Mpgf x men aad employees, under Federal laws aad under the IParm Credit Administration. Credit unions are cooperative as sociations operating for the pur pose of promoting thrift and creat ing a source of credit for provident d productive purposes. They do 4 operate as commercial banks, r to competition with them, hut s hitherto unsupplied need. This is accomplished by members accumulating savings, from which in turn members may receive loans are made with a minimum of delay, by application to the loan MARGARET HOLLING8HEAD The ten tennis courts on the A A M. campus arc certainly proving popular these days. Thera are six day courts; tws far faculty use, the remainder for student use, located across the street from the swimming pool and the gymnasium. South of Kyle Field and north of the project houses, with the AAA building to the east end highway 6 to the west, are four more courts, cement, and about seven years new the day courts. Thca. cement courts were built last year, at a cost of about $5,000. The day courts made their appearance in 19S2, to the tunc at exactly $4,152 Taking all of the courts together, with the maximum number of play era possible on each one, all of 32 lads, out of the 5,000 or mor sally around this city, could play tennis at once. That isn’t so good, but there is s nice, broad ray of sunshine to the fact that tentative plans are being made for the con struction at four more / cement courts, possibly within the year. There are several rules governing the use of the courts during rush hours. When there are players those on the courts must limit their play to one hour; and, since the courts are primarily for the use of students, others may use them only when there are no students waiting. Tennis classes are conducted for the students during the long ses- M also a tennis by Manning Smith. Five members of the tecum won minor sports letters this past year. The opening four games in the sofibsll league played simultane ously Tuesday, saw Lipscomb Phar macy, Seaboard Life, Aggie Clean, era. and the defending champions. Aggieland Pharmacy, steal the first ones to take a quick jump over the rest ef the entries. Lipscomb Pharmacy, led by - pitcher Burton Moncrief, downed the strong College Inn ten with a narrow margin of 1 to 0. Moncrief turned down 13 of 26 batters while his opposing hurler. Prod Rich mond. sent away 10 out at 25. Le roy Johnson accounted for the win ning tally in the fifth inning by go ing $o first on catcher’s error and later being sent home by J. L Hop Umjf The Seaboard Life team downed ' the College Laundry boys to a game that furnished the bystand ers with a couple of toughs as well ss some exciting happenings. The laundry boys placed five men on bases, but didn’t seem able to go mash further. R. Buckley pitching for the College Laundry allowed only two hits hut walked seven men.
