Christmas holidays were short
ened this year at the request of
* “good number" of students!
hat was the report given the
Student Senate by its executive
imittee last night at the stu-
t governing body’s regular
monthly meeting in the YMCA.
The senate chambers resounded
with :a gasp of astonishment when
L. E. Carroll, Dorm 14 -senator,
told the group that Dean. M. T.
Harrington reported that students
were responsible for the short
Christmas holidays .
‘'The dean said that a ‘good num
ber’ of students had asked for
shorter Christmas vacations,” Car-
roll explained, ‘‘because they for
got the things they learned" if the
holidays extended over long per
iods. (Editor’s note—The Battal
ion had absolutely nothing to do
with this, believe it or not)
Among the suggestions, for the
"worried" students hear# ill the
senate chamber last night was
that they take their books home
with them. No hames were men-
*■ tioned in connection with Carroll’s
report.
The senators immediately made
a recommendation of their own
to be i put before the Academic
Council. A resolution that the
‘Christmas holidays extend from
December 17 through January 2
was made by Tom Calhoun, Le§att
lawmaker. It received the unani
mous approval of the senate and
will be transmitted to the Aca
demic Council for consideration.
Tills resolution was also intend
ed by the senate to serve as a
guide for setting next yearhi holi
day schedule.
Busy Evening
The vacation problem was the
main item on a crowded senate
ngenda. In addition to the holi
day suggestion, the student gov
erning body approved a proposed
Campus Chest designed to reduce
the number of solicitations for
funds on the campus, asked - for
a report of aH the money funds on
the campus, and pledged Itjs sup
port for a Placement Office spon
sored “Job Clinic".
The Campus .Chest, a college
version of a community chest, was
reported on by I. E. Montgomery,
Milner senator.
A committee, which Montgomery
-headed, had made a study of com*
munity chests in relation to col
lege campuses. The committee
had visited "Texas Unlvfrsitjy to
look at the workings of that
school’s fund .raising activity
group, and on the basis of its find
ings, had drawn up a report which
was submitted to the senate and
approved last night.
Campus Chest Organization
The proposed A&M Campus
Chest will be supervised |t»y the
Student Senate. A chest chair
man will be named, and he will
head an executive committee com
posed of the chairmen of five
sub-committees.
The publicity sub-committee,
which wilF be' headed by Floyd
Henk and Charles Kirkham, will
have charge of all chest public-
f ity carried on through newspapers,
r V radios, posters, hand bills, and
r . speakers.
The special events committee,
which will consist of three mem
bers and a chairman, will plan a
fund raising dance. The possibil
ity of a Quion Hall showing of the
A&M movie, "We’ve Never Been
Licked" will also be investigated
by the special events sub-commit
tee. . ?
Four subdivisions of the solicits
tions committee were authorized.
One will work with the corps area,
a second with the non-military stu
dents, a third with the married
veterans and day students, and
the remaining persons will work at
the‘Annex.
V, ! Insignia Committee
The insignia sub-committee will
have the task of designing an ap-
,4 propriate insignia for the campus
chest drive.
r The fund research and distribu
te nsub-committee will have $
two-fold purpose. It will decide
the ultimate goal of the drive, anf
will also screen applications for
money from worthy groups. This
group Will portion out all, the
funds collected in the Campus
Chest.
Keith Allsup, president of the
senate, reported that the fund
raising drive could probably not
be started before March 1.
Magruder Reports
- Jim Magruder, Dorm 8 senator,
asked the senate to consider re
questing all dormitories to donate
their surplus funds to the Memor
ial Student Center at the end of
the year. An arrangement could
be worked through Student Activi
ties, Magruder'said, whereby sur
plus dorm funds could be earmark
ed for MSC use after all damage
charges had been paid during the
summer.-.,
Keith Allsup told the senate, that
they and the other students and
ox-students would be the men who
would benefit Jrom any improve
ments to the MSC.
Chester B. Stroud reported on
a proposed "Job Clinic" to be
sponsored by the Placement Of
fice. The clinic would be set up
by the office, Stroud said, to coun
sel students on prospective jobs.
What a student could expect in
a particular job, what was
ted .of him, and how to make the
best impression on a prospective
employer would be included in the
clinic services. Stroud told the
senate that W. R. Horsley, direc
tor of the Placemen tOffice, had
said his office would handle all
details of the clinic. Prominent
men in industry throughout; the
nation would be invited to speak
at the clinic, Stroud said.
The senate voted unanimously to
suport the clinic. Four men {were
named to help arrange details.
They were Frank Cleland, C. B.
Stroud, Harry Raney, and Tom
Calhoun.
Book Bannlngi
The posslbilty of banning j "ob
scene and suggestive" literature
from local newsstands was discus
sed before the senate by L. E..
Montgomery, senator from Milner.
Montgomery reported that many
of the newsstands at the North
Gate and others areas adjacent to
the campus had on display low

grade literature not fit for sale.
He asked the senate to prganlze a
committee to Investigate the pos
sibility of putting restrictions on
sale of such material.
Several senators voiced the opin
ion that such action was not with
in the province of the student gov
erning group, and that It wap ille
gal interference in private busi
ness. After considerable discus
sion, the senate defeated a motion
to form a committee to investigate
the matter.
PHT Degrees
Awarding a certificate to p Vet
eran’s wife at the same tinjte the
veteran received his diploma was
tlie final item for discussion at
the senate meeting. The certifi
cate, known at other schools as a
PHT or "Putting Hubby Through"
degree, will be investigated by a
committee of married senators.
During the discussion of the
PHT degree, Bob Sykes, Dorm 4,
thought the idea could.be tarried
through even further, j "If .we’re
going to give away that kind of de
gree,’’ Sykes said, "how about one
for Fathers? They sweat us out
just as much as the wives do their
husbajids.”

Gig ’em, Barber College!
€ut His Lip, Rip His Jaw, :
Leave His Face, Raw, Raw!)
BY BILL BILLINGSLEY
Two power-laden, undefeated, un
tied college teams will clash on
Kyle Field today at 5 p. m. in Col
lege Station’s own bowl game.
It will be the third annual Press
Bowl, with an ink-stained squad
of Battalion staffmen meeting a
glue-jspattered crew from the Ag-
gieland 1950 for the coveted titles
of Press Bowl champion and out
standing squad of student publi
cations.
Played each year as an enter-
tainment feature for the publica
tions staff, the game is reaching
greater proportions with each suc
cessive replaying. r
Rules of the contest are those
of regular intramural flag football,
and I the intramural department
each year furnishes the necessary
flags, identifying shirts, and refer
ees. A few variations, however, al
ways creep in. f / 1
The 1947 opening of the classic
saw the first game go to the Ag-
gieland, squad (then the Longhorn)
in a close, hard-fought 7-0 melee
in which both teams found it hard
keeping within the bounds of flag
blocking.-They were prone to lean
toward the old flying wedge style
caving the ground early, sus-
ng flight as long as possible,
attempting to create in their
nents a yearning for the old
typewriter chair.
The Aggieland squad accused the
Batt group in that game of bring
ing in circulation men to whom
had not been formally intro- glasses,
duced, and the newsmen retaliated
by writing a detailed account of the
outstanding and spirited play of
their staffers, and only casually
mentioning in the last paragraph
the embarrassing matter of who
won. Lmghorn editor Tommy John,
quarterbacked his team, nattily at
tired in foam rubber shoulder pads,
and was the offensive star of the
day. Ball and Byntyn, two of the
circulation managers in question,
were the inside-outside combina
tion for the Battalion, and Don
Engelking, San Antonio’s gift to
the sports department, cleverly
stopped the first offensive march
of the Aggielanders by hiding the
ball carrier’s flag.
That year the struggling publi
cations athletes were given the far-
therest and most Undeveloped foot
ball field in the athletic area, de
scribed by one of the annual's
squadmen as "too close to Uncle
Ed’s for determined and devoted
play. Attempting to justify his
issuance of the undesirable field,
C. G. "Digger” White muttered
something under his breath about
"not wanting to undo the entire
intramural program i none care
free afternoon".
Last year, however, the playing
field was moved into the better
sodded playing areas (with grass
on the yard lines), and White and
his henchman Barney “Second-
Bounce” Welch appeared as assis
tant referees. White was clad
snugly in his long handles, carry
ing a white cane and wearing dark

Welch wore his Bermuda walk
ing shorts, puttees, and carried
a fifty-yard roll of scrimmage line
and an oversize .45 caliber pistol
for signaling the end of the quar
ters. The two "officials," suc
ceeding brilliantly in their calling
of the game, had just penalized
the Batt squad to the Navasota
road when Welch’s gun discharged,
making White’s trusty seeing-eye
bird dog gun shy. All three re
tired from, the field in a fit of
nervous confusion.
After finding out who they were
playing, the two teams fought
fiercely to a 19-0 victory for the
Aggielanders. Fred “Universal
Hips” Hambright, dressed decori-
ously in knee-length, fireman red
stockings, scored two of the touch
downs and Earl "Rambling’’ t Rose
passed for the third marker. The
outstanding Battalion play was
characterized by Charlie Murray,
a substitute tackle, who looked
up from the sidelines, and the ba
nana he was munching; and asked,
"Is somebody playing football
here?”
With that illustration past,inter
est is high among the staffers of
the two publications on the eve
of the contest, now honorably lo
cated on Kyle Field. SeveVal of
them have even asked when and
where the game is to be held.
Although the rival coaches have
n’t turned in complete rosters as
yet, many great gridiron names are
expected to emeige from the game.
PCS Students!
Cover World,
Survey Finds
There are A&M graduates
in 26 different states, four
foreign countries, Alaska, and
Honolulu taking Post Gradu^
ation Studies, according to
V. M. Faires, head of Post Gradu
ation Studies.
Those most distant from A&M
are in Japan, Germany, and Aus
tria, although' 70% of those en
rolled are in Texas.
In a breakdown by age groups,
it was found that 72% are under
the age of 30, the median age be
ing between 26 and 30. As might be
expected, Faires said, about Sz per
cent graduated in 194T, 194$, and
1949, although there are tem en-
rollees over 40 years of age,, so
the program appeals to some of the
older graduates as well as the
young ones. The earliest graduate
in Post Graduation Studies was
in the Class of 1925.
Taken by schools, about 12 per
cent graduated from the Schools
of Arts and Sciences, about 11
percent from the School of Agri
culture and about 76' percerft from
the School of Engineering.; There
are three PCS students frbm the
School of Veterinary Meditine.
Engineering graduates ore dis
tributed 'about In proportion to the
number of graduates in epch de
partment, with the exception be
ing those from the MaqE De
partment, which has the highest
percentage, about 10 percent of all
graduates.
.Three graduates are on their
third PGS cotarse. Six others al
ready have masters degrees.
