Page 2 THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Tuesday, May 2, 1967 CADET SLOUCH by Jim Earle Sound Off Graduate Course Set For Summer Editor; The Battalion; An open letter to the students of Texas A&M. After the past few hectic days, perhaps it is time we stopped to look over what has happened. Much has been said about whether or not the demonstration Wednesday night was “good or not.” That question probably can not be agreed upon with an an swer suitable to everyone. We did arrange a meeting with Presi dent Rudder before the student council, (this, no doubt, could have been arranged through more appropriate means.) At this meeting, President Rud- Grad Council Sponsors Dance “This Daylight Saving Time is gonna be rough on whistle- jocks for a while!” An informal spring dance will be sponsored by the Texas A&M Graduate Student Council Friday from 8 to 12 p.m. at the Holiday Inn. “Tickets for the dance may be purchased by any student regis tered in graduate school, from any council member or at the Stu dent Programs Office in the Mem orial Student Center,” said coun- der agreed to help the students present their complaint to the Board of Directors. This is all that anyone can ask. I would like to call your attention to the fact that President Rudder had nothing to do with passing the compulsory board regulation. He is not a member of the Board, but it is his job to uphold the Board’s directives. The only way we can even hope to see the regulation changed is to present our ideas through the Student Council. This has been done, and on Thursday night, the Civilian Student Council m a d e provision for a committee’s meet ing with the Boai'd of Directors. In view of these facts, I hope we may all realize that any dem onstrations after, and probably including Wednesday night, can only hurt the University, and therefore the student’s cause. If you wish to show further your opposition to the compul sory board regulation, I suggest that you show the Board of Direc tors your interest in what is, in your opinion, best for the Univer sity by writing to the Board of Directors and presenting your be liefs in a respectful manner. The necessary addresses, etc., are posted on various bulletin boards around campus. Now that the committee to vo ice student opinion has been of ficially formed, I feel that I must withdraw as unofficial spokes man. I can and will do nothing else unless I am one of those ap pointed to that committee. Very truly yours, Cliff Purcell, Box 2945 ★ ★ ★ A course of interest to gradu ate students with research proj ects will be offered during Texas A&M’s first summer session by the Education and Psychology Department.

I’m in the 2nd Battalion, 3rd Infantry (old Guard) of the 199th Inf. Bde in Vietnam. My brother is a fresh man at A&M this year and he wrote and told me the Exchange Store was going to send books to units in V.N.

Located alternately in Paris, Teague Is Named To Ethics Group Representative Olin E. Teague of College Station has been named one of six Democratic members of a committee to set up ethical standards of conduct for legisla tors. The appointment was made by House Ways-and-Means Commit tee, with Representative Melvin Price of Illinois as chairman. The committee is a result of the recent turmoil in Washington over the activities of Adam Clay ton Powell. Teague is presently chairman of the House Veterans Affairs Committee and is the ranking Democrat on the House Science and Astronautics Committee. He will be the ranking Democrat on the new House committee. France, and New York City, the play deals with three executives and a private secretary of Temart Imports, an import-export firm, dealing mainly in Japan and parts of Europe. Oliver Ross, the pres ent vice president in charge of purchases, has let his morals slip somewhat oVer a period of six months, and as a result, finds himself the victim of blackmail and the ultimate loss of his job. The seeming instigator of the plot is Raymond Galloway, Head of European purchases, and his henchman is Bob Reynalds, a pur chasing agent, located in Paris. Playing a valuable part in their plans is Jeanette Tyson, Ross’ private secretary. The plan is quite intriguing and comes off without a hitch, though not to everyone’s satisfaction. cil member Phil Lanasa. “They are $2.50 now, or $3 at the door.” Music will be by the “Yaks”, a local group.
