"Women? No, It’s the heat! It
just can’t be! 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

to its reclining position, my eyes

my mission was once again clear

women and, if not prepared, I
was at least eager.

vant of his subject. 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.

While some were young and inti

Some were young and immature,
others were quite mature. Some
were friendly, while others were
just out and out wolfish or flirty.
One small, tom-boyish girl was
very frank and gay. An inflicting
brunette appeared rather bored
and bitter about life in general.
The majority were very pleas
ing and cooplerative.
With all the vital statistics safe
ly tucked away in my little black

The first question I asked was,.
“What would you think of at

Army Hospital
Use (or Medics
President W. R. 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. Such;
an arrangement ‘ has been 'worked
successfully between the Univer
sity ,of Minnesota and the Mayo
Hospitals in Rochester, Minn., and

“the Miracle of the Southwest
Conference football season happen
ed here this bright Saturday after
noon in full view of 31,000 spec
tators as Texas A&M College’s
much-beaten young team rose up
to tie mighty Southern Methodist
University 27-27.
“It was a sophomore shpw for
the courageous Aggies who,
though they had won Only one
game and tied two in 22, still were
fired with hope and ambition. They
were tremendously improved ....
"This was not a piece-meal SMU
team. The Mustangs had their ab
sentees because of injuries, but
Rote, Doak Walker, and Dick Mc
Kissack were very much in the
ball game . . . .
“A&M gained nothing but glory
(for a conference title bid), but
that was tremendous for the “new
deal” team under Coach Harry
Stiteler ...”
Waco Tribune Herald
"Rambling Robert Smith, a bull
dozing sophomore fullback, led
Texas A&M College to a breath
less 27 to 27 tie with mighty
Southern Methodist today in the
Southwest’s greatest upset of the
season ...
“Bob Shaeffer, who hadn’t kicked
an extra point in three previous
conference games, calmly booted
his third ifi a row, matching Walk
er’s effort in this department.
“He (Smith) shed enemy tack-
lers like a duck’s back resists
water, and only sheer weight of
numbers finally halted him.”

“Texas A&M rose from the

“Out of football’s graveyard rose
the dead men of Texas A&M. En
tombed for weeks and shrouded in
gridiron losses they came to life
Saturday with a staggering and
brilliant exhibition on Kyle Field.
They tied the Southerjn Methodist
Mustangs, eighth ranking team in
the nation, 27 to 27, before 31,800
persons who cheered the resurrec
tion ....
“There was no fluke . about the
Aggies’ great upset. They played
heroically, particularly Smith and
a standout defensive center from
Dallas, Jim Flowers, a former
teammate of Doak Walker at High
land Park High . , .
“Walkeri was his old self Sat
urday, but neither he nor Rote, nor
Folsom, nor the rest could with
stand the Aggie rally . . .
“Smith, almost alone, paraded
at the head of two of A&M’s
three last-half touchdown marches.
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. It carried them
from the field, a time-honored way
of honoring football heros back in
the twenties, but. something of a
novelty today . . ,
"There could he no alibis from
Southern Methodist supporters.
Their Mutsangs played a wrinder-
ful game, The Aggies, for Satur
day, were just as good.”
