Penberthy mkt 1 US We have been through a very interesting and exciting football season which was climaxed, as far as we were con cerned, with one of the most thrilling games ever play- Isd on historic Kyle ^mField. I think the sM-^ttitude of most of s very well m^fexpressed by the pi|A. & M. fan who llllsaid he was disap- pointed in the out come of the game, but not dissatis- Penberthy fied with the per formance of our team. The men who represented us made us very proud of them by the way they played the game which in my opinion is a very important thing. I am sure that a great many of us through our deep interest in the team let things get a little out of balance and as a result have probably suffered to varying de grees scholastically, and the score is a little against us here at the half. . We have derived a great deal of pleasure from seeing our team come back strong during the second half of several games this fall. We always like to see a strong fin ish, and it is a lot of satisfaction to have what it takes to make such a finish. Most of us are not so far behind but that if we apply our selves we can’t finish up there among the leaders. We have one opponent to battle—ourselves. It has been said many times that the game is not lost until the last gun has been fired, but I feel that the earlier in the game we start our comeback the better our chances for victory. There is a sign in the gym where the coaches give the final instructions before a game, which I feel is just as appropriate from the scholastic standpoint as from the athletic. This sign says, “It is the way you show up at the show down that counts.” Methodist Ladies Realize Profit at Annual Bazaar A profit of $378.60 was realized from the annual bazaar held by the Women’s Society of Christian Serv ice of the A. & M. Methodist Church Monday night. Approximately 200 persons at tended the bazaar. A dinner plate was served, and booths featured toys, linens, aprons, foods, and other articles.

College of Texas held its annual meeting in the Geology and Petro leum Building with 50 members and guests present. Professors W. A. Varvel became president; C. C. Doak was elected president-elect, and A. A. L. Mathews was re-elect ed secretary-treasurer. A summary of the year’s work was given by the secretary. Professor A. A. Jakkula, assist ed by Professors D. F. Weekes and P. B. Pearson conducted a seminar report of “Pending National Leg islation in regard to Research”. It was stated that there are five separate bills before Congress for the purpose of assisting research, namely, Senate Bills, Nos. 1297, 1285, 1248, and 825, sponsored by Kilgore, Magnuson, Fulbright, and Byrd, and House Bill No. 3440 sponsored by May. Two of the five bills could easily be combined into one, but the others are so far apart in design that no possible com bination could be made. Two of the bills deal mostly with the admin istration of the funds, one says nothing 'about the administration of the funds, and the other two propose to set up a non-salaried administrative group. The intent of all of the bills is to provide funds for research in many different fields, but all in clude “military purpose”. The committee handed the secretary of the club a summary of all of the bills, which is available to those who are interested. The pending bills call for an appropriation of more than $100,000,000. Of this amount, the estimated budget for use in Texas A. & M. College will be more than $1,600,000. The hostesses for the social hour were Mesdames Weekes, Doak, Jakkula, and Mathews.
