Employs Garth To

Walter Garth, Jr., of Sanford,
Maine, has been employed by the
Texas Extension Service, effec
tive August 1, to supervise mohair
grading in Texas during the fall
season, Director H. H. William
son announces. Garth was asso
ciated with the Texas Mohair grad
ing committee during the fall and
spring seasons of 1940-41 in de
veloping proper grades and methods
of grading. The committee is com
posed of mohair producers and
warehousemen.
W. R. Nisbet, Extension Service

the purpose to develop in the
early fall season a definition of
the standards by which mohair is
to be graded. Garth will help de
fine the grades and after these
have been accepted by growers,
warehousemen, dealers and mills,
efforts will be made to have them
established as standard grades for
the United States.

Opposite East Gate
From The Texas Aggie
Tyree L. Bell, ’13, chosen pres
ident of the Association of Former
Students at its commencement
meeting, is one of the Southwest’s
best known and most successful
engineers. That is the way he is
known to the business and profes
sional men of the Southwest.
To A. & M. men he is all that
and more. He is a football im
mortal—one of the two men in A.
& M. athletic history to captain
two different A. & M. football
teams, and still rated as one of
the finest captains who ever led
an Aggie eleven into battle. More
important, he is regarded as an
outstanding example of the finest
type of A. & M. man in his loyalty,
interest, and work for his college.
Election of Bell as president of
the Ex-Students’ Association was
a natural step for a man who since
gradaution has loyally and ca
pably served in many College and
ex-student capacities. He has been
previously vice president of the As
sociation and is a past president
and active member of the Dallas
A. & M. Club.
He has served as ex-student rep-
hesentative on the Athletic Council.
Those were official positions. Dur
ing the past 30 years he has served
unofficially in many more and
equally important capacities.
Coming to A. & M. from Dallas,
Bell played halfback on the Aggie
football teams of 1910, 1911, 1912,
and 1914. He captained the teams
of both 1912 and 1914. Following
his graduation in civil engineering
he went to work with the Missis
sippi River Commission at Vicks
burg, Mississippi.
World War No. 1 called him from
this work, and he achieved a bril
liant record in that war. He was
first lieutenant and captain of the
312th Engineers overseas. He
emerged from the war as a major
in the Corps of Engineers. He
served as an instructor at Fort
Oglethorpe, Georgia, Officers’
Training Camp. Overseas his last
assignment was camp engineer of
the Bordeaux Embarkment Camp,
Bordeaux, France. He was in
France during 1918-19.
Following the war he was made
district manager of the Lakewood
Engineering Company, dealing in
general contracting equipment. In
1922, he became associated with F.
P. McElwrath, at Corsicana, in the
contracting business and in 1934,
he formed and was made vice pres
ident and general manager of the
Austin Road Company at Dallas.
He continues in that capacity. He
is a director of the Texas Power
& Light Company.
It is a safe bet that Texas motor
ists can hardly cover 100 miles

AGENT IN EVERY HALL
without riding over some roadway
that has been built under the direc
tion of Tyree L. Bell. A. man of tre
mendous energy, he finds time
from his busy work to participate
actively in A. & M. activities and
to achieve some fame as both a
fisherman and a hunter.
Mr. and Mrs. Bell and their
daughter live at 6968 Tokalon Drive
in Dallas.
Head of A & M
Poultry Department
Obtains Honor Degree
D. H. Reid, head of the poultry
husbandry department of A. & M.,
was elected “Fellow,” an honorary
degree award for distinguished
service, by the American Poultry
Science Association in its annual
meeting held recently at Oklahoma
A. & M. College, Stillwater, Okla.
Advance Orders For
Football Tickets Will
Put Big Dent in Stock
Ticket reservations for the Tex
as Aggie football games continue
to move along at a good speed, or
at least the flood of advance or
ders indicate that Sept. 1 will see
a big dent made in the stock of
pasteboards, E. W. Hooker, Aggie
ticket manager, said this week.
All advance orders From former
students have been filled but the
orders for John General Public
will not go out until Sept. 1, Hook
er explained. However, the former
student sales did leave some desir
able tickets for all games but it
is likely that the general public sale
will take all seats on the side lines
and part way into the end zone.
Largest demand is for Texas—
Texas A. & M.' game tickets so
Hooker has gone ahead and had
general admission tickets printed
for the temporary seats which will
be erected in the south or open
end of the stadium. This will make
possible an attendance of 38,383
for that game which will be played
on Thursday, Nov. 27, this year.
Other large demand is for the
S. M. U. game on Nov. 8 which will
see the co-champions of the past
season in action. The Baylor game
booked for Oct. 25 is also selling
well.

for a man his build, and is a deadly
tackier and fine blocker.
Luethy is another sophomore
that will be hard to keep out of
action this year, and his coaches
predict great things for him before
he closes his grid career. Don is
as rugged as they come and likes
hard and tough football.
Other Stars
These are only a few examples
of. the on-coming sophomore stars.
Norton has enough sophomore
stars to make a full team—one
which could give any team in the
conference a mighty hard tussle.
Besides those mentioned, there are
Bill Andrews and Bob Williams,
backs, and A. J. Mercer, hustling
center, who may prove to be hefty
substitutes and even starters before
the season is over.
The average age of cadets in
A. & M. in 1903 was 18 years.
