We Aggies are proud of it, and we have just cause to be. Just think what A. and M. would be like without “Taps,” “Goodbye to Texa'si,” “Wildcat,” “Spirit of Aggieland,” and others that we know and love so well. Also there is the orchestra that plays in Guion Hall each Sunday. We take it as a matter of course without thinking of the difficult task of or ganizing and maintaining an orches tra of this kind. For this orchestra, we are indebted to Mr. Dunn, our Band Director. He also directs the chorus that we will hear in Guion Hall later on this year. It is not definitely decided whether the band will g*o to the Sewanee game or not. We hope that it does though, because we know how it helps our “Ole Army” when it needs help. SAY BO DIDJA?
