SAM NIXON : MARION PUGH Sports Editor: CHARLIE WEINBAUM WENDELL McCLURE : Advertising Staff for This Issue JAMES DAVIS WARREN RICE JOHN R. HARRIS Editor Associate Manager .Reporter .Reporter .Reporter Henry Cohen’s Man . . . B’nai B’rith Hillel Foundation is giving $300 a year to A. & M. College for an unusual purpose. It does not go to the best athlete or the best-drilled soldier or the most ac complished scholar. It does not go to the winner of a jitter bug contest, the man who can call hogs most loudly or who can eat the most blackberry pies. It is not seeking out the most skilled essayist, the most fluent orator or the most active of those engaged in extra-curricular interests. The foundation has something else in mind. A. & M. is asked to give this $300 each year to the stu dent who, in the opinion of the deciding committee, has done most to promote friendliness between those of diverse re ligious faiths and racial origins. The purpose of the award, of course, is not so much to line the pockets of the winner as to call attention of young Texans to the good that such an influence can do. The award thus has a direct objective which it may well do much to attain. But, incidentally, it was a stroke of in spiration to name the award the Rabbi Henry Cohen Fel lowship. Henry Cohen stands in Texas for brotherliness un der God. At an age when most men of his calling would be in retirement, contemplating a life’s work well done, Henry Cohen is working harder than ever and enjoying every min ute of his work. It is no trouble to Henry Cohen to aid his fellow men, because Henry Cohen just naturally loves them all. It should be a wonderful thing to be known at A. & M. as Henry Cohen’s man. But it is far more wonderful actually to be that sort of man. Reprinted from The Dallas Morning News. Intramural Pace Slows Down Friday Friday was a, slow day in intra mural competition as attention of the athletes veered toward the dou ble-dance weekend. In Class A football, Mitchell Hall hit pay dirt in the last three plays of the game to overtake G Company 6-3. In the only other contest of the a ay, A Infantry swamped C Infantry 19-0 as Fer gus ran 30 yards for one T.D. and Matter and Lane providing the other scores. Bizzell was apparently busy with dance plans and forfeited to H Infantry in their scheduled hand ball match with H Infantry. In volleyball, H Company made KENYON AUTO STORE ASSOCIATE Household Needs Ironing Boards Pads and Covers College Station South Side short work of G Company, win ning 15-7 and 15-2.
