There’s more than fabric superiority in Gant, in addi-
tion, "needled-into the ways and woof of every Gant
shirt” — there’s flair-fit-show — three vital inher-
ents that make all the difference when a man wears
a Gant.
We chose Gant because they take shirt making seri-
ously. They’re hard to please (like we are) when it
comes to fit of collar, its roll, its profile—how much
it shows above the suit collar. They’re fastidious
about the way the body of the shirt drapes and folds.
All must integrate to achieve that viable ingredient
which gives comfort and aplomb. In substance, Gant
shirts are keyed to the discerning tastes of well
groomed men who appreciate quality. These men are
our customers.
The cost of the tour is $100. This
includes the flight, meals and a
hotel room—all first class. Not
included in the fee are meals tak-
en elsewhere than at designated
places, side trips, and other ex-
penses, such as laundry.

Brown-Holtzman Survey of Study
Habits and Attitudes were then
handed out to those present. This
survey will serve as both a foun-
dation for self-improvement to
all freshmen who are willing to
answer the 75 questions asked,
and as a guide for the counselors
themselves. The incorporation of
occupational counseling into the
program was suggested by Father
Kadzielawski. Another suggestion
was a trip to Southwest Texas
to study a student-counselor pro-

tours, sponsored by the National

For about 12 years now, the di-
vision of physical and biological
sciences at St. Edward’s has been
offering a special course in under-
graduate research to select upper-
classmen majoring in biology,
who have a B average or better.
And, for about 12 years now, this
course has been struggling along
with limited financial support
from part of the biology depart-
ment’s limited budget.

research with soil and plant dis-

St. Edward’s campus. He is trying
to show that a relationship exists
between former ant hills and

bushes. Mike is also studying two

The National Science founda-
tion—‘the rich, friendly uncle’ of
science for colleges and universi-
ties throughout the country—has
helped this fund-starved course
(Biology 49) for the 1964-1965
academic year. The NSF has
given a grant of $4,900 to support
undergraduate research in biology
at St. Edward’s. The money is to
be used to buy equipment and
supplies which the undergraduate
will need in his experiments and
to provide the undergraduate i
College seniors or graduate
students can fulfill their military
obligation as officers in the US
Coast Guard, the active peace-
time service. Qualified applicants
will be notified of selection for
officer candidate school before
they enlist.
The classes convene in Septem-
ber and February at the Coast
Guard Reserve training center
in historic Yorktown, Virginia.
The carefully selected college
graduates receive 17 weeks of in-
tensive, highly specialized train-
ing. Successful applicants are
tendered commissions as ensigns
and serve on active duty for three
years.
TROUSERED BY CORBIN
_I80-
The director of undergraduate
research in biology, Brother
Joseph Cain, is very enthusiastic
about the value of research as a
learning method. “On the upper-
classman level,” Brother Joseph
feels, “students ought to be in-
troduced to the technique of re-
search.” With the financial help
of the National Science founda-
tion, the undergraduate now has
a better opportunity to do bio-
logical research.

date school, write: Commandant

quarters, 1300 “E” Street, NW,
Washington, DC, 20226.
Bill McCumbee is looking for
the fertility and sex ratios in
mice. This project involves the
use of various types of hormones
to alter fertility patterns. Bill will
be working atop the Science
building with a colony of five
dozen mice. Bill’s advisor in this
project is Mr. Julius Kroschew-
sky.
Coast Guard officers are paid
at the same rate as officers of
other branches of the Armed
Forces and receive the same
benefits. These include 30 days of
annual leave as walll as free
medical and dental pare. They
also have an opportunity to
qualify for flight training. Peace-
time duties of the Coast Guard
include" law enforcement, search
and rescue, oceanographic re-
search, ocean station patrols, and
the maintenance of many types
of aids to navigation.

at 318 Andre by February 1. How-
ever, he noted that the sooner he
received the names, the better.
The second tour is the Ber-
muda Holiday, which will take
place April 18-25. Activities plan-
ned for this trip include sailing,
fishing, dancing, tennis, golf, and
bathing on the famous “pink
beaches.” Transportation will be
via Boeing 707 turbo-prop or
DC8, tourist class. The cost of
this tour will be $160.
The third tour, Summer in Eu-
rope, will cost from $479-$747.
Three different tours are avail-
able, one lasting 33 days, another
42, and the longest, 47. The first
two tours will cover ten countries,
the last, 13. England, Germany,
Italy, France, Switzerland, Hol-
land, Belgium, and Austria are
among the countries that will be
visited. Flights will leave New
York city June 18, 22, 24, and 29.
Parents and dependents of
NFCCS members may take ad-
vantage of these low-cost flights.
Hardin noted that the idea of
tours is an old one with NFCCS.
In the past, the organization has
sponsored tours of Europe. This
year, the tours of Bermuda and
Mexico have been added. The
Mexico trip is strictly for Texas
region schools and is a money-
making project for the region.
According to Dave Hardin, cam-
pus NFCCS travel representative,
the Mexico Tour is undoubtedly
the most convenient for St. Ed-
ward’s students. Held in conjunc-
tion with three other Texas region
NFCCS schools, the tour will con-
sist of a six-day tour of Mexico
City. A side trip to Acapulco is
also available for a slight fee. The
three other schools to be repre-
sented are Our Lady of the Lake
college and Incarnate Word col-
lege, both of San Antonio, and St.
Thomas university of Houston.
Students from the four univer-
sities will assemble in San An-
tonio on Holy Thursday. They
will then fly first class to Mexico
City on a charter flight. For the
next six days, the group will be
given the grand tour of Mexico’s
capital. Bull fights, a night at the
symphony, and a visit to the
Mexico City cathedral are among
the highlights of the tour. For a
slight extra fee, students may
spend two of their days at Aca-
pulco.
Members of the newly organ-
ized student counseling program
met last Monday night. The pur-
pose of the meeting was the
evaluation of the recently estab-
lished program of counseling for
freshmen by upperclassmen, and
the planning of strategy for next
month’s program.
Father Kadzielawski, director
of guidance and counseling, led
a discussion of the progress, prob-
lems and possibilities of the stu-
dent-counselor program. The gen-
eral feeling of the group of stu-
dent counselors was that fresh-
men seemed to be interested in
the counseling program but, for
the most part, were failing to take
advantage of it.
Father Kadzielawski intro-
duced a few projects and asked

major.
