The contrversy that arose last
week over some of the state-
ments made in this colitmn
pointed up one important thing.
Every student in Howard Payne
has the priviledge of having his
views printed in the Yellow
Jacket as long as he signs his
letters.
The signature on the letter
does not have to be printed in
the paper, but it must be sub-
mitted. If a question arises
about the letter, the individual
writer must be willing to take
the responsibility for its con-
tent.
Although the Yellow Jacket
may have definite editorial opin-
ions on a subject, it will not
hesitate to print letters that
disagree with that particular
view. Any letter that is written
in good taste and does not
violate the principles of Chris-
tian sportsmanship will be
printed in its entirity.
This leads to another point
The Yellow Jacket is not a
large paper and space must be
conserved; therefore, we ask
that letters not be excessively
long. The paper has a deadline
of 4:00 p.m. Monday for all
letters to be printed in the pa-
per that week.
If students take advantage of
their opportunity to have their
opinions published, they will
never have an excuse to com-
plain that their views are being
slighted.
It might be a good idea for all
students to carry this idea of
free expression of thoughts into
all phases of campus life. There
is a popular trend at Howard
Payne, as there is everywhere,
to consider the views of the
minority dangerous and subject
them to ridicule.
This is too bad, for as -an
examination of history will
point out, many times it is the
small minority who create the
improtant movements and ideas.
So before one student ridicules
another, it wouldn't be a bad
idea for him to examine both
sides of the story.
One of the purposes of the
college is to give both sidles of
a controversy opportunity to be
heard, and the Yellow Jacket
staff urges all students to take
advantage of this opportunity.
The paper is the only way to
reach all the students, and it is
an effective way of informing
the administration of current
student attitudes.
Students who are not afraid
to have their opinions published
under their name are to be com-
mended. We invite letters on
any subject, and we assure all
students that if a letter com-
plies with our few simple rules,
we will not hesitate to print it.
Number one money earner in
France, Italy and Switzerland
is the travel Industry.

minerals.
The book's 199 pages include
five chapters, an epilogue and
detailed appendix and bibliog-
raphy sections.
The newly published book
sheds light On a portion of
Texas history that was form-
erly shrouded in legend, fic-
tion and ignorance. The book
is a concise but very studied
history of Camp Colorado, a
CJ. S. military post which ex-
isted from 1856 to 1865. The
original site of the camp was
in southeastern Coleman Coun-
ty on the banks of Mukewater
Creek. The outpost was moved
several months later to a more
favorable setting on Jim Ned
Creek in the northern section
of the same county.
In the following quotation
from the preface of his book,
Dr. Havins gives a pointed
reason concerning the camp's
purposes and function:
"Camp Colorado existed for
one reason—control of Indian
intrusions. During nearly nine
years the men of the post en-
gaged in almost constant ac-
tivity against Comanche and
other tribesmen. The author
has included all known en-
counters between the soldiers
and raiding Indians. Several of
SENATE—
(Continued from Page 1)
firmed its stand on following
the Constitution to the letter
concerning grade point averages
in a closer session Monday
night, once again declared its
views in a stand taken at the
regular meeting.
President Underhill read the
statement accepting the respon-
sibility for enforcing the consti-
tion which appears in this is-
sue on page three.
The problem, which stems
from the constitutional amend-
ment passed last year requiring
a student running for office to
have a 1.5 graded point average
for the preceeding semester,
was about to be closed by the
senate when a gallery-led dis-
cussion was started by Mandy
McNeil, HPC cheerleader. Miss
McNeil requested the senate
examine its ruling and Bee if an
injustice had been committed.
After a long discussion, the
senate again reaffirmed its poli-
cy of standing by the consti-
tution.
Jim Glossbrenner, HPC jun-
ior, was approved by the senate
to fill the vacant junior senate
seat

these were momentary and of
little significance, while others
were tragically dramatic and
brutal. An attempt has been
made to include details of gar-
rison life that reveal the hard-
ships and extreme difficulties
of army men on the southwest-
ern border in the fifties and
sixties."
This outstanding narrative
work is a definite contribution
to the people and the state of
Texas. Through his endless
hours of toil and research Dr.
Havins has given a strictly ac-
curate account of a portion of
our history that otherwise might
have been forever forgotten.
