Aggie Players
To Give Follies
All-College Day
The Aggie Players will put on
the follies for this year’s All-Col

mittee decided at a meeting Wed
nesday evening.
The sub-committee working on
the follies reported that an agree

Aggie Players in which they will
take the responsibilities for the
entire show. The reservation was
made, however, that the show pro
duced by the Players will be sub

college day committee which is
offering its assistance in the pro
duction.
Tom Puddy was added to the
follies sub-committee which will
act as an advisory group to the

Aggies who like to “listen” to
music instead of just hearing it
have access now to a brand new
music room on the' third floor of
the Cushing Memorial Library.
Although the room itself is the
same one where music lovers pre
viously “roughed it,” it has an
entirely new air about it. The
furniture is new, the record player
is new, paint is new, and the femi
nine addition to the record player
is decidedly on the improvement
side. This addition comes in the
form of an attendant who operates
the new record player.
Yes, all the dreamers have to
do is fill out a request slip for
the selection they want played
and relax in one of the several
comfortable chairs in the room.
It’s just like playing a classical
jukelodion without having to use
a nickel.
The old record player, together
with several volumes of books on
music, was given to the library
music room ten years ago by the
Carnegie Corporation. The anti
quated piece of machinery has long
since gone up the trail of obsoles-
S e and was justified in doing so
use of the wear and tear at
the hands of classically inclined
but machine-stupid Aggies.

Short Course on 24-D Opens
Today; U.S.D.A. Experts to Talk
By M. N. BROWN
The short course on the application of 2,4-D week kill
ers began today in the YMCA Chapel under the chairmanship
of Dr. A. A. Dunlap, head of the Plant Physiology and Path
ology Department.
The course, sponsored by the Plant Physiology
and Pathology Department, is de-+
signed to present the latest de-'
velopments in the application and
use of 2,4-D, now the most widely
used of all weed killing chemicals,
Dunlap stated.
The meeting, which will continue
through Friday, led off with a
talk by Dr. L. S. Evans, agrono
mist of the USDA Bureau of Plant
Industry, Beltsville, Maryland, on
the subject of “History and Im
portance of 2,4-D in Crop Produc
tion.”
An interesting point brought
out by Dr. Evans was that 2,4-D
is not a poison, but a hormone
like material that causes serious
disturbances in plants.

S. Truman becomes president of the United States today for
four more uncertain years. And for his inauguration, Amer
ica put together the greatest national pageant in all its

By JACK RILEY
One hundred Reserve Office commissions will be presented to eligible cadets tonight at
7:45 in Guion Hall by Major General K. L. Berry, adjutant general of the State of Texas.
The cadets receiving their second lieutena nt’s commissions have completed four semes
ters of advanced military science and four semesters of basic military science or equivalent.
Gen. Berry is a native Texan who entered the Texas National Guard as a private in 1916.
He graduated from the Infantry
School in 1926 and the Advanced
Infantry Course in 1929. He re
tired from the Army in 1947.
Berry has been awarded the Dis
tinguished Service Cross and the
Silver Star medals for valor.
The commissioning ceremonies
will be similar to the cadet com
missioning ceremonies held earlier
this semester. They will consist of
an address by President F. C. Bol
ton and one by General Bei'ry. The
administration of the oath of of
fice will be given by Lt. Col. W. S.
McElhenny. Cadet Chaplain G. H.
Rice will give the invocation and
the benediction. The Aggie Band
will play for the occasion.
“Pinning of Bars”
After completion of the presen
tation of the commissions the “Pin

the little, were on hand to crowd
the capital’s gayly decked streets
and give him a “Hi, Harry,” pay
him honor and wish him well.
Yet beneath all the gayety and
excitement, the most Washington
has stirred up in many a year,
there was an undertone of solem
nity, and dignity.
For at this supreme moment in
the story-book career of the one
time Missouri farm boy there rest
ed on him the eager expectations
of millions of Americans for more
bounteous blessings, and hopes of
an uneasy world for peace in our
time and peace for all time.
And peace was the theme eve
rybody expected in advance in
Mr. Truman’s inaugural address.
That—and a “fair deal” at home
—was what he hammei’ed on hard
est in a rousing campaign that
produced one of the biggest upset
victories in American politics.
He repeated it last night at a
dinner given him by the electoral
college—an ancient institution he
says he wants to preserve unchang
ed.
The chief executive seemed once
more to underscore his will for
peace in selecting the ten com-
mandmants and the beatitudes as
the biblical passages on which to
steady his left hand while taking
the oath of office for the world’s
most trying job:
“Thou shalt not kill” . . .
Blessed are the peacemakers:
for they shall be called the chil
dren of God.”
A white frame platform with
towering columns, built across the
front steps of the capitol building,
was the setting for the inaugural
ceremony at 11 a.m. GST. Out
front there were seats for 17,500
and standing room for another
100,000.
First there was the vice presi
dential oath for Senator Alben W.
Barkley of Kentucky. Then it was
Mr. Truman’s turn to hold aloft
his hand and repeat after Chief
Justice Vinson of the Supreme
Court:

Agreements Of
Deferment Now
Being Signed
Deferment agreement s are
now being accomplished by
students who signed advanc
ed ROTC contracts in Sept.
1948, and who were not ex
empt under the Selective Ser
vice Act, Colonel H. L. Boat
ner, PMS&T, announced to
day.
“Veterans and members of the
enlisted reserve and National
Guard units are exempt from the
draft and will not be required to
sign deferment agreements at this
time,” Boatner said.
The Selective Service Act pro
vides that members of the Nation
al Guard, Enlisted Reserve Corps
and veterans are automatically de
ferred from induction for training
as long as a state of emergency
does not exist.
Students taking Advanced Mili
tary Science who come under this
category will be given an opportun
ity at a later date to sign a de
ferment agreement if sufficient
quota vacancies exist. This agree
ment will then exempt them in ac
cordance with the law from induc
tion or service until completion of
their ROTC program, Boatner said.
“All students, whether a defer
ment agreement is signed or not,
who took an advanced contract af
ter June 24, 1948, are required to
serve two years in the armed for
ces after completion of advanced
military science and their college
work, if called by the Secretary of
Defense,” Colonel Boatner , coni
eluded.
And the Wind Blew
J
Profs Ashby, Woods, Kidd Are ‘Unanimously’
Chosen To Be Judges In ‘Tall Tales Contest’
By FRANK CUSHING
Realizing the seriousness invol
ved in judging the “Tall Tales
Contest,” the editors of The Batta
lion have looked long and carefully
to find men equal to the task.
No stone was left unturned in
the search for individuals qualified
to weigh the various merits of the
different entries. And so, from
under the upturned rocks, emerged
the gentlemen who are giving the
momentous task of judging the
competing stories in the liar’s con
test.
Harry Kidd, prominent member
of the English Department, was
chosen unanimously by the editors
as was Dr. Paul J. Woods, self-
styled hisorian. Some debate arose
over the picking of James B. Ash
by of the Business and Accounting
Depai'tment.
Opponents to the selection of
Prof Ashby argued that he not
only had moments of sanity, but
that he had been known to tell
the truth on different occasions.
Both of these arguments were
jeered down by the majority of
the selecting editors so Ashby
proved to be the third judge.
All three of these judges are
connoisseurs of the fine art of
ejecting the proverbal male-bovine.
Each has either received his BS
degree or has done a considerable
amount of work towards achieving
that coveted sheepskin.
Various reactions were demon
strated by these gentlemen when
they were informed of the honor
bestowed upon them. Ashby when
told that he was to be a judge
had to give into his emotions. As
tears silently slid down his cheeks
a huge lump slowly rose in his
throat hindering his speaking. In
a voice muffled with feeling he
said, “This should happen to me!”
■in a bewildered tone.
Dr. Woods accepted his lot
with less show of spirit. His sole
comment was, and we quote, “I’ll
be damned!” The third judge,
Harry Kidd, made a modest ac
ceptance speech. He pointed out
that he felt inadequate to the
task. “Many others in the de
partment know far more about
bulling,” he said. However, when
assured by the editors that he
was mistaken he added that per
haps he was under estimating
himself.
Although the contest is now of
ficially closed, we think the follow
ing entries should be printed now.
As yet no decision has been reach
ed as to the winners. Picking the
top tale will indeed be a difficult
task.
Even though extremely short,
J. W. Timlinson’s entry is certain
ly appropriate for a contest of this
nature. He writes, “Texas Univer
sity has the greatest, student-body
school spirit of any school in the
world.”
Swain Stodghill relates about
the size of the mosquitoes in his
part of the country. “The larg
est one I ever saw,” tells Stodg
hill, “was one day while I was
hunting a yellow bill Humming
bird with my double barreled 4
gauge shotgun. While walking
in a densely wooded section I
noticed that the whole sky was
getting dark.
“Looking up I thought I saw
a B-36 bomber coming straight at
me. I had heard of man-eating mos
quitos but this was the first I’d
seen. I was frozen in my tracks by
fear, and probably wouldn’t be
here to tell this story, if the sound
waves from the vibration from his
wings hadn’t thrown me to one
side. After he missed me he hit
a large oak tree nearby. I quickly
ran to the other side of the tree
and bradded his bill down, ruining
my gun in the process.
“Since I had nothing to kill the
beast with, I had to let him flop
himself to death. While in the
process, however, he cleared away
all the trees, bushes, and other
vegetation within a hundred acres
area. I left him to decay and there
by created a wonderful system of
fertilization. After I returned in 6
months I picked up his bones and
used them for fence posts for the
entire plot of ground. To this day
I am able to raise five bales of
cotton to an acre on this formerly
useless soil.”
Running on the theory that
you can’t enter too often, Bruce
Place has sent in another tale.
Place begins, “People talk about
the Big Inch pipe line from Tex
as to the East as though it were
big. Well, they should have seen
the one that was built back
when I was a kid. When they
stopped pumping oil through it
(they could glut the entire
world’s oil market with a day’s
production.) they would use it
for driving cattle to the East.
However they had to stop mov
ing cattle through it because the
little dogies would get lost in the
threads of the pipe and they
could never find them.”
Another repeater is Joe A, Bo-
dine. Joe narrates, “There have
been many tales about big winds.
For instance the one about the
wind that blew the bottom of a
barn away and left the roof in the
air for ten minutes. But I h^ive
never seen a big wind equal to the
one in West Texas last summer.
“I was traveling in an old model-
T Ford from one town to another.
I had gone about a hundred miles
and still had two hundred before
me when I ran out of gas. I push
ed my car to the side of the road
and awaited for aid from a passing
motorist. None came by, though,
and I was getting downright dis
heartened, when I saw a fast wind
coming down the road.
“Since it seemed to be power
ful, and traveling at a high
speed I hit upon the somewhat
crazy notion of pushing my car
back upon the road and seeing if
the wind would shove me along.
“I opened the doors of the jalopy
and waited. The wind arrived and
to my amazement my idea worked.
In fact, everything worked too
well. After a few minutes I had to
close my doors and apply my brake
as I was approaching my destina
tion. Worse luck I received a ticket
for speeding.”
