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?

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.

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.

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.
