Satur^^iy night we sat in Guion Hall
and heard one of the most enjoyable con-
c'erts presented on the campus this year.
The Aggleland Orchestra and the Singing
Cadets put on a one-hour-plus perform

words Of praise from more than 1,000
persons who were in the audience.

the first time a new arrangement of each

Lookin’ Back
From the Battalion Files
of 15 Years Ago
A 1935 Battalion reported that
Texas; University was trying to in
stall in ROTC unit. TU officials
had requested a cavalry troop and
had been turned down. They then
turned their efforts- toward ob
taining a field artillery outfit.
Student opinion at forty acres
was against ROTC. A two column
headline in The Daily Texas said,
“Student Disapproval Mounts
Against Idea of Artillery Unit.”
Austin YMCA and YWCA lead
ers and several University church
es also joined the student cam
paign to discourage adoption of
any ROTC units.
A far-sighted' Battalion editor
ialist in 1935 commented on ef
forts of the National Student Peace
Mobilisation organization to per
suade American youth to refuse
to participate In any form of mili
tary training, While approving all
effoitk to preserve peace among,
nations of the world, the IDilly
editor cautioned, ‘’Don't dissuade
the young man of American from
learning to carry • rifle or order
a company, Willmut a defense we
as a nation are lout, and the
