There is too much stress by our society on being safe, sure and absolutely reasonable at all times.” ed. “They forget that I spent about 30 years making it my bus iness to learn about boats and how to stay alive.” “A man shouldn’t hold back from something he wants to do because it’s too risky,” the form er newspaper copy editor re marked. “Ultimately, he will be afraid to get out of bed in the morning. And the greatest risk is in bed, because that’s where most people die.” Manry establish the world’s record for captaining the small est boat ever to cross the Atlantic non-stop. He sailed “Tinker belle,” a 13-foot sloop from Fal mouth, Mass., to Falmouth, Eng land, in 78 days. Pinkie Doing Well Due To Aggie Mail P. L.

Manry confided that one of his fears is that he will inspire others to attempt the same type of ad venture without adequate prepa ration. “Preparing is almost as much fun as the adventure itself,” the mustachioed speaker emphasized. “Read, learn and be prepared. I think it’s a dreadful tragedy that young people give up their dreams of adventure one by one as they face the harsh realities of life.” ADVENTURE IS calling Man ry away from his speaking swing around the nation. In August, with his wife, Virginia, daughter, Robin, 16, and son, Douglas, 13, he will sail off on a new cruise for a year. This jaunt will be aboard a 27- foot yawl, the “Curlew,” with the Great Lakes, the Mississippi, the Florida coast, the Bahamas, the East Coast, the Hudson River and the St. Lawrence Seaway in cluded in the counterclockwise circle. His family is enthusiastic about the adventure but a little wor ried about seasickness, a problem that has never bother Manry. Manry is prepared for such emergencies. He’s laying in a bottle of pills to counteract sea sickness. “SOME PEOPLE thought I There's NOTHING New Under The Sun — WE’VE BEEN DELIVERING OUR TICKETS SINCE ’61 ROBERT HALSELL TRAVEL SERVICE 1016 South College Avenue BATTALION CLASSIFIED WANT AD RATES nt it per word l« per word each additional day Minimum charge—50* Classified Display 90* per column inch each insertion DEADLINE 4 p.m. day before publication FOR RENT Two bedroom furnished apartment, cen- il air and heat, brick, 310 Second Street, I, two blocks from campus, available irch 1. 822-8181. 404t4 One bedroom, o beds, prefe M270. furnished, large ap r two students, 30 artment, 1 Bittle. 402t4 FAIRWAY APARTMENTS • Two bedrooms • Furnished or unfurnished • Carpeted and draped • T.V. cable connections • Close to A&M, elementary schools and golf course • Central air and heat • Built in stove, refrigerator and disposal.

Looking on are Mrs. Beth Hutchinson (left), presi dent of the Bryan-College Station chapter of the National Secretaries Association, and Mrs. Jerry Hott, secretary to A&M President Earl Rudder. Secretaries Hear Happiness Report “Happiness isn’t something that just happens — you have to work at it,” a former Texas A&M pro fessor and insurance official de clared here Saturday at the ninth annual Seminar for Secretaries. Newt Hielscher of Shreveport, described as a “humorist with a message,” told some 150 local secretaries and guests there are four main points necessary for attaining happiness, and they all evolve around love. Hielscher, who is a graduate of A&M and taught engineering here from 1940 to 1951, said the formula for happiness requires love of laughter, love of fellow man, love of labor and love of God. “I wouldn’t give you a dime for a man who couldn’t laugh,” Hiel scher noted. As for love of labor, the speak er observed that the most miser able guy in the world is the man who is on a job he doesn’t like. REFERRING TO love of God, Hielscher remarked, “I never knew a truly happy person who didn’t have a proper relationship with God.” “Happiness,” he concluded, “is a by-product of these four points.” Hielscher was principal speaker at a Memorial Student Center luncheon highlighting the one-day seminar, sponsored by the Bryan- College Station chapter of the National Secretaries Association. In the morning session, Mrs. Lorene Roby, president of the Lone Star chapter of the National School Public Relations Associa tion,” presented an address en titled “How’s Your PR Profile?” “YOUR PROFESSIONAL Per sona” was the topic of a talk giv en by Mrs. Ruth Thacker Fry of Houston, director of Jung Edu cational Institute. Debaters Win Top Trophies In SFA Meet Texas A&M debate teams won the two top trophies in the Piney Woods Tournament at S. F. Aus tin College over the weekend, the Aggies’ final competition before the Southwest Conference tour ney. Teams of David Maddox-Ron Hinds and James Byrd-Robert Peek will compete in the SWC meet at Texas Tech Friday and Saturday, announced Debate Di rector Carl Kell. Hinds, sophomore from Mid land, won second place in men’s extemporaneous speaking at SFA to go with the junior division championship and runnerup tro phies. The three-trophy performance is the best by an A&M debate team. A second-place finish in the Harding Tournament in De cember was the first trophy taken by A&M debaters since 1959. Both teams went 4-1 in SFA prelims, beating Lon Morris and Tyler Junior Colleges, Texas A&I, SMU, Southwest Texas, Arkansas State and Texas Lutheran. Peek, of Jacksboro, and Byrd, of Houston, won all three ballots in semifinals against North Tex as for the junior division cham pionship. They argued the nega tive. Hinds and Maddox, of College Station, had the negative against A&I in the semifinals for a 2-1 decision. They competed against Susie Burris, a junior division high speaker at Abilene Chris tian last weekend. “I believe we have a good chance at Lubbock,” Kell said. Peek and Byrd will have the af firmative, Maddox and Hinds negative in the seven school round robin. Handshaking at White House receptions was introduced by Thomas Jefferson.
