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

neers’ Council for Professional
