Fixing fyaWa Trouble,
• •
ll* feptlitlofli are In order, we would like to mention a mibjeot
In ill id t’oluinn thnl appe^md here laat week.
OVnr arid over npnin Annex atudentu have been cdmplalnlnx about
the delivery eeridce of their "tiatta." The gripe haa fallen upon the
ataff members of the Freshman Page, and we would like to shift It a
little to whoever mlghi be the necessary party or parties.
, In tracing this deficiency In delivery, we first went to some of
the sjjpply sergeants Who are responsible for the transportation of
these newspapers from the tactical officer’s building to the various
barracks In his compafliy, In every case, these men claimed that when
i they went by to pick up the bundles of papers that were sOppobed t6
be waiting for them, hone could be found. ®
With the blame lifted from the supply sergeants, we then went
to g'ee Dean Breazeale- about the matter. He was very surprised to
hear of it and immediately made note of the situation and also made
a few phone calls.
We let the matter rest in the hands of Brezeale, but there is
still a possibility that you won’t receive your paper in the future.
If this happens, contact your tactical officer. He will try to find out
why you haven’t been getting a paper that you have already paid for.

Hitch-hikers Get
Stuck- But Good
By KENNETH WILLIAMS
There seems tp be a jinx on Stan Sydenhemn and Roger Kemper
whenever they attempt to reach San Antonio by the Aggie route.
These unlucky hitch-hikers have tried to reach San Antonio twice,
only to find themselves stuck in Bryan both times. The first time
they attempted the trip was the day of the Texas Tech game. The
next weekend found the same story as poor Stan and Roge^ came
drooping back to Little Aggieland once more. Better luck next time
boys. , — j
The moral of this Is tp park your cars on the parking lots, not in
front o£ your barracks, Charles Russell parked his Crosley in front
Of T1230 while he ,w«int in to prepare for ti trip to town. ♦ He had just
turned his back wpen the front doors were opened by pne culprit while
Several other carried the car Into the barraciks, The barracks pro
vided a fine garage fpr a short period of time; however the school
pHivIdes several parking lots for the cars. I think you will find your
rgi’ much safer there, <'harlei|i .provided some joker doesn't throw II
oif top of the gyinnasltitn,
. i am going to attempt to run a weekly column of this type lof
unusual happenings, tjf anything unusual haa happened to you or any
of your huddles, look mje up In T-231). 1 will appreciate ell the material
i I can get for this column.

Two Idalou cotton growers with
1,0(50 acres of mature crop have
worked out a way to get it hut?
vested despite the labor shortagfT
City Judge Joe M. Hill of Dallas
last week fined 34 prisoners $100
each, but suspended sentence if they
agreed to go with the two farmers
to Lubbock county and pick cotton.
The men agreed and went with the
farmers, Louis Countess and Del
bert Mack Sawyers.
“It would be hard to find men
who are better workers,” (Jounte^s
said. “Why, last Wednesqay five
men pulled 2,334 pounds of cottoil.
They got the prevailing wage rates
too.” , |

The former prisoners seemed sat
isfied too. A strapping Negro with
several fresh knife wounds! on his
neck and chest said, “they sure
have been treating us nice. We
havle a nice place to live, plenty
to eat and make good money."
The men are free to cdjne and
go as they please.

Selection of a Freshman editor,
associate editor, and fts many othi-
er positions as the board deems
necessary, will be rpade by the
board and announced in the Freshi
man page of that weak.
The .freshman editor and his as*
sistanta will be picked on a basis
of writing ability, knowledge of
The Battalion's typographic and
writing style, and the leadership
ability to produce a Sufficiency of
good copy for his page, the co-edi*
tors said.
An Annex-wide election to deter
mine the Oditortal positions on the
Freshman page had originally been
planned, but the delay necessitate^
by the election would havefiimpair-
ed publication of the Freshman
page, the co-editors said.

"If we wait until the Annex gen
eral elections in December" the ^
editors said, “we believe that both
the Freshmen and our own staff
will suffer from the delay. The
Freshman staff will lose that touch
time in getting organized and
working as a unit. They would
actually only be serving half a
scholastic year. With our bWR
staff as over-worked as it is, we!
are hesitant in continuing the ex--
tra work of the Freshman page>
when the freshmen cap, and want;
to handle their own page". |

Lucky Strike! To bring you this finer cigarette,
! ^ the makers of Lucky Strike go after fine, light,

j So buy a carton of Luckies today. See for yojir-

are —how much more real deep-down smoking
i enjoyment they give you. Yes, smoke a Lucl^y!
It’s a finer, milder, more enjoyable cigarette!
RAYMOND W. CRUTCHFIELD of ReitUvIlU, N. C.,
veteran tobacco warehouseman, says: "Year
after year, I’ve seen the makers of Luckies buy
fine, ripe leaf that makes one great smoke!’*
"Crutch” has smoked Luckies for 20 yetirs.Here’s
