(Continued from page 2)
College Station postmistress in
memory of her husband, the late
Robert F. Smith, who was a pro
fessor in the Mathematics Depart
ment before his death. She also
presented watches in his memory
to the first and second place win
ners in the contest for freshmen.
The second place watch for soph
omores was given by the Mathe
matics Department and the third
prize award of $10 was given by
A. M. Waldrop, Bryan.
In the freshman contests first
place and the Robert F. Smith
watch went to W. M. Adkisson,
Enid, Okla., and the second place
Smith watch was awarded to S. R.
Baen, San Antonio. Third place
prize of $10 given by the Aggie-
land Pharmacy, College Station,
was won by Earl C. Hartman,
Houston. Pearce and Hartman
were the only two winners entered
in both contests.

also decided that senior hatcords
would be worn with the boots in
all cases.
A vote was called to decide the
wearing of light khaki pants in
the warmer months, but it was re
called when it was learned that if
passed, the order would make their
use imperative. According to a
statement from the President’s Of
fice, the khaki pants would be
replaced similar to the way khaki
shirts replace serge shirts at drill
now. In view of dissenting opin
ion, president Tom Richey appoint
ed a committee to further inves
tigate the matter and report their
findings to the class next week,
when the matter would be put to
another and deciding vote.

that subject, with men with know
ledge of the metal trades most in
demand.
Horticulture graduates, number
ing 13, have been placed with com
mercial vegetable farms as man
agers and two of them are going
to operate their own farms. Land
scape art had four candidates and
all of them are placed, one already
in business before he completed
the course.
A total of 42 of the graduates
expect to continue their education
by enrolling in law or medicine

Other departments placing all of
the graduates include: Physics 1;
