"THE DALLAS MOTHERS’
CLUB PLAN.
By starting the Dallas A. and M.
Mothers’ Club Loan Fund the moth-
ers of Dallas boys students at A. and
M. have taken a far reaching step.
Already their fund, only a week old
has more than $100 in it and by fall
the chances are that the fund will
be close to $1,000. The Dallas
Mothers plan to urge men and wo-
men who have no special ties to the
A. and M. College but who wish to
invest in the lives of young men to
assist in the building up of their
fund. Teas, rummage sales, and
various other ingenious plans will be
followed for the purpose of accumu-
lating funds for this purpose.
It is hoped that the Fort Worth,
Houston, San Antonio, and other
Mothers’ Clubs will follow suit and
that soon the mothers of boys will
have provided several thousand dol-
lars with which to help serious mind-
ed young men to enjoy the prive-
leges and opportunities of training
at A. and M.
OF INTEREST TO COLLEGE MEN
Announcement of a special ser-
vice for college men in the way of
greatly reduced fare to Europe by
the Cunard line has been received
by The Aggie. The new arrange-
ment and rates make it possible for
many persons to go to Europe who
otherwise would be unable to make
the trip on account of expenses.
There will be three sailings during
the summer months where the en-
tire third cabin accomodations will
be reserved for the exclusive use of
tourists, college students and grad-
uates. The round trip rate for meals
and accomodations, etec., will be
$170.
ANOTHER AGGIE IS
BOY SCOUT LEADER
E. L. Bruce 96, is another Aggie
who is engaging in the splendid work
of helping out with Boy Scout work.
Bruce is president of the Orange
Local Council and devotes a great
deal of time to the success of the
work in that city. He has been head
of the Council for four years accord-
ing to J. P. Mestrezat, scout execu-
tive at Orange.
E. E. SENIORS HEAR
INTERESTING TALK
BY JOE PROCTOR, ’10
One of the most interesting lec-
tures ever delivered to the members
of the electrical engineering senior
group at the College was that given
this week by Joe Proctor, E. E. grad-
uate of the College who now is in
charge of the patent and development
work of the Westinghouse people at
Pittsburg. Joe graduated in 1910 in
the first class over which Dean Bolton
presided at the College. Later he re-
turned to the institution and taught
for two years in the E. E. department
taking in 1914 his Electrical Engi-
neers degree.
Proctor is at the head of the patent
and development work for the West-
inghouse people and his talk here was
along the lines of the new things that
are to be in the way of electrical de-
vices and utilization. He was on his
way from the Pacific Coast back to
Pittsburg having been west in the in-
terest of some new patents there
which he hopes to develop for com-
mercial use through his firm.

sent word that they would be here for
these exercises. §
The Y. M. C. A. will be set aside for
the use of former students and their
families and some small private rooms

dents are urged to drop by informally
for this hour. The hours will be from

fact that the second largest class in
the history of the College will be grad-
uated this year. The class is com-
posed of 211 candidates for the de-
gree of B. S. Of that number 119 are
in the school of engineering, 84 in

PALESTINE EXES GIVE PARTY
FOR HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES
In one of the peppiest parties ever
staged in Anderson county the A. and
M .Club of that county Monday night
of this week sold the College to
twenty-eight members of the high
school graduating class. Palestine has
long been an A. and M. town and since
the birth of the local club of the ex-
students has been in operation over
there Aggieland stock has gone up
materially.
Under the direction of the president
H. L. Wright, a member of the Class
of ’86, M. F. Ward, secretary, who also
is secretary of the Business Men’s
League, and Bonner Frizzell, super-
intendent of Public Instruction, the
Anderson county exes staged a party
at Spring Lake, a few miles out from
town. Every boy in the graduating
class was on the job and was loud in
his praises of the College and the
work of the ex-students there.
After a good dinner a number of the
high school boys made talks and these
were followed by informal talks by
a group of the “old timers.” Ike Ash-
burn, executive secretary of the As-
sociation of Former Students, told of
the spirit of the institution and for
the benefit of the ex-students present
outlined the purposes and programs
of the Association.
John T. Carlisle newly appointed
county agent then led a few yells and
a song or two, the yells being better
known to the high school boys than
they were to the former students.
“Nemo” Knapp, county agent at Jack-
sonville and R. R. Childs also of that
town drove over for the meeting. Sang-
ster Bizzell had planned on being
present but was unable to be there on
account of a meeting of the City
Council at Jacksonville where he is
city engineer.
Former students present were Bon-
ner Frizzell, instructor at the College
in ’11 and ’13; B. F. Gray, "23; T. L.
Horn, ’99; Wm. H. Dupuy, ’19; Homer
H. Avant, ’16; H. L. Wright, ’96; M.

C. W. WILLIAMS ’15 BACK
IN SCHOOL.
Clayton W. Williams (Dough Wil-
liams) is back in college as a stu-
dent after an absence of nine years
from the campus. “Dough” lacked
about three hours of completing his
electrical engineering course in ’15.
He entered the law school at the
University of Texas in the fall of
’15 being a Junior law student. He
attended the first training camp at
Leon Springs in 1917 and was com-
missioned in the Coast Artillery sec-
tion and assigned to trench mortar
duty. After completion of the first
trench mortar school at Bourges,
France, he was assigned to duty with
the 117 Trench Mortar Battery for
duty with the 42nd Division.
He returned to the states in March
1919 and after his discharge from
the army became assistant engineer
for the Oil Belt Power Co., at East-
land. Since that time he has served
in various engineering capacities in
New Mexico, Fort Stockton and San-
derson. He will be able to receive
his degree in June and then will re-
turn to Sanderson where he has
some federal projects on from which
duty he has been given leave of ab-
sence for the purpose of completing
the work for his degree.

1924 LONGHORN
IS DISTRIBUTED
ARTISTIC BOOK
Present Class Publishes Exceptionally
Appealing Year Book._ Is Dedi-
sated to Ike Ashburn.
The 1924 Longhorn has been re-
ceived and distributed. It is an ex-
ceptionally handsome and artistic
book and from the standpoint of
subject matter has not been excelled.
R. H. Sherman is editor, Zay Smith,
art editor, and J. F. Baker business
maneger. The book was distributed
on May 12, setting a splendid record
for early delivery. The organization
of the book is the standard organiza-
tion including classes, military, ath-
letic, etc. The decorative scheme is
medieval and is exceptionally well
worked out. :
The Vanity Fair section is espec-
ially good, a new departure being that
the prettiest girl, ete., were designat-
ed by Mr. Harrison Fisher, well known
artist and judge of beauty in woman-
hood.
The book is dedicated to “Col. Ike
Ashburn, Commandant,” and bears
testimony to his “service to the insti-
tution” and of the affection and es-
teem of the Senior Class. The 1920
Longhorn also was dedicated to Ash-
burn, who on Jan. 1 became executive
secretary of the Association of For-
mer Students of the College after a
four and one-half years service as
commandant.

gate from the City is planning to be

FOR PRESIDENT
“Bill’ Orth and “Bill” King Also Will

City A. & M. Club.
San Antonio A. and M. Club has
got a new president. W. K. “Runt”
Hanson is the newly elected prexy of
the Alamo City Exes and if “Ole
Runt” don’t make ’em keep alive over
there, something surely will happen.
“Runt” was chosen president without
opposition succeeding George P.
Knox, Knox Nurseries, who has turn-
ed in a splendid year as the Aggie
leader in San Antonio.
The Alamo City boys lined up a
bunch of live ones for officers at their
election last week. They run strong
to “Bills”. W. A. “Bill” Orth, build-
ing contractor, was elected as first-
vice-president. W. C. “Bill” King
was chosen secretary treasurer. Both
“Runt” Hanson and “Bill” King are
engaged in landscape afchitecture and
both are putting the job over.
‘A strong executive committee com-
posed of Judge W. A. Wurzbach, A.
A. Wright, George H. Bridges and
George P. Knox, was chosen.
One of the chief pieces of work
that “Runt” Hanson expects to put
over is with the high school boys at
San Antonio. The organization of a
red hot San Antonio Mothers ~Cigb—"""" "4
is another objective held by the newly
elected officers. Still another is cop-
ping the flag for attendance honors
