Scott says that his most unforgettable experience was actually before he came to school here. “I never will forget that bon fire in the year of 1942,” he re- . lated. “It rained like everything, but it seemed like nothing could stop that bonfire. It just kept burn ing higher and higher.” He also said that he would always remem ber the 1943 Turkey Day game, FOR A GOOD PLACE TO EAT — try the — A. & M.

In 1925 he went to work for In ternational News Service and trav eled throughout Russia. In 1928 he was transferred back to Berlin and here he wrote a number of articles and books about condi tions in Europe. It was in 1930 that he was awarded the Pulitzer-Prize for a series of stories based on his observations in Russia. When Hitler came into power things got pretty hot for Knicker bocker and he left Germany to be come INS’s roving reporter. He covered wars in Spain, France, Abyssinia and Japan. At the out break of this war he then covered stories inside of Europe. Wherever important news breaks, Knickerbocker is certain to turn up if he is not already there. His colleagues have come to regard him as a storm warning. Whenever Knickerbocker appears, they know a hot story is about to break.

A few miles out of town something went wrong and the car stopped. The professor tinkered and worried but could not make it go. Finally a passerby sent a mechanic who soon put the machine in working order. While all tjhis was taking place young Wect'or was sitting in the shade of a mesquite tree reading a book. The experience had tired the professor and he asked his com panion if he would like to drive the remainder of the way. The boy said that he would be glad to. On second thought the professor ask ed him if he had driven much. “No, I have never driven,” said young We do expert Washing and Mobilufc rication Let us keep your car looking good and running smoothly with our expert washing and Certified Mobilubrication.

Your Friendly MAGNOLIA DEALER Wector, “but I read the instruction book just now.” In more recent years he has shown an unusual gift for writing in addition to his ability to read widely and well. His first book, The Saga of American Society, pub lished in 1937, attracted immediate attention and assured Mr. Wector a place among the literary men of our time. This book was followed in 1939 by Edmund Burke and His Kinsmen; in 1941 his book, The Hero in American, came off the press. In 1943 he was coauthor with William Matthews of Our Soldiers Speak. His latest book is the time ly, Johnny Comes Marching Home, which was reviewed in this column recently. Since both of his latest publica tions are based on studies of mili tary men, Mr. Wector would seem to be peculiarly suited to teaching in our present A.S.T. programs. He was assigned some of these classes at the University of California where he is Professor of English. He reports that the boys taught him more than they learned from the professor. The latest recognition of Mr. Wector’s abilities was an invitation to become visiting Professor of English in a New Zealand Univer sity. He and Mrs. Wector have re cently sailed to accept the invi tation.—Dr. Leo T. Murray, De partment of Biology.
