Band Association
Those who decry the moptop hair styles of today’s youth
fail to consider some underlying implications of the luxuri- F/1 P(*.tS OxilCCFS
ant coiffures.
In the 1950’s those who looked with distaste upon the
greasy duck-tail fad possibly had some reason for alarm.
A tough kid in duck-tails looked like he could do damage,
because he looked distasteful.
But consider a young man of 1967. He walks down the
street with his locks blowing in the wind, bangs hanging
coquettishly down to his eyebrows, purple shirts with char
treuse polka dots, checked skin-tight pants, and shoes with
high heels. Brigitte Bardot should look so tough.
He may not look like John Wayne, but then he doesn’t
look like Jack the Ripper either. The only drawback is
twenty years in the future. How will he explain the hair
curlers in the attic to his son?
IE Department Receives Gauges
Precision measuring equipment
used in critical manufacturing
operations has been presented to
the Industrial Engineering De
partment at Texas A&M by Fred
B. McKimball, president-,of- South

Valued at $4,500, the equip
ment includes micrometers of var
ious types, electronic, lens and
‘go-no go” type gauges. The
equipment, installed in the de
partment’s quality control labora
tory, will be used in quality con
trol courses and any instruction
involving physical measurements,
noted D. A. W. Wortham, depart
ment head.
“This equipment is adequate
for illustrating almost all pre
cision measurements of manufac
turing operations, even in very
precise military parts and sur
face finishes,” Wortham said.
“It gives us probably the best
equipped quality control lab in
the Southwest,” he added.

AN OPEN LETTER
Hello Aggies,
For several weeks we have been running our adver
tisement in the Battalion telling you about Aggieland
Recreation Center located behind Betty’s Fashions in the
Redmond Terrace Center, College Station, Texas.
We’ve told you that we have two five by ten billiard
tables, two five by ten snooker tables, sixteen four by
eight billiard tables, seven pin ball machines and other
games. That we are open 7 days each week from 8 a. m.
till midnight. That no alcoholic beverages are sold or
allowed. That we sell billiard supplies, jointed cue sticks,
etc.
Hundreds of Aggies have visited our Recreation
Center, and we believe most of them were impressed. If
you have never visited the Aggieland Recreation Center,
we hope you will very soon. We believe you will like what
you see.
