For to the ruddy-faced Irishman and his off-spring, no greater man ever li^ed than St. Patrick. '; t Fyom the streets of Dublin to the bizarre outposts of civilization, the Mbnohans, the Learys, the O’Houlahans, and all their brethren have feasted, danced, paraded, and spent the day in genial merry-making. Good Irish noses glow an unsaintly red as untold quantities of Irish whiskey have been consumed. And good ole College Station has not been left out of the celebration. The Emerald Isle of Brazos County (Col lege Station classifies as an island by virtue of being the only spot in Brazos County two feet above water level in a heavy dew) straight-way made elaborate plans to carry out the theme of the day. . j ! !■ Leading the preparations was the announcement by the mess hall—which was tinged with justifiable pride—that throughout the day all the silverware in the mess hall was to be crusted with green. 1 Also, with utter disregard of cost Jto the students, green foods predominated in today’s menus: green beans, spinach .green peas, and bread bordered with a Wely shade of green mold. , j |! i qj j | Not to be oiitdone, Oldbleed’s, most patronized of the local brew-houses ( announced that until midnight, March 17, only green beer Would be served in this high-class establish ment. Also, only Irish tunes, such as O’Rattler, would be available on the juke box. j Observance of St. Patrick’s Day will result in a musical tribute by the Aggie Rum biers tonight on station WTAW at 7:15. Simpleton O’Toole, student leader of the Rumblers, announced that a special selection of Irish tunes would be played, featuring that sentimental old Irish ballad, -'You Could Tell He Wakllrish by the Green Upon His Teeth." Prof. P. Q. Cantilever announced happily that he had been successful in His own little observance of the Day. “My entire eight o’clock class turned green after taking a good look at a pop quiz j pulled on them," he chuckled. The day was not without life’s little tragedies, however. Of the many students sporting bright green clover leafs in breast pocket button holes, quite a few ran afoul of the bulls for being non-reg. “I almost talked Capt. Kelly out of any rams when he discovered my name is Swartz,” one student reported sadly. ASHVEtoHear H.W.Broadwell Here Thursday iil M.,_ :(■ Over One To Be Here H. W.

At that time, of course, the swastika was a respectable good-luck emblem and Nazis were undreamed of. Strangest' of the dancing clubs was The Stags. Despairing of get ting enough dates out of Bryan, the stags decided to dance with each other once a week, taking turns leading, while a gramophone blared oijit the latest turkey trot. Ku Klux Kten The Ku Klux Klan, which parad ed in robes on the campus, was a sumyal of the Confederate or ganization which functioned in Reconstruction dajrs. As in the case of the Swastika club, there was no oprobrium attached to the name at that time. Each military company had a girl sponsor—generally a faculty daughter or else a girl from Bryan —who once a year gave a recep tion at her home for the entire company, j , . largest “honorary” society was the Veterans of the Lost Cause— stripes and seniors without officers jranki It met once a year to have its picture taken in rag-tag clothing.
