Page 2 THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Friday, October 23, 1964 BATTALION EDITORIALS Ranger—Our Man In Washington This candidate’s modesty and shyness will most probably prevent him from expressing his own ideas on the hotly con tested issues of the campaign, so The Battalion will do so for him. A third party must be formed and there is only one qualified candidate to lead it—Ranger! Yes, Ranger is our candidate, and although he has been discriminated against by the nation’s press thus far, he cannot be ignored forever. With his bulldog tenacity during the upcoming weeks of campaigning he is surely to catch the attention and respect of all newsmen. With his vast experience as an advertising salesman and deputy campus security officer, Ranger enters this campaign as the most astute politician in the race. His moral integrity is unquestionable. Ranger doesn’t drink, smoke or stay out late. During the party caucus held last night in The Battalion office our candidate even promised to refrain from chasing -pending the outcome of the election. cars- And so we invite all Aggies to unite. Give Ranger your support and get a candidate with fighting experience in the White House. Our candidate won’t take the world situation lying down. Tippicanoe and Ranger too! The Football Crisis Comments on an 0-5 season. By Thomas Paine There are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it NOW, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheaply, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value .... Nassar Tells People Dam Will Help Them, But. President Gamal Nassar of Egypt told his people that after completion the Aswan Dam would raise the standard of liv ing of the people of Egypt to the highest point ever. “But what he did not disclose was that all of the production received from the Aswan Dam would have to be put back into Egypt because of the population increase before the dam is com pleted,” said Robert St. John, noted writer and traveler, at the second of the Great Issues Series Thursday night. “I am for the Aswan Dam,” said St. John. “But, because of the great pop ulation increase — 500,000 a year — all the resources of the dam will have to go back to Egypt because it will take 10 years for completion and the ex pected production from the dam is to serve 5 million people,” he said. “And, as anybody can figure out 500,000 a year for 10 years and fhere will be 5 million people to take care of,” he figured out. This was one of the many Mid dle East isues St. John discussed. Before the talk St. John visit ed Cushing Memorial Library to find out how many of his 14 books were in the library because “writers like to see their name in print and I found nine of my books.” St. John also attended Yell Practice and found it “very en joyable — unbelieveable.” Ferreri’s Triangle Restaurant Friday’s Featuring Our FISH SPECIAL All the fish you can eat for $1.00 at 12:00 noon and from 5:00 p. m. to 8:00 p. m.

FANN Managing Editor Glenn Dromgoole Sports Editor Lani Presswood Day News Editor Michael Reynolds Night News Editor Clovis McCallister Asst. New Editor Gerald Garcia Staff Writer Tommy DeFrank Sound Off Editor, The Battalion: Nearly three years ago when it was announced that A&M’s nevr athletic director and head foot ball coach was to be Hank Fold- berg, I was delighted — as were Aggies everywhere. As an old Aggie, I wanted the best for A&M. And I believed that Hank Foldberg was the best. Nothing has happened in the past three years to change that opinion. But much has happened to confirm it. In his role of athletic director, Hank Foldberg’s success has been nothing short of phenominal. The policies he has set, the staff changes he has made, and the as sistance and cooperation he has given his coaches in all sports — minor as well as major — have all brought results.

MONDAY MSC Brdige Committee will meet in the Social Room of the Memorial Student Center at 7:30 p.m. this thoughest of all conferences, A&M won varsity championships in two of the four major sports, and freshman championships in the other two. We are conference champions now in basketball and baseball. And our freshman championships last year in football and track promise succesful years ahead in those sports. In minor sports, last year we had the most promis ing swim squad in years, we grab bed off a share of conference ten nis glory for the first time in our history, and we came close to re peating as conference golf cham pions. If there is any Aggie who does not know what a tremendous feat this adds up to, let him go talk to the athletic director of any other college or university in the nation. Athletic Director Foldberg is doing a tremendous job for us. I hope we are smart enough to realize and appreciate it. We Aggies have a tendency to ask for the moon and then not be satisfied unless we get the stars and the milky way thrown in. Hank Foldberg knows this. And he is working his TU off to deliver. Being an old Aggie him self, Hank Foldberg wants A&M to be the best in everything, not just in something. And he is delivering. No other athletic director has ever deliver ed so much so soon for any other Southwest Conference school. Let’s let Coach Foldberg know 1 we are grateful for his hard work ATTENTION ALL HOME TOWN AND PROFESSIONAL CLUB REPRESENTATIVES The hometown club and profes sional club section of the “Ag- gieland” staff has announced that the last date for scheduling club pictures for the “Aggie- land” will be 18 December. 1964.

[T (^SH£ SAID ITiJ and for the tremendous job he is doing for us. Right now he is fighting his hardest battle — to bring A&M back to power in foot ball. I do not doubt for a moment that he will succeed in this, just as he has done everything he has set out to do. Let’s let him know NOW that we are with him, that we have confidence in hbn, that all real Aggies everywhere remain loyal to our school, to our team, and to our coach. I remember how wonderful it was when I was a wethead in 1939 to have Homer Norton coach our football team to a national championship in that, his fifth year as head football coach at A&M. And I remember that there were a lot of loud-mouth ed fools who wanted to fire Coach Norton in 1938.
