College is the only state school whose faculty, so far, has made no contribution to the campaign for the educational amend- ment to be voted on next November. Members of the faculties of state institutions have been requested to contribute $1.00 each and most of them have responded. It is earnestly hoped members of the teaching staff and other officers of the college will without delay, call at the Publicity office and give a dol- lar to help defray the expenses of this important campaign.

ME FRESHMAN STOCK JUDGING CONTEST I> ON FOR TODAY The Contest is Being Conducted Un- der the Auspices of the Saddle and Sirloin Club The Freshman Livestock Judging Contest is on. Some forty odd first year men are battling today for the honor of representing their College on the Freshman Livestock Judging Team for this year ,while a hundred or more of their less fortunate class- mates, who were unable to make the upper one-third of their respective sections, are eagerly looking on, “doping”’ out the winners and select- ing their favorites in the different: sections. These fellows are careful- ly studying every detail of the con- test and the manner in which it is conducted. Although they were not eligible this year, they are determin- ed that they shall be in the eligible list in the future. The contest is being conducted under the auspices of the Saddle and Sirloin Club. This wide awake club is determined that this shall be the banner contest of all that have ever been held at College Station. It is to be conducted on the same plan as the great International Contest held annually at Chicago. The man- agement has been turned over to members of the 1919 Champion Team and as they have had the ex- perience of having gone through the greatest of all these contests it is ex- pected that they will make this year’s event a revelation to those students and faculty members interested in competitive livestock judging. The management of the contest will be as follows: erintendent; D. L. Stevens, assistant superintendent; Ww. W. Derrick, chief clerk; J .E. Bloodworth, assistant chief clerk; A. J. Neyland, K. 1.
