A resolution to study the possibility of using Mitchell Hall as a temporary guest dormitory was referred to Dean Hannigan. This inexpensive housing for student dates could be the deciding factor as to whether or not budget-minded Aggies should invite their dates to games. If some agree ment could be made with the University, Aggies might con vert the recently-vacated dorm into another Aggieland Inn. Towels, sheets, light bulbs and other necessities could be provided by the student, and the University could assess a small service charge to turn on the electricity and water. Total cost to the student should be no more than $1 per night. The advantages of this proposal are obvious. Students who otherwise could not afford to keep their dates in local motels could save considerable money by using the dorm. Also, those who don’t have cars and could not find trans portation to and from Bryan motels would be benefited by another campus guest facility. Use of Mitchell Hall would have little effect upon the patronage of the Memorial Student Center guest rooms. Obviously the MSC has much more luxurious rooms—for Aggies who don’t have to worry about the costs. The cen ter would continue to receive student business and could even accept more requests from parents and former stu dents. The dorm is no Hilton hotel. But it is very practical. Foreign Student Reports On Bolivian Crisis By JIMMY JONES Special Writer “The army revolt of the Boli vian armed forces commander, General Alfredo Obando Candia will probably leave the country in a state of turmoil for at least a year.’’ This is the conclusion of Jorge Inchauste, A&M student from Bolivia. President Victor Paz Estenssoro was overthrown Wed nesday. “Either the newly elected vice president, Rene Barrientos or former Vice President Juan Lec- hin, will try to take the leader ship of the government,” the 23-year-old Bolivian speculated. “The revolt really began last spring when Paz was reelected President, Inchauste said. “The people didn’t like the way he used force to carry out his wish es. He had a frim hand on the government reins until about a month ago, where Barriento broke away.” Inchauste added that the people were not in real danger as yet unless they get into conflict. So far, the fight has been between the military junta and the police and militia that backed Presi dent Paz when the fighting first began. The militia joined forces with the rebels and Paz fled to Peru.

CADET SLOUCH by Jim Earle Sound Off Editor, The Battalion ; Today I learned just a little bit more about the Aggies and their ways — someone told me' the about Moose Pot! Naturally, I could see the fun and humor in this means of consoling a buddy for having an unattractive blind date; but still I must con fess I couldn’t help being a little bit disgusted and disappointed. I think this would probably be any girl’s reaction. No girl is so self-confident about her own looks or has so little sympathy for less attractive girls that she likes the thought of girls being judged by their looks alone. Even the most beautiful girl wants to be liked for herself as a person, not just for her good looks. party has gone on long enough for you to get to know the girls and they to know you, your C.O. can get up and say, “Girls, we have this money we’ve collected. We want you all to go to the powder room and decide among yourselves which of us has been the worst date. You may con sider both our looks and person alities. If the most handsome one of us is a smart-aleck and a bore and his date can convince you he’s the worst date of i he — or whoever else you detjj really is the worst — will p this money for being sucli a ptii stooge.” Mary Vines “They didn’t send a photo of your date but it says here that she has th’ best personality of th’ bunch!” Nation’s Weathervane Areas Keep In Step With Tradition WASHINGTON <A>> — All six of the nation’s weathervane coun ties stayed in step with the pres idential election winner. These counties, which have voted for every winner since 1900, voted strongly for Presi dent Johnson over Sen. Barry Goldwater in Tuesday’s election. At first it looked as if Gold- water might carry Teton County in northwest Montana. But the final unofficial returns gave John son the nod, 1,808 votes to 1,388. Going for the Democratic ticket by margains of up to 2 to 1 were Coos and Strafford counties in New Hampshire, Palo Alto in Iowa, Laramie in Wyoming and Crook in Oregon. Bulletin Board In Biblical days, Antioch was the third largest city in the world. But fires, floods and earthquakes have taken their toll. The pop ulation of this Turkish city, now called Antakya, has dwindled to 46-000. Please, now don’t misunder stand me! I don’t want to be accused of being one of those co-eds trying to do away with the Aggie traditions, because I am not. Go ahead and chip in your Moose Pot money for the SMU Corps Trip. But if you’re right sporting, you mgiht try doing things another way at your com pany party. Instead of looking your blind dates over with a cri tical eye and trying to decide whether your buddy’s date is ug lier than your own, forget the girl’s looks! Just enjoy the girls and try to get to know them as people who are fun to know, re gardless of how they may look. The least attractive girl there might really be the most fun as a date.
