Since the postponement of the effect
ive date for gasoline rationing makes
transportation more readily available dur

has extended the Thanksgiving holidays
to include the period from 6 p.m. Wednes
day, November 25, to 6 p.m. Sunday,
November 29. The time missed is to be
made up by holding classes, which are
to consist primarily of written tests and
quizzes, on three Saturday afternoons.
The schedule will be as follows:
November 21—Friday morning schedule
December 5—Friday afternoon schedule
December 12—Saturday morning schedule

Forfeits are still taking their
toll in the ranks of teams entered
in Aggie intramurals. Acording to
Dewey Hoke, intramural depart
ment statistician, a total of 14
teams had been eliminated from
their leagues because of excess for
feits. As the intramural season
nears the halfway mark, nearly
one-third of the teams have been
disqualified on account of forfeits.
These teams which have been dis

Women Will Study for
Just & Lasting Peace
While they work to help win the
war, Texas’ 46,000 home demon
stration club womn will study the
Atlantic Charter to prepare for a
just and lasting peace. This war
time study program was adopted
by nearly 500 delegates attending
a recent meeting of the Texas
Home Demonstration Association
j in Ft. Worth.
The Association also gave con
siderable attention to nutrition,
j Mmbers will make eating by the
Texas Food Standard “a patriotic
duty” in war-time and will dem
onstrate for families the benefits
of better nutrition.
To promote maximum coopera
tion in the war program, the As
sociation is asking all its members
and their families to live by the
Victory Demonstrator’s pledge.

thrbat in that Aggie backfield.
There’s Lightnin’ Leo Daniels, the
top passer of the conference who
is expected to shower the air with
footballs this afternoon. Cullen
(Slick) Rogers, the leading pass
recepter in the nation as well as
the conference and the top Cadet
scorer is another lad the Owls
will have to keep their eye peeled
for if they hope to get anywhere
against the sudden-hitting Maroon
attack. ,
And for defensive and extra
ordinary blocking ability, there’s
fiery Willie Zapalac who definitely
has proven to be a main standout
of the Aggie team. The big Bel-
ville blocker time and again has
paved the path to the promised
land and, today Coach Homer Nor
ton places much hope on his ability
to clear the way. He will be the
co-captain of the game today along
with end Bill Henderson.
In that hard-hitting Cadet for
ward wall, Norton places his hopes
on Felix Bucek, one of the stand
out guards of the conference; Bill
Henderson, phenomenal pass-snag
ging wingman; and Bill Sibley,
center, to pave the way to victory.
The rest of the line will include
Elvis (Boots) Simmd)ns at the
other terminal; Wayne Cure and
Henry Foldberg at tackles; and
Ray Mulhollan at the other guard
post.
For the Owls, it’ll be Don Steph
ens and Virgil (Ike) Eikenberg
who are expected to give the
feathered flock that needed spark.
Stephens is the power runner on
the team while Eikenberg handles
the passing chores.
Rice will go into this fray
slightly favored to win, but the
Ags, smarting under a two-game
conference defeat, will be shooting
the works in an effort ot redeem
their former prestige to its high
rating. A win over the Owls un
doubtedly would add much pres
tige to the Cadets.
And so it is today that the
Maroon and White wearers of Ag
gieland climax their brilliant come
back trail. Victory naturally is the
main objective but whether win,
lose or draw this game should
prove to be the top thriller of the
Southwest Conference this year!
It’s a natural.
Turkey Growers
Urged to Select
Future Breeders
“It is only by selecting breeders
now,” says Geo. P. McCarthy, poul-
tryman for the Extension Service.
that we can maintain the
improvement which has been
pronounced during the
past five or six years.
Texas turkey growers should
select breeders for next year be
fore all of their better birds have
been sold.
Turkey hens which are showing
heavy fleshing, especially across
the breast and thighs, and have
developed fat and feathered out
well, including pin feathers, should
be kept back as breeders, McCarthy
explains. Producers should also be
giving serious thought to buying
Army Air Forces
Graduate New Class
An undisclosed number of fight
er and bomber pilots today are be
ing awarded the silver wings of
full fledged army airmen at seven
schools in the Gulf Coast Army Air
Forces Training Center, headquar
ters at Randolph Field.
“Another group of the finest air
fighters in the world,” commented
Major General H. R. Harmon,
training' center commander, on
graduation eve.
The group includes 35 former
students of A. & M.
One of the members of the cur
rent class is Richard S. Whitelaw,
of Saugus, California. He was with
the Marines at Pearl Harbor on
December 7. Today, less than a
year later, he is ready to avenge
the aerial thrust at the island out
post.
Fighter pilots, many of whom
will soon be participating in the
mounting aerial offensive over Eu
rope, win their wings at three ad
vanced fighter pilot schools—Fos
ter Field, Texas, Moore Field, Tex
as, and Lake Charles, La.

beacons from the air. ,His radio
reports were received both in the
plotting room and at the obser
vation point on the dome of Old
Main.
Within six minutes the city was
completely blacked out, and from
the Battalion observer’s point of
vantage no speck of light could be
seen. *
Meanwhile members of the
WTAW staff were carrying a port
able microphone from person to
person and recording every phase
of the new experience which the
community was undergoing, and
picking up side lights of human
interest value.
When it appeared that total
darkness had been achieved, the
telephone operator was instructed
to “sound the all clear.” Within
a few seconds three sharp blasts
of the whistle told local citizens^
that they might once more light up
their homes and enjoy the priv
ilege of being American citizens
far from the tortures and un
pleasantries of the rest of the
war-torn world.

supply of good quality toms in
Texas, especially in the broad-
breast bronze strain, which may be
bought from R. 0. P. breeders.
Growers buying hens or toms
should see that they are pullorum-

point. . Levermann attempted the
conversion, but it was wide. The
Slimes drove deep into Fish terri
tory several times during the af
ternoon, but lacked the necessary
scoring punch to penetrate (he
stout fish defense.
With only three minutes left to
play in the first half, Gus White
intercepted a Slime pass on his
own 30 yard line, and raced back
to the Slime 32 before being knock
ed out of bounds. On the next
play, Haltom flipped a five yard
pass to White who carried it all
the way to the Slime one yard
line before he was downed. The
Fish were penalized 5 yards for
too many time outs at this point.
With time for only one play re
maining, Haltom raced around his
own left end behind excellent
blocking to score.
The third quarter found the
Slimes driving into Fish territory
most of the time, but the needed
punch was lacking. At one time
they reached the 17 yard line, but
the Fish halted the drive and took
over on downs on the 20. Another
drive carried to the four yard line
where a field goal attempt was
wide. George Strohmeyer stood out
for the Fish on defense.
With three minutes remaining
in the game, and the score standing
6 to 6 the Fish had the ball on
their own 12 yard line. Haltom
dropped back and fired a long
pass to Marion Flanagan who
gathered in the pigskin on the Rice
44 yard line and raced down to the
Slime 25 before being pulled down.
Haltom drove through tackle for
seven yards, and on the next play
fired a pass to White in the end
zone for a score. Strohmeyer’s
conversion was good.

Harvard students as “the actress
least likely to succeed.” The Aggie
Cadet Corps promptly contended
that Miss Sheridan had been gross
ly insulted and stated they would
defend her honor in any arena—
football, rifle shooting, or what
have you.
The stand taken by the Aggies
attracted nation-wide attention
In appreciation for Cadet opinion,
Miss Sheridan wired for anyone
concerned to look for her in the
Aggie rooting section in the A. &
M.— U. C. L. A. football game in
the fall of 1940.
Each of the five members of the
Aggie rifle team which shot against
the TSCW rifle team asked
Miss Sheridan for a photo
graph. She replied prompt
ly and one of Cook’s prize possess
ions is an 11 by 14 inch photo of
Ann Sheridap with this inscription:
“From one Texan to another, very
best wishes to R. T. Cook, Ann
Sheridan.”
Cook is a major on the corps
staff and is an excellent student.
He was instrumental in the organi
zations of the Puerto Rico A. & M.
Club when he came to A. & M. He
was club secretary in 1941-42 and
is now president.
Any of you Aggies who are in
terested in improving your marks

skinned Japrats or the Heiling
Huns would profit with a lesson
