Local Prof Judges
Valley Dairy Show
A. L. Darnell, Professor of Dairy
Husbandry, judged the second Rio
Grande Valley Dairy Show at San
Benito, Texas, on October 26. The
dairy show was sponsored by the
dairy cattle breeders in coopera
tion with the San Benito Chamber
of Commerce.
Only two breeds of cattle were
represented in the show, Jerseys
and Guernseys. Considering the
fact that this was only the sec
ond show in the Valley, Darnell
said the cattle were exceptionally
fine. There was a goodly number
of cattle in the show, about eighty
Jerseys and a smaller number of
Guernseys.
Cattle were judged and placed
on the basis of scorecard which
made possible for any number of
animals to be in the award group.
This show was based on the clas
sification type which is widely
used in Denmark. The award
classes were in the blue, red, and
white groups. The grand champion
is selected from the blue ribbon
winners. From the number of blue
ribbon winners, it was judged that
there were many good quality ani
mals in this show.
Time guest will be Marion Man
ners who will sing “It Could Hap
pen to You.”
Hal Stevens, vocal star of the
WTAW Glamor Manor Series, will
interpret the number one tune of
the week, “I’ll Walk Alone,” when
she visits the program on Thurs
day, November 9. Stevens will be
accompanied by Constantin Baka-
leinikoff’s RKC orchestra.
Larry Stewart, who sings the
“theme song of the week” on Holly
wood Star Time, will he heard in
a special song spot on Friday,
November 10, singing “Begin the
Beguine.” Motion picture stars will
be interviewed on each program
by Gary Breckner and Larry Kea
ting in the main diningroom of the
RKO Studios, where the program
originates.

Exten. Service Sets
Up AdvisoryBranch
For War Veterans
Technical workers to assist re
turning war veterans who are in
terested in farming have been set
up in 240 counties, and their ag
gregate membership now numbers
more than a thousand, according to
Joe L. Matthews, assistant in agri
cultural planning for the A. and
M. College Extension Service.
These committees are concerned
only with men who want to farm
and seek assistance and probably
these won’t constitute more than
10 or 15 per cent of the total in
uniform, Matthews explains. Sev
eral committees are contacting
service men from their counties
offering assistance, and in one
instance 90 per cent of more than
2,000 men received questionnaires
on their plans, with replies re
ceived for more than half.
Rusk County sent letters to
more than 3,000 service men, and
similar work has been done by
numerous other counties, including
Eastland, and Midland. Commit
tees now are gathering such in
formation to furnish veterans as
amount of capital required for pur
chase and leasing of farms and
ranches and sources of credit, size
of units necessary to maintain
satisfactory standards of living and
equitable partnership and rental
agreements.
In most instances, these advisory
committees are sub-committees of
County Agricultural Victory Coun
cils, and county agricultural agents
serve as their secretaries as well
as giving advice which comes with
in the province of their usual offi
cial duties, Matthews explains.
Under an arrangement between the
War Food Administration and the
Selective Service organization, re
turning veterans interested in agri
culture are referred to the county
Extension agents for assistance.
Matthews says he finds wives
and mothers of service men alert
to after-the-war adjustments, and
many home demonstration councils
and clubs now are studying the G.
I. Bill of Fights.

LOUPOT’S
Aggie Ex Receives
DFC in McCloskey
Hospital Ceremony
The Distinguished Flying Cross,
one of the Army’s top-ranking
awards, was presented to Capt.
George H. Hutchings, Jr., of Ft.
Worth, 22-year-old veteran of 89
combat missions over Sicily and
Italy, in a retreat ceremony and
parade held at McCloskey General
hospital, Temple, Texas, this week.
The Captain, who is now serving
as Army Air Forces Liaison officer
at McCloskey, was commended for
his “proficiency and steadfast de
votion to duty” on more than 85
combat missions and was given
special recognition for his work in
leading an eight-plane formation
of fighter-bombers in an attack up
on enemy gun positions near Cassi-
no, Italy, on May 15, 1944.
Citation for the medal, presented
to Captain Hutchings ' by Lieut.
Col. Henry C. Smith, MC, repre
senting Brig. Gen. James A.
Bethea, commanding general of
McCloskey, describes this Cassino
attack as one calling for precision
accuracy in bombing, because of
the close proximity of friendly
ground troops.
According to the citation, Cap
tain Hutchings “displayed great
courage and superior flying ability
as he skillfully maneuvered through
a heavy overcast and intense anti
aircraft fire upon the approach to
the target.” His deftly-directed run
over the objective enabled his P-
40’s to destroy a number of mortar
positions, and ammunition dump,
seven motor transports, and to in
flict many casualties upon enemy
personnel.
The Fort Worth youth, son of
Mr. and Mrs. George H. Hutchings,
1108 Hurley, went overseas July
1, 1943, first piloting an A-36
fighter-bomber, and then a P-40 in
dive bombing and strafing attacks
upon German-held Sicily and Italy.
He arrived back in the States the
latter part of June, lacking just a
few days ob being overseas a year,
and began his assignment at Mc
Closkey Sept. 28 of this year.
Besides the Distinguished Flying
Cross, the captain wears the Air
Medal with four Oak Leaf Clus
ters and the European-African
theater ribbon with two stars. A
graduate of Paschal High School,
Fort Worth, he attended Texas A.
& M. for two years before entering
the cadets in March, 1942. He re
ceived his wings and commission
from Aloe Field, Victoria, Texas
in February, 1943, was promoted
to first lieutenant Jan. 28 of this
year and received his captaincy
June 11, 1944.
