Rut I never saw an Aggie who looked like this. A cool breeze in July? Gads, this can’t be College Station. “Could this be the heaven that all Aflvies dream of? Am I alive?” As I stood asking myself these questions, the answer came in the not-too-pleasant voice of a mem-1 ber of the fairer sex. "Say, cowboy (I was wearing my boots and levis), watch where you’re going,” c / My wayward wits (the whole half) returned to me as I mum bled ft quick apology and regained by composure. My tongue returned to its reclining position, my eyes to their sockets. The thoughts of my mission was once again clear ih my mind.- j My assignment was to poll women and, if not prepared, I was at least eager.

Since mV sub ject was the female, where could I be more observing than on the Northwestern University besch? The poll was to be as repre sentative as possible—it’s coin cidental that all of the selectees happened to be nice looking. I used the gentle approaich (I roped them and tied them cown). Naturally, you can’t learn much from a woman by asking her a direct question. So t constructed the questions in A misleadini: way. To judge file value of a selectees answer, onq must know something of their background. I first asked them their age, (This is i, nice thing to know at times). Of the girls polled, the iver- age age was 20 and one half years. : ‘ The girls , ranged in classifica tion from freshmen to graduate students. It seems that the grad uate students gave more thought-* ful and complete answers. Four years of fruitless mate-hinting had probably made them begin to give the problem more than just hopeful thought. Although the girls were, from all parts 'of the counter] the frankest answers came from girls who lived in the southwest Four of the selectees hid ac tually been engaged at ono time during their college careeri. One had been fortunate to tie dowq and hold a husband. A brief description of epch of the girls was included in the back ground data—strictly in the inter est of the poll, of course. There were tall girls, smaljl girls, ales slim girls, and just a lot of girls. Some were blonde, others red headed, and others combination of the two. They were cute, or very cute; attractive or "hubba-hubba.” There were girls with pleasing figures, and then there were the kind that wore French bathing suits. Where one girl was cocky, an other was shy. Where one was undecided, another was prejudiced. r ~ in IllF NOTICE I’! ; ' I ANOTHER SHIPMENT OF 5 ECO NOMATS DOE IN OUR IN OUR STORE NOV. 10 • • • « . ^ Place Your Order Now EASY TERMS j ONLY *179® 5 !

With all the vital statistics safe ly tucked away in my little black book; I got down to the business end of the poll. The first question I asked was,. “What would you think of at tending an all girl’s college?” The various answers to this question will appear in tomorrow’s Battal ion.

Wilite of Baylor University has an nounced affiliation of the U. S. Army’s Brooke General Hospital at San Antonio as a teaching unit of the Graduate School of Baylor University. The affiliation. Dr. White said, came at the request of Major Gen eral E. A. Noyes, commanding gen eral of the Brooke Army Medical Center, and with approval of the Surgeon General of the Army. Dr. Wilby T. Gooch, vice-presi dent of the university and dean of the Graduate School, said that the affiliation is the beginning of a unique plan m which Baylor seeks to encourage study and clinical re search in the field of medicine. Baylor grants thq Master of Sci ence degree to students completing a prescribed course of work in the hospital’s teaching program. Twenty-two members of the Brooke Army Medical staff have been appointed to faculty status in the Baylor Graduate School. The Graduate School dean said, also, th»t Dr. Hardy A. Kemp, director of graduate studies at the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, has been named as dir ector of the affiliated graduate program; in Brooke hospital and inj other institutions which may later seek afiliation with the university’s plan. Trustees Approve Authority for Baylor's expansion into the San Antonio program was voted by the Baptist institution’s trustees in a board meeting at Dal las last week. It adds a fourth: campus—the others being Waco, Dallas, and Houston—to the uni versity’s graduate educational pro-; gram. The M.S. degree in clinical re search also is offered through the Baylor College of Dentistry at Dal las and the Baylor College of Med icine at Houston Baylor offers the Master of Arts degree in the graduate field in its five schools and colleges at Waco. Dr. Gooch said that the affilia tion plan is broad enough to allow similar cooperation with other hos pitals who have teaching programs qualifying under Baylor Graduate School standards. The affiliation arrangement is notjuntried. Dr. Gooch said.

Tacklers fell of his supercharged, tearing body like autumn leaves from a giant oak. On Saturday he was one of the greatest fullbacks of Southwest Conference history, lunging along for 175 yards, an average of more than 7 yards every time he pulled the ball to his side and roared goalward . . . “ The Houston Post “The Aggie Cadet Corps didn’t have to stand in silentj tribute to a bgaten team Saturday, nor sing with saddened hearts . . . “It tumbled out of the stands and mobbed the players that had tied mighty Southern Methodist University 27-27.
