Elect New Officers
Assembling for the first time
of the semester, on June 20, the

ident; Russell Benson of San An
gelo, vice-president; Jimmy Hen
derson of Coleman, secretary; Pale
Lane of San Angelo, treasurer;
Harold Broom of San Angelo, tail-

The purpose of the club is to

that such can be achieved, since
the club has a large membership.
A club party was planned at
the July 11 meeting of the club.
Committees for the arrangements
were appointed, and the date was
set for July 21.
An invitation is extended to all
West Texas Aggies to join the

Man, Your Manners
By I. Sherwood
m
.Knowing how to make introduc
tions is absolutely necessary if
you would save yourself any em
barrassment.
The most formal introduction is
“May I present?” When these
words are used you are actually
asking the honored person if you
may introduce another to him or
her. Therefore, since a man is
presented to a lady, you say, “Miss
Jones, may I present Mr. Smith”?
“May I introduce?” is a little less
stiff than “May I present” and
equally as proper.
A younger person is presented to
an older one of the same sex by
saying, “Mrs. Beach may I present
Miss Young?” or “Mr. Old may
I introduce Mr. Young?”
The most popular form for in
troductions is to use the words,
“this is,” saying “Miss Hart, this
is Mr. Jones”. Of course, young
folks are perfectly proper, when
in informal groups all the same
age, they say, “Mary Jones, this
is James Lee.”
The proper response to any form
of introduction is “How do you
do?” You may add the name if
you wish saying “How do you do.
Miss Jones.”
The only exceptions to present
ing the man to the lady are the
President of the United States and
high church officials.
