HardlihStmmons University has an advantage unknown on such stuffy campuses of
higher learning as Rice TCU and McMurry. Of course we're modest about the little
perks we add to college life so we don't include this feature in our recruiting
brochures. Nevertheless it's time we proclaimed our good fortune since this aspect

The reason H-SU is so lucky is because most schools only have one student center.
Whan suppertime fun dies down at a place like that there's nothing to do but head to
the derm or go to the library and study. But at this institution students can go to the
RPRSHCAC (that's the short version of Rupert and Paullne...Center) and unwind.
The advantages of RPRSHCAC are multitudinous. For example students can go
over there and visit with friends they haven't seen since supper. They then can rehash
old memories while participating in intramural paper throwing contests and co-
educational loudest-whispering matches.

The only bothersome detail about this situation is that the people that work over

who persistently enjoy the activities mentioned above to leave the building. They
even claim they will have persons who refuse to leave escorted out of the building.
Just who do they think they are? This action could destroy the whole atmosphere of
the building as it exists today. Each student will only be on campus for four or five
years and in that time of his life be should be allowed to be rude and rowdy in a public
building so he'll know how not to act when he gets into the real world. Folks that can't
understand this are just too mature. They should realize students come to college to
have fun and they should erase that silly notion that students should get an education
in the proceaas.
BY LARRY HOLMES
The choice of electing a new U.S.
Senator from Texas is to be made on Nov.
7. One man who has held the office over 18
years has proven to be ineffective while
one Bob Krueger has proven to be very
effective as a Congressman.
During his IS years in office our present
Senator has voted against legislation that
guaranteed the basic American right to
vote to certain segments of our society.
While in office he has voted against
legislation that guaranteed the right of all
Americans to use public restrooms public
schools and other public accomodations.
MAYBE THE reason that our present
Senator voted against these bills is
because their passage guaranteed these
basic individual rights to Blacks and
Mexican Americans. Is it not time we
replace this Senator who plays on the
worst fears and prejudices of the people of
Texas? Bob Krueger is trying to replace
this man.
Krueger was the only Texas
Congressman besides Barbara Jordan
who spoke out on the floor for the extention
of the Civil Rights Act which guaranteed
these basic individual rights to all citizens.
Krueger has combined some very basic
philosophies on issues which ignore strict
party lines. He has consistently sought for
a balanced budget in a mature and wise
manner by seeking cuts in federal spen-
ding. He has spoken out for a strong
national defense.
CONGRESSMAN KRUEGER has
shown a strong concern for an improved
Neutron bomb purpose explained
BY MARTY BEESON
The neutron bomb is one of the most
miauartaratnnd weapons ever developed by
the Defense Department. For some reason
the impreaaion has been created that the
primary objective behind the development
af this bomb is to preserve buildings and
kffl people. It is almost as if there is
Resume seminar

fAn "affective tool" for obtaining jobs
will be explained to students in a two-
session seminar ottered by the Hardin-
Imrnons placement office according to
Mrs. Eliubeth Frost director.
Dr Roaanna Herndon head of the
toeech Communication Department at H-
SU will conduct the seminar to train
students in the construction and use of a
resume on Nov. 9 and 11 from 7 to 9 pjn. in

something magic about killing people but
not destroying property. '
Li assessing the value of the neutron
bomb one has to be clear as to what it
really to. It was not designed to preserve
buildings although in terms of possible
poet-war reparations this might be a very
positive by-product of the bomb.
THE FUNDAMENTAL reason for its
development is its ability to fight enemy
tanks. The capacity to penetrate these
enemy tanks is stronger in the neutron
bomb than it is in conventional bombs that
depend primarily on explosion. This
capacity is stronger because the neutron
bomb operates by controlled fusion which
gives off a small explosion and an abun-
dance of radiation. It to this radiation
which dissipates in a relatively short
period of time that penetrates enemy
tanks thusly knocking them out.
Deployment of this weapon was intended
for the NATO forces in Europe. It is widely
known that NATO is substantially inferior
both in manpower and numbers of con-
ventional weaponry to the Warsaw Pact
forces of the Soviet Union and her East
European satellite nations.
Designed to assume a defensive posture
NATO stands in the position of possibly not
being able to withstand a Warsaw Pact
offensive. It to a rule of thumb in military
strategy that in order to launch a suc-
cessful offensive the forces of the attacker
must be three times those of the defender.
As it now stands Warsaw Pact forces
outnumber NATO forces by seven to one.
Also it has been estimated that tbey have
20 times the artillery pieces and eight
times the number of tanks that NATO has.
The salient point of all this to that clearly
NATO to in. jeopardy and obviously needs
something to counter the threat that she to
faced with. Part of that something to the
neutron bomb. With it her position to
somewhat strengthened. Without it she
remains in a very precarious situation.
educational system. In the area of our oil
and gas industry! Krueger has shown his
expertise in outstanding fashion. He has
spoken with vigor and determination for
the deregulation of oil and gas. There are
many issues and I could list several more.
The basic question in this election
however is one of leadership. Krueger has
proven to be a capable and hard-working
Congressman. During his first term in
Congress his colleagues elected him the
most effective freshman legislator. Texas
and the nation need men in Washington
who display this type of leadership.
Felix McKnight of the Dallas Times
Herald says of Krueger "He has earned
unusual respect from Democrats and
Republicans alike for perspective thinking
on the big issues."
It to with enthusiam that I encourage
you to actively support and vote for Bob
Krueger for U.S. Senate on Nov. 7.
Reader supports
photog change
on BRONCO
To the Editor:
For four years there have been many
things take place here at Hardin-Simmons
which I have felt tempted by to use this
column. Finally I've been moved into
action by a positive change at our school.
Franklv. I am elated to receive the of-
ficial word that our BRONCO annual
staff has finally decided to change the
professional photographers which will
handle the pictures this year for the an-
nual. For years many plans have been
available which were far more economical
than the plan we had been operating under
for years.
IT WAS my bitter disappointment to
have found my picture left out of both my
freshman and junior annuals as well as the
frustration of being charged twice for the
same services by the previous
photographers. It is for these reasons and
the new offering of longer sitting hours and
color photos that I applaud the BRONCO
staff for making a change of the status quo
which is truly in the best interests of better
student services.
With one down but several more to go I
am
Sincerely
Steve Gobin
