THURSDAY, AUGUST 15, 1946 THE TEXAS AGGIE Page 3 AMONG A. and M. MEN Pioneers Dr. F. E. Giesecke, ’86 New Braunfels The Giesecke Family celebrated its 100th anniversary in the U. S., recently at New Braunfels and some three hundred Texans met to celebrate the occasion. Dr. F. E. Giesecke, ’86, formerly Pro- fessor of Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning at A. & M. ‘was one of the organizers of he celebration. Dr. Giesecke is now ‘making his home at New Brun- fels. F. M. Law, ’95, of Houston, has ‘been named a director of the Tex- as Association of Commerce. 1902 M. M. Wren. 1903 T. B. Warden 1605 Westover Rd., Austin Silver Taps: Carl A. Heldenfels. Mr. Harry F. Matthews is Sen- ior Engineer at Biggs Field, Tex- as. He was a Civil Engineering ‘major. 1 304 Silver Taps: James E. Pirie, Dr. R. H, Glass. 1908 Lem Adams Oxweld R. R. Serviee Co. 230 N. Michigan Ave., Chicago, Il. ‘Dear Mac: Enclosed is my check for $25 for the Development Fund which I desire to have credited as fol- lows: $10 for myself (this has been my annual contribution since the Fund was started). ‘$5 each for the three classmates listed below who have passed on: Leslie N. Huff, ’08. Oscar L. Ellis, ’08 Arthur B. Whittet, ’08 Huff was a pitcher on the Col- lege team, President of our class in our Sophomore and Junior years and student manager of the Ath- letic Association. He was from Luling and roomed next to me in ‘Foster Hall. He was my coun- selor and close friend throughout my four years in College and no man who ever went to A. & M. was a more loyal supporter of the institution. He planned and di- rected the 1908 strike of the stu- dents while ill in the hospital. This strike, while unfortunate, brought publicity to the College which caused it to grow more rap- idly than ever before. Huff was stricken with the white plague and was unable to graduate al- though his scholastic record was excellent. He died soon after leaving college and I want his name remembered in this year’s list. Oscar L. Ellis was from Abilene and was my roommate for three years. He was a serious, hard- working chap—one of those older boys who came to the college be- cause of the opportunity it of- fered to get college training with limited funds. He graduated in E. E. and was for many years as- sociated with the Telephone Com- pany in Fort Worth. He died in late 1936 or early 1937 and left three daughters who graduated from T. C. U. If Ellis were living he would be one of your contribu- tors, so I ask the privilege of contributing for him. Arthur Whittet and I entered A. & M. the same day and from adjoining counties. We were in Ross Hall the first night at College and were close friends until his death in 1944. He entered gov- “ernment service in 1909 and I in 1911. I was a pallbearer at his funeral and because of our friend- ship and my admiration for him I want his name included in the 1908 list. No finer man ever lived than A. B. Whittet and no man ever gave more to his coun- try—his life. Long hours of grinding work in the War De- partment where he was an out- standing expert in ordnance, sap- ped his strength and vitality and he died a casualty of the war just like the soldiers on the battle- fields. Recently the War Depart- ment gave recognition to his con- tributions to the war effort by awarding him, posthumously, the Emblem of Exceptional Civilian Service, which was given te his widow. The enclosed notice gives the account of the award. Reorganization of the Depart- ment of Agriculture last fall brought me back to the Livestock Branch of the Production and Marketing Administration which I left in 1939 as a result of a re- organization in that year. As Head Economist, my work has to do with livestock production goals, production adjustments, price sup- port policies and so forth. I com- pleted 35 years service in the De- partment on June 30, and on my 60th birthday in November, 1947, will be eligible for retirement on full annuity. Am thinking of stay- ing on until 62, but the wife says “No”’—that I have to retire at 60. Have not been in best physical condition this last winter and spring. Have a “bum” back and this together with pronounced fa- tigue resulting from low blood pressure has put me considerably under par. As you will note from this let- terhead, I am Secretary-Treasurer of the Agricultural History So- ciety which was founded in 1919 and has about 500 members scat- tered over this country with a few in some foreign countries. This is my second year in this position and would be glad to have appli- cations for membership from A. & M. men interested in Agriculture and its history. Dues are $3 a year for which one receives an excellent quarterly journal well worth the money. Silver Taps: Glad to note the interest A. & M. men are taking in building up the College and in planning for its future. Keep up the good work. Don’t forget to include my three buddies when making up your 1946 lists. Sincerely, Charles A. Burmeister, 08 4650 Broad Branch Road Washington, D. C. P. S. You may be interested in knowing that T. E. Holloway, S. M. Lomanitz and myself are three 1908 men listed in “American Men of Science,” the Who’s Who of the World of Science. Prince A. Dunks writes from Crosby, Texas, where he is in the general merchandise business. Un- til recently he has been in rail- road service and writes that the only A. & M. men that he had an- opportunity to see were other men in the railroad service. He also says it’s mighty fine te be settled down and off the road and invites any of his friends passing through Crosby to drop in and say hello. 1910 Rock G. Taber Box 4569, Atlanta 2, Ga. Thurmond A. Munson, Profes- sor of Hydraulics, has resigned his position with the Civil En- gineering Department to accept a position with the Dow Chemical Co., at Freeport, in the engineer- ing division.

A na- tive of Brazoria County, the Mun- son family will reside at Angle- ton, Texas. R. R. Stevens, Room 550, M. C. Term.

Dear Mr. McQuillen: The June 24th issue of “The Texas Aggie” has just reached me, and I was amused at the letter from “Hickie” Harrison of the class of 1914. He complains of the lack of news of his class in The Aggie, and I immediately no- ticed that in this issue at least, there was no news of my own class of 1916. He furthermore states that he is a mechanical engineer up to his collar bone in the Textile Industry; and I, too am a mechanical engineer but up to my eyebrow in the Textile In- dustry. This condition is not al- together out of line because, after all, a cotton mill is simply a building full of machinery; and our biggest job is in keeping the wheels turning efficiently. Best regards to you and to all of my buddies in the class of 1916. Yours truly, Hugh S. Clarke 4080 Hanover Dallas 5, Tex. Col. Samuel B.
