Campus Chest Drive Looks On Road Toward Success

Another Campus Chest drive was kicked-off Monday and it was encouraging- to see three campus organizations immediately reach or pass the campus-wide goal of $1 per student.

We feel sure even more groups have reached their own goals by now, with the bulk of reports still to come later in the week.

M o n d a^y the First Brigade and First Battle Group r*"7 staffs in the Corps of Cadets turned in 100 per cent donations,Then the Civilian Student Council announced that each of its members had donated $1.50.

These amounts, plus money collected from tubs at the two Kyle Field football games, have placed the Chest in good position to reach its $8,000 goal. •

And reports have yet to be received from corps units or civilian dormitories. In the past the bulk collections has come from these sources.

Most encouraging to us was the 150 per cent CSC con­tribution. We hope this shows that the drive will receivemore support than ever from civilians. Ever since elections r. ’ " ~ Jlast spring civilian interest in campus activities has been 1 on the increase, and in no other place would a continued up­surge be more pleasantly felt. And without almost unanimous civilian support, the drive has no hope of even nearing its goal. Corps contributions, the main brunt'of past drives, shouldn’t really be expected to carry over 50 per cent of the final total.

Without a doubt, the drive is off to a good start. But now is not the time to sit back and reflect on its apparent success. Campaign workers will devote almost all their spare time this week on the job—the least each individual student can do is see that his contribution, no matter how small or large, is counted in the final goal. This will assure success.

Sound Off-Editor,The Battalion:

While at Baylor for the game Saturday, we noticed in their school paper, the Baylor Lariat, the usual articles deriding our spirit. Among them was one en­titled, “Aggies Are Never Beaten, But They Do Get Outscored.” We would like to quote a few state­ments from that article that should be of interest to every real Aggie.

“There are lots of guys want­ing to go,” said fish Larry Mar­tin. “It seems like it will be a very interesting game. I don’t kjiow exactly why everyone wants to go—-maybe it’s because Waco

is so close. I don’t really know who will win, but if I were talk­ing to an upperclassman, I’d say A&M.”

As junior Dwain Bryant said, “There’s always the possibility that A&M might lose. Most of the guys are really disgusted with the team and don’t think they can do anything. We thought they might beat the University of Houston, but they blew it.”

Statements such as these are enough to make a real Aggie fighting mad. We’ve stuck with our team through three years of good times and badi They need our support, and we have a duty to make them know that we’re

★ ★ ★Editor,The Battalion:

The Aggie Campus Chest drive has begun this week and it’s time for us to start digging down into our pockets for contribu­tions.

I am addressing primarily the civilian students here at A&M, who in the past have been repre­sented by a very unimpressive portion of our school’s total con­tributions. After having talked with the dormitory presidents I know that they, along with their dormitory councils, will give this collection drive, their full effort.

Every student will be contacted by a representative from his housing unit. The rest is up to us students. No one can say this isn’t a worthy cause we’re being- asked to contribute to; over two- thirds of the fund remains on our campus for the benefit of us stu­dents.

Let’s all give a dollar in sup­port of this drive; it’s a sound investment. It might prove to help you during a time of need this next year, and it will surely help out some fellow-Aggie.

Keep your eye on the .bar- graph in the MSC and let’s make

it grow. After all, what’s just “a dollar from an Aggie?”

EAT, SLEEP, AND MATRICULATE

The trouble with early morning classes is that you’re too sleepy, At late morning classes you’re too hungry. At early afternoon classes you’re too logy. At late afternoon classes you're too hungry again. The fact is—and we might as well face it-there is no good time of day to take a class.

What shall we do then? Abandon our colleges to the ivy? I say no! I say America did not become the hope of mankind and the world’s largest producer of butterfats and tallow by running away from a fight!

If you’re always too hungry or too sleepy for class, then let's hold classes when you’re not too hungry or sleepy: namely, when you’re eating or sleeping.

Classes while eating are a simple matter. Just have a lecturer lecture while the eaters eat. But watch out for noisy food, I mean who can hear a lecturer lecture when everybody is crunch­ing celery or matzo or like that? Serve quiet stuff—like anchovy paste on a doughnut, or steaming bowls of lamb fat.

And kindly observe silence while lighting your post-prandial Marlboro Cigarette. Don’t be striking kitchen matches on your

jeans. Instead carry an ember from the dormitory fireplace in your purse or pocket. Place the Marlboro, against the ember. Light it quietly. Smoke it quietly. Oh, I know I ask a great deal! I know that one’s natural instinct upon encountering Marlboro’s fine flavor and filter is to throw' back one’s head and bellow great, rousing cries of joy. But you must not. You must contain your ecstacy, lest you disturb the lecturing lecturer, You ’can, if you like, permit yourself a few' small shudders of pleasure as you smoke, but take care not to wear garments which will set up a clatter when you shudder—like taffeta, for example, or knee cymbals.

Let us turn now to the problem of learning while sleeping, First, can it be done?

'Yes, it can. Psychologists have proved that the brain is definitely able to assimilate information during sleep. Take, for instance, a recent experiment conducted by a leading Eastern university (Stanford). A small tape recorder wms placed under the pillow of the subject, a freshman named Glebe Sigafoos. When Glebe was fast asleep, the recorder was turned on. Softly, all through the night, it repeated three statements in Glebe's slumbering ear:

1. Herbert Spencer lived to the age of 109 and is called “The Founder of English Eclectic Philosophy.”

2. The banana plant is not a tree but a large perennial herb-3. The Archduke Ferdinand was assassinated in 1914 at

Sarajevo by a young nationalist named Mjilas Cvetnic, whohas been called “The Trigger of World War I.”

When Glebe awroke in the morning, the psychologists said to him, “Herbert Spencer lived to the age of 109. What is he called?’!

Glebe promptly replied, “Perennial Herb.”Next they asked him, “What has Mjilas Cvetnic been called?’1Replied Glebe, “Perennial Serb.”Finally they said, “Is the banana plant a tree?”But Glebe, exhausted from the long interrogation, had fallen

back asleep, where he is to this day. © waa mksw**
