AMERICAN LEGION MEMBERS TELL OF FEW EXPERIENCES ~ Clarence C. Braden Elected Post ~~ Commander and C. C. B. Warden, Vice Commander The College Post of the American Legion became a definite part of its members’ thoughts Monday night at its first social gathering. The meet- ing was called to order by Mr. Mayo, as temporary chairman in the Chem- istry lecture room. It was decided unanimously that Major Ike S. Ash- burn should preside over the social hour, and awaiting his arrival, offi- cers for this year were elected. Clarence Braden was made Post ~ Commander; C. C. B. Warden, vice- { National desde desi a a a TRE frefrsielesfoafesfororiofocireirsfrsfeafosfesortoctrcfeets > commander; S. G. West, adjutant: R. H. Ramsey, historian and W. P.

An interesting discussion on the | Bonus Bill now before Congress was | held. Many who are in support of the bill and other#® who are against its spirit gave rather interesting opinions on the measure and al- though Congress has deferred action until after the decisions reached by Conventions have made, the Post held a straw vote to determine the attitude of its mem- bers. Twenty-three voted against and twenty-one for the bill. Major Ashburn presided over the “experience meeting” and after starting the evening with a couple of sky-high stories he quietly related J ofeadocfrsfredecisfafontredrode 3 RE MN 4 Shoe Department.

The members | were called upon one after another | to briefly state their names and or- ganizations, and most thrilling in- |cidents of their war career. There were men who fought the battles of | Travis, Bowie, Taylor, Wheeler, and Leon Springs over here, the battles (of Coniac Hill and the Rest Camp | France; there were men who carry ‘treasured in their hearts the mem- | ories of the S. A. T. C., the C. L O. | T. S., the R. O. T. C., and others who | went down with torpedoed boats go- ling over; men with thorough train- | ing in radio telegraphy who efficient- | ly unloaded car after car of corned beef; there were men who “oot | theirs” two hours after going into faction, and there were others who outside of a bunch of machine gun bullets and high explosive had had no ‘experiences’. | There was laughter and pathos |in the stories of the men who had been an active part of the greatest |of all games. The members of the | College Post know each other now, |and they feel that in the Post they have a common interest, a common responsibility. The hour of mem- ories through the drifting smoke of good cigars has made this Post of the American Legion a vital element 1a the lives of its members. TEXAS BANKERS CALL OFF TRIP TO HAVANA Dallas. — A strike of longshore- men at Havana and needed repairs to the Infanta Isabel, the Spanish steamship which was to have taken {1,000 Texas bankers and their wives and families to Cuba the first week [in May, have made it necessary to | cancel the plans for the ocean trip, |it was announced today by W. A. | Philpott Jr., secretary of the Texas Fang Association. That the asso- ciation had completed its part of the arrangements -was emphasized by Mr. who holds’ epproximately fray the expenses of the trip. cruise was to follow the Texas bank- ers’ thirty-sixth annual convention, which will be held at Hotel Galvez | [in Galveston. The dates of the con- vention have been changed to May 25, 26 and 27. Among the more prominent speak- | ers at the convention will be John G. Lonsdale, president of the National Bank of Commerce of St. Louis: B. D. Harris, formerly of Texas, now |C. T. Smith. The | of the National City Bank of New York; Dr. Robert E. Vinson, presi- dent of the University of Texas; Ed Hall of Bryan, W. H. Patrick of Clarendon, Nathan Adams of Dallas rand Preston B. Doty of Beaumont. There will be a state bank section | meeting presided over by P. A. Mur- ray of Victoria, and a meeting of the Texas chapter of the American Institute of Banking, of which Lu- | ther Crawford of Paris, Texas, will | have charge. : | COMPULSORY MILITARY TRAIN- | ING QUESTION WILL BE DEBAT- ED BY PUBLIC SPEAKING ASSOCIATION There will be no meeting of the Public Speaking Association tonight. The next meeting of the association will be held one week from tonight, April 20. At that time, the subject for discussion will be the compul- sory military training question. E. E. McQuillen, chairman of the pro- gram committee says that in addi- tion to a good debate on the subject there will be speeches by several members of the corps who have had a deal of experience along the lines of military training both at A. and M. and abroad. The military training question is one of the big issues of the day, and although the United States Congress has practically eliminated the com- pulsory feature from the present bill, the question is still a live one at College Station. One of the big points involved is the question of the continued survival of the casual company. Has the casual company justified its continued existence? Has the spirit of the old college been improved or injured by the presence of a non-military, non-saluting, un- disciplined body of men? Has the casual company improved our schol- astic “standing, or put more “pep” into our athletics? These are vital questions that will be answered in connection with the discusion next Tuesday night.
