Students who do not ordinator of can Affairs H. L. HEATON, Registrar The National Institute of Public Af fairs announces the availability of fifty “internships” for the study of the fed eral government. The appointments, which are open to seniors and graduate students, contemplate several months of resident study in Washington. The intern, after an orientation period of about one month, is placed in a Fed eral Office on a full-time non-salaried basis to study government operations and carry out practical assignments under the supervision of a competent official. The informal study includes round table discussions with administrators, legislat ors, press correspondents, etc. Seminars and courses in economics, government, public administration, and sociology are available to interns after hours at the American and George Washington Uni versities and the Graduate School of the U. S. Department of Agriculture without tuition. Applications will be received until Jan uary 6, 1943, for the periods March 1 to September 30, 1943 and July 1, 1943, to January 31, 1944. Appointments pro vide training without cost, but do not provide personal expenses. The General Education Board provides the Institute funds from which grants-in-aid may be made to internship appointees who are graduates of Southern institutions.

Bolton, Dean. —THREE AGS— (Continued From Page 3) fame through rough-tough tactics. However, from the reports of other games, Humble has played excep tional ball and thus gets the call over Rasor on that basis. Bubbo Barnett of Baylor and Jack Free man of Texas also come in for quite a bit of consideration. As for the pivot post, I don’t see how anyone can leave off Baylor’s Buddy Gatewood. I saw him play twice, against A&M and Rice, and on each occasion he proved easily to be the standout player, both offensively and defensively on the field. The sports experts try to compare him with Bill Blackburn, Rice’s center, but I don’t see where there is any resemblance. The Ag- gies'’s Dub Sibley finished fast and was right on the heels of both of those stars but I don’t believe you can base a mythical selection on only four games. McKay Top Back Now for the backs. It was very easy to select the top back in the conference. Undoubtedly that was Roy McKay. Certainly it has been his playing that led Texas to a championship and generally spark ed Coach Dana X. Bible’s fine team. McKay was a triple-threat and easily took top honors among the backfield aces. Another back that is hard to leave out is Rice’s Dick Dwelle. Now, there is one of the hardest hitting backs in the loop. His play ing contributed to Rice’s quick about-face in salvaging their final games with such power and ease. He was the passer, runner and sig nal caller and he did it in magnifi cent style. Galaxy of Other Backs Naming those two backs was easy enough but when it came to selecting the other two, then the puzzle began. There were many other backs deserving of all-con ference selection. First, there was Leo Daniels of A&M and Frito Gonzales of SMU who easily were the standout passers in the league. Then there was Cullen Rogers of A&M, and Hardy Miller of SMU, two of the finest receivers in the loop. And the phenomenal blockers, Willie Zapalac of the Aggies and Spot Collins of Texas. And broken field runner de-luxe in Jackie Field of Texas, Kit Kittrell of Baylor and Barney Welch of A&M. However, after due deliberation, I chose Cullen Rogers and Jackie Field, two of the finest players in the league. Cul was the leader of the A&M team and the top pass- receiver in the nation while Jackie easily stood out with his hard- driving zeal that led him to be the leading conference scorer. -THE BATTALION -THURSDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 10, 1942 Don’t Worry About Your WAAC’s Warmth; She Has Gl Bloomers If any of you Aggies have any girl-friends in the WAACs, then don’t worry about her being stylish or warm this winter. What was good enough for Grandma is evidently good enough for a WAAC, because their govern mental issue clothes include not only khaki colored panties with quarter-length legs, but a pair of good old-fashioned baggy bloomers! —INTRAMURALS— (Continued From Page 3) D. Smith accounted for five points for the Field team. T. F. Morgan came through with five points for the Infantrymen. Class A football saw D Engineers take E Infantry by a 15-6 score. Two touchdowns, a point-after touchdown, and a safety accounted for the Engineer tally. D Cavalry and M Infantry fought to a 0-0 deadlock. Neither team was able to cross the other’s 20-yard stripe. D Cavalry, however, took the game on 40-yard line penetrations. They had three 40-yard crosses to one for the Infantry team. Another scoreless tie was the result of the game between 8th Corps Headquarters and Headquar ters Signal Corps. Two 20-yard penetrations by the Corps Head quarters team earned the decision for them. B Ordnance took F In fantry by a score of 6-0. The results of other Class A foot ball were: K Infantry over G Field Artillery, 13-7; C Chemical War fare defeated E Replacement Cen ter by a score of 18-0; Machine Gun Cavalry beat D Coast Artillery with a 14-0 score; and A Signal Corps took Headquarters Cavalry 7-0. In a lone Class A basketball match I Infantry defeated 7th Corps Headquarters with an 11-6 score. Terry led the Infantry team with five points.

However, this year because of changes in the school schedule, the juniors did not have a chance to show their abilities.

Where does a nudist carry his handkerchief ? —1925 BATT— (Continued From Page 1) 150,000 watt loud speaker begged the fifty thousand cadets to stay behind the team even though things were looking bad. Meanwhile, on field one the Texas team had taken the Aggie kick-off and was on our ten. Here indeed, was a spot for a fight First down ten, Texas’ ball, Pink- panties back! There’s the snap— he’s fading! He’s fading !He’s still fading! And down he goes! Pink- panties is downed by nine Aggie huskies on the Texas 2 yard line! There seems to be a question on the play, however. There’s the referees’ signal—a Texas man was caught changing the wave length of his receiver over to the Aggies band. Five yards penalty, and the ball goes over to the Aggies. Another touchdown for the Aggies. From then on the Texas team buckled down and the games stayed in the middle of the field, neither team being able to get the advantage. And so, the great day ended, Texas A. & M. winning over Texas university 12-0, 6-0, 6-0. When the sun went down across the tracks, many a weary head was laid to rest, and many a weary heart rejoiced again in the unfail ing, never ending supremacy of Aggieland. —HOLMAN— (Continued From Page 1) Ballot boxes will be placed in the rotunda of the Academic building and the September maintenance re ceipt must be presented and stamp ed to get the ballot. Juniors only will vote at one box on Longhorn editor and Social Secretary.
