WATCH OUT, HUSKIES! The Corps of
Cadets’ will begin its March on Moscow
on May 7. Shown here is one of the
nuclear missiles that will accompany the
soldiers, scholars and knightly gentlemen
on the 5,500-mile march.
Rata-tat-tat, Corps public relations
coordinator, said the Dallas Cowboy
Cheerleaders and Miss Texas A&M
will be on hand to referee the war
games.
When asked what the group would
do when confronted with the icy cold
North Pole, GungHo said, “We’ll take
thermal underwear.”
GungHo said they don’t expect to
encounter any heavy resistance at the
Russian border.
“We expect to lose a few thousand
on the initial penetration of the Rus-
kie border and the march to Moscow,
but we should have no serious diffi
culties,’ GungHo said. “Your average
Commie is no threat to a healthy red-
blooded, fightin’ Texas Aggie.”
Beat the hell outta Moscow,” he
said.
About half the Aggie Band is ex
pected to march with the Corps to
Moscow. Band members are being
suited with special combat gear.
“ f he band is going to be prepared
to play the Aggie War Hymn on an
integrated battle field — which means
chemical, nuclear and biological war
fare,” GungHo said.
When asked if any U.S. forces
would be helping, GungHo said:
“They are welcome to help if they
want. But they have to remember that
we’re the leaders in this operation.”
GungHo said that Student Govern
ment leaders may be contacted as pos
sible delegates to communicate with
the Russian leaders. He said they also
could act as provisional leaders when
the Russian government is over
thrown.
“It could be a learning experience
for all of us,” said Student Body Presi

Hr talked about this (special
events center) until 1 was blue ... uh,
maroon ... in the face,” Attack said.
“You two-percenters didn’t lilt a darn
finger so I decided to do something—
I want to annex Houston.
“I’ve talked to Mayor Tootsie
’Whitmire and she said it was okay by
her. That way, we could have the
Summit and the Albert Thomas (Con
vention Center downtown and could
have basketball games in one and that
high-falutin' opera stuff in the other.”
Houston city officials, who
attended today’s meeting, said they
didn’t really care.
“It’s a cesspool surrounded by a
giant parking lot called the Loopf”
Whitmire said. “If those know-it-all
Aggies think they can do anything
with it, more power to them.”
Brite thanked Whitmire, calling
her “a great inspiration for all the lit
tle ladies in America.”
He added: “After the Aggies take
over. I’m sure we can make Houston
just as preeminent as Texas A&M.”
Vanaucci then said: “Hold it.
Ultra. You’re always calling A&M
preeminent. Well, I like ‘world uni
versity.’ I'm president here — that
means I have power and I get to
choose the adjective for Aggieland.”
After Brite stopped laughing, he
said: “You’re right, Francesco, we
need to straighten this out right now.
I say Texas A&M Preeminent Univer
sity — TAMPU — sounds better than
TAMWU — Texas A&M World Uni
versity. That sounds downright Com
munist. And you know how they want
to infiltrate our precious bodily
fluids.”
“It does not sound Communist,”
Vanducci said.
“Does too!”
“Does not!”
“Does too!”
“Does not!”
The debate ended when Vanducci
was dragged kicking and screaming
from the room. After he had been
bound and gagged, he was allowed to
return to the meeting.
“Mmpvf, mrrff, rurrph,” he said.
After some semblance of order was
restored, regents heard committee
reports on Target 2001, a space odys
sey designed to put Aggies on Jupiter,
and the University’s proposed re
search park.
Brite said: “This park will show the
research world that A&M is truly
preeminent.”
“Rrld oonvrsty!”
“Who rattled your cage, Frankie?”
Regent Ant then said: “I bloody
well don’t even know what ydu chaps
are talking about. Let’s forget this
crackpot history and do another
song.”
Ant's suggestion was overruled and
the meeting continued with a report
from the Planning and Building
Committee, chaired by Chairman Joe
“Jolly” Greengiant.
The board approved the approp
riation of $2.3 million for the pre
liminary design of a new former stu
dents’ lounge. The four-story lounge,
which will be in the south end zone of
Kyle Field, will be connected to the
north endzone prestige boxes by an
elevated monorail system — the “Cot
ton Bowl Express.”
The lounge is expected to be com
pleted by the kickoff of the 1984 foot
ball season.
The board also approved the fol
lowing items suggested by the Com
mittee for Academic Campuses:
— S 12.4 million for the College of
Engineering. I he appropriation
came as a surprise to Dr. H.I. Salary,
who said the college still had money
left over from the $15 million
appropriated in January. But Com
mittee Chairman Ali explained the
move: 1
“They didn’t ask for the money,
They didn’t come to me. j
But I want that college
To be the best it can be.”
— $249 for the College of Liberal
Arts.
The money was appropriated after
Dr. Whitman Faulkner Steinbeck,
dean of the college, asked the board
to replace the tarpaper shacks the col
lege now is using for classrooms.
Ali said:
“He groveled for money, he
whined like a pup.
Maybe this pittance will make him
shut up.”
— $3.50 for paper clips for Tarle-
ton State University.
“Where’s that?” Ali asked.
The request was referred to the
Committee for Finding Academic
Campuses.

of choice, right? Everyone has the
choice of liking what we like cor not.”
Woodhead also said his group
would expand its protest efforts as
soon as moonpies are readily available
throughout the campus dining facili
ties.
“As soon as we get that taken care
of we’re going to move on. This cam
pus is just full of reactionary B.S. that
needs to be taken care of.”
When pressed for examples,
Woodhead said: “Well, we think the
toilet paper situation is execrable. I
mean, wno wants all that industrial
strength stuff with the woodchips still
in it? We think it’s a John Bircher plot
to undermine the fundamental
strength of the University’s student
body and contaminate our precious
bodily fluids.
“Then again, we may start pressing
for more junk foods, like Ding Dongs
or Twinkles. We don’t care. We’re
really just upset that we weren’t born
15 years earlier so we could have pro
tested against something really signi
ficant, like the Vietnam War. But,
hey, moonpies are pretty important,
too.”
