Await Announcement
“BUT WHEN do I get to go
in, Coach?” Attractive bas-
ketball fan, Miss Shirley
Jean Schilz, freshman art
major, seems peeved at eager
Coach Don Haskin’s failure
to recognize her true poten-
tial—as a basketball player,
that is. One thing is certain,
though. If and when she gets
on the court, she’ll throw the
opposing team for a loop
with those curves of hers.
Student Senate Plans
To Publish Journal
Girls Added Soon To The
Miner Basketball Squad?
Psi Chi, national honorary psy-
chology society, will meet this
Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. in LA 122.
All persons interested in psy-
chology are invited to attend.
There will be a guest speaker
and film shown.
The annual TWC Sing-Song
will be held next Tuesday, at 8
p.m. in Magoffin Auditorium.
The competition among enter-
ed Campus organizations will be
in four divisions—sorority divi-
sion, fraternity division, inde-
pendent division, and ensemble
division. There will be one win-
ner in each division.
Judging is based solely on the
vocal presentation of the groups,
with no regard for accompani-
ment and props, and is done by
several individuals from the
community who are well-versed
in music and its formal presenta-
tion.
Sing-Song is free to all TWC
students and the public. The
program each year is sponsored
by the TWC Student Association
and this year is being coordinat-
ed by Jan Lieberman.
The Student Senate will begin •
publishing a journal, entitled The
Senate Journal, at the end of
this month. A bill resolving that

a permanent publication of the
Student Senate be created was
voted on and passed by the mem-
bers of the Senate last week.
The Senate Journal will be
published monthly and will be ed-
ited by Sam Simon, president-pro
tempore of the Student Senate.
“Its contents shall consist of at-
tendance of Senators at senate
meetings and committee meet-
ings,” Sam said, “and it will
state how each Senator voted on
a roll call vote. It will also num-
erate the bills and resolutions
discussed and try to get the gist
of opinion of the Senators on
each bill.” It will also contain
other information pertinent to
the Senate.
The Senate Journal will be
available to senate members and
selected people who are on the
mailing list.

„ resulted in his being sent in. At
I that instant, there’s not a man
i present who could play that po-
s sition as well as he can. If there
I is, he's got to be on the other
J team, and Don can’t be expected
to do too much about that.
Except defend; and defense is
one of the trademarks of basket-
I ball played Haskin’s style. The
- Miners, when they’re playing
well, seem to resent the mere
presence of another team. They
don’t let the opponent use the
ball, and if, by chance, some
petty larcenist should steal it,
they repossess before he’s hit
mid-court.
Karen Jones was elected Sweet-
heart of the Pershing Rifle “Hell
Company” after an introduction
to the members on October 6.
Miss Jones came to Texas
Western in 1963 from Muleshoe,
Texas. She is active in the Haw-
thorne House Dorm Council and
was freshman president in the
dorm last year. She is also ac-
tive in the Student Senate, Spurs,
the Student Education Associa-
tion and Forensics.
She is a member of Delta Delta
Delta sorority and is the fifth
Tri-Delt to become Pershing Ri-
fle Sweetheart.
Miss Jones headed the newly
organized TWC ROTC Sponsor
Corps as temporary president
and is now the Executive Offi-
cer (vice-president).
Holding a top spot on the
Dean’s list, she is seen regularly
at the Student Leadership Con-
ference each semester. She was
a finalist in the TWC Beauty
Contest.
Watching from one to eight |
wreckers at work in the park- =
ing lots and streets of the Cam- |
pus this week, towing away il- =
legally parked cars scared more |
that one Texas Western student |
who was parked in an entrance, E
exit or fire lane.
“This fear,” Campus Chief of
Police William Jones said this
week, “will soon be replaced by
the lack of it as students realize
that police can and will enforce
parking regulations and those sh
careless students quit violating
these rules.”
At press time, 19 cars had been
towed off the Campus.
Chief Jones said that he didn’t
like to have cars towed away be-
cause the Parking Fund gets
nothing from those violators, but
that when students complain of
being blocked in, there is noth-
ing else he can do. If the Po-
lice themselves move the cars,
they are personally libel to any
damages occuring to a car being
moved.
“This parking fund,” Chief
Jones said, “is not something we
(Campus Policemen) benefit
from; the fund is used to im-
prove parking facilities on the
Campus.
“Last summer, for instance,
the fund paid for the surfacing
of all the lots around the en-
gineering and music buildings.
The fund comes from registra-
tion fees and any of these we
don’t get hurts not us but the
entire student body which does
now or will in the future park
on Campus lots.”
He explained that when a car
is towed away, direct summons
and registrative powers are taken
away from the Police, and so
they lose, not profit from the
towing.
“Legally registered students
seem to be complaining the
most,” he explained, “but they
are the ones who are hurt most
by the violation of the parking
regulation. They are complain-

Bobby Dobbs, former Tulsa
head coach and now a coach
in the Canadian Football
League, was in town this
week and was being consi-
dered for the head coaching
position at Texas Western.
“The man is here being
considered for the position,”
President Ray said. “The
names of some 20 other can-
didates have been consider-
ed but Mr. Dobbs is the only
candidate so far who has
been interviewed by the ath-
letic council. There are at
present no further specific
interviews of candidates
scheduled by the athletic
council.”
There is strong speculation
that an announcement con-
cerning the head coach post
will come either this after-
noon or tomorrow morning.
$250Taken
I From SA
E
Cash Box
Joe Stewart, TWC Intramural
Director, announced that $250 has
been stolen from the Student Ac-
tivities office. The money was
the box office change and ticket
receipts from the musical review,
"A Splash of Bitters,” staged by
the drama department in the
SUB.
The theft took place either late
last Thursday night, or early Fri-
day morning. The money was
locked in a combination box.
However, so many people knew
the combination of the box and
that the money was in it, that
there is not much to go on.
Mr. Stewart said that a full
police investigation is being con-
ducted and every attempt is be-
ing made to catch those respon-
sible for the theft.
“I feel sick about the whole
matter,” said Mr. Stewart. “The
fact that the money was stolen
from this office will hamper any
future efforts to have another
production from the drama de-
partment in the SUB.
William P. Jones, chief of Cam-
pus Police, said, “I didn’t know
they were going to leave the
money in the building, or we’d
have taken better care of it.”
