CORRECTION
In the Tuesday edition The Bat
talion erroneously stated in an ad
vertisement displayed for Waldrop
and Co. that Fortune shoes were
being sold for $5 to $6 and Red
Wing shoes for $3.95. The adver
tisement should have listed Edger-
ton’s, $5 to $6, Fortune shoes,
$3.95 and Red Wing shoes, $3.95.
This error was corrected in an ad
vertisement which appeared in the
Thursday edition. The Battalion
sincerely regrets that the error
was made.

Corps Dance—
(Continued from Page 1)
has been the heart and soul of that
section. 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”.

W. E. White, chief of the Forest
Protection Service at Lufkin was
appointed vice-director of the Tex

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.

THEY’RE COOLER,
MILDER, BETTER-TASTING
All over the country, more smokers
are buying Chesterfields today than ever
before because these Cooler, Better-Tasting
and Definitely Milder cigarettes give them
what they want. That’s why smokers call
Chesterfield the Smoker's Cigarette.
Smokers like yourself know they can
depend on Chesterfield’s Right Combination of
Turkish and Domestic tobaccos for the best things
of smoking. Chesterfield smokers get the benefits of
every modern improvement in cigarette making.

BETTER MADE FOR BETTER SMOKING
Here as seen in the new film "TOBACCO-
LAND, U. S. A." is Chesterfield's electric
detector. Twenty mechanical fingers ex
amine each cigarette in a pack and if
there is the slightest imperfection a light
flashes and the entire pack is automati
cally ejected.
