Program Aids
New Freshmen
Freshman Week, September 24
to October 1, is being given for
the- purpose of acquainting the
new men with the activities in
which they will be engaged at A.
and M., with staff members with
whom they will be associated. Bul
letins containing the complete pro
gram, together with important
messages to new students, have
been issued from the Registrar’s
Office. The new men who will ar
rive on the campus this week end
will be expected to follow this pro
gram in its entirety.
The program will include an in
terest locator test, a psychological
test, and another test in mathe
matics and science. Addresses from
various departments of the campus
will be included in the week’s
schedule.
At various times during the week
there will be assigned conferences
with the designated advisers for
the purpose of helping the student
in his introduction to college life
and work. Wednesday afternoon
the deans will hold meetings with
the men who are in their various
departments.
Recreational features will in
clude a reception for the new men
on the lawn of the President’s
Home, Thursday evening at 7:00
p. m. Other items of interest will
be swimming, soft ball games, and
free movies.
The ministers of the different
religious faiths will meet the stu
dents on Wednesday night, holding
special meetings for each religious
group.
It is a full week of activity for
these new men and will go far in
acquainting them with A. and M.
and the purpose for which they
have come to college.
Birth Certificate
Is Necessary To All
Explaining the need for all Texas
births to be registered through
the Bureau of Vital . Statistics,
Texas State Department of Health,
Dr. Geo. W. Cox, State Health Of
ficer, said in Austin today. “These
are many reasons why every person
needs a birth certificate. It is nec
essary for entrance into school, for
the right to vote, for work in Fed
eral Defense projects, to prove
American citizenship, for entering
military service, to prove legal age
for inheritance of property, for
proving claims of widows and or
phans, for settlement of insurance,
for right of admission to certain

professions, for collecting compen
sation from the government, and
for many other important activi
ties.
In Texas whenever a birth is at
tended by a physician, it becomes
the physician’s responsibility ac
cording to law to file a certificate
of birth. There are, however, child
ren born in the state without medi
cal attendance, and it is the pa
rents’ responsibility to have this
birth registered through the regu
lar channel.
The tremendous load of work
done in the past two and one-half
years by the Bureau of Vital Sta
tistics in affecting delayed regis
tration and furnishing copies of
birth certificates needed because
of the war and its resultant changes
in occupation and way of living
has demonstrated conclusively that
the registration of births at the
time they occur is of great personal
benefit to every individual.
Much of the delay and embar
rassment to people in search of a
delayed birth certificate could be
entirely avoided by general recog
nition of the value attached to each
individual having his own certifi
cate of birth.

suited for this work. He comes from
a family well known in Texas A.
& M. College history. He is a form
er football captain and a star play

stands student problems inasmuch
as he has dealth with them for
many years in another capacity.”
Rollins was business manager of

tank destroyer school, he was made

Major Rollins graduated from
Texas A. & M. with the class of
1917 after winning football letters
in 1914-15-16, being captain in
1916. He went into the army upon
graduation and as a captain took
a company of infantry to France.
He played on the 36th Division

coach at the East Texas State
Teachers College, Commerce, and
he returned to A. & M. in 1935 to
join the staff of Athletic Director
Norton.
Around the A. & M. campus
there’s a saying: “There’ll always
be a Rollins at Aggieland,” and it
might be added that, true to tradi
tion he’ll have, a nickname, and it
will be ‘Dough”.
