By TIMOTHY O’MALLEY
Sure, and ’tis St Patrick’s Day, and the loyal sons of old
Erin the world over have donned shamrock green to pay
homage to the memory of their patron saint. 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.

The resignation of James No
ton, editor of the Texas Aggie, was
announced today by the A&M For
mer Students Association. He is
leaving A&M to accept a position
as agricultural teacher in his home
town of Austin.
A graduate of the class of 1941,
Noton has been editor of the Texas
Aggie since October 1, 1947. While
doing undergraduate work here, in
agricultural administration he was
a member of “F” Company; Infan
try rind served as intramural man
ager. 1 ! ;
During the war, he saw most of
his service with the 2nd Infantry
Division, in the capacity of platoon
leader, company commander, liai
son officer, aide-de-campe to the
regimental commander, and finally
regimental adjutant.
Taking over the former students’
publication will be H. Sylvester
Boone of Needville, Texas. Boone

in variety from the
German Club to the Ku

The first social group on the
campus was the Stephen F.
literary Society, which met
tafly for debates. The
must have been hot ones:
defts felt that the presence
y members would be a
discussion and asked tha
sponsor o the society b^ba
from meetings.
jj In 1878, only two years after the
founding of both the colleg# and
time practically every Aggie hi
been a member of one or another
group. By 1904, interest had gone
into other club*. Fr’instance:

The Kala Kinasis German Club

large group was the
Swastika Dancing Club. 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
