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.
