I consider it second in importance only to the head of the university. When the registrar’s office makes a mistake, it adversely affects other departments.” “The smoothness with which this office operates,” Heaton con tinued, “determines to a large measure the smoothness with which the university operates.” “My hardest problem is to say ‘no’ to students and prospective students,” Heaton confided. Heaton discussed his philoso phy of a registrar’s duties. “MY PHILOSOPHY is to chal lenge men and women to achieve their goals in life,” he empha sized. “So many youngsters today have had easy lives. If we in the registrar’s office can challenge these students to earn the privi lege of enrolling at Texas A&M, we have done them a service they can never forget.” One of Heaton’s biggest thrills H. L. HEATON tary, Mrs. Edna Cravens, are preparing, arranging and index ing include names of every known Communist, Nazi and Fascist in the U. S. through Jan. 3, 1945, when he left public office. The papers cover 20 years of his life as a congressman and attorney. DIES CHAIRED the House came in 1951 when he was master of ceremonies for the observation of Texas A&M’s 75th anniversary. General Dwight D. Eisenhower was the speaker. Registrar Heaton, who also has the title of director of admis sions, says summer is the busiest time of the year for his office. “WE ARE busy closing out the spring term, conducting two sum mer sessions and preparing for the fall semester,” he pointed out. The increased volume of rec ords and students has made the registrar’s office on of the big gest users of data processing facilities on campus. Much of Heaton’s time is spent in committee meetings. He’s a member of the university’s execu tive committee and academic council, in addition to numerous additional committees. Senator Raps (Continued From Page 1) over the past years. He even admitted to being the Republican- minority voice until a Republican was elected last year. Senator Schwartz criticized to day’s legislature when he said, “the system is designed for the interest of its members.” He also complained that a Senator’s year ly pay of $4,800 is not sufficient, but that people in general don’t want a well-paid legislator. He does believe, however, that the legislature has come a long way since he went there in 1954. He was a representative from 1954-58, and a senator since that time. The Forum was jointly spon sored by the MSC Great Issues and the History and Government Departments. After the luncheon, Senator Schwartz was the guest at a reception sponsored by the Young Democrats in the Presby terian Youth Center.

Supreme Court, which ruled that the Fifth Amendment gave a per son the right to remain silent rather than testify against him self. Dies, 66, served his last term in Washington as Texas congress man-at-large beginning in 1952. He retired in 1959 though he is ^till involved in his law practice at Lufkin. The practice is now primarily handled by two of his sons, Martin Jr. and Jack. In addition, the former con gressman is writing two books, “The History of Communism in the U. S.” and “Evening Medita tions.” The latter reflects on his 20 years in Congress and 46 years as an attorney. Another book, “Martin Dies’ Story,” was pub lished several years ago. WHATABURGER 1101 S.
