O. Walton, LL. D. UTS IDE the family circle, there are no human relationships where opportunity is offered to form more loyal or truer friendships than those of College life. There¬ fore, the man is fortunate who chooses an institution for his undergraduate work where his associates are men of the highest ideals and noblest impulses. Four years associa¬ tion with any group will inevitably leave a deep impression upon one. Raleigh said: “There is nothing more becoming any wise man than to make choice of friends, for by them thou shalt be judged as thou art; let them therefore be wise and virtuous and none of those that follow thee for gain; but make selection rather of thy betters than thy in¬ feriors, shunning always such as are false to themselves, for it follows they will be false to others.” With respect to your associates, the members of the present senior class aie to be congratulated. Of the many excellent classes graduated by the College, few if indeed any have been superior to the men who will finish their four years’ College work this June. It is a class with a purpose. Their purpose has been to make the best of individual oppor¬ tunities, to make some permanent contribution to the welfare of their fellow students, to maintain the best in the history and traditions of Aggieland, to build up here upon the foundations already so securely laid, an institution of learning worthy in all respects and capable in all particulars to function efficiently in the lives of men. Your faculty rejoice in your accomplishments. We confidently expect that you will make good as you go out to take your places in the world of men. Wherever you go, or whatever you may turn your efforts and talents to, we shall follow you with an ever increasing interest, sharing with you just pride in your accomplishments. T. 0.

ITT is through the office of the Commandant of Cadets that the discipline of the College aL is administered. It is the Commandant who is responsible for the enforcement of the rules and regulations adopted, for the general conduct of the student body, by the faculty of the College. The Office of the Commandant keeps records of the conduct of each student, the number of demerits that he has amassed by various means, and his general attitude. From these records, and from the reports of the Senior Officers of each Company, the annual promotion list is made. Therefore, it behooves the student to keep his record with the Commandant clear. It is by application to the Commandant that authorized leaves of absence are ob¬ tained. It is his office that excuses boys from classes and formations because of illness. In fact, the Commandant has a very marked influence on the life and conduc t of each student of the College. The Commandant can, by delegation of authority to responsible students in the Corps of Cadets, develop leadership in those boys, and a respect for constituted authority in those under their authority. It is such training as this that develops the best Reserve Officers, which is the primary purpose of the Corps of Cadets. Page 23 b . -Ml Dean Charles Puryear, M. A., C. E., LL. D. A FACTOR of increasing importance in the status of A. and M. College is the Gradu- -lxl. ate School, which, under the organization of 1924, has its own faculty and dean. Students are enrolled who are graduates of many colleges and universities, for the pre¬ requisite is a degree from an approved institution in which the student must have made a high record in his undergraduate work. The Graduate School confers the degree of Master of Science in Agricultural Ad¬ ministration, Agricultural Education, Agricultural Engineering, Agriculture, Archi¬ tecture, Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Veterinary Medicine, and Industrial Education. Professional degrees in engineering—Chemical Engineer, Civil Engineer, Electrical Engineer, Mechanical Engineer—are offered on the basis of acceptable professional experience, a thesis, and an examination. Dean Puryear also acts as the Dean of the College and as head of the Department of Mathematics. Probably many of the class will remember him for his now famous sente ' nce, “Put it in writing,” but all will confess that he judges with impartiality and with fairness. The mere fact that he has long been called, among the students, of course, by a nickname, is proof of the high esteem in which he is held. We shall all remember him for the calm, immaculate gentleman that he is. O ACK in the early seventies of the past century, an agricultural school was nothing, more or less, than a farm. Although there were some classes, they were of a classical nature. There was no technical literature pertaining to the study of agriculture, or its kindred subjects. Now, in the School of Agriculture, are found the following departments: Agricultural Economics Agricultural Engineering, Agronomy, Animal Husbandry, Dairy Husbandry, Entomology’ Forestry, Genetics, Horticulture, and Poultry Husbandry. Students have their choice of the following four-year courses: Agriculture, Agricultural Engineering, and Landscape Art. A non-collegiate two-year course in Agriculture is also offered. It has been only a comparatively short while since agriculture had no appeal as a profession. In fact, so recent has been its recognition, that few people consider it as such. Consider the man who has attended college four years, and who has studied highly technical subjects to prepare himself for the life and work of a farmer, rancher, teacher, county-agent, governmental agri¬ cultural specialist, agricultural research worker, or even as a banker or merchant in an agricul¬ tural district. He is as much a member of a profession as the physician, lawyer, or engineer- The time is fast approaching when as much dignity and prestige will surround his profession as surrounds those just mentioned. Many a farm boy has come to college to study agriculture, thinking that, because of the fact that the farm was all he knew, he would have an easy time. He has been completely dis¬ illusioned, and made to feel the depths of his ignorance, by the time he has completed his course of study. Because of the fact that he is made to realize his shortcomings, and is encouraged to increase his knowledge of the vital subjects, he is made a much more contented and useful citizen than he would have been otherwise. It is interesting to note that the graduates in agriculture are more likely to remain in Texas than those of some of the other schools, for they have their widest field of opportunity here. Texas needs them, recognizes the need, and is willing to pay for their services. Tl IP ' HE School of Arts and Sciences embraces the following departments of the College: Biology, Chemistry, Economics, English, Geology, History, Mathematics, Military Science, Modern Languages, Physical Education, and Physics. The School of Arts and Sciences is the one school with which every student comes in contact. The subjects offered are the basic ones for every course approved by the faculty. Then, to those whose temperaments require cultural study, as well as their specialized studies, this school is the one to which they must go. Not only do all of the students spend some of their time in this school, but it is also here that some of the students spend all of their time. The four-year course in Science is intended for those interested in biology, chemistry, geology, or physics. Then, there is a four-year course in Liberal Arts that is offered for the benefit of those students who wish the more cultural subjects. It is of interest to note that the enrollment in this school is steadily increasing, which is evidence of its increasing value in the organization of the college. Page 2 b I A3 .V. ' m v - THE SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING Dean F. C. Bolton, B. S. f ' TT ' HE lad who comes to college to study engineering because he has seen a brawny -W- fellow looking thru a three-legged instrument at a striped rod, meanwhile waving his arms to and fro, and who thinks that he would like to be such, is due for a very sad dis¬ illusionment, for he can’t foresee the many hours of “boning” over math, drawing, and all the multitude of widely varied subjects which he must study before his ambition can be realized. Probably that same lad did not realize that, in the School of En¬ gineering at the A. and M. College of Texas, the following departments arc included: Chemical, Civil, Electrical, Mechanical, Textile, Municipal, and Sanitary Engineering, and Architecture and Drawing. Four-year courses are offered in all these departments, with the exception of the Department of Drawing, which serves the others equally. A two-year course is also given in the Textile Engineering Department, which is really a specialization study of cotton classing and marketing. As one man has said, “There are engineers and ENGINEERS.” It is the latter that the School of Engineering endeavors to develop in its classes of theory and practice. The real size of the letters in the word, “ENGINEER,” that a graduate writes after his name ten years hence, will depend upon his own ability, but it is certain that if he has graduated, he knows the fundamentals reasonably well. Perhaps the best way of stating the aim of the School of Engineering is to define the word “engineer” in terms of the ideal toward which sincere engineers strive. “An engineer is an honest, dependable, highly technical man of discerning judgment, and who possesses common sense, a knowledge of hurran nature, and a sense of human values.” 3BK • Page 27 THE SCHOOL OF VETERINARY MEDICINE 1TN this day of the horseless carriage, it might appear, at first glance, that the day of the veterinarians is past. But the School of Veterinary Medicine was established at the A. and M. College of Texas for the purpose of rendering protection to the live stock of the state. At the present time, the value of the live stock of the state is many times greater than it was at the time that the school was established, so that, economically at least, there is a greater need for men trained in this line of work than ever before. Although the idealists insist that money should not be the aim of men, the fact remains that money, because of that which money brings, is very, very desirable to all but an infinitesimal part of the population of the world, and that anything that speaks favorably for itself in terms of dollars and cents has justified its existence, provided that it has not caused anyone undue suffering. It is because of a judgment according to this stand ard that graduates of this school, who have studied Veterinary Anatomy, Medicine and Surgery, Pathology, Physiology, and Pharmacology, are eligible for ap¬ pointments in the U. S. Army, in the Bureau of Animal Husbandry, and as veterinarians in the State Live Stock Commission and in City Boards of Health. Perhaps it is permissible to state, in passing, that the graduates of this school enjoy a distinction that is theirs alone in A. and M. College, in that they are called “Doctor” by virtue of their degrees, and in that they are truly members of an old and dignified profession. THE SCHOOL OF VOCATIO NAL TEACHING i M -1 fS} | Dean C. H. Winkler, Ph. D. V JO Y co-operating with other divisions of the College, the School of Vocational Teaching -u-J ' strives to fully prepare boys as teachers for the schools of Texas. It is the school in which the professional subjects are taught that prepare a man for the teaching profes¬ sion. In the School of Vocational Teaching, as in the other professional schools of the College, there is a certain amount of practice work as well as theory. The Training School, located on the campus, and with an enrollment of about three hundred and fifty pupils, is used as the laboratory. In fayt, one might well say that the policy and organi¬ zation of the entire College is built around the axiom, “Students learn best by doing.” The graduates in Agricultural and Industrial Education meet all the requirements of the State and Federal Boards for Vocational Teaching to teach vocational agriculture and the trades under the Smith-Hughes Act. Through the work of graduates in the Smith-Hughes Schools, the sphere of influence of the College is rapidly being widened. K- Special courses are also offered for teachers, principals and superintendents of public schools in the Department of Rural Education, in which a student may qualify (1) for a “four-year elementary school certificate,” upon completion of one year of college work, (2) for a “four-year high school certificate,” upon the completion of two years of college work, and (3) for a “permanent high school certificate,” upon completion of four years of college work. Page 29 mmmmmwm f OINCE it is only through broad and intelligent reading, and through the thought stimu¬ li- ' lated by this reading, that a student can become really educated, the College Library plays no small part in the life of the more serious students. Because of the fact that A. and M. is a technical school, there must be a sound and well balanced collection of technical books. However, there are many boys who desire to broaden their vision by reading the best of literature, and it is the purpose of the library to satisfy the wants of these boys by keeping available a large collection of liberalizing books—novels, plays, and non-technical works on natural science, social questions, philosophy, and psychology such as will help them to construct a sane and satisfying theory of life. The students of A. and M. College do a large amount of “outside reading’’ on sub¬ jects wholly unconnected with their particular courses of study, but which serves to make them more thoughtful and stable citizens than they could possibly be without it. This fact is proved by a comparison of statistics from this and other technical schools over the country. It is also true that the proportion of students doing such reading is grow¬ ing. V It is to be hoped that the library will soon be able to move from its present cramped quarters, where much expansion is impossible, for, as its collection of books is increased, so will its sphere of usefulness be widened. Page 30 f) ir HE Agricultural Research Division of the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas is The Texas Agricultural Experiment Station System, and was established in 1886. It is a distinct division of the College, and is so organized that it is directly under the authority of the Board of Directors and the President. It is unique in that it also serves, not only the teaching and extension divisions of the College, but every agency within the borders of the state, engaged in the dissemination of agricultural information. The present organization of the System permits the use of its data, records, and laboratories by graduate students who are specializing in the field of Agriculture. Its organization consists of seventeen divisions, each charged with a definite line of scientific investigations. There are six field laboratories and fifteen substations located in the principal agricultural regions of the state. The Texas Agricultural Experiment Station System introduces and adapts field crops to various parts of the state, and it experiments with livestock as well. The dairy on the experiment farm near the College is a model, both in its equipment and in the type of milch cows kept. On this same farm are kept breeds of all other livestock that are suited to Texas. Here are pens of various strains of poultry, and so accurate are the records that the men in charge can tell a questioner without delay, which strain is best adaptable to a specific purpose, and he is able to prove his statement with scientifically collected and recorded data. In view of the fact that The Texas Agricultural Experiment Station System has made itself widely known and respected over the State, and because it is the Agricultural Research Division of the College, it plays no small part in the organization of the College. It is one of the integral parts of the machinery of the A. and M. College of Texas. Page 31 4C 1—? I hr- 1 ■ f Extension Service is one of the major divisions of the College, and its purpose is to form, a contact with and, in a measure, to direct the life in the agricultural sec¬ tions of the State. The Extension Service directs the activities of the county farm agents and the home demonstration agents. The value of this service is evidenced by the fact that it has steadily grown since its inauguration. The Director has charge of the entire organization and represents the College in its co-operative relationship in Extension Work with the United States Department of Agriculture. The county agent must be a specially trained man with the qualities of a salesman, for it is very difficult to sell new ideas to the people. He must have qualified himself for his work with scientific study of the particular problems met with in the locality to which he is sent, and he must also possess such an open mind that he can recognize the value of the practical experience of the people with whom he comes in contact. He must be able to organize and to direct, without being officious, in such a way that he can secure co-operation. In short, he must be a technically trained leader. The student who has best developed his latent qualities of leadership succeeds best in the Extension Service. And, because of the fact that the county agent must understand scientific problems, he is usually a college graduate. The result is, that the Extension Service of the A. and M. College of Texas employs many of the graduates of the School of Agri¬ culture of the College. ij A v£aDB= r 1TN VIEW of the fact that there are major divisions of the College concerned with the collection J-L and dissemination of knowledge concerning agriculture, one of the major industries of Texas, it is only reasonable to suppose that a major division should be employed in the work of a Forest Service, for East Texas is vitally concerned with its forests. The State Forestry activities were initiated by an act of the Thirty-fourth Legislature. In accordance with the law, the Director has supervision over all forest interests, and matters pertaining to forestry within the jurisdiction of the State. He is charged with the duty of enforc¬ ing all laws pertaining to the protection of forests and woodlands, preventing and extinguishing forest kres, collecting data relative to forest conditions, and co-operating with counties, towns, corporations, and individuals in preparing plans for the protection, management, and replace¬ ment of trees, wood lots, and timber tracts. The Board of Directors of the College has the power to purchase tracts of land in the name of the State, designated as State Forests, chiefly for the purpose of protecting the timber. By its administration of these tracts, the Texas Forest Service endeavors to prove to those in the lumber business that reforestation, and the application, in a practical way, of theoretical ideas of forest preservation, will be economically profitable. For the supervision and direction of this and the other phrases of its work, the Texas Forest Service maintains a personnel comprised of five technical foresters and forty-four field men. Page 33 1 ; —j V. ' 3 n ? IIJ ' VERY large business must have its financial and accounting division. A. and M. College is no exception, and the Fiscal Department was organized to satisfy that need. The department comprises a complete accounting system, a purchasing division, and a division to accommodate the students by allowing them to deposit and to draw their funds on the same basis as with regular banking institutions. The accounting and purchasing divisions of the Fiscal Department have so stabilized the financial status of the College that it is enabled to carry on all its negotiations on a cash basis. By the use of this system, the likelihood of the misuse of any funds is re¬ duced to a minimum. While the authority of an uninterested official may cramp the movements of some of the minor officials in the administration of their particular depart¬ ments, it has been conclusively proved by the experience of this, and other large institu¬ tions, that an organization, similar t o the Fiscal Department, is an absolute necessity. The convenience of the depositing and checking division of the department to the student body is obvious. In fact, it has grown to such proportions that the time of two men is required for it. The attendance has so grown in the last few years, and the con¬ fidence in the Fiscal Department has been so strengthened, that the deposits have grown from approximately seven hundred thousand dollars in the year of its inaugura¬ tion, 1914, to nearly three million dollars per year at the present time. .9 7 SENIORS SENIOR CLASS R.

M mm HISTORY OF THE SENIOR CLASS npHE night was dark and stormy. The rain had been falling for hours and was standing in Jh puddles of various sizes and depths. A passenger train came rolling into College Station and disgorged a myriad of passengers, all masculine. Some had been at A. and M. before, the majority had not. The newcomers were taken under the wing of the night sergeant and put in temporary quarters in Goodwin Hall. Our group swelled in numbers during the following days until nine hundred were gathered together, and we were known as fish. Those first days during the middle of September, 1923, were real laborious days. Trunks and furniture had to be carried from one end of the campus to the other. The nights were wild and full of trials for the freshman, for it was then that we learned the A. and M. song and yells. The morning for freshman registration found us lined up from Main Building to flag pole. After many hours of standing in lines and registering, we were officially students of A. and M. College and assigned to the different units of military organiza¬ tion on the Campus. College Night made A. and M. dear to us forever. A. J. Farmer was elected president of the 1927 class and lead us through the year that we will remember as our best and most eventful of the four years at A. and M. The following September our numbers were lessened by several hundred. Some had fallen by the wayside during the first year and some failed to return. D. C. (Spike) Arnold was elected president at our first class meeting. December first came, and more members of the class were lost. The class of 1927 witnessed a great deal of expansion in building at the college this year. A new gymnasium was erected, the main drive paved, and a new assembly hall put into use. The termination of the leadership of Dr. Bizzell as President of the College ended our sophomore year, and we lost a great man in school administration. Juniors of 1925-6 returned to the campus that year to be greeted, along with the other classes, by A. and M.’s new president, T. O. Walton. From the start our new president proved himself very capable. The first athletic victories for some time took place during our junior year. When the last whistle blew on Thanksgiving day the Southwestern football championship came to A. and M. along with the greatest defeat of Texas University in the history of Southwestern football, 28 to 0. Our fleet cross-country men won the conference championship at Houston, too- . Pi R . L. (Buck) Edgar was elected junior president early in the year. The Aggieland Inn, a long needed hotel was constructed and put into use at the first of the year. Commencement week was full of plans for Summer Camp work, and on June the first we left College Station for a weeks vacation before assembling at the various army camps for R. O. T. C. training. This year, as Seniors, we have realized how quickly three years pass by. Youths have grown into men of responsibility and capability. Boots and spurs are now in our possession and we have come to realize the responsibilities of a senior class at A. and M. S. I. Stratton has been chosen as our leader this year. The time for being members of the student body is growing short and with eagerness we are looking forward to the time when the diplomas will be ours and our names will be entered on the roll of the ex-students. Then too, as we review the last four years and realize that we will soon be scattered to the four quarters of the world, it will be with dragging feet, many a backward glance, and a tear or two when we leave on June the first, 1927. A. and M., we the class of 1927, salute you, may you send out better and better men as the years go bv. . | Charlie Milo Sessums “AT THE ELEVENTH HOUR.” The wings of Death have settled down On thee, old pal of mine; You lived your life, but now ' tis gone; God rest you and your kind. An Aggie ever good and true, Old boy, old pal of ours, Your memory is with us, Lad, At this eleventh hour. News came before the sun rose high: You’d left for Heaven’s Bower, We grieved, and are still grieving, Lad, At this eleventh hour. Aggie of ours, in manhood’s prime, Time leaves little but names, But you and yours, will always live In Aggie halls of fame. When age has lightened hair to gray When mem’ry sways in power It’s you that’ll come back, Laddie mine, At the eleventh hour. And now this fateful day is done, Thou rest, an unbloomed flow’r, And Silver Taps blows once again, At this eleventh hour. —James E. Gunn. Page 80 JUNIORS J. H. Warren, President OFFICERS J. H.

Knowing very little about Aggieland, they felt very much out of place in the midst of the joyous reunions held by the upperclassmen. Very soon, however, a warm welcome was extended to them by the college and especially by the Sophomores. The well known “Bull-Pens” were soon in session and the flying “fish killers” could be heard in heated action. This new life gave the fish little time to worry, and, with the guidance of the “older boys,” they were soon made true Aggies. Very soon after the beginning of school, the first class meeting was held, and C. B. Maufras was elected to the office of President. During this year, many members of the class were distinguished in scholarship and athletics. The first term’s school work, together with football season, seemed to pass very quickly, but the second term was rather slow, the monotony being broken only by the fish banquets and the several athletic seasons. The fish banquet, although largely a restricted affair, shall never be forgotten. With the closing of the year, the class realized that the best year of school was, at last, over. As the summer holidays came to an end, most of the class returned, but many of the old faces were found missing. Realizing that they were no more the lowly fish but the high rating Sophomore, with fish of their own to educate, they set out to instill in their followers the spirit of Aggieland, and it can not be said that they did not earn a name for themselves and attain the goal of their ambitions. The officers elected that year were as follows: J. S. Mey, President; T. A. Kincaid, Vice-President; J. J. Sloan, Secretary-Treasurer; R. M. Babcock, Historian. It was this year that witnessed the annexing of two championships one in cross¬ country and the other in football. The great Aggie eleven made history for the school when they won the Southwestern Conference Championship by defeating Texas 28-0. The Sophomores of ’28 were not only represented on the gridiron but also in track, base¬ ball, and basket ball. That year was the fiftieth anniversary of the college, and it marked an epoch in the history of Aggieland. Dr. Bizzell, who had been president of the institution for eleven years, resigned and Mr. T. O. Walton was inaugurated in his place. Although this year, 1926-1927, has not been such a successful year for us in athletics, we are grateful to every Aggie athlete, and are justly proud of those that came from our ranks. The T. men from the Junior class are: J. F. Blount, H. Broiles, P. C. Colgin, A. B. Childers, S. A. Clark, J. A. Deffebach, O. J. Hunt, W. S. Lister, J. A. Rektorik, O. E. Schowe, J. V. Sikes, A. C. Sprott, and H. P. Wylie. The class of ’28 was indeed well represented on the yelling staff in “Bugs” Warren and A. H. Peoples. The class officers elected this year are “Bugs” Warren, President; Charlie McDonald, Vice-President; J. C. Quisenberry, Secretary-Treasurer; J. L. Pratt, Historian. The Juniors of this year are looking forward to the “Summer Camp” and especially to the year ’28 proudly hoping to call themselves Seniors. Page 96 ■dS) 1 LU C.-.

Darnell about a week before the opening of JL school were not as conspicuous and did not create nearly as much attention as did Coach Bible’s football men, but they were fully as determined to succeed as were the gridsters. These six men, R. B. Davis, of Lamesa, W. G. Boyd of Wills Point, C. B. Kennington of Devine. H. L. Richards of Waco, S. Baker of Fort Worth, and E. E. Young of LaRue, entered into the two week’s training with avowed intentions of representing Texas A. and M. at the National Dairy Show at Detroit, Michigan, and The National Dairy Cattle Congress at Watetloo, Iowa, and it was not until the last day that Coach Darnell was able to announce his team. The successful men were Davis, Boyd, Baker, and Richards alternate. After the selection of the team the Kream and Kow Klub tendered the boys a farewell banquet and presented each with $170 to help defray expenses. The trip, which started September 23, was an eventful one. The first day was spent near Dallas, at Crystal Point and Flowerdale Farms, where the team held workouts. The next move was across the Texas boundary line into Missouri, where the team had a profitable workout on Longview Farms near Kansas City. This was the last workout before entering the National Dairy Congress at Waterloo, with exception of visit to famous Marsh Guernsey herd. Results at the Dairy Congress were not all that could be desired, but A. and M. carried off first place in Brown Swiss. ' A d The team’s arrival at Chicago caused Coach Darnell much worry, for his farmer boys seemed determined to get into trouble. However nothing serious happened, and the team put in two profitable days at the Chicago Guernsey Farm, The Four Pine Farm, and The Spinney Run Farm. One day was spent at the noted Oakland Jersey Farm, Ann Arbor, Mich., before going on to Detroit, the home of the Detroit Creamery Farms. At Detroit the team again encountered stiff competition, however W. G. Boyd was first in Guernseys and R. B. Davis third in Holsteins. Although the trip was not a great success, the entire team fought hard and felt repaid for their work. Much credit is due to members of the team and the two who failed to make the trip.

College started to work iL and had for its goal, Chicago. Competition was keen and for several weeks eight men worked diligently from day to day on their tryouts for the contest. On December fifth, Coach D. F. Irvin announced the team. The personnel of the team was: S. I. Stratton of Freeport; O. J. Hanzen of Dallas; J. B. Kiber of Corsicana, and E. W. Brown of Lubbock. The team left for Chicago, December ninth, entering the contest December twelfth. Ten states were represented, this being Texas’ first poultry judging in Chicago. The contest consisted of judging five classes of production birds and five exhibition, also a quiz over The Standard of Perfection. Texas placed second in production and sixth in the whole contest, S. I. Stratton being high point man on the t eam. Iowa placed on top this year and this is our aim for next. INTERNATIONAL LIVESTOCK JUDGING TEAM riTH the opening of school in September, thirteen Animal Husbandry students reported VV as candidates for the International Livestock Judging Team. Workouts were held regularly every evening after classes and on Saturday afternoons. A day and a half was spent in Dallas judging the stock on exhibition at the State Fair of Texas. On October 31st the squad was reduced to the eight highest ranking men, who were: J. D. Amend, J. H. Floyd, R. E. Homann, F. Lukenbach, Jr., C. W. McDonald, W. G. Ralph, J. C. Appleman, and F. N. Newsom. The following week the six first named men were selected to make up the team. The Saddle and Sirloin Club gave the team a very impressive send-off and on the morning of November 11th the team and their coach, A. H. Groth, left for the American Royal Livestock Show at Kansas City to compete in that contest. A brief stop was made in Fort Worth and the team arrived in Kansas City on Friday morning, November 12th, when the Kansas City Chamber of Commerce supervised a tour of some of the leading stock farms in America. N. 5? A Twelve teams competed in the Kansas City contest, which was won by Colorado. A. and M. finished sixth and gained much valuable experience. The two weeks between the Kansas City and Chicago contests were spent in working on the prize-winning livestock at the American Royal and at Iowa State College, Purdue University, and University of Illinois. v- £ i — Twenty-three teams from the United States and Canada competed in the International Contest for the Coveted Bronze Bull tiophy. That the Texas boys gave a good account of them¬ selves is shown by their winning eighth place. J. D. Amend made a very creditable showing by finishing third among the one hundred and fifteen. He also tied for first rank in judging sheep. The rest of the men finished with very good scores. Left to right : Ralph, Amend, McDonald, Homann, Floyd, Lukenbach, Newsom. Page 106 A. M. DEBATING TEAM P ' jP ' HE FORENSIC SOCIETY, which was discontinued last year because of lack of interest, has been revived this year under the leadership of Professor C. 0. Spriggs. The purpose of this society is to give its members practice and training in parliamentary law and public speak¬ ing, and much intere st has been shown throughout the year. One feature of the meetings has been the talks by noted faculty members. The most noteworthy result of the work of the Forensic Society has been the sponsoring of the debating team. Only seven men responded to the call for debaters, and all of these men will be used in debates. The team is composed of S. C. Leslie of Houston; I. Irwin of Dallas; J. L. Reitch of Marshall; J R. Wood of San Antonio; J. D. King of Ennis; R. H. Jones of Gal¬ veston, and J. J. Pipkin of Bryan. Four debates were planned, and teams selected. A team composed of Reitch, Leslie and Irwin debated Louisiana State University on February 26th, and Kansas Agricultural College on March 17th. Both of these debates were held at college, and the question was: Resolved, that congress should enact legislation embodying the princi¬ ples of the McNary-Haughen far m bill.” A triangular debate with S. M. U. and T. C U. was arranged for some time in April; S. M. U. to come to College, and A. M. to go to I. C. U. Wood and King were selected to debate S. M. U. while Jones and Pipkin journeyed to T. C. U. The question was: Resolved, that the United States should grant the Phi ' ippine Islands their independence in five years, retaining foreign relations. The success of the season cannot be measured in wins and losses, but in the good derived from the work. Much credit is due Mr. Spriggs for his work in coaching the teams, and what success there has been is due to him. Bottom row: King, Leslie, Spriggs (Coach), Irwin .

They are banded together that they may help the Institution they love so well; that they may help and keep in contact with each other and that they may help the present students in their work and struggles for an education. The Student Loan Fund work of the organization has grown by leaps and bounds. In 1926 the Association extended financial assistance to 914 men and loaned a total of $60,000.00. Out of that number of loans only three are delinquent. This “Investment in Young Manhood” is one of the most appealing and far-reaching phases of the Association’s work. The office of the Association is a clearing-house for any service that can be rendered to the members. Dozens of men are placed in profitable and congenial em¬ ployment each year Students are counseled and assisted. Correct addresses and files are maintained for the great body of Former Students. The A. M. Endowment Plan is planned to eventually finance the Association and give it an adequate amount of loan funds. Caesar Hohn, as director, has made rapid strides in the new work. It will some day mean much to the College and to the Association. The aim of the Association is in every way to serve the College, its officers and students, and every A. M. man, wherever he may be. sr . Page 108 RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES ) ' l ' V ■ ' .MriyaiilW ' Yv. .4,1 IjO r HQDXi Y. M. C. A B M. L.

It also furnishes meeting places for all groups and organizations including services for two church groups. The Y. M. C. A. is an integral part of the life of A. and M. College. Its very existence is due to the fact that there was a deep felt need for such an institution. The “Y” staff is instru¬ mental in bringing to the Campus each week, two of the best picture shows available, and also from time to time high class musical entertainments are brought to the campus under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. A McKpe Russell o o Hickman Page 110 v ' ■ npHIS year plans have been made for a constructive program looking forward to a number of A school years for its development, execution, and growth. The first step in carrying out the new program has been the selection of a Y. M. C. A. Cabinet consisting of sixteen strong Christian students who are its officers and chairmen of the various committees. These men are: President, F. C. Leslie, Dallas; Vice-President, J. F.

Six years ago there were no B. Y. P. U. organizations on the campus. Today we have nine live unions with almost 200 enrolled. Six years ago we had no systematic Christrian training. Last year we gave more than 300 S. S., B. Y. P. U., and B. S. U. awards. Six years ago we have no church property. Today we have an organized church with 250 members. Six years ago we had no church building; today we have none. In making a statement one of our students says: We have the church organization, the membership and the pastor, but what are we to do with them? We have no church building in which to hold our services. We need your financial support and your earnest prayers.” President Walton says: There is no piece of work being done at the institution which I regard as of greater material value to the man and to the institution than that being done by the college pastors. The greatest need is outside financial support. The Baptists of Texas owe it to their sons to make ample provision for adequate training during the four years they are at A. and M. College. The imperative and vital need of the Baptist denomination at A. and M. is a church building adequate to meet the needs of the Baptist church. It is the earnest hope of the pastor that many who read these statements will wish to have a vital part in the Baptist work here and send us a contribution. v to .5T I: is IjONQiHaDK Rev. J. C. Thomson 1 - X ;• = ' [TN JANUARY, 1920, Rev. King Vivion came to organize the Methodist work at College. The JL Tabernacle was built and was ready for use in the fall of 1922, and it has been a great factor in the growth of our work. Jesse C. Thomson was sent to us in the fall of 1922. The quality of his work is shown by the results. This year there are six hundred and eighty-one Methodist students and over half of these are more or less actively engaged in the churches’ work. We are trying to carry out as far as possible a normal church program. We have a good Sunday School, with eleven classes, under the direct supervision of Mr. Geo. P. Grout. Also seven active Epworth Leagues; an ex¬ cellent choir of twelve male voices under the direction of H. L. Tucker. We have a ten-piece orchestra led by Mr. B. E. Turbeville. The student work is organized under the Methodist Student Federation of Texas. The annual meeting of this organization was held at College, November 5th, 6th, and 7th, of 1926. A. V. Chapin, one of our own members was elected state president for the ensuing year. All indebtedness on the church property has been paid, and plans are being made for the building of a new parsonage this year. The Church is growing steadily and its influence is being felt more and more. UF Page 113 rl l [IIIC I I 1 I ft 8 ■X; -i- p L. L. Davison rrpHE CHRISTIAN, or Disciples of Christ, group has been active on the campus for several il years, and is a very potent force for good at present. It strives to enlist all members and friends of the Christian Church as soon as they arrive at A. and M. in order that they may neither fall into the habit of absenting themselves from public worship upcn the Lord’s Day nor neglect the things of the Spirit during the four-year formative period of their manhood. The present thrifty condition of the group is due in a large measure to the untiring efforts of Charles Watscn of Coleman, Texas, who throughout his college career at A. and M., 1923-25, gave much of his time to “rounding up” the membership and keeping them interested. We have a S. S. Class, taught by Prof. L. Leroy Daviscn, with application of the lessons to present-day living. We have as gccd an Endeavor Society as you will find anywhere, with an attendance ranging from twenty-five to eighty members at our meetings, which are held every Sunday evening from 6:30 to 7:30. Our splendid well-planned programs develop practical seven- day-a-week Christianity in our members as well as insight into the power for good they may exert in whatever community they find themselves after College. Nor do we neglect the social side. We have church services every Sunday evening from 7:30 until first call to quarters. We canno t afford a pastor and have only a few members among the faculty. Prof. Davison acts as pastor and secures outside speakers when possible; Mrs. Davison is chorister and gleans material for us while both encourage us to produce our own church services, which has brought to light much latent talent. EPISCOPAL GROUP Rev. VV. W. Daup ffP ' HE work of the Episcopal Church on the Agricultural and Mechanical College Campus is JL a growing power. Today, there is a student pastor, a definite Episcopal Group Organization, and a program of worship, fellowship and service. Due to the good graces of the faculty, meetings are held in the “Y” Chapel as the Church has no building of its own. The Holy Communion is read each Sunday morning at 8:30 and Evening Prayer is read each Sunday at 7:00. A sermon is preached every other Sunday in the evening. The other Sunday is given to the discussion of some interesting question. There is an executive board cons’sting of nine members of the Faculty and nine students which has the responsibility of assisting the Student Pastor in the work. This Board has func¬ tioned splendidly and its membership is composed of the best men available. At the beginning of the year, the Group numbered 122 and but few of the fellows have resigned. The recruiting committee is made up of one man from each hall, consequently, the students are personally urged to attend the services. We must mention the Church Service League which is composed of campus ladies, since it is due to their help that several most enjoyable social affairs have been possible. The Episcopal Club owes much to these good people. All Episcopal students will do well to make the most of the Club as many things happen which will be most helpful wh p n College days are ended. ------- II ssFW Page 115 • WlltliilW :. • A CCORDING to figures given out, there are one hundred and ten Catholic students registered in the College. At the present time Mass is held every Sunday in a room on the second floor of the C. E. Building for these students and the campus people who attend services with the students, Reverend J. B. Gleissner, Pastor of the Catholic Church in Bryan, is volunteer chaplain and pastor of the group. v- c At the present time workmen are busy constructing a new $20,000 Chapel just off the north end of the campus, w hich wall furnish a meeting place as w T ell as a Chapel for the group. This Chapel is being built by the Knights of Columbus of the State and is expected to be finished soon. Seventy-two students of the group are enrolled in the Newman Club, which is the A. and M. branch of that large organization. Officers of the Club are: S. J. Dielmann, President E. E. Figari, Vice-President C. M. Florer, Secretary-Treasurer. ■T- ' ' V tr PRESBYTERIAN GROUP Rev. D. B. Gregory 0-0 PE RAT I ON is the keynote of A. and M. campus life. The word also describes the v general policy of the campus group of Presbyterians whose plans rest on a threefold co¬ operative basis; namely, co-operation with the Presbyterian parents whose sons spend three- fourths of their collegiate life here, co-operation with the student in his religious life, and co¬ operation with the authorities of the college in every way possible. The relatively small group of Presbyterians who reside on the campus is merely a nucleus for the organization of the work, a work which is made as far as possible of, for, and by the students. During the current school year, payment on a half-acre of ground on the north side of the campus has been completed and contract for a manse has been awarded. The services of a permanent pastor have likewise been secured. Near the close of 1926, Reverend D. B. Gregory, of the Westminster Presbyterian Church, Kansas City, Missouri, accepted our call to the pastorate and immediately thereafter began his work on the campus. Dr. Gregory is essentially a man’s man who is especially interested in working with young men. It was this aspect of our call to him which was mainly responsible for his leaving a well-organized city church to come to us. We look forward with confidence to a future of achievement under his leadership. Page 117 GUION HALL CHAPEL npHE only assembly of the entire cadet corps is the Sunday morning service which is held 1 at Guion Hall. This is attended by Faculty members, and campus people as well as by the students. The most unique feature of this assem.bly is that there is not. a regular chaplain or minister, but an outstanding minister from various denominations .are incited in each week. All the Protestant denominations as well as the Jewish and Catholic are invited to preach at this convocation. One of the outstanding attractions is the music, which is furnished by the orchestra of twenty-five pieces and the student chorus of thirty-two men. I he campus choir,i made up of the Faculty members, also gives special numbers, and on each Sunday there is a solo, a duet or special m.usic by the Quartette, the chorus or the orchestra. Among those who conducted the Chapel last year were: Rev. Walter Mills, Presiding Elder, Houston. Dr. A. J. Price, Baptist. Dr. Colby Hall, Christian, T. C. U. Bishop C. S. Quinn, Episcopal, Houston. Dr. Henry Barriston, Jewish, Houston. Dr. Thos. W. Currie, Presbyterian, Austin. Dr. Robt. Cribble, Presbyterian, Austin. Dr. Peter Gray Sears, Episcopal, Houston. Bishop C. E.

It keeps them in touch with each other, acts as a medium for circulating information about the College and its problems, and contains many articles of interest and education. The location and progress of A. M. men in every line of the world’s work are recorded, to be read eagerly by their scattered friends; marriages, deaths, pro¬ motions, births, and the thousand and one little personal items regarding a man’s life are printed as they come to light, in order that the Fraternity of A. M. men will not languish through separation and isolation from each other. The Aggie further serves as a medium through which scores of our men are placed in employment every year, or enabled to advantageously change employment. It is the link that holds them so close to their Alma Mater, and brings its problems so vitally to them. It is a meeting place for our world-scattered A. M. family. ) SOCIETY 1 Miss Dora Lea Foster D. C. Arnold OOME of the best and yet saddest dances of the year are those given in the closing days of College, usually the last week of May. To the seniors, are these dances especially sad, for with them comes the realization that College Days and dances are almost over. The Junior- Senior Prom is given by the Juniors to the departing Seniors. The following night a Corps dance was given for all, while two nights later the last and biggest dance was given in the main mess hall. The Final Ball comes just before Commencement and closes the social activities at College. The Aggieland Orchestra, 1927 Page 126- ? Miss Rosebud Blondell C. W. McDonald ip ' HE Eighth Annual Rodeo and Pagent was acclaimed the biggest and best to date in beauty and brawn. Competition was keen in the various classes. Nobody received a permanent injiry and every wild steer available was ridden at least once. The entertainment began with a stirring display of Bryan and College beauty depicting the girl of 1926. Such a variety of sweetness in the modern girl was most appealing. The pageant was directed by Mrs. A. H. Cheshire and Mrs. R. L. Ware, who contributed greatly to the success of the Rodeo. A parade of the choicest specimens of livestock, dressed in showring perfection, was the second event. The gaited saddle horses seemed like poetry in motion to lovers of equine grace. Brawn was not lacking in the bulldogging, roping, wild cow milking, mounted wrestling, jumping and the steer and bronco riding contests. No other activity seems more characteristic of the spirit of the College and the State than this annual show. The Rodeo is a permanent attraction at A. and M. College. It is maintained by the Junior members of the Saddle and Sirloin Club to defray part of the expenses of the students who repre¬ sent the College in the Judging Contests at the American Royal and ' International Livestock Expositions. The students in charge of the show put forth every effort possible to give enter¬ tainment typical of Texas. Page 127 ■s-:. ' ■■■ ■ ' nv •• f] i; TP ' HIS dance is always given by the Cadet Corps to the football team after the -W ' final game on Thanksgiving Day. This year those at the dance were some¬ what handicapped by having to dance in the mess hall, with the mezzanine floor taking up quite a lot of the available space. This was unavoidable because our new Annex was not completed. Nevertheless the dance was well attended and will be remembered long as one of the best. The Captain of our football team, “Ox” Dieterich, and Miss Katheryn Briarly, led the grand march. J II HE “T” Club dance is one of the big dances in A. and M. College social life. The dance is sponsored by the T. Club, composed of men who have lettered in football, baseball, basket ball, track, and tennis. This year there are forty-one members in the Club. The officers are S. J. Baker, President; D. C. Arnold, Vice-President; J. V. Sikes, Secretary and Treasurer. This year the dance was given in the new mess hall annex, which was decorated with T blankets and the colors of A. M. In addition to the T dance a corps dance was given the following night, which made an exciting week-end for the girls who come to college for the dance. Miss Lily Bess Kyle and S. J. Baker led the grand march. T .v A. R. Menger Miss Helen Colglazier qpHE ROSS VOLUNTEERS is the oldest organized student unit at the A. M. College JL of Texas. The first company was organized in 1887 and was called the Scott Volunteers in honor of Colonel T. M. Scott, who was business manager of the College. In 1891 the name of the company was changed to Ross Volunteers in honor of former Gov¬ ernor Lawrence Sullivan Ross, who later became president of the college. Membership in the Ross Volunteers includes one hundred and twenty-seven students this year. Eighty-four being seniors and forty-three juniors. Membership is limited to the members of the two upper classes and is on a selective basis, scholarship and military proficiency being the essential requirements for election to this outstanding military organization. The main purpose of the organization is of a purely social nature. The officers this year are: H. W. Townsend, Del Rio, Captain; A. R. Menger, San Antonio, 1st Lieut.; S. Baker, Ft. Worth, 2nd Lieut.; R. A. Baker, Amarillo, 2nd Lieut.; L. H. Durst, Hill, Secretary-Treasurer. Page 130 R. V. DANCES H. W. Townsend Miss Hattie Schuenemann qpHE R. V. Dances are a feature of our early spring social life. They extend over a period -ic of four days and add much color and interest to the Ross Volunteers. The R.V. Banquet opens these festivities, followed by the R. V. Hop the same evening. The R. V.s choose a King who is crowned the following night during the Queen’s Ball. The decorative motif of these dances is always very carefully studied out and each year is becoming more brilliantly beautiful. This year the mess hall was decorated to represent a Co’onial garden scene with colonades, statues, and shrubbery, artistically combined to represent the garden. Fifty-two star lights, surmounted by a blue canopied sky, completed the illusion of an outdoor garden. Miss Helen Colglazier of San Antonio was queen, A. R. Menger of San Antonio being selected king. Page 131 Ths R. V. Hop, 1926 r TpVHE corps dances usually£given every two weeks in the mess hall have become an important part of our social jl life. These corps dances were an unheardof thing during the first term of this year due to the fact that our mess hall annex was under construction and the consequent crowded condition of the main mess hall by an addition of a temporary mezzanine floor. Despite these conditions the first large dance to be given in the mess hall was during the Thanksgiving holidays. At midterm several dances were given, one being the usual Barnyard Dance. The hall was appropriately decorated while everyone appeared in as rustic a costume as possible. The freedom and hilarity which this dance always affords proclaimed it a success from the first. On the following night we had our first real corps dance given in the Mess Hal! this year. Aggieland played their very best that night and while many a fish with social aspirations gazed longingly through the windows, Seniors struggled valiantly to keep their dates away from the stag-line in order to get at least a dozen steps in peace. On the evening of February 26th, the ew Annex to the mess hall was formally opened by a corps dance. That was a gay night for the Aggies, for at least we had a beautiful new hall in which to give our dances. Eagerly we examined every new feature, gleaming hardwood floors, a big check room, rest rooms and parlor. In addition to good music and a floor like glass, Mr. Duncan furnished us with delightful refreshments. Thereafter corps dances were given at two-week intervals throughout the second term. ftME: c p RIG LIT- oH THt JOB i— G Ls 1 - AGGIE HALL OF FAME “Red” Schuenemann Because it is said of him that he has not a single enemy on the Campus. To know Red is to prove that—when he isn’t out on Kyle Field showing us the fine points of baseball, he is the center of a group of fellow Aggies. “Punk” Baker Because he is steady and dependable; always bestowing favors with a ready smile and congenial manner. In recognition of his athletic ability and personality, we place him in the Aggie Hall of Fame. “Babe” Watts Because Babe is another one of our out¬ standing athletes and a good fellow to go along with it. On the athletic field he is clean, aggressive; on the Campus he is earnest, capable. “Buck” Edgar Because with his cheery smile and easy manner, plus ability to put things over; he has won a coveted place in our hearts. Buck is a man with many friends. “Crazy-Boy” Parker Because we can’t help but like him and wonder at his ready wit. He has a super¬ fluity of energy and life which he radiates out to those with whom he comes in con¬ tact. Did you ever see him run? Boy! he knows his stuff. Page 134 “Punch” Altenbern Because he came to us a Yankee and left us a Southerner. He accepted our customs and is the kind of fellow everyone wants for his best friend. The Senior Class gave him a neat honor when they elected him Valedictorian. “L. J.” Franke Because to him did we entrust the Editor¬ ship of our college weekly and most ably did he carry the burden. Never satisfied with compromise, he always held to those principles that stood for the best—could any man do more? “Siki” Sikes Because he is one of our three letter men, starring in football, basket ball and baseball. And besides being a good ath¬ lete, he is a good fellow. “Spike” Arnold Because he is a splendid athlete and a man conscientious of his duty and respon- bility, guided by the ideal of justice to all. He has gained for himself a high place in Aggieland. “Ox” Dieterich Because early in his college career he established for himself a fine record of foot¬ ball ability and this terminated in him being elected the captain of the ’26 Aggie Eleven. We are proud of him because he was one of the Aggies selected on the All-South- western Conference Team. Page 135 ‘Si” Stratton Because we early learned to place trust and confidence in him for he does things and does them well. Si, as Senior Class President, has piloted his fellow students through a successful year. Because he is one of those kind of men that will gladly lay aside, his own work to help others. Neff goes quietly through each day performing his duty and setting a record of ability and scholarship. Because he is quick to see his oppor¬ tunity and ready with a decision and thusly has shown us some rare stuff out there on Kyle Field. Recognition of this ability may be seen in his being chosen for the All-Southwestern Team. Because he is such an unassuming fellow that he usually hides his versatility from a host of admiring friends. Determination, willingness and a desire to play the game square has endeared him. to the heart of Aggieland.

Our Co-ed had the opportun¬ ity of seeing the Corps act as hosts to the visitors. A long train pulls in from Fort Worth and soon the Campus is grac¬ ed with fair damsels parading up College drive and the Military Walk. Sue is eager for the game to begin. The football game that afternoon proved to be a valiant struggle. Sue sat in awe as yell after yell sounded from the Aggie bleachers. It seemed as though one mighty voice threw out a challenge for anyone to defeat them on their own sand lot. 10 Here we find the Aggies again in the role as hosts - - this time to Rice Institute. The Owls arrived with a “hoot”. Our Co-ed climbed to a place of vantage and eagerly watched the vis¬ itors as they invaded the stomping grounds of the Aggies. Poor Owls, ! little did they know what was in store for them. She mingled with the crowd as they hurried down to Kyle Field to assist in “pulling the Owl’s tail out”. Be¬ tween halves she sees that masterpiece of human design - - - the Aggie T, and in the dis¬ tance sits the class of ’27 witnessing their last game on Kyle Field. mm . 1 S ' -P im y S- m i i L. i fL Turkey Day was at hand, bringing with it the chance to see the A and M - Texas game. It appeared as though all Texas had congre¬ gated in Austin that day to watch the khaki-clad lads as they paraded up Congress Avenue. i Then out to the Texas Memorial Stadium to find thousands of people l assembled to view the clash of these ancient rivals. Sue suffered ! { many a heartache that j I day as she watched her Aggies outscored but not t defeated. Between § f—i | | I I 1 halves there were many | I colorful events. i | mm One of the most im¬ pressive features that Sue noticed on her jaunt through Aggieland was the tribute the fellows paid to their teams. “Wildcat” and “Taps” alternately thrilled and saddened her. Search the world over, find, if you can, a more touch¬ ing and sincere cere¬ mony. This was the Co-ed ' s first chance to see that peculiar animal that running from all parts of the Campus as the first notes of the bugle call for “Soupy Sunday was a busy day and included a ram¬ ble to the station to watch another week roll by with the arrival of the 3 o ’clock train. A game of Polo and a passing squint at the “Bull-ring added to the gaiety of nations. A favorite pas¬ time was joining in The Big Parade iffiilks? I f The beauties of Spring on the Campus are left aside for a few moments for a ramble through the “halls of learning” to admire the things there¬ in. One could look to dizzy heights from the Rotunda of the Main Building to where “Prexy’s Moon” shown forth on Aggieland. Thinking back over i j ; the past year, Sue could | } ! remember many little { things that had happen- j ed. The time the Fish painted their numeral on the stand pipe and miss¬ ed “cush” for thirty days; and the time when all Aggieland assembled to pledge their faith on Kyle Field. x v ’ r t A birds-eye view of the College is best seen from the top of the Main Building. In fact, on a clear day it is a fine sub¬ stitute for an airplane ride showing a pano¬ rama of the surrounding buildings that dot the Campus on a carpet of green. T ’ Sue did not forget a visit to the College Hos¬ pital where many Aggies have found rest, a few kind words, and a cock¬ tail from our friends, the nurses. The pleasant smile of Dr. Marsh and the peaceful atmosphere of the wards are a “cure- all” for low spirits.

C. that is better supported by the War Depart- JJL ment than indoor rifle shooting. Excellent rifles and an abundant supply of ammunition are supplied free of charge to all units. During the past year there was expended in our indoor rifle range a total of over two hundred and twenty thousand rounds of gallery ammunition. Due to our greater familiarity with guns, indoor rifle shooting at Texas A. M. does not hold quite the interest that it holds in the northern institutions, where but little opportunity for outdoor shooting exists. Another reason for its lack of popularity is due to failure to furnish any award for excellence in this very popular competitive sport, whereas at almost three- fourths of the other R O. T. C. units awards are given either by the Athletic Department in the form of a minor sport letter, or by suitable awards from the college. Etere we get neither. Our intramural matches began soon after December 1st and were concluded short ' y after the beginning of the second term. Co. “E” Infantry was declared winner in the matches, shoot¬ ing through the entire season without meeting a defeat. The “Besse” cup, together with silver medals donated by the following merchants of Bryan, Eugene Edge, Sam B. Wilson, Wilson Bradley, Webb Brothers, T. K. Lawrence, Waldrop and Company, and engraved by Parks Jewelry Company, were presented to the team at the review of the corps. Our team matches began early in November with a match against V. P. I., which was won by V. P. I. In January, February and March we shot the following matches: Won Senior R. O. T. C. Corps Area match against all R. O. T. C. units in the Eighth Corps Area; won from V. M. I.; won from New York University; won from University of Cincinnati; won from Northwestern University, and took seventeenth place in Hearst Intercollegiate among eighty-eight competitors. Took twentieth place in the final inter-corps Area match. Lost to Oklahoma A. M.; lost to Texas School of Mines. Campaign ribbons were donated by t he Military Department to the shooting members of the team at a review held during commencement festivities. While we did not succeed in winning all of our matches, we believe that we had a very suc¬ cessful season. Our hopes are high for next year as we will lose but few of the members of this year’s team.

The man who makes the Aggie athletic program, possible in its fullest sense. It didn’t take a prophet or three wise men from the Fast to fgure out that it takes money to make the wheels go round. Now you have it, James Sullivan is the man who makes the A. and M. athletic wheels go round, and makes them do it without a bit of noise. A gigantic monument to the mana¬ gerial ability of “Sully” today stands out before the world in the form, of a newer and greater Kyle Field. The mam¬ moth Memorial Gymnasium, the better athletic facilities, the plans for even a greater program of expansion, and a rosy athletic tint on the sky are all his handiwork. n Ex-students are all astonished today, upon returning to the campus, over the great change that has come over Kyle Field. They marvel over the new, business-like attitude that has come over the place. More credit to “Sully” and his staff! In passing it might be added that no more worthy a tribute could be paid Mr. Sullivan than to say that he is a sure-enough dyed-in-the wool business man, and knows how to mix ath¬ letics and business in one great pot, and get the best of results. His actions speak louder than his words, and it would not be the least bit an assumption, to state that the future of the Aggie athletic ship is in good hands as long as old skipper “Sully” is at the helm. 15a ' 1 - 1 I MAJOR SPORT COACHES 1 FEET the brains behind the teams that represent Aggieland on the field of collegiate sport! JLviL The coaches whose willingness and effort have made A. M. College cleaner, through better sportsmanship, and cleaner sportsmanship. These three men, Coaches Bible, Anderson, and Rothgeb, might be well compared to the three legs of a stool. A hich is the more important? All three of these men are responsible for the good teams that represent Aggieland, and for the clean fighting spirit they possess. What more could be said of Coach Bible other than he is truly a southern gentleman, who will not lower his honor nor his name to win unfairly. A true fighter, and a scholar in every sense of the word. A man who represents only those things that are good. A man among men, and an inspiration to all the athletes and students who com.e in personal contact with his radiant nature. In Coach Anderson we have another measure of a man, another southern gentleman, and an advocate of clean fight in athletics. Coach Anderson is a man with whom any athlete should be proud to work. Coach Anderson sets the goal of his team.s just a bit higher each successive year and yearly his teams are better and better. He is a close student of human nature and has adapted his knowledge to his work with a very keen ability. Nothing better could be said of this little, smiling man than to say that he is loved and respected by all of the men who have the fortune to be connected with him in any activity, athletics or otherwise. Those who know him associate Coach Rothgeb with everything that is good and clean, both in athletics and in everyday life. Here is a square shooter, a man who deals fairly and squarely with his men, and who has earned the most wholesome respect and love of the men who go to make up the teams he coaches. His coaching ability is unquestionable and may be judged by the fight and drive he instills into the men he coaches. Coach Frank G. Anderson Track and Football Coach D. X. Bible Football and Basket Ball Coach Claude Rothgeb Football and Baseball MINOR SPORT COACHES irzi FRESHMAN COACH TX FEET Coach Bender, the man who makes things hum for the “fish” athletes from the time they register until the time they become sophomores. This is the man who takes his wide and varied experiences both as a college athlete and as a big league ball player, and impresses them on the minds of the coming generation of athletes in Aggieland to such an extent that with the addition of plenty of practice and work in their chosen sport, a high school boy becomes varsity athletic material. It takes a sharp man, and a smart man, to handle the large bunch of “Fish” athletes that Coach Bender handles every year, and still do so as efficiently as he does. The Athletic Department is to be congratulated upon having secured such a man as Mr. Bender to perform the important duties that he has to perform. Coach Thomas is the m.an that gives the racket wielders the finer points of the game. In addition to knowing “all about” the game of tennis, Coach Thomas is still young enough and spry enough to get on the court and demonstrate to his pupils, tennis as it should be played. A gentleman and a scholar combined in this man make him an agreeable person to be around, and fit him ideally for his task of coach of the tennis team. Doc. Sprague is the m.an who knows all about sore legs, arms and backs. He is the fellow to whom, the Aggie athlete trusts his sore parts for treatment. Doc is always on the job and ready to cater to sore muscles and bones. One might truthfully describe him in saying “He knows his liniment.” Doc is an Ex-Aggie, a letter man, and is beloved by the whole student body. .y Carl T.

College of Texas, like any other form of activity, have their governing board. This group of men represent the college through committees in all affairs dealing with the athletic relations of the institution. They are the guardian angels of the destinies of athletics at the school, and through them athletic affairs are managed. Each mem¬ ber of the board has the Aggie athletic spirit deep in his heart, and devotes much of his time to its interests. The board proper consists of members of both the faculty and of the student body. The five members chosen from, the faculty are all deeply interested in their duties. They are m.en of mature judgment, and are responsible for most of the good that comes from, athletic participation of the college in collegiate athletics. Most of the members have been with the board a number of years and their experience is a golden asset to the college. These men carry to the faculty the viewpoint of the student body. Two members of the board are chosen annually from the student body. These men are usually representative athletes, and have the athletic affairs of the college deep at heart.

With Coach Bible working over the Aggie backheld material, and Coach Rothgeb fashion¬ ing a line from a bunch of untried but willing material, the two soon had a combination of willing men who were on their toes and ready for the opening game with the Trinity Tigers. The Aggies first took actual stock in this game and although the dope pointed to a low margin victory for the Farmers, they took the measure of the Tigers in a very decisive manner. Coach Rothgeb’s line was practically impenetrable while Bible’s pony backs tore off long gains. The Aggies disposed of the Southwestern Pirates in an easy manner, and the Sewanee Tigers fell before the Aggie team. New Mexico U. did not even furnish the farmer lads a good work-out in a battle on Kyle field. The first conference game, with S. M. U., resulted in a loss for the Aggies, although the Farmer lads outfought and outplayed them from the whistle to the gun. Coach Rothgeb’s line again held like a stone wall, while Bible’s “rabbit” backfield tore off gain after gain and shot passes for long gains. The loss of this pivot game put the Aggie team into a despondent mood and they lost to the Baylor Bears the following week-end. T. C. U. was next in line and in a close-fought battle a tie resulted. The Aggies sent the Rice Owls back to Houston with defeat perched on their banner. Even though the game was hard fought, the score was decisively in favor of the Aggies. The Turkey Day game was a heart-breaker for both the cadets and the ex-students. There are no alibies to offer. The team with the most determination won the game. They were out to avenge the terrible defeat they suffered last year, these Texas Longhorns, and in a measure they did. In passing, credit must be given where credit is due. Many writers throughout the state do not give enough credit to one man who toils with his very heart and soul in the Aggie cause. We mention Coach Claude Rothgeb as the man to whom the Aggie cause means so much. His phenomenal lines have usually been one of the determining factors in most of the games played since he has been with the Aggies. In the S. M. U. game his line tore the powerful pony defense open so that Bible’s fleet backs could penetrate the forward wall with ease. When we consider the fact that he usually starts the season with a bunch of green youngsters, and finishes the same season with the most feared line in the conference, results speak for themselves. Coach D. X. Bible i r : p ; I 1 FOOTBALL 152,6 T! THE TRINITY U. GAME HE Aggies ushered old dame L football by taking the touted Trinity Tigers into camp. Dope said that the game would be very close and the sporting eyes of Texas were looking to this game as a test for the new Aggie team. Trinity Tigers, un¬ der the tutelage of Coach Holton, are not to be taken lightly, so Coaches Rothgeb and Bible had fashioned their new ' material into the best team they could in a short time. The old and new men showed up to advantage in this game in spite of the heat and the strange surroundings. The entire team starred most of the time while Hunt demonstrated his ability as a quarterback for the first time. The melee resulted in the score of 26-0, favoring the Aggies at the end of the conflict. THE SOUTHWESTERN The Southwestern Pirates furnished the next piece-de-resistance for the Farmer lads, and in a slow but interesting game the Aggies copped the honors to the score of 35-0. The heat was unbearable and time outs were frequent for both sides. “Bean” Woodman started things going for the Aggies while Joel Hunt and the rest of the Aggie backfield piled up a good score. Bible used most of his substitutes in this game, testing the mettle of many of his promising future stars. The Aggies scored almost at will, and spent most of their time perfecting plays and trying out new combinations. W 7 Capt. “Ox” Dieterich, A ll-Southwestern The Huddle during time out FOOTBALL 1 2,6 THE SEWANEE GAME Football fans received an early season treat in the Annual Aggie- Sewanee game held at the State fair. Eleven maroon-jerseyed warriors filled with the old fighting power of the Aggie teams of old, and a twelfth man in khaki outfought, outplayed and outscored the seemingly over-touted Tigers from Sewanee. For the fourth time the Farmer lads sent the hungry Bengalis back to their Tennessee mountain lair in as many years, this time with a big 6-3 knot tied in their tails. With their greatest team in years, and a running and passing at¬ tack par excellence, the Tigers tried to the last ditch to outscore the Aggies, but a lucky field goal was their only tally. The ole Aggie line was impregnable through the most part of the game, and espe¬ cially in the shadows of their own goal posts. The Aggie line proved its sterling worth in the third quarter when Sewanee recovered a fumble in the Aggie territory and advanced to the Aggie eight-yard line. Coach Rothgebs’ proteges held like an anchor against the powerful lunges of Helvey. It was Capt. Todd who did all the passing and kicking for the Tigers, and hailed as one of the best kickers and passers in the south, was smothered in most of his attempts and was clearly out-generaled on the field by the Aggie quarter, Joel Hunt. Kimbrough, Helvey, Todd, Johnson, and Young were the men who kept things going for Sewanee, while practically the whole Aggie team was hopping into the limelight most of the time. Hunt, for the Aggies, was easily the offensive star of the game, for it was with an almost impossibility confronting him, he turned a sure loss of ground into a touchdown by twisting and squirming through the whole Sewanee team for the necessary yardage. In picking the stars of the game one might as well pick the whole team as a man had to be a star in order to stay with the rest of the men. The Aggies stuck together, fighting shoulder to shoulder, first to stave off defeat, and then to convert defeat into victory.

GAME In their third game of the season the Aggie football squad had a nice workout before the large crowd of visitors assembled for the fiftieth birthday of the college. For the sec¬ ond time in as many weeks, the Aggies upheld the honor of the S. W. confer¬ ence by turning sectional rivals away in defeat. True to the mans’ name to which the day was dedicated, the two teams upheld the honor of the “Father of Football,” Walter Camp, in the fullest sense of the word. No un- sportsmanship tactics were evident. The two teams battled furiously, the Aggies for victory, and the New Mexico team to keep off defeat. The score does not indicate the pluckiness with which the New Mexico team fought, and although the final points were 63-0 favoring the Aggies, those 63 points were hard-earned points. The only offensive scare the Aggies received in the game was during the latter period when New Mexico completed several long passes. They lacked the drive to score against Rothgebs’ barrier, and the game was practically sewed up for the Aggies from the start. “Jelly” Woodman almost set a new record in points made, scoring over half of the points made himself. Hunt played a heady game at quarter, and the team rarely had any trouble scoring or making gains at will. The score probably would have mounted higher had the field been dry. Many fumbles occurred during the game, and it was slowed down considerably through slippery turf. The New Mexico team had two very good men in Boynkin and Young. This pair made several good gains through the pass route. Coach Bible made many substitutions in an effort to give all of his proteges a chance. The line was again the main cog in the machine. Colgin, Half Sykes, All-Conference End .2? ' T ’M. FOOTBALL 1512,6 THE S. M. U. GAME In the first conference tilt of the season, the Aggies outplayed out¬ fought, and still were outscored by S. M. U. Although they tasted the bitter dregs of defeat, they time after time drove the Mustang herd down the field by every means possible of advancing the ball. Hunt played the game of his life, and directed the game like a born quarter. It was not lack of drive that kept the Aggies from scoring after their many long advances, but on the other hand it was pure old hard luck. In fact the old bird of luck was perched on the banners of the Mustangs from the start. From a spectator’s point of view the game was just about the most interesting ever had in Texas. It was a battle for blood from the very start. The Mustangs fought to avenge the defeat of the year before. The Aggies put up one of those famous under-dog fights that only an Aggie team can give. In short, the game was football as she should be played. S. M. U. boasted a team with reserves strong enough to defeat any team in the conference. Before the game had gone very far, the Mustang mentor was using every man he had that even looked like a star, and between every yell from the Mustang rooting section there was a prayer to “hold back that crimson tide.” The game ended a heart- breaker for the Aggies. The score 9-7 was burned deep into the hearts of the loyal Aggie cadet corps, and the shadows of the wings of defeat shrouded the “leather lunged” cadets. The entire Aggie team starred in this encounter, this key game of the season. Without doubt they put out their very last, and to be denifed victory after earning it was almost too much. Several of the Farmers’ star players were injured in this fray, Sprott, Dieterich and others receiv¬ ing bad injuries which did much to handicap the team in the succeeding games. Coach Rothgebs’ line again made the opposing forward wall look like a bunch of amateurs. Time after time the Aggie forward wall tore the touted S. M. U. line into shreds. The work of Sprott, Wylie, Dieterich, Watts, and in fact the whole line, reserves and all was wonderful, and no end of credit is due them. Bartlett, Tackle I SlMMONDS, Full FOOTBALL 1 2,6 THE BAYLOR GAME With the memory of the heart¬ breaking defeat of the week before still on their minds, the Aggies were in no shape for battle with as worthy foes as the Baylor Bears. The entire Aggie team was out of tune both physically and mentally for the game, and the Baylor Bruins did not defeat the same aggressive combination that had given the Mustangs the fight of their lives the week preceding. In¬ juries had taken their toll in the Aggie camp. Baylor had everything to gain, and the Aggies had everything to lose. The game was close fought, and the handful of cadets that made the trip, saw their team lose gloriously. Coach Bible used many of his reserve linemen in the fray, and every one of these men came through with old Aggie fight to the last stand. Mosher, sent in to fill a gap left by injuries played the game of a veteran. Wren turned in a nice game as a substitute. j 5 In making 20 points, the Bears performed a feat that has never been done before to a team coached by D. X. Bible. For the Bears, the outstanding men were Washam and Morris. Washam returned a punt for a touchdown while Morris was the feature of the line play of the Bruins the whole game. Due to unfortunate circumstances the game was marred by a tragedy in the loss of the life of one of the Aggie cadets between halves as a result of a pitched battle between a handful of cadets and the large part of the Baylor student body. This football game marked the last athletic encounter that the rival schools will engage in for several years to come due to a secessation of athletic relations, as a result of the student fight. a FOOTBALL 1 2,6 THE T. C. U. GAME With a desire to win almost at any cost except unfairness, the Aggies went into the battle with the T. C. U. Horned Frogs. It was a chance for the Farmer lads to avenge their only conference defeat of the previous sea¬ son. A brilliant offensive battle fea¬ tured the game from, start to finish. The educated toes of Washmon and Hunt furnished a thrill to the game. Hunt tried twice for a field goal, and twice did he succeed. Capt. “Three- Point” Washmon duplicated Hunt’s performance of securing points by the “toe” route. Twice, likewise, did he score points for his team from place kicks. His final kick was made in the last fifteen seconds of play, and sewed the game up as a tie. The sensation of the evening was Hunt’s feature drop kick from, the forty- eight yard line. By making this kick, he added another star in his banner of versatility. The first quarter was divided for honors between both the Frogs and the Farmers. Both sides made several good gains. “Bean” Woodman made several sensational line rips and turned in good gains. Capt. Dieterich, Wylie, and Burgess were able to go into the game, having recovered sufficiently from, their injuries to be allowed to play. Burgess made a name for himself in Aggie football annals by displaying some of the prettiest line driving seen on Kyle Field for several 3 mars. He flashed form typical of Louie Miller in his prime, and did so consistently through the game. The Aggies scored first by Hunt’s kick, and T. C. U. duplicated the kick in the same quarter. The Frogs’ next score came largely from a break when they recovered a fumble and put the ball over from the recovery. The Aggies, not to be outdone, made a touchdown in the next quarter, and in the last quarter both sides booted another field goal. The game ended just after T. C. U. had tied the score, and left the game a 13-13 tie. The game was hard fought, and cleanly fought, a credit to both teams. Wylie, Guard Petty, End “Bean” Woodman smashin’ thru Page 249 SSpip._ liOKCmOPNi FOOTBALL 1512,6 THE RICE INSTITUTE GAME In their annual game with the Rice Institute Owls of Houston the Aggies found their stride and handed the “birds” a thorough trouncing. The Farmer lads had the game to themselves almost from the start. They cut loose a passing attack that completely baffled the Owls. Petty, star Aggie end, got loose twice on the same play from practically the same point on the field and scored a touch¬ down each tim.e from a short pass. Arnold, Hunt and Woodman were particularly effective in making gains against the Owls. The entire line played a wonderful game, opening up large gaping holes in the Rice forward wall, which allowed Bible’s backs to get through for long gains on several occasions. As had been the case previously all through the season, the game was a hard-fought, clean one. Capt. “Heavy” Underwood of the Owls was easily the star of the game for the Institute eleven. He was everywhere, covering Aggie plays, and backing up the Rice forward wall like a demon. Several times it looked like the Houston eleven would get into scoring distance, but each time the Aggies went into the fight with renewed fury to stop the advance. The Aggie line was absent the services of Capt. Dieterich and Sprott, but the men who were filling their places did so like veterans, and upheld the name of the Aggie forward wall. ■ s $: T 1 HEaaw i . _ • _ ____ ' ■ rr FOOTBALL 15126 THE TEXAS “TURKEY DAY” GAME And then came the day of all days to the Aggie cadet, and to the Aggie “X’es.” Historic “turkey day!” That day in which a group of men whom he loves as life itself, goes into battle with its greatest athletic adversary. That day in which a new page of joy or sorrow is made on the Aggie ath¬ letic journal. Try as best they could the Farmer lads could not repeat the triumph of ’25. The desire to win in the hearts of the Longhorns was too great. Fight as best they could, the Aggies could not vanquish the inspired Texas eleven. In their own stadium in the shadows of their own towers, the Longhorns were super¬ men. The fact that the Aggies drew first blood in the encounter only served to anger the “Steer” to sublime fury. After the first quarter the game was Texas’ excepting at times when the Aggies would flash their old-time brilliance. At one time in the game it looked like the brilliant Hunt would return a Texas punt the length of the field for a touchdown. It was only a streak of luck that prevented his scoring. In dodging the Longhorn safety man after having sifted through practically the entire Texas team he tripped himself and lost a valuable second that might have, and probably would have, given him enough lead to have kept out of the clutches of a tackier coming up from the rear. In spite of an injured knee, “Bean” Woodman gave the spectators thrill after thrill with his brilliant playing under handicap. “Babe” Watts also turned in a wonderful game at center. Sprott, giant Aggie tackle, turned in a good account of himself, playing in an improvised head- gear. He showed great nerve by playing the entire game with a broken jaw. The Aggie cadet corps formed their famous “T” between halves. Good sportsmanship was in evidence through the entire game, both among the spectators, and on the field. A capacity crowd viewed the game, filling the entire Memorial Stadium, and when the smoke of battle had cleared away, the scoreboard showed Texas 14, Aggies 5. Burgess, Full FOOTBALL, 15)2,6 THE AGGIE FRESHMAN FOOTBALL TEAM CLASS OF ’30 npHE title to this picture might well be named, “Why opposing coaches are growing grey- -ib headed.” Yes, sir! Here are seventy-eight reasons why the future Aggie football teams should be champions. In looking over this bunch of football material you can see the all-state high school star and some old farmer boy from “the forks of the creek” side by side. Play foot¬ ball! Could a duck swim? The “Fish” team did not engage with any outside teams in gridiron conflicts save the power¬ ful Allen Academy team, which they trimmed into submission with ease. The freshmen had the Allen team outclassed both in numbers and in ability. The academy stars, however, put up a very game fight and m.ade the “Fish” work for every point they made. Over one hundred and fifty men reported for uniforms at the beginning of the season. This squad was cut down to about seventy-five later and by the end of the season the squad had been cut to about sixty men whom the coaches had picked as real finished varsity material. It is true that some of A. M.’s foremost football stars of past years failed to make the “Fish” team, and, consequently, we may rightfully trust that hidden in a khaki uniform is a star who did not have the ability at the time to make this team. Then again we may rightfully assume that in this group of husky athletes there is another “Bob” Berry, another “Mule” Wilson, or another Hunt or Dieterich. They have the ability and all else they need is the opportunity to show to the southwest conference and to the world what they are made of.

About fourteen men reported for training, and the first few weeks were spent in getting the men into shape. Actual hard training started immediately following the cessation of the Christmas holidays. The Aggies, however, had three games before the holidays, playing the Sam Houston State Teachers College quintet on the Aggie floor. The Aggies also had a pre-season game with the Houston Triangles, and the Sull Ross Teachers College. The conference season opened with S. M. U., January 8, and closed with the annual Texas U. game in Austin, February 26. i The season was a fairly successful one, and at the start it looked like the Green Farmer quintet would surprise the conference. The Aggies picked up three valuable men in Webster, Davis and Konecny, all sophomores, and freshmen letter men of last year’s “Fish” team. Coach Bible took his veterans, Sikes, Baker and Clark, and around them, built a speedy team with his three sophomore finds. The re- Co vch Bible suiting combination was a fast one, and gave the conference a hard fight. With the experience of the season behind them and the loss of a couple of men, including Capt. Baker, the little Aggie who has starred for three years under the Aggie spangles, the team of 1927-28 should give the conference something to talk about trying to beat. Page 2} 5 BASKET BALL, 1(92,7 REVIEW OF THE SEASON —Continued The first game of the season was held in the Aggie gym. T he Farmer quintet won the initial encounter with Sam Houston State Teachers College by a score of 23-17. The game was more of the nature of a tryout for the men. Coach Bible used a bunch of his new men and the showing of the candidates for places on the team was very gratifying. Baker played a good game, as is usually the case. The Aggies lost the second game mm] f to the Teachers by a close score. The 71 Teachers put up a closing-minute rally and got an extra point to defeat the Farmers. In the third game of the season the Aggie quintet engaged the Hous¬ ton Y. M. C. A. in a close game, the score being 37-20. A number of ex-Aggie basket ball stars were representing the Houston Y on the floor. The game started off fast and furious, the stamina of the Y team finally f ailing, thus giving the Aggies their victory. The next two games were played with Bull Ross Teachers College of Alpine. The games were held in the Memorial Gym and the Aggies were victors in both of the contests. The score of the first game was 50-31, while the second game resulted in a 40-25 victory for the Farmers. The games were of interest in that they furnished the Aggie coach an opportunity to try out his new sophomore finds. These men came through in a gratifying manner. Konecny displayed his possibilities as a guard, while Davis and Webster showed plenty of speed and stuff on the offense.

U. team in battle on the Me¬ morial Gym floor. This game marked the opening of the conference sched¬ ule and was fast and furious from the start. The entire team played superb basket ball. Capt. Baker was all over the floor guarding and shooting goals. The score was tied at the end of the period so the game went into an extra period. The Aggies sunk a field goal and a free toss to win the contest. In their second encounter of the conference schedule, the Farmer lads plucked the tail feathers from the Rice Owls in a close encounter, Houston. In this game, Clark, Aggie forward, made a name for himself by scoring nine field goals. The tall boy was all over the court and had the goal measured to a “T.” As usual, Baker played good ball. The work of Konecny and Davis was excellent, and Sikes’ game at center was good. In their first encounter with the Arkansas “Razorbacks,” in a two-game road trip to the Fayetteville school, the Aggies lost, 27-34. The “Hogs” completely outplayed the Aggies the latter half of the game, although the first of the game belonged to the Farmers. The contest was a bitter fight from the start to the finish. For a while it looked like the Aggies would come from behind to win, but they lacked the time to win, the time being called just as the Aggies in a last desperate effort had launched into a scoring streak. The entire team played well, and Baker’s work was especially commendable. Clark again got to the basket several times for P i ' � v ' . - — A ' .

Coach Bible’s pro¬ teges seemed to be off form, although they gave the “Hogs” a hard fight. “Punk” Baker and Konecny gave the “Hogs” an exhibition of close guard¬ ing and kept the Arkansas score much lower than it could have been. Returning from the state of Ar¬ kansas by the way of Dallas, the Aggies stopped off long enough to do battle with the “Mustangs.” In a closely fought contest, the Ponies avenged their previous loss to the Aggies by a one-point victory. That one point was earned by a free throw. The Aggies could not make their free throws count and the Mustangs made most of their points by this route. The newspaper decision of the game was that the Farmers outplayed the Ponies, but could not make their free tosses count. The score was 32-33. In the best game of the season, the Aggies, on their own court, battled the Longhorns to a one-point victory, after having lost to S. M. U. the week previous by just one point. The game went into an extra period and was a thriller from the starting gun until the finish. To the Aggies it has become a tradition that the Longhorns must not win in the Memorial Gym.. As a result the final score was 36-35. Baker, Sikes, Clark, and Davis, along with both Konecny and Webster, played wonderful basket ball for the victors. The Aggies lost their next game to the T. C. U. “Horned Frogs” on the Frog court. The Aggies seemed to have the game well in hand for the entire first quarter, but the Frogs came from behind to win the game. It was a pretty fight, the Aggies flashing an unsteady offense that at its height was brilliant. The final score was 20-36. The Aggies next took an easy game from the Centenary College “Gents” on the Memorial Gym court. There was no spectacular playing done as the Aggies had the gam.e well in hand from, the start. The final score was 38-10. u (5 vm . BASKET BALL 1512,7 REVIEW OF THE SEASON —Continued The second game with Centenary team also resulted in a vic¬ tory for the Farm.er boys. The score does not show completely what a run-away the Aggies really had. They played rings around the “Gents” from the very start. The only scores the Centenary boys put across were against a team composed practically of subs, which Coach Bible was giving a tryout. The final score was 46-26. In the next gam.e, the Aggies lost another of the “one-point” games that were so prominent in the conference for the season. The Aggies and Frogs had battled for practically the entire game, the lead changing every few minutes. The Aggies had been leading almost to the final gun. A few good shots by Cantelmi put the T. C. U. team in the lead, and the gun gave them the game at an opportune time. Realizing that the “Frogs” had a small lead very close to the end, the Aggies started a game fight to score. Sanger Clark had just finished a goal after the gun. Another game was lost by a second, and the Frogs had won again. The final Konecny, Guard score was 31-32. With revenge in their eyes for the defeat four days earlier at the hands of the Horned Frogs, the Aggies came back and plucked the tail feathers from the Rice Owls for the second time of the season. The victory was a very decisive one, and well earned. Baker and Clark were the big guns of the game for the Aggies. Clark’s scoring was stopped by his removal from the game on fouls , else the score would have probably been greater. As the game finished, the score board read 44-20. In their final game of the season, the Aggies journeyed to Austin to contest the “Steers” in their own lot. The “Longhorns” took the game after a hard fight with the Farmer lads. It was a battle royal, a blood battle between these two teams. The Texas team started their scoring early in the game and broke up the Aggies’ hope for victory. They secured revenge in no small quantity for the sensational victory the Aggies had achieved three weeks before in the Memorial Gym. The results of the game were Aggies 28, Texas 39. A V SI ¥ FRESHMEN BASKET BALL TEAM 1927 ' jX TEET the “makins” of a Championship Basket Ball team for Aggieland in the space of the -LviL next few seasons. Boys who were the high school stars of yesterday and the “fish” of today. All of these men were representative of the entire cl ass of ’30. They were proud of their class and carried their team to victory through sheer skill and fight. Some of these men were high school stars, some donned their basket ball uniform practically for the first time. All of them developed into stars under the capable and efficient tutelage of Coach Bender. The prowess of the team may be measured from the record of their games against three of the strongest high school basket ball teams in the state. The “fish” met and conquered the powerful Temple and Waco teams, and split a pair of games with the Austin high basket ball squad. In addition these men met the varsity almost every day in practice games, and time after time gave them very close games. In fact the “fish” battled the varsity much more effec¬ tively than some of the varsity teams from other schools in the conference. Here’s to the Fish of the class of ’30! When the last whistle rings out in the Memorial Gymnasium next year, may the championship go with it to these men who will have fought for it.

TRACK AND FIELD 1926 REVIEW OF THE SEASON RADUATION took its toll of the Aggie track and field stars of VJT the strong 1925 team and left only a few men for Coach Anderson to fashion a team, about. The failure of Webb, Aggie hurdler, and Brock, distance star, to return to college, cast a shadow over the prospects of a brilliant team. With the available material, Coach Andy began early spring training as soon as possible and, by the time of the spring Relay Carnival, had a very respectable group of promising young athletes ready for their assignments. These men opened the season with good showing against very strong competition. Their f rst action consisted in participation in the Relay Carnivals of Texas University and Rice Institute. Although the Aggies failed to place in the various events, they were not discouraged owing to the fact that the very best competition in the country had been their lot. The day following the Texas Relays, the Aggies entered the South¬ western Relays at Rice Institute and made a much better showing against practically the same competition as of the previous day. Coach Anderson A pre-season meet with the powerful Georgetown U. team resulted in a victory for the opponents. It was an honor to lose to a group of stars as was this team. The Aggies were easy victors in dual meets with S. M. U. and Baylor U., and easily disposed of the Rice Owls in a dual tilt. The powerful Texas U. Longhorn team was the first conference team to defeat the Aggies. The Texas stars were too much for the Farmer lads and handed them a bitter defeat in a close-fought contest in the Memorial Stadium. The Conference meet was another battle for supremacy between the rival schools and resulted in victory for the Longhorns, with the Aggies taking second place. Parker, of the Agg’es, set a new record in the quarter-mile in this meet and Dieterich hurled the javelin far enough to best the mark set by his brother, Art, ex-Aggie track star. Parker and Dieterich represented the Aggies at the National College track and field meet at Chicago. Both men made a good showing and were worthy of the assignment. E. Parker, of Fort Worth, was elected captain of the 1927 Aggie track and field team at a final meeting of the team. Aggieland is expecting much of “Crazy Boy” as a leader of the team. The Georgetown sprinters nose out the Aggies Page 263 llllv S: -i—. H TRACK AND FIELD 19 6 THE TEXAS RELAY CARNIVAL—THE SOUTHWESTERN RELAYS— THE GEORGETOWN U. MEET f ' TP ' HE Aggies suffered reverses in the iL first appearance of the squad against the strong competition fur¬ nished at the Texas Relay Carnival. In spite of all their efforts, the Farmer crew could not emerge victorious in any of the relays and emerged from the conflict without having taken a single place. One should take into consideration the fact that some of the best track and field talent in the country was entered in the many events and it was difficult for the best of them to carry off points. Con¬ sequently, the Aggies were not down hearted over the outcome but from their showing against the schools of their class, were filled with courage. At the Rice Relays, the Aggies seemed to be in better form, and turned in several thirds and fourths against practically the same competition of the day before. Dieterich got off several good heaves with the javelin and Capt. Elect Parker showed much promise as a quarter-miler by running four quarters in the two days, none slower than 50 seconds and one in as good as 49 seconds. The Aggies next engaged the powerful Georgetown U. in a dual meet on their own track. Although the invaders from the northland won the meet by a very decisive score, it did not tell of the game fight they received at the hands of the Farmers. Georgetown was represented on the track by such brilliant performers as Tony Plansky, decathelon king, E. Norton, renowned track and field man, and Haas, Olympic team hurdler, and an additional bunch of stars in other events. Big Ox Dieterich fooled the northern boys by tossing the javelin much farther than their best man was able to, and rung up the only first place that the Aggies registered during the fray. Parker put up a very game fight in the quarter and for an instant looked like the winner. The rest of the events were easily won by the Georgetown team. The Aggies lost a good chance for points owing to the fact that the distance events were not included in the meet owing t o the fact that the opponents had brought none of their distance men south. The Aggies generously con¬ ceded not to include the distance races for this reason. Captain Gillespie i A Parker leads ’em ini Page 264 Jl— m I ? ■ . f« x ' W TRACK AND FIELD 1926 THE AGGIE—S. M. U. DUAL MEET In their first conference meet of the season with the S. M. U. Ponies, the Farmers displayed a powerful track aggregation and completely smothered the Mustangs with a bunch of first and second places, resulting in a score of 803 2 to 30 . A heavy rain the night before completely sub¬ merged the track, making running slow and jumping almost impossible. The points for the jumping events were divided by agreement, the Ag¬ gies getting 11 points and the Ponies 13. Coach Andy’s proteges showered cinders in the faces of their opponents in every event with the exception of the hurdle races. The Farmers took ten first places and six second places with a tie for one second place. The Mustangs did not enter a relay team, but the Aggies ran the relay as an exhibition. Mule Wilson led the field in points, amassing a total of 10 points for high-point man in the meet. McKenzie, giant Aggie weight specialist and Bowen, Aggie distance star both turned in eight points and tied for second place. THE AGGIE—BAYLOR DUAL MEET In one of the closest meets that has ever taken place between the Aggies and Baylor Uni¬ versity Bruins, Coach Anderson’s thinly clads finally triumphed over their rivals by the score of 66 to 51. The results of the field events decided the meet as the rival runners had run up a neck and neck score. Taylor of Baylor hurled the discus about eight feet over the conference record, getting it out over 142 feet. Mule Wilson of the Aggies and Stovall of the Bears tied for high- point honors with totals of ten points each. Wilson won two first places in the dashes, while Stovall turned in two first places in the hurdle events. Coach Wolf’s Bruins showed themselves to be a very formidable team and gave the Aggies a very hot fight in alm.ost every event. Johnson McKenzie The Aggie Hurdlers step out Page 265 If A llONtJ ' UQDNl TRACK AND FIELD 1916 THE AGGIE—RICE DUAL MEET The Aggies again demonstrated their track and field potentialities when they took the Rice Owls into camp to the tune of 77 to 393 2- The meet was not at all as close as had been expected, as the Owl tribe cam.e to Aggieland with quite a bit of confi¬ dence. The Aggie cinder artists quickly demonstrated their superior¬ ity while the Farmer field men were taking points out of the reach of the feathered tribe. Stancliffe, Owl weight man, got off a good throw with the discus, bettering the con¬ ference record by about eight feet. He was the high-point man of the meet, amassing a total of 13 points for his team, by taking first place in both the shot-put and the discus throw, and second place in the javelin throw. Wooldridge of the Aggies rang up 11 points by taking second place in both dash events and first place in the broad jump. THE AGGIE—TEXAS UNIVERSITY DUAL MEET ■ wW Bowen, Distances Arnold, Quarter-mile r The Aggies suffered their first conference defeat at the hands of the powerful Longhorn team in Austin. Although the Farmer lads battled to the last ditch with the powerful foe, vic¬ tory was not to be theirs. With one of the most powerful teams in its history, the ancient rivals of the Aggies sent them to defeat. The final score showed the Longhorns to be the victors by the top-heavy score of 34 to 85. It was merely a case of a superior, better balanced team in triumph over a weaker adversary. Almost all of the Texas points were won only at a maximum of effort, and the Aggies came close second in every case. nsxx; •5 r If TRACK AND FIELD 1926 THE CONFERENCE MEET The conference track and field meet of the Southwestern Athletic Conference, 1926, was almost a dupli¬ cate of the meet of 1925, in which many new records were set. Athletes from the University of Texas, Baylor L T niversity, Arkansas University, Rice Institute, Southern Methodist Uni¬ versity, Texas Christian University, and Texas A. M., took part in the meet. In the meet, six new records were set, and several of the old rec- v ords equaled by the stalwart sons of the schools of the Southwest Con¬ ference. For the fourth consecutive sea¬ son, the Longhorn track and field team, gained enough points to take the m.eet, and with it the championship of the conference. The Longhorns were exceptionally strong in both the field events and the sprints. Texas also boasted very strong hurdlers. Most of the Longhorn points came from, the pole vault, the jumps, hurdles, and the sprints. The Aggies again demonstrated their superiority on the track from the middle distances on up. The Aggie middle-distance men, and distance performers rarely are surpassed as a group, in the conference. The Aggies started scoring points when Bowen took second place in the mile run against very strong competition. The race was very close between Bowen and Greer of Rice, but the judges awarded the decision to the latter. Ox Dieterich got off a dandy throw with the javelin, hurling it 193 feet, setting a new record in that event. Incidentally, the record is still in the family, the former record being held by Art. Dieterich, Aggie weight star of a few years past. Capt.-elect Parker showed strains of rabbit in his blood when he set a new record in the quarter- mile event, to add points to the Aggie total. Parker’s new time was 50.2 seconds. Capt. Gilles¬ pie galloped through the two-mile event to take first place. He was closely followed by his team-mate, Childers, who put up a very pretty fight the last lap to pass a large field of men. He fell exhausted at the tape but had won his fight well. Killian, Quarter and Relay Dieterich, Javelin Page 267 .i ' p TRACK AND FIELD 1926 THE CONFERENCE MEET —Continued The Aggie sprinters, Wilson and Woolridge, failed to place in the 100-yard dash, but Wilson came back and took first place in the 220-yard event. The dash races were very fast, and the competition keen. None of the contenders could summon speed enough to surpass or even equal the sprint records set the previous year by “Dusty” Poth. The chances are that his records will stand for years to come. McKenzie, giant Aggie weight star, heaved the shot far enough to take second place, and add more points to the Farmer list. Baldwin got behind the shot hard enough to set a new record of 46.6 feet. Baldwin’s giant frame coupled with his skill and activeness gave him a distinct advantage, and enabled him to achieve the distance at which the record now stands. Taylor, Baylor discus star, also gave future discus hurlers a mark to aspire to when he tossed the discus over six feet further than the old conference record. Capt. “Stud” Wright of the Longhorns also achieved a name for himself by .setting a new record in the high hurdles of 14.8 seconds. This triumph along with his record of last year in the low hurdles make Wright a dual record holder. The Aggie relay team took first place in the meet by clearly outclassing their nearest competitors. Led by their speedy anchor man, Parker, captain-elect, the team, consisting of Blair, Killian, and Arnold, showed the conference a clean pair of heels every time they took the baton in their hands. It was merely due to hard luck in a touch-off that these boys did not set a new record in the mile relay.

The prospects for future track and field teams of champion- ship calibre! That is what this group of men are qualified for. There is no doubt that there are men among this group that will set new records before their athletic careers are finished at Aggieland. The fish this year worked under difficulty owing to the fact that they did not meet any other teams of their calibre, confining all of their competitive efforts to train the Varsity. These men worked with the Varsity men of their events all through the season, benefiting themselves and the Varsity at the same time. There were men who were high school stars, and men who donned the spiked shoe for their first time who answered the call for “fish” track. Men who showed themselves to be outstanding, were awarded the Aggie Freshman Numeral. Those receiving numeral sweaters were: Sapp, Bartlet, Burgess, Moore, O’Neil, Graham, Briggs, Kroulic, Bisagno, Ashley and Lawrence.

Coach Rothgeb started the ball rolling as soon as the men returned from the Christmas holidays, making the work a little harder each day. The results speak for themselves. Compare the scores for this season with those of several seasons ago. You will have a faint idea of the value to the team that Coach Rothgeb has been. His men trained willingly and hard, and the games in won and lost column show this more clearly than words can tell. Claude Rothgeb, Coach The Aggie baseball for the past two years has been recuperating from a long sick spell. Every year in every way they get better and better. One slump at the beginning of the season is all that kept the championship away from Aggieland. The team had been playing brilliant early season ball against league and crack northern teams and when the conference season opened they had just entered into a hitting slump that spelled disaster. After the Aggies hit their stride, they were not stopped but once in the conference. The records speak for themselves. Many new men forged ahead to fill the places left vacant by graduation of the previous year. Some of the men even replaced men who had been stars the year before-- another good sign of improvement. The Aggies played a good schedule of games, losing four of their conference games and winning the rest. They took third place in the conference and formed the nucleus for a team that will either take the championship in 1927 or give the contenders lots of trouble. U 18 f) ? In their opening game of the 1926 season the Aggies gave the Waco Cubs of the Texas league a pretty fight, with the score resulting in a tie. The game went to eleven innings and was called on account of darkness, the score standing a 2-2 tie. The game was featured by a pitching duel between Preismuth and Graham for the leaguers, and Koerth and Royder for the Aggies. The results of the game were very gratifying, as it gave the Aggies an idea of their potential strength. The Aggies won the second game of the series with the Cubs in an interesting game. Wyman, sophomore hurler, showed a bunch of stuff and went the entire route for the Aggies. The score at the end of the con¬ flict was 2-1, favoring the Farmer lads, and they had earned the victory. The Aggies got to the league pitching sensation, Hudlin, for six hits, and secured a couple of singles off the offerings of Elliot. The Aggies scored their winning run in the fifth inning when Elliot balked with Wyman on third base. Both teams fielded in mid-season form. Koerth pitched good ball while in the box. Royder allowed the Cubs only four scattered hits in his four innings on the mound. In their third game of the season the Aggies journeyed to Waxahachie for a two-game series with the Trinity Tigers. The Faimers here lost their first game of the series due to the steady and masterful hurling of Haddock, who pitched a wonderful game for the Tigers. He struck out ten of the Aggie batsmen, and allowed but two hits. Hi Broiles for the Aggies went the round on the mound and allowed the Tigers only four scattered hits. He struck out eight men. In fact the game resolved itself into a pitchers’ duel, with the more experienced Haddock. Kyle, Captain Field Tucker, Capt.-elect Shortstop BASEBALL, 1512,6 REVIEW OF THE SEASON —Continued The fourth game of the season resulted in a victory for the Aggies. They came back with blood in their eyes to avenge the defeat suffered at the hands of the Tigers the previous day. The final score on the board after the battle had cleared was 6-4, with the Aggies on the big end of the horn. Koerth, on the mound for the Aggies, pitched good ball until the eighth inning when he was relieved by Royder, who finished the game in good style. The Aggie batsmen got going and three of them nicked the Trinity hurler for two hits each. McConnaughey, Schow and Tucker were the leaders in the hitting spree. In their next game, with the S. P. team of Ennis, the Aggies showed wonderful teamwork and hitting ability. They pulled out of their early season slump, and got to the offerings of the Railroaders for a 13-9 victory. Blount and McConnaughey, the first two m.en to face Taylor, the S. P. hurler, socked the ball over the fence for homers. Kyle hit a homer in the fifth with Baker on base, and later in the seventh, Blount parked another homer over the board wall, with “Nig” Scheunemann on base. The Railroaders used three pitchers in an effort to stem the Aggie hitting tide, with no avail. Wyman and Royder went the route for the Aggies and were never in danger, as the S. P. hits were well scattered. Returning to their own lot, the Aggies next engaged the Minnesota university baseball team in a two-game series. The first game resulted in a clean-cut victory for the Aggies. Hi Broiles, pitching for the Farm.er lads, allowed the pale-skinned youths from Minnesota but two scattered hits while he struck out twelve of the opponents. His pitching was a feature of the game. After the fifth inning not a single man reached first base for the northern lads. Schow and Tucker divided hitting honors, each getting a single and a double. Schow, Field Sikes, First Base “Bubba” Blount faces the box Page 275 QllSfif wyl ' BASES ALL ? 1512,6 REVIEW OF THE SEASON —Continued The Aggies opened a two-game series with the St. Paul team of the American Association with a 9-4 victory. The series was originally to be of three games, but rain prevented one of the contests being held and only two of the games were played. Bryant and Royder divided time on the mound for the Aggies and both pitched good ball. Holtzhauser and Schupp worked the mound trick for the Saints. Fast field¬ ing by the Aggie team kept the St. Paul score down. The Aggie infield retired their opponents three times by double plays. Blount and McConnaughey hit successive home runs in the ninth inning, sewing the game up for the Farmers. The Aggies defeated the St. Paul club the second time by a score of 3-1. Koerth, doing mound duty for the Aggies, pitched one of the prettiest ball games seen in a long time. He allowed the slugging northerners only two scattered hits and was never in danger. He was ably supported by the Aggie infield. Three walks and a double by Tucker gave the Aggies their winning run in the lucky seventh. It was a pretty game and the Aggie team showed mid- season form. The first conference game of the season was held on Kyle Field, the Aggies losing to the Baylor Bears in a slow featureless game marked by errors and poor playing on both sides. Shelton, pitching for Baylor, turned in a fair game, wile Broiles, for the Aggies, duplicated his per¬ formance. Steineker’s failure to catch a throw from Broiles after fielding a bunt, allowed two runners to cross the plate, the ball rolling into right field, allowing the Bears sufficient time to score. This error gave the Bears a lead that the Aggies were unable to overcome. This game marked a continuance of the Baylor jinx that hangs over Kyle Field, the Aggies having lost twelve consecutive baseball games to the Bruins on their own lot. Broiles, Field and Pitcher Page 276 Koerth puts one over BASEBALL, 192,6 REVIEW OF THE SEASON —Continued The Aggies were unable to hit in the pinches and lost their second conference game to the T. C. U. Horned Frogs, in Fort Worth. The score was 3-0. Koerth, for A. M. and H. Carson, for the Frogs, both allowed only six hits, but T. C. U. was able to do their hitting when in a scoring position, hence they carried away the honors for the day. The fielding of both the teams bordered on the sensational at times. The Aggies, as a team., were in a hitting slump. The mur- r derous row got in a few good hits, but they V were at inopportune times and were of no value to the team. Returning by the way of Waco from the Panther city, the Aggies stopped off Baker, Third long enough to hand the Baylor Bears a Hillin, Pitcher nice drubbing. The score for the conflict was 5-0. “Rosie” Hillin, just out of the hospital, pitched a good game. The work of the Aggies in the field was of a splendid nature and their support of Hillin was of the scintillating variety. Hard hitting and splendid base running by Schow was the offensive feature of the game. His single followed Blount’s triple in the first inning, to score the first run of the game. Schow stole second and came home on Kelly’s wild throw to third. He tripled in the eighth and again got a double in the ninth, scoring a couple of Aggie runs. In their next game the Farmers got after the Rice Owls and in the first two innings put across seven runs. The game was featureless for both sides after the Aggies had secured their lead. Hillin and Woods pitched good ball, both going in as relief twirlers in the fifth. Abies had opened the game, pitching for Rice, but was knocked to all corners of the lot. After Woods relieved him the game steadied down and the Aggies scored no more. P l Page 277 BASEBALL, 192,6 REVIEW OF THE SEASON —Continued In the second game with T. C. U., the Aggies started off nervously in the first inning, but steadied. In the second they started a hitting bee, and got to H. Carson for ten safe blows. The T. C. U. defense cracked several times during the encounter, and the Aggie hits were at opportune times. Koerth hurled steady ball for the Aggies and kept the hits well scattered. In the fifth, hits by Broiles, Baker and Kyle, and a sacrifice by Scheunemann, accounted for three runs. A triple by Sikes and another sacrifice gave another score t o the Farmers. The last run came in the sixth when Koerth singled and scored on Blount’s triple. Schuenemann got a walk and three sacri- Koerth, Pitcher £ ce y ts f our trips to the plate. Taking advantage of Arkansas’ misplays and bunching their hits in the fourth, the Aggies took the first game of a two-game series by a score of 12-0. Hillin was on the mound for the Aggies, yielding six scattered hits and getting eight strike-outs. Blount, Baker and Kyle led in the hitting spree. Hillin also got a pretty sacrifice hit in to score a coupe of Aggie runs. The game was on ice from the start for the Aggies. Hillin was never in danger, owing to his superb twirling and perfect support from the team. The Aggies took their second victory from the Arkansas Hogs” in almost as simple a manner as they had done the day previous. Bryant pitched the entire game for the Aggies and allowed only six scattered hits while he struck out nine men. Sensational support by the Aggie infield cut off several prospective Arkansas scores. In addition to pitching his own game, Bryant got a homer over the fence in the seventh. Baker got a couple of good hits and Broiles got a homer with two on in the fifth. The score was 7-2.

Mustangs a nice beating. Koerth started in the box but was replaced by Hillin in the second. Hillin only allowed the Ponies two scat¬ tered hits the rest of the game. From the second inning to the ninth, not a single S. M. U. man reached first base. Good V fielding and pitching on the part of the Aggies accounted for this. Schow and Broiles both hit homers in succession. The other runs were made in the seventh when Tucker walked and scored on Blount’s triple. Blount, likewise, scored when Schow singled. Broiles forced Schow to steal sec¬ ond, then stole second and scored on Baker’s single. Brazelton, Utility In their next game, the Aggies journeyed to Houston and took the Rice Owls into camp to the tune of 4-0. Hillin again pitched for the Aggies and allowed only two scattered hits. His team-mates got to Wood for five safe hits at opportune times. With one out in the first inning, Blount walked, Schow was safe at first on a fielder’s choice, and Broiles scored them all with a triple. Broiles then scored on Baker’s single. The other run resulted from Tucker’s triple and an error on the part of the Owl third baseman. The next game was held on Kyle Field, with the Centenary College team. Cotton Bryant shut the “Gents” out with a score of 2-1. The game was uneventful other than Bryant pitched a steady, heady game and kept the Aggies out of trouble. The contest otherwise was a listless affair. ibL ; ' 5 s ‘4 (y. ft II CM m Hr Tucker scores against Texas Page 279 f :■ ' 111 k L BASEBALL 192,6 REVIEW OF THE SEASON —Continued Returning to Kyle Field, the Aggies met and defeated the S. M. U. Mustangs in an extra period contest. Both teams played nip and tuck for nine innings with the score tied. In the tenth inning the Aggies walked a man and then scored him. by a safe hit. Baker brought in the tying score, giving the Aggies the contest. Koerth pitched good ball for the Farmers while in the box. S. M. U. made several desperate efforts to put across a winning run but with little success, as the Aggie inf eld always held at the critical time. The Aggies next triumphed over the Centenary “Gents” for the second tim.e to the score of 8-2. Cotton Bryant went the route for the victors and the game was the Aggies’ from the start. Not once did the visitors threaten to overcome the Aggie lead. The game, for this reason, was devoid of thrills. The first game with Texas University was a hard-fought contest on Kyle Field, the visitors taking the long end of a 7-6 score. The game was marred with errors and it was only through strategy that Dischs’ men took the contest. They played for a bunt at the right time and killed the Aggies’ best chance to beat the visitors. The second game, held at Austin, and the concluding game for the season, was a different tale. The Aggies played rings around the Texas team, beating them in an old-fashioned licking manner. Hillin pitched a perfect game of ball and on top of that won his own game, or rather assisted by parkin a pretty homer over the fence. Punk Baker also hammered the pill over the fence for a tally. When the smoke of battle had cleared away and the Aggies had finished their work¬ out, the score stood 9-1, favoring the Aggies. It was a nasty blow to deal the much-touted Longhorns, especially on their own lot, but the ole Aggie fight was too much for the Steers, and the Orange color did not please the eyes of the Farmer lads.

A slugging bunch, and a group of fielders par excellence went to make up this team. They did not get to measure their ability very much against teams of their own class in experience. They confined their efforts to trimming a few of the best high school teams in the state and the strong Allen Academy team of Bryan. In trying to mention outstanding men one comes against a brick wall. This is almost an impossibility confronted with the group of stars that this team represents. It would be much better to postpone judgment until these men have a chance upon the varsity team where they can truly show their “stuff.” To Coach Bender is due much credit in developing this bunch of men into the team they have made. A good coach’s duty is to polish up the individual brilliance of those under him, and to correct the weaknesses of the same man. This, Coach Bender seems to have done with all his teams this year.

CROSS-COUNTRY, 1926 TEXAS UNIVERSITY DUAL MEET A FTER having lost their dual meets with the Longhorns for the past two seasons, the Aggie hill and dalers showed a strain of rabbit blood in their system. In the first meet of the season with the Texas LL harriers, the Aggie team triumphed with ease over their ancient rivals. The meet was held over the Aggie course, a distance of about four miles, and first place was in good time. Miller of the Longhorns was the first man to breast the tape and did so in tw T enty-one minutes, six seconds. He w ' as strong and consistent throughout the entire gruelling contest, finishing with a good sprint which enabled him to barely nose out Jack Haile, stellar little Aggie runner. Haile’s race w as a steady, consistent one, and the Longhorns barely secured first place over his efforts. The rest of the Aggies bunched themselves in such a w r ay that they finished in rapid succession to take the meet. Avila, freshman find, was the second Aggie to cross the line, taking third place. Moore and Leffingwell placed fifth and sixth, respectively, for the Aggies, with Capt. Crump close on their heels. There w r as a very short interval of time between the first and seventh man. The rest of the partici¬ pants finished more or less singly. Essary of the Aggies finished tenth; Munn, also of the Aggies, finished thirteenth. The Aggies showed the results of team work in the manner in which they bunched them¬ selves to win the meet. The entire race w ' as hard fought, the lead changing several times. This was the first collegiate competition for the Aggies for the season. The Longhorns had previously defeated the S. M. U. Ponies, the week before, over the Longhorn course in Austin. Capt. Crump •i — f j ' [ t T i f y T X • ‘ 1 1 iT ! : . --rJ Cby V y S y CROSS-COUNTRY, 1926 RICE INSTITUTE DUAL MEET In their second meet of the season, the Texas Aggie Cross- Country team emerged victorious in the dual meet with Rice Insti¬ tute. The contest was held over the Aggie course, the finish line being on Kyle Field, coming just before the Aggie-Owl football game. Brunson, national champion in the high school mile and half-mile two years ago, was the first man to cross the tape, and did so in twenty-two minutes, twenty-three seconds. He was closely followed by Haile of the Aggies and Chitwood of Rice. Haile nosed out his rival by about one yard in a splendid spurt at the finish. Childers, Avila, Leffingwell and Crump finished next for the Aggies. Madden, Rice middle distance star, was next in line, followed by McCamey of Rice, Moore and Busby of A. and M. Greer of Rice was the next and last man in. The runners were retarded by a very strong wind which helped much to add to the time of the race. % y - The Owls showed much improvement over last season in their hilders efforts to win. Last season the Aggies walked away with the dual meet at Houston putting five men in ahead of the first Rice man, thus making a perfect score against their competitors. This year the Owls took first place them¬ selves and for a while it seemed that they would win the meet. The Aggies again showed their uncanny skill in bunching enough men in the right place to win the meet. The Aggie team this year seemed to be a group of steady plugging third and fourth men, and no individual performers to boast of with the exception of Haile. II kx N. c L L CROSS-COUNTRY, THE CONFERENCE MEET The Conference meet was held over the five-mile course of the Texas Aggies. Four team.s of the southwest conference were represented, the teams being Rice Institute, Texas A. and M., Texas University, and S. M. U., and placed in meet as listed. The Rice Owls sewed the meet up. When they bunched enough men in the first eight to finish to overcome the handicap of their slower team-mates who placed further down the line. Brunson, fleet-footed Rice harrier, was the first man to cross the line, closely pressed by his team-mate, Chitwood. The time in which he negotiated the distance was considerably more than his previous time made over the same course the week previous. The slow ' time m.ade in the meet was due both to a heavy rain that had fallen the night and morning previous. The next three men to win conference places in the meet by finishing among the first five men were Hooper of S. M. U., McKamey of Rice, and Connor of Texas University. Avila of the Aggies was the first Aggie to negotiate the distance, and was closely followed by Crump, also of the Aggies. Madden was the fourth Rice runner to finish, and preceded Miller of Texas University at a short distance. Childers of the Aggies next crossed the line followed in line by Leffingwell, Aggies; Haile, Aggies; Slaughter, Texas; and Greer of Rice. Greer was the fifth man to finish for Rice, and his taking fourteenth place gave the meet to the Institute runners. Jack Haile, stellar Aggie distance man, was not up to form in the meet owing to illness. The Aggies lost their most important man when he was forced to drop back in the meet. In a previous dual meet with the Owls, Haile pressed Brunson hard at the finish and took second place to him only. The mud and wind also acted as a handicap to the Hill and Dale athletes.

The encounter was an interesting one, even though the Aggies succeeded in taking only one of the singles matches. Ross was the only Aggie to win in the meet, taking his singles from Meroney, Baylor net star. McCabe lost his singles match to Williamson, although the tall Aggie gave him a fight for honors. Armstrong likewise took more of the points for Baylor by beating out McCabe in his second singles event for the day. Haines took the next singles for Baylor when he took Whitehurst into camp in the next singles event. Davis of the Aggies lost his singles event to Powers of Baylor as the concluding event for the meet. In the doubles events of the meet Ross and Williamson for the Aggies lost the first event to the Baylor netters. Their opponents for the doubles were Powers and Meroney. The Baylor netters barely nosed out the Aggies in this event. In the second doubles match for the day, Whitehurst and Davis lost to Powers and Meroney in another closely fought event. --------- ijONdH®N| TENNIS, THE T. C. U. DUAL MEET In their fourth meet of the season, the Aggies lost to the T. C. U. Horned Frog net squad 4-2. The meet was an interesting encounter, and for the first time in the season the Aggies seemed to have found their stride. Although they lost the meet, the Aggies did so to a superior team of more experienced men, and in loosing, they lost gamely. In the first singles, McCabe lost his match to Busch of the Frogs. The match was a close one and the advantage of the wind gave the T. C. U. man the match. Ross won the next singles event from Rossler. This was another hard fought match, and Ross encountered much difficulty in defeating his opponent. In the next singles event, Davis of the Aggies lost his event to Evans, while Whitehurst was winning his singles match from Busch. The Horned Frogs took both of the doubles, and the meet finished with the Frogs the victors of the day. The Aggie doubles pairing for the first event were McCabe and William¬ son, and the second event was represented by Whitehurst and Davis. wir r ) L- lOsJfflIQRN TENNIS, THE TEXAS UNIVERSITY DUAL MEET In their fnal dual meet of the season, the Aggie net squad lost to the powerful Longhorn racket wielders in the Capital city. The Aggie netters lost both of their doubles matches to the Steers, and succeeded in taking one of the singles matches. Ross in a hard-fought match took his singles event. The rest of the individual meetings went to the Longhorns. Although the members of the team fought hard to take their contests, the opponents were too much for them both in experience and in ability, and the final show of points gave the Longhorns the meet by the score of 5-1. In passing, it might be well to say that the Tennis team has worked under a handicap. The sport is not recognized as it should be at our school, owing to the fact that there are too many other forms of sport that are more appealing to the average student. Then, too, the team has been under a handicap heretofore in the condition of the courts. With the addition last summer of new courts, and the present plans for four new cement courts, more men will be enabled to try-out for the team, and thus better men be found. The college has available in Coach Thomas, an excellent tennis instructor and coach. The rise of enthusiasm for the sport the past few years among the students, and the more complete recognition by the athletic department, is mainly his handiwork. Anderson SSPWIlM-9 I: 7 . GOLF, S ' I •L : - THE TEXAS AGGIE GOLF TEAM f’fP ' HE unprecedented interest in golf as a sport worthy of collegiate competition has taken ih full sway in the Southwest Conference. For several years the value of the game had been known to an increasing few, but only recently the addition of golf to the sport calendar of the large northern universities made the conference sit up and take notice. Since the addition of the game to the southwest sports calendar, interest in the game has spread like wildfire. The men who take part in the sport in Aggieland are handicapped in that the nearest golf course is nearly three m.iles distant from, the campus, and its availability for practice is limited. The Aggies went into the thing heart and soul, and looked upon their practice as religiously as the average athlete in any other sport. Several golfers worthy of note have been developed in consequence of the effort and time the men put to their assignment. Chief among the foremost men on the squad is Brehmer, who went into the conference semi-finals in the conference meet; Landon, tall west Texas product, who plays wonderful golf, and Nickelson, who is very adept at getting around the average course usually with a low score. Schweirs, James and Smith make up the rest of the squad. Coach Bible acts both as coach of the team and as the manager. D. X. is quite a golfer himself, and has a knack of imparting his knowledge to would-be aspirants, such that finished golfers result in only a short time. A minor sport letter is awarded to any man who goes into either the finals or the semi-finals of the conference meet. At the present, Brehmer is the first and only letter man in golf, but the prospects for new men earning their letters this spring is bright. Schweirs Brehmer James Smith Landon it m ji , m A f ivj iy fi -p: 5r Page 293 Ojqs ro AGGIE POLO TEAM A LTHOUGH Polo is not a recognized sport among the colleges of the southwestern conference, AL nevertheless interest in it has grown by leaps and bounds at A. M. College. The polo team is sponsored by the Cavalry unit of the R. O. T. C., and several outside contests are engaged in during the regular session. The drill field is the scene of a hot contest almost any e ening the weather permits. Several polo players of note have been brought forth through the efforts of Capt. Cheshire who is coach of the team. Several games with out-of-town teams were held the past fall in which the Aggies made a remarkable showing against the better mounted and more experienced team of the Dallas Saddle and Bridle Club. The cadets made the Dallas team fight from the start to the finish in order to triumph over them. With the deep interest being shown by the coach and men on the team, there doubtless will be more chances for the men to show their wares against more teams next year in matched contests. Aggie Polo Team 1927 Luckenbach, Oakes, Davis, Floyd, Broad, Amend, Capt. Cheshire -.r. £ , v V W f INTRAMURAL SPORTS INTRAMURAL ATHLETICS riTH the assumption of duties of head of the department of intramural athletics the past v ' v year by Mr. Penberthy, things began to hum like a well oiled machine. Penny took things over and started them to rolling with a zip. New interest in intramural sports was evinced. The intramural athletic board immediately got busy planning the year s activities soon after school opened for the fall term and things started taking definite shape with the beginning of the basket ball season. Since then all through the year there was a part of the program on at all tim.es. .• The value of intramural athletics cannot be too strongly emphasized. They form a means whereby anyone or everyone may take part in his favorite sport. They offer a good means of exercise to the average student, and often inspire men to go into collegiate athletics that would otherwise never be found. Every year many new stars come up through the intramural ranks to fill places on the varsity teams. Some of Aggieland’s foremost athletes were uncovered through the agency of this branch. We are told that the intramural program is yet an infant. With the addition of more equipment and facilities, one should soon see a giant grow from this infant. W hat an important- giant this will be to Aggieland. It means that the school will be able to turn out better men physically than ever before, and, at the same time, strengthen its varsity teams to a great extent. HU INTRAMURAL FOOTBALL CHAMPIONS vNCE m.ore the intramural football season has passed, and once more the Cavalry team has taken the championship away from the other contenders. The season was a hectic one. It was difficult to tell at the middle of the season who the best prospects for the championship would be. The horsemen played an excellent brand of football all through the season, and deserved to win. In addition, they worked hard and long to repeat their triumph of the season of ' 25. The last game of the season resulted in a tie with the strong Artillery team, but due to previous victories the troopers had tucked away enough points to annex the title by virtue of this tie. For winning the intramural championship, the men composing the winning team received medals from the Athletic Department. Men composing the team are: V p Top row —Corman, Hudson, Theuman, Stransky Second row —Nexsnau, Vandervoort, Stevens, Grant, Hooe, Asbury, Gerand Third row —Mosher, Hunt, coach; Kleber, Patton, Owens, Cart.

After a hard season s fight, the finals were held between the first battalion upperclassmen, and the first battalion freshmen. The “Fish” were victors in the fray, and won the medals which are annually presented by the athletic department to the winning team. In winning this championship, the freshmen demonstrated the fact that the team that won the championship the past season was not in their class. The team representing the upperclassmen was identically the same team that last year won the championship as first battalion “freshmen.” t] V Top row- —Tucker, Coach; Coleman, Barron, Roensch, Manager Bottom row —Willoughby, Parker, Lockett Page 298 INTRAMURAL ATHLETICS TENNIS CHAMPIONS The annual tennis tournament sponsored by the department of Intramural Athletics resulted in a pleasant surprise for the Department. The number of men that reported for the tournament was very gratifying, and the interest with which the man fought for the cham¬ pionship honor was very commendable. As a result of the tournament, Hylan was crowned the singles champion after playing a wonderful brand of tennis to go into the semi-hnals, and the finals. Hylan is a sophomore student in the College, and is an all-around athlete, although small in stature. Hylan is likewise a basket ball player of note, and also takes part in track and baseball. He received a medal as a result of his triumph. Hylan represented the First Battalion. Hylan, Singles The doubles championship of the season of 1926 was won by a team of two men, Keene and Mitchell, both four-year students and members of the Aggie band. These two men played together like “Siamese twins” and won the event with ease. Both men are finished tennis players, and as a result of winning the championship, they were awarded the tennis doubles participant medals presented each year by the Depart¬ ment of Intramural Athletics.

The “Wagon Soldiers” took the meet easily. Killian, brother of the famous “Eoc” Killian, stellar Aggie track star, was the first man to cross the tape in the four-mile event and did so in remarkably good time. Killian, like his famous brother, w r as a high school star on the cinder path, and will benefit the Aggies greatly. Schumaker was the next Artilleryman to finish. He took third place in the event, and did so in good time, not far behind the winner of first place. Bradley came in next for the Artillerymen, followed by Vertrees and Duke, making the total of five men to finish for the Artillery. The composite score of these first five men was enough to cop the meet from the other contenders for the honor. As a result of winning this meet, the men were awarded medals by the athletic department, and Coaches Moore and Haile received sweaters. 5 ,®. ■ ' AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING SOCIETY Debnam, M.

W Page 374 w n DEDICATION A S all good books must have a dedication, yes, even so must Ye Okie College Life section be given over to the unfailing devotion of two characters that even Dickens overlooked. Then, surely we cannot go wrong by choosing two men who submit their services to keep us neat and to keep us regulation. It was not easy for the Staff to secure the pictures of these two men; in fact, editors, for the past fifteen years, have worked diligently with this in view only to come up missing in the end. So it is with great pride and deliberation that we put these veterans in the limelight. Twelve or fifteen years later when a little blue-eyed, golden-haired lad crawls into your lap with this Longhorn and exclaims: “Daddy, didn’t Dean Bolton and Colonel Turner look funny in your day?” You will have to answer him: “Son, that’s not Dean Bolton and Colonel Turner; one is the college tailor who handles a needle like Cicero handles words, the other a devotee of Mars, who has signed more re-enlistments than Capt. Montgomery has pay-rolls.” Two thousand years ago Aesop said: “Those who are axed most are liked best.” So all through these pages, it is hoped that those who have received their portion and better of the axe will not take out their wrath upon the editor of this section until he has had time to secure his sheepskin and make a flying leap at the end of a homeward-bound train.

Page 379 SENIOR CLASS HISTORY On September 16, 1923, several trains ran into college, but luckily there was no serious damage except that about seven hundred energetic, hne-look.ing freshmen more or less fell out. This was a great dav for A. and M., so the band was out to meet these fsh and the seniors carried all their luggage to the various halls. All went well until the f rst Saturday night. I his was the night of the Fish party and of the annual Sophomore-Fish battle. 1 he battle started after the party and it was some hard fight. After an hour oi so the fish were overcome and were forced to retire orderly to various trees, barns and potato fields around college for the night. The next night of importance was college night. Flere the fish took an active lead and later decided to move the w r ater tower. This was never done, but a large 27 w as painted thereon, and to this day it has remained above all other numerals. The results of this was lots of cash, for the fish deserved it. This also brought to light such men as the Glitsch brothers, Sam Brewster, “Major” Fleming and Jonnie Crump, so they were immediately made corporals or higher. However all got the big head and were busted. The fish also made a big hit in Bryan society and in fact nearly rushed the fair Bryanites off their feet. Noted sheiks of those days and the present were “Zookie” Zapp, Landon (also golf shark), “Slop Jar” Frels and T. Gilmore Harris. This couldn’t go on forever, so the fish became sophomores. It was then that L. O. Buchanan and Umlang opened their famous beer resort on the Brazos and served free beer to the faculty and students. This was also the era of fish tank baths and the time for changing from Engineering to Ag. or Industrial Education. Then this same bunch became Juniors, but that meant very little until summer camp, which brought forward such military men as “Black Eye” Company Townsend, Mervin Starnes and Capt. Montgomery. After such a flying start nothing could hold the class of ’27 dming their senior year, during which many noted accomplishments w ' ere achieved. The Senior Class will be noted in the history of A. and M. for the following reasons: The class didn’t like the hazing conditions so new dormitories were built. Each room, was equipped with lounge chairs, rugs, curtains, private baths, and mahogany tables. Also meals were served in bed during this time. Another thing was the noted change in the famous Cheatum Store, Inc. This was put on a real no profit basis by the Seniors and Pete Cashell was elected to hold Cheatum’s job. The Seniors also did creditibly well in backing the college. All of them went to Chapel every Sunday and never went to Bryan unless they rode the Bryan-College trolley. They also passed “Fish” Chem to a man. They put a sand pile on each side of the S. P. track in Dallas so passengers could get off from either side. Further the fad of riding bicycles was started and the steps had to be changed to accommodate the traffic, and the O. D. had to have an O. G. to aid in traffic direction. As all good things must pass, yea, even this famous class must go, but not until three rousing cheers are given for “Bull Ring” Turner and Uncle Dan Jackson.

Dear Bill: It is with great pleasure that we, the jury, composed of six slimy Signal Corps Fish, announce the most beautiful woman and favorite tea hound of the fair realm of Aggieland. We chose as the fairest of maidens Miss Olefine Olsen, a native of this country, born in Copenhagen, Sweden. It was with greatest difficulty that we discriminated between Miss Olefine and Prexy’s cook. However, Miss Olsen’s lines are like unto those of the chassis of Cap Watkins’ truck while her teeth are wonderous to behold, both of them. Her voice is so mellow that it’s rotten and the ear that she hears with resembles a cauliflower. Oh, Miss Olsen is indeed a beauty. She has taken first prizes all over the country and in the city too. But now we must turn to a sterner sex. Mr. Curry combines all that is good and lots that is not good. Nevertheless, Apollo in all his glory could not rival our friend and playmate, George Washington Curry. His teeth are like the stars; they come out at night. George has stood all sorts of tests and he is to woman what cheese is to a mouse. Standing here in disguise as a gentleman, he is ready to start on one of his religious cam¬ paigns. He stands for more and better beer and is the author of such books as “Beer Making in the Home” and “A Rolling Stone is Worth Two in the Bush.” Finally, the jury has selected this couple to represent the College socially because of their dependability and sex appeal. It is hoped that no one shall contest our judgment. Very truly yours, The Fish Jury. Page 383 The Fish Jury .ojvv .-.jw •. •• - wS j OnO ?i inviiRfirnDV ' x m THE DAILY BULLETIN VOL.

The Choral Club is a vital cog in all campus activities. The club sings at all picture shows and at chapel on Sundays. Its charter members in the early days of A. and M. were such heads as Dean Puryear Miss Hillyer, “Fuzzy” Fer- mier, “Tubby” Hughes, and Tommy Harrington. With such men as these sponsoring this organization, nothing but progress can be expected of it in the future. “THE DRAMATIC CLUB’ the “Choral Club,’ Dramatic Club. Organized in the same year as the Choral Club was for II ill Afc practically the same purpose. These two clubs have been rivals since the early days of the college. The charter members of the Dramatic Club are: Cap. Watkins, Cheatum, Uncle Dan Jackson, Satch Hylan and Captain Bessie. Today the chief activ¬ ities of the Dramatic Club consists in staging little plays for the entertainment of the Faculty while the corps is at drill.

R. A. Dick” Goodson, popularly known around the campus as Rubber Gums” is the pride of East Texas. He came to us from Jacksonville. Dick’s college career shows that he works hard to keep out of work and that he shaves on such occasions as hog killings, that he is a scream with the ladies, and that he and Mr. Weaver in the A. A. Department are big buddies. We hope that Dick doesn’t go back to Jacksonville. Page 389 Kfj i) “What is so rare as a day in June ” sings the poet, and the Aggie answers: “Recall from drill.” Spring is here surrounding us in her various forms. Once more vegetation begins to creep out of the earth, and soon we shall have fresh vegetables in the mess hall. Birds twit¬ ter gaily outside the English section room and every Aggie heart is glad in anticipation of the continuation of reveille exercises. No more shall the smoke roll black and heavy from the stack of the power house and ere long we shall shave and bathe in cold water. Spring is glorious! The postoffice is haunted daily with love-sick Romeos awaiting pas¬ sionate missives from their respective Juliets, and the sale of stamps rises steadily. The young ladies of the campus now desert Casey’s to partake of their noon sandwich beneath the trees in front of the main building and tantalize the handsome and love-sick seniors who walk de¬ spondently about with mingled thoughts of R. V. and matrimony. The soft breeze blows from the south, suggestive of the cavalry stables and the dairy barns. Life is astir from its winter’s sleep. Yes, indeed, spring has come to Aggieland.

However, in this case it is the Editor’s privilege to slip one in edgeways and somewhat hastily, just before the last few pages go to press, thus marking the completion of hours of toil that were a pleasure rather than a burden. The faithful co-operation of a diligent staff facilitated such smooth operation that the publication of the 1927 Longhorn was a joy. That state¬ ment, gentle reader, is straight from the shoulder. The Editors have endeavored in the gathering of material for this year¬ book to present the same old stuff in a little different way, from a little different angle; but never losing sight of the object to create a pictorial record that will serve as a reminder of Aggieland when details fade and there remains only faint impressions. If the Longhorn recalls to memory these little details and happenings of this past college year, our aim has been realized. The student body sits in judgment. It is the fond hope of the Staff that the 1927 Longhorn will grow “sweeter as the years roll by” to the hearts of all Aggies. The Editor assumes no responsibility for what appears in the College Life section. It is entirely the College Life Editor’s work and he alone is account¬ able for the subject-content thereof, persisting as he did to fill his section with what he so desired in spite of the Editor’s entreaties. Here is the book—do not formulate an opinion as to its merits and “de¬ merits” after one hurried glance through its pages, but rather examine it leisurely, page by page, and then pass judgment on this—the 1927 Longhorn. —O.

A scientific victory which makes an important contribution to driving pleasure and economical operation of the automobile. It has been made possible in commercial quantities through the Holmes-Manley Process, owned and controlled by The Texas Company, representing an investment of millions of dollars and many years’ efforts of refinery experts. Why it is Better: 1. Distillation tests prove it. 2. It is uniform in quality. 3. Vaporizes where other gasolines only atomize. 4. It is a dry gas instead of a wet gas. 5. Combines desirable qualities of all gasolines in one. What it Does: 1. Gives you a quick start. 2. Gives you a quicker pick-up. 3. Gives you more miles per gallon. 4. Gives you relief from carbon or spark knock. 5. Gives you better lubrication. Stop at the first Texaco pump you see. Fill with New and Better Texaco Gasoline—and Texaco Motor Oil, the clean, clear, golden motor oil, known everywhere for its quality and full body. You will note with pleasure the improved operation and condition of your engine. THE TEXAS COMPANY AGENTS EVERYWHERE Page 419 IS YOUR CAR A GLUTTON FOR GAS? If so, just fill up her tank with Humble Ethyl Gasoline— then your troubles with the costly gas eater will be over. She’ll have a square meal that’ll put pep, pugnacity and get-up-and-get-there into her—with no strain on your pocketbook, or your “cussin’ ” capacity. This new motor fuel “knocks out the knocks.” You can take the steepest hills in high, or crawl along in a traffic jam, and then—without a knock or a stall—pick up and shoot out ahead of the crowd (provided they are not using Humble Ethyl, too). Less gear shifting, more power, smoother running. Humble Ethyl Gasoline turns carbon into power. It harnesses the Carbon Kids, and puts them to pulling in¬ stead of stalling. Costs only 3c a gallon more than ordi¬ nary gasoline—and worth every cent of it. You can get it wherever you see the Humble Signs. It’s great stuff! Try it. :::::::::: : : Humble Oil Refining Company HUMBLE MOTOR PRODUCTS Humble Gasoline Humble Ethyl Gasoline Humble T. D.

' CRAFTSMANSHIP “pRIDE of quality,” it has been said, “is the stimulus of true craftsmanship.” Pride of quality prompted the International Ce¬ ment Corporation to perfect the famous International “Wet Blend¬ ing” process of manufacture—to make this extra effort to insure the super quality of Lone Star Cement. The International Wet Blending Process develops a new degree of uniformity, made possible by the exact chemical control which it affords. 350 pounds of water are evaporated for every barrel of Lone Star cement made by this process. This means that the mills of the International Sys¬ tem evaporate 50,- 000,000 gallons of water daily. The extra fuel required to evaporate this quantity of water would gener¬ ate enough electricity to light the homes of one million people. The added cost is offset by the confidence of the user in Lone Star Cement; for the International Wet Blending Process results in a super¬ quality cement by (1) assuring a perfect mechanical mixture of ex¬ treme intimacy; (2) affording abso¬ lute uniformity, and (3) making possible complete control of chemi¬ cal content. It is pride of quality which prompts those in charge of every mill in the International System to adhere to this standard, not just today or tomorrow, but al¬ ways, no matter what manufactur¬ ing expediency might dictate.

Long an exclusively agricultural State, Texas has stepped out to build within her borders industries suited to her resources—mineral and agricultural—in order that the growth of the last decade may go forward with even greater momentum. The Texas Power Light Company be¬ lieves that Texas is to develop rapidly and that the future prosperity of Texas lies in the development of cotton textile mills and other industries. This company is always in readiness to assist in the growth of towns and cities of which it is a part. The latest addition to the power sytem of this company is the Trinidad generating sta¬ tion, on the banks of the Trinity River in Henderson county, which is shown in the accompanying illustration. The two smoke stacks reach 390 feet in the air, the highest in the Southwest. This power plant and other plants in the Texas Power Light Company electric transmission system were built to provide the kind of service which large industrial customers demand, and also supply home and business houses with an abundance of electric energy.

It is not strange that many Cadets of yesterday are finding worth-while careers directing this chorus which, interpreted, means the world is progressing and becoming every day a better place in which to live.
