Indeed there are few words to
describe the singing of this negro
group, to whom singing is equiva
lent to emotional breathing. Aban
doned gestures, subtle swaying,
and an obvious joy in their song
mark the performance of every
piece. No other race delivers itself
to rhythmic chant in so complete
and pulsating way.
This group proves one thing, and
that is that it takes negroes to
sing negro spirituals. Only a neg
ro group such as this can give an
exhibition of naturalness, of exul
tation, and of the joy of expression
of moods that we of our race pre
fer to keep concealed. The Fisk
Singers are noted above all else
for their interpretation of and
presentation of the negro spirit
uals of which we are so proud.

The economife survey will begin
immediately and another joint
meeting will be held to hear the
report in 60 days, it was decided.
Friday night the 12 o’clock yell
practice marked a turn to the
worse. It was praised by a few as
the best they’ve heard in two years
and yet that doesn’t say very much.
Gathered around in their little
groups were Aggies who had
brought their dates out to see one
of the traditional mid-night ses
sions. For the short time of its
duration, they couldn’t refrain from
talking to the fairer anes. The re
sult was that the chatter on the
outside grew louder than that com
ing from the steps, even though at
times the latter was much better.
Two years ago on the Y steps,
Hub Aston raised the spirits of
the Aggies so much that the scribes
wrote the game story with the
fight of the cadets more in the
praises than the heavy defeat T.C.
U. handed them.
We cried as the victory song
came pouring over us and Hub pac
ed the steps pleading and asking
for the real spirit of the team,
not for himself. The next day a
great A.&M. team was turned back
by the Frogs but the twelfth man
had the real thing.
Last Saturday on Kyle Field, the
corps filled the stand and let the
game go as it would. The team
was ready and yet the twelfth man
was still unseasoned. Each class
in its own section yelled when
they saw fit and as they received
the signals they let it go at that.
The seniors high in the stands had
little chance' to give the personal
yells for the names of the retiring
players never traveled that far.
Still, maybe at times that was for
the better, for one player was giv
en a yell on his entrance into the
game and also on his leaving.
A reform must come about. Per
haps the new yell stand, if there is
going to be one, will solve the prob
lem. Baylor is a gunnin’; Arkansas
has gone down twice and will be
fighting for all she is worth, Rice
has surprised a few and will slip
Up on a few more, and the stories
of the Mustangs and the Longhorns
