The Harris - to - Adams combination that had been so successful in previous games was shut out Thursday. Harris had a bad time all night, only completing seven of 22 passes and being thrown for several losses by a tough Tech line. On the Picadors’ first posses sion, after making two first downs and advancing the ball to the Fish 18, Jimmy Piper of A&M, outstanding on defense all night, picked off a Randy Bow lin pass and ran it back to the Fish 31. The Tech line, spearheaded by Mike Holladay from Hobbs, N.M., who was in the Fish backfield all night, held the Fish and they were forced to punt. After two exchanges, Tech had the ball again on its own 44. After a first down and a Fish off-sides penalty, the ball rested on the Aggie 39. Enter Mr. Sanders. Teeing the ball up at the A&M 46, the Earth, Tex., native’s talented toe put the ball through the uprights 56 yards away. The kick broke a SWC record for both freshman and varsity play. An interesting sidelight to this is that the old record of 55 yards was set this year by the Texas Tech’s varsity place-kicker Kenny Vineyard. Vineyard had in turn beaten Sanders’ record of 53 yards, which was also set this year. Vineyard, who is a sopho more and Sanders, a freshman, make it appear the Red Raiders will have more than just a few field goals in the coming seasons. The second quarter started with the Fish’s Mike Smith recovering a fumble on a Harris punt on the Tech 29. The touchdown drive was derailed when the Picadors’ Kevin Ormes intercepted a Harris pass in the end zone for a touch- back. The Picadors stalled and were forced to punt. A&M put the ball in play on its own 17. After two running plays and a penalty for too much time, Harris hit Larry Stegent for a first down on the 50. After Harris was nailed for (See Fish, Page 4) 4 Advisors Take Orientation For International Programs Four advisors from the Inter national Programs Office at Texas A&M began orientation Nov. 1 for service in Tunisia, East Pakistan, and the Dominican Republic. Orientation ranges from six to 'sixteen weeks. The advisors will spend two years as members of the Texas A&M AID contract staff. Larry Vest, assistant county, agent at Port Lavaca, will go to Santo Domingo, Dominican Re public as poultry science advisor. Vest’s sixteen-week orientation will consist principally of the Spanish language. Dr. James Armstrong will also join the staff in Santo Domingo. He will serve as veterinary serv ices advisor. Armstrong’s ori entation consists mainly of veteri nary medicine refresher training. Armstrong has just returned from private veterinary practice in Spain. W. S. McGinnis, foreman of Bintlitt Ranch at Angleton, will go to Tunisia as livestock-poultry advisor. He has a B.S. and M.S. degree in animal husbandry from Texas A&M. He will spend 16 weeks in orientation, mainly stu dying the French language. Me-' Ginnis replaces Dr. William S. Warderepp, who has recently com pleted his duties and returned to the United States. Dr. Paul Talley, owner and manager of a seed processing plant in Pine Bluff, Ark., will go to Mymensingh, East Pakistan, as an agronomy consultant. This position has been vacant for sev eral years. E. P. Creech, assistant director of International Programs; Dan R. Davis, associate professor of Agriculture Economics; and Dr. Irving O. Linger, professor of eco nomics are conducting orientation. Dr. Jack A. Dabbs, head of the Modern Language Department, is responsible for language training. Orientation consists of cultural adjustment problems, methods of planned technological change, language, and economics of un derdeveloped countries. out a come-from-behind 14-13 vic tory. For Rice, the game was high lighted by a 50-yard TD run by Chuck Latourette, whom the Aggies will be watching for this year. Latourette and quarterback Robby Shelton have provided most of the heroics in an otherwise frustrating year for the Owls. The Jess Neely-coached Owls are 0-4 in the conference but have been involved in some real squeak ers. Rice has been ahead in two of the four games only to see victory fade away. In the SMU game, they were leading until the final 11 seconds when the Mus tangs pushed across a touchdown to take the game 28-24. They were also leading Arkansas last week but the Porker powerhouse put the game away in the fourth quarter. “We’ll be throwing at them all week,” was Neely’s comment about his defensive halfbacks, when his long-time scout, Joe Davis brought back the scouting report on the Aggies. Neely was stressing pass defense, as Davis’ report had glowing words about the Aggies’ air attack featuring the throwing of Edd Hargett. As Neely had praise for Har gett, the Aggies’ mentor, Coach Gene Stallings had equally en thusiastic praise for Rice’s field general, Robby Shelton. “That boy’s statistics speak for themselves,” Stallings said at his weekly press conference when quizzed about the sophomore flash. Stallings said the Aggies will have some new defensive wrinkles, with Shelton in mind. He added that they would try to run a little more, but he pointed out that everyone goes into a game hoping they can run. What it all boiled down to was that Stallings was not giving away his game plan. The Aggies certainly won’t be lacking if they do pass, as every passing yard that Hargett totals only adds more to his already record-breaking season. He has split up his aerial circus among six receivers.

Need Ride? Board Gives Information Need a ride or need riders to any point north, south, east or west of A&M over the holidays ? Hundreds of Aggies every year locate rides or get riders by checking a bulletin board on the first floor of the Academic Build ing. This sign proves that Ag gies come from everywhere. Riders share in the expenses of the trip and on long trips may even help by driving part of the time. Areas of the U. S. that Aggies want rides to this year range from New England to the North east, Seattle, Washington to the northwest, Miami to the South east, and any point south of Los Angeles to the Southwest. One Aggies has room in his car for someone interested in going to Mexico City over the holidays. If you are in the market for a ride or in need of someone to ride with you, be sure to check out the bulletin board in the Academic Building. By ROBERT BORDERS All-out war is inconceivable in this nuclear age; therefore we must depend upon limited wars, closely linked with diplomacy. This was the conclusion reached by Dr. David R. Woodward, as sistant professor of history and government, as he spoke before a meeting of the Apollo Club last night in the Memorial Student Center. “Many people have felt that the use of force has no place in the order of things,” he said. “They believe that war is un natural and peace is the natural state of things.” “Others believe that war is the combination of politics by mili tary means,” he said. WOODWARD SAID the cur rent state of things had its be ginning with the Italian city- states during the Renaissance. Warfare was feudal in type, and the leaders of armies were careful not to waste their manpower. “Later, states began to take on a national identity,” he said. By the 18th century, the balance of power was carefully articulat ed. “War was characterized by limited force and limited objec tives because it was so expen sive,” Woodward said. “There UC Will Publish Kroitor’s Works Writings by Dr. Harry P. Kroitor of Texas A&M will ap pear in two magazines published by the University of Chicago Press. The associate professor of English was commissioned by the editor of “Modern Philology” to write a review on “The Rhetoric of Science”, a Dr. William Pow ell Jones publication surveying the influence of science on ideas and imagery of 18th century poetry. Reference is made in the book to Dr. Kroitor’s 18th cen tury science and literature works. Five of his poems will appear in “Perspectives in Biology and Medicine” in 1967. Dr. Kroitor had three poems previously pub lished in the magazine. was no real militarism despite professional armies.” STABILITY WAS threatened by the nationalism unleashed by the French Revolution. In France the whole country geared itself for war, he said. Woodward emphasized that “war became more destructive because of the industrial revolu tion.” Machinery gave more power and more mobility. “After Napoleon, there was about a hundred years of peace,” he said. The start of World War I was marked by an explosion of pa triotism. As the war dragged on, diplomats began to lose their caution and demand more action, he said. “THIS WAS not the intention of the United States. Wilson be lieved that war was a disease,” Woodward said. He said between wars, the Lea gue of Nations was the great hope. An attempt was even made to outlaw war. Democracies were afraid of another major conflict because they believed it would cause mass destruction. “Hilter tried to use limited force to gain his objectives, and it worked until about 1939,” he said. “All-out war ensued be cause the democracies did not meet limited war with limited war.” AFTER WORLD War I, we felt diplomacy and war were separate entities. The Russians did not separate diplomacy and force, and this explains why they were so successful in eastern Europe. Woodward said the United Na tions was created with the same purpose in mind as the League of Nations, but there was much con troversy over what its main pur pose was. “Some maintained that because of nuclear weapons, national sov ereignity must go. Others said that absolute non-violence was the answer, and eventually countries would win their enemies over by reason. Still others said disarm ament was the answer, but it had to be tied up with the sovereignty of the nations,” he said. “ALL THESE were aimed at removing violence from the world, but force is still a necessary in- DR. DAVID R. WOODWARD gredient in international rela tions,” Woodward said. But what should American policy be? “An all-out war is unthinkable; civilization could not survive such a war. Limited war is still nec essary, however, but we need to change our procedure of limited conflict,” he said. The conflict needs to be local ized, while keeping the door open for discussion with the enemy. Diplomacy should be put before force. “It’s going to be a long, drawn- out process. We will have to be very patient and very vigilant,” Woodward said. WHAT? AKRINKLE! “Five Men and a Girl” is a one-act play di- mg' in a Krinkle factory.
