House. He is trying to rejuvenate a
prejudiced complaint that is over a
year old. Every well informed per
son knows that conditions, although
never as bad as were depicted, have
made wondrous changes for the bet

DR. SCOYILLE IS NOW
HOLDING REVIVAL AT
THE TABERNACLE
Dr. Charles Reign Scoville, famous
evangelist, began his revival here
Friday night with a strong opening
sermon in the Tabernacle. Dr. Sco
ville revealed very clearly those qual
ities which have distinguished his
sermons and made them strong, fear
less, and frank. Mrs. Arlene Dux
Scoville charmed the audience with
the unusual beauty of her singing.
She has attained an enviable reputa
tion as a sacred soloist, being among
the leading sacred soloists of today.
Dr. Scoville spoke at the regular re
ligious convocation in Ghion Hall
Sunday morning and also spoke in the
evening. He will speak every evening
for the rest of the week in the Taber
nacle. Many students have heard all
the sermons, and speak in praising
terms of the quality of Dr. Scoville’s
preaching.

AN OPEN LETTER TO
REPRESENTATIVE
BOGGS
College Station, Texas,
March 3, 1925.
As usual, the legislature of the
state has begun its annual hazing in
vestigation. Each year, some mis
guided representative introduces a
bill to investigate the brutalities which
are supposed to exist at A. and M.
College.
We, the members of the San Ange
lo Club, are indeed sorry to learn that
our, representative is the one who is
misinformed this year. We are sorry
to learn that the man that was elected
to represent us in the state legisla
ture is so unfamiliar with the exist
ing conditions at A. and M. College.
There are approximately two dozen
boys here from San Angelo. Some
of us have been here four years, but
none of us have ever seen the mythi
cal baseball bat, so often referred to
in political circles. Neither have we
seen or heard, except through the
newspapers, of any freshman being
beaten until he was unconscious.
Last year there was practically no
hazing at A. and M. College. This
year it has been very conspicuous by
its absence. Hazing at A. and M. is
a thing of the past. The Senior class
took a stand against the practice. The
faculty has always been against the
practice. The combined efforts of
these two governing bodies have been
very effective in stopping the prac
tice of hazing. Some of us were sorry
to see the old traditions go, others
were glad to see it abolished; but all,
realizing the necessity for the abol
ishment of hazing, have joined in its
suppression.
The result is that there is no haz
ing at A. and M. today.
