at the Plantation Club in Dallas.
Those that heard Jan Savitt last
Friday night in Fort Worth are
still bleeding. It seems Savitt com
mitted the unforgiveable—he used
a pickup band for the job, com
posed of local musicians. Brother,
when a b^nd leader does that, he
is really sticking his neck out.
The music world is shocked to
hear that Ray Eberle isn’t sing
ing with G’. Miller any more. Mil
ler says it was “due to many acts
of misconduct on his part over an
extended period of time.” Frank
Sinatra is alsof quitting T. Dorsey
around early Fall. What’s wrong
with these vocalists ? They all seem
to be tempermental.
Thirty Second Notes
In answer to many questions
regarding the Aggieland’s fem vo
calist. . . . She is Miss Adie Bald
win of Houston, who besides sing
ing with the Aggieland has sung
with Eddie Fitzpatrick, Joe Sudy,
Herman Waldman, Peck Kelly and
others. . . .
Speaking of the Aggieland, in
compliance with the many requests
from over the state asking for the
September holidays, the band is
planning a tour to cover the state.
If your home town club would
like to have the orchestra that
week, I advise that you get in
touch with the band immediately,
as the transportation problem must
be worked out for your vicinity. . .
The death of Thomas F. Dorsey,
Sr., seventy, on July 12th, may
unite Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey.
They have just organized a song
publishing company together.
Last minute information finds
Ray Eberle singing with Gene
Krupa, and Skip Nelson replacing
Eberle in Miller’s band.

March trails Joan half way
around the world, tracking her
down as a murderess, and then
falls in love with her. He learns
her real identity and returns to
California and nabs the real mur
derer. Ann Sothern plays the part
of March’s secretary, in search of
half of the $100,000 reward offered
for the arrest of Joan.
This is a mystery in the lighter
vein, being filled with comedy and
romance. Skillfully produced and
acted, it has the added attraction
of a constantly changing back
ground consisting of all the remote
corners of the world.

marketing or agricultural economics and
who have passed the Junior Professional
Assistant’s civil service examination.
I also have a request from the Nelson
Rockefeller organization for some men
who have had rather extensive practical
experience in agriculture, especially in
the production and packing of fruits and
vegetables, and who can speak Spanish
fluently, to go into Central and South
America. These men will be expected to
direct practical agricultural operations.
Anyone interested in these positions
should call at my office or see Professor

Economics Department.—E. J. Kyle, Dean,

Texas Negroes
Start Production
n Farm Livestock
A total of 16,873 Texas Negro
farm families this year strted pro
duction in poultry and livestock for
the first time, according to Dr. E.
B. Evans of Prairie View, state
leader of Negro extension workers
in Texas.
Reports from 47 of the 51 coun
ties having Negro extension agents
show that 1,564 farm families ob
tained milk from cows for the first
time for production of milk for
home use. Milk production recently
has taken the lead in the all-out
war effort, especially among far
mers who have bought farm homes
through the Farm Security Ad
ministration, Dr. Evans says. They
are now marketing whole milk for
the first time.

al of 50 former college stars make
up Coach Wallace Wade’s West
All-Army team. . . Of that 22% or
a total of 11 players formerly car
ried the mail for the Aggies. . .
They are John Kimbrough, Bill
Conatser, Dennis Andricks, Jim
Thomason, Marion Pugh, Derace
Moser, Dog Dawson, Leonard Dick
ey, Joe Routt (we mentioned Chip
in our last column but a correction
has been made), Henry Hauser and
Marland Jeffery. . . The rest of the
team is fairly evenly divided as
far as colleges are concerned. . .
Duke and Vanderbilt each have
four players on the team, while
the rest of the colleges contribute
either one or two players. . . Al
together there are 27 colleges re
presented. . . Here’s how the squad
is divided—there are 18 backs, 10
ends, 10 tackles, 7 guards and 5
centers. . . Some of the more fam
ous backs besides the Aggies al
ready mentioned include Jimmy
Nelson, the Alabama lad who rock
ed the vaunted Cadets at the Cot
ton Bowl last year; Herman Ro-
hrig, Nebraska’s ace ball toter; Don
Scott, All-American mention from
Ohio State and Kay Eakin, Ar
kansas’ triple-threat halfback. . .
Other well-known football names
include Nick Drahos, Cornell tackle;
Hank Gude, Vanderbilt center;
Holt Rast, Alabama end and Bill
Annahu, Santa Clara wingman. . .
A little something out of the books,
but it concerns one of Aggieland’s
popular profs. . . Didja know that
Dr. Luther Jones of the Agronomy
Department was formerly the
wrestling champion of Princeton
and Cornell. . . It all happened dur
ing World War I days when Doc
was working for his degree. . .
He’s only a little mite—about 140
lbs.—but apparently plenty rough
—I mean physically. . . He’s also
a pretty good handball and tennis
player. . .

Lipscomb Downs Loupot
Liscomb’s Pharmacy, in the
meantime, took a one-game ad
vantage of Loupot’s when they de
feated the latter, 6-3, Thursday
evening. A five run rally, marked
by wildness and errors on the part
of Loupot’s proved to be the tonic
that handed Roland Bing’s boys
their defeat. They came back fight
ing in the latter stages of the tilt,
but all that proved in vain as pit
cher Andy Cokinos of the Phar
macy scattered five blows through
seven innings.
Scoring four runs in the sixth
inning of play, the Campus Clean
ers scored their other win over
Campus Theatre Thursday night
by the score of 6-3. Again, as last
night, the Theatre took a short
lived lead of 2-0 but pitcher Willie
Zalapac contacted a wild streak
and coupled with some ragged out
field playing on the part of the
losers, Campus Cleaners soon sow
ed up the game.
Play Today
Liscomb’s Pharmacy meets the
Loupot’s Traders in the second
game this evening with Walter
Shaw or Johnny Hejl on the mound
for the latter and Donald Puntch
the probable flinger for Kyle
Drake’s crew. Game time is 7
o’clock sharp.

will ask that everyone buying a
corsage buy a Victory Corsage.
They are composed entirely of war
stamps of small denomination, and
cost very little more than regular
corsages.
Because of metal shortages, and
the present price of jewelry of all
sorts, the dance committee has de
cided to replace the usual favors
and programs with a better, more
beautiful program. These programs
will serve as favors and will make
just as good a favor as metal ones
formerly purchased, says Swofford.
Sbisa hall will be used instead
of The Grove because of the in
creased privacy, and the ease of
decorating the dance floor without
having to worry about rain.
Huge crossed sabers, mirrored to
reflect a miriad of colored lights,
will hang from the ceiling, and
lighting will be restricted to color
ed lights strung around the edge of
the dance floor much like those at
the Junior Prom last year.
“Herbie Kay has one of the best
bands now touring the country,
and we think that the Cavalry
Regiment, by having Kay, will
have the best orchestra for their
ball and the corps dance following
of the entire social season,” Swof
ford said. Kay will probably play
a Town Hall program early in the
evening before the ball, and will
play for the Corps Dance the next
Saturday night.
—HISTORY—
(Continued From Page 1)
and a curriculum providing great
flexibility had been installed.
By the 1920’s a new era in
education had dawned, and Texas
A. & M. was at the helm. Colleges
and Universities all over the world
are now patterning their courses
and programs after the ideals set
forth by Senator Morrill, and stu
dents will learn something besides
earning their degrees by sitting in
classrooms.
A. & M. will turn out students
who have a place in the world,
who will be at home in all lands
and ages, and who will count the
wonders of nature a familiar friend
and art a familiar acquaintance.
Thus, that white-haired man, who
dared defy the conventions of a
conventional age, indirectly usher
ed in a golden age of learning—an
age lead by the Agricultural and
Mechanical Colleges of the United
States.
If a man makes a better mouse
trap in these times, he is made an
honorary Lieutenant in the Navy—
Austin American.
