....Congenial Bill Davis, sports
writer for the Baylor Lariat, felt
very proud of himself on Friday
the day before the Bear-Texas
fracas when he went on to call
this writer all kinds of names for
referring to his beloved Bruins as
a “lucky” team and contending that
luck would run out against Texas
it was a pretty nifty speech, Mr.
Davis, but decidedly in vain, don’t
you think so now? ... I’m sure Billy
feels apologetic after his blast and
we graciously accept that apology ...
I’m also sure most Aggies agree
that we were lucky to win the title
last year and I have yet to hear
anyone deny that fact but Davis
thinks otherwise and declares we
were bragging continually As
for Baylor being lucky in their
games against TCU and A. & M.
the Texas game only went on fur
ther to prove that fact.... And I
further contend that they will be
lucky as “hell’ if they can win the
rest of their games For a while
it seemed as if their luck would
hold out and go on to win ’ the
champoinship which, undoubtedly
would give this ocnference the

Word comes from Randolph Field

most of you remember, Sam was
the center of a “Twelfth man”
plea by Coach Homer Norton last
year....he became ineligible at the
start of the season, leaving the
Cadets but three centrs, all of
whom were unproven. This caused
Norton to turn to the corps for a
pivot man but Dub Sibley came
through in fine fashion so the
coachs’ plea was withdrawn
Preston Foster, Patricia Morison and Albert Dekker are featured
in “Night in New Orleans,” showing at the Campus Theatre today

Aggie Pickins is fast becoming one
of the largest recording shoAs in
the Southwest. Extremely unique
and styled to fit the trend of the
Aggies and their favorite musical
selections. Pickins takes a cross
section of Aggie opinion and pre
sents this opinion musically. A box
is installed on the bullentin board
of the Academic Building and if
you are interested in winning a
pass to the Campus Theater just
drop in your choice of the three
top tunes of the campus. Who
knows, you might win next Week.
It’s easy. For instance, last week
the top tune on the campus was
White Christmas with Praise the
Lord, ect, and Serenade in Blue
coming in for their share of the
honors.
RECORD OF THE WEEK: “There

Next week this corner is going
to offer something a little differ
ent with a revue of Harry James
and his orchestra who are now
appearing at the Hotel Lincoln in
New York. To tell you the truth
this column will be submitted in a
contest for the best column written
on Harry James and his style. The
winner,, which will be taken from
one of the college papers over
the country, will receive a com

with transportation, deluxe accom
modations and meals, and enter

Teaching Modern
War Requires More
Highly Trained Men
Evidence that it takes university
trained men to teach the science
of modern war is found in Uncle
Sam’s newest war college at San
Angelo Bombardier School. With
only a small proportion of its fu
ture officer personnel reported in
for duty,- there are nevertheless
over eighty degrees represented in
its teaching and administrative
staff.
There are five instructors with
degrees of Ph.D. and an equal num
ber with the degree of M.A. At
least one has a diploma from Sor-
bonne University in Paris.
There are several Bachelors of
Laws and Masters of Science. The
balance are about evenly divided
between Bachelor of Arts and
Bachelor of Science.
Lt. Colonel Harry Crutcher, Jr.,
Director of Training at the bom
bardier school, pointed out yester
day that the job of teaching the
deadly art of the air forces bom
bardier calls for much the same
qualities required in teaching any
exact science.
“An appreciation of the pupil’s
point of view, a thorough knowl
edge of the subject and an under
standing of teaching technique^are
the basic requirements here, as in
any college,” he said.
“There is a major difference,
however. The students here—cadets
—undergo the most intensive
course of study ever scheduled.
They don’t coast along for a week
or two and then cram just before
an examination. They cram every
day—Sundays and holidays includ
ed—for thirteen weeks. Our in-
structprs, who are comparable to
college professors, must know how
to pour out the maximum informa
tion that a group of students can
absorb, without ever exceeding
that, maximum.” ■

Aero Department
Receives Notice
Of Credit by ECPD
Gibb Gilchrist, dean of the School
of Engineering, has received no
tice that the curricula of the de
partment of aeronautical engineer
ing has been accredited by the En
gineers Council for Professional
Development and now is one of the
14 such accredited departments in
the United States.
The department now ranks as
the largest in the country with 726
of the 3478 students now in the
School of Engineering enrolled in
aeronautical engineering under Dr.
Howard Barlow. During the semes
ter of June 1-Sept. 19, a total of
525 took the course,
Dr. Barlow’s department of
aeronautical engineering now is the
only one accredited by the E.C.P.D.
in the Southwest and is one of the
three in the South, Georgia Tech
and University of Alabama being
the only other two south of the
Mason-Dixon line.
Others which have accredited de
partments of aeronautical engi
neering include: Notre Dame, Cali
fornia Tech, Catholic University of
America, University of Cincinnati,
University of Detroit, Massachu
setts Institute of Technology, Uni
versity of Michigan, University of
Minnesota, New York University,
University of Washington and
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
Major Hervey H. Whitfield, of
Dallas, has been decorated twice.
He won a Distinguished Flying
Cross and then an Oak Leaf Clus
ter, signifying a second medal, for
his action in the Australian theater
of war.
Highest medal won by any Tex
as Aggie was the Distinguished
Service Cross awarded to Major
General George F. Moore, com
mander of Corregidor, who re
ceived the medal before the fortress
surrendered. Only 24 such medals
and two OaR Leaf Clusters have
been awarded so far the report
shows.
Aggies, so far-as is known, have
collected 11 Distinguished Flying
Crosses; 1 D.F.C. Oak Leaf Clus
ter; 1 Navy Flying Cross; 5 Silver
Stars; 2 Soldier’s Medals; and sev
eral Orders of the Purple Heart
and many citations from their com
manding headquarters.
Latest estimates show that over
6500 former students at the col
lege now are on active duty and'
on all fronts in the army, navy and
marine corps and that a total of
15 now rank as generals.
