THE BATTALION CADET SLOUCH
College Station, Texas Thursday, June 4, 1964
On Being A University
Quietly and efficiently A&M is going- about its business
of becoming a university in the fullest sense of the word. This
is as it should be. Around the University area there is an
awareness of the increasing pace—an almost electrical, voltaic
atmosphere—that should penetrate even the most insensible
of minds.
Of course there will always be room for improvement.
The point is that improvements are being made—now, at
this instant. If there is any doubt as to the future cast your
eyes around the surrounding commercial district. Lots that
ware once waist-high in grass and trash are now sites of
newly arising supermarkets and business buildings. If the
activities of local businessmen are any indication there is
much in the offing.
Much has been said concerning the status of the “Sing
Sing on the Brazos." Today the very physical insolation that
brought about the coining of that phrase, is the blessing of
this institution. In fact this university today is in an en
viable locale. We have literally scads of room in which to
expand. Once the present transitional period has been passed
and full advantage has been taken of being on the doorstep
of the fastest growing area of the United States, and indeed
the world, this institution will be free to run free reined
toward a potential that will be limited only by aspirations
and readiness to work.
“Excellence" is not redundent verbage, as some would
have us believe. The term was initiated as a rallying call
for an increased effort on everybody’s part. You may tire
of hearing this word, but that is no excuse for underestimat
ing the urgency of its meaning, nor ignoring the clarity of
its call.
Too often in our society we allow the monotony of repiti-
tion to dull our appreciation for a slogan or saying for fear
that it is passe.
By the same token a blind eye should not be turned to
defects in this Institution. Where constructive criticism is
needed, it will be forthcoming from this publication.
During the regular school term The Battalion runs a
“Sound Off" column of letters submitted by readers. These
is no reason why the summer Battalion can’t feature a similar
column. All we need is letters—lots of them. The letters
must be signed by the person or persons submitting them.

The Battalion would like to print announcements of
activities of any campus or community non-profit organiza
tion. We will be glad to receive announcements in the mail.
If you wish, you can come by the Office of Student
Publications and fill out a form to be deposited in a collection
box. The deadline for announcements is 5 p. m. every Wednes
day.
Bagley Hall To Be Air Conditioned

temporarily to house the Texas
Engineers Library Collection of
the A&M University Library Sys
tem will be airconditioned, Supt.
Walter H. Parsons, Jr., of the
Buildings and Utilities Depart
ment announced Wednesday.
The engineers library has been
moved into Bagley Hall as part of
advance preparations for the ex
pected expansion of the Cushing
Memorial Library.

House Government Operations
subcommittee which checks intoi
policies and practices of various
federal agencies.
Recognized for the efficient
work his group has done, result
ing in savings of substantial tax
money. Brooks was invited to ad
dress a meeting here of the As
sociation of Federal Investiga
tors.
“The mere fact — when it is
known — that an investigation is
underway, can serve to condemn
persons or situations being look
ed into,” he said.
“Given some newspaper and
television publicity, this problem
can become exceptionally acute
if the investigators themselves
are prone to discuss people’s per
sonal business needlessly and in
discriminately.
“We have all seen the tragic
fruits of haphazard and irrespon
sible investigation accompanied
by premature publicity through
somebody’s big mouth.
“Your commission as an in
vestigator is one of the highest
responsibilities in this land. It
includes the mandatory require
ments to be absolutely fair in re
porting facts, to be absolutely
thorough in finding all the facts
and to be absolutely above re
proach in the way the investi
gation is conducted.
“The fruits of good investiga
tion connot be accurately mea
sured because deterrence is prob
ably the greatest result.

Wives Busy
In Capital
WASHINGTON <A>) — Wives
of Texas members of Congress
are almost as busy as their hus
bands these days.
They are being called upon to
help show visiting constituents
around the nation’s capital. And
with the New York World’s Fair
to draw them East, Texans are
arriving in record numbers this
year.
“That’s one way we can take
some of the load off our hus
bands, commented the wife of
Rep. W. R. Poage, D, Waco.
Mrs. Poage might have added
that, like some of the other wives
who once worked as secretaries,
she sometimes pitches in to help
clear up the correspondence that
piles up in her husband’s office.
As an example of what the
wives do when the visitors ar
rive, Mrs. Poage recently manag
ed to get tickets for four Waco
women to attend a breakfast
honoring Lady Bird Johnson, the
First Lady. Later that day they
were guests of Mrs. Poage in the
House restaurant at the Capitol.
