L. Cashion, general sec retary of the A&M YMCA dis closed today. Construction slated in Texas is part of a $50,000,000 nation-wide “Y” building program, according to Cashion, who said that figures for Texas, based on reports from national headquarters, will be greatly increased as estimates of other projects are completed. The A&M YMCA is making plans to enlarge bowling and billiards facilities by extending the sub basement of the present building out to the Military Walk on the east and to the sidewalk on the south, Cashion said. A concrete slab will be run over the top which will give a large surface for deck chairs, tables, games, and the like. This arrangement, according to Cashion’s figures, will add five bowling alleys to present equip ment, several additional billiard tables, an office for the supervisor, and modern opera chairs for spec tators. The room will be air condi tioned, he said. Church Notices FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH R. L. Brown, Pastor 9:46 a. m. Sunday School 9:45 a. m. Sunday School 10:50 a. m. Morning Worship 6:00 p. m.

Ott, former instructor in Veterinary Physiology at A. & M. College, visited the campus last week after returning from the Philippines where he was held prisoner by the Japanese for a period of thirty-four months. Captain Ott, entered the Army Veterinary Corps in September, 1940, and was assigned to the Phil ippines after a training course in Chicago. His duties on the islands included servicing a mule unit en gaged in the transportation of sup plies to the men on Bataan Penin sula. Upon the surrender of Ba taan, he was taken by the Japs and endured the hardships of the infamous “Death March of Ba taan”. In the prison camps he was assigned to a detail to search for and kill the native water buffalo, which supplemented the diet of the prisoners. He was also instrumental in improving the sanitation condi tions of the camp during his im prisonment. Upon his release, he was flown from Luzon to Leyte, where he was provided with boat passage to San Francisco. He is scheduled to return soon to Chicago for a phy sical examination, after which he will receive new orders. Buy more war bonds!
