It’s Here To Stay
Aggie Spirit, Aggie Spirit and Aggie Spirit!
It was pleasing to see Thursday night that the Aggie
Spirit had not been confiscated in the Thanksgiving Day
raid made on the Aggies in Kyle Field. The Spirit demon
strated at the basketball game Thursday night revealed that
there are some things that just can’t be taken away from
A&M.
Congratulations to Coach Shelby Metcalf and his cagers
on a fine start.
Incidentally, that’s two Thursdays in a row that A&M
has won major sporting events. Don’t show us the score-
board, Sips, we saw the game.
They Said It;
Then They Did It
Aggies should profit from an expensive experience of
some of their fellow students.
Five mascots were taken from rival schools during the
football season and the punishment handed out was very
mild. The understanding of the administration should be
appreciated by all students. However, after the same admin
istration stood good on a warning they issued prior to the
University of Texas game the students should be just as
appreciative.
The reference is being made to the suspension of eight
students who were apprehended in the tower building on
the University of Texas campus—along with buckets of paint
and paint brushes.
Student Senator Frank Mueller said in Thursday night’s
Senate meeting that students should be warned by this
action. Dean of Students James P. Hannigan, advisor to
the Senate, stated that rigid enforcement of the rule which
the aforementioned students violated will continue to be
enforced as strictly in the future as it was in this most
recent event.
So, students are herewith notified—for the second time
this semester—that “The following offense will result in
immediate suspension for not less than the remainder of
the semester:
“Going to another college campus with the intent to
paint or otherwise deface statues or buildings or commit
other depredation. Minimum penalty is suspension from the
University for the semester in which the act occurs.’’

CADET SLOUCH
by Jlm Earle Goldwater Looks
At Election Hopes
Politicians Eye Louisiana
Voters For Trend Changes
WASHINGTON <A>) — Repub
lican Sen. Barry Goldwater said
Thursday he is undertaking a
“major reassessment” of his
presidential prospects in the
tangled political picture left by
the assassination of President
John F. Kennedy.
“I don’t think my support has
changed from what it was,” said
the Arizona conservative who
ranked No. 1 among potential
Republican nominees in public
opinion polls taken before Ken-
nedys’ death.
But Goldwater added in an in
terview: “I feel you can’t say
for sure. The whole country is
in a position of flux. There’s no
way to assess it.”
As Goldwater sized up his
prospects in what he called “a
new ball game with a new pitch
er,” there were rumblings of an
organized effort to put former
Vice President Richard M. Nix
on — who lost to Kennedy in
1960 — into the race for the
1964 nomination.
In New York, a spokesman for
Nixon said “he isn’t comment
ing on anything right now.”
The Washington Star reported
plans are afoot to enter a slate
of Nixon-pledged delegates in
the New Hampshire presidential
primary next March 10.
The Star quoted former GOP
National Chairman Leonard Hall
as saying he had met with Nixon
and former President Dwight D.
Eisenhower in the past week to
discuss the political situation.
WASHINGTON <A>) — Some
politicians in this national capi
tal are keeping close watch on
Louisiana’s primary Saturday
for clues to any political effect
of President Kennedy’s assassi
nation.
It will mark the first voting
since Kennedy’s death.
In the Louisiana primary vot
ers will try to pick a Democrat
ic nominee for governor out of
a field of 10. Charlton Lyons,
Louisiana’s Republican national
committeeman, is unopposed for
the GOP nomination but Demo
cratic nomination in Louisiana
usually is as good as election.
Some politicians believe the
results may have overtones of
meaning for the 1964 presiden
tial election, particularly in the
south.
Not every one agrees with
this. Some have been too preoc
cupied with recent events to
think much about the election.
Others look on it as just a local
election.
But there is interest on Capi
tol Hill, where members of the
Louisiana delegation are bring
ing back reports about the na
tional implications.
Their reports are that those
candidates identified with Ken
nedy are gaining. Those who
had mounted anti-Kennedy plat
forms are slipping. The result
could keep Louisiana in the
Democratic column in 1964.

SALUTE: JACK SELLERS
Jack Sellers (B.S.E.E., 1956) typifies the successful engi
neer who takes advantage of the opportunities offered in
the communications field at Southwestern Bell.
In just a few short years, he has moved forward through
four major assignments into his present position as District
Engineer at Bartlesville, Oklahoma. Jack’s present respon
sibilities concern the engineering of new outside plant
equipment for 33 towns and cities in northeast Oklahoma.
Expenditures range upwards to $700,000 annually. This
is a job calling for administrative as well as engineering
skill. Jack has demonstrated both talents, admirably.
Throughout his previous assignments. Jack has shown
his capacity for technical and administrative duties. Per
sonnel under his supervision have been responsible for all
outside telephone plant equipment in key areas. He has
supervised as many as 54 people at one time.
Jack Sellers, like many young engineers, is impatient
to make things happen for his company and himself. There
are few places where such restlessness is more welcomed
or rewarded than in the fast-growing telephone business.
