“BRYAN’S LEADING CLOTHIERS”
Sugar Bowl Trip—
(Continued from page 1)
You’re right, New Orleans night
life is without parallel, and in any
one of the city’s countless night
spots you could have heard a bois
terous singing of the “Aggie War
Hymn” or the Aggie yell “Farmers
Fight.”
Sure we went there to see a
football game, and when the time
came that’s what we did. Most of
us have since decided that the old
story about the sardines in a can
was invented by someone on a New
Orleans street car. Crowded
though it was, it was the cheapest
way to get to the stadium. Via
street car the fare was ten cents,
while taxis were charging $10 and
up.
Well, there’s nothing about the
game which I could tell you that
you probably haven’t already read
or heard. Yes, you’re certainly
right there, the stadium is a beau
tiful one and although the corps
saw the game from end-zone seats,
most of us were well satisfied be
cause three of the four touchdowns
were made in our end of the field—
including both the Aggie scores.
Oh, yes, and thanks a lot for
phoning; I’m surely glad to have
talked to you. How’s that? . . .
Right again; it’s a safe bet that
twenty years from now at the
Turkey Day game in 1959 the re
turning “exes” will be saying to
each other: “Remember that day
in New Orleans back in 1940!”
his program stands out in their minds as
one of the best we have ever had. Don’t
miss it. The meeting will adjourn before

made a survey of 18 of the out
standing schools located in various
parts of the United States and
arrived upon the following aver
ages: Floor space for adminis
tration, 4.4%; for circulation,
17.1%; for instruction, 63.8%; for
services, 9.5%, and for accessories,
5.2%. They then figured the same
percentage for the new school,
which are: Floor space for ad
ministration, 3%; for circulation,
0%, for instruction, 91%; for
services, 3%, and for accessories,
3%. Each unit of the school was
built to face South to take ad
vantage of the prevailing winds.
Each building is of wooden frame
construction and was intentionally
designed to endure not more than
30 years. The designers recognized
the fact that schools are soon out
moded because of the changing
trends in teaching. They there
fore chose a plant which is rela
tively inexpensive and easily re
placed.
The architects, Langford and
Finney, also spent quite some time
in determining the location. They
considered closely each section of
the community and studied the de
velopment of each. It was decided
that in the following years College
Station would develop largely to
the south, and that most of the
students would come from that di
rection.

Kreutzberg and Mary Wigman. It
was while studying at the famous
von Laban Choreographic Institute
in Berlin that Miss Cornell met
Kurt Graff and they began work
ing together.
At this time, Kurt Graff was
a solo dancer in the Berlin Staats-
oper and also assistant to Rudolph
von Laban.
Kurt Graff’s father tried to cure
his son’s desire to dance by map
ping out a career in medicine for
him, but to no avail. Finally after
many family arguments, Graff
was allowed to study under the
guidance of von Laban. He soon
became solo dancer in Laban’s
famous Kammertanz group and as
sistant to von Laban, later being
sent to Paris to help found a
branch of the von Laban Choreo
graphic Institute there.
After a time in Paris, Mr. Graff
returned to Germany where he ap
peared at the Bayreuth Festival
under the orchestral direction of
Toscanini. For a season he was
soloist with the Joos Ballet, re
signing from that organization to
fill the place vacated by Kreutz
berg as premier danseur of the
Berlin Staatsoper.
On leave of absence from the
Staatsoper, Mr. Graff came to
America to collaborate with Miss
Cornell. This collaboration sent

appeared in many of the major

returned to Europe the following
year to fill a series of engage
