Singing Cadets Have Troubles;
Axle Breaks on Dallas Streets

H : ! By R. i. PILRNER '• j: | ,
The Hinging Cadets paid “Big I)” an unexpected visit
last Sunday| afternoon while returning from Denton. The
(’atlets had an eventful week-e'ndrin Denton, singing on a
program at NTSC Saturday night] and in the First Metho
dist Church of Denton, Sunday morging.
, The week-end went smoothly! up to Sunday afternoon
•whph all hell broke loose for the
Aggnes as they passed through
Dallas. Dallasites, taking one look
at | the two biis loads of Singing
Cadets passirig through Dallas,
must have thought a vanguard of
next f«b’* corps trip had arrived.
RbHipg along on Industrial Blvd.
the, rear bus suddenly broke an
axlq,; leaving thirty of the Singing
! Gridfejts (frantically waving and yell
ing I trying to stop the front bus.
The] cjjulets hurriedly sought the
aid iof » police caf—police cars fpt
: spjhte reason are always in the
vicinity when a group Aggies
are],present in some of our larger
' cities. Despite the two-way radio
the] bps containing thirty of- the
Ringing cadets was able to get
past the cordon of police cars un-
pritieetC
The ! first bus continued on to
Cbljege Station while the fellows
ip the second bus remained stiian-
de<l! ih] Dallas. Making a frahtic
appeal for help to the Dixie Trail-
ways Bus Company, the Aggies
niade a deal to have a new axle in
stalled in the chartered . bus that
afternoon.
The stranded bus contained aU
most all the solo talent of the Sing
ing Cadets. Too off-set this loss,
Solriist Buddy Boyd, of Fort Worth,
made a mad dash to Aggieland in
a] private car, arriving in time to
sing With the thirty cadets of the
fin§t bus at the A&M Methodist
Chjarch that night He sang all the
srilb parts usually rendered by
Riilph; Wheat, Leonard Perkins, and
Flurry Doran. Conrad Cone sang in
dace of Helmut Quiram.

Comic Dancer
To Appear In
Guion March 4
. ■ ' : ! j! f ' .'
By ART TOMKINS
Guion Hall has Sported some-
wierd characters in its iime, but
what promises' to be one of the
most entertaining of all wierd
characters appears March 4 in a
satirical dance revue.
)
Iva Kitchell, a Junction City,
Kansas, girl through the machina
tions of fate, began her study of
the Dance in a serious frame of
mind, but one day realized how
Silly dancers could look when they
assumed those ethereal expressions.
She has been laughing ever since
and making others laugh just as
heartily.
The excessive, sentimental, half-
baked and overdone “‘artistes’’ are
the ones for whom Iva Kitchell goes
gunning. She respeetjs their ability
hut enjoys throwing: another light
on whatever they have so seriously
wrought, she says. !
Though Miss Kitchell makes a
tremendous joke of “the dahnse,”
she is acclaimed by critics as an
accomplished dancer in her own
right. Her grace, balance, timing
and technical treatment approach
perfection, they say; 4 , -
Her program for March 4 in
cludes Sonatina Rocgoco, a souped
up classic; Chorus Girl; Selections
from Beethoven, Schubert, and
Saint-Saens done up in Kitchell
style; Non-Objectivei; Growing Up;
Soul in Search, a take-off on Mar
tha Graham’s style; and Maizie at
the “Moovies.”
The final selection is called “The
Tale of a Bird.” In this opus Miss
Kitchell as Iva Kjitchellova por
trays first the biriil and then as
Ivan Kitchelloff, the hunter; The
bird gets annihilated after much
ridiculous carrying-on,But it should
be worth seeing even though you
know the poll.

Pipe Smoking Contest Toda)
Record Said Made in Practice
With hopes of setting a neW*"
record for collegiate non-stop pipe
smoking, Aggie puffers are sched
uled to get together at the YMCA
,/it 5 o’clock this evening in the
first pipe-smoking contest to be
held at the college.] • j>
Prizes are $5 pipes, offered by
the college confectioneries to first
place winners in each of the three
divisions, and $1.50 pipes for sec
ond place. Also large cans of Bond
Street or Revelation pipe toliaceo,
offered by the Phillip Morris Co.
Judge of results in the heavy
weight pipe division will be Dr.
Paul J. Woods of the History de
partment. Standard .pipe smokers
will be judged by Jim Noton, editor
of The Texas Aggie, while those
who smoke metal creations will be
judged by Vick Limdley, wire edi
tor of The Battalion. All the judges
are themselves incorrigible pipe
smokers. 1 j f
According to campus grape-vine,
one contestant, in a practice smoke,
kept going for one hour and 45
minutes on a single pipeful.] Be
cause all contestants in each class
will he limited to an equal amount
of tobacco, he may not be able
to smoke so long in competition,
but it dots,seem probable that the
LSU record of one hour 4 minutes
iuiay be broken.
Visitors, who simply want to
gape at their friends br jnotnm
making like Vesuvius!, will be
come. Free • smokes wlljl be diji
bu(;ed to all smokers attending

Denied Writ By
Court of Appeals
AUSTIN, Tex,, Feb. 25 ij’Pi—He-
man Marion Sweatt, Houston Neg
ro, today lost another round in his
court fight to ghin admission as
a law student in the University of
Tejxas.
The Third Court of Civil Appeals
upheld the lower court’s refusal to
grant Sweatt a mandamus (court
order) forcing the University to
admit him as a student.
The opinion was written by Chief
Justice James W. McClendon.
The “controlling” question pre
sented in Sweattls appeal from the
126th District Court of Travis
county, said Justice McClendon, is
whether the state at the time of
the trial had provided and made
available tq Sweatt a course of in
struction in first-year law equiva
lent or substantially equivalent to
that provided at the University’s
law school. ’
The Appellate Court found from
the evidence that the state has
made “an enormous outlay both in
Binds and in carefully and con
scientiously planned and executed
endeavor ... to afford every rea
sonable and adequate facility and
opportunity guaranteed
(Sweatt) under the 14th amend--
