Page 2 THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Friday, October 14, 1966 4 New Era’ Evolves Whiting Named To Committee A new era of cooperation between Corps and civilian student leaders evolved Thursday night during a meeting with President Earl Rudder in the Coke Building auditorium. The session was not prompted by any Corps-civilian difficulties but rather was called by President Rudder as an informal discussion of various university topics. As a result of the meeting, however, there developed a sincere desire on the part of both Corps and civilian repre sentatives to work more closely in conducting campus activi ties. “This is great,” remarked Student Senate President Barney Fudge, referring to the free flow of ideas between the two groups. Cadet Lt. Col. Tommy Stone, who is also a yell leader, said the Thursday night meeting marked the first time in his four years at A&M that Conxs and civilian leaders “have got together and talked like this.” Jim Oliver, president of the Civilian Student Council, was equally enthusiastic about the results of the meeting. Oliver said he would work with civilian dorm presidents in providing assistance to the Corps in activities such as helping control the crowd which follows the Aggie Band into Kyle Field for Midnight Yell Practice. Corps leader, in turn, said that upon request they would be happy to furnish representatives to meet with civilian student groups and discuss university and Corps traditions and related topics. Stone noted that a large portion of past difficulties— such as occurred during the march to Midnight Yell Practice for the Tech game two weeks ago—are at least partly the result of not knowing about certain traditions, rather than being deliberate attempts to create trouble. President Rudder, earlier in the evening expressed the general feeling which prevailed at the end of the meeting. “We’ve got to give and take and not blame each other,” he said. “We are all Aggies.” Robert L. Whiting, professor and head of the Department of Petroleum Engineering at Texas A&M University, has been ap pointed a member of the Engi neering Education and Accredi tation Committee of the Engi neers’ Council for Professional Development.
