A NEW COACH ON THE JOB!
Wadding bells will ring out in Fort Worth, December 19th, for
one Head Coach D. X. Bible and Miss Rowena Rhodes of Bryan, well
known to hundreds of old A. and M. men.
The wedding ceremony will be conducted by Dr. George W, Truett,
pastor of the First Baptist church of Dallas. The wedding will oc
cur at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Emmett Cole, formerly of Bryan,
now living in Fort Worth.
Following the ceremony The Bible and His New Testament will
go to Tennessee for a brief visit with D. X.’s family.
The announcement of the wedding did not come to the College
people as a distinct surprise, as D. X. has been “sparking” Rowena
for about three years. Everyone was just hoping that there would
be some success attending Bible’s efforts.
It is believed that D. X.’s motto, “Work will win when wishing
wont”, had its inception in his own campaign. Here’s hoping that
“There Shall Be No Regrets”.
Mr. and Mrs. Bible will be at home at College Station after Jan
uary 1st.

Over three hundred dollars was
paid out by the Y at the last monthly

A number of last years Handbooks
have been distributed thru the Y to
students desiring them. Owing to
the financial condition of the Asso
ciation, the books were not publish
ed this year.

Say Bo! Didja ever sit down to
Reel off a ream or two of the stuff
That you contribute weekly to the
Official publication? And didja
Think of the many things you’d
Like to write, and of the many
Bloody axes that you’d like to
VVield? And did wrongs cry out for
Redress, and didja long to take
A tap at this and that? And
Did th’ sparks fly from your
Pencil as you wrote those burning
Words? And didja stop of a sudden
And remember that the good Yule-
tide
Was almost here, and that after
All it might be better to let the
Broad axe rest a spell and merely
Say: A Merry Xmas to you all?
And so here goes;
We wish you all a Merry Xmas.
