' Quin to Dedicate Chapel.
Give Principal Address
* 0, ; | • \ n® *..
The laying of the corner-stone
and the dedication of St. Thomas’
Chapel will take place Friday after,
noon, September 23, at 4 p. m. The
Rt. Rev. Clinton S Quin, Episcopal
tthfcapi of the Diocese of Texas,
will be the dedicator and will tnakc
the principal address. The i
Episcopal Chapel la located at the
edge of the College Park and Oak-
wood additions on the south-east
side of the campus.
The Chapel is the result of many
years of labor on the part of Epis
copal laymen, lay-women, and cler
gymen, and students in the college
have been looking forward to it’s
oompletioa. Their patience and
their efforts have now been re
warded with a beautifully appoint
ed building, which, according to
the architect's description, is a
modified, old English type Chapel.
The exterior of the building is
brick, with a fire-proof roof, and
s modest, Celtit-type Cross over
the entrance. The interior of the
building presents a harmony »f
natural colors with oak floors, a
dark i»Uuned ceiling, and plain.
•White pine pauelliitg for the tide
walls. The furnishings in the build
ing also blend with these colors,
and by their Churrhly appearance
lend an nir of reverancc to the in
terior of the Chapel

With a better one”, Aggie Coach
Homer Horten told sports editors
who were questioning his new
“double-shuffle” which will be trier)
out for the first time on s football
field against an opponent when the
Cadets play the Texad A. A I. Jave-
linas on Kyis Field Saturday.
And Horton is right, for the
"double-shuffle" $* “screwy" and
has had all the sports writers who
have seen it going ground in circles
trying to discover how it works.
Hot only sports writers are dixxy
over the whole business, but last
Saturday, after running away with
the “Fish” and reserve testis, Hor
ten shifted his A team lip to the
“FishT side, substituted hit C line
for the regular starters, and then
even the first stringers had diffi
culty with the thing.
“There is one thing about this
idea”, Horton said, ”aad that is it
is going to make a change in this
five-man line business and also is
going to make the defease figure
a little harder if they think they,
have the answer when we line up.
“I can’t say for sure if we will
use R.all season until 1 see how it
works in s game, but if it dpesn’t
look good we can throw it out and
forget all about it without affect
ing our offense one bit”
