Page 2 College Station, Texas Friday, April 22, 1966 THE BATTALION CADET SLOUCH by Jim Earle Reynolds By Mike Reynolds grab bag By Glenn Dromgoole Isn’t this a wonderful place to go to school. I am sure that everyone who stayed after Muster got quite a kick out of the recruiting film about our own school. I couldn’t help but be impressed by the volumes of library books, the amount of new construction, the wide variety of courses, the learned faculty and the enthusiastic student body. Just like most others, I sat up and asked is this really where I go to school. After studying about it for a while, I decided that with a few exaggerations taken into account, the film was a rather good picture of A&'M. I am just glad that I didn’t have the job of trying to decide what to cram inside of 20 minutes film time. Progress is not only GE’s most important product, but it is A&M’s most important product, right after that almighty product, the educated man. Therefore, if we are seeking progress as this film leads me to believe, I think the search should be directed towards every little detail and aspect of the campus. As I look about me, there is one fault that has little or no work done toward cor recting it. COMMUNICATIONS We have computers all around us and we can’t call someone on the other side of the campus. We are helping chart plans to send man on his way to the moon and we can’t even get a letter across the campus in the mails in less than four days. Phones, or a lack of them, have always been a sore spot at A&M. Since the board has always attempted to keep the price of an education at A&M at its minimum, phone bills and installa tion fees have tasted the axe more than once. Now, relief is in sight. Or at least in rumor. I wrote a story when I was a sophomore about the new telephones that would be installed in every room in 1966 just as soon as the new library was finished. Here is the grand old year and the library is still a hole in the ground and the phones are a figment of a reporters imagination. Someday, maybe, someday we will be able to pick up a phone and call Joe Blow on the other side of the campus. This will be corrected, I feel sure, but there is another area that is suf fering and there has been no mention of correction or aid for it. The campus mails. If you are not in a position to know about, the campus mail is a system set up in the college to take a letter from one depart ment to another, when a phone call is inconvenient. In many cases this service requires the usual one day, but in others, I doubt the mail ever goes through. I wish I had a nickel for every letter to our Sports department marked with red ink, “Not for Sports Publicity Office.” The Battalion, in turn, has turned up mail that should be going to the Poultry Science Department, the Air Port and the dean’s office. Grab Bag’s author has been grabbed at this week en route to graduation. With only 36 days and 16 hours remaining until that glorious moment, the major obstacles are out of the way — except, of course, a minor thing like six courses. The Graduate Record Exam — all seven hours of it — has been endured; the English Proficiency Exam has hopefully been passed; all fees have been paid and the proper courses petitioned. But, there were a few anxious moments this week, like the GRE for example. There must be a purpose for this seven-hour mental gymnas tics, but I’ve completely missed it. Not bound for graduate school and not offfered an achieve ment test in my major field, it was mere forma lity that compeled me to send an entire day testing my aptitude — which no doubt will be in math — and my achievement, not in journalism but in government of which I’ve had six hours during my college career. MUSTER NOTE: Ronnie Fann, last year’s Battalion editor, was on campus for yesterday’s Muster. He is attending the University of Texas Law School, and is managing editor of the Texas Law Review, the school’s publication. CAMPUS SECURITY: That beige Plymouth sedan you probably haven’t noticed sitting in front of the YMCA Building all week in the visitor’s area belongs to Campus Security. Some body should give them a ticket! VOTING TURNOUT: It’s comforting to know that we’re still an apathetic bunch. Only 933 students turned out for yesterday’s Student Senate elections, about 10 per cent of the enrollment. Last year more than 23 per cent voted. “Student leaders” bellow “student apathy” and apathetic stu dents claim the leaders don’t provide any issues on which to vote. So it’s a vicious circle. AGGIE PLAYERS: Three Aggie Players one- act productions go on the boards again at 8 p.m. tonight in the Fallout Theater in the rear of Guion Hall. “Courage Brother” by A&M junior Tim Lane opens the night. The play, directed by Jean Reyna, was presented in the Fallout Wednesday. “Leave of Absence,” written and directed by A&M student Frances Flynn, makes its third ap pearance in two weeks. Bud Franks, president of the Players, was added as a last-minute substi tute Wednesday. “Escape by Moonlight” by Kenneth Grotty and directed by senior journalism student Bob Spivey rounds out the night’s entertainment. Admission is 50 cents. THE MAGAZINE BEAT: Most eye-catching headline of the week appeared in the May edition of Cavalier Magazine in black, all-caps type. It read, “You Dirty Rat Atheist Pinko Jew Bastard” or “Funny, You Don’t Look Communist.” That’s journalism, brother. And a final note to eat supper by: The Texas A&M Review should be reaching your mailbox next week. Happy days are here again. Sunday Dull?
