He tried out for the bass spot the first years here, but because the band already had someone who seemed good enough, Curley didn’t make the grade. Then last year, 1941-42 Aggieland Maestro Topple Pierce needed a bass. Curley was there faster than Toppie could hit low C, and he filled the spot like it had never been filled before. When the 1942 season rolled around, and the Aggieland had to elect a new leader to replace Pierce, there just seemed no other choice than to make energetic Curley the boss—and so they did. The Aggieland orchestra is a cooperative band, with each member counting just as much as anyone else. Although its members are from all four classes on the Aggie campus, the leader is usual ly a senior, and is picked not only for his musical ability, but also for his talent in handling public ity, smiling at the ladies in front of the bandstand, and getting the best out of a business deal. Brient really fills the bill. Hard working, energetic, and progres sive, he is forever grateful for criticism and suggestions from his friends and followers about im proving the band, and he has a great big, sunny grin backed up by a shining disposition to help him on his way to success. When asked about leading a band as a profession, he said, “Sure, I want a band, but right now we are going to school learning to be officers in the United States Army. When the war is over, and our job is done, I hope to come back down here and organize me a band, and I hope when I do that I can get to gether as swell a bunch of fel lows as I have now.” —NEWTERM— (Continued from Page 1) his civilian clothes and will be in the uniform that they will wear for two years and eight months of intensive college and military study. Throughout the balance of the week college authorities will assist the new students in outlining courses of study, instruct them in use of library and other study facilities, and the military depart ment will start giving them the training that many entitle them to commissions in the army when they have completed their course of study. It is hoped the new indocrina- tion program will prevent the us ual number of scholastic deficienc ies, and will materially aid the new students in bridging the gap be tween high school and college life, stated the president’s assistant. ■THE BATTALION- The Wife Takes a Flyer Lovely Joan Bepnett is starred with Franchot Tone a the Campus Theatre beginning at the Saturday night preview and playing through Sunday and Monday in Columbia’s gay comedy, The Wife Takes a Flyer,” Fun-filled fable of an RAF ace who lands in occupied Holland, in danger, in Dutch and in love. “The Wife Takes a Flyer” features Allyn Joslyn, Cecil Cunningham and Roger Clark.

They can be obtained either at the ticket of fice or in the lobby, Charlie Tigner, manager of the theatre, explained.

In a letter to Jack Simmons, Quartermaster Corps, Isbell said the Aggies “beat the Germans that day fair and square, but the Germans are exceptionally good flyers.” He went on to say that he had never seen as many planes at one time as there were over the skies of Dieppe that day, and that the English people were “very nice”, especially j;o' the American soldiers, sailors, and marines. “I learned more in that one day of fighting than I ever learned in the Air Corps,” concluded Lt. Isbell. A&M Is All Out For Defense With Cows Working Overtime Contributing her part to nation al defense is a purebred Holstein sow owned by Texas A. & M. Col lege of College Station.
