COURTESY
Traditions at A and M may easily be classed into two kinds: those
feat are food and those that are undesirable. There seems to be one
desirable tradition that is becominff weaker and weaker each yeffr, and
it is one that should be held as hiffh, if not hiffber, than any other
tradition we hare.
This reference Is made to the eastern that the corps has, or oi
had. of speaking to fellow students when passing them on the campus,
reward less of class, organisation, or whether or not one has ever seen
the other before. It is a distinction that A, and M has had above most
other Southern schools and this tradition in the past has promoted a
closer association and feeling toward fellow students at A and M.
Same of us try to offer the excuse that we’re thinking aboat our
work when we’re going to and from classes, but' ian’t friendship and
assoeistion worth something? It seems that a student could forget his
sic worries long enough to pass a friendly salutation to those
and the good feeling and friendliness that comes from this
ty will probably warrant the few grade points (if any) that are

there until he was graduated the
following September. He then en
tered Kelly Field and left m Oc

he worked in a cotton mil until the
fall of 1928. His work there car
ried him into experimental lines
and his ambition at that time was;
to receive an education in textile

But for some reason his mind
was changed and he enrolled in
civil engineering at A aad M Col
lege as a freshman in 1928. He

neers of the Gnhreston Office. In

PRIVILEGES AGAIN M
It seem* that the seniors arc going to be forced into appeolbtg to
an oracle for a method of impressing upon the minds of the under
classman that there is such a thing as a senior privilege in existence
around A and M this year. The majority of the underclassmen profess
a £amt recollection of having heard the phrase “senior privileges”
mentioned when they are broached on the subject but none of them
art quite sure just where or under what circumstances they were forced
to listed to a discussion of so trivial and insignificant a topic. And the
aeaiors are showing a wdtingness to look calmly on while everyone
from freshmen to and including juniors usurp the special concessions
that are supposed to represent the reward of three years of conacien-
tious endaavor.
Mention previously has been made of the various offenses bu| one
that merits the attention of all concerned is the disregard of the sgnior
section (n the Assembly Hall. All underclasamen are supposed to |now

stairs n reserved for seniors and campus residents and .hat the first
two rov^s in the center balcony are for seniors only. Ignorance may
have been an excuse in the past but in the future no underclassmen
should pretend surprise or resentment if asked or told to move from |
the restricted areas. '
