Sherwood Only the best informed of the younger generation would know just what constitutes a “date”, but from what we read it is a broader term than “social engage ment.” “Date” may be a noun of meaning or a verb of great im portance; it may be anything from a few minutes at the hamburger stand, to the most formal of dances; it may be the term for a man or girl whom one is “dating”, as well as the occasion itself. Dances furnish an important part of “dating” here at A. & M. Some young people rate their popularity by the number of “dates” they have but quality of “dates” should be more important than quantity. “Blind dates” are socially ac ceptable but they can be the least satisfactory of all “dates”. They are apt to prove disappointing for one or both parties participating. “Dating” seems to be so varied in its types that it is possible for the young man with very little cash to seek dates with any nice girl even though she comes from a wealthy family. Breaking “dates” is always dif ficult at best. Do not break a date without a legitimate excuse such as illness or a visit from some member of your family. again have that revex-ed Aggie ring on his finger.

Everett At the Palace Thursday through Saturday is showing “Winged Victory,” starring Sgt. Mark Dan iels and Pvt. Lon McAllister. This is a screen adaptation of the stage play with the original military cast. It tells the story of a crew of men from the time they become air corps cadets to their flights in their plane called the “Winged Victory.” Lowdown: Good pic! “Bathing Beauty,” starring Red Naval Yard Workers Urgently Needed Now “Names of ships damaged in the Pacific are not released here, but it is disclosed through de mands made locally for shipyard workers for West Coast Navy Yards, where damaged ships are hurried for repairs, that labor is seriously needed there at this time,” said Mr. H. N. Yardley, Civ il Service Recruiting Representa tive. “The battleship Tennessee badly hurt at Pearl Harbor limped into Puget Sound Navy Yard early in 1942; later, the Navy revealed it took part in routing the Japs out of Kiska and Attu. Then it return ed. This time the Tennessee’s decks were covered with the latest and most powerful naval guns. Then hurrying west it took part in the fight that sank two Jap battle ships, two cruisers and four de stroyers and made MacArthur’s landing at Leyte much less costly. Like fine jobs of fast ship re pairing are being done at Mare Island and Hunter’s Point Navy Yards, San Francisco”. Credit for quick return to the fight by U. S. ships is due at least in part, to the more than 600 Texans recently sent to help from the Tenth U. S. Civil Service Re gion, according to information in the office of Regional Director A. J. Leach. These Navy Yards are now pleading for electricians, machin ists, sheet metal workers and other mechanics. Texans who love the Navy but want to stay on the land and help it, should apply to the local Secretary here at Col lege Station, or write 210 South Harwood Street, Dallas, for infor mation and application blanks. Qualified persons are promptly hired. Travel expenses are paid to the yards, and housing guaranteed. Skelton, Esther Williams, and Bas il Rathbone, will be playing at Guion Hall for the last time Thurs day. This picture is a musical with two big name bands, 24 bathing beauties, songs galore, all against a girl’s college background. It’s really a knock-out picture with lots of women. Lowdown: Any Aggie will eat this up! Thursday at the Campus will be the final showing of “Bride By Mistake.” A comedy depicting the romance of an air corps veteran, home for a rest cure, and a girl with millions. The picture stars Alan Marshall and Marsha Hunt. Lowdown: Worth seeing. The weekly double feature will play at Guion Hall Friday and Saturday. The first show, “Mr. Big,” with Donald O’Conner, main ly is singing and dancing. The sec ond feature is “The Great Mo ment,” starring Joel McCrea, Bet ty Field, and Harry Carey. This is the story of W. T. G. Morton, the doctor who discovered ether as an anaesthetic. Lowdown: A pretty good picture. At the Campus Friday and Sat urday will be the double feature, “Gildersleeve’s Ghost”, and “Co bra Woman”. The first fea ture stars Harold Peary and Ma rion Martin and takes up the story of an invisible woman, a gorilla, spooks, and a mad scientist, mixed up in a haunted house. The second show is “Cobra Woman,” starring Maria Montez and Jon Hall. It is the story of twin sisters, one of whom is the cruel ruler of Cobra Island. It’s the same old Montez stuff—but what stuff! Lowdown: See this first. “Pin-Up Girl” will play at Guion Hall Sunday. The picture stars Betty Grable and lots of gals with beautiful “gams.” A very enter taining picture with lots of song and dance numbers. Lowdown: No Aggie will miss this! “None But the Lonely Heart,” starring Cary Grant and Ethel Barrymore, is the dramatic story of a young man who, in striving to raise himself and his mother from dire poverty, becomes in volved with a gang of thieves. The course he takes results in tragedy for himself and death for his moth er. Ultimately he realizes the fu tility of it all and starts out anew. Lowdown: Good Sunday enter tainment.
