The manner of selecting mem
bers of the society has been chang
ed this year from the system used
in previous years. The system now
in effect provides that the top 8%
of the seniors in each school and
the top 4% of the juniors in each
school become members in the
society if they have no F’s. The
percentage requirements are based
on the number of grade points.
Heretofore members in the Scholar
ship Honor Society have been made
up of the top 75 juniors and sen
iors in each class, but the new sys
tem makes the group more select
than in the past.
The Scholarship Honor Society,
which was founded to give students
recognition for outstanding schol
arship, meets every second and
fourth Thursday nights. Officers
of the organization, besides Guy,
include D. B. Varner, vice-presi
dent, and Carl Schnieder, secretary-
treasurer.
The next meeting of the organ
ization will be held January 25 in
the Civil Engineering lecture room.

in Sbisa Hall Wednesday evening
at 7 o’clock with Prof. Charles

Football Debate—

debates, Pres. John G. Bowman as
serted that recent; sports staff up
heavals at Pitt were made because
“we want most of all that foot
ball be a game for students. I
want to keep the game on a truly
amateur basis here.”
However, simon-pure football is
not receiving the support of all
students, for at many colleges un
dergraduates have begun move
ments to subsidize players so that
losing streaks may be stopped. At
the University of Buffalo, the stu
dent newspaper asked the college
to give ten tuition scholarships a
year to men who would be the
nucleus for winning grid teams.
Most drastic move in the direc
tion of non-subsidization of play
ers in any form was made by a
conference of 30 New England col
leges. The code adopted at this
conference prohibits coaches from
contacting future players and from
speaking at high school meetings,
Football Team Feast
Scheduled Tonight
Frank Simon will give a ban
quet this afternoon beginning at
5:30 at the “rural room” in honor
of the football team.
Simon has been one of the lead
ing supporters of Coach Homer
Norton’s charges ever since he has
been in business around the col
lege, and has the best picture lay
out of the football players to be
seen at A. & M. It is one that
includes some 25 players’ signed
pictures around a large squad pic
ture.
Invitations have already been
made and Simon has announced
that the supper will be over in
time for the boys to attend the
Aggie-Rice basketball game, which
will begin right after the fresh
man game between the two schools.
and it makes mandatory the keep
ing of public records of financial
aid received by all athletes at mem
ber schools. This record must
show that an individual receives
financial aid only from those up
on whom he is naturally dependant
for support—otherwise he will be
declared ineligible.
Meanwhile, the National Collegi
ate Athletic Association side
stepped the entire subsidization is
sue by ruling at its national con
vention that no aid should be given
college athletes except pay for
legitimate work. The resolution
added that workers must put in
their time honestly. Of course,
violations would call for drastic
action against disobeying institu
tions.
Despite all this talk for amateur
football, all those directly and in
directly concerned are watching
with great interest the progress
that southern schools are making
with open-and-above-board schol
arships to athletes that pay board,
room, tuition and a little spend
ing money.

“For Better Cleaning”
The
Model Cleaners
Charles C. Peterson, famed bil
liard expert of St. Louis, Missouri,
paid his second visit to the A. &
M. campus Monday for three dem
onstration in the Y.M.C.A. lobby.
The first exhibition was held at
10 a. m., the second at 2 p. m. and
the third at 7 p. m. to near capac
ity audiences each time.
Peterson, who has taken an ac
tive part in the promotion of bil
liards in the United States for the
past 45 years, came to A. & M.
from Loyola University and from
here went to San Antonio for an
exhibition at Randolph Field. He
is scheduled for a nation-wide tour
in the interest of intercollegiate
billiards.
Intercollegiate billiard contests
conducted by telegraph have been
promoted largely due to his ef
forts, a.nd are now being sponsored
by the Association of College Un
ions headed by H. E. Pride of Iowa
State University. The aim of this
organization is to divide the Unit
ed States into four sections, and to
-THURSDAY, JAN. 18, 1940
conduct intersectional and intra
sectional matches to determine the
national college champion.
Peterson lends variety to every
exhibition in the same appearance
by using different shots and stress
ing different fine points of the
game.
Further development in intercol
legiate billiards is the formation
of a women’s division. Hlinois
University launched the first
women’s team last year.
Peterson began his series of an
nual billiard appearances in 1931
at Wisconsin University in an ef
fort to revive the game, which
he says began to die during the
depression.

Here’s ace bike rider Cecil Yates burning up the track at
Madison Square Garden. He’s won eight six-day bike races!

TT7HEN Cecil sprints, the track fairly smokes. But
V V when Cecil smokes, speed’s the last thing he wants
in his cigarette. Because cigarettes that burn fast can’t

bacco’s elements of flavor and fragrance. The result is a
~ t' i, hot y flat, unsatisfactory smoke. - , ;v v

and more fragrant”—science and common sense both say
so. And the slowest-butning cigarette of the 16 largest-
selling brands tested 'was ' Camel! (The panel to your
