Reynolds 9 Rap
by Mike Reynolds
“The old order changeth;
making way for the new.
Lest the world be ruined
by one great tradition . .
Maggies have come of age.
Many students, in and out of
the Corps of Cadets will argue
that Maggies are not truly part
of A&M; that they are just
girls getting an education here
because they find it convenient.
Not so! The number of coeds
are increasing every semester and
are here to stay. They deserve
a larger part in the activities of
the school.
Many young ladies have proved
over the long girl-less years of
A&M that they can catch the
undefinable something known as
the Spirit of Aggieland just on
a weekend date. Now when the
men are down and the Aggie
Band plays the War Hymn and
a lump forms in everyone’s
throat, it is said that they have
spirit.
But when a girl gets carried
away and can’t help yelling
“Gig ’em Aggies,” the men just
laugh, or, in other cases, curse
them openly and add their resent
ments against the coed to those
they already harbor against the
civilians, the corps, the deans, the
Board of Directors, Teasips and
the twentieth century in general.
The Maggies are said to want
to support their football team
with signs, and rumors are stir
ring about a coed spirit organi-

University Regulations provid
ed for the formation of student
organizations for . . . “social pur
poses with the approval of the
Dean of Students . . .” Action on
these lines is therefore up to the
girls.
However, their participation in
governmental affairs on the cam
pus is left to those already in
power.
The Constitution of the Student
Senate is presently being rewrit
ten. No reason can be seen why
the ladies should not have a con
stituted representative in this
body. The senate has been mak
ing rulings pretaining to the wel
fare of coeds on campus, and yet
there is no one on the Senate
that directly represents the girls’
opinions.
It may be argued that the girls
should come under the power of
the Civilian Student Council and
that their case should be pleaded
by the CSC representative. No
one could agree more on the first
part. The girls are definitely en
titled to a seat or seats on the
CSC.
However, the coeds are such a
unique group on this campus that
a voice completely their own is
to be highly desired on the Stu
dent Senate.
To paraphrase an old quota
tion . . . “Legislation against
coeds without representation is
tyranny.”
From Military To Political
SAIGON, South Viet Nam <A>)
— A U. S. military spokesman
said Tuesday the Communist Viet
Cong apparently has switched the
emphasis of its campaign from
military to political means, espe
cially since the August riots in
Saigon.
riots in Saigon one gets the
impression that the V.C. (Viet
Cong) have not staked their
future on the military side. They
probably are active in many other
fields.

After identifying himself, the
newsman was escorted to an ele
vator and told: “Don’t come back
up here again without permission
from the GSA (General Services
Administration.) ”
The ninth-floor suite became
