So there you have it. Unless the
war gets too’ severe and many are
called into service immediately,
prospects for another Aggie dom
inating Southwest Conference sea
son is very very on the up and
up, especially in football and track.

Bucek brothers.”
“Why,” said Uncle Bill, “they
work as if they were preparing
for a Rose Bowl game every day.”
Felix is Threat
The Bucek brother act may have
been broken by the graduation of
Roy, but Felix will still be there
and according to Coach Homer
Norton is a definite threat for one
of the guard posts. If there is any
kind of honor to be taken down
by any Aggie athlete you are al
most sure to see the name Bucek
close by.
Treasury Dept.
Quota Reached
Sales of War Bonds in Brazos
County from May 1941 down to
and including April 1942 total
$810,402.50 a statement from
Judge A. S. Ware, Brazos County
chairman of United States War
Bonds Sales, says.
He further states that in order
to avoid a compulsory purchase
program, it is going to be neces
sary that sales over the country
equal the quotas assigned by the
Treasury Department. Brazos
County has so far met its quotas
with some overrun, but in order to
continue meeting the quotas as
signed, it will be necessary that
activities be increased so as to
maintain sales at a high point
during the summer months.

Skiles.
He received his Bachelor’s de
gree from N. T. S. T. C. where
he later completed a Masters. He
attended Texas University Law
School until he was admitted to
the State Bar Association.
During his college career he
served as editor of the college
paper, as editor of the college
yearbook and as manager of col
lege publications. Students holding
similar jobs here were under his
supervision.
Following several months service
in the unexpired term of a mem
ber of the legislature, Skiles was
later elected to the seat perman
ently. He served for three regular
sessions, holding a place on the
appropriations committee and the
committee on higher education.

New sights at Aggieland are the above scenes a s the Navy established training schools on the cam

Khaki on Campus as College Trains Seamen
Not only is A. & M. training
men for the army, but during the
war a large number of enlisted
personnel from the navy and the
marine corps are stationed at the
college for technical training in
certain branches of electrical work.
—DANCE FLOOR—
(Continued from page 1)
other occasions.
Social Secretary EoDby Stephens
has announced that the floor will
probably be finished soon after
school starts. Stephens also an
nounced that “name” orchestras
will be brought in for as many
dances this summer as possible,
and it is hoped that summer or
ganization dances will be held much
on the order of the formal or
ganization balls held during the
regular long session.
In addition to dances and other
activities which will be held on
the newly constructed slab, Rich
ard Jenkins, director of the Sing
ing Cadets, has announced that
Saturday night Kadet Kapers will
continue through the summer
months. The place has not been
announced as yet, but Jenkins
states that weather permitting, in
all probability Kadet Kapers will
be held out-of-doors.
When the first contingent of
sailors arrived, they were greeted
by special articles and editorials in
The Battalion, by a great number
of Aggies at the train, and by a
special review of the corps the
afternoon of their arrival. Since
that time other contingents have
arrived and many marines just out
of Boot School have been sent here
for additional training.
When the Aggies are taking
their morning calesthenics, the
sailors are eating breakfast, and
by the time the Aggies get to the
mess hall for their morning meal,
the sailors have already started
their school day. Although their
training is vigorous and must be
completed in a short time, the
navy is taking measures to pro
vide the sailors with ample recrea
tion and exercise to keep their
morale high and to prevent them
from getting physically soft dur
ing their stay on land.
The Intramural department has
turned over several of the baseball
diamonds to the navy, and in the
afternoons the sailors can be seen
drilling or playing baseball. The
marines have a similar recrea
tional program to keep them in
shape.
Aggies, sailors and marines have
become good friends realizing that

At the Cotton Ball last semester
many white sailor uniforms could
be seen on the dance floor.
United in the common cause of
defeating the Axis powers, the
Aggies have welcomed men of the
fighting services other than the
army, and the sailors and marines
have reciprocated by trying to be
come good Aggies and understand
and like A. & M.
