New Law Passed
Post Office Curbs Smut Mail
Mail patrons offended by offen-
fal give advertisements can now take
steps to curb such mail, Post-
Wi master Ernest Greg-g- said Tues
day in announcing plans for ad-
" ministering a new law which gives
each family the right to decide
that an ad is “erotically arousing
or sexually provocative.”
When an advertisement sent
through the mails is offensive on
these grounds, a postal patron
can now ask the post office to
direct the mailer to send no more
mail to him and to immediately
remove the patron’s name from
all mailing lists he owns, controls
or rents.
To assist patrons, the Post Of
fice Department has published a
brief pamphlet — How You Can
Curb Pandering Advertisements
— which is now available at the
College Station Post Office. In
addition to explaining how the
law works, the pocket-size leaflet
contains a form letter one can use
when sending his complaint to the
post office.
The pamphlet explains that
when a patron receives an adver
tisement which is, in his opinion,
pandering, he must send the ad,
its envelops and the form letter,
or one which includes its lan
guage, to his post office with
the words, “Request for prohibi
tory order” on the face of the
envelope.
Postmaster Gregg said “This
new law should give some pro
tection to American families of
fended by advertisements they
belief to be morally harmful, par
ticularly to their children.
“Last year the Post Office De
partment received some 140,000
complaints from those offended
by pandering advertisements.
While in most cases the ads were
not legally obscene and were
therefore mailable, they are often
offensive and are not the type of
material one would want his chil
dren to read.”
He added that “because the law
gives a mail patron the sole right
to decide what is offensive, and
does not deny others the right to
receive the same mail, the Con
gress felt it does not violate Con
stitutional guarantees of freedom
of speech.”
While the patron’s complaint
will only be directed to the send
er, Postmaster Gregg believes
that one or two complaints will
provide substantial protection
because “the great bulk of this
advertisement comes from fewer
than 20 so-called ‘smut dealers’
who are frequently swapping
mailing lists.”
If a mailer does not strike a
complaintant’s name from this
mailing list, and the patron re
ceives a second mailing 30 days
after the firm has received the
prohibitory order, he may bring
the matter to the attention of the
Postmaster issuing the initial
order by writing him and enclos
ing the second pandering aid with
its envelope.

A Man Of Many Interests
Was A Former Pro Boxer
By TOM CURL
Battalion Special Writer
Russell K. Wieder, assistant
professor of physical education,
is a man of many interests, rang
ing from fencing to painting.
Wieder came to A&M from
Western Reserve College in 1956.
He specializes in teaching fencing
and wrestling and was coach of
the Aggies for 10 years in these
sports.
The stocky man has been a pro
fessional boxer, fencer and diver.
In addition, he has competed as
an amateur in wrestling and
swimming.
Although Wieder has competed
in many sports, his favorite is
fencing.
He studied under the fencing
masters Generoso Pavese and
Leonardo Terrone. At the age of
19, Wieder defeated Terrone, who
at that time was European fenc
ing champion.
Wieder coached the Aggie fenc
ing team from 1956-66.
“We (the fencing team) never
lost a dual meet in those 10
years,” he said.
“We were 12th in the nation
in 1958,” he continued. This is
the best showing that any south
ern team has ever made.
In 1965, Wieder received a
Master’s Certificate from the Na-
23 Students
Initiated In
Honor Society
Twenty-three A&M meteorol
ogy students were initiated into
Chi Epsilon Pi, an honor society
for meteorology students on
Tuesday.
The group consists of an Army
major, a Weather Bureau em
ployee, USAF officers and Aggie
undergraduate and graduate stu
dents in meteorology. All have
exhibited both a high level of
academic proficiency and great
interest in the atmospheric sci
ences.
The purposes of the society
are to serve as a means of award
ing distinction to students having
scholastic ability and who show
promise of achievement in mete
orology and related atmospheric
sciences.
The initial chapter of Chi Epsi
lon Pi was organized at UCLA in
1950 and the Texas A&M chap
ter was formed in 1963. Other
chapters are now in existence at
Oklahoma University, Florida
State University and the Uni-

tional Professional Fencing
Coaches Association.
Wrestling is another strong in
terest of the multi - talented
teacher.
He coached the A&M wrestling
team for 10 years at the same
time he coached the fencing team.
Art Classes
This Summer
Special art classes will be of
fered by Texas A&M’s School of
Architecture during the first
summer session.
The graphic arts classes con
ducted by Joseph Donaldson,
architecture artist-lecturer, will
be offered June 4-July 12, an
nounced Prof. Edward J. Ro-
mieniec, Architecture School
chairman.
“Important emphasis will be
given various aspects of drawing
and sketching in a wide range of
media and objectives,” Romieniec
said. “Emphasis will also be given
the use of water color, acrylic
vinyl pigments and related
media.”
Though designed primarily for
architecture majors, the program
is open to the public and requires
no previous art training for qual
ified participants who have com
pleted high school. Academic
credit may also be achieved by
non-architecture participants.
Professors Donaldson and T. R.
Holleman, will provide additional
information.

For Staff Dinner
The wrestling team lost only one
dual meet in that decade.
When asked about his greatest
thrill as a coach, Wieder answered
that it was the Southwest Con
ference Wrestling Championships
in 1959.
“We won it by more points
than all the other schools com
bined,” the soft-spoken man said.
“We could have gone home at
noon and still won the meet,” he
said with pride.
This semester Wieder is teach
ing fencing 16 hours and wres
tling six hours per week.
Sports are not Wieder’s only
interests. He also is a profes
sional artist.
“I’ve painted and sold several
portraits,” he remarked.
A painting in his office at G.
Rollie White Coliseum shows a
death mask reflected in three
mirrors.
The educator graduated from
Kenyon College in 1942 with
majors in physical education, his
tory and foreign languages. He
has done graduate work at West
Missouri University.
Wieder and his family live at
1106 Foster Ave. in College Sta
tion. His daughter is nine years
old. An older daughter recently
received a Ph.D. in German.
When asked about his age, the
man smiled and said, “That is
pretty much of a secret as far as
I’m concerned.”
Future plans are quite definite.
“I will continue to teach fenc
ing as long as I can stand up,”
he said.
