Editor:
I am writing this letter to
The Battalion in reference to the
attitude of the Editor throught
(sic) this year. I'm a CT and
proud of it.
I’m not going to refer to any
issue in general in this letter,
but to your “projected” attitude
throughtout (sic) the year. You
have done nothing but encite
(sic) dissention (sic) among
Non-Reg’s — CT’s throughtout
(sic) the year. As a newspaper
man and a representative of the
entire school (which includes
both CT’s and Non-Reg’s) it is
your duty to present facts and
articles of interest to the school.
However, throughout the year
you have done nothing but pro
ject your “petty” views of your
dislike for the Corps of Cadets.
Some of us (Aggies) would
like to end this conflict between
the two fractions (sic) and start
living together as Aggies. Why
don’t you help? I’m not inter
ested in your “petty” views con
cerning CT’s, as I’m sure that
you are not interested in mine
concerning Non-Reg’s. If you

want to be a trouble maker, go
somewhere else.

Things you need to do:
1) Prove your point with spe
cific, not your idea of “ ‘pro
jected’ attitudes” or generaliza
tions.
2) Remember that you don’t
have to “dislike” something to
criticize it.
3) Take remedial spelling.

Tora! Tora! Tora! great
By D. P. FONTANA
This weekend there will be
hold-overs of both of the movies
reviewed last week. Dirty Harry
will play downtown at the Pal
ace. So, if you missed Clint East-
wood, San Francisco, or Lolita’s
act last week, you now have an
other chance.
The historical accuracy of the
film is superb, and the historical
“fairness” in handling the events
is exceptional. As you are prob
ably aware, many veteran organ
izations across the country re
sented the “fairness” which was
employed (as well as the fact
that a Japanese film company
There is also a good — though
two years old — new movie in
B-CS. Tora! Tora! Tora!, which
is playing at the Campus, is
guaranteed to cause an unofficial
Corps Trip to that theatre. This
movie will certainly appeal to
anyone interested in history,
militaria, or spectacle. This flick
has been billed as the “most spec
tacular movie ever filmed” and
has some footage of the most
elaborate model photography
ever produced. The film also can
boast of a very fine all-star (in
ternational) cast. The movie is,
of course, the story of the events
surrounding the attack upon
Pearl Harbor. The movie was
co-operatively produced by Amer
ican and Japanese film studios
and released simultaneously on
both sides of the Pacific. The
American print of the film has
English subtitles superimposed
when the Japanese actors speak,
and the print of the film for
Japan subtitled the English dia
logue. American actors in the
film include Martin Balsam,
James Whitmore, Joseph Cotton
and E. G. Marshall. Japanese
actors include Soh Yamamura,
Takahiro Tamura, Tatsuya Mi-
hashi, Eijiro Tono, and Koreya
Senda.
MSC Council
has selected
new officers
The present Memorial Student
Center Council has selected eight
officers for next year’s council.
Wade Seidel of Brenham was
named Executive Vice-President
of Projects and Pat Lucey of Bry
an became Executive Vice-Presi
dent of Committees.
Vice-Presidents for Operations,
Issues, Programs, and Recreation
are Don Webb of Arlington, Ro
chelle Lindsey of Pasadena, Mark
Cuculic of Center, and Steve
Waring of Houston, respectively.
was splitting the profits from a
movie dealing with Pearl Harbor
with an American company.
Peace makes strange bedfellows.)
At any rate, the movie is well
worth the $2 you’ll have to pay
for its ticket, and this film de
serves a Film G.P.R. = 3.2.
Those of you who missed last
weekend’s fare at the Palace, J.
W. Coop, will find that it is also
still in town. It and A Man
Called Sledge will play at the
Skyway Twin. On the other
screen at the Twin, you will be
able to see two really horrible
horror movies.
However, don’t dispair. The
next feature at the Campus will
be The Devils which is a very
fine motion picture starring Va
nessa Redgrave and Oliver Reed.
This will definitely be a movie
that you won’t want to miss.
Nor will you want to miss Ryan’s
Daughter, the next film at the
Palace. This is another David
Lean (Bridge on the River Kwai,
Lawrence of Arabia, Doctor Zhi
vago) production and boasts a
star-filled cast.
Also named to the Council were
Gary Reger of Wellborn as Pub
lic Relations Directors and Caroll
Flournoy of Breckenridge as
Council Comptroller.
The new officers will be re
sponsible for working with coun
cil and directorate activities. They
will begin serving on the new
council March 22.
If you can’t wait for a new
movie to arrive and have seen
Tora! Tora! Tora!, you might
try Houston (so far, no Frolic
has been scheduled for this week
end). And, if you are in Hous
ton, try to get tickets to Clock
work Orange. This is Stanley
Kubrick’s (2001) new film and
has already won Film Critic’s
Award for both Best Picture and
Best Producer for this year.
However, be forewarned, this
may be the most violence-filled
film ever produced.

Editor:
We would like to say some
thing else concerning the rela
tionship between Sam Houston
State and Texas A&M. We have
read the past letters written by
a Sam Houston female student,
but we too have a story to tell.
After visiting the great uni
versity last weekend, our return
trip to Sam Houston on Sunday
night was quite eventful. Before
reaching Roans Prairie, misfor
tune took its toll — two helpless
females encountered themselves
with a flat tire. Not being able
to live up to the expectations of
the Women’s Liberation Move
ment, we found ourselves strand
ed on the side of the road. Be
fore experiencing sheer panic, a
passing driver stopped to offer
aid. Not only did he have to
change a flat tire, but then had
to take care of a weak battery.
This good Samaritan was obvi
ously an Aggie on his way to
visit our beloved campus, Sam
Houston State.
The purpose of this letter is
to thank not only this Aggie, but
all other Aggies who have given
of their time and patience to the
stranded and helpless. We have
high regard and respect for such
A&M gentlemen. It is these
common courtesies which foster
friendly attitudes between our
campuses.
One Reminder: Aggies are wel
come at Sam Houston anytime.

Editor:
In view of the recent successes
of the A&M Rugby Club, I think
the rugby players should get to
use Kyle Field while everyone
else, including the football team,
uses the drill field. I hope that
they would dig up all that fake
plastic grass though, and play
in the real grass and occasional
mud as they did against Argen
tina. It looks like it’s much
more fun that way.
