“Dosie Do and around you go”
is - the call that echoes back and
forth in Shiloh Hall every second
jand fourth Tuesday of the month
when the Foot and Fiddle Club
swings into square dance time.
This unique cjub, wose member
ship consists of approximately. 30
A&M professors and their. wives,
was one of the pioneers in brmg-
... - ^
ng old time square dancing
to the Brazos Botton country. Or
ganized in the summer, of 1947,
the 'Foot afid Fiddle Club has
watched and helped? the rise in
popularity, of “grab ! your partner

At Last Meeting
Henderson Shuffler; Director of

noon luncheon meeting Tuesday
that his job was to disseminate
information of the college by press,

The speaker traced the workin;
of the different college, depart*;
ments which disseminate new^ say
ing that news which leaver these
departments is “factual fpt - as "we
kqow it to be”. We are hot inter
ested in propaganda. We propoke
to and are sending out factual news
about A&M College, which the peo
ple, of Texas are entitled^ to know.
We .tell the news services, when
asked about news of A&M, just
what we know, and if we do not
know, we find Out We answer
Questions directly, y
Shuffler urged his audience,
many of whom are connected with
A&M, to let the publicity office
know the news of their depart
ments. . - *
“We want to publicize the doihgl
of your particular department not
only to its credit, but to the credit
of the, college as well,” he said.
Sid Loveless, president, presid
ed, and J. B. McGuire introduced
the speaker. Welcome E. Wright

B. F. Vance, state PMA director,

' Thompson is also the “caller”
for the club Ranees. To make sure
that he gets to dance n little him
