THE BATTALION
College Station, Texas Tuesday, May 2, 1967
CADET SLOUCH

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

Editor;
The Battalion;
Dear Sir;
I’m writing this letter as a
thank you to the people at the
Exchange Store. 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. Through his ef
forts and the wor k of the staff of
the Exchange Store, I have re
ceived 18 bundles of books. These
books will be placed in a Bat
talion library and will be cir
culated and enjoyed by the men
of this unit.
I’d like to thank the Staff of
the Exchange Store for sending
these books — they are much
appreciated. Thank you again
and “gig ’em”! !

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

The appointment was made by
House Ways-and-Means Commit

over the activities of Adam Clay
ton Powell.
Teague is presently chairman
of the House Veterans Affairs
Committee and is the ranking

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.

You can save real money by
buying First National City

summer vacation trip. Read
how.
Normally travelers checks carry

$200, $10 for $1,000, and so forth.
Now, during May only, you can
buy any amount you need — up to
$5,000. worth — for only $2, plus
the face value of the checks. You
could save up to $48. (For less than
$200 worth, of course, the fee is less
than $2.)
If you’re planning a trip to
Europe, what you save from this
offer could pay for an extra day on
the Rhine. Or dinner and Shake
speare at Stratford.
Or a patch of grass at the New
port Jazz Festival, if you’re staying
closer to home.
