LIBRARY ; CAMPUS FROM THE REVIEWING STAND Research Dept. — More About “Cush” Dear Mac: Note statement in last AGGIE as to origin of word “Cush” as applied to Mess Hall lingo for dessert. With all respect to Wal- ter W. Foster, 91, WHO AFTER ALL. IS. A’ ‘COMPARATIVE YOUNGSTER, this “origin” is all wet. Dan Cushing, during Mr. Foster's A. & M. days, may have contributed to the use of the word “cush”, but here’s the real low down: “I went to A. & M. in 1897 and we called cush—CUSH—You should know better—“Cush” is a term designating a concoction made of corn meal or grits, salt and wat- er, then mixed with bacon gravy. This was used and named by old pioneers long before A. & M. was thought of. The first students at A. & M. were from such pioneer families and being familiar with cush at home, kept right on calling these dessert mixtures “Cush.” When I attended A. & M. we got on Wed- nesday a “stage plank”—this was a section of flat gingerbread about 4x6 or 7 inches,—so much for the record.

THE TEXAS AGGIE “<5 RETURN POSTAGE GUARANTEED oh Published Semi-Monthly Except During the Summer Months when issued Monthly by the Association of Former Students of the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas VOLUME XII COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1943 NUMBER 54 A SPORTSMANS DREAM Bill McMillan Reports On Trip To Rockies EDITOR’S NOTE: When Bill lan, ’22, was requested to report on a “Super” hunting trip he demurred with the objection that no game hunt these days could be of interest when so many thousands of men were engaged in ‘hunts’ of an immeasurably more serious and important nature. The Editor believes, however, that readers of the Aggie at home or abroad will enjoy the story of this trip. With that assurance, hunter McMillan provided the report in good Aggie style. After all, reading about such a trip is next best to going along. Lubbock, Texas Dear Mac: Oct. 4, 1943 I am glad to accede to your re- quest if you think other Aggies might be interested in a report on a recent hunting trip into the Jackson Hole county of Wyoming. Our party consisted of Tyree L. Bell, ’13, and J. F. Hayden, Dallas, G. P. Kuykendall and myself of Lubbock. We were joined later by three other Lubbock friends who spent a portion of their time at the Ramshorn Lodge, twenty miles north of Jackson, where our head- quarters have been on previous trips to that section. Altho the weather was unseason- ably hot and dry we were suc- cessful in bagging deer, elk, and moose in the mountain areas, ante- lope in the sage brush flats, and excellent fishing, duck and goose shooting was had along the beau- tiful Snake River, For the person whose time is limited, I believe this area is the most easily ac- cessible and contains a greater va- riety of game than any other sec- tion in the United States. In addi- tion to the game our party pro- cured there are to be had bear and big horn sheep, the latter being available thru a special permit. Moose and antelope permits are likewise secured as an extra to the general big game license. WILD-LIFE MOVIES I was successful in making some very interesting and unusual color movies of wildlife. Most of the still pictures were made in natural color, too, however, the black and white enclosures may be of interest to you. The aspens, bedecked in their fall costumes of brilliant yel- lows and reds, intermingling with the stately spruce and other ever- greens banked on the mountain slopes with the Range as a backdrop, made a veri- table paradise for the color photo- grapher, The usual procedure of hunting in this territory is by horseback, with some footwork where the mountain slopes are too rough or heavily wooded for riding. The moose were found in abun- dance in the willow swamps along the rivers and small mountain streams. Non-resident hunters are issued permits to take bull moose only. The resident hunters, for the most part, prefer cow moose for their winter meat supply, altho the elk is a favorite with many on ac- count of its close resemblance to beef. THE LORDLY MOOSE The largest moose bagged by our party had an antler spread of 50 inches and several others were well over 43 inches. This fine game animal is primarily a browser and subsists chiefly on willows. A full grown bull moose will weigh up- wards of 1200 pounds and the task of packing out a butchered animal requires the services of four pack horses and much hard work. Like all other members of the deer family, the moose sheds his antlers each spring. The enormous antler growth, beginning in March, is accomplished in approximately four months. He then polishes up his new headdress by rubbing off the “velvet” on small trees and is then ready to resume his place as monarch of the American wilder- ness. We found the elk unusuually high up in the mountain recesses at timberline where they retreat during the summer months as a protection against flies. Since this handsomest member of the deer family is primarily a grazing ani- mal, they start migrating to the lower altitudes as soon as the first snows cover over the grassy mea- dows and parks, Bill McMillan on the alert for geese near Jackson Lake, Jack- son, Wyoming. The party got its limit. McMil-4— A Sportsman’s Dream rugged Teton Roy Burnett, guide, with Bull Moose killed by Bill McMillan in Teton County, Wyoming. The big moose weighed over 1200 pounds, and had an antler spread of 50 inches. FISH AND DUCKS, TOO Fishing on the clear, swift flow- ing Snake River was excellent with dry and wet flies. A splendid me- thod of fishing this river was by means of a light boat carried up- stream by auto, floated down’ the river, and beached near the many Tyree Bell swears he shot his Pronghorn Antelope, but friends point out that the picture indi- cates he bull-dogged the animal, running it down in desperation after emptying his rifle in vain shots. likely fishing spots. Our catch con- sisted of rainbows and cutthroats measuring up to 22% inches in length. Myriads of mallard ducks and Canada geese swarmed over the many small streams and lakes. The opening day, Sept. 25th, ushered in a heavy flight of geese, following their customary course to and from the nearby grain fields. Na- tural cover afforded good blinds and the shooting was excellent. ABOUT THE ANTELOPE Perhaps the most interesting phase of the trip was the antelope hunt staged on the sage brush flats on the western fringe of the vast Red Desert country of Sweetwa- ter county, 160 miles south of Jackson Hole and on the road home. It is no uncommon sight to see upwards of a hundred or more antelope in an hour’s hunt, but this hardy animal with teles- copic eyes taxes the shooting skill, patience, and endurance of the tro- phy hunter. A dweller of the open spaces, he depends on his mar- velous eyesight and subsequent speed, which has been checked to exceed 40 miles per hour, for safety. Like every other animal, he has a weakness and a thorough knowledge of his habits enables the hunter to stalk him within a respectable rifle range. When flushed he usually “goes over the hill’ and maybe to another hill or down into the flat country. He will then stop, keenly alert, and an- ticipate his pursuer to approach from the same course. By keeping out of sight and taking a 90 de- gree route to the animal’s original line of flight, one will almost in- variably find him standing broad- side. His small size of about 80 to 90 pounds when dressed affords an exacting target at distances which ususally average about 200 yards.. Mathematically, an antelope running full speed at right angles and at a distance of 200 yards must be lead by approximately 12 feet with a modern high power rifle, There is no sportier a rifle target to be had on American big game. The pronghorn antelope is strictly an all-American animal with no close kin in the animal world. He is the only hollow horn ruminant in the world that sheds his horns annually. Sane conser- vation measures have re-habilita- ted the dwindling herd of a few hundred animals in 1906 to over 50,000 head in 1943 in Wyoming. Over 8,000 antelope were killed last year and the kill this year will be a valuable contribution to- ward our national meat problem. Here is a report of our First day afield with the prong-horn ante- lope. ANTELOPE HUNTING It was long before daylight when Ed, our farmer friend of past hunting trips and a native son of Copenhagen, Denmark (Continued Page 4, Col. 6) George P. Kuykendall, Lubbock, hands Tyree Bell a pair of nice cutthroat trout caught in the Snake River, Teton County, Wyoming. Fishing was good but the water slightly cold for swimming. Aggies Battle Experienced NTAC | To Scoreless Tie - Longhorns Heavy Favorites as League Play Heats Up Tied but still unbeaten, Homer Norton’s surprising and youthful Aggie football team takes on another conference opponent Saturday, journeying to far-away Fayetteville to joust with the Arkansas Razor- backs. The team already has one conference victory under its belt, against TCU. Following Arkansas comes in order S. M. U. at College, Rice at Houston and Texas at College. i On the basis of games played to date the Longhorns of Texas University rate heavy favorites for the title. In fact, they stand so high against other league teams that sports writers rate them to win in a walk. Heavily weighted by experienced transfers from other college teams and with several of their own letter-men available the Steers have run roughshod over Arkansas and Rice in their first con- ference games and should add S. M. U. to their string this Saturday. The Mustangs, incidentally, looked better even while losing last Sat- urday to Tulane though still not in a class with the Longhorns. The Aggies, surprise team of the loop, have one of the “Fighting- est” teams ever to represent the Maroon and White. Their fine spirit has carried them this far without a defeat but Homer Norton and his meager staff of Bill James, Manning Smith and Lil Dimmitt have not allowed themselves to become too optimistic. Absence of injuries has been another big help to the Cadets who are long on numbers but short on talent, particularly at certain spots in the line. Freshmen Bryant and Moncrief, tackles, have played almost full-time and loss of either would be disastrous. There always remains the possibiltiy of loss of men to the armed service, several of the youngsters being “on call” and more interested in that big fight than in the smaller football wars. The Aggies, Texas and S. M. U. remain undefeated in conference play, but the latter pair meet this week-end and all indications point to the Mustang departure from the undefeated in conference play group. If the Aggies can get by Arkansas they have a good chance to enter the Thanksgiving classic undefeated. 4 “Nary One Made Ary One” It was a case of “Boys against men” when the youthful Aggie football team met their younger brothers from the North Texas Agricultural College, Arlington, at Kyle Field last Saturday. When the smoke cleared away neither team had scored and honors were about even. The game was a tie, but when all is said and done there was considerable glory for the young Aggies in holding their own with NTAC’s powerful Lend- Lease eleven. J. G. “Klepto” APO 834 Club Going dtrong Despite a rapid turnover in its membership the APO 834 Club con- tinues to hold meetings regularly each month. The last two meet- ings were on the evenings of September 24 and October 22. The club is headquartered in the Carri- bean. In its September meeting the club addressed a letter to the Of- fice of the Radio Bureau, OWI, Washington, urging that the Thanksgiving game be re-broadcast by short wave to service men over- seas. The club also made a club gift to the 1944 Development Fund. Among those present at the September meeting were the fol- lowing: BRIG. GEN. RALPH A. WOOTEN, ’16; COL. RALPH A. DENSMORE, ’15; MAJOR JACK A. REYNOLDS, ’32; MAJOR RAY- MOND HELPERT, ’38; CAPTAIN CHARLES A. BELL, 41; CAPT. FRED C. HAGNER; CAPT. BEN H. JOHNSON, 29; LT. GEORGE R. MARRS, 24; CAPT. GEORGE G.

SAN- TONI, ’41. : NAVY NEEDS OFFICERS The Navy needs the following type of men as commissioned officers at the pre- sent time: engineers, mathematicians, che- mists, metallurgists, doctors, dentists, cler- gymen, physicists and architects (with practical experience in steel construction). In nearly all cases, a full college degree is required. Consideration, however, may be given to men over 30 years of age who have had eight to ten years of tLe par- ticular type of experinece desired by the Navy. Men under 35 years, physically qualified for sea duty, and who have a college degree may apply for appointment as general duty officers—mno specialized ex- perience is necessary but a considerable degree of responsible experience in his civilian life is required. To any man desiring information, it is suggested that they contact their nearest Navy Recruiting Station. Those in North of Northwest Texas Area may write to the Office of Naval Officer Procurement, 1530 Allen Building, Dallas, Texas; those in South Texas write to the Office of Naval Officer Procurement, 824 Neils Esperson Building, Houston, Texas. BEY Holmes, 26, coached the visitors. The visitors trotted out a pow- erful team made up of Marine re- servists representing largely ex- perienced hands from T. C. U,, S. M. U.,, Texas Tech and other FOOTBALL TICKETS: As re- quested by the ODT, no effort has been made by athletic authorities this year to promote football ticket sales to those living at a distance from games played. Regular foot- ball ticket application blanks were mailed, however, to A. & M. men in early September, and sale hag been opened to the general public for several weeks. At last report sales for the Thanksgiving game at Kyle Field were brisk, with tickets sold down to near the goal line on the A. & M. side of the field. Ample seats remain, how- ever, and NO sell-out even on the day of the game is visioned by the Athletic Department. Tick- ets for other games are plentiful. Ticket buyers who know in ad- vance they will attend should send their checks direct to the Athletic Dept., as soon as possible. Seats for all conference games are $2.50 each. major schools. They smothered the Cadet running attack completely and only through the air could the youngsters threaten. Heading the NTAC attack were “Red” Maley, S.M.U. star, and a T.C.U. sopho- more, Pete Stout who is the best looking back to break into confer- ence circles since John Kimbrough made his debut. But try as they might the veterans could not score on the fighting youngsters. At that, the kids got a couple of great breaks when a pair of NTAC touchdowns were called back, onee on an illegal pass, the other when Stout stepped on the side-line before weaving his way through the Aggies to the goal line. The best Aggie scoring drive was halted inside the NTAC 10 in the final period. The Aggies gave away a weight advantage of 20 pounds per man. Some great kicking by Bing Tur- ner helped the Cadets but he was matched in that department by Maley and Batchelor of the visi- tors. Texas N.T. A&M. A.C.
