Col. Moore—
(Continued from page 3)
one half hours by boat from the
city of Manila, cosmopolitan me
tropolis of the Islands, main sup
ply base of our Asiatic Fleet, and
farthermost stronghold of the
United States far east; and so this
Corregidor, this famous “ROCK”,
which with its four smaller auxil
iary island forts, absolutely com
mands the entrance to both Manila
and Subic Bays, is truly the “Gi
braltar” of the Philippines.
Although General Moore is by
far the “most important” Aggie on
the “ROCK”, he is by no means the
only one. First Lieutenant S. D.
“Bloody” Bruns, ’34, is Executive
Officer of Battery “A” of the fa
mous 59th Coast Ai’tillery (Harbor
Defense); 1st Lieutenant John B.
“Mac” McCIuskey, Jr., ’36, is as
signed to the staff of the Regimen
tal Commander of the 59th Coast
Artillery as Assistant Adjutant.
Also assigned to the 59th Coast
Artillery are 2nd Lieutenant H. J.
“Brig” Schutte, ’39, and 2nd Lieu
tenant W. E. “Butch” Lewis, ’39.
To the 60th Coast Artillery (Anti-
Aircraft) are assigned 1st Lieu
tenant James R. “Jimmy” Holmes,
’36, (West Point, ’38), and 2nd
Lieutenant Carl E. “Pip” Pipkin,
’40. Indeed it was a “right” proud
little group of A. & M. men of the
“ROCK” that radioed their greet
ings and congratulations to Gener
al Moore at sea enroute when the
flash came through that he was
being sent by the War Department
to command the defenses. It might
be added, also, that General Moore
is among the army’s youngest gen
erals.
And so it is with resolute confi
dence that those from Aggieland
who help “man the steel” on Cor
regidor stand our “watches at the
helm,” but with added satisfac
tion and with pride that one of
“our own” “stands on the bridge”
to “chart the course.”

Highlights of the past weekend of festivities carried on by the c ompany of Ross Volunteers as pictured above are traditional functions
of the organization which holds its celebrations during the spring hoi idays each year. It is on this account that the holidays are often
referred to as the Ross Volunteer holidays.
In the top picture are King Jim Gallagher and his Queen Esther Mae Colombo with their royal court. On the left is Princess Rachael
Corder with Jean Penberthy, one of the queen’s attendants. On the right is Prince Joe Slicker with Lee Adcock, another of the queen attend
ants. Seated before the king is the king’s page, Tom Souter Terrell.
Below and to the left is pictured the exhibition drill presented Friday afternoon for the benefit of the various campus visitors.
At the lower right is dinner part of the dinner-dance. Identified in the picture are (left to right) Capt. and Mrs. W. S. McCulley, Lieut.
Col. and Mrs. James A. Watson, Rachael Corder and Joe Slicker.

area is already completed and con
struction will start immediately.
Additions to the power plant to
take care of the new dormitories
and extension of utilities to the
new area are provided in the bill.
Chief occupant of the office
building will be state headquarters
of the Agricultural Adjustment
Act for Texas. Now housed in a
wooden building it was necessary
to provide a new building or lose
the headquarters. Rental of the
building by the AAA will retire
the money borrowed for its cons
truction. It is possible that other
federal agencies may also be
brought to the campus with these
facilities available.
Karowmen—

nant after a stalemate of a week.
Coach Cecil Grigg’s vaunted Rice'
Owls are dwelling far in the cellar
with one victory and six defeats.
They were rated as a definite
threat to the Aggies and Long
horns at the start of the season,
but have wilted away to a crisp.
Lack of hitting power is their
main weakness, and unless Coach
Grigg can solve that trouuble, the
Bayou boys will be definitely in the
pink. Their pitching has been well
above par, but the batters just
can’t seem to connect. Ragged
fielding was a big cause in their
North Texas downfall in which
they were plastered by T. C. U. and
S.M.U.

With the stars, and with every smoker
who enjoys Chesterfield’s Definitely Milder,>
Cooler, Decidedly Better Taste, Chesterfield is
known as the smoker’s cigarette.
Its famous combination of the best tobaccos

and Greece makes Chesterfield the one cigarette
that truly satisfies.
