Goes Fishing
Postmaster Ernest Gregg of
College Station announced that
henceforth all first-class mail,
personal sound recordings (voice
letters), and parcels weighing
five pounds or less and measuring
not more than 60 inches in length
and girth combined, will be air
lifted on a space available basis
between the United States and
all military post offices overseas.
Also, under Public Law 80-725
— The Dulski Military Act —
which was signed by President
Johnson November 2, second class
publications such as newspapers
and magazines published weekly
or more often, and featuring cur
rent news of interest to the mili
tary, will be airlifted from San
Francisco to the armed forces
serving in Viet Nam.
Postmaster Gregg explained
that parcels weighing 5 pounds
or less and not exceeding 60
“Professor, there’s a student here who wants to discuss
his mid-semester grade with you!”
Nov. 11 Takes On
New Significance
With American troops once more locked in combat,
defending the cause of freedom, Veterans Day—November
11—takes on added significance this year. A new genera
tion of war veterans is in the mold as the nation pauses
to honor the men and women who have honorably served
in the uniform of their country.
This day — which was once known as Armistice Day —
was originally the anniversary of the ceasefire of World
War I. From that war came The American Legion. But
this year’s observance of Veterans Day is in no way a
consecration of the memory of any past armed conflict.
Instead, it is a time to express the esteem and prestige
with which Americans regard the role of the veteran.
While Veterans Day is meant to honor the 20 million
men and women who have performed the highest obliga
tion of their citizenship, the day is also dedicated to the
cause of world peace with honor.
No one hates war more than the war veteran. No
one strives more ardently for an honorable world peace
than the veteran who has known war in all its brutality.

cannot be attained while there are forces in the world

This year, Veterans Day calls for an expression of
national unity in support of the gallant men and women
who are serving our nation’s exalted purpose. They are
writing inspiring pages of history with their sacrifices in
the struggle against a godless ideology which seeks to
subjugate mankind. Once again, they are proving the
willingness and capability of ordinary citizens in meeting
the challenge to champion the cause of freedom anywhere
in the world.
The citizens of Bryan-College Station can contribute
much to the meaning of Veterans Day by active participation
in this year’s observance. By our actions on this special
day let’s add strength to an expression of national unity
at a time when the forces of aggression seek signs of
internal weakness. As we honor our veterans — our cham
pions of freedom — let us resolve to preserve what they
have won and to persevere in our defense of freedom’s
cause until that day dawns on a world blessed with an honor
able peace.

MEMORIAL STUDENT CENTER LOBBY

reweighing and measuring the
parcels at the San Francisco Con
centration Center prior to dis
patch to Viet Nam or other over
seas military post offices.
Postmaster Gregg also remind
ed mailers that Christmas parcels

though they are given airlift pri
ority from San Francisco to Viet
Nam on a space available basis,
should be mailed no later than
December 1. Airmail, he said,
should be sent no later than De
cember 10.
Students who had rather be
fishing than studying in a class
room will Ite envious of a wildlife
science class at Texas A&M Uni
versity.
A junior class in fresh water
ichthyology will do some fishing
this weekend in the Trinity River
as a field project.
“We will split the 56 students
into three groups for studies of
the upper, middle and lower Trin
ity and its tributaries,” remarked
Dr. Richard J. Baldauf, Wildlife
Science Department acting head.
“With so many water develop
ment projects in progress at
A&M, we feel students will learn
and contribute at the same time.”
The deadline for Christmas
packages weighing more than 5
pounds going to Viet Nam and
other overseas military post of
fices by surface means is Nov. 10.
Assistant professor Kirk
Strawn, instructor Van Conner
and Baldauf will supervise the
groups in trawling and seining
for fish. The anglers will make
inches in length and girth com
bined, paid at surface rates, will
be moved by surface transporta
tion within the United States
from the points of mailing to the
port of embarkation.
To speed up separation and de
livery of these smaller parcels
falling within this category. Post
master General Lawrence F.
O’Brien directed that all parcels
be clearly marked upon accept
ance at the post office with the
letters SAM (surface airlift
mail).
Schaffer Has Dual Position
As School Principal, Coach
By JOHN STABLER
Horace Schaffer, principal of
Consolidated Junior High, can be
seen each afternoon coaching the
Consolidated netters for what he
hopes will be their 16th consecu
tive winning season.
Having the dual job of coach
and principal, Schaffer prefers
the title “Coach” from his play
ers.
Schaffer was a 1958 graduate
of Texas A&M where he received
his B.S. in physical education. At
Sam Houston State College he
received his M.A. degree in edu
cation.
“Tennis, in my opinion, is the
best sport because you can play
until you are 60 years old,”
Schaffer said.
While coaching the team for
the last 16 years it has had 12
district championships and 17
state finalists. Not once has it
had a losing season. Schaffer
rates Claire Elkins, 1964 Consoli
dated graduate, as his best play
er. She won the Class AA Cham
pionship and she is now attending
A&M.
Schaffer volunteers his time
and coaches only because he en
joys working with the team.
“I believe the credit for good
teams goes to the players them
selves,” Schaffer said. “I occa
sionally can’t make workouts but
the team pushes itself toward ex
cellence.”
In the summer Schaffer directs
a tennis recreation league. There
are approximately 20 members on
the team but more are expected
later in the year. Tennis season
begins in January after the bas
ketball season.
