remember her by. She overdoes
her part at times and seems a
bit hysterical, but after all, she’s
supposed to be a lady in love and
who wouldn’t be hysterical in that
condition ?
Opposite Miss Shearer are two
men to complete the triangle. Ro
bert Taylor, in a strictly romantic
role for a change, is her secretary
whom she hires - to keep herself
from running around with play
boy George Sanders too much.
Sanders had a part smaller than
his capabilities justify; the picture
wouldn’t have been hurt if his part
had been more prominent.
The Lowdown:—overdone ro
mance, but entertaining.
Second feature at the Campus is
“TWO LATINS FROM MANHAT
TAN”, a no-so-hot story of two
girls who take the place of two
Cuban entertainers. Joan Davis is
the night club press agen who gets
her two roomates, Jinx Falkenburg
and Joan Woodbury, into compli
cations as pseudo-Latin Americans.
Music in the show includes two
catch rhumbas and also “Daddy”.
The movie’s triteness and lack of
inspiration make if fall from the
ranks of the best of entertainers.
Even the musical numbers seem to
last too long for comfort.

Joint Procurement Committee Makes
Plans for Reserve Corps Enlistments
The Joint Army-Navy-Marine
Corps College Procurement Com
mittee has returned to Washington,
D. C., from a tour of the country,
in which it discussed with educa
tional authorities the plan of the
armed services to work in close co
operation with each other and with
the colleges to effect uniform pro
cedures for the enlistment of col
lege students in the reserves of the
Army, Navy and aMrine Corps.
The objective of the joint plan
is to channel into the armed ser
vices a continuous and regulated
stream of college-trained man
power.
Students who enroll in the enlist
ed reserves, are actually members
of the Army, Navy, or Marine
Corps. While they maintain an
inactive military status for the
time being, they are regarded by
the services as cooperating partri-
otically in the fulfillment of an
important phase of the over-all
war effort, for they are being
qualified to fill definite needs. Al
though it is not contemplated that
they be called to active duty un
til they have been qualified by
their college training, they are
subject to call at any time if the
exigencies of the war situation de
mand it. This is specifically ex
plained to them, as well as the fact
that any student in the enlisted
reserves is subject to call to active
duty as an enlisted man if he fails

a dangerous disease. From India
Great Britain is drawing quite a
large amount of war material in
the form of manufactured goods;
she is reliant ctn India as a Far
Eastern base for supplies and as
a supply route onto the contintent;
she is dependent on Indian ports
as vital naval bases for her Far
Eastern fleet. Readily we see that
the loss .of Indian cooperation by
only the slightest degree is the
last thought in England’s mind.
If India were cut loose tomorrow
there would immediately be a great
amount of readjustment, juggling,
and adopting of ideas in relation
to everything under the sun. It
would be infinitely worse than the
disruption we’ve witnessed by the
change of parties in national pal-
itics in our own early history. In
short, Great Britain with all she’s
got at stake can. not possibly al
low such a move as Gandhi pro
poses. She stands to lose too much.
When Gandhi began to flirt with
Japan, he piled the last straw on
the camel’s back. Today he’s in
jail due to the riots and tumul
tuous acting of his millions of fol
lowers.
It’s only right and the only safe
thing that Great Britain should
fail to let this unjudicious plot
gain momentum.
to graduate with his class or to
meet the standards set by the re
spective services for officer mater
ial.
It was emphasized that the Joint
Procurement Committee was set up
to obtain a definite number of
men each year possessing the ne
cessary qualifications for specific
military and naval duties, and
therefore the plan goes only as far
the actual needs of the services
demand. Futhermore, the needs of
war industries for men with cer
tain types of training must be tak
en into consideration.
Implementing furthur the co
operation of the Army and the
Navy in the recruiting of reserve
manpower at colleges, arrange
ments have been made for the es
tablishment of nine joint Army-
Navy-Marine Corps Boards, which
will visit all accredited colleges.
The districts covered by those
Boards correspond to the area of
the nine Army Service Commands.
While the Naval Districts do not
correspond with these, the Navy
and Marine Corps have designated
officers to work with the Service
Commands. Each hoard will con
sist of five officers, one represent-

Flanagan, the two high school
stars of the North-South classic,
along with nine other gridsters in
that particular game have desig
nated their intentions to enroll at
A. & M. next fall. . . In fact all
of the boys have already reserved
their rooms here and are ready for
a session’s football grind. . . In

the Aggie polo team inherits quite
a malletman in the person of White
who did quite a bit of playing
while at Lamesa. . .So, the athletic
office killed two birds with one
stone when they signed up Mr.
White. . . Flanagan was around
here last spring in the company of
Lil Dimmitt and the genial and
popular Aggie baseball coach had
the Sweetwater youth just “crazy”
about the college. . . And from Lil’s
stuttering words one could make
out that it won’t be long before
