For Rambler staffers, the week of editor elections is a time
of divided emotions. Candidates for Rambler and TXWECO
editorship must, of necessity, come from among our number.
We will be forced to choose among those'with whom we have
shared typewriters and ideas, as well as, the fun and, to be
a little melodramatic, the tears of putting out this year's
Rambler.
Realizing that it js impossible for average human beings
to work side by side Without forming some personal biases and
favoritisms which are not akin to the several abilities of the
various candidates, we do not attempt to advocate one can-
didate above another.
We do, however, urge you, as TWC student readers, to
study the qualifications of these candidates and to vote ac-
cordingly.
This is perhaps one of the most important campus elec-
tions because you will be selecting the persons who will-be
responsible for the make-up and content of the Rambler and
TXWECO.
Keep in mind the importance of the college newspaper as
a former 'of public opinion, concerning the. school, both on
and off campefs. No less important is the TXWECO. Aflhough
college annuals are a once a year publication, they are the
memory books which may some day be passed on to our
children and grandchildren. Think ahead but vote NOW.

New that the "big" election on campus is pver, and all
the controversies are-seemingly pushed aside, TWC students
can once again sit down, take a long rest, and become a
lackadaisical body.
In the recent student polf" of
the Project '64 Questionnaire, the
following opinions of Texas Wes-
leyan College students concerning,
various phases of campus life
were noted. This effort was de-
signed in the hope that necfessary
changes for dead week and exami-
nation week can be realized and
accomplished in the immediate
future. Through co-operation of
.students and faculty, an effective
meaningful exam program
can be realized.
Two hundred and eighty-three
questionnaires were evaluated by
the committee.
In answer to the question, "Did
you have tests during dead week?"
51% replied yes. Of these 51%:
44% had tests in the Division of

With tfte fabled city of .Paris
acting as the third star, Paris
When It Sizzles brings William
Holden and Audrey Hepburn to- „
gather for the first time since their
legendary encounter in Sabrina.
Paris When It Sizzles in color
and opening tomorrow at the
Worth Theatre, is a gay romantic
comedy set against a potpourri of
exciting and bizarre Parisian set-
tings. Most of the comedy wa£
filmed outdoors in the streets, side-
walks cafes and parks of Paris,
with the indoor scenes being film-
ed at the Studios de Boulogne.
William Holden plays a beleagur-
ed Hollywood scenarist in Paris,
desperately jtp/ing to concoct a
story he has sold . . . but never
written. He is the "world's great-
est scriptwriter," DUt he is broke.
It is imperative- that he write the
-Story in order to maintain his
reputation and hvis grandiose style
of living. "'
He has three days to write the
screenplay so he hires an intelli-
gent and spritely secretary, played
l^y Audrey Hepburn, to assist him.
And with the big Hollywodd movie
moguls constantly harrassing them,
the couple set to work on the
script whose plot and story liihe
they improvise as they go along.

This of course is not true. Now, more than ever, TWC
students should stay involved and keep interested in what's
taking place on campus. Students should still question matters 27

electictfl doesn't mean that a student's cause is totally lost. It
merely means that he will have to stand up even longer and
stronger for what he believes in. Every individual has the
right to think as he-pleases and to expres? what he thinks;
this is a basic foundation of the American way. Therefore, let
us, as individuals, keep thinking as we please and expressing
that which we think, for only then can we keep the campus
alive and accomplish feats never before done.
