Classes Seem Old Hat A As Fall Progresses As the fall term passes, the novelty of fresh teachers, new subjects, and a different grade atmosphere wears off. By October, students are experienced hands at the tricky process of attend- ing school. Excited musicians in colorful uni- forms invaded downtown Austin as jun- ior high and high schools from all over Texas congregated in the capital city for Band Day. Frustrated band directors and Silver Spurs got the viva- cious talents into parade formation for a spectacle of color, marching demon- strations and music. Excitement died down on Congress Avenue only to erupt in Memorial Stadium forthe Longhorns' first home game. Juniors and sophomores painted smiles on their faces and combed stray locks of hair for underclass photographer Mr. G. F. Kilman. Underclassmen were rushed througha picture- taking session Oct. 19-20.
