Dr. Patterson— (Continued from Page 1) “The Latin Americans are nat urally skeptical of the good neigh bor policy of President Roosevelt because of their unfortunate ex perience with the United States in the last World War”, said Dr. Pat terson. “We must do everything in our power to show that our good neighbor policy is going to last for more than merely the dur ation of the crisis that we are ex periencing today.” “There is no need for us to continue the ‘good will’ tours as they have been conducted in the past; the thing that the South American people want from us is a sympathetic understanding of their problems, which are also our prob lems.” One of the chief reasons for the strained relations that exist in our country is because of the attitude of the Texans toward the Mexi cans who come to this country. The “No Mexicans Served Here” signs that abound in this state do not have a tendency to promote the good will of our southern neigh bors. Dr. Patterson was emphatic in the point that Texas has one of the greatest roles to play in the fostering of better relations between the two Americas. The meeting was started by the Model Airplane— (Continued from Page I) pair of aviation type sunglasses was presented to Tom Gibbons whose model made the longest sin gle flight of the meet. They were presented by the Kadet Aviation Co. which is the concern that gives flight training to C. P. T. students. There were 71 entries listed in three classes. In class A, Tommy Gibbons of Graham placed first; Wallie Samp son, second; Roy Clark, third; and A. Weber, fourth. In class B, Billie Bishop, first; Roy Clai’k, second; Norman Web er, third; and R. Stophill, fourth. In class C, Normal Weber, first; N. Newton, second; Edwin Keep er, third; and Robert Bonnell, fourth. Lieut. Meldrum— (Continued Trom Page 1) seven months officer’s training course. While there he met a former A. & M. student, Bush Nor ton. After finishing the course in February of this year, Meldrum was then placed on his present duty. Reports are that he will be or dered aboard the heavy cruiser Philadelphia in June which is to Singing Cadets under the leader ship of J. J. Woolket; the Singing Cadets concluded their portion of the program with “Taps”. After the conclusion of the musical part of the program, the speaker of the evening, Dr. Patterson, was introduced by J. Wheeler Barger, chairman of the program commit tee. be sent to duty in the Red Sea, and from the looks of the foreign situation, he won’t have a dull time. During one of his former visits here he attended the Cavalry Ball and, as many visitors do on jaunts to A. & M., ate in the mess hall, after which he commented, “You certainly have good chow.” From a man who eats on board ships, that may be something.

And to champion Ben Hogan, Camel’s extra mildness is mighty important. Important to any smoker... to you... no matter how much you smoke... because this extra mild ness is in the smoke itself. After all, it’s the smoke you smoke. And Camels give you less nicotine in the smoke than any of the other 4 largest- selling brands tested ... 28% less than the average of the other brands. Even if you’re only an occasional smoker, you’ll find Camel’s extra mildness—extra freedom from nicotine in the smoke—can add to your smoking enjoyment. Switch to Camels now!
