Texas A and M University - El Rancho Yearbook (Kingsville, TX)

Text from Pages 1 - 240 of the 1952 volume:

Time can mean many things. To a senior, there are mem- ories ot the years behind him spent in college and dreams of the future into which he is about to step alone To the freshman, time brings to mind the idea that he has just started an entirely new period of his life. The years ahead in college look bright and he can see only dimly the future. But to all of us come occasional reminders that time is fleeting — that the Moving Finger is busily writing. Time often erases memories from the minds of human be- ings. The hours spent in Texas A l in studying, going to class- es, dancing, enjoying recreation provided in our Student Union, leisure hours in the dorms talking to friends—all of these are things which none of us wants to forget. So, in order that we might help students remember this year at A l, the staff of EL RANCHO has sought to collect and preserve in this volume the many memories we do not want time to dim. Through the portant gifts to have made im- greater service to the youth of the state. To us, these gifts m ay be classified in three ways. which promotes the growth of the college as a whole as well as that of students. Another is the gift of scholarships that help to bring woTthy students to Adi and encourage them to study. And still another, a gift of service and spirit on the part of faculty members and administrators who in countless ways build the morale of students and aid them in the J- and good citizenship. It is to all persons who have made gifts such as these toward the develop- ment of human lives through a greater Adi that we dedicate this 1952 issue of El Rancho. 1951 SEPTEMBER 1951 TUE WBD THI FUI SAT MON Head Cheerleader Jimmy Gause rides the last block of the shirt tall parade race with the Winnah’!

',- n ®5,m, : fT£-j - ADMINISTRATION To the Students of A I George Eliot said, ’'It is easy to say how we love new friends, and what we think of them; but words can never trace out all the fibres that knit us to the old, The proof of that statement will be evidenced in the future to the students who are currently attending Texas College of Arts and industries. The friendships that have been made and the joys and sorrows that have been shared this year will serve as a common bond for the students of A I College. This book will record the events of the year that will strengthen that bond. As you complete your work here may you remember that man's life is not measur- ed by electric clocks, spinning wheels or flying planes. The greatest men of history are those who have done most for their country and thereby rendered the greatest service to mankind. It is true that many of them have acquired much of the world's wealth, but they are remembered most for their sterling characters, high moral standards, and good deeds. May all of you attain that measure of greatness that will cause the friends which you have made to rejoice in your accomplishments. Very Sinderely, Ernest H. Poteet President Board of Directors MEMBERS OF THE A I BOARD OF DIRECTORS give freely of their time, energy and money in many ways to further the progress and the development of A l.

Parade Coronation Directors The Coronation was a gala Mardi Gras, thanks to Reiny and his Royal Ministers. The stage show was written by Reiny in collaboration with George Bogusch and Harvey Dawson. Work on the floats was done by students who vol- unteered their help. Much can be said for the good work of all these people. Pictures were unavailable in time for our deadline of Rose Marie Wolf, chairman of the invitations committee, and George Bogusch, chairman of the staging committee.

The spirit of Mardi Gras was captured through the revelers on stage and the perfect music picked by Reiny. Brought to life by the Court Jester, the crowd of masqueraders made merry for the length of the gala proqram. The Jester's reappearance caused the Mardi Gras to disappear. The trans- parent screen in front of the court during the program lent the appearance of a dream to the whole program. When the revelers had disappeared the screen was removed, revealing the Queen and her court once more. The Coronation of the new Queen, Dorothy Nell, then took place. Masked revelers made a fantastic appearance. Ridge Lindsey, as the cop, chased a gambler through the crowd and out of the auditorium. ORGANIZATIONS Inter-Sorority Council The purpose of the In ter-Sorority Council is to bring the sororities on our campus together. It is composed of two girls selected from each sorority, one faculty member from each group, and the Dean of Women, Mrs, Carrie Bishop. The Council coordinated Rush Week at the first of the fall semester. The Council has a major accomplishment to its credit this year in having freshman girls rushed for pledges in the various sororities for the first time in several years.

TO his teachers and classmates Dutch was a typi- cal A I student. His death was felt by all and he will long be remembered on the A I campus.
