The mock trial resulted mainly from the controversy over a “male chauvinist” spirit sign erected by a local frat organiza tion. The fighting feminists used this opportunity to spot light what they feel to be “the oppressed state of women to day.” What resulted on the West Mall was not exactly a trial, but a crowd of about 400 to 500 de bating the legitimacy of the women’s guerrilla group. The women’s lib group was ac cused of inflating the incident of the spirit sign way out of pro portion. Commenting on the attitude of college men, one Liberator said, “They’re very uptight about mas culinity, and they can’t view women as anything other than an object.” * * * Students at the University of Florida marched down University on the tube Numbers in () denote channels on the cable. 2:30 3 (5) Edge of Night 15 (12) Sesame Street (NET) (Repeat of Wednesday) 3:00 3 (5) Corner Pyle 3:30 3 (5) Town Talk 15 (12) Kukla, Fran and Ollie (NET) 4:00 3 (5) Dark Shadows 15 (12) Folk Guitar (ETS) 4:30 3 (5) Bewitched 15 (12) What’s New \(NET) 5:00 3 (5) General Hospital 15 (12) Misterogers’ Neighborhood (NET) 5:30 3 (5) CBS News 15 (12) Sesame Street (NET) 6:00 3 (5) Evening News 6:30 3 (5) Family Affair 15 (12) Campus and Community Today 7:00 3 (5p>Jim Nabors 15 (12) French Chef (PBS) r /:30 15 (12) San Francisco Mix (PBS) 8:00 3 (5) Movie 8:30 15 (12) Feminine Touch 9:00 15 (12) NET Fanfare 10:00 3 (5) Final News 10:30 3 (5) The Immortal 11:30 3 (5) The Detective Cbe Battalion The Battalion, a student newspaper at Texas A&M, is published in Collefre Station, Texas, daily except Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and holiday periods, September through May, and once a week during summer school.

The student, William Baugher, was being held on charges of possessing Marijuana. He was found hanged in his cell. Other prisoners in the cell said they were asleep when the hanging took place. The march was intended to be a protest of William Baugher’s death and conditions in the jail. An enthused female protestor shouted, “We shall overcome,” with a clenched fist. The reply from a prisoner was, “I hope so.” * * * Austin Hippies defeated Cam pus Cops 29-7 last Sunday in a fierce game of softball. The Cops, clad in T-shirts em blazoned with the word “Pigs” failed against the hitting Hip pies. After the game the fans en joyed food served by the “Pigs” and soft drinks served by the Hippies. * * * A student at the University of Southern Louisiana says that “patriotic military men of yes teryear” should volunteer their services in the Vietnam conflict and that if they do so, “the mili tary government should accept them.” The student adds, “Fighting in a previous war is no excuse for not fighting in Vietnam, if one truly believes it is righteous. Why should anyone condemn the other fellow for not wanting to fight, when he himself is only talking support and not acting it?” The Journalism Department will offer a three-hour interdis ciplinary course in science and technical reporting for the spring semester, announced Department Head C. J. Leabo. Journalism 408 is an under graduate course aimed at students and staff members who have an interest in science journalism. Two lecture classes will begin at 5 p.m. and laboratory hours will be arranged for the individual students. William C. Harrison, assistant professor and former West Coast science writer for the Associated Press, will teach the course. Har rison was a Sloan-Rockefeller Ad vanced Science Writing Fellow at ■ Columbia University. Emphasized are the evaluation of science and technology as the)’ involve social processes and the newly emerging surveillance or watchdog role of the science writ er. There are no prerequisites for the course, Leabo added. PALACE BrVwn 2*8879 STARTS TODAY Sophia Loren In “SUNFLOWER” tmmm NOW SHOWING Showtimes — 2:30 - 5:30 - 8:45 PATTON POPULAR PRICES!
