Dear Mulvey:
I was very happy indeed to receive Vol.
1, No. 1 of the Class Letter, and I wish
to congratulate you upon its newsy con-
tents. It was like receiving a letter from
home.
J. D. “JEFF” HARRIS is with the
Federal Works Agency and can be reach-
ed through their Fort Worth Office. It
has been my pleasure to have seen him
some from 1936 to 1939. He has a lovely
family of wife and two daughters.
R..B.! “DICK” ' BARNITZ “ can. be
reached at Municipal Air Port, Los An-
geles, Calif.
As for myself, I have a wife, four sons
and one daughter. My family reside in
Pharr, Texas. (That is what remains of
them.)
My oldest son, CAPT. JEAN F. DE-
VINE, of the Army Air Corps, is overseas.
He graduated from A. and M. in 1939.
My next son, P. S. DEVINE. JR., was
in the Seabees, but was given a medical
discharge and now is in the produce bus-
iness in Pharr, Texas. He finished the two-
year cotton course at A. and M. in
1938.
My next son, ROBERT P. DEVINE,
is a lieutenant i the Army Air Corps and,
for military reasons, will not say where
he is at present or where he is sta-
tioned, My youngest son, WILLIAM H.
DEVINE, is a lieutenant in the Army
Air Corps, and his address is also with-
held.
I do not know who is to receive the
credit for the idea of a Class Letter,
but whoever it was, they deserve con-
gratulations. I shall look forward to the
next letter with a great deal of pleasure
and will, whenever I know of anything
regarding any of our classmates, transmit
the information to you.
With every good wish for your
cess and with warm personal regards, I
remain
suc-

Mr. J. A. Scofield
College Station, Texas
Hi Beef:
Received your letter and was happy
to get it. Really think it was swell. Am
going to look for “Dad” Royer when I
go to San Antonio again.
Well, you have asked for it so here
it comes with both barrels. I am a
manufacturers representative with head-
quarters in Dallas. Mrs. Williams and I
live at 1155 North Madison Ave., Dallas
8, Texas (Telephone, Winfield 4343).
Our son, WYVEL T. WILLIAMS, JR.
is in Pensacola, Fla. in the Marine Air
Corps, He was in the Class of ’44.
Pal, I never have farmed any but you
remember the bull session I had with. you
and Dick Miller. Several of us have to
travel together now to save tires and
gas. There is a lot of high powered farm-
ing and ranching that goes con in our
cars as we drive around over the coun-
try. In fact, I think that you and Dick
would profit a lot if you could talk with
a bunch of salesmen as they really seem
to know their stuff about farming and
cattle raising.
I still cannot see why a man with 160
A. of land could not get one good cow
and if she produced a heifer calf in two
years be could double. In another year
another double and so on until in twenty
years he could have a half million cows.
Then he could sell and just look at the
money. Well, we will continue this the
next time I am with you and Dick.
Yours for a lot of luck,
WYVEL T. WILLIAMS

had taken too much toll from him and
that ha was destined to spend the rest of
the time at home. He has an eleven year
old boy who is an enthusiastic Aggie
