Dr. Etttnger, who has just com
pleted 25 years of service at the
UnhrefSiti, is devoting his efforts
thb year raising funds for the en
dowment of a Chair of Hebrew
learning for the Southwest at Tex

recently acquired the Schechtel
Memorial Library, a collection of
books in the Jewish field consisting
of approximately 8,000 volumes.
This was presented to Texas

personal efforts. It is now his am
bition to endow a Chair of Hebrew
learning that will foster the use
of the library, and promote the
knowledge of Jesrish literature, his
tory, and philosophy in the South

endowed Chairs of Jewish Learning
in the country, the Littauer Chair
at Harvard University and the Mil
ler Chair at Columbia University.

FOSTER WISE—
(Continued from page l)
Just before the parade started
we happened to notice the bracelet
| Molly was wearing. A small geld
barrel inscribed “Flour Not Pork",
dangled from the gold chain aroWAd
her wrist The political touch, no
doubt.
Molly rat on a high, white seat
in the middle of the floet with
Potts and me oa each side of her.
The parade started and after we
had gone about a block the floet
was stopped so that photographers
could get pictures of Molly. Fren
ch and 1 did oar best to work up
a good smile bat we looked more
like a couple of jackasses eating
cactus.
Molly came through like a real
trouper and gave that “ million
dollar smile," though.
Someone recognised Molly at the
first crowd and from then on the
received numerous cheers and a
great deal of applause from the en
tire crowd all along the way—4hat
ia, until we met the first Aggies
end they started that so 'well
knowa phrase of “Please pass the
biscuits, Pappy." AU in all, Molly
received the applause and Francis
and I received the raising.
