Henry hails originally from Marlin, but now is residing in Bryan with his wife and daughter. Joe (Jug) Germany the last of the Greenville clan, is playing his fourth year in the band. Joe is also a member of the Aggie Band and is majoring in Chemical En gineering. Ask any member of the Band and they will tell you that Joe is one of the hardest working mem bers of the band. Joe plays second trumpet and to all you guys who have heard the band before, I need not tell you of Joe’s fine ability in the brass section. “Scotty” Scott of Port Arthur is a new man in the band. He does most of the jamming in the brass section getting away from so much blare, playing a more restrained, pleasing style of trumpet. “Fish” McGregor, who hails from Ballinger, is a new man in the band. Fish Me has played trom bone for the last eight years and now holds the national trombone soloist title. Before coming to A.& M. he played in a dance band in San Angelo, and is expected to be a great help in filling the hole in the brass section left by Charles “Chu” Berry who was unable to return to school this year. “Sug” Frank Barnes, also an other new member of the band, hails from Bryan. He slaps the huge five-fourths base fiddle which he recently purchased as an anti que in a very unique and pleasing manner. Sug has played before with dance and symphony orches tra’s so he should be able to put out any type of rythmn you can request. Freddy Nelson, another new member of the band, hails from Ft. Worth and plays the ivories with such a style that it makes it hard for you to forget him. Freddy is also an experienced member hav ing played with dance bands all over the state. After much persua sion from the hoys in the band Freddy left the old home town and joined the band and after you hear his unique style I know that you will be just as glad he came to Ag gieland as the boys in the band The dance will start promptly at 9 o’clock with the Aggieland’s old maestro’s, Jack Littlejohn, own composition, “Living My Life for You”. Board Votes— (Continued from Page 1) ably will be hung later in the A. & M. Animal Industries building. The expenditure of $800 for a cyclorama for Guion Hall was ap proved. This curtain will be used for the Town Hall series. W. E. White, chief of the Forest Protection Service at Lufkin was appointed vice-director of the Tex as Forest Service. His headquarters will remain at Lufkin. / The candy concession for dormi tories was placed in the hands of 0. R. Simpson, student labor chair man. Heretofore campus confect ioners had handled the sale in dor mitories. The A. & M. Exchange -SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1940 Store will purchase the supplies and they will be warehoused in the Mess Hall. Mr. Simpson will as sign students to handle retail sales on commission basis. Wholesale profits will be used for purposes of student welfare, it was decided. Any student who is called for service in the Texas National Guard will be refunded his fees and de posits, according to another motion passed by the Board of Directors.
