Nice guys deserve better
Banning of flags
upsets many
Recently, student housing policy put an end to many
students displaying their patriotism by flying American flags
outside their dorm windows.
A number of dorm residents have expressed their
unwillingness to submit to the dorm policy stating that
nothing can be hung outside of a TSU dorm window, yet the
administration is dete mined to enforce this policy.
Granted, the policy has been around for a long time.
Last year, a student was forced to take down a sign from his
window reading "Free Nelson Mandella."
The administration feels if acceptions are made now,
then they will be taken advantage of in the future.
At this time in our country's history when America
should be pulling together, patriotism should be supported.
An exception to a school policy over hanging an American
flag is not too much to ask.
Football player
deserves respect
Monday, the NAIA Eligibility Committee ruled in
Tarleton's favor regarding the eligibility of sophomore
offensive lineman Kevin Wayne Johnson.
i Fortunatley, this saved TSU's 10-0 Texas
Championship record and let the football team breathe a sigh
of relief. All did not escaped unharmed, however.
After allegations were made by C het Samples,
athletic director of Sul Ross State University, Johnson was
not allowed to play in any play-off games.
In addition, Johnson became ineligible for any post-
season awards like All- Conference.
Congratulations are in store for Johnson and the
Tarleton Football team as well as sympathy.

Once upon a time there was a
wi tchy woman and a whimpy man
named Erica and Howard.
It was love at first sight when
Howard first saw Erica. Her sweet
soft voice and long, wavy, auburn
hair was too much for him to resist
She was everything he had ever
wanted. Intelligent, helpful and lots
fun. What more could he ask for?
You see, Erica didn't always
seem to be a witch and Howard hadn't
always been a wimp.
But soon the rainbow turned to
a raincloud and then to a thunder-
storm. Howard withstood the
weather, however, hoping to once
pgain find the silver lining on the
cloud.
Daily fights began to break out
over a variety of seemingly innocent
incidents. A sideways glance at a
pretty girl (or ugly for that matter),
going out with his friends, talking to
a 5-ycar-long friend who happens to
be female, getting mad if his room-
mate invites a girl over or the "why
havn't you called in the past two
hours?" Erica had to know what
Howard was doing 24 hours a day.
Howard was punished for the
previous love "misdemenors" in sev-
eral ways. Erica would lash out with
a slap in the face, throw heavy home
utensils (like irons) at him, bite hunks
out of his back or cast a curse rai him.
Howard was a helpless fly en-
trapped in a web of jealousy and pas-
sion. Yet he had no desire to escape.
He put up with the incredible
bitehiness that never seemed to cease.
Howard forgot what had ever driven
him toward Erica. The moments of
happiness were now shadowed by
the oncoming fights.
Howard never left Erica and
people always wondered why, in-
cluding himself.
Erica and Howard lived unhap-
pily ever after in the world of itchi-
ness and submission.
And so ends the story of the
wiiehy woman and the whimpy man.

WHATEVER: Why do nice guys
who deserve a nice girl stay and
torment themselves with an irate
woman who treats them like doo

War tactics
questioned by
citizen
Dear Editor:
It's now war time so our
leaders in Washington now become
sacred and above questioning. But
the only thing is I am an old man
and we voter's should have been
asking questions many years before
this.
Suppose we win in Iraq.
Just what will be the over all cost?
How many people will be blinded?
How many will have to spend the
rest of their lives in hospitals and
wheel chairs? What will be the
cost of repairing the damage to Iraq,
and Kuwait?
But the U.S. has enough
energy for two thousand years so
why should we care about helping
or hurting people who are only our
competitors in the energy business?
Why can't we have a law
like New Jersey has and that is "no
one can pump his own gas." Thus
we provide jobs for people. I
think that Bush should be
impeached for getting us into that
mess in the Gulf.
Some compare Saddam to
Hitler. Well if you want to know
about Hitler, read Wall Street and
the Rise of Hitter by A. Sutton.
We need some cop? who investigate
big crimes and big criminals.
Professor Sutton seems to be the
only person who is interested in
law and punishment for big
criminals. Professor Sutton thinks
that the Nuremburg trials should
have been held in Washington and
Vew York, but someone should
have been sent to prison for all of
the black marketing and crime after
WWII.
I wonder just whose
payroll Saddam is on? I once read
that someone saw the picture of an
old man in a wheel chair (in a file
cabinet) in the Pentagon that had
the caption A. Hitler, Buenos
Aires, 1965.
Gary Allen in None Dare
Call it Conspiracy writes that
Hitler received money from the
Warbergs (a branch of the
Rothschilds), but they didn't go to
the death camps. But I wonder how
many Jews did go to the death
camps.
When I returned from my
service in WWII, I would wear my
uniform into town in Alton, II.
But for some reason Gordon
Ruebenstein didn't like me or my
uniform. He would run up to me
and cry out that I was a sucker. But
he didn't know that many people
stay in service and get a nice soft
job and work in a comfortable
office. I knew a Russian Jew in
Munich and he had six stripes. But
his boss confided in me that this
man didn't have brain. I guess that
he knew how to grease palms so he
was swiftly promoted.
No, if you have enough
money you can turn black into
white, but I believe in justice and
truth. The Germans said that the
war in Germany could have been
ended by just bombing the power
plants of Germany. But then the
stock holders in bomb and air craft
factories in the U.S. wouldn't have
made a killing.
But I am a real prophet and
one time the Lord told me that
President Carter's secretary of
defense and his ambassador to Iraq
knew something about fomenting
the war between Iraq and Iran. I
would like to know how much
U.S. tax payer money was spent to
make Iraq into a monster.
I think that President
Carter should be punished for that
and why didn't he send the Marines
in and save the people in our
embassy? Why have a Marine
corps if it's not used in an
emergency? I wonder what th;e
British intelligence services would
have to say about the six million
German Jews?
Someone has gone to a lot
of work to make an enemy out of
Germany, but the Germans are hard
working honest people for the most
part and we have good people in the
U.S who should want to know the
truth about the terrible crime that
was known as WWII.
The Catholic church or the
British intelligence service should
know the truth about WWII. The
Jews have tons of money for
advertising so it is hard to learn too
much about the Jews from the U.S.
media.
When I lived in Charlotte,
I read a book named None. Dare, Call
It Conspiracy by Gary Allen. He
wrote about an organization named
the Council on Foreign Relations
that is run by the Rockefellers.
They control the Rider Co, The
Charlotte Observer is Knight Rider
and the Myrtle Beach Sun News is
also Knight Rider so it is hard for
me to find the truth. I wish
someone would tell me
publication that tells the truth.
Sincerely,
Bill J. Bloomer
