The party is headed by Robert E. Bondy, director of the Southwestern Division of the American Red Cross with the following from the St. Louis office: Miss Ethel Pinder, director department of nursing; Mrs. Andrew Ashbaugh, Misses Lutie Burkholder, Daisy DeWitt, Clara McCormick, Eth- el Randall, Catherine Sedgwick and |!

The first meeting will be held in | the Y. M. C. A. Chapel at 9:30 this | morning. President Bizzell and T. O. | Walten will speak and following these talks the work of the confer- | ence will be taken up. Representa- | tives of the Red Cross will outline | the work done through the public | health nursing department and the | home demonstration agents will re-| view their work done among the ru- ral communities with suggestions as | to the manner in which there could | be closer co-operation between the | twe agencies.

At 2 o'clock in the afternoon the | cor-ference will be turned into a icund table discussion of the presen- tations made earlier in the morning. The party will leave this afternoon. The conference is the result of sug- gestions made some time ago by, President Bizzell to the American | Red Cross officials that better results | could be obtained if they would co- | operate more closely with the home| demonstration agents in the public] health nursing work. Following his! suggestions Miss Laura F. Neale | slate home demonstration agent of the Extension Service communicated | with Mrs. Ethel Parsons, director of | public health nursing of the Ameri- | can Red Cross of Texas and secured | from her a promise for an early con- | ference. Until Thursday Miss Neale supposed that only state officers | would participate, but she received Thursday morning a notice from Miss | Parsons stating that officials of the js <i at St. Louis | Southwestern Division would come here. l es on the campus for the people who | their own in the college community. { The corporation would { just what control the board of direc- I munity school is t | invited to be present. Dr. F."B: Clark, chairman; ALL COLLEGE PEOPLE INTER- SSTED IN THE PROJECT ARE INVITED TO ATTEND. The committee which was appoint- ed by President Bizzell te recommend | a financial plan whereby employees of the college may purchase their | o2wn homes and also make recommen- | dations for the location of these hemes will meet in the Y. M. C. A. Chapel at 7:30 tonight to report the. result of two conferences held during ! the past week. They will have more | thar one plan to outline to those! yresent and wil] adopt the one favor- | ! able to the majority. The general plan of the project as | criginally outlined by Dr. F. Bj Clark at a conference of campus res- idents held in the Y. M. C. A. Chapel | fas: week was for the formation of a building corporation among the col- lege officials to be known as the A. | & M. College Realty and Construction Company or some other such name for the purpose of constructing hous- are interested in owning a home of | be financed by the sale of stock which would bear 10 per cent interest and anything ov- | er that return into the treasury would be used in the improvement of the! building site. Incorporation could be effected on a capitalization of, | $5,600 or $10,000 and the corporation! houses for initial could proceed to huild people who would make an vear notes for the balance, the cor- | | poration using these notes on which’ | to borrow money to carry on the con-! struction. The person building the house then could pay his notes either | by the month or year. it is realized that the great diffi- calty before the plan is a question of ! location, as it is not definitely known tors has over the college lands. Of { course location off the campus is pos- sible but the locality arcund the com- | he most desirable. | No trouble is expected in arranging | for the convenience of all college utilities, as sewer, lights and water. The committee will have something | definite to report at this meeting and cveryone interested in the project is | of the committee are: AH Leidigh} agronomist, Experiment Sta- tion, secretary; E. B.

The A. and M. Dramatic Club met | at noon yesterday to take the initial steps toward planning the season’s| cetivities. The meeting was called to | crder by Mr. Paul Bimmerman, who | cutlined functions of the officers who | wil! be necessary to form the work- | ing staff of the club. These officers | are to be selected 2nd approved at a | later meeting. They will have charge | of the various brancues of work that | enter into the production of a play | such as acting, lighiing stage me-| chanics, scene-painting, playwriting | stage managing, business manage- | ment, advertising, and music. The chairman then asked Director | Brackett to say a few words to the | members of the club. In the three | minutes allowed him, Diiector Brack- | e¢l emphasized especially the aims of | the club. The immediate aim of the! club is to produce plays that will | the student | body and that will add to the pleas- | vires of life on the campus. This | will be but the simple fulfillment of | the dreams of those seniors and their | aides who strove to make the club a | possibility. They bzlieved that such an organization would enliven stu- | dent life on the campus, and add to | its attractiveness. They also be-| licved that eventually A. and M. | might produce plays that would give | of | craftsmanship and present in an en- lerteining way some of our best! achievements in lighting, mechanical, | and decorative lines. People often | forget that these are important fae- | tors in play building today. In one | . of the large theatre; of New York | the stage alone employs sixty elec- | tricians, thirty-five engineers, scores oi carpenters, and artists, besides Why should not A. and M. offer plays whose lighting ef- fects have been workea out by our lighting experts, whosz scenic de- cigns have been produced by our best artists, and whose mechanical effects have been produced by our best en- gineers, while the acting is done by those most gifted in that line? Stage- craft today embraces a world of ac- our college life. The motto of the elib must be ac- | tivity. The Dramatic Club does not aim at the production of “contempla- tive idiots,” who spend their lives works of others. To justify its ex- isience it must produce, and its pro- please | Tn an endeavor to do this the club | will produce a number of modern | Price,” | Wise | “Tomorow’s ‘Three piaye such as “The Witching Hour,” | Fools,” “Mrs. Leffingwe<lls Boots,” or | “The Gallopers,” and several of the | ; ; : Sup- | more popular one act plays that have | was up to his old tim» form breaking (Continued on Page 2) LARGEST SCORE EVER MADE BY A. & M. GIVES GOOD START FOR SEASON. Playing the second team through the second quarter and the third team through the third quarters A. & M. ran over the Daniel Baker squad here this afternoon and heaped up a totaj score of 110 to their opponents 0. This is the largest score ever made by A. & M. against any other team and gives her 2 long start to better her championship record of lact season. Although the Biownwood boys were pitifully weak, yet the superb- ness of the Aggie =quad was well shown on the field. The strength of the line was evident and the prowess and speed of the backfield surprising. The eonslaughts of Eddie Mahan, Wier and Morris carried them through the Daniel Baker line with a speed that made all resistance regligible. The first team sent in against the Danie] Baker squad scored 35 points in the first quarter. The second team went in and made it 69 before the close of the first half. A third string of Aggie men played a third quarter cut and left the score 75 to nothing. On returning to -the-field at the be- ginning of the fourth quarter the first squad with several of the strong- est members missing worked up an aggressiveness that coon had the score to 110. Mahan on the first play of the game after the kick-off went 60 yards around left end for a touchdown. Ma- han also made 4 of the 16 touchdowns credited to the entire team. It was aimest impossible for the opponents to stop him at any rcint of the game. The whole team almost duplicated the captain’s performances and at no time were any of the Aggie players weak in their defense. Weir and Mar- tin the two old experienced men who have been playing the half-back po- ¢itions performed in their steady, agoressive manner. “Bugs” Morris showed some splendid work in broken field running and at times his burst of speed made it hard for the oppon- ents to follow him. Many new men were surprises to the coaches and spectators and showed up to a great- er advantage due to their wonderful breken field running, but the find of the game was Sammy Sanders who | was first sent in at quarter and then | shifted to half. In these two posl- tions his speed and broken field run- ning was superb. The line was sound as a stone wall at all times. Not 2t any time of the came was the Aggie line pierced. Bob Carruthers did some splendid work at tackle and blocking punts. He alss made one of the touchdowns, af- tor blocking a punt. Drake and Deit- rick did some splendid work in Lreaking up many plays. The Aggie ends were going down the field under punts and kicks dropping their op- ponents in their tracks. “Cap” Murrah (Continued on page four)
