2 THE BATTALION PLANS FOR THANKSGIVING HOP ARE UNDER WAY At a meeting of the Senior Class held last Wednesday afternoon the following committees were elected to complete plans for the Thanksgiving Hop and festivities accompanying it: A. L. Egan, arrangements; E. H. Moore, finance; L. G. Jolliff, floor; T. H. Baker, decorations; O. P. W’ey- land, music. The news of this election should be of striking interest to every man who has been to a dance at A. and M. for they know that it is the supreme gala affair of the fall term and a fitting cli max for a successful football season. For the information of the “Fish” the Thanksgiving Hop is an annual dance given by the student body in honor of the football team—that bunch of gridiron warriors who sac rifice all the social functions up through Thanksgiving day for the love of the game and old A. and M. In the writer’s opinion they deserve all and more than we can possibly give them in the way of a dance. So when your 1st Sergeant comes around for that dollar to defray expenses for this dance dig down deep in those old jeans and come across.. Think of the many sacrifices that old team has made for you and it will make you feeel glad that you can do even that little bit of help to put the final touches to its football season. This year, as in previous years, there will be two dances. The first being a formal dance on Friday night following the game on Thursday, and the second on Saturday night which is an informal affair. The best music in the South will be produced and of course the lovliest girls in the land will be on hand, so "Fis»h”, “Soph.r*” Juniors, Seniors, Graduates, and others kick in that dollar and make that date. LET’S SHOW A DESERV ING FOOTBALL SQUAD THAT WE REALLY APPRECIATE THEIR EFFORTS! “BOOMERANG” PREWIT. J. D. Prewit, business manager for the 1923 Longhorn, “south-paw” pitch er for the Collegian baseball team, a frequent visitor of the near by jun gle-towns, and “shimmy-shakes” North-East of College and one-half mile West of Bryan, a snake-charmer, a cow-judger, a horse-rider, a heart- breaker, a lady-killer, a lover and ad mirer of the feminine sex until recent occasions, which seem to have brought a change for the worst. Least but not last, “Boomerang” is a man in his ways and always comes twice before h : s opponent can exercise the proper means to null his “bullish aggressive ness”, a man noted for his military ability by being promoted from a fourth-year sergeant to Captain of “H” Co., “Shiek Battalion”, at times a kid in some of his amiable ways, who recently fell for a girl in Dal las, and whose mother fell for him with the “hot end” of a broom-stick about 12:30 p. m., which caused him much annoyment for the time being, and caused him to seek refuge on the steps of Ross Avenue Baptist Church, at 5200 Ross Avenue, where he in silent prayer invoked the aid of Diety until picked up by a good Samaritan Jitney-driver at 4:30 a. m. and car ried to the Jefferson Hotel, where he engaged a bed and slept his troubles away.
