Page 2 THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Tuesday, October 13, 1964 CADET SLOUCH “Can you beat this—some of th’ same stuff we’ve been talkin’ about in class is in th’ textbook!” Reynolds 9 Rap by Mike Reynolds During the past few years the relationship between Texas Wo man’s University and Texas A&M has fallen into such disrepair that it surprises me that more people do not bemoan this fact a little. Gone are the weekend migra tions from Denton to College Sta tion and vice versa. The only remains of this once great re lationship is the half-hearted at tempt by the Aggies and Tessies to get together for one dance and yell practice before the yearly corps trip to Dallas or Fort Worth. This columnist has heard many complaints from both sides that the relationship should be dis continued. The relationship has already been discontinued. All we need do is stop pretending. Modern transportation has allowed the Tessies to secure male compan ionship from any number of other schools and anyone doubting that the Aggies have also, need only to count the cars headed in four different directions on Friday af ternoon. The only thing left that needs to be done is to change the me thod for selection of the Aggie Sweetheart. Many say the time has come to allow entrants from all the campuses in the South west conference, or to just any girl whose guy thinks she quali fies. This solution may seem harsh, however so have the actions of an increasing number of students of TWU and A&M toward each other. I do not favor this proposal. I believe that the same trans portation that has drawn the Ag gies apart from the Tessies can be used to draw them together again. The first thing needed however is tolerance. — — The students of both schools are in novel situation and h should draw them together. Act ivities on both campuses could be coordinated to a greater degree. Correspondance should be in creased between the Class Presi dents and other student leaders of both schools. The students of both schools i can work toward an opening of j their campuses towards students j of the other If I need any more arguments just take a look at the j ’64 Dedalion. We can’t go wrong.

Editor, The Battalion: During the past several days I’ve seen, heard, and read some things which lead me to believe that we Aggies in the Corps need to reevaluate the causes, possible results of, and our posi tion concerning the presence of a few co-eds on campus. As a senior in the Corps I’ve seen this change coming, and I was bitterly opposed to it until I saw some other sides of the question and then did some think ing about it for awhile. Only then did I realize that there are a few people who know more about A&M’s best interests than I. First, the causes: The girls are here because A&M needs them and because they need a college education. Our Board of Direc tors made the decision, so this year we have single, female un dergraduates. Does this mean that the members of the Board Bulletin Board TUESDAY Soil and Crop Science Wives Society will meet at 7:30 p.m. in the Social Room of the Mem orial Student Center.

No, that’s not the case. Most of these nine men are Aggies, real dyed-in-the-wool Old Army Aggies, who know con siderably more about A&M and co-education than we do, yet who recognize the fact that their feel ing and emotions must yield to reality if A&M is ever to grow up to be an academic university. These are men who have sought and achieved success and high recognition in their professions, and as men. Among them are five corporations executives, two ranchers, a publisher, and a gen eral contractor. They are not selfish with the Aggie Spirit, as some cadet “leaders” are, who use it as a tool to support per sonal, emotional prejudice. Yes, A&M needs co-education; for growth, an increased budget, a fine liberal arts program, and to attract male students (includ ing football players.) A further need for co-education becomes obvious when the differences in Corps strength (numbers) during the past five years are evaluated. During this period the Corps has experienced a steady decrease in numbers, and this trend will very probably continue unless; (1) The United States becomes in volved in a major war, or (2) compulsory service in the Armed Forces is extended, or (3) A&M opens its doors to all women who want to come. May I point out that co-educa tion does not in any way lead to or infer a non-compulsory corps insofar as male students are con cerned, though as long as the Corps remains compulsory, it will be subject to the inherent weak nesses of any compulsory organ ization. Those who expect co-eds to be in the Corps, cut their hair, and whip out like fish will be welcome to 1964 if they care to join the rest of us. Men, a handful of co-eds is no reason for us to lose our heads and our reason, to lower ourselves to rude discourtesy to sweet young things, and to oppose A&M’s greatest step forward in half a century. I have only praise for those five gals who went out last Sunday and brought in a man-sized log for the bonfire. They have demonstrated their initiative and desire to support and really be a part of A&M. These girls have been with us for four weeks now, and they don’t really seem to be fearsome, tradition - wrecking creatures. Thanks to them, some of our buddies have feminine companion ship a lot more than I did dur ing my fish and sophomore years, and they seem to love A&M and all that it stands for, so let’s ac cept' them, not as second class citizens, but as an attractive, in telligent, and welcome addition to the campus.
