoole News Editor Jim Butler Sports Editor John Wright Asst. News Editor Marvin Schultz Asst. Sports Editor Mike Reynolds, Robert Sims Staff Writers Juan Tijerina, Herkey Killingsworth Photographers Sound Off Editor, The Battalion: I have read with great interest several letters, and your answer ing comments, concerning “Aggie Spirit” and co-eds. Before com menting further I feel it is im portant that you know that I have worked for Texas A&M as a Cadet Officer, Class Agent, A&M Club President, District Vice President of the Former Students Association, Director of the Former Students Associa tions, and Aggie Club Member. I write this only to indicate that my interest has been consistent and regular during the 15 years since graduation. The advantages of this magni ficent educational facility are known everywhere, and I have tried to sell A&M since the day I first said “Howdy”. I expect to continue doing my part as an interested former student by pro moting all facets of educational excellence, military excellence, and yes, athletic excellence. I am one of many who believes there are proper ways and im proper ways of expressing an opinion on University affairs. University officials while car rying out their duties as laid out by the Directors may be come unpopular. Corrections of problems can be requested and obtained without disrupting and interfering with the daily life of the student and without un dermining his confidence in prop erly constituted University au thority. The few women who are in position to make use of our Uni versity will add great chapters to the history of Texas A&M. The Cadet Corps must and will continue as a great equating fac tor among entering students. It must and will continue to equate the wealthy and the less fortu nate, the tall and the short, the urban student and the suburban student. I support A&M for what it did for me, and for what I re ceived in benefits while attend ing Texas A&M. I hope in years to come to continue my support in order to balance the good I received from attending Texas A&M with what I can repay by one individual effort in behalf of the University. Melvin Maltz real men. Why girls want to ruin such a school, I can’t see. The first time I was on the campus, everyone spoke, each time that I go now, I see less friendliness. Our boys like girls but in their place. That place isn’t on the A&M campus. Mrs. C. Brown Are You A Nuf! H Check Yourself! NEW YORK (A>) — How can you tell if you’re normal ?

Extra Boxus — the clean masculine aroma of Old Spice I M U L- t o N everyone at times feels so mixed- up he must be off his rocker. But are you really? We have prepared a small guide for the mentally per- plexed that may be of help to You. Ask yourself the following questions. Do you, while making a de posit at a bank, often wonder secretly how hard it would be to rob the place ? Are you convinced that most repairmen are engaged in a con spiracy to rob you blind? If you answered yes to all these, quit worrying about your mental health. Your mind is as sound as a nut. You are just neurotic enough to be properly adjusted in a world in which a guy who has no suspicions also lacks the common sense to know what’s really going on.
