College Station, Tex., October 23, 1914
A partial list has been made out,
containing the names of sixteen Se
niors whom the Batallion considers
worthy of mention in “Who’s Who at
A. & M.” It is not probable that the
names of more than four other Seniors
will be added to this list; hence, it
will be seen that it is quite as honor
to be included in this small number.
Before selecting these men the
Batallion secured recommendations
from six different persons on the cam
pus, each one in a position to know
who was who is his line of college
activity. The Seniors who received
recommendatioss from the greatest
number of these men were the ones
chosen. .
The series will start as soon as the
first cuts can be secured, and one
write-up will be published each week.
It is now our intention to mention a
few Juniors during the spring, but we
will wait until they have all had a
chance to show what they can do be
fore we select them.
We observe in the Daily Texan for
Tuesday an article by Hon. A. S. Crisp
of the State Legislature concerning
relations between A. & M. and the
University, in which he advances argu
ments in favor of resuming athletic
relations, and incidentally commends
The Battalion for fostering a spirit
of good feeling between the two
schools. Mr. Crisp is the father of
our fellow student, M. C. Crisp, and,
having a son in this college, realizes
more keenly the uselessness of ani
mosity between the two schools.
The Battalion is glad to see T. U.
and A. & M. assuring each other of
their good will, but after all its strikes
us as very regrettable that such a
thing is necessary. Why should
students who are the best of friends
in their home towns become enemies
as soon as they have reached their
respective colleges?
THE “LONG HORN” CALLS
MEETING OF CLUB AND
SOCIETY PRESIDENTS
On Saturday evening, October 17,
a meeting of the presidents of all the
clubs and societies was called for the
purpose of determining whether or
not the clubs wanted a space in the
“Long Horn” for pictures. Everyone
proved to be enthusiastic over the
proposition and wanted a space re
served for their club in the college
annual.
Mr. H. F. Ellis, editor of the book
on Student Organiations, then out
lined to them the way in which the
work in his department would be con
ducted this year, and gave them a
brief description of the way in which
they could make their space in the
“Long Horn” pretty and attractive.
Every club will be given the privilege
of designing their own plate and
making it as original as possible. In
this way each club will try to fix up
the most attractive, the most original
and the most typical design representa
tive of the purpose of organizing the
club and the things which it stands
for.
At the conclusion of the meeting
there was a short discussion on organ
izing a club consisting of club presi
dents. The move seemed to be a
popular one and one from which great
benefit could be derived. A meeting
may be called some time in the future
for the purpose of organizing this
club.
All those presidents who were ab
sent from the meeting last Saturday
should see either Mr. Ellis or Mr.
Jarvis some time soon if they wish
to get the picture of their club in the
annual this year.
