TT’S Ukulele Ike’s newest record
hit—a corking good pair of num
bers crooned by an ace performer.
A plaintively sentimental song that
packs a kick in every sob is backed
by a peppy dance-provoker from a
talkie—and both put over in stop-the-
show style by Cliff Edwards.
Hear it today at your dealer’s, and
give’these others an audition, too.

A. A. Student Club
Is Given 'Name
The Junior and Senior Agricul
tural Administration students held
their second meeting of the year
in the “Y” chapel last Tuesday
night and adopted a constitution. The
Constitution stated that the name of
the club will be The Farmers and
Bankers Club and that this name
can only be changed by a vote of
two-thirds majority. Also, that the
regular meetings will be held on the
third Tuesday of each month and
the officers of the club for the en
suing year will be elected at the
last meeting of the year.
R. E. Neal, president of the Far
mers and Bankers Club, stated that
“The purpose of the organization is
to keep in touch with the progress
of the various activities under the
A. A. Department....! would like
to urge all the Juniors and Seniors
taking Marketing and Finance, Farm
and Ranch Management, Accounting
and Statistics, or Agricultural Eco
nomics to attend these meetings. Not
only will they be beneficial to you,
but to the club as well.”
Programs are to be arranged be
fore hand by some member of the
club who is appointed by the presi
dent. They will cover various topics
from time to time, relating to the
farmer and banker. In this way
problems which have been unsolved
may find a solution in the Farmers
and Bankers Club.
At the next meeting, Mr. Thomas
Mayo, Librarian of the College, will
be the chief speaker of the evening.
The staff is waiting for material
to come in. Every page will be dif
ferent, and the book in its entirety
will undoubtedly be outstanding and
very unusual.
Freshman Class
Elects Officers
The members of the class of ’33
proved their preference of “red” to
other colors in the general scheme
formed by hat cords and other in
signia in the cadet corps when J. L.
Cunningham, San Antonio, of the
Artillery, was elected president and
R. C. Lines, Tyler, of the engineer
ing unit, was chosen vice-president
at a meeting in the Assembly Hall
Sunday afternoon.
Further carrying out the color
scheme with red predominating, J.
P. Miller, McKinney, also a mem
ber of the engineering unit, was
elected secretary-treasurer. Appar
ently the necessity of choosing an
athlete spoiled the pattern when M.
H. Breedlove, Smithville, a promising
guard on Coach Higginbotham’s
freshman grid team and a cavalry
man, was selected as freshman repre
sentative to the Student Welfare
Committee.
A Difficult task
Confronts Chef
Only a very few students ever see
or hear of the man who actually su
pervises the preparing of the food
we eat. Of course, there are some
complaints, but, members of the up
per classes, don’t you remember when
our food was really something to
gripe about, and how last year and
this year such a wonderful improve
ment has heen made?
The credit is due Mr. J. C. Hotard,
who has been the Chef since Septem
ber last year. Mr. Hotard is twenty-
eight years of age and is still un
married. He started his career nine
teen years ago as “pot-washer” in
a small cafe in New Orleans. From
there he served as Stewart and Chef
on each of the United Fruit Com
pany passenger Liners, for seven
years, and at one time was a Stew
art on U. S. S. Leviathian. Since
that time he has acted as Chief Chef
in a number of the leading restaur
ants and Hotels in Texas, Louisiana,
and Mississippi, including Mississippi
A. and M. Latef, broken in health,
he was forced to rest several weeks
and on recovery, came here with an
excellent recommendation. Not only
is this man the best chef we have
ever had, and supervisor of the kit
chen in the Aggieland Inn, but is
the proud possessor of a Carnegie
Hero Medal, which he was presented
after rescuing a man from drown
ing.
One might be interested in the
great quantities of food that Mr.
Hotard has to deal with; for instance,
1600 lbs. of potatoes, every meal;
I, 520 lbs of flour a day; 84 to 100
gallons of canned fruit and vege
tables; 480 dozens of eggs; 100 lbs.
of coffee, and 235 gallons of milk,
daily. Incidentally, there is over
15,000 dishes used each meal. Of
course, this is not all, by any
means, but merely to give you an
idea what an immense job he has,
so that you might appreciate the
excellent service this one man alone
renders every day in the school year.
Henceforth, if you have any gripes
to make, please stop and think a
moment before you go to the Chef,
and maybe you will find that there
was really no gripe coming at all.
