The future outlook for China is
bright, provided that the United
States and the other nations of the
world are willing to view her sit
uation and progress with patience,
according to R. E. Snuggs, who
spoke at Tuesday’s luncheon meet
ing of the Kiwanis Club.
Snuggs told the club that he had
been born in China of an English
father and an American mother,
and that he had lived there until
he was eleven years old. He recall
ed as his chief impressions of China
her huge population, the poverty
of her people, and the variety of
dialects espoken in the country,
and demonstrated for the group a
typical Chinese song in the Can
tonese dialect.
Snuggs emphasized that we
should not pity China, since the
Chinese would shun such an atti
tude as causing them to “lose
face”. He pointed out their need
for education, for military sup
plies, and for patience of the other
nations of the world.
The luncheon meeting was open
ed with group singing of “Ameri
ca” and the introduction of guests,
after which the latest news flashes
were read by Byron Winstead.

New Intramural
Sports Scheduled
To Begin Aug. 6
Intramural play in softball, ten
nis, and volleyball is rapidly draw
ing to a close, according to a state
ment released today by W. L. Pen-
berthy, director of physical edu
cation.
Competition in basketball and
touch football will begin on Mon
day, August 6, according to Pen-
berthy, with basketball games
scheduled to start at 4:15 and 5:00
and touch football games beginning
at 5:00. A schedule of play is be
ing worked out at the present*
time.
On August 25 and 26 intracol-
legiate organizations will meet in
a swimming meet at Downs Nata-
torium to compete in a variety
of events, including the 400-ft.
free style relay, 100-ft. back stroke,
100-ft. side stroke, 200-ft. free
style, 400-ft military relay, and
diving.
The annual intramural track
meet will be held at the College
track on September 8 and 9.
Entry forms for entering these
events have been sent to each ath
letic officer, and intramural com
petition is expected to run as high
as has been the case during the
first part of the summer.
Lack of Trained
Technicians Slows
Up Ship Repairs
Crippled ships lying at Hunters
Point and Mare Island emphasized
to James H. Bond, Regional Direc
tor, WMC, the grave shortage of
electricians and machinists in those
Navy Yards, acording to his state
ment released here after personal
inspection of the San Francisco
Bay area.
Many ships, Mr. Bond said, are
I’eturned to duty wtih but a small
percentage of the needed repairs
completed. Consequently they must
put into jiort oftener, greatly low
ering their fighting value. Amjong
those waiting were the famous
Hornet, submarines, carriers and
other types of fighting ships, but
manpower is frightfully lacking.
Seven thousand men should be
hired in Texas, Louisiana and New
Mexico for these yards, according
to Mr. Bond, who said plenty of
housing is available, that meals
and transportation will be provided
by the Navy, that wages are good
with overtime after forty hours a
week.
Men for these jobs are hired
through U, S. Civil Service recruit
ing representatives in principal
cities of the three states. Those
eager to go at once can get under
way in a^ little as one day. In
formation is available at first and
second class post offices, or may
be had from the U. S. Civil Service
in either Dallas, Texas, or New
Orleans, Louisiana.
Man, Your Manners
By I. Sherwood
There is one important role to be
observed when attending a concert
or any other public entertainment.
You are expected to be absolutely
quiet during the performance of
the different numbers.
One’s conduct during any per
formance is governed by considera
tion for others. Once seated, don’t
make undue noise. Talking in any
tone of ■ voice, even a whisper} is
annoying to others. Don’t rustle
programs or any other papers, and
never read aloud. Audible com
ments, loud laghter, hisses, boos
and catcalls are vulgar. Unneces
sary and violent applause is in bad
taste. Take along cough drops if

finally strip teasing—such rats.
The vocal department, not to
be outdone, presented the bar
room quartet singing and/or mur
dering “She is More To Be Pitied
Then Censored.” This sad tale
of woe could hardly be finished
because of the violent sobs of the
audience, but the boys struggled
through, ending in a wonderful
chord of harmony. Technicians are
still trying to decide whether they
heard a slight razzberry under
tone among the applause of the
audience. Anyhow it was gen
erally agreed a repeat number
from the gang is in order.
The band presented “Deep Pur
ple” as the memory tune of the
evening, a new feature to be pre
sented each week to keep the
old tunes alive.
Last but not least the pride of
A. & M., The Singing Cadets, filed
on the stage with a rousing wel
come from the Aggies and gave
one of the best numbers of the
summer, “Old Man River,” ever-
popular negro heart-song.
Turner’s announcement that
Wednesday night’s show would
feature The Swingtet, four lovelies
from ole Fessor Floyd Graham’s
famous stage band of North Texas
State Teachers College evoked a
mighty Wildcat from the Aggies.
And why not—these four gals
have been featured on Showtime,
statewide radio hour sponsored by
Interstate, and last summer filled
a 16 week USO-Theater-Stage tour
of the nation.
you have a bad cough, but re
frain from eating candy or food
in a theatre or auditorium. Keep
your feet off the seats, and don’t
kick or tap nervously with them.
Sit quietly, without moving around
in the seat or wiggling your head
from side to side. And lastly, re
member that any display of affec
tion in a theatre is crude.
Performers before an audience
are entitled to appreciation .of their
efforts, which is usually shown by
applanse. It hardly seems unreason
able to ask that those who refuse
to show proper respect to speakers
or performers remain away.
Khakis are ready when you
call and do not smell sour.
