“THE BROTHERHOOD,"
showing across the street, is like
an Excedrin headache commer
cial ten minutes short of two
hours long.
Like the Excedrin commercial,
“The Brotherhood” takes the lit
tle glimpses of life that seem too
much for us and focuses on them.
For example, it takes Kirk
Douglas, big brother of Vince,
played by Alex Cord, and shows
him to be the last of the tough-
gutted Mafians, a reluctant play
er in the modern-day crime syn
dicate game.
Douglas is a member of the
old style—the ones who jour
neyed from Sicily and scraped
life off dirty streets and depress
ing times. He is bad in gram
mar and won’t accept modern-
day electronics purchases by the
Aggie General

Y 1 1 Air Force Brig. Gen. Kyle L.
Riddle, a 1937 A&M graduate,
will retire soon with 30 years
military service.
Chief of staff at 12th Air Force
Headquarters, Bergstrom AFB,
General Riddle is a command
pilot and has served with distinc
tion. He wears the Silver Star,
Legion of Merit with oak leaf
cluster, Distinguished Flying
Cross, Air Medal with eight oak
leaf clusters and the French
Croix de Guerre with Palm.
The 55-year-old Decatur native
attended Decatur Baptist College
and completed agricultural ad
ministration studies here in 1937.
General Riddle was plans and
training staff officer of the 2nd
Battalion Infantry Staff in the
Cadet Corps and a letterman
pitcher of the Aggie baseball
team. He was in the “T” Club
with Charles DeWare, all-confer
ence football center; All-America
guard Joel Routt and Dick Todd.
The general was commissioned
and earned his wings at Kelly
Field. He flew in Panama and
Caribbean Commands, command
ed squadron and group P-38 pilot
training units and took the 479th
Fighter Group to England.
Member of the first Armed
Forces Staff College graduating
class, he held posts in the Con
tinental Air Command, Armed
Forces Special Weapons Com
mand at Sandia Base, N.M., and
tactical units before becoming
17th Air Force chief of staff.
From inspector general and other
Tactical Air Command assign
ments, General Riddle became
chief of the Military Assistance
Advisory Group-Japan in 19^6.
He went from MAAG to Berg
strom last July.
The officer and his wife, the
former Davilla Jane St. Clair,
have four children.
Syndicate, which hopes to make
it big in labor and government
job contracts with federal govern
ment, thus making themselves in-
dispensible.
VINCE IS a member of the
new set. Two college degrees,
his Army obligation behind him,
he is ready to embark on the pro
verbial career of the Anglo-Sax
on, middle-class ex-Sicilian.
Only he doesn’t. He wants to
enter the syndicate game, as he
tells big brother. Big brother
takes him in.
In fact, he is taken in by ev
erybody in the syndicate.
But that’s just the beginning.
Big brother finds out from his
old group of Mafia compadres
who leaked the information used
to knock off 41 good strong rela
tives 35 years ago. One of those
relatives was Pappa Gionetta,
leader of the pack, father of the
two brothers.
DOUGLAS DISPOSES of the
informer in a remarkably blood
less way for the type of film this
is.
What happens after big broth
er continually says no to the syn
dicate’s idea of work for the gov
ernment in vital electronic fields ?
Cottonseed flour is seen as a
possible answer for much of the
protein malnutrition in his native
India by Dr. Bantval P. Baliga,
who has returned here from
Bombay, where he is head of re
search and development for Tata
Oils.
“The addition of cottonseed
flour to the wheat flour pres
ently used could eliminate the
problem of lack of protein for
those consuming it,” Baliga ex
plains.
Mrs. Baliga, who is enjoying
her first visit to the United
States, served three kinds of In
dian foods containing cottonseed
flour to members of the Cotton

Research Committee of Texas at
a recent luncheon here.
“The men seemed to enjoy my
chirotis, puris, and chapatis,” she
reported, basing the opinion on
the speed with which they dis
appeared.
The Baligas were guests of Dr.
Carl M. Cater, head of the Cot
tonseed Products Research Lab
oratory of the Texas Engineer
ing Experiment Station.
The Cottonseed Products Re
search Laboratory has conduct
ed research concerning cotton
seed protein for human consump
tion for several years with the
cooperation of the Cotton Re
search Committee.
“I believe a capability in
this type of food research
which is not found anywhere
else,” Baliga said. He mentioned
Cater, Dr. Karl F. Mattil, di
rector of Food Products Research,
and Dr. Carl M. Lyman, professor
of Soil and Crop Sciences, as
leaders in the field.
Baliga received his Ph.D. from
A&M in 1956 and is now a post
doctoral fellow in the Biochem
istry and Biophysics Department.
He has been instrumental in
moving Tata Oils, a highly diver
sified consumer goods enterprise,
into the area of peanut products
and more recently, into cotton
seed products.
“Cotton is grown extensively
Lnd quite well in India,” he
pointed out. “It seems wiser to
me to concentrate on growing
better cotton than to introduce
new crops at this time.”
“Tata recently acquired a large
crushing unit in Madras from a
Dutch concern. We are modern
izing it and plan to produce edi
ble cottonseed flour from both
glanded and glandless seeds,”
Baliga continued.
Included among the high-pro
tein products which have been
successfully manufactured utiliz
ing cottonseed flour are dairy-
type products, meat-type prod
ucts, dough products, cereal
products, macaroni-type products
and specialty foods such as diet
foods, beverages, survival ra
tions, confections, and coatings.
The Baligas have traveled ex
tensively since September but
are ardent admirers of Texas
and enthusiastic practitioners of
the “Aggie Spirit.” They will
return to Bombay in May.
What happens after he makes his
final hit on the man who was
responsible for the death of his
father ?
That’s the key to the whole
film. That’s also the thing that
essentially distinguishes it from
the Excedrin commercial.
Excedrin headaches go away.
The problems of being integrally
involved in deliberate, illegal
crime, don’t.
As Douglas says in one moving
moment: “They’ve got you by
the throat.”
Kirk Douglas is the only one
in the cast who does a fair job
of playing the part, and that, one
is led to believe, was in spite of
the producer-directors. The re
mainder of the film is too slow,
too foggy, and not up to profes
sional par.
“Bullitt,” another crime film
with only slight similarities, puts
it in the shade.
“The Brotherhood” pursues a
course of pseudo-realism; while
trying to be realistic, it doesn’t
quite make it, but it’s not so far
out that what takes place is ut
terly impossible.
What it is, is a good, depress
ing attempt.
