Hitch-Hiker—
(Continued from page 1)
Angeles, his rides were with a
lumberman and a newsreel camera-
Keyes remained in Los Angeles
several hours. Leaving Los An
geles he caught many short rides,
most of them with truck drivers.
It was in Cutter, Arizona, that he
had his longest wait of the en
tire cross-country., jaunt..—..two
hours. Temporarily giving up,
Keyes went to a wayside cafe and
bought his dinner, but this was
no sooner done than an architect
offered him a ride to El Paso. He
jumped at the chance to leave
Cutter and left his unfinished din
ner to proceed on the last lap of
his return trip. It was Saturday i
afternoon, July 8 at 5 p. m. when
Keyes finally drove over Texas soil
once again.
Around the nation in two weeks
. . . The Texan was now ready
for much needed sleep and took
advantage of his journey’s end
by spending eighteen hours catch
ing up on sleep lost at a hundred
different places throughout the
United States.
Truly an All-American hitch
hiker, if ever there was one, the
Club was successful . . . That his
reflector signs were effective in
securing rides day and night . . .
And, finally, that states with laws
making hitch-hiking illegal had no
recourse against his system of sit
ting at the side of the road and
holding up to passing motorists a
reflecting sign indicating the name
of the town to which he wished a
ride.

Zoning Committee—
(Continued from page 1)
business district was received sign
ed by students of the project
houses.
The commission did not zone ei
ther of these areas for the follow
ing reasons:
1. There is an over supply of
business frontage already partial-
business forntage already partial
ly developed.
2. It would be better to have a
concentrated business area with
shopping centers than a diffusion
of stores.
3. To avoid encroaching busi
ness zones upon those not desir
ing them and to cause business is
to develop in a place where there
are people who desire and expect it.
4. Establishment of business
districts in areas not served by an
eight inch water main would pen
alize the whole city by increasing
fire insurance rates.
The zone for dwelling areas set
aside one district for apartment
houses and one for homes.
The subject of a franchise to
the telephone company to legally
operate in College Station was con
sidered. This subject will be taken
up again later and the date an
nounced so that the student ap
pointed by the Welfare Commit
tee might attend.
Attention was called to the fact
that city taxes are due on or be
fore the 15th of December. The
City Council asks that taxpayers
meet payments as soon as possible
since operations are being carried
on with borrowed capital.
Song Suggested for Thanksgiving Use
Following are the words of the
song “God Bless America.”
One of the larger colleges of
this country used this song on
Armistice Day, with the band play
ing the music and the entire stu
dent body singing. The song,
which proved quite effective, has
been suggested by a number of
people for use at A. & M. on
Thanksgiving Day.
The song is indeed appropriate
for such an occasion, and The Bat
talion prints the words with the
suggestion that the song be used
at that time.
“GOD BLESS AMERICA”
God bless America, land that I love.
Stand beside her and guide her
Through the night, with the light
from above.
From the mountain to the prairie,
O’er the ocean white with foam,
God bless America, my native
home.
A. & M. win games, and the stand
ards you people have set for your
selves are so high, that unless the
odd against Texas A. & M. are ter
rific, it is more or less the normal
thing to expect that the Texas Ag
gies will wind up on the long end
of the score. So we chose Cornell
for the salute on November 2nd
because they had come from behind
against terrific odds, and we hoped
to be able to salute Texas A. &
A. at a later date.
Unfortunately for our plans,
however, after the show of Novem
ber 2nd, it was found necessary to
discontinue the sports spot, that
section of the Kraft Music Hall
in which Bing talked about a col
lege and then sang the college
song. It is unfortunate that
Bing’s letter of October 25th was
interpreted to mean that we were
going to do the “Texas Aggie War
Hymn” on the program of Novem
ber 2nd.
You may rest assured that if
we renew our college sports-spot,
Texas A. & M. will be one of the
first to receive our attention.

Unexpected Guest—
(Continued from page 1)
stammering, and wild gesticulating,
Mr. Drookenheimer told of condi
tions in “Der Federland” and pre
sented the German viewpoint. The
room actually shook with suppress
ed laughter. Occasionally some
one, not being able to control him
self any longer, would burst out
in laughter, to the apparent cha
grin of Mr. Drookenheimer.
Mr. Drookenheimer then walked
to the front of the room, ceased
stuttering, and was introduced as
“Dutch” Hohn, whereupon he gave
the club a very interesting talk
on conditions in Europe today.
For those who don’t remember,
Caesar Hohn, much better known
as “Dutch,” was captain of the
Aggie football team of 1911, and
one of the all-time Aggie grid-
ders. He worked around Brenham
for many years, and in Houston
for a time, in soil conservation
work, and returned to College Sta
tion a few years ago. He is now
specialist in soil and water con
servation for the Texas Extension
Service stationed here. “Dul^h” has
addressed midnight yell practices
of the Aggie corps on several oc
casions.
Just before the club meeting was
adjourned, John Rosser, the new
manager of radio station WTAW,
wandered in and was asked to
speak. Upon being informed that
he was before the Marketing and
Finance Club, h5 declared that he
was in favor of marketing and fi
nance, and sat down without fur
ther ado.
The meeting was adjourned be
fore any further humor could get
started.
Campus Study Club
Members Hold Meet
The Campus Study Club met re
cently in the Mess Hall Annex.
Mrs. L. M. Haupt presided over
the business meeting in the ab
sence of the president, Mrs. Rog
ers. Mrs. John Ashton, chairman
of the education committee, pre
sented a report on trends in mod
ern education. She spoke particu
larly of the work of President
Hutchins of the University of
Chicago.
Following the business meeting,
an interesting program was pre
sented. Mrs. T. R. Freeman was
hostess and presented the ladies
who took part in the program.
Mrs. J. R. Ketchersid reviewed
the book “Romance of Wood” by
Malcolm H. Sherwood. She titled
her talk “From Forest to Furni
ture.”
Mr. Sherwood has worked with
trees, wood, and furniture for many
years. His book is profusely il
lustrated with photographs of
logging and transportation meth
ods. The book is divided into two
sections. The first deals with the
story of each particular wood,
treating first with those found in
America, followed by those of
Europe, Africa, South America,
and the Orient. The second section
of the book concerns the little
known physical properties of wood
and anecdotes concerning wood. It
describes the manufacture of
veneers and plywoods. Many in
teresting facts concerning the his
torical use of veneers are given.
Mrs. L. S. Payne discussed par
liamentary procedure with the
group. The constitution of the
club was read and all points about
which there was any question were
discussed.
