V Walton Presents Rifle Team Medals Eight beautiful medals became the possessions of so many proud Aggies Sunday, when Dr. T. O.

Neuman, G. W. Lewis and B. R. Petrie. SLANTS / By M. H. HOLLOWAY It takes a good town to appreciate a good man. And it takes a good man to fulfill the expectations of such a burg. Every now and then we find this type of an individual. Whe ther he plays a bag-pipe or a French harp; a pipe organ or a piano—if he plays it well he has learned the first lesson in that all important subject —sex appeal. The Aggieland Orches tra is proud to say that it has in its midst with the necessary IT, a man that has accomplished the art of coaxing soothing, hautning melo dies from his saxophone, a man that never takes “No” for an answer but always tries just a trifle harder. Let us introduce him to you. He is none other than Mr. Fritz Mueller from that big city of Kenedy where, it has been said, men are men and wo men are glad of it. If all of this does not seem to be true merely glance at the following paragraph which is copied verbatin from “The Kenedy Advance.” It was sent to us by the editor of that paper and we were asked to print it at our first oppor tunity. “Fritz Mueller, student at A. and M. College, has been spending the Christmas holiday period as a mem ber of the famous Aggieland Orches tra playing for dances at various points over the state. The orchestra played in Kenedy Monday morning for the annual German given by the A. and M. Club of Wilson, Karnes and Bee counties. A member of the orchestra stated that the dance here was one of the finest they had ever played for and seemed to be more generally enjoyed. Fritz started out with the Kenedy school orchestra un der the leadership of Leinhard and during his high school days was the star saxophone palyer for the local orchestra. By virtue of his splendid training he made the orchestra after entering college for his second year, and has since been playing regularly with that organization. He also plays in the band, and gets to make many pleasant, interesting and exciting trips during the school year.” * * * It is not often that one eats a meal before going to a banquet. It is rare ly done but we find it in the best of families. When this does occur it is usually by an absent minded pro fessor or a very busy man who if worried. In this case he is of the lat ter type and we introduce to you our own sports editor, Mr. Paul Jelly Dresser. Setting a new precedent in the ar^ of forgetting engagements, Paul de layed the Battalion Staff banquet the other night by making its mem bers wait at least twenty minutes for him to finish his supper. He really enjoys Sbisa hash. It may he safely said, however, that he ate everything that was placed before him on the banquet table. Even down to that las* cup of coffee, he did not refuse any thing. May Allah give us all appetites such as this, for then, and only then, will our success in society be assur ed. In 1895 there were only 13 pieces in the College band? Wonder how long it would take them to play “90,- 000 blue notes?” UNIFORM TAILOR SHOP TAILOR-MADE SHIRTS, BREECHES, BLOUSES AND SLACKS Mendl & Hornak, Props.
