The Senior Council organized Thursday night and discussed plans to dedicate a memorial park for the Aggie war dead since World War II. Landis Cervenka, a senior in marketing, proposed the idea of the memorial. Cervenka said it would be possible to have two 37 mm anti-tank cannons brought up from Ft. Sam Houston in San Antonio at the expense of the U. S. Army. “The cannons are presently situated around the flag pole of Fort Sam Houston,” Cervenka noted. “I mentioned the possi bility of using the cannons in a memorial, for the Aggie war dead in all the conflicts since World War II, to a general at the post, who said we were wel come to have them. “Also we have a chance that some 105mm cannons could be located. They would all be trans ported at the expense of the Army,” said Cervenka. Although plans are not defin ite, several locations have been proposed for the site of the me morial. The cannons and a plaque listing the war dead could be situated either in the Duncan area or in front of the Systems Administration Building. The possibility that the location of the memorial would be of fensive to the civilian students was raised. Because it was to honor the Aggie war dead, both former civilian students or ca dets, the council agreed that the location was less important than the intent.

Main 822-6000 SAIGON (A*)—The dizzying ups and downs of South Vietnamese politics have produced no more strange personality than the gen eral known as Big Minh—an or chid lover and tennis player be loved by his countrymen. Why they love Duong Van Minh is something of a mystery, particularly to Americans. But love him they do. His record has question marks still being debated. He presided over the coup that ousted autocratic President Ngo Dinh Diem in 1963 and for the next three exhilarating months was South Vietnam’s nominal chief of state. His role in the coup, while decisive, was largely one of a well-liked major general who acted as chairman of the Military Council and went along with the boys. In the next three months the jovial six-foot general placidly did practically nothing. These were days which Americans here recall as “the big disillusion.” But the Vietnamese recall the days with emotional fervor. Minh was looked upon as the father of a new revolution and hope was high among South Viet namese, rich and poor alike. But some Americans, while sharing in the hope, wanted Big Minh to take some concrete steps to make it real. By most evidence, he did little save play tennis and enjoy himself. After three months his fellow officers ousted him in the first of a dismal series of coups. He shortly wound up in exile in Bangkok, Thailand, where he set about raising more orchids and sometimes receiving disgruntled friends from Sqigon. Minh now has been invited to come back to Saigon, his exile lifted by President Nguyen Van Thieu while the political tempera ture of the capita] is noticeably on the rise. Just when he might arrive. Wofford Cain Pool To Close Oct. 12 Traces of summer will be re tained at Texas A&M through Oct. 12, when Wofford Cain Pool closes for the year. The Olympic pool, open to A&M students, former students, faculty-staff and their guests, opened this week for another month of 1968 season operation, announced Dr. Carl W. Landiss, Health and Physical Education Department head. The facility closed between sum mer and fall sessions. Swimming schedules through Oct. 12 will be 2 to 6 p.m. on weekdays, 10 a.m. to noon and 1:30 to 5:30 p.m. Saturdays and 1:30-5:30 p.m. Sundays. however, is still in question. So is the political position he is to be given by Thieu. The role being mentioned is one of almost unbelievable irony. He is to be made, according to palace gossip, the president’s senior advisor on political and military affairs. This was the precise position he held in 1963 when Diem kicked him upstairs in fear of a coup. Obviously, Thieu doesn't fear a repetition of history. Highway Researchers Wrap Up 18-State, Two-Day Meet Here Seeking to increase safety and efficiency of the highway, repre sentatives of 18 states Wednes day ended a two-day meeting with researchers and other highway officials at Texas A&M Univer sity. They serve as a committee for diagnostic studies of highway visual communications systems. The research which is estimated to cost approximately one quar ter million dollars is supported by 18 state highway departments. The U. S. Bureau of Public Roads’ Washington Office will provide technical surveillance of the work. The Texas Transportation Insti tute will conduct the research study in cooperation with the sponsoring state highway depart ments. With F. J. Tamanini of the Bureau of Public Roads in Wash ington, D.

Nance, head of A&M’s history department, announced Kosztolnyik completed his Ph.D. degree requirements in Medieval History at New York University during the summer. He received a B.A. degree from Bona venture University and his master’s from Fordham. He was a Fulbright Scholar at the University of Vien na in 1963-65. Dr. Kosztolnyik’s writings and publications include “Pelbartus of Temesvar: A Franciscan Preacher and Writer of the Later Middle Ages in Hungary,” in Vivarium V in 1967, and “The Importance of Gerald of Csanad as the First Known Author in Hungary,” soon to be published in Traditio. He is currently preparing a work entitled “De rebus Hungari- cis,” a series of eight essays on Hungarian history from the Eleventh through the Nineteenth centuries, including biographies. Kosztolnyik teaches courses in early European and Medieval and Renaissance history. He reads Latin and French, and speaks and writes Hungarian and Ger man. rary chairman, the group elected A. M. White of the Mississippi State Highway Department as chairman and A. E. Johnson, Jr. of the Arkansas Department of Highways as vice chairman. Dr. Neilon J. Rowan of the Texas Transportation Institute is the principal investigator of the diagnostic studies which repre sent a new approach to studying present visual communication systems for improvement to bet ter accommodate motorists on highway facilities. Rowan served on a previous cooperative re search endeavor which success fully produced criteria for safer highway sign supports. Dr. Don Woods of the TTI staff will serve as associate principal investi gator. In addition to the state repre sentatives, other visitors and BPR officials from the Washing ton, D. C., headquarters and several regional offices attended the meeting. Engineering Dean Fred J. Ben son of Texas A&M welcomed the group and Charles J. Keese, TTI director, introduced the research staff and others. Further meet ings will be held in the course of the research.
