We disagree with the obscenities you un
justifiably received, but this shows our burn
ing desire to uphold one of Texas A&M’s
long-standing traditions — one that pays re
spect for those Aggies, black or white, who
have given their lives in the defense of their
country in any war, past or future.
We believe those two men would have
asked you to remove your hat no matter
what your color. We would have done the
same.
We are personally offended that you
have no respect for those who have sacri
ficed their lives for you, while you hide be
hind the First Amendment and call this a
racial incident.
We hope your disrespectful actions are
not a representation of the entire NAACP.
The MSC is a memorial to those who
have given their lives for your freedom and
given you personally the First Amendment.
It’s hard to believe you don’t respect
someone that has died for you.
A plaque in the MSC reads: “Greater love
hath no man that this that a man lay down
for his friends.” John 15:13
This is an issue of respect, not racism.

Editor’s Note—
Tomorrow is the last day the Battalion
will print any more Betters to the Editor
concerning the Shawn Williams incident
or wearing hats in the MSC.
Howdy Ags. I’m writing regarding a sec
tion in the 1994 Aggieland. On page 383 it
states that the Texas A&M Army ROTC pro
gram “won the Mac Arthur award for being
the second most efficient and skilled pro
gram in the country.” I was hoping someone
could tell me who was first. You see, when I
had the honor of accepting the award in Ft.
Monroe, Va., the Secretary of the Army told
me that we won first place. Unfortunately, I
was really looking forward to having that
story in my senior year Aggieland, so was
everyone else in the program. Hundreds of
people worked hard to win that award. I
guess it’s too much to ask for a reprint. I
just hope that whatever monkey was in
charge of that story is replaced next year by
a new more intelligent monkey. Gig’em Ags.

And now, for the first time, you
have protection of your own.
REALITY Female Condoms
were designed to help protect you
and your partner against sexually
transmitted diseases, especially
AIDS. They also help prevent
unwanted pregnancies. When
used correctly every time in
6-month clinical trials, Reality
had a 2.6% pregnancy rate.
Over a years time, this is projected to be
a 5.1% pregnancy rate. If not used
correctly every time, the pregnancy rate
increases to between 19-25%. Find
out more about the REALITY condom
by calling your doctor, pharmacist
or 1-800-274-6601. '
If saying “no" to sex is not for you
and your partner, and he isn’t using
• male latex condoms—take a closer
look at Reality.
