Quentin Reynolds, foreign cor respondent and experienced jour nalist, is a familiar name to the reading and listening public. His newsreel “London Can Take It” has been seen in 15,000 of the na tion’s 17,000 theatres, and his book, “The Wounded Don’t Cry,” is a current best seller. Though prob ably more well-known as a writer, Reynolds is a calm and convincing speaker and achieves his effect without dramatics. The appearance of the Houston Symphony Orchestra is now an annual affair due to popular de mand. Comprising between 75 and 80 members the orchestra is the finest collection of musicians in the Southwest. Ernest Hoffman, conductor of the orchestra since 1935, has achieved fame through out the nation for his brilliant con ducting, his style, and his inter pretations. The Singing Cadets, Aggieland’s own singing organization, will re turn to next year’s series after a very successful current season, in which they gave a command Town Hall performance. One in a series of programs de signed to bring the best in the field of entertainment to the cam pus, next year’s program will mark the third year the organization has operated under the name of Town Hall. Numbers presented in this year’s series were the U. S. Marine Band, the Fisk Jubilee Singers, the Hous ton Symphony Orchestra, Jean Dickenson, the Littlefield Ballet, The Singing Cadets, William L. White, Ira Lee Sullivan, Duke El lington, and Darrel L. Brady. Eight regional scholarships rep resenting a total value of $12,800 are being offered for the first time in 1941-42 by Hamilton college. Midwestern Federation of Cam pus Co-operatives will meet next year at the University of Minne sota. The Modernaires Everything is news with the Modernaires, outstanding quar tet of radio, one of the latest additions to Glenn Miller’s “Chester field Moonlight Serenade.” They sing everything swingable, swing everything singable. Left to right. Bill Conway, Harold Dickenson, Chuck Goldstein and Ralph Bronstein give with a smile over CBS airwaves. Brady Speaks— (Continued from Page 1) ican youth today. He spent three years in Europe working for the Scout movement and earning his own way and attending several European Universities. In spite of his youth Darrell Brady has travel ed in 27 foreign countries. Here is what he said, “I wanted to do the things people write and act about— go out and see for myself—see be yond the horizon. I wanted to do it and so I did. I went beyond it and it was more than I hoped for. Real, fascinating and full of oppor tunity. That’s what I want to tell. I want to tell people that they are half-gods, not weak incapable worms who must crawl in miser able ruts all of their lives.” The subject of Brady’s lecture will be “How to Start a Business on an Idea and Make it Pay and Have Fun Doing it.” He did this very thing. It all began when he “starved” on an American college campus and it made him sore to be socially, and scholastically stop ped because he didn’t have any money. So he went to work to make money and did it. “I’d like to tell how to start a business on a shoe string,” Brady stated, “and make it pay and have fun doing it. I just had an idea about cows! Very simple but new—if I can do it, others can too! “Sure I got socked on the chin and went hungry” says Brady but I’m bragging about it now. People told me I couldn’t do it and laughed at me. But I worked my way through 27 countries and studied at six of the world’s greatest univer sities, but the biggest lesson I learned was living with the com mon people of those countries and that’s what I want to tell—what I learned from the people.” High School Swim— (Continued from Page 3) portunity, one man may compete in only two events. Accommodations have been ar ranged for an overflow crowd ex pected to witness these statewide swimming champions in open com petition, and Adamson has planned the meet in detail to avoid unne cessary delay. All races are to be run under National Scholastic rules and records made are eligi ble for acceptance into national record books. No admission is to be charged as has been the policy in the past. Teams registered with Coach Adamson by Friday afternoon were Adamson High of Dallas, Bracken- ridge High of San Antonio, San Jacinto High of Houston, Tech High of Santonio, Highland Park of Dallas, Stephen F. Austin of Houston, A. & M. Consolidated High of College Station, Sunset High of Dallas, Griener Junior High of Dallas, and Austin High of El Paso. Kyle Field— (Continued from Page 3) tensive treatments. Phil Wrigley, owner of the Chicago Cubs and Dean, went deep into the old mon ey bag for Diz’s price, and he has gotten little in return. However, Dean has been the hottest thing that side of the Mississippi and it was probably worth the chance. “Dizzy” is a coach for the Cubs now, but his pitching days gone by should stay around in John Q. Public’s mind a long time. 20 New Polo Mounts for 1941 - 1942 Aggie Club Notice has been received by the Cavalry instructors that 20 new Plan Permits Dorm Occupation A plan to permit unmarried male employees of the college to room in the dining hall dormitory has been approved by the board of di rectors and details of the move are being completed by J. C. Hotard, director of the college mess halls, E. M. Holmgreen, business manager of the college announced Friday. Extra rooms are now available in the dormitory. This plan will give college employees an oppor tunity to live more cheaply. “This plan will enable the college to more fully utilize its facilities,” Holm- green said. summer for the team of 1941-42. Manager Clyde Raley and player Bill Braid have made arrange ments to spend the vacation per iod in College Station training these ponies. Probably they are remounts and uneducated in mal let-swinging ways, but Braid and Raley should get them ready. Jackson Field may be moved, in cidentally, to the Cavalry drill grounds near where the horse show ring is located. This will oc cur if present ideas are worked out. Freshman Baseball Team Finds Conference Going Hard Texas A. & M.’s freshman base ball team ran into difficulties in their invasion of Baylor terri tory Thursday afternoon and Bruin freshman Star Howard Wa fer set the Cadets down with three scratch hits while his teammates pounded out an 11 to 1 win. Wa fer had the Aggies well in hand throughout the contest and Bay lor was never headed. The first year men have found the going rough in conference competition and they have not fared well. Material is scanty in the pitchers position and although several players are prospects for varsity harness in future seasons, they have been unable to stop the noisy bats of opposing clubs. De fensive play has been lacking al so. Probable improvement is expect ed next year, according to Aggie coaches, and shellackings will not be as common. Should A. & M. come through for a varsity con ference flag, good high school stars will be more available and this means more wins than moral victories. University of Minnesota students are heavier, healthier and taller than they were a decade ago, but they have 10 per cent more tooth decay. There are two George Strebels— father and son—enrolled in the en gineering defense training course being given by Cornell university polo mounts will arrive early this college of engineering. Aggies Win— (Continued from Page 3) walked to fill the bases, and Bump ers scored as Scoggins skied to left. Then came the eighth frame in which the cadets scored the win ning run without a hit. With two down, Pugh walked. Bostick, the Longhorn catcher, became jittery and let two balls get through with Pugh advancing each time. Carden then bunted a perfect sacrifice to score Pugh. Brilliant and sparkling play fea tured the game. Jack Lindsey’s play at the middle sack was superb, while Les Croucher’s handling of the hot corner was the Longhorn fielding contribution. SMU Mustangs Make 11 Miscues as Baylor Bears Victorious, 9-4 Southern Methodist and Baylor played their final game in Dallas Thursday and the Bruins took the Southwest Conference clash 9 to 4. It was an easy win for Baylor as the Mustangs booted, kicked, and juggled the ball to make 11 errors in nine innings. Despite 5. M. U.’s terrific team total of errors, however, second baseman Willis of Baylor contributed three miscues for individual faults. Baylor is scheduled to play Tex as A. & M. a game that was rain ed out earlier in the season, in the event the Aggies win from Texas University in their present series. This tilt will take place in Waco if it is played, and A. & M. will experience another Baylor team hustle as was shown in their last out. The Cadets will need a vic tory from Baylor to aid in their quest of a conference pennant. -SATURDAY, MAY 17, 1941 Show Tonight To Benefit Foreign Fund A benefit show, “Come Lave With Me,” which is sponsored by the Y. M. C. A., will be presented to night at 10:30 at the Assembly Hall for the purpose of raising money for the World Student Ser vice Fund, a national organization for the purpose of raising money to help students in foreign coun tries. The W.S.S.F. was organized by the colleges and universities of the United States to collect funds to help students of foreign coun tries who, because of the war, are unable to get needed equipment and books to continue their studies. A goal of $100,000 has been set for the whole country. Most of the money is collected by Y. M. C. A.’s and Y. W. C. A.’s all over the country. Mr. Claude Nelson, former sec retary of the Y. M. C. A. in Rome, Italy, and present director of the Foreign Fund came through Col lege Station several weeks ago and addressed some students at the Y. M. C. A. explaining the details and purpose of the organization. Song Festival To Feature Native Songs The religious and patriotic song festival, sponsored by the enter tainment committee of the Bryan and Brazos County Chamber of Commerce, will be presented Sun day night at 7:30 at Forest Field (Bryan High school football field). The program will consist of native songs to be presented by Bohemian, Italian, Mexican, Pol ish, and Negro groups; specialty groups, consisting of mixed choirs, the singing cadets, and a capella choir.
