pus.
Plans are not far enough along
to tell number of floors, the shape
of the building, or even the loca
tion; final plans for the giant proj
ect will be determined by the
Board of Directors of the college,
and its completion may be far in
the future. With the ownership of
the $50,000 war bond in the hands
of the A. & M. College, the Stu
dent Activities Center is now
more than just a golden dream,
states E. E. McQuillen, secretary
of the association.
Every A. & M. man is a member
of the Association of Former Stu
dents, and in place of annual dues,
each member is asked to make an
annual gift of any amount to the
Development Fund. An annual
honor roll fund report will list the
name of every donor, but not the
amount of his gift, and every
donor will receive the Texas Aggie,
newspaper publication published by
the Association of Former Stu
dents. Each year at commence
ment A. & M. men will present a
gift to the college through the
Development Fund.
To sum up the Student Activities
Center, it will be:
First, a deserved memorial to
the thousands of A. & M. men
whose war services have establish
ed the glorious military record
and tradition of A. & M. men and
the A. & M. College of Texas—in
the Spanish-American and Border
Wars, in World War I, and today.
Second, a campus center where
A. & M. men may find comfort,
welcome, and recognition when they
visit their school—where similar
hospitality and accommodations
may be extended to parents,
sweethearts, and other campus vis-’
itors.
Third, more than the largely
social center provided by the Union
Buildings of other institutions. It
will include extended physical edu
cational facilities for the entire
student body; wholesome recrea
tion and influences; as well as
social facilities and atmosphere
now sadly lacking.
And fourth, the heart and soul
of a great campus—and the life
and activities of a great student
body. It will be a shrine of memor
ies; a setting for that jewel we
call the A. & M. Spirit.
—MAJOR SPORTS—

to the seniors of the 1943 team
will not be reporting for spring,
training since they will be called
to duty at the end of the semester
now under way. This new order
fi'om the capitol will not affect the
Cadets to any great extent, if any.
Texas university was hard hit
by the calling, losing 13 football
men and three basketball squad-
men, while Arkansas lost five foot
ball eligibles, two of which were
lettermen and regulars of last sea
son. These schools were the heav
iest hit. S.M.U. and Rice will lose'
a total of five men together, the
latter being without the services
of three. The majority of the In
stitute boys are in the Marine Re
serves and the Naval R.O.T.C.
Baylor and T.C.U. have not been
heard from at this writing.

“Aggie Pickin’s”, an Aggie hit
parade program similar to the na
tionally heard “Hit Parade” on
a major network.
“Aggie Pickin’s” was the idea
of Conrad Bering, senior from
Houston, News editor of WTAW,
and has been a regular feature of
the clambake since January of
1942, one of the longest regular
programs on the station.
In addition to the programs
broadcast by WTAW on her own
transmitter, the Texas Quality
Network consisting of WFAA-
WBAP, KPRC, and WOAI, carry
two regular programs from the
A. & M. radio station, namely the
Texas Farm and Home Program
every morning at 6 a.m., and the
Texas School of the Air on Thurs
day afternoon at 1:15.
There is always a demand for
radio talent. Any Aggie thinking
he has what it takes to be a radio
announcer, operator, or actor, is
asked to contact Joe Woolket at
the WTAW studios, second floor
YMCA for an audition.

Singing- Cadets Open
For Membership
The Singing Cadets, beginning
their third year under the direction
of Richard W. Jenkins, will open
membership to all new and old
students who desire to sing.
This singing group is organized
to provide extra curriculum activ
ity, and is supported by the school
as one of the outstanding enter
tainment features on the campus.
Travel will be curtailed this se
mester, and confined to the week
ends only due to the new class
schedule beginning Monday. The
Singing Cadets have, however, sev
eral trips to make this spring; just
where the club will go is as yet
unknown, but it is certain they will
make the trips if it is at all pos
sible.
You don’t have to be a trained
singer, nor a reader of music to
join the Singing Cadets; the only
requirements are that the student
should have an interest in singing,
and an ability to stay in tune with
the group.
Sign up for the Singing Cadets
during registration in the main
lobby of the Administration build
ing.
