box on the west side of the ro
tunda of the Academic Building
not later than noon today.
All new members must com
plete a one-week theory course in
the principles of pistol markman-
ship which will also begin at the
armory Monday. These classes will
be arranged from the schedules
which are turned in. A schedule of
the instruction periods will be
posted on the pistol team bulletin
board adjacent to the box in the
Academic Building. Elimination of
ne wmembers will begin Monday,
October 12.
Difficulty is expected in ar
ranging matches with other schools
since most schools do not begin
their pistol season until February.
Due to this drawback it is expect
ed that a large number of matches
will be fired by mail. Cook expects
that a number of shoulder-to-
shoulder matches will be fired with
pistol teams of the police forces
of San Antonio, Dallas, Austin,
Houston, and other Texas cities.
—HISTORY—
(Continued from Page 3)
Statistics for 1941-42 showed A.
& M. to have the largest intra--
mural program of any college in
the country.
A regular staff for the depart
ment was not organized until 1936
and before that time Penberthy
ran the program with only the aid
of part-time student assistants. At
the present time the saff of the
Intramural and P. E. departments
consists of five regular faculty
members and a large number of
students who have charge of the
various sports.

ed. Due to the strictness of this
rule an extra amount of time' is
being allowed for the oficerS to
submit their entry cards.
Freshmen, frogs, and others
taking Intramural for Phyiscal Ed
ucation credit must be registered
for P. E. 102, section 508, in order
to receive credit for their par
ticipation. Men who have not re
gistered in the prescribed manner
could do so at once through their
respective deans.
Scheduling for the current intra
mural session will begin as soon as
the entry cards are received and
it is expected that actual playing
will start early in the week begin
ning Monday, October 12.

Phillips, husky guard, looks good
in that line. . .Pappy goes on to
say that there are quite a number
of newcomers that are looking
good. . . From what I’ve observed
Center Jim Pressley, Guards Hans
Neumann and George Strohmeyer
have done rather well although the
moaning Pappy Wesson might dis
agree. . . Only a coach for two
weeks, Wesson is already acting
like a typical mentor—always pes
simistic. . .

to the police. The main thing that
is uncovered is that Mida was a
female Midas, she worshipped
money. Detective Van Heflin sug
gests crime be reenacted and the
unsuspected killer turns out to be—
Have fun guessing—we’re not
telling.
The Lowdown:—as usual, it’s the
least suspicious suspect.
“LADY IN A JAM” portrays
Irene Dunn in the part of the lady
with Patric Knowles and Ralph
Bellamy in supporting roles. It’s
a wacky, lunatickish show that ap
proaches absurdity. Unless you
can laugh the whole thing off as
just one of those things, you’ve
no business seeing this one.
Irene Dunn is an extravagant,
slightly “teched in the haid”,
heiress who is facing bankruptcy.
A psychiatrist, Patric Knowles, ad
vises her to go West to Arizona.
There she gets mixed up in a
phony gold mine and a phony cow
boy, Ralph Bellamy, and also falls
in love with her doctor. She finds
a new fortune when the land turns
out to be rich in quicksilver.
The Lowdown:—if you see this
one, don’t say we sent you!

ly doesn’t over-enjoy the movies,
for according to the survey, the
average number of shows attended
per student bn the annual basis
was 85.37, which simple arithmetic
breaks down to a weekly average
of 1.64 shows.
Club memberships hit a surpris
ingly new high, with the answers
looking like this: Boy Scouts, 57.-
09%; FFA, 47.01%; 4-H Club.
33.21%; YMCA, 30.97%. Natural
ly, these figures don’t add up to
100 because some boys belonged
to more than one club.
About that time, the radio blar
ed out and in determining the types
of programs the Ag boys like best,
another surprise jumped out of the
tabulating machine.
At the top of the list is dance
music with 77.24%; news follows
closely with 52.06%; comedy hit
third sliding with 34.13%; classical
music was fourth with 11.37%;
drama knocked down an even 10%;
and educational programs with
4.14% landed just above address
es, which took the cellar with but
0.69%. These figures also add up
to more than hundred, but the re
ports states that although an
eror was made in the first test,
at least the preference came in
the same order, regardless of the
per cent rated.
Life, Readers Digest, Colliers,
Saturday Evening Post, Time,
Newsweek, and technical maga
zines are enjoyed in the order
named.
In answer to the question: “Do
you think a man should marry when
he is certain that he will go into
the armed services?”, the Ag stu
dents said “NO” by a 72.44% vote.
64.86% of the boys believe just

now 23.^% said too much, and
11.59% said there was too little
given.
Visits to the library average
about 5 or 6 times per week, and
with 38.00% objecting to library
assignments, 62.00% said they
were okay.
In concluding, may I add, these
tests were made in the most ac
curate manner possible under the
circumstances and were consider
ed by the Accounting and Statis
tics department (under whom they
were conducted) and although they
have been “bulled” around here,
they are the straight stuff from
