Throughout the division pages is woven, in chronological order, a review of the wars of the United States. This theme was selected in an effort to express an appreciation to those who have so dearly paid for our freedom, and main¬ tained it. Book I, “Administration,” illustrates the first of our international conflicts, the historic Revolutionary War. The War of 1812 is pictured in Book II, “Classes;” the Mexican War in Book III, 1 ‘Activities’ the Civil War in Book IV, “Military;” the Spanish-American War in Book V, “Ac¬ tivities. ’’ Book VI, ‘‘Athletics,” and Book VII, “Organizations,” bring to us realistic memories of the recent World War.

T, TITH the publication of the 1928 annual, the Senior Class will put in record V v form a part of the history of its contribution to the college, which in turn will constitute a part of the history of the institution. Through the years you have spent at A. and M. College you have been preparing yourselves to live con¬ structively. The days spent here have been full of activities, of joys, disappointments, and successes. Your future success may be greatly enlarged if you continue to build upon the foundations you have laid during your undergraduate experiences; and it will be worth your while to ever keep bright the working tools you have acquired. No man is ever completely educated, and the processes of education should con¬ tinue through one’s entire lifetime. By studious application you may continue to grow mentally, and it is only through this process that one may hope to attain the highest possible levels. This Longhorn will be of deeper interest to you each succeeding year, for you will want to turn to its pages to renew college-day acquaintances and review college- life experiences. As you go from these walls, you go with the best wishes of your Faculty, and with the assurance of our confidence in your capacity to function efficiently in the social and economic order. Your successes will be of interest to us, and our sincere hope is that each member of the Class of ’28 may make a man’s contribution to the welfare of his State and Nation. T. 0. Walton.

Four if or five times each year the Board meets to discuss and decide upon matters which involve the general policies of the College. With its approval the President, the Administrative Council, and the Executive Board manage the affairs of the institution and its branches. Such matters as the purchase of property and the location of new buildings must meet the approval of the Board. The Board is charged with the fixing of salary scales. All appointments must meet with its sanction. One of its foremost functions is the submission of the budget request of the College to the State Legislature.

White, Bailey Page 18 The Commandant Hl HE Commandant is the branch of the administrative machinery of the College which is probably closer in touch with the individual student than any other. To a great extent the proper functioning of the disciplinary routine of the entire student body rests with the Commandant’s Office. Not only are the cadets subject to its action, but the non-military students also feel its hand. All of the demerit system of discipline is handled through the Commandant’s Office. Thus the Commandant’s Office con¬ ducts not only a function of the military part of the College, but co-operates with the academic division as well, which has proven to be a very effective arrangement. The Commandant is not only at the head of the routine disciplinary office of the College, but he is the head of the Depart¬ ment of Military Science and Tactics. This is one of the three largest departments of the College, at times having approxi¬ mately 2,000 students under its instruction. This department is not only charged with the instruction in Military Science and Tactics, but also with the organization of the Cadet Corps and the selection of the cadet officers and noncommissioned officers who are appointed on the recommendation of the Professor of Military Science and Tactics and with the approval of the President of the College. Courses are given in Infantry, Cavalry, Field Artillery, Air Corps and Signal Corps, each of which, when successfully completed and one summer camp attended, leads to a commission as a second lieutenant in the Officers’ Reserve Corps of the branch selected by the cadet. This latter appointment is contingent upon the student’s graduation from the College. Each of the branches has its quota of commissioned and noncommissioned instructors from the regular army. For the purposes of instruction and administration the Cadet Corps is divided into an Infantry Regiment, a Cavalry Squadron, a Field Artillery Battalion, an Air Corps Squadron and a Signal Corps Battal ion, each of which is commanded and officered by cadet officers. The cadet officers are held responsible to a great degree for the discipline and instruction of the cadets during the military training period. The military instruction at A. and M. College is given a very high rating by the War Depart¬ ment, this institution having been found worthy of the award of “The Distinguished Rating” each year since 1910. The officers of the department as well as the Cadet Corps take a great deal of pride in the high standard attained and are constantly attempting to improve it. The rating of the college by the War Department is made on a competitive basis. Competition among the colleges of the country is getting stronger each year; so that it is a task of increasing difficulty which requires the best co-operation of the cadets and army officers to retain the high rating held by the College in the past.

Dean f ' fP ' HE Graduate School was established in 1924. Prior to that time graduate work was ad- ministered by the General Faculty, acting through a committee on graduate st udies. The faculty of the Graduate School consists of various members of the teaching staff and of the staff of the Agricultural Experiment Station determined by the General Faculty, and has juris¬ diction over all matters relating to graduate work. The principal aim of graduate study is the development of the power of independent work and the promotion of the spirit of research. Each candidate for a degree is expected to have a wide knowledge of his subject and of related fields of work; the graduate student is not expected to get from lecture and laboratory courses all the knowledge and training necessary to meet the requirements for his degree. The completion of an approved course of study in the graduate school leads to the degree of Master of Science. Professional degrees in engineering—Ghemical Engineer, Civil Engineer, Electrical Engineer, Mechanical Engineer—are offered on the basis of acceptable professional experience, a thesis, and an examination. The Master’s degree denotes that attainment which a student of good native ability, who has received an appropriate bachelor’s degree, may reasonably expect to attain in one year of entire and successful devotion to advanced studies, with adequate facilities and under competent direction. The courses of study leading to this degree do not make research the chief considera¬ tion, but are intended to serve as an introduction to the methods and discipline of research. The College offers annually a limited number of graduate scholarships and of graduate fellowships. An applicant for a scholarship or a fellowship must meet the requirements for ad¬ mission to the Graduate School and must express his intention of completing in this College the requirements for the master’s degree. He must also agree, in consideration of the award, to render a reasonable amount of service, to be determined by the Dean of the Graduate School and the head of the department in which he takes his major work. Nominations to scholarships or fellowships are made on the basis of worthiness of character, scholastic attainments, and promise of success in the field of study to which the applicant pro¬ poses to devote himself. They are made by the Dean of the Graduate School, subject to the approval of the President. The Texas Power and Light Company offers a graduate fellowship in engineering having a value of six hundred dollars and open to graduates from the Electrical Engineering or Mechanical Engineering courses. Page 20 jgr The School of Agriculture The organization of the School of Agriculture is shown in the following outline: Dean of the School Vice-Dean Productive Vice-Dean Economic DEPARTMENTS Agricultural Engineering Animal Husbandry Entomology Horticulture Poultry Husbandry Accounting and Statistics Farm and Ranch Management Agricultural Economics Agronomy Dairy Husbandry Genetics Landscape Art Rural Sociology Agricultural Economics Marketing and Finance E. J. Kyle, B.S., B.S.A., M.S.A. Dean irVH E four-year course in General Agriculture has for its main object the preparation of young dL men for the business of practical farming and ranching; for the pursuit of scientific investi¬ gations along some line of agriculture; for agricultural specialists for the State and government; for becoming county demonstration agents or extension workers, and for teaching in agricultural colleges and high schools. The men who finish the course in Agricultural Administration are well equipped to serve as research students in economics and commercial subjects; to enter government or state work in the field of marketing and statistics; to serve as economic and agricultural advisers in co¬ operative marketing organizations and chambers of commerce, corporations relating to agricul¬ ture and general businesses related to agriculture such as banking or merchandising; to administer landed estates (large or small) and to serve as county agents. Graduates of the Agricultural Engineering course are prepared for the following lines: With the colleges and government in teaching, extension and experiment station work; with manufacturers of farm machinery, gas engines, tractors, other equipment and farm buildings; in advertising, sales and design work, drainage and irrigation work, and with farm and trade journals. The purpose of the course in Landscape Art is to train the students in the development of outdoor areas, such as formal and informal flower gardens, large and small estates, parks and playgrounds, cemeteries and the surroundings of buildings, private, semi-public and public. The two-year course in Agriculture is intended for young men who wish to spend one or two years in preparing to go back to the farm to employ more scientific methods of farming which have been worked out in recent years. To this end the course is made highly practical. The School of Agriculture has undergone a remarkable growth during the past twelve years. It has increased from a few departments to fourteen departments. In 1914 it ranked seventeenth in enrollment of agricultural students. It ranks second today. During this period the enroll¬ ment has more than doubled itself, while all other institutions outranking it at the beginning of the period now have fewer students enrolled in their four-year agricultural courses than they had in 1914-1915. Page 21 Tlie School of Arts and Sciences DEPARTMENTS Biology Economics Geology Mathematics Modern Languages Chemistry English History Military Science Physical Education Physics -vi varna Charles E. Friley, B.S., M.A. Dean HE function of the School of Arts and Sciences is two-fold: First, to serve the technical divisions of the College by providing thorough instruction in the languages, literature, the social sciences and the natural sciences, which constitute the foundation upon which the technical curricula, such as engineering and agriculture are built; and second, in accordance with the provisions of the Morrill Act, which created the College, to offer comprehensive programs of study in the natural sciences and the liberal arts, for those students who find that their talents do not lie along technical lines, but who are interested in the more general fields of education and who wish the benefits of the military training and discipline which constitute such an im¬ portant and valuable phase of the work of the College. In the School of Arts and Sciences are included the departments of Biology, Chemistry, Economics, English, Geology, History, Mathematics, Military Science, Modern Languages, Physical Education and Physics. At some point in his college career practically every student comes in contact with the work of certain of these departments, notably, Chemistry, English, Mathematics, Military Science and Physical Education. It is generally recognized that strong departments in the natural sciences and in the general studies are essential to the success of an institution of higher learning, and this is particularly true of technological institutions, the work of which is based upon the sciences, mathematics, economics, and kindred subjects. No student should be graduated from college, no matter what its type, who has not received adequate instruction in those studies devoted to general culture, which make him familiar with the best thought of the best minds that have gone before him. To provide an education whereby young men may satisfy their material wants more completely and in shorter hours, without at the same time opening up to them channels of culture and self-development in the wide range of human thought and activities is like the parable of the man who asks for bread and is offered a stone. We are placing great emphasis on professional and technical education as a means of training young men to utilize their working hours to the best advantage, but we have by no means fulfilled our obligation to teach them to spend their non-working hours pleasantly and profitably. This is an important phase of the work of the School of Arts and Sciences, whose courses form an essential part of every curriculum offered by the A. and M. College of Texas. “General culture cannot be too widely disseminated among a people. Neither can technological training be properly given without accompanying it with the appropriate cultural training.” There is no better atmosphere for the study of the sciences than in a technical institution, such as the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas, where the principles of the physical and the biological processes are being applied daily to the solution of the multitude of problems which confront us in all phases of our material life. Page 22 The School of Eng in eer in g DEPARTMENTS Architecture Chemical Engineering Civil Engineering Electrical Engineering Drawing Mechanical Engineering Municipal and Sanitary Engineering Textile Engineering F. C. Bolton, B.S. Dean in ' HE departments of the School of Engineering give instruction in the technical subjects Ji. of the several engineering courses. The course in Architecture is planned to train a young man in the arts and sciences which are the foundation for the design and construction of build¬ ings. The course prepares for a wide range of occupations varying from the practice of the pro¬ fession of Architecture and the various associated professions to the business of the building contractor. The course in Chemical Engineering prepares the student for technical work in those in¬ dustries in which raw materials undergo a chemical change in the process of manufacture. The training of the chemical engineer has a broad enough engineering foundation to enable the student to advance to a full understanding and mastery of an industry. Civil Engineering students have a choice of three divisions. The first division of the course is for those most interested in surveying or the erection of structures of various types; the second division provides intensive instruction in the construction and design of highways and highway bridges; the third group is for those who wish to specialize in municipal engineering work or in the new field of sanitary engineering. The Electrical Engineering student is given the opportunity of preparing himself for the various branches of electrical engineering such as are found in the great electric power systems; in the electric railway industry, and in the rapidly growing field of the electrification of steam railroads; and in the communication field where large numbers of trained electrical engineers are required to maintain electrical channels of communication throughout the country. The Mechanical Engineering student is trained to design, construct and erect machinery, power plants, factories and mechanical equipment in general, and to operate them with the great¬ est efficiency. Students may specialize in the fields of power production, industrial engineering, or transportation engineering, each of which presents a wide opportunity for men with proper qualifications. The purpose of the Textile Engineering course is to prepare young men to enter the field of cotton manufacturing. Texas presents a splendid opportunity for textile development. Graduates of this course find employment in positions of responsibility in cotton mills. The College has a large enrollment of engineering students, ranking eighth in size in the entire nation. The graduates of the School of Engineering hold positions of responsibility in practically every type of industry, public utility, and public works in Texas, and that a recogni¬ tion of their training and ability is not confined to the State alone is shown by the number of important engineering positions throughout the nation which many of them are filling so suc¬ cessfully. Page 23 sm Ikf-m m W Tte School of Veterinary Medicine DEPARTMENTS Veterinary Anatomy Veterinary Medicine and Surgery Veterinary Pathology Veterinary Physiology and Pharmacology Mark Francis, D.V.M. Dean npHIS course has for its object the advancement of the medical profession. The instruction dL given in this school embraces those matters pertaining to animal diseases and their relation to public health. The importance of this is readily understood when we recall that Texas has about eight hundred million dollars worth of animals, of which we lose about two per cent annually from preventable causes. The College attempts to train young men in the cause and treatment of diseases, also in those physical and biological sciences that are so essential to the understanding of those problems. The oourse of .study extends over four years and is arranged to meet the requirements of the Civil Service Commission. Our graduates are eligible to appointment in the Army, in the Department of Agriculture, in the State Livestock Commission, and in Public Health Work. To many men it offers a very important field for usefulness. The freshman and sophomore years are, in a large measure, devoted to those physical and biological studies that contribute so much to an understanding of the problems of the course. The junior and senior years are devoted almost entirely to studies of a highly technical nature. Those who expect to engage in ranching, dairying or some other branch of animal industry, will find the course of great value to them in preventing serious losses from diseases or mis¬ management of their animals. Several men who have a biological mind have found the work to be an interesting life study, and such men are in great demand in matters of public health or as investigators in Experiment Stations. Those who pursue the course from commercial motives find its rewards are similar to those of any other form of human endeavor in that these will always be in proportion to the intelligence and energy displayed by the individual. There is a course which offers an opportunity for students to get training both in Animal Husbandry and in Veterinary Medicine. It is so arranged that the courses of study in both curricula can be completed in six years. In many instances it is desirable that students entering into the animal industries have a more thorough understanding of Veterinary Medicine than can be given in the four-year course in Animal Husbandry. Many positions which are open to graduates in Veterinary Medicine carry with them the responsibility that requires more training in Animal Husbandry than can be offered in a four-year course. The course offered for graduate students affords an opportunity for observation of the more intricate and recent phases of the profession. It is arranged for advanced students or teachers who wish to make a study of modern experimental methods. The work is arranged to suit the needs of the student and to be in harmony with his previous experience and training. The School of Vocational Teaching DEPARTMENTS Agricultural Education Rural Education Industrial Education C. H. Winkler, B.S., A.M., Ph.D. Dean lOOUR courses of study may be pursued in the School of Vocational Teaching; each of them A- leads to a degree. The course in Agricultural Education is designed to give the teacher of vocational agriculture the preparation and training, in both technical agriculture and in educa¬ tion subjects, required to qualify under the Federal Vocational Education act. The purpose of the course in Industrial Arts is to prepare men to teach Industrial Arts or Manual Training as offered in the public schools. The course in Industrial Education is intended to train teachers, supervisors and directors for the general continuation and trade and industrial schools of Texas. The course in Rural Education is offered in response to the increasing demand for high school principals and superintendents who have had the benefit of an agricultural college education in their preparation for leadership in the solution of rural-life problems. The graduate work of the school occupies an important place in the College. During the preceding year the enrollment in the graduate courses of the School of Vocational Teaching amounted to eighty per cent of the total enrollment of the Graduate School. Each year a large number of the graduates from this school take their places in the educa¬ tional system of the State. Two out of every three of the teachers of Vocational Agriculture trained in Texas are graduates of this school, while four out of five obtained the major part of their technical training at the A. and M. College. The influence of the high school tuition bill passed by the Thirty-ninth Legislature is bringing into small-town high schools many farm boys who were heretofore denied the privilege. This in turn has resulted in the establishment of a larger number of new departments of Vocational Agriculture in such high schools, thus increasing the demand for teachers of Agriculture. Since the inauguration of Industrial Education under the Federal Vocational Education Act in 1917 Industrial Arts has been grossly neglected by the high schools of Texas. Presumably this attitude was due to the assumption that Industrial Education would take its place. There is now a renewed interest in Industrial Arts and a clearer concept of its function in the high school curriculum which has created a demand for trained teachers far in excess of the supply. Through the Industrial Education Department in co-operation with the various departments of the School of Engineering, the school now offers every requisite for the complete preparation of these teachers in one of its four-year courses. Through the Division of Visual Instruction, films, lantern slides, and chart services have been maintained by the School for teachers of Vocational Agriculture, county agents and other exten¬ sion workers. Page 25 Charles H. Alvord, M.S. Agr. Director The Extension Service np ' HE A. and M. College, in co-operation with the United ih States Department of Agriculture, has the largest Extension organization in the United States. Texas started the Demon¬ stration Work which spread all over the country, and caused Congress and State authorities to make appropriations for the support of a system of extension activities. Such work is carried on at the land-grant colleges and in the counties of the different states. The A. and M. College was the first in the country to provide a separate building for headquarters for such work. Other colleges are constantly writing to Texas for information and suggestions along these lines. More than 300 agents, supervisors, and specialists are employed in this enterprise. Including county, state, and federal funds, nearly a million dollars are expended each year in conducting this work in Texas, while the total appropriations for the whole country run above twenty millions. During the first week in February, 1929, the Extension Agents of Texas will have as their guests their fellow workers of all the other states in a great convention in Houston. This will be the 25th Anniversary of the founding of this work in Texas. Other educational associ¬ ations will unite in the celebration. The Association of Southern Agricultural Workers has already accepted the invitation. The first farm demonstration was conducted on the farm of Walter C. Porter near Terrell, Texas, in 1903. Dr. Seaman A. Knapp secured the support of the business men and conducted the demonstration. James Wilson, the Secretary of Agriculture of the United States, who, by the way, served as a Cabinet officer longer than anyone else in the entire history of the country, came to Houston in the fall of 1903 and made arrangements for Dr. Knapp to begin appointing agents to put on hundreds of such demonstrations. Dr. Knapp had his headquarters in Houston at first, then at Lake Charles, Louisiana, and afterwards at Washington, where he extended the organization and established co-operative relations, with the colleges, and fostered thousands of demonstrations with crops, livestock, soil building, and home building. At first the work on the farms was conducted by adult farmers, but the boys wanted to have a part in A it, so corn clubs were begun. Then the boys took up other lines of agriculture. The girls made demonstration gardens, using tomatoes at first. Then they took up other vegetables and fruit and poultry. With the help of the mothers a system of home demonstration work was evolved. The 4-H Clubs became an important phase of the general plan, and now millions of farm and home demonstrations are conducted every year. The Extension Agents give a definition something like this: “A demonstration is a progressive, practical example of better farming or home making, by a farmer or a member of his family, which leads to more profit, comfort, culture, influence and power.” There are nearly two hundred men agents, specialists and supervisors engaged in the field operations of the Extension Service. Of this number eighty-seven are graduates of the A. and M. College of Texas. When it is considered that the vocational education work calls for about the same number of teachers, and that chambers of commerce, railroads, fertilizer companies and other organizations and institutions employ men in related and similar lines, it seems that many students of the college may look forward to careers of usefulness by being well prepared for such activities. Page 2b Tlie Experiment Station f’fp ' HE Texas Agricultural Experiment Station is the Agricul- tural Research Division of the A. and M. College of Texas. The Experiment Station was established at a meeting of the Board of Directors of the College, held January 25, 1888, soon after the College was established, it being realized that a fact¬ finding agency was desirable and necessary in connection with agricultural teachings and with the proper development of the State’s agricultural resources. The Agricultural Experiment Station consists of a staff of 54 scientifically-trained workers, with facilities consisting of buildings, laboratories, and field stations for the study of im¬ portant agricultural problems of Texas. The organization consists of twenty divisions, fifteen sub-stations, and six field laboratories located in the principal agricultural regions of the State. The Agricultural Experiment Station encourages work on the part of graduate students and offers the use of data, records, and laboratories to graduate students who desire to familiarize themselves with research methods. Many notable contributions to agriculture have been made by the Agricultural Experiment Station since its establishment, among which are the development of the Texas Fever immuniza¬ tion process, which resulted in greatly advancing the cattle industry in all tick-infested regions; the introduction and improvement of grain sorghums and the determination of their true feeding value as compared to corn, thus giving to West Texas a basic grain crop supporting its agricul¬ ture, and many other accomplishments of value in developing fully the agricultural resources of Texas. Many important problems are now under investigation, including such outstanding problems as the cotton root-rot disease, which disease is estimated to cause an annual loss of millions of dollars to Texas alone; the study of the loin disease of cattle, an obscure disease causing heavy losses of cattle in certain sections; the study of the conservation of water and soil fertility, and many other important problems of concern to the State and Nation. The Texas Agricultural Experiment Station is a conservative agency, which bases its con¬ clusions on overwhelming evidence brought to light through experimental work in connection with a particular problem. Results so obtained are reliable and are available to the other branches of the College in the teaching and dissemination of agricultural information and in the development of the agricultural resources of the State along safe and sound lines. The reports, bulletins and circulars issued by the Station System are distributed to the farmers and stockmen and other citizens of Texas for the asking. Page 27 college hospital was erected in 1916. It is a modern iL brick building with steam heat, hot and cold shower baths, a capacity of over a hundred beds, and is equipped with operating room, X-ray equipment and laboratory facilities. The hospital has its own kitchen. There is a staff which consists of one full-time physician, a technician, four day nurses and one night nurse. The college physician is at the head of the hospital organization, and he is responsible to a very large extent for its proper and economical functioning. The nurses take care of the greater part of the routine work of the hospital, and it is largely due to their efficient handling of the minor details which arise in the functioning of the organization that give the valuable results which are obtained. The health of the students depends to a large extent upon the way in which the hospital takes care of the calls made upon it. This was seen this year in the thorough manner in which epidemics have been forestalled and controlled. When two cases of smallpox appeared on the campus, prompt action in the vaccinating of everyone put an end to this menace. Cases of mumps and measles which, when the crowded dormitory conditions are considered, might be thought to be serious, have been kept down to a small number, so that the percentage of the students affected is surprisingly low. It would be difficult to determine the value of the treatment which is accorded minor injuries. The average number of students who report to the hospital for such treatment at the daily sick calls is well over a hundred. Dr. J. E. Marsh, A.B., M.D. Physician The hospital staff deserves credit for their economical operation of the hospital. Only a part of the physician’s salary is paid by the State. Practically the entire budget for the hospital consists of the medical fee paid by the students each year.

Page 63 Senior Class History TN THE early autumn of 1924 the Army of the Athletic and Military College -a- was mobilized to fight a winter campaign of unusual adversity. Large was the number of men that came to fill in the ranks, and legion were the types of men that poured into the gates of the great camp. Many old men, long versed in the art of battle, returned. However, the fame of the regiments had spread far and wide causing many “Johns” to aspire to a place among them, and many were the volunteers that gathered to the standards. The old men dubbed these recruits fish and set about to train them. In their education nothing was neglected; bull pens were plentiful; the busy sound of the fishkiller rang forth incessantly; many were the nights that the rookies spent in reconnoitering the surrounding terrain. Twenty-eight cushless days made them value the distinction of keeping their numeral on the water tower. As that first year came to a close, the fish emerged hardened and experienced veterans of battle. No longer did they flinch under the fire directed at Prexy’s moon. They had weathered such hair-raising events as the Cavalry Rebellion and the burning of Milner Hall. It was well that they were given such training, for the next year it fell to their lot to train a new host of volunteers. They lent themselves willingly to the task, and before the end of another year there emerged many more trained soldiers to take the place of those who had fallen by the wayside and upon the field of battle. In the campaigns of this year the Army was victorious over their many enemies. Not only was the Conference Championship won in football and cross-country, but the University of Texas was routed in an ignominious defeat of 28-0. The third year of service of these men of ’28 saw many of them rise to positions of honor and responsibility in the ranks of the Army. Diligently did they apply themselves, for they realized that it would not be long before they would them¬ selves direct the maneuvers of the troops. Through six weeks of the summer these seasoned warriors sweated in camp; many were the callouses that were left on their hides from the use of saddle and rifle and G. I. shoe. However, all the effort put forth was well repaid, for it was in summer camp that such notorious characters as No-Gun Phillips were discovered. Thus it was that the fish who entered in 1924 came to be officers of the troops after three hard years of service. As they planned their last campaign, they thought of the things that had been taught them by the men that had gone before, and they acted wisely. Another Conference Championship in football was won. Once again a glorious victory was won over their ancient rivals, the University of Texas; this time the score was 28-7. Everywhere the fruits of the hard efforts of many of the men of ’28 came forth, and many records of athletic prowess, student activity, and scholarship were set by them. As the year wore on these men erected a memorial at the gates of Kyle Field as a mark of their respect for their Alma Mater. Looking back over their varied experiences, the men of ’28 recall many incidents that are dear to their memory. They see more clearly that they have trodden the same path that the men who went before them trod, and as they leave they sincerely hope that the Old Army will better be able to carry on because of the days that they have spent in it.

Port A rthur Temple Page 82 Junior Class History A S September 15, 1925, approached, nine hundred and one very “bright” chaps, called “Fish,” began to assemble upon the college campus. Avery warm welcome was extended to them by the College and especially by the “high-rating” Sophomores. During the process of being made into true Aggies, these young men learned to smile, for they had very little time to worry. The smile that was noticed by everyone was that of our “Fish Prexy,” Dr. T. O. Walton, who was entering college, too, but taking up the duties of the president’s office. The first class meeting was held soon after the be¬ ginning of school, and John Cuthrell was elected President. It was in this wonderful first year as dwellers in Aggieland that the Fresh¬ men witnessed the Aggies as champions both in football and cross-country. School work, together with the successful football season, brought the first term of the school year to a very quick close. The second term, however, was a long struggle against the thoughts of the seemingly far-away vacation days; this monotony being broken up in a small way by the spring athletic events together with some never-to-be-forgotten experiences, such as the Fish Banquet and the R. V. festivities. The Fish Banquets, probably the last outstanding event of the year for the “Fish,” shall never be forgotten as enjoy¬ able get-togethers for both Fish and upperclassmen. By the end of the year, the Class of ’29 realized that the best year of college life was, at last, over. As the summer holidays drew to a close, most of the boys were anxious to return to Aggieland but the opening of school found several old faces missing. These Sophomores, realizing that they had “Fish” of their own in which to instill the Spirit of Aggieland, attained the height of their ambitions. This year J. A. Simmons was elected to the office of President; Z. W. Bartlett, Vice-President; S. J. Petty, Secretary, and J. H. Cuthrell, Historian. In the fall of 1927 these men again assembled to take their stand with the Aggies through another victorious athletic season. The Juniors again witnessed the Aggies defeat Texas and again win the Southwest Conferen ce Championship, both in football and cross-country. This same year witnessed an appreciable stepping forward with the col¬ lege building program. Two new dormitories were built to take care of the crowded conditions, and the first unit of the concrete stadium was constructed on Kyle Field. Among the “T” men, the Junior Class claims these: W. E. Davis, S. J. Petty, Z. W. Bartlett, H. E. Burgess, N. A. Webster, J. A. Simmons, J. F. Konechny, J. P. Avila, C. E. Richter, H. Ashley and D. H. O’Neil. On the yelling staff the Class of ’29 has “Skinny” Ketterson and Jimmy Hooks. Class officers for the present year are: J. A. Trail, President; R. E. Bauer, Vice-President; T. J. Andrews, Secretary-Treasurer, and E. T. Fuller, Historian. Page 83 An Appreciation To Mr. Richard J. Dunn Director of Music A. and M. College of Texas TR. DUNN came to A. and M. with the class of ’28 and immediately UvA impressed us as being the capable and successful organizer and band leader that he is. His previous military training of nearly thirty years, to¬ gether with his ability as a musician and band leader, has made possible a successful Texas Aggie Band composed of one hundred men. His patience and untiring energy that he manifests in going about his work has impressed the present band seniors since their first “tryout” for the band in September, 1924. Mr. Dunn probably remembers something of other band examinations for out of the two hundred and five applicants who took an examination, given at Paris, France, for commission as band leader, he was rated second of the ten successful candidates. Mr. Dunn, with his pleasing personality, has quickly orientated himself in the college activities. When the cadet corps asked for a new school song, Mr. Dunn composed the music to “The Spirit of Aggieland.” Of him it is well to say, “that man does his work and smiles.” Page 84 3� v ' v ■ ' •r must learn to stand on his feet and speak without em- harrassm end ' . . ..■ lUNDERCRaDLIATES ' Page 86 Page 87 FRESHMAN CLASS Page 88 mM FRESHMAN CLASS Page 89 tM u mmS t. mwW jmmrn ■■BBEKBEBBaMMDKMB Sophomore Class Officers B.

Mackey as coach, working hard so that he might be one of the six men to represent the State of Texas and A. and M. College at the International Livestock Exposi¬ tion at Chicago. The original number was fourteen and one by one they gave way to some one who was better, until the final team was picked. This team represented the best stock judgers that the institution had to of fer and every one was proud of the record these boys made, although they did not bring back the coveted Bronze Bull, which A. and M. has won twice, needing to win just one more time to become permanent property. The team left College early in November and judged at the show in Wichita, Kansas, where they took first place with keen competition. From there they went to the American Royal at Kansas City and placed second by a very close score. Chicago was reached two days before the contest to give the team time to rest before entering into competition. The team placed eighth in the contest, but this was an unusually good record since so many teams were entered. J. M. Bird, N. E. Ryall, W. S. Amend, T. G. Greenwade, R. R. Peeples, H. E. Howard, A. K. Mackey (Coach) Page 92 National Dairy-Judging Team OIX men reported to Coach A. L. Darnell as candidates for the National Dairy-Judging Team on September 11th. These six men, R. F. Mc- Fatridge of Roxton, C. B. Senter of Teague, C. L. Wilson of Ft. Worth, R. F. Lawrence of Luther, F. B. Cox of Whitney, and A. J. Bierschwale of College Station, entered the two weeks’ training with the determination to be one of the three men who were to represent Texas A. and M. at the National Dairy Show at Memphis, Tennessee. Competition was keen and at the end of the two weeks’ training Coach Darnell decided to take all six men on the trip. The Kream and Kow Klub gave the team a farewell banquet and presented each man with $150 to help defray expenses. On October 2nd the team and Coach Darnell left for the Texas-Oklahoma Fair at Wichita Falls, where the team held workouts for five days. On October 8th the team went to the State Fair at Dallas, where they worked out until the fourteenth. The team arrived in Memphis on the fifteenth and Coach Darnell an¬ nounced his team. The successful men were McFatridge, Senter and Wilson. Thirty-two teams entered the contest and the team encountered strong compe¬ tition. Iowa placed on top this year and this is our aim for next year. Darnell, Coach McFatridge Senter Intercollegiate Poultry “Judging Team A T THE beginning of school the Poultry-Judging Team started to work, training for the competition that they would meet in Chicago. The team this year was coached by D. F. Irwin and he was well awarded by his efforts for the team made a very creditable showing considering the fact that this is only the second year of its existence. The following men were named to represent A. and M. at Chicago: F. C. Willard of Giddings, V. F. Fitzhugh of Tolar, J. M. Hancock of Morgan Mill, A. E. Parrott of Mart. Page 94 Tlie A. and M. Debating Team CHARLES O. SPRIGGS, associate professor of English, has been in charge of the debating team only two years, but in this time he has done remark¬ ably well with it, in spite of the lack of interest that has been shown by the majority of the student body. No doubt there are many students that are well qualified for debating and declaiming but they have not taken advantage of the opportunity that is offered them by Mr. Spriggs. This year A. and M. has been represented by the following men: S. C. Leslie of Houston, H. B. Boswell of DeLeon, I. Irwin of Dallas, J. D. King of Ennis, W. S. Morrison of Big Spring, R. N. Talbott of Miles. A team composed of Leslie and Boswell was selected to debate against Arkansas College, and another team is to be selected that will debate against Abilene Christian College. Much valuable training is obtained from these debates and the team should end the season with a great deal of success. Boswell, H. B., King, J. D., Talbott, R. N., Toepperwein, H. W.

Glee Club is one result of four years of consistent and 1 voluntary effort on the part of Mr. Dunn, our director, to improve the quality of the music in the Sunday morning chapel services. As an encourage¬ ment, the college, through the agency of Dean Friley, gives the members a small monentary compensation for their time spent at rehearsals. The mem¬ bers derive benefit and pleasure from the club activities, which include occa¬ sional radio programs as well as the choral singing at Guion Hall. Front row — J. F. Criswell, W. L. Ward, M.

They are banded together that they may help the institu¬ tion they love so well; that they may help and keep in contact with each other, and that they may help the present students of A. and M. in their work and struggles for an education. The Student Loan Fund work of the Association has grown by leaps and bounds. In 1927 the Association extended financial assistance to 1,200 men and loaned a total of $72,000, with only three notes being delinquent and unpaid. This “Investment in Young Manhood” is cue of the most appealing and far-reaching phases of the Association’s work. The office of the Association upon the campus is a clearing-house for any service that can be rendered to the members. Dozens of men are placed in profitable and congenial employment each year. The Texas Aggies is published semi-monthly. Students are counseled and assisted. Legitimate athletics are fostered and encouraged. Correct addresses and files are main¬ tained for the great body of Former Students. The aim of the Association and its members is to serve in every way possible the college, its officers and faculty, the student body, and every A. and M. man, wherever he may be. _ O 7 mAwmimmiwmmmjmmmmmjmmmmi “They found a little courage That simmered in the sun; They blended it with patience, And just a spice of fun; They poured in hope and laughter, Then, with a sudden twist, They stirred it all together, And made an optimist.” ■is mm ‘PONiV fcVPgl i u Spread your knowledge that others might learn ' ’ mSik : 5 S| - ill iPuBLICATIOM W =r W Raymond M. Bradford Editor-in- Chief The 1512,8 Longhorn f ' lT ' HE production of the Longhorn is not the work of any one -W- individual or any one group of individuals. True it is, that the greatest task falls upon the editor and the staff; theirs is the incessant grind of hours and hours of hard labor and sleepless nights. But the material with which we work, the very backbone of the book, is furnished by the entire student body, for herein is recorded the history of the Corps, its successes and disappoint¬ ments, its moments of joy and of sadness. Truly, this is “The Annual of the Corps of Cadets.” We have strived, wherever possible, to present things in a different, yet pleasing an d efficient manner. In several cases, where the methods of presentation used by the staffs of previous volumes seemed to be the best solution possible, we have followed their examples. Changes were not made merely for the sake of being different. The 1928 Longhorn was produced at a cost of approximately $21,000. We wish to express our sincere appreciation to our advertisers, for were it not for their contributions the publication would be an impossibility. Complete financial records of the Longhorn are kept in the Fiscal Department of the Col¬ lege. The public is invited to inspect these records any time. We take this opportunity to thank Mr. Gilbert Allen Geist, of the Architectural Depart¬ ment, for the faithful and efficient manner in which he has aided us in the production of this book.

The paper is known as the “Official publication of the students of the A. and M. College of Texas,” and is printed each week during the year with the idea in view of being nearly as truly a representativ e paper of the students as is possible. At present the publication is under the supervision of a Student Activities Committee which functions as an advisory board because of the lack of a Journalism Department. It is financed by a students’ activities fee and advertisements. The staff is picked from members of the Senior, Junior, Sophomore, and sometimes the Freshman classes, the Editor-in-Chief and Business Manager being elected by student vote. Next year there will be a Publications Board that will have more complete advisory control of the Battalion and will be run on a more systematic principle with an office and paid staff, as all other college papers are. The special editions of the Battalion create a good bit of interest among the students. For a few years when we had co-eds the “Powder Puff,” published by the girls, was one of the issues looked forward to with much ant icipation by the cadets. The Falls Sports Issue, the Special “Bat,” put out by the company winning the subscription campaign, and the Class Issues, give other men than those on the regular staff a chance to display their journalistic ability. The Battalion tries to encourage the students to contribute to its columns and write for it any time they wish. News of interest to the students as a whole, sports, and editorials compose the paper. There is an outlet for student opinions, jokes, and the solution or question of student problems that enables any one to get in touch with all the students of the College. Very little space and attention is given to the literary side of the paper. Andrews, Coleman, Dietert, Farris, Fontaine, Franke, Holmes, Hudson, Johnson p h T) r The Battalion . C. Morris . R.

McQuillen f’TP ' HE Texas Aggie, published bi-monthly, is the official organ of the Former -W- Students. 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. and M. men in every line of the world’s work are recorded, to be read eagerly by their scattered friends. Marriages, deaths, promotions, 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 fra¬ ternity of A. and 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. and M. family.

A. is an integral part of the life of A. and M. College. Its very existence -W- is due to the fact that there was a deep-felt need for such an institution. The “Y” staff is instrumental in bringing to the Campus, each week, two of the best shows avail¬ able, and also from time to time high-class musical entertainments are brought to the campus under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. No organization of college has the opportunities for definite service equal to that invested in the Young Men’s Christian Association, which is one of the most magnificent in Texas, with swimming pool, billiard tables, picture shows, magazines and free sta¬ tionery. It also furnishes meeting-places for all groups and organizations including services for two church groups. Page 122 C. E. Friley f’Tp ' HIS year the Y. M. C. A. Cabinet had an advantage over last year’s Cabinet. The organization had been formed and the officers had been elected. A program of work had also been outlined. Included in the program was several class smokers, which seem to be appreciated very much by the students. The Student Cabinet is directly in charge of these entertainments.

Brown f ' TT ' HIS year the Baptist Group has had the best year since its work was established JL here. This year, the seventh, has seen a more progressive organization than we have ever experienced before, wdth church services and B. Y. P. U. meetings held in the E. E. Building. We are still in the same predicament in which we have been ever since we organized, that is we are still sorely in need of a church building. Without a meeting place of our own we can never hope to accomplish that which should be accomplished at A. and M. The students are willing, we have an excellent pastor, and a complete church organization but no meeting-place of our own. We have both Junior and Senior B. Y. P. U. meetings every Sunday evening as well as Sunday school and Church services. Nor do we neglect the social activities for we have several picnics, parties, and socials throughout the year. vUR second appearance in the Longhorn enables us to make a most favorable report for the year just ended. Other than the routine of regular church and business meetings; besides entertainments and parties, we have some interesting activities to relate. In the first place, we have an additional number of students over last year, and we have been blessed and strengthened by the interest of many of our men. The church has been most generous and most wise to follow her students during their trying years in college. A new location has been secured for our buildings for which plans are being drawn. The new building site cost $8,750, giving us a most strategic position. It is hoped that we may have, in the near future, a Chapel, Rectory and Parish House, beautiful, complete, and attractive. We are proud to relate that our Frank Dwyer is the president of the Diocesan Students’ Council this year. Two activities of the year should be mentioned. We have a Choir composed of students which is trained by Mrs. Daup, and the first Sunday of the month, we have a Corpo¬ rate Communion, followed by breakfast in the Mess Hall. The Church Service League purchased a steel locker in which to house our possessions, and the Church Periodical Club gave us 100 new Hymnals, for which we are truly thankful. Several memorials have been promised for the new Chapel. 1 -a % -i 41 I ):lil..liii lil.il Iljl-.I llllili.iil,. I ill It il-ill ilmli ilulil till Rev. Luther Schliesser ]|_ VEN though this is the first year there has been any real church activity among l( iv the Lutheran students at the College, a good program has been followed with com¬ mendable church attendance. Real group organization and co-operation of the mem¬ bers of all synods of the denomination was the outstanding characteristic of the various activities. Credit for this fine work is almost entirely due to Rev. Luther Schliesser of Caldwell. He assumed the responsibility of fostering church activities at the beginning of the school year and has continued to do so until June. Every Lutheran student at the College sincerely appreciated the interest he has taken in them. Rev. Hugo Roitsch of Kurtain is another man that has taken active interest in the students’ welfare. He was here last year but was unable to work freely on account of a late beginning. The students also appreciate the services rendered by Rev. Ander of Houston and Rev. Schawe of Buckholts.

King Vivian as pastor, who remained for about four and one-half years. During his pastorate a lot was secured and a temporary church building completed, and here all the church activities have been carried on. The Tabernacle though not much for looks has been our church home for six years, and without it it would be impossible to carry out our program. Rev. J. C. Thomson came to us in 1924 as pastor and the church has had a steady increase all along. Sometime during the spring we expect to build a parsonage just east of the present property. All the organizations of the church have done well this year. E. A. Dillon is presi¬ dent of the Student Cabinet and C. A. Smith, Secretary-Treasurer.

There has been no little discussion the last year or two concerning the ad¬ visability of discontinuing these services, but it seems to be the consensus of general opinion that they are of great benefit, therefore Sunday Chapel Services will continue to be an established custom at A. and M. College. ' i C •j A 1 I wasSWf 9 pm m A A A 3n ilemortam t Prof, and Mrs. E. J. Fermier Cadets: John Levinson C. W. Eddins M. S. D. Brown Ernest E.

The Aggieland orchestra acted as fun-makers for that last year’s dance, and the Seniors were given a very pleas¬ ant farewell. The night before the Final Ball the Juniors had their Prom, which was led by “Bugs” Warren and Mildred Barr. Both of these dances were gala affairs and will long be remembered by the classes of ’27 and ’28 as the most enjoyable dances on record. Page 132 Doris Dunbarr Joel Hunt Tke Thanksgiving Dances npHE Thanksgiving dances brought to a close a very successful season, with the championship resting once more in Aggieland. The festivities proved to be as successful as the season on the gridiron. The dances were given in honor of the championship football team by the student body. Joel Hunt and Doris Dunbarr led the grand march, while “Good-bye to Texas” was played by Goldberg’s Merry Makers. The dances were held in the spacious Sbisa Hall, which was very appropriately decorated with maroon and white and silhouettes of football players. It goes without saying that everyone entered into the celebration whole-heartedly and made the most of their coveted opportunity to participate in such a celebration. Page 133 Decorations for Thanksgiving Hop, 1927 Mary Jones Scott Amend Rodeo npHE 1927 Rodeo was the most successful one for a great many years from both financial and amusement standpoints. The pageant was very elaborate— with Mary Jones as Queen and Scott Amend as King. The Rodeo is an annual affair, to provide finances for the International Stock Judging Team to go to Chicago, and holds a high place on A. and M.’s social calendar. It is looked forward to by every Cadet who likes to see the “Wild West” come to life, and those that have ambitions to ride something a little wilder than the “Toonerville.” After the “Big Show” every one journeyed over to Bryan to take part in a dance at the Elks’ Hall, and again joy ran rife.

J. A. Deffebach, President of the Club, led the grand march with Lura Dickinson. The Committee chairmen were: Arrangements, A. C. Sprott; Finance, C. E. Richter; Decoration, E. E. Figari; Programs, H. P. Wylie; Music, J. D. Wyman; Floor, O. D. Alsabrook. All of these men put forth every effort to make the dance a success and every one that was lucky enough to be invited declared that they had made a huge success. Page 135 The 1928 “T” Dance HE® Mary Luther L. T. Potter BL V. Dances nP ' HE Ross Volunteers was organized as a crack drill company under the name of The Scott Volunteers in 1887. In 1891, the name of the Company was changed to that of the Ross Volunteers in honor of former Governor Lawrence Sullivan Ross, who later became President of the College. Since the Company was organized, its activities have been extended to include things of a social nature as well as the drill. Membership in the Company is limited to those students in the two upper classes of the College and this membership is composed of those who will take an active interest in both the drill and the social activities. The officers of the Company this year are: L. T. Potter, Dallas, Captain; Ralph Young, San Antonio, First Lieutenant; E. L. Gerdes, Sinton, J. D. Wyman, Cleburn, Second Lieutenants; B. C. Varner, Dallas, First Sergeant; H. E. Burgess, Hale Center, D. H. Beatty, Austin, Sergeants; E. R. Torn, Taylor, Secretary-Treasurer. Page 13b Frank Mabry Carrol Cox R. V. Dances npHE R. V. Dances lead the social calendar of the spring term, and it is the height of every girl’s ambition to be invited down for the dances. There are three dances in all, the R. V. Hop, the Queen’s Ball, and the Corps dance. The R. V. Banquet comes the first afternoon, and an exhibition drill comes the second evening before the Queen’s Ball. The music is always the best that can be obtained and the decorations never fail to be original and different, as well as very lavish. This year the mess hall was decorated to represent an under-sea grotto, the color scheme was very pleasing to the eyes and seemed very real. Frank Mabry was elected King of the festivities and he selected Miss Carroll Cox as Queen. Page 137 The R. V. Court, 1927 Corps Dances P. C. Farris Social Secretary || ' HE Corps Dances in the mess hall annex are about the only diversions from our Jh routine college life and they are greatly appreciated by the student body. Due to the efforts of Percy Farris these dances this year have been above the average, and the Barnyard Dance that he put on was one of the best dances of the year. The Aggies’ own orchestra, “The Aggieland,’’ officiates at most of these dances, and they put out the kind of music that the cadets like under the able direction of Eliam Eckles.

R ifl e Team npHE War Department has long recognized the need of having its reserve officers skilled in the fundamentals of rifle marksmanship, and for that reason the sport of indoor rifle shooting receives the support that it does from the Ninth Corps Area Headquarters. During the past year some two hundred and twenty thousand rounds of gallery ammunition were expended on our range, and nine Springfield gallery rifles were added to our small-bore equipment. Our intramural matches began soon after December 1st, and were concluded early in February. Company I Infantry won the coveted “Bessie” cup together with the silver medals donated by merchants of Bryan. Our team matches began in November with a challenge from the University of Wisconsin, and the first match was won by the challenger. In January, Feb¬ ruary, and March, we won the Senior R. O. T. C. Match against all the Senior R. O. T. C. Units in the Eighth Corps Area, won from V. M. I., and placed high in the Hearst Intercollegiate among eighty-eight competitors. While we did not win all our matches, we feel that our season was a successful one, and for evidence of our efforts campaign ribbons were donated to the team members by the Military Department at a Review during the Commencement Exercises.

Ammunition, ih arms, range, and targets are provided, and a regular army officer takes charge of the super¬ vision of the various matches that are fired. Members of the pistol team are selected on a competitive basis from the best pistol shots in the corps without regard to the class of the candidates. As a result, many men try out for the team, and a number of excellent marksmen are developed each year. About two hundred men competed for places on the 1927 team and fifteen men were selected for the squad. At the end of the year these men were awarded the green campaign bar by the military department. All matches were fired on an outdoor range with the .45 calibre, Government model, automatic pistol. Most of the matches fired against other schools were pistol matches in which opposing teams fired on their own home range on the same day, and certified scores were exchanged by mail. Matches were fired against the pistol teams of Purdue University, Culver Military Academy, Iowa State College, the University of Missouri, the Oregon Aggies, University of Wisconsin, and the New Military Institute. Practice and tryouts for the 1928 team and pistol season opened in the last week of March. Matches were scheduled with a number of the leading military schools which have pistol teams. The 1928 team was coached by First Lieutenant A. E. Mickelsen. Top row — O. J. Rea, C. G. Crocker, A. P. McDonald Bottom rozv —Lieut. R. D. Powell, H. B. Shook, O. H. Hegemann, J. Neff, Lieut. A. E.

Y., December 10, ’27. Mr. Raymond Bradford, The Longhorn, College Station, Tex. Dear Sir: Mr. Armstrong wishes me to tell you that it was only after long deliberation that he was able to make his selections in your beauty contest. You will find his choices for first, second and third places, etc., marked on the back of the photographs. He finds it very difficult, and frequently unfair, to judge a girl’s beauty from a single photograph. Miss Burke was finally awarded first place because her individual features seemed to be excellent, and also because the structure of her face appears to conform to the accepted standard. Second place was so impossible to decide that Mr. Armstrong found it best to award it to two of the girls. - Yours truly, L. CORBIN, Secretary to Rolf Armstrong.

To the success of this coming true we must attribute to Mr. Sullivan. His plans call for the building of this great athletic plant without the aid of the ex-students or any other outside source. This year marked the completion of one section of the concrete football stadium and the mov¬ ing of the baseball stands to the new diamond. The Former Students expressed the feeling of the Corps and their Association by means of a bronze tablet, fastened to the concrete of the stadium, on which is written the following inscription: “In Appreciation of James Sullivan, An Untiring Worker for the Cause of Aggieland— This Stadium Erected in 1927.” No Senior’s education is complete here at A. and M. until he has visited the Athletic Department and investigated its efficient methods of management. In reviewing all that “Sully” has done in the past and what he has done this year, if there be such as an All-Amer¬ ican Business Manager, Mr. Sullivan deserves that honor. James Sullivan Business Manager Page 217 Major Sport CoacJies A true gentleman, a leader of men, and a master mind of football are some of the names that have been applied to D. X. Bible. It was back in 1916 that he came to College Station for the purpose of coaching the freshmen, but he proved of such value that the following year he was given the job of head coach. With the wealth of assets and ability, he has produced in his years at Aggieland the cleanest, hardest fighting teams that the Southwest has ever seen. Thanksgiving Day’s victory for the Aggies over the Longhorns, by adding another Southwest Conference Cham¬ pionship to A. and M.’s belt, gave A. and M. its fifth conference championship during the ten years that Bible has been head coach at the College. Bible Coach Bassett came to Aggieland from the University of Michigan where last year he helped Yost coach football and Mather basket ball. Coach Bassett is an engineering graduate, and a graduate in physical training. While in college he played three years varsity football and basket ball, and two years on the baseball team. Bassett should prove to be of great value to Aggieland because he has won his spurs as a man who loves Aggieland, and has given her all that he can. His line on the Varsity team has been one of the most powerful in the Conference, and with his ability he should help put out many wonderful Aggie teams. Bassett Coach Rothgeb is now an ex-student, having gone to Rice where he is now head coach. His record of one football championship and two second places in baseball speaks well of his ability. Rotkgeb Frank Anderson came from Mississippi College where he was a star on the football team coached by D. X. Bible. When Anderson came to Aggieland he took over the job of Assistant Football Coach and Track Coach, and has been rewarded by a track team that has been a credit to Aggieland, and a Cross- Country Team that won the 1927 Conference Championship at Dallas. Coach Anderson is a man in the true sense of the word. He believes in a four-square deal for everyone. When a man wants a chance, he gets it and Coach Anderson tries to help him make the grade. Anderson is a man that every one loves because of his personality, and his ready smile. Coach Anderson without his smile, is just not Coach Anderson. Anderson Page 218 M in or Coaches A AND M. has been fortunate in securing R. G. (Little Hig) Higginbotham as Freshman Coach, to take the place of Coach Bender. Higginbotham was All-Southwestern halfback on the 1919 and 1920 Aggie football teams, and since he left A. and M. as a graduate, he has coached at Austin College and Sherman High School. He is a man who knows football, having attended Rockne’s football coaching school at Notre Dame, Glenn Warner’s at Stamford, and Meanwell’s basket ball school. Coach Thomas is the man 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 demon¬ strate 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, nationally known as the “Singing Cowboy,” is our trainer. In his workrooms at the Gym and Hospital, he has the best equipment that can be furnished. Any one having ailments requiring tape, capsicum, splints, electricity, and liniment, see Doc. He works with his patient as though he enjoys it. Higginbotham Thomas Sprague Page 219 The Athletic Council f ' TP ' HE Athletic Council is charged with the duty of supervising all athletic sports, passing upon schedules and contracts for intercollegiate contests, and in general, developing policies designed to promote a wholesome program of physical education within the college. The Council acts primarily in an advisory capacity, the immediate management of the affairs of the Depart¬ ment of Physical Education being delegated to the Professor of Physical Education and his staff. The program of intercollegiate athletics occupies a prominent part in the life of the American college. The enthusiasm and keen rivalry which it engenders sometimes lead the students to give athletics undue emphasis, and as a consequence much criticism has come from the outside. There is no doubt that the program has been abu sed at times. But the lasting values to be derived from wholesome sports are well worth preserving, and it is the aim of the Athletic Council of the A. and M. College to encourage and develop an athletic program which will furnish an interesting outlet for youthful energies, and at the same time fit in constructively with the aca¬ demic program. To this end a comprehensive plan of intramural sports has been inaugurated to supplement the intercollegiate contests, so that every student may find systematic outdoor exercise to his liking. The Chairman of the Athletic Council is the faculty representative of the college in the Southwest Athletic Conference. The Conference is composed of representatives of seven of the leading institutions of the Southwest, and works out the regulations governing intercollegiate contests among the member institutions. Such matters as scholarship qualifications, rules of eligibility, conference games, awards, training rules, game officials, freshman teams, conduct of players, and student compensation are considered by the Conference. Every effort is made to place intercollegiate athletics on a high plane and to give it its rightful place in the general college program.

Although seven stars played their last game Thanksgiving Day and helped the Farmers to a 28 to 7 victory over the University of Texas, most of the squad were sophomores this year and will be back at Aggieland in 1928. The Aggies gained the championship by playing through a schedule hard enough to test the mettle of any football team, but they finished the season with a record of four conference victories, one tie and no defeats. Utilizing a varied attack which featured both passing and line plays the Aggies swept to victory in most instances by over¬ whelming scores. With a practically invulnerable line, few touchdowns were made against them. In building the 1927 A. and M. team, Bible had a nucleus of ten letter-men from the preceding year to start with. Two of these were back-field men, Captain Joel Hunt of Waco, flashing field general of the Aggies in 1926 as well as this year, and H. E. Burgess, of Hale Center, Capt. Hunt star line plunger. The remaining eight letter-men were linesmen. With this as a beginning and a fine lot of prospects from the Freshman ranks of the preceding year, Bible, Dean of all coaches, welded his 1927 grid machine. Page 227 Captain Hunt A ' U-Conference Quarter All-American Mention All-Western Half Football, 192,7 D. X. Bible, with the assistance of Charles F. Bassett, line coach, football and basket ball star at the Michigan State College, who came to A. and M. in September follow¬ ing a year at the University of Michigan where he assisted Yost in football and Mather in basket ball, put out another team this year that reminds football fans of the 1917, ’19, and ’25 Texas Aggies who forged through the lists to con¬ ference championships. After the Thanksgiving Day battle with the Texas Longhorns the Texas Aggies led the race for the coveted conference pennant with four victories and one tie out of five games, for a final percentage of .900. In the nine games of their 1927 schedule the Aggies piled up a total of 262 points to a total of 32 for their opponents, hav¬ ing won every game except the clash with Texas Christian University at Ft. Worth which was a to tie. For the past three years this game with T. C. U. has been a stum¬ bling block for the Farmers. It seems that this game has developed into a sort of mental hazard, one which in reality should be easily overcome. It might be, however, that they have proved to be a help rather than a hindrance, for twice they have helped bring us to the realization that we were not invincible, and as a result we forged ahead to a cham¬ pionship. Sikes All-Conference End All-American Mention All-Western End Hunt demonstrates the stiff-arm Page 228 Football, 102,7 Overwhelming scores in nearly every game demonstrated in a forcible manner the prowess of the 1927 Aggies as point makers. The season was opened with Trinity University on Kyle Field. Joel Hunt made the first touchdown of the season in the first few minutes of the game. Trinity put up a game fight and the Aggies had to resort to the air to make any appreciable gains, but the final score was 45 to with Burgess doing the major part of the scoring. Thirty passes were thrown by the Aggies in this game. Then came the game with Southwestern University, played just after a terrific downpour of rain. This was the game in which Varnell did such consistent line-plunging, his total gain from scrimmage being 120 yards. As usual Joel Hunt made the first touchdown of the game, wading 35 yards through the mud on the initial play of the game to plant the ball behind the Southwestern goal posts. The Aggies made 11 first downs to their opponent’s 1 in this game without the aid of a single pass. Final score: 31 to 0. The two wins over Trinity and Southwestern, by over¬ whelming scores, gave the Aggies confidence for the coming game with Suwannee. For four years had the Farmers and the Tigers from Suwannee been arch rivals in keen and sports¬ manlike competition, and the Farmers hoes had never been dulled. They were determined to keep them so. After a good gam Lister All-Conference Tackle Sprott Tackle All-American Mention Page 229 Figari Guard Conference Mention Football, 192,7 The fifth battle between A. and M. and Sewanee resulted in another victory for the Aggies. This was the only intersectional game of the season for the cadets so they made the most of it. On a rain-soaked field Joel Hunt ran wild behind perfect interference to gain 177 yards from scrimmage and score three touchdowns. The lone first down made by Dr. Mike Bennett’s Tigers was by means of a forward pass. 18 to tells the tale. Excelling the wildest hopes of the most optimistic Aggie, the Farmers won the first battle in the race for the Southwest Conference Cham¬ pionship by defeating Arkansas 40-6, the Porkers register¬ ing the first touchdown and the first score of the season against A. and M. The game was marke d by the spectac¬ ular playing of Cole and Rose of the Arkansas team, although the sensation of the game was a 97-yard return of a kick¬ off for a touchdown by Joel Hunt. This game marked the first appearance of that versatile pass attack which carried the Aggies a long ways towards the championship. Later developments show that A. and M. had one of the most brilliant passing games ever appeared on a gridiron. Dana X. Bible, dean of all coaches, had moulded a team equally efficient in passing, kicking, and running plays. The Aggie team of ’27 was indeed a triple threat aggregation. This, coupled with the superb generalship of Joel Hunt made the Aggie machine one of the greatest the game has ever known. Sikes off for a long run Page 230 Football, 1027 Against Texas Christian University the Aggies failed to score, but it was a mutual failing since the game was a to tie. This was the third time in three years that the Farmers failed to subdue the Frogs although the Aggies made 10 first downs to the Frogs’ 5 this time. The T. C. U. game did the Aggies a world of good because in the game with the Texas Tech Matadors at Lubbock the Aggies came back to pile up a 47 to 6 victory, recording in this game their highest point total of the season. Pinky Alsabrook came into his own in the Tech game. He was on the re¬ ceiving end of most of the passes and he carried the ball for two trips across the goal-line. But as usual, Joel Hunt made the first touchdown of the game. It is at this stage of the season that two of the greatest running guards that ever played in the conference began to come into their own. The two men are Holmes and Figari. At a banquet in honor of football men at Houston, Captain Hunt said all there is to say about these two men when he asked them to stand and made the following remark: “The success of my running plays was due greatly to the inter¬ ference run by these two men.” Right here it might be said that the interference of the A. and M. team was one of its greatest assets. Coordina¬ tion was the watchword. When a man was needed to carry an opposing man out of the play, that man was usually there. It might be said that the Aggies had a fourth threat, that of perfect interference. Deffebach End Petty End Page 231 Hunt skirts an end Bartlett Center A ll- Conference Mention H Football, 102-7 Then came the game with Southern Methodist Uni- versitv Mustangs, played on Kyle Field this year, a gridiron classic that has already become a marker in Southwest Conference athletic annals. Having defeated the Uni¬ versity of Missouri 32 to 9, the Mustangs came to College Station trailing an aura of considerable glory. Before the largest crowd that ever assembled for a football game on Kyle Field, with the exception of Thanksgiving Day games with the University of Texas, the Aggies defeated the Mus¬ tangs 39 to 13 and jumped into the leadership of the con¬ ference. The Aggies thoroughly outplayed the Mustangs in every department of the game, even in passing, the game the Horses had grown famous for. And the Aggie line literally tore the Mustangs’ forward wall to shreds, and toward the twilight of the day as the game drew to a close there was little left of it other than a few uniforms, and several battered and much-worn Mustangs. The Bible- Bassett trained line was an impregnable fortress to straight¬ way attack, and it also proved w ' ell qualified to cope with the Horses when they grew tricky or versatile, as the people in Dallas call it. Eight Mustang passes were intercepted by the Aggies, while the cadets completed 11 for a total gain of 125 yards. Hunt did about everything that a football player could do in this game, including the making of three touchdowns. His position as quarterback on the All-Con¬ ference team was cinched. Burgess Fullback Page 232 Football, 1927 Rice put up a terrific fight on a muddy field to hold the Aggies to a 14 to score. They had Hunt pretty well covered but Burgess and Dorsey were able to get away for substantial gains. Out of 16 attempted passes just 3 were completed, for a total gain of 65 yards. The first downs were: A. and M. 17, Rice 6. Before a colorful throng of 27,500 people Joel Hunt led the Texas Aggies to a wonder¬ ful victory over the Texas Longhorns which gave the Championship to Aggieland. The eyes of Texas were upon the Texas Aggies Thanksgiving Day—magnetic, moving eyes that drove the maroon warriors of College Station to a magnificent victory over the University of Texas Longhorns, 28 to 7. The triumph at Kyle Field carried with it the Southwest Conference championship. It seemed all the sporting eyes in Texas saw the Aggies ascend to this lofty pinnacle on the wings of Joel Hunt’s deadly forward passes and his high-powered heels. The game was hardly five minutes old when the Aggies made their first touchdown and it came as the result of the prettiest play of the entire game. Bartlett intercepted a Texas pass and returned about 15 yards to midfield. On the third play, Hunt dropped back and shot a pass to Sikes for about a 15-yard gain, Sikes in turn passed laterally to Hershel Burgess who raced with sensational speed toward the corner of the field. Davis Half Richter Guard A good block aids Varnell in good gain against Sewanee Page 233 Dorsey Half Football, 192.7 The chalk marks seemed to fly behind Burgess and with each step the cheer of the cadets grew louder, the moan of the Longhorn admirers more audible. The play netted 39 yards and Burgess, who played a brilliant game from beginning to end, was chased out of bounds on the one- yard line. Now the Longhorn backs crept up back of the line to stop what they believed to be a line charge. In¬ stead, Dorsey took the ball and passed laterally to Hunt who received the oval five yards from the goal and with his characteristic drive smashed over the first score of the game. Thus it was Hunt who made the first touchdown against Texas, just as he had done against every other team during the season. Not that he wanted this glory for himself; he had enough of that already. But he was out to win games and when his better judgment told him that he was the man to carry the ball he did so, and he usually succeeded. Alsabrook Half Alsabrook plows through Page 234 Football, 102,7 Joe King, lean Longhorn quarterback, fought the battle of his life for Texas. Supported by Wild Bill Ford, King in the final quarter drove himself and his team halfway across the gridiron for a touchdown that even the Aggies stone wall of defense could not roll back nor halt. This episode brought out the peak of Longhorn power. Save for an intermittent flare-up now and then in the last half Texas appeared weak and wobbly in comparison with the compact scoring machine driven by Joel Hunt. It is only just that the sportsmanship of the Texas fans and the Long¬ horn players in particular be praised to the skies. For when the final shot sounded the Longhorns, under their blankets of orange, came bounding forward to issue congratulations to Joel Hunt, the fighting captain of the Fighting Aggies, 1927 Conference Champions. Rektorik Guard To the men who work silently and usually with¬ out mention for the back- field star who makes the brilliant runs and plunges, we would like to pay a tribute. The Corps un¬ derstands and appreci¬ ates the work the line has done to bring us a conference championship. Time and again has there been on the field a would- be tackier of the man carrying the ball taken out of the way by some unknown linesman—that is, unknown to the aver¬ age football fan. Mills Half Wylie Guard Page 235 Hunt ' s elusiveness plainly shown East-West Game Hunt ' vUT in California they are say- ing, “Gentleman, they play football in Texas!” And how. Two young men from the Lone Star State, with their speed, tricki¬ ness and downright plain hard running, kept the crowd that packed the Kezar Stadium on its feet through just about three of the four quarters played in the Shriner All-star East-West game. These two teams were composed of what was probably the most impressive collection of all-American football players ever assembled. But of the all-Americans, Hunt and Mann were the sensation, for they led the attack and each car¬ ried the ball over for the two touchdowns that the West scored in their 16-to-6 victory over the East. The other three Texas boys that gained honorable mention and were covered with glory by their performance, were Sikes and Mat¬ thews, at ends, and Brewster at guard.

The game was played in Houston before a large crowd. It was a fast game and abounded in brilliant playing. The Aggies roundly outplayed the Owls in the first half, emerging with an 18 to 7 score in our favor. But the second half was a different tale. The Owls made a brilliant come¬ back and caused a lot of excitement, but they were not capable of defeating the boys from College Station. Darby of the Aggies was high-point man, with Webster and Keeton of the Aggies tied with Grant of the Owls for second. The entire Aggie team showed a marked improvement over their previous performance with the Houston Triangles. For a while it looked as if the Aggies would hold the Mustangs, for the first half ended 18 to 15. Both teams were playing a fast, snappy game, with few fouls. The Ponies opened the second half with a rush and almost before the Aggies realized it they had the game socked away. Allison’s uncanny goal shooting was enough to decide the game, although the Aggies never quit fighting. Davis and Blount were injected into the fray and Davis furnished the fans with several thrills as he brought the ball through the Mustang defense. Keeton was the highest scorer for the Aggies with 7 points. Captain Sikes Page 241 Basket Ball, 192.8 In a nip-and-tuck tilt at Ft. Worth, a brilliant burst of scoring kept the Aggies from emerging victorious when in the last few minutes of play Acker of the Frogs caged a goal and then shot two fouls to give his team a victory. The Frogs had a five-point margin with five minutes to play, but a rally by the Aggies brought the count to 27 all, just before Acker got in his winning work. The game was close all the way and in a final analysis the Frogs won due to their ability to sink more free shots. Keeton and Webster led the Aggie attack. Sikes Guard Moving on to Dallas after the T. C. U. game, the Aggies dropped their second game of the trip to the Mustangs, thereby giving the Ponies a small amount of satisfaction and revenge over their severe drubbing on the gridiron last fall. The S. M. U. team was just too much for Bassett’s men, a better team, larger and more experienced. The Mustangs rang up nine points before the Aggies scratched, but from there out the game was a closer battle. Mann, not Jerry, led the Mustang attack and was high scorer for the night, with 17 points, closely followed by Hooks of the Mustangs, with 15. For the Aggies, Keeton and Webster again featured, scoring 22 of the Aggies’ 28 points between them. The game was the second defeat of the season for the Aggies at the hands of the Mustangs. Petty Forward Page 242 Basket Ball, 102,8 Two field goals in the last few minutes of play enabled Coach Pug Daugherity’s Rice Owl cagers to snatch victory out of the hands of Coach Chuck Bassett’s Texas Aggie quintet and win the fastest and most hotly contested game of the season, 33 to 30. Davis, Aggie forward, was high- point man, with 14. Morgan, diminutive Rice forward, was second, with 13. Davis played a beautiful game both on offense and defense, and his fast playing kept interest at a high pitch throughout the game. Sharing honors with Davis were Keeton and Webster, both of the Aggies, guard and forward, respectively. The Texas Longhorns played a tight defensive game to win over the Texas Aggies. The score was 51 to 30. Holly Brock, the flashy Texas forward, was the star of the game, taking high-point honors with 17. For the Aggies, Keeton was the highest scorer, ringing up 13 tallies, with Lockett coming second. Despite the fact that the Longhorns were on the heavy end of the score at the close of the game, the contest was hard fought throughout, the Aggies straining every muscle to annex a win from their arch rivals of long standing. Webster Forward Davis Forward Page 243 Keeton Guard Brown Center Basket Ball, 1928 The Texas Christian University Horned Frogs defeated Texas A. and M. College basketeers 30 to 24 on the home court. Davis, flashy Aggie forward, and Walling, Frog guard, tied for high-point honors with ten each, while Sikes, Aggie captain, was second with six. Coach Bassett started a revised line-up, playing Webster at forward and shifting Keeton to guard, and this combination seemed to be the most effective used this season. In a fast and hotly contested game, the Arkansas Razor- backs, twice winners of the Southwestern Conference Cham¬ pionship, cinched their hold on the 1928 pennant by defeating the Aggie cagers to the tune of 24 to 8. Schoonover, stellar Arkansas forward, was high-point man with 17 points, fol¬ lowed by Pickel, Porker center, with nine points. Petty, Aggie, forward, was high-point man for the Aggies with eight points. Sharing honors with Petty for the Aggies, were Keeton and Webster. Despite the score, the Aggies played better basket ball in this game than any other of the season. Bassett’s changed line-up and defense showed much improvement, but were still not good enough to stop the Porkers who took the lead at the beginning of the game and never slowed up. The Razorbacks had a well-balanced quintet, one of the best in the history of the Conference. They combined speed, craftiness, an unerring eye for the basket, and height into a sweet basket ball club. Some day Arkansas will cease pro¬ ducing men of such lengthy proportions, then the remainder of the quintets in the Conference will have a chance. Page 244 Basket Ball, 102.8 Coach Francis Schmidt’s Arkansas Razorbacks finished their conference basket ball race with a perfect record when they defeated the Texas Aggie cagers of Coach Chuck Bassett, 46 to 31, here Tuesday night. The half ended with the Porkers leading, 14 to 10. Pickel, rangy Razorback center, was high-point man with 14 markers, closely followed by his team-mate, Schoonover, who made 13 points. Petty, Aggie forward, led his mates with 10 points. The work of Petty, Keeton, Sikes, Webster, and Brown proved a puzzle to the Porkers until the last few minutes of the game. Coming from behind in the second half, Coach Fred Walker’s Longhorn cagers defeated a fighting Texas Aggie team, 30 to 20, at the A. and M. Memorial Gymnasium, in one of the fastest and roughest games played on the A. and M. court this season. Coach Chuck Bassett’s Aggies took the lead early in the game, holding onto it throughout the first half, but the fighting Texas dribblers came back strong in the second half and soon went into a lead which the Aggies could never regain. The score at the end of the first half was 14 to 13 in the Aggies’ favor. High-point honors for the game were shared by Noah Webster, brilliant Aggie forward, and Holly Brock, Longhorn forward. Both of them scored 12 points. The Aggie cage squad of ’28 was practically a new one, Captain Sikes being the only senior on the team. With the experience of another season behind them, and losing only one man through graduation, the Farmer quintet of next year should again bring A. and M. to the fore in basket ball circles. By next year Coach Bassett should have his system of play well instilled into his players and produce what Aggieland has been waiting several years for, a conference championship in basket ball.

Several of the men who showed to advantage in the battalion league were members of this team. As a whole the team was fairly fast, and was composed of good-sized men, who will be very valuable material for the varsity team next year.

Participation in the Texas and Rice Relay games at Austin and Houston, opened the track season for Frank Anderson’s Aggie squad. In competition with nearly one thousand of the outstanding track and field stars of the West the Aggies did not look so good, although their record at Houston is far from bad. In Austin the only scoring by the Farmers was in the one-mile relay in which they took third place. The same group did better at Houston and forced the Illinois mile team to a record time to take first place. The Aggie team was composed of Burgess, O’Neil, Blair and Parker. Kennedy, Aggie hurdle, furnished one of the biggest upsets of the Houston meet when he set a new Rice Relay record to win the low hurdles from several of the best hurdlers in the country. His sensational race was the surprise of the meet, as he was not given an outside chance to place. Captain Parker Page 249 Captain Parker Mile and quarter-mile relay Appleman High Jump Track and Field, 192,7 The only other place won by the Aggies was third place in the javelin, going to Holleron, Farmer sophomore. Staging five meets in twenty days, the Aggie tracksters showed much promise and success and a number of out¬ standing stars made their appearance in the firmament. The Texas and Rice Relay games furnished the first com¬ petition of the year, but the Farmer success was not out¬ standing; although Kennedy took first place in one hurdle race at Fiouston, the mile relay team won second place. Texas University, with their superiority in the jumps and pole vault managed to nose out the Thinly-clads in the first real dual meet of the season. Several conference records were battered. In the next meet the S. M. U. Mustangs came to College and for the first few events ran neck and neck with the Aggies. As the meet progressed, however, the home boys pulled farther and farther ahead to win by a nice lead. Hooper, Mustang star, won both the half and the mile races, bettering the Conference time in the half and approaching it in the mile. For the Aggies, Parker ran a beautiful quarter-mile race to win and Bartlett and McKenzie made a clean sweep of the shot-put and the discus. The winning of this meet helped atone for the de¬ feat suffered in the meet with the Longhorns, and gave the Aggies confidence for their meet with Rice. Burgess finishes strong in relay Page 250 ilil iUii.i nh.iJii M.ilihuiiiife Track and Field, 102,7 The closest meet of the year was the one staged at Houston with Hjertberg’s ambitious and rapidly developing Rice Owls. Dope gave an even break to both teams but the Farmers managed to nose out in a brilliant meet. The final score stood at 64 to 53 in favor of the Aggies. Supe¬ riority in the hurdles and shot-put and discus again put the proteges of Coach Anderson on the winning side. O’Neil’s victory in the quarter-mile was the feature. This event was supposed to be monopolized by Captain Ernest Parker of the Aggies and Nelson Greer of the Owls, but Parker’s team-mate, O’Neil, flashed to the tape in 50.2 seconds to win a beautiful race. Greer was a close second, and Parker was third. Rice took the mile relay in 3:25.9 when Nelson Greer. Hjertberg’s crack quarter-miler, overcame a seemingly hopeless lead given Burgess, Aggie anchor man, by the three preceding Farmer runners, and dashed to the finish line some three yards ahead. Smiley started against Parker, conference quarter-mile record holder in the mile event, which was the final number of the meet. Parker led Smiley by ten feet and the Aggie team held that lead until the final 100 yards when Greer turned loose his sensational burst of speed to finish in front in one of the most exciting events of the meet. In fact this was one of the best races of the season.

The feature race of the afternoon was the quarter- mile. Captain Parker of the Aggies was doped to be beaten and his last year’s Conference record bettered. The record was bettered but it was done by “the Crazy Boy” himself— to set a new mark of 49.1 seconds. One of the upsets of the meet was the defeat of the Aggie mile relay team by Texas, largely due to a superb race turned in by Cockrell. Ken¬ nedy of A. and M. took second in both hurdle races. Six Conference records were bettered and one equaled in the meet. The order in which the teams finished was as fol¬ lows: Texas, 583 ; A. and M. 33 2; Rice, 23; S. M.U., SOkik Baylor, 12; T. C. U., 1034; Arkansas, 7. The Aggies turned in a beautiful card in the track events, but it was the same old story in the field. For a number of years our teams have been one-sided this way, weak in the field. If we can maintain our standard on the track and build our field events up to that standard we will again begin winning championsh ' os.

He also delivered a lecture in the Assembly Hall on what comprises a good athlete. Charlie Paddock shows them how Page 256 Track and Field, iQ2,y With a hard schedule of meets ahead of them the Farmer track aspirants are laboring daily in an effort to show up Paavo Nurmi, Charlie Paddock, and all the other great ones. The holding of the Conference meet at Texas University this spring means that the Aggies will put forth every effort to take high honors, and this is a tough assign¬ ment in view of the competition sure to be met. Last year the Texas Longhorns carried off the championship with one of the best teams in the history of the Southwest. They will have another good team this year, but Anderson has strengthened his squad of Farmers and will give them a hard run for first place, with a very good chance of winning the Conference meet. The squad will be stronger this year than last in the dashes and distances but it is still somewhat weak in the field events. Track has just begun to come into its own in the last few years and this season looks like the most popular one the track has ever enjoyed. As the Longhorn goes to press the Aggie Track Team of 1928 has begun what looks to be one of its most successful seasons in several years, Excellent showings were made at the relays in both Austin and Houston, and in the first dual meet of the season the Farmers upset the dope and defeated the Longhorns. The prospects for a Conference championship are very bright.

He has worked with the material on hand and developed men of ordinary ability into college stars. Twice has his club finished second in the conference. The prospects of the 1927 baseball team were very bright. Eight lettermen returning from a team that finished second in the conference the preceding year, were to form the backbone of what was to be A. and M.’s greatest baseball team. The team got off to a good start, winning six games, then slumped, losing one to S. M. U. and two to Texas University. This midseason slump cost them the conference championship. Front row —AIistrot, Baker, Broiles, Schueneman, Bernhard, Bryant, Harris, Gorman, Bray Middle row —Hillen, Hunt, Williamson, Schow, Tucker (Capt.), Sikes. Blount, Wyman, Clark Back row —Coach Rothgeb, Kaleen, Holmes, Mount, Ewing, McConaughey, Miller, Hillen Page 260 Baseball, 102.7 f ' TT ' HE Aggies opened the season by defeating the House JL of David club, 15-2. Hillen and Wyman were on the mound for the Aggies, while Stull and Miller worked for the bearded visitors. Blount, Schow and Baker led the attack for the home club, their total being ten of the club’s thirteen hits. Next, the Waco Cubs of the Texas League journeyed into out midst for a two-game series, but the best they could do was to lose the initial game 4-3, and win the second 1-0. Both games were fast and well played. Hillen went the entire route for the Aggies in the first game and held the visitors to six hits and three runs, Aggie misplays giving the Cubs two of their runs. Waco scored first in the fourth inning, but the Aggies came back and scored two on Baker’s double and Tucker’s home run. Nig Schueneman with two hits and two walks was the batting star of the day. Baker and Tucker also got two hits apiece. The winning run came in the inning when Schuene¬ man singled, scoring Tucker from second. The second game was not decided until the ninth inning when Shires of the Cubs hit one to left field, scoring Vigare from second. Shires was out at the plate attempting to complete the circuit. Sikes pitched the first six innings for the Aggies and held the Cubs hitless. Wyman relieved him and gave up three hits in three innings, two of them being bunched in the ninth inning for the winning run. Caldwell pitched a fine game for the Cubs, holding the Aggies to two hits. Capt. Tucker Shortstop Page 26 Captain Tucker Shortstop Baseball, icpj npHE Aggies opened the Conference season by winning from Rice, 6-5. Hillen was on the mound for the home club and with the exception of the third inning pitched masterful ball. In this inning, Rice scored all their runs when Hillen developed a streak of wildness. The Aggies had their big inning in the second when Baker and Tucker reached first on errors, then Sikes doubled, Schue- nemann sacrificed, Williamson, Blount and Schow singled to score four runs. Another run came in the fourth as the result of singles by Williamson, Blount and Schow. The winning run was made after two were out, Baker tripled and scored on an infield error. Winning the second game from Rice 3-1, the Aggies made a clean sweep of the two-game series played on Kyle Field. The pitching of Decamera featured the playing of the Owls, the Owl twirler holding the Aggies to two hits, Broiles getting both of them. Sikes worked for the Aggies and allowed six scattered hits. The Aggie scored twice in the first, Williamson led off with a walk, and the Rice infield made three errors to account for the runs. Successive doubles by Decamera and Tolle gave Rice their only run. The Aggies scored their final run of the game in the fifth on a walk and singles by Schow and Broiles. Williamson Field Aggies pull 11 hit and run play Page 262 Baseball, 102.7 The Aggies split a two-game series with T. C. U. at Ft. Worth. T. C. U. won the first game 5-1, Carson allowing the Aggies but three hits. Coach Rothgeb sent Hillen to the mound, and with the exception of the fifth inning he pitched excellent ball. His wildness and mis¬ handling of the bunts caused his downfall. The Aggie infield fielded in midseason form, making several spec¬ tacular stops. They cut off a T. C. U. rally in the first inning with a fast double play,—second to short to first. Coupling hits with errors, the Aggies evened their two-game series with the Horned Frogs, 5-2. Wyman pitched a masterful game, allowing only four hits and striking out six. Baker tripled in the first inning to drive in three runs. Singles by Hunt and Wyman, a walk to Sikes, and Tucker’s sacrifice accounted for two more in the fourth inning. Wyman stopped a Frog rally in the sixth by striking out Wolfe with two on. The Aggies defeated S. M. U. a double-header in Dallas 3-0 and 7-4. The game was an old-fashioned hurling duel between Hume for S. M. U. and Sikes for A. and M. Hume allowed five hits and Sikes four, with neither side scoring until the ninth. Singles by Tucker and Clark, scarifices by Sikes and Schuenemann and an error gave the Aggies three runs and the game in the ninth. Sikes retired the side in order in the last of the ninth when he forced Kimbrough to hit into a double play, second to short to first. Captain-elect Broiles Field Baker scores against S. M. U. Page 263 SCHUENEMANN Catcher Blount Second Base Baseball, 192,7 The Aggies showed their first real batting attack in defeating S. M. U., 7-4, in the second game. Hillen gave up five hits but was given miserable support, the Aggies making five errors behind him. In the second, Baker walked, Hunt sacrificed, Tucker safe on an error, Schuene- mann and Hillen singled to score two runs. Baker hit for three bases, scoring Schow ahead of him, in the third. Hillen and Williamson singled with the bases full to score four runs in the fourth inning. A fast double play stopped an S. M. U. rally in the ninth. S. M. U. came to College Station and split a series with the Aggies, 12-2 and 1-2. The first game of the series was won by the Aggies and was a close game until the fourth inning when Baker doubled; Tucker, Sikes, and Clark singled for two runs. The Aggies had two five-run rallies, featured by Clark’s three-bagger which cleaned the bases in the fifth inning. Wyman pitched consistent ball, allow¬ ing four hits and striking out five. The Aggies went down in defeat behind faultless pitching when S. M. U. won by a close score, 2-1. Two errors and a single gave S. M. U. a run in the first inning. Their other run came as the result of a misjudged fly-ball in the outfield with Dublin on third base. The Aggies’ only run came in the eighth, Blount singled and scored on Schow’s double. Williamson led the attack with three singles. Errors caused Sikes his first defeat of the year. WSk A close play at home Page 264 Baseball, 192,7 Errors and a short left-field fence caused the Aggies to lose a two-game series to Texas U., 4-10 and 3-5. Hillen started the first game but had to be relieved by Bryant after the Longhorns had scored eight runs. The Long¬ horns hit three home-runs for six runs. Schow, who got four singles, and Williamson, who got a home run, were the hitting stars of the day. Texas won the second game, 5-3, thus practically eliminating the Aggies from the championship. To be exact the Aggies made nine errors behind Wyman, who pitched a great game, allowing only six scattered hits. Again the short fence proved the undoing of the Aggies for Olle, Longhorn third baseman, hit for the circuit with two on to give Texas a lead the Aggies failed to overcome. An Aggie rally fell short in the ninth; Hillen singled to score Baker, but the next two men went out in order and another game had been kicked away. With the score standing 4-3 against them, the Aggies staged a seventh-inning rally to defeat T. C. U., 7-4. Wyman, on the mound for the Aggies, gave a cool per¬ formance in twirling, despite the fact that the visitors got three runs in the first and one in the second frame. He allowed ten hits but they were scattered, and T. C. U. was unable to score after the second inning. Baker and Sikes led the hitting attack, while Tucker fielded in grand style. Hillen Pitcher Clark Field and Second Base Blount lays one down Page 265 Sikes Pitcher and First Base WUMAN Pitcher Baseball, 192-7 In winning from T. C. U., 8-5, the Aggies made it three games won out of a four-game series. Hillen started for the Aggies but had to be relieved in the sixth by Bryant when he developed a streak of wildness. Brewster worked for the visitors and with the exception of the seventh inning pitched a good game. The Aggies had their big inning in the seventh when they scored five runs. Blount’s single followed by Baker’s triple, singles by Broiles, Clark, Tucker, and Sikes, and a sacrifice by Schuenemann accounted for the runs in the seventh. The Aggies divided a two-game series with Rice and in doing so lost all hope for a championship, the scores: A. and M., 2-7, and Rice, 4-3. Wyman worked for the Aggies and deserved a better fate, e rrors causing his down¬ fall. Broiles’ triple and Clark’s accounted for a run in the second and Schuenemann’s single followed by Baker’s hit scored the other. Baker, Broiles, and Clark led the hitting attack with two hits apiece. The second game started with a rush, the Aggies scoring four runs in the first inning. Sikes and Hillen alternated in the box and outfield, when one got too wild the other would come in and relieve him. Sikes, Tucker, Blount, Clark, and Broiles each got two hits. Tucker, also, starred in the field, accepting nine chances without a bobble. Page 266 Baseball, 102.7 The Aggies ended the season on Kyle Field, dividing a two-game series with Texas University. Errors again caused Sikes to lose another close game, Texas beating him 2-1. The offensive of the Aggies was very quiet during the first seven innings, only one man reaching first base. They scored their only run in the ninth when Hillen walked and scored on Clark’s hit. Clark led the hitters of the day, getting three hits in four trips to the plate. The Uni¬ versity scored their first run in the second as the result of Baumgarten’s triple and Hopkins’ single. The other came from a hit, a sacrifice, and an error. Now comes the final page of sport history to be written by men of the Class of ’27 as a member of an A. and M. team. They wrote on this final page, A. and M. 3—Texas 0. Hillen pitched the best game of his career, allowing but two hits and striking out five. The Aggies scored twice in the fourth, Broiles walked, and Baker, Kaleen, and Hillen followed with singles. The last run came in the eighth, when Schuenemann was hit by a pitched ball followed by a walk and an error. Hillen was given perfect support and fast fielding by the infield cut off several would- be hits. Captain Tucker, Hillen, Schuenemann, Baker, Clark, and Bryant, well satisfied with the afternoon’s work, turned in their uniforms for the last time. Schow Field Kaleen Field Williamson doubles to left center Page 267 Freshman Baseball npHE season started with about a hundred and twenty-five “Fish” reporting Jb to Coach Bender. After several weeks the squad was cut to forty; the outstanding men of this group were Wendt, Harris, Kasprowicz, Holleron, Menger, Cody, Dittman, Jefferies, Lackey, Conover, Lockett, and Brown.

They fought, though it may be termed a running fight, every other team in the conference to a standstill. The long-winded gentry who took the rest of the conference runners out for a dusting are as follows: Childers (Capt.), Haile, Killian, Avila, Thompson, Moore and Shoemaker. These fellows deserve the greatest kind of commendation, for theirs is not a spectacular pastime, but rather one of the most grinding of all the sports. There is no cheering section to aid their flying legs, they have only that indomitable Aggie will to win and inborn tenacity of purpose that will allow of no interference. Training must be constant and strict, prac¬ tice must be regular and hard, and as a result of such train¬ ing and practice on their part we Aggies are able to boast of two conference championships! Thus does history re¬ peat itself, for two years ago we won the championship in both football and cross-country. Coach Anderson is de¬ serving of much credit for producing two teams of cham¬ pionship caliber in three years. Captain Childers The start Page 271 Avila J The Aggie Cross-Country team opened their season last fall on their own sand pile, taking the Texas Longhorns to a cleaning of 18 to 45. In this meet the Aggies ran in a bunch, finishing seven men out of the first eight places. The race was led by Killian who had been leading the squad all season, followed by Avila, Haile and Thompson. The race finished between halves of the Aggie-S. M. U. football game. On November 11 in Houston the Aggie Cross-Country team had their second combat of the season. They met the Owl mud hens just before the Aggie-Rice football game began. The Aggies lost this meet to the Owls by a close score of 28 to 29. This defeat was probably due to the course over which they ran, it being all paved road. The Aggies had been running on a dirt road all season and were not equipped with shoes properly soled to run on pavement. This might seem but a trivial matter to the casual observer, but there is as much difference there as there is in walking in street shoes and on stilts. The close¬ ness of the score proves that had the kind of shoes made only a very slight difference, the Aggies would have won the meet. Killian Nearing the Finish Page 272 The Cross-Country runners of the Southwestern Con¬ ference met in Dallas for their final competition. The Aggies well remembered what had happened in Houston the week before and were determined to get revenge. At the same time they realized that the Owls had a squad of good runners in Brunson, Chitwood, and Greer, and that they were going to be hard to beat. The Aggies had no star runners to boast of, but had a team that ran to¬ gether. In this meet the Aggies had more to contend with than the Owls because the Longhorns, Mustangs, and Horned Frogs were also running. However, it seemed that the Aggies and Owls had in the strongest bids for the championship, which the Aggies won by a score of 33, Owls 44, Longhorns 71, and Mustangs 83. The Horned Frogs had two men running, and they were after experience, which they got lots of before the race was over. The Aggies finished five men in the first ten places. This is indeed a record to be proud of. It shows that Coach Anderson had welded together a well-balanced set of runners, none of them world-beaters, but each one capable of making a creditable showing. But this is characteristic of Aggie teams, co-ordination of effort and purpose, the greatest as¬ set any team can have.

Fresh from the university, with plenty of vim, vigor, hopes and ambitions, Mr. Penberthy was just what our Intramural Athletics needed to arouse it from its lethargy. Scudday Junior Manager He wasted no time, but began immediately to put his new ideas into practice. As a result the intramural program for the past year was the most successful in the history of the college. The average person would have been satisfied, but not “Penny.” With the beginning of the new school year he had many new sports to introduce to the students, each with wonderful success. At present the Intramural Athletic Depart¬ ment embraces almost every con¬ ceivable sport. Truly, Mr. Penberthy is doing a wonderful work and we wish him all the success in the world. Holmes Jimior Manager Page ISO Intramural Athletics FOOTBALL CHAMPIONS, 1927 npHE intramural football season of this year was one of the most successful that the college has ever known. There wasn’t a weak team in school and the championship wasn’t decided until the last day. The three outstanding teams were the First Battalion, Cavalry, and Artillery. The First Battalion, the champions, had a wonderful team and slashed through the season with only one defeat, that at the hands of the Artillery. Outstanding players on the team were Dodge, Neubauer and Walker in the line, and Putnam, Clews and Johnston in the backfleld. The Cavalry, who set the pace until the last game, also had a very good team and although torn up by Varsity Baseball and Track, and injuries, finished in a tie for second place. Outstanding players were Stitiler, Stevens and Sellers in the backfield, and Vandervoort and Hable in the line. The Artillery, the team that beat the champions, was an in-and-out team, today unbeatable, tomorrow no good. The outstanding players were Day and Oliver in the backfield and the Criswell brothers and Smith in the line.

A new idea which enabled every company to enter a team instead of one team for every battalion was responsible for the added interest, and it enabled many more men to participate. Under this system, the teams were divided into four leagues with six teams to the league, and as a whole, the teams were evenly matched. The season was brought to a thrilling close by the team representing Troop C winning a sensational victory over Battery B in the championship game by the close score of 26-23. Troop C, which was ably coached by “Buster” Keeton of the Aggie basket ball team, was composed of the following players: Russell, Hoke, Lamb, Skaggs, Martin, Cotton and Hardcastle. Of these men, five made their numerals on the Fish basket ball team. Standing —Keeton, Coa ch; Hoke, Skaggs, Martin Hardcastle, Cotton, Russell, Lamb Page 282 ions 1TNTRAMURAL CROSS-COUNTRY brought out more entrants this year than ever before, JL 85 men entering. Each company entered a team. Fish Windsor of the infantry was the first man to come in. The meet was won by Troop B Cavalry, who placed men in the fourth, seventh and tenth positions. It seems to be a coincidence that these three men, all freshmen, were room¬ mates. These men should prove to be of great value to the varsity track team in the future. Sudderth, Kidd, Williams, Milner Intramural Playground Ball Champions TnWAYGROUND BALL met with much approval last year. Everybody, who knew what a Jt baseball was, played it and after supper the campus was littered with ball games. Twenty- two team s participated, these teams being divided into four leagues. The league champions were Companies G, H, A Signal Corps and Troop D. These teams were matched and Co. H and Co. A Signal Corps both won their games. These two teams played for College Champion¬ ship, Company H winning after a very hard-fought game. Playground Ball is one of the most popular sports in the program and this year much interest will be taken and the race promises to be close.

Grammer Grand Sultan Chancellor of Exchequer f’Tp ' HE One Buttoneers Club was re-organized last fall, reviving the club started a few years ago expressly for men, who by virtue of their non-military ability and tactfulness in handling problems that did not interest them whatsoever, have the honor of wearing one button and belong to the basic foundation of all armies, the shave-tail class. The club diverted from the routine list of officers and decided to have every member of it an officer. All officers other than the Grand Sultan and Chancellor of the Exchequer were to be Grand Viceroys. These men, because of their aforementioned ability, decided to throw a Bowery Dance or Shave-Tail Struggle between terms that would have tested the mettle of even the toughest of eggs from the Old East Side. As for the other activities of the club one would have to use page after page to describe the military exhibitions and reviews they put on during the year honoring such noted visitors as Doc Asbury, Bind- lergh and others.

This is that individualistic group that hand in experiments and note books late, and then stay for our famous “D” exams. That mob, the mis¬ understood mass, that is many times falsely accused, but more often just does those things around here that keep this spot of isolated semi-civil¬ ization from being one constant Sun¬ day afternoon. %3j- 15?

Who, when I meet with some mishap, Will plasters on my bruises strap And faintly murmer “Poor old chap?’’ Who, when I catch a beastly cold, My recklessness will softly scold, And blankets round my form enfold? Who sits beside my armchair now, And soothes my overheated brow— So gently that I know not how? Hell —-no one. Page 371 FRIDAY Arrived at College all safe and sound and, as usual, “Pat” and “Dooley” were late. Finally we saw them stroll casually out of one of those small square houses near the railroad tracks so we went to meet them. We had a wonderful room at the A. and M. Hotel. The dance started at 9 and was held in the next to the largest dining room. The Aggieland played. Met more cute boys; and Football players, well they were just there. I’ll never forget that cute Bob Brum- mit in the orchestra, he just played so hard. I had the intermission with that big, wonderful Bill Morgan. (He almost got sentimental and I was so thrilled.) Had a late date with Harry Davidson, he’s a polo player, or something grand. A very interesting date, told me about his travels and all about Mexico. Went to bed at 4:30. SATURDAY Early this morning someone blew a cornet awfully loud and woke us up. Rode around that day in somebody’s car. Went in the big dining room and saw everybody eating, but the food didn’t look very appetizing to me but everybody was eating it so it must have been good. The dance started at 9 and lasted till 12. Had a wonderful time. Met some cute Seniors; a real black-headed boy named Tony something, a red-headed one named Rusty and one that talked real slow, his name was Strode, I think, and then I met a whole lot of Sophomores. Had to leave the dance early so that we could catch the midnight train. We had a wonderful visit to A. and M., hope we are invited again. NOTE: (This is a true account with a few alterations.)

' T ' he World’s Largest Store is a greater factor in the prosperity of A Texas than is generally realized. We sell to and buy from the citizens of this state more merchandise than any other one institution. Our Dallas store brings to Texas all the money-saving advantages coming from the buying power of our entire chain of big stores dealing with eleven million customers throughout the country. It is under the same management and offers the same big values as all our other stores at Chicago, Philadelphia, Kansas City, Minneapolis, Atlanta, Memphis, Los Angeles and Seattle, and the guarantee of our entire organization is behind every purchase made by our customers. We also contribute to Texas prosperity by using a vast quantity of her products. For example, we use upwards of eighty million pounds of cotton in the auto tires, wearing apparel, canvas footwear, bedding, floor covering, tents, awning, tarpaulins and dry goods we sell, and a big share of this cotton comes from Texas.

They instinctively trust the leadership built by quality. The clean, clear, golden Texaco is as natural a motor oil for them as the good lines of the cars they drive or the clothes they wear. By itself they might not give more than a passing thought to the color, but with a world-known name shining through it—they are content. On the Road, or on the Avenue, they naturally roll up to the Texaco Red Star and Green T for lubrication service.

TTT HEN the “bus” starts eating gas, groans when she sees a hill, and squeaks out loud now and then from her under¬ trimmings—there’s no getting away from it, she needs Humble Motor Oil. Steer her to the next “first aid” station you see—you’ll know it by the Humble Signs. Ask the “doc” for the particular Humble Oil suited to the ol’ bus’s age and breed; and give her a shot or two where she needs it. Then feel her come to life. Perks up and slips away as lithe as a coyote. Humps over the prairies. Laughs at the hills. Takes you where you want to go, and back again in a jiffy. If your bus is a new one, with one of the mile - a - minute high compression motors under the hood, you need Humble Motor Oil more than ever. It’s as tough as a pinto. To be sure you are getting it, buy only where you see the Humble Signs. Humble Oil Refining Company HOUSTON TEXAS Page 382 3 JA(obles of cl THENS Enjoyed not one-tenth of the luxuries offered you.

It has been a power¬ ful factor in the progress of the State which fosters it and wh ich it abundantly serves. Texas will not be all Nature meant it to be until agri¬ culture, horticulture and other pursuits of the open spaces shall be more than making a passing grade with industry creating a balanced whole. All energies of “A. and M.” are directed to that end. In nothing has this been more conclusively demonstrated than by its active sponsorship of a survey of relations of electricity to agriculture. Electric lights and power are as essential to the farm as to the town and the growth of rural electrification in this country’s territory has amazed people of other sections of the country. It was but a happy incident, of course, that the first report of the director of the survey should have dealt with this Company’s aid in creating green acres where mesquite grew before. Education blazes the farmer’s onward and upward trail. Transmission lines make that pathway enjoyable and more profitable. 35 Central Power Light Company .SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS Page 429 I In Texas, Our Store sets the standard in Style and Quality for things men wear.

San Antonio Texas At An Increasing Pace JN the beginning electricity was looked upon more as a curiosity than as a power that would, in a few years, revolutionize industry. No one ever suspected that it would sweep the country with a low priced power that would bring unprecedented prosperity. The truth of the principle of large-scale production and low prices has been solidly proved by the electric light and power companies. The continued progress of our country at increasing pace will largely depend on the freedom with which the utilities are allowed to use individual initiative.

He can’t get it when he is sick. He can’t get it when he is old. He can’t get it when he is down and out. When a man says he doesn’t need Insurance, he is telling the truth.

Come out to the stable—it is not far; The moss-grown door is hanging ajar, Look within! There’s an empty stall, Where once stood a charger, and that’s all. The good black horse came riderless home, Flecked with blood-drops as well as foam; See yonder hillock where dead leaves fall; The good black horse pined to death—that’s all. All? O God! It is all I can speak; Question me not—I am old and weak; His sabre and saddle hang on the wall; And his horse pined to death—I have told you all. —Anonymous.
