Adjutant SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT OF NEW ELECTIVE COURSE Many students who do not plan to work in technical agriculture have ex pressed a desire to learn something of the SOIL and its importance to our welfare. There is also a need for some useful, but small and non-technical course, to fill blanks in schedules too small for techni cal and laboratory courses. Hoping to fill both these needs, the Curriculum Committee of the School of Agriculture has recently authorized: Agronomy 328: General Soils, (2-0) 2 credits. Tuesday and Thursday at 11—No prere quisites. The course is designed for students maj oring in Engineering, Arts and Sciences, Veterinary Medicine and also for those students in the School of Agriculture who do not now have a required soils course in their curriculum. The course will deal in a popular man ner with man’s treatment of soils as a universal and irreplaceable natural re source. It will explain how the soil is used by man, how it is classified and modified by man and how the soil in fluences man’s geographic environment, food supply and habits of life. The text used was written last year by Dr. Charles E. Kellogg, Principal Soil Scientist, in charge of the Division of Soil Survey in the U. S. Department of Agri culture. —BACKWASH— (Continued From Page 2) air ride in connection with photo graphy for Civilian Defense . . . a fish who wanted to see his soph omore brother get some culture bought two Town Hall tickets . . . incidentally, sales of Town Hall tickets have reached 1230 to ex ceed expectations . . . and another fish gave out at the table with “Shoot the bull meat” . . . Have Your Eyes Examined Lense Duplicated Dr. John S. CaldweU Bryan, Texas THURSDAY MORNING, JUNE 4, 1942 —CAMPUS— THE BATTALION — PENBERTHY — (Continued From Page 3) students in school, there were 1,174 different individuals who partici pated in intramurals with a total participation of 2,201. In 1940-41 with a total of 6,842 students, there were 4,278 different individuals participating with a total partici pation of 19,577. It may be seen that the intramural program has grown much more rapidly than the college enrollment. Back in the early days of the in tramural department “Penney” had to run the program with aid of only part-time student assistants as present regular staff was not organized until about 1936. Penberthy will not allow him self to take all the credit for the success of A. & M.’s physical train ing programs. He lays the credit for the extremely successful pro gram to his assistants “Spike” White, Dewey Hoke, Art Adam son, Nickey Ponthieux, Carl Tisch- ler, Luke Harrison and Col. “Andy” Anderson. Incidentally, the two latter men are now on leave of absence as they are serving with the armed forces. He also has much praise for the student departmental assist ants and the recreational officers within the organization and says he has the best staff in the world. “The intramural program in itself would not have been a success without the whole-hearted cooper ation of the student participants,” says Penberthy. “Penney” finds that the pleasure of his job is in working with the boys and watching them in keen, strong competition. “I may have to be some place else someday but I just can’t im agine myself being anywhere ex cept in Aggieland,” chuckled “Pen ney” fondly. Here’s to “Penney”— a grand guy—may he be at A. & M. as long as he wishes and may that be forever!

These hours count on your academic record. During the past school year the Singing Cadets took three major trips. These included a trip to Houston, a two-day trip to Beau mont and other cities on the route of travel, and a final three-day tour to Dallas, Fort Worth, Den ton and other cities. In addition the club sang at several banquets, a Town Hall program, the Par ents’ Day exercises and other acti vities on the campus and in Bryan. The final week of last semester the Singing Cadets went on a gala picnic, at which new officers were elected. Officers elected were as follows: president. Tommy Collins; vice- president, Marion Lyle; business nfanager, Bernay Martin; publicity manager, Edwin Kingery; libra rian, James Hill. Activities contemplated for the present semester consist of a num ber of campus programs and social events with the matter of a trip an uncertainty because of present transportation problems. There is the possibility of a summer trip being arranged. See Richard Jen kins about joining the Singing Ca dets, or ask any old member.
