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.

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.”

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.”

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.
A hangover
isift funny
A hangover can be just about the
most distressing combination of
pain, nausea, depression and fa
tigue you ever woke up with.
Simple headache tablets or alka-
lizers alone can’t do the whole
job. You need a combination of
special ingredients to chase those
multiple miseries. Formulated
specially for hangover. CHASER
combines nine ingredients in
every tablet.
So, pain disappears fast. Your
stomach calms down. Your spir
its perk up.
