The standOUT® pocket-model
reference marker by Eberhard Faber
makes printed material leap off
the page.
Use it to emphasize words, titles,
numbers and other important points.
In reports, textbooks, outlines, maps.
Everywhere something has to
stand out. On any kind of paper. j:j
The pocket-size standOUT goes to
class with you, goes anywhere you go.
Makes it easy for you to take better
notes, by marking the high spots with
a bright yellow or pink color for fast,
easy reference.
Do it right. With the standOUT.

Schedules for delayed registra
tion and adding and dropping
courses this fall have been an
nounced by Registrar R. A. Lacey.
Delayed registration—for stu
dents who have not pre-registered
— began Monday and ocntinues
through Sept. 19.
If such students were enrolled
at Texas A&M last spring, they
should secure their registration
card packets at their major de
partments, Lacey emphasized.
He said students who were not
enrolled during the spring semes
ter, and have not pre-registered,
may secure their packets in the
foyer of the Coke Building.
All delayed registration stu
dents must be enrolled in their
courses by the advisor in their
major departments, Lacey added.
Students will then turn in the
packets at the west entrance of
the Cushing Building, where they
should return the following day
to pay fees and obtain their class
schedules.
Lacey said the schedule for
adding courses also began Mon
day and continues through Sept.
19. Deadline for dropping courses
is Sept. 30.
To add or drop a course, the
registrar explained, the student
begins the process with the ad
visor in his major department.
He should then turn in the add-
drop request, if approved by his
advisor, at the add-drop head
quarters in the old fire station
across the street from the Ex
change Store. Revised schedules
can be picked up the following
day at the same location.
Registration officials warned
that students risk the possibility
of having new schedules compiled
when they add courses.
The university computer will
initially attempt to add the course
without altering the existing
schedule. If there is a conflict
between the existing schedule and
the course to be added, the com
puter will erase all the assign
ments and attempt to find a work
able revised schedule.
One exception to the procedure
of attempting to keep the existing
schedule is when a student re
quests a free-time course or a
specific section. In such a case,
the computer will assume the
course could not be inserted in
the existing schedule and will
automatically attempt to find a
new one.
Classes begin at 8 a.m. Monday.
FUN AND GAMES

More than 400 of the univer
sity’s present and future leaders
. returned to the campus Tuesday
afternoon from the three-day
YMCA Freshman Camp.
“You are taking your first steps
toward becoming a man,” camp
director Gary Anderson told the
new freshmen during the final
bonfire Monday night.
“A&M molds the total man,”
the Dallas senior declared. “If
you take advantage of A&M’s
opportunities, you will be that
total man when you graduate.”
Located near Palestine, the
camp is sponsored by the campus
YMCA each year for outstanding
freshmen. One hundred of the
university’s top student leaders
are counselors and 25 faculty
members and friends of A&M
serve as speakers.
The new “fish” left the campus
Saturday afternoon after Presi
dent Earl Rudder welcomed them
to the university and told them
how important they were to A&M.
Two Bryan-College Station
businessmen Monday emphasized
the importance of being honest
during their college life.
Mike Mistovich, president of
radio station KORA, recommend
ed the new freshmen do the very
best they can during their college
careers.
“Most of your parents are mak
ing great sacrifices to send you
to college, Mistovich noted. “Don’t
disappoint them.”
Barney Welch, a life insurance
agent, told the fish to be “honest

Welch said he knows of no good
Christian ever leaving A&M be
cause of poor grades.
YMCA Cabinet President Ed
Donnell of Jones Creek said “this
was one of the best fish camps
ever held.”
Pueblo Crewman
Scheduled to Talk
Here on Tuesday
A former crewman of the USS
Pueblo who spent 11 months in
North Korean prisons will de
scribe his experiences and the
lessons he learned during his cap
tivity at 8 p.m. Tuesday in the
Bryan Civic Auditorium.
Lee R. Hayes will speak on
“Remember the Pueblo!”, an ac
count of his experiences during
capture and imprisonment and
an analysis of the factors which
produced the Pueblo incident.
Hayes is making a three-week
tour of the area. His speech here
is sponsored by the Brazos County
TRAIN (To Restore American
Independence Now) Committee
and endorsed by the local Ameri
can Legion post.
Describing himself as “a former
average American who did not
appreciate our marvelous heritage
until I temporarily lost it,” Hayes
decided not to reenlist in the
Navy, but joined the John Birch
Society instead and says he is
working to “restore Americanist
principles to our foreign policy.”
Chairman of the local TRAIN
committee is Dr. Charles Ray
Douglas. Tickets are available at
all banks, the YMCA or by calling
846-6928. Donations are $1 in
advance, $1.50 at the door, and
half price for high school and
college students.
A&M Changes
To Four-Point
Grade System
Texas A&M is now operating
under the “four point” grading
system, reminded Registrar R.
A. Lacey.
A&M revised its grading plan
June 1, changing from the
“three point” system which it
followed since the early 1930s.
Under the new system, ap
proved last summer by the A&M
Academic Council, an “A” will
count four grade points per
semester hour, a “B” will count
three points, a “C” will count
two and a “D” will count one
grade point. There will be no
grade point credits for "Fs".
The plan also defines “A" ai
90-100, “B” as 80-89, “C” as
70-79, “D” as 60-69 and T
below 60.
Lacey said one point has been
added to each student’s overall
grade point ratio. For example,
he said a student who had a two
point grade point ratio — or B
average—at the end of the spring
semester will return to A&M with
a three point grade point ratio-
still a B.
The registrar said the new
grading system will “result in a
number of changes in procedures,
“It is somewhat confusing to
the students and staff alike," he
noted.
