This Week’s ’College Speaks’
Presents All-Around Program
The “College Speaks” series,
heard each week-day at 5:15 p. m.
over station WTAW, is planned to
interest each individual listener,
whether he likes biology, mathe
matics, history, or the political
situation. This series is designed
to give each department at A. &
M. an opportunity to speak on
some phase of its work.
Scheduled for the week of Feb
ruary 3-7 is Howard Joham, in
structor in the Biology Depart
ment, who discussed a phase of
the animal kingdom, yesterday.
Truett Book, a member of the
Modern Languages Department,
spoke this afternoon on the pol
itical situation in France, com
paring it to that in the United
States, giving special emphasis to
the French political parties and
their manner of electing officials.
J. L. Shawn, a member of the
Mathematics Department, has se
lected for Wednesday a brief res
ume of the life of Archimedes, con
sidered to be the greatest mathe
matician in the last 2000 years.
Dr. S. R. Gammon, head of the
Department of History, on the
Thursday program will stress the
damage or dis-service that was
done to the national government
through the actions of Benedict
Arnold, Aaron Burr, James Wil-
kens, and the late Senator H. C.
Lodge, grandfather of the present
senator. Dr. Gammon entitles his
discussion “Damaged Souls”.
Miss Wilnora Barton, reader’s
advisor at Cushing Library, will
devote her Friday program to dis
cussing the services that the li
brary offers its patrons. During
the remaining weeks of the spring
semester, Miss Barton will review
current books.
Four Aggies Named
On All-Star Team
Four famous Texas Aggie foot
ball greats have been placed on an
all-star Sugar Bowl team by Fred
Digby, sports editor of the New
Orleans Item.
Digby, one of the remaining 39
members of the New Orleans Mid
Winter Sports Association, names
seven Southwest Conference play
ers to this mythical eleven in his
new book, “The New Orleans Su
gar Bowl Classic.” John Kim
brough won the spot of fullback,
Ernie Pannel took over the left-
tackle position, while Marshall
Robnett covered up the left guard
slot. All three players took part
in the 1940 Sugar Bowl game be
tween A & M and Tulane.
Herb Smith won a second team
spot as left end and shares the
distinction of going the whole
game along with Kimbrough, Rob
nett and Jim Thompson. Other
SWC players to make the team
were all from TCU; they include
Sammy Baugh, right halfback;
Tracy Kellow, right guard; Davey
O’Brien,' quarterback; and Ki Aid-
rich as center.
WE WANT to use this medium to extend our
thanks to all of the students for your cooperation,
patience and understanding throughout the rush.
Your cooperation was a definite aid to us.

VA Foots Toupee Bill
The Veterans’ Administration in
Newark, New Jersey, has just ap
proved purchase of a toupee for
an unidentified' service man, who
claimed the loss of his hair was a
service-connected disability. The
bald man received a blanket order
to get the best one he could find
at government expense. But the
administration office rejected a
former GI’s request for a pension
for his dog which saw service in
the K-9 corps. Nor would the
office pay for shoeing a former
soldier’s mule, which was a veter
an of the Burma campaign.
