THE COLLEGE PRESIDENT:
HIS CAUSE AND CURE
0h, sure, you’ve been busy, what with going to classes, doing
your homework, catching night crawlers, getting married,
picketing—but can’t you pause for just a moment and give
thought to that dear, dedicated, lonely man in the big white
house on the hill? I refer, of course, to Prexy.
(It is interesting to note that college presidents are al
ways called “Prexy.” Similarly, trustees are always called
“Trixie.” Associate professors are always called “Axy-Pixy.”
Bursars are called “Foxy-Woxy.” Students are called
“Algae.”)
But I digress. We were speaking of Prexy, a personage
at once august and pathetic. Why pathetic? Well, sir, con
sider how Prexy spends his days. He is busy, busy, busy.
He talks to deans, he talks to professors, he talks to trus
tees, he talks to alumni. In fact, he talks to everybody ex
cept the one group who could lift his heart and rally his
spirits. I mean, of course, the appealingest, endearingest,
winsomest group in the entire college—delightful you, the
students.
It is Prexy’s sad fate to be forever a stranger to your
laughing, golden selves. He can only gaze wistfully out the
window of his big white house on the hill and watch you at
your games and sports and yearn with all his tormented
heart to bask in your warmth. But how? It would hardly
be fitting for Prexy to appear one day at the Union, clad in
an old rowing blazer, and cry gaily, “Heigh-ho, chaps!
Who’s for sculling?”
No, friends, Prexy can’t get to you. It is up to you to get
to him. Call on him at home. Just drop in unannounced. He
will naturally be a little shy at first, so you must put him at
his ease. Shout, “Howdy-doody, sir! I have come to bring a
little sunshine into your drear and blighted life!” Then
yank his necktie out of his vest and scamper goatlike
around him until he is laughing merrily along with you.
Then hand him a package and say, “A little gift for you,
sir.”
“For me?” he will say, lowering his lids. “You shouldn’t
have.”
“Yes, I should,” you will say, “because this is a pack of
Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades, and whenever I
think of Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades, I think of
you.”
“Why, hey?” he will ask curiously.
“Because, sir,” you will say, “though you are no longer
a young blade, still you gleam and function. Full though
you are of years and lumps, rheumy though your endocrines
and flaccid your hamstrings, still you remain sharp, inci
sive, efficacious.”
“Thank you,” he will say, sobbing.
“So it is with Personna,” you will continue. “Naturally
you expect a brand-new blade to give a close, speedy shave.
But how about a blade that’s had hard and frequent use?
Do you still expect a close, speedy shave? Well, sir, if it’s a
Personna, that’s what you’ll get. Because, sir, like you, sir,
Personna is no flash-in-the-pan. Like you, sir, Personna
abides.”
He will clasp your hand then, not trusting himself to
speak.
“But away with gloom!” you will cry jollily. “For I have
still more good news to tell you of Personna!”
“How is that possible?” he will say.
“Hearken to me,” you will say. “Personna, in all its en
during splendor, is available not only in Double Edge style
but also in Injector style!”
He will join you then in the Personna rouser, and then
he will bring you a steaming cup of cocoa with a marsh
mallow on top. Then you will say, “Good-bye, sir. I will re
turn soon again to brighten your dank, miasmic life.”
“Please do,” he will say. “But next time, if you can pos
sibly manage it, try not to come at four in the morning.”
^ ^ (c) 1966, Max Shulman
Prexy and undergrad, late and soon, fair weather and foul—
the perfect shaving companion to Personna® Blades is Burma
Shave.® It comes in regular and menthol; it soaks rings
around any other lather. Be kind to your kisser; try Personna
and Burma Shave.
Associate Education Commissioner To Speak
James A. Turman, associate
commissioner of education, U. S.
Office of Education, will discuss
the federal government’s role in
education at the 600-member
School Administrators and Super
visors Conferences June 13-15.
The former Texas legislator
speaks at a general assembly
June 15, in the Memorial Student
Center ballroom. Turman will be
introduced by Texas Commission
er of Education J. W. Edgar.
The Bonham native develops
and evaluates Office of Educa
tion activities in nine regions. He
works directly for Commissioner
of Education Harold Howe.
The 38-year-old educator went
to the White House Task Force-
created post from the Bureau of
Higher Education staff at Dallas.
Turman was elected to the
Texas House of Representatives
for four consecutive terms, 1955-
1963, and was also Speaker of
the House. During the eight-year
period he served on all major
standing committees, including
the Appropriations Committee.
Remembered for efforts in im
proving Texas youth educational
opportunities, Turman co - au
thored laws revising the Teaching
Certification Standards and
Teacher Retirement System. He
sponsored legislation raising min
imum state teacher salaries.
The East Texas State and Uni
versity of Texas-educated admin
istrator began teaching at the age
of 19. He gained teaching and
administrative experience at ele
mentary through university lev
els.
“Dr. Turman is one of the out
standing young men to come out
of Texas,” said Dr. Paul Hen
sarling, head of the Department
of Education and Psychology at
A&M. “His reputation among
teachers and professional people
is the best because of his support
of public education, especially at
the secondary school level.”
Son of a tenant farm family in
Fannin County, Turman spent his
childhood in farm communities
near Bonham and attended public
schools in Bonham, Gladewater
and Gober.
