Welfare Committee Chairman Charles Hicks told the Senate 40 orphans from Faith Home in Houston will be on campus for the Rice game. In response to questions, Hicks explained the program is about three years old and costs about $24, paid for out of the Campus Chest fund. Hicks also said Campus Chest began funding the two children in Oklahoma when Bill Carter was Senate president during 1968- 69. Through the Christian Chil dren’s Fund, the Senate pays $100 per year to sponsor Carla Remer and her brother in Oklahoma. He said his committee is con sidering whether the Senate should continue to support Carla and her brother or spend the money in the Bryan College Sta tion area. Vice President Roger Miller said his Academic Excellence Committee is compiling informa tion from other schools on pro fessor-course evaluations. He said some schools budget up to $10,- 000 for the project. Miller also said communica tions with Academic Vice Presi dent Dr. Horace R. Byers have revealed there is no official dead week, a period before finals when quizzes and term papers cannot be given or made due. Byers did indicate, Miller said, he is willing to talk with him about the matter. President Kent Caperton told senators he believes revision of the Senate constitution is needed, and that the committee already assigned to study the area has not been active. He then, with Senate approval, named himself chairman of a new committee and appointed Miller, Tommy Henderson (sr-LA), Duryea, John Sharp, Life Committee chairman, Tommy Mayes (jr-LA), Kirby Brown, Issues Committee chair man and Randall Betty (sr-Ag) members. In other Senate action: —C. A. Bedinger (grad) urged senators to think about changes that may have to be made in the Bonfire as far as procedures and even continuation are concerned. He termed current practices “ecological rape.” —Henderson, Texas Intercol legiate Student Association pres ident, said TISA is hiring an executive director to keep an eye on legislation of interest to stu dents. —Caperton said he will be in Austin next week participating in Gov. Smith’s Governor’s Confer ence on Children and Youth. d « 4 CXJIYL IN T Ht /\ m \ VI \ WEST SCREEN AT 6:15 P. M. “HOUSE OF DARK SHADOWS” At 8:20 p. m. “GREEN SLIM” EAST SCREEN AT 6:20 P. M.

FOR BEST RESULTS TRY BATTALION CLASSIFIED Review (continued from page 1) college will not put up with it (the discrimination) without straightening it out. “I don’t believe any member of my faculty is guilty of such ac tions, but if they are I would be open immediately to evidence that would establish that this is the case,” he said. “There is no such thing as free dom of the press in an absolute sense. All papers are subject to restraint, not just legal but as a matter of fairness,” the dean added. Miss Wallace said she didn’t see how anyone could say some one’s opinion is irresponsible un less they’ve been through the same experience. “When a person has an opin ion, his opinion is really hard to prove,” she said. “For example, perhaps a girl could say A&M doesn’t like her and is trying to get rid of her, but you could probably find no overt examples to prove it. If we didn’t have opinion, we wouldn’t have thought. I think opinion should be allowed to be expressed when it’s labeled as such.” The first issue of The Review has gone to press without the GSC (continued from page 1) by the incumbent council prior to spring election of Graduate Stu dent Council members,” accord ing to the by-laws. There are no other requirements for president. Land said he had indicated he might become a faculty member at the time of his election last spring and that he was still qual ified under the present constitu tion. “I have urged constitutional revision to insure this type of situation does not occur again,” he said. “To work toward this end, I appointed Ernie Davis chairman of the constitutional revision committee on Sept. 17. “I did not resign in accordance with the 6-4 vote of the council, because I did not feel it was an overwhelming mandate and I wanted to set a precedent,” he said. “However, we are stuck on one issue, so in an effort to move on to other issues, the council may consider this statement my resignation if the GSC feels it is in the best interests of all con cerned.” Before the vote, Wayne Brun- gard stressed that the vote was on an issue of principle, not on personality. Davis’s committee submitted a draft of the proposed revision of the by-laws and moved for quick approval, but the council finally agreed to table it until the next regular meeting. McGill scheduled a special meeting for Nov. 5, but stressed that there will be no vote until the middle of November. The most controversial provi sion is one which limits member ship on the council to graduate students “whose total responsi bilities are not greater than 50 per cent faculty load.” Some members said that mem bership should be limited to stu dents only, with no provision for part-time employment on the faculty. “A faculty member is a facul ty member is a faculty member,” Land said. “I realize that by say ing this I’m kicking myself in the pants, but I don’t think a faculty member should serve on the GSC. I don’t think it should be 50 per cent.” Others expressed concern about whether graduate assistants would be eligible if the 50 per cent employment level were omitted. “If you exclude graduate as sistants, you might as well for get this organization as a viable body on campus,” said Dr. George W. Kunze, dean of the Graduate College. “They are consistently stronger students and represent a sizeable number of graduate students on campus.” Senior & Graduate Students Make sure your picture will be in the 1971 Aggieland M-N-O—Oct. 26-30 P-Q-R—Nov. 1-6 S-T-U—Nov. 9-13 V-W-X-Y-Z—Nov. 16-20 Make-up week—Nov. 23 - Dec. 11 Civilians — Coat and Tie Corps Seniors — Uniform: Class A Winter Pictures will be taken from 8:00 a. m. to 5:00 p. m. NOTE: BRING FEE, SLIPS UNIVERSITY STUDIO 115 N. Main — North Gate article articles, she said. If either of the articles ever runs, it will be a “long time,” because of the dif ficulty in verifying parts of them, she added. “Because Dean Maxwell and I do not agree on the publication of opinion, I do not think that Giles’ article will ever run, be cause it is an opinion. If I clianged it to meet Maxwell’s specifications it would turn out to be something else which is not what I was trying to present,” Miss Wallace said*. Maxwell said he has evidence some of the information in the original article is untrue, and this information would have been easy for Miss Wallace to obtain. Miss Wallace said one incident involved a black student’s grades and to her knowledge she did not have access to this informa tion. The student said in the dia logue that he had been given two Ds and an F in English for themes relating to the black man and four As for themes relating aspects of Aggie spirit, Miss Wallace said. She did not try to confirm this because, she said, from past ex perience she knew records of this type were not available to stu dents. “Once, when I was working on a story for The Battalion, I called two administrators to find out if a student was on conduct probation,” she said, “and nei ther would tell me.” She said Maxwell later told her he had checked the student’s grades and they were not as the story stated. She said Maxwell had told her this, but had never shown her the grades. “If this incident happened I’m sure the student wouldn’t still have the themes,” she said. He said “It happened a couple of years ago, and we couldn’t prove it now.” “I’m not trying to cause trou ble or be irresponsible,” she said. She mentioned a 1969 Supreme Court ruling the University of Maryland “Argus” magazine case which forbids censorship of university press. “ ‘The Argus’ was printing an inverted burning American flag,” she said, “something I would never dream of doing.” THE BATTALION Friday, October -30, 1970 College Station, Texas Page 3 Sbisa and Duncan have large menus A&M’s two giant dining halls are serving up more than a half million pounds of beef this year to help satisfy 6,500 Aggies. The annual menu at Sbisa and Duncan Halls also includes 100,- 000 pounds each of chicken and pork, 75,000 pounds of seafood, 325,000 eggs, 215,000 pies and cobblers, 500,000 donuts and more than two million cups of coffee. Include assorted vegetables, fruits, bread, butter, beverages and related items and it adds up to a lot of groceries. That’s what it takes to set tables for A&M’s residence hall students and the majority of the members of the Corps of Cadets, said Col. Fred Dollar, food serv ices director. The on-campus students repre sent slightly less than half of the university’s total 14,406 enroll ment. Majority of the off-campus students are married and many of them are graduate students. As is readily apparent, beef is the first meat choice of the dining hall students, accounting for more than half of the 1.1 million pounds of meat roasted, broiled, boiled, baked or fried each year. Beans and peas rank high in the vegetable category. Less pop ular are squash, cauliflower, beets and the whole green family. Meals are planned on a five- week cycle. The master menu in cludes 16 beef, 10 poultry, seven seafood, three pork and 11 mis cellaneous meat selections. Also included in the overall menu are 70 different vegetable variations, 27 salads and 18 dressings. Whatever the specific menu, Dollar said dining hall meals are planned to provide at least the daily standards of nutrients. A recent study revealed the care fully planned menus exceed the daily standards in some 10 differ ent areas.
