SUPPLEMENT TO THE BATTALION
I was walking down the
MILITARY Walk
ONE Sunday afternoon just before
RETREAT
LOOKING over the people in the
FORDS and Cadillacs
WHO had come out to
WATCH the boys march to
CHOW
WHEN my attention was attracted
BY the gab of two
SIMPLE folk
THEY were surmising that
THE man in the handsome
LIMOUSINE
WAS some high official
WAS some high official
OF the college
IF I had been a stranger
I would have
AGREED with them
BUT I knew from knowledge
DEARLY BOUGHT
THAT he was only a
BOOTLEGGER
A. AND M. ANNUAL RODEO AND
LIVESTOCK NOVELTY SHOW
TO BE HELD NOV.4 IN THE
A. H. PAVILION.
The proceeds of this Animal Live
Stock Novelty Show which is given
by the Junior Animal Husbandry
students will go towards defraying
the expenses of sending the senior
live stock judging team to the Inter
national Live Stock Show held at
Chicago.
The senior live sto:;k judging team
will leave College Station November
6 for Chicago where they will enter
the International Live Stock Judging
Contest.
Previous teams that have repre
sented A. and M. at Chicago have
brought the br.onze bull, the trophy
awarded the winning team, back to
College on two consecutive occasions.
Everything points towards this year’s
team bringing this trophy back for
the thiivd time; thereby making it the
permanent property of the Animal
Husbandry Department.
Some of the novelties to be shown
are:
Steer riding.
Horse riding.
Greased pig contest.
Noted quartet will sing Cowboy
Ballads.
Potato race.
Three ways of getting through
College.
History repeats itself at A. and M.
Also, arrangements are being per
fected to have some of the Bryan
gilds take part in the initial event of
the program.
Plans are also under way for a
carnival which will begin immediate
ly after dinner, Friday, November 4,
and will last until taps that night.
The carnival will take place on the
lawn by the Agricultural Building.
A. & M. DELEGATES WILL
GO TO BAYLOR BELTON
Next Thursday, Oct. 27, will see
the exodus of an enthusiastic group
of students Baylor-ward bound. The
reason for the afore-mentioned ex
odus is the Second Annual Baptist
Students Conference which is held at
Belton this year. The primary object
of this conference is to aid the stu
dent in his religious life and teach
him how to aid others. The second
ary motive—well, ask any delegate
going.
The Baptist students who are “in”
on the plans are all anxious for the
arrival of the 27th. If you are a
Baptist and are “in” come out to the
meeting in Guion Hall Sunday night
and you will get the opportunity.
Any disciple of the “United State
ment” of Baylor C. can tell you about
the plans. Dr. Truett, Dr. S. P.
Brooks, and other speakers of note
will be there. Besides the meetings
there is a plan of entertainment work
ed out. The Baylor girls are plan
ning to do their share and C. I. A.
has promised two delegates to every
one from A. and M.
If you are interested in going be
out Sunday night. Fifty is the limit
and over twenty-five have already
signed up. Better put in your appli
cation now.
