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.
