If any of us knows anyone at
SMU we are forgetting it for this
week. Also UT, TCU, Rice and the
rest, must take a rear perch.

gies on our own campus. For those
scheduling Corps Trip as a one-day
affair, the college will serve bi’eak-
fast before dawn Saturday and send
the sorties to “Big D” in special
busses.
For you Ayjize bringing vehi
cles to the weekend party, please
watch out for Tessies. A recent
campus survey pointed out that
we are careless about observing
step lights and will jaywalk at
any given time and place.
Freshmen scattered and tumbled
Monday as a few seniors—come-
lately intelligentsia—sprinted to
the Dean's office to apply for Feb
ruary diplomas.
Come to think of it, that’s only
two and a half months till they
graduate. Such luck! They must
have worn Confederate pennies in
their shoes since first sighting the
far end of dormitory row.
This is also “Study for Your
Mid-Term Final” Week. The girls
are active studying and revising
notes, making a first reading of

buying black ink with which to
border the pages of letters home.
It is the week of black coffee, as
pirin and shaggy nerves.
Since the onslaught of the
norther last week Tessi has
fought her way into the closet
and tossed out winter clothing—
rabbit-lined T shirts, rope-knitted
sweaters and linoleum wind-
breakers. We’ve tried to wear
these garments since school
started, but the heat wave was
just too heavy.
More trouble erupts from Stod
dard’s elevator, a self-operating
mechanism with personality. This
personality consists of stopping be
tween floors and refusing to budge.
When two Stoddardites are trapped
in the conveyance, the situation is
quickly remedied since one can
boost the other up to open the
trap door.
But if the load is singular, she
can only press the emergency but
ton to inform the office of her
plight, then settle down to read
her pocket edition of “Henrietta
Stromgold, Girl Riot Squad.”
Meanwhile, the office calls a
repairman out to coax the ele
vator from its pouting. As often
as not, he sends to Dallas for
more help. It’s a long wait while
classmates stand on the lloor
and harmonize on funeral dirges.
Thought you’d like to know what
impresses a freshman Tessie most
on her first trip to an Aggie foot
ball game.
Freshmen returning from the
A&M-Arkansas game agreed that
they will remember longest the tra
ditional kiss Aggies give their dates
after each A&M touchdown.
Score: A&M 42, Arkansas 14.

A member of the 1948 Olympic
wrestling squad from. Oklahoma

cal education from Oklahoma A&M
in June of 1949.

Is Fire Petition Justified?

said, this figure is, in our estima
tion a bare minimum. Each man
would receive roughly $2,500 a
year, amounting to a total expen
diture for the city of $7,500.

in the fifestation. We have no idea
what the capacities of that building
are for providing housing, so add
the cost of constructing a place for
the nien to stay.
Need we say more? The tax
payer will have to pay for these
expenditures in increased taxes.
Everyone likes to have the city
provide them with up to date facil
ities, but they sometimes forget
that there is always the trouble-
| some question of money.
The most important obstacle to
consider in employing a full time
crew at the fire department is the
possibility that the college, who
owns all the equipment, may object
i to the idea.
Certainly the people who signed
the petition don’t expect the City
I of College Station to finance a
j complete fire department of its
' own. It is great to have those
thingfe, but the agriculturists at
A&M have failed to find a way to
grow money on trees—so far.
The committee has our blessings
for the work which they will take
Upon, themselves in the morning.
The job is certainly a big one if
they can find a way to provide
College Statu on with a more effi
cient firt department than we al
ready have and still not cause the
tax-payer to moan and groan about
increased taxes.

The lad in this picture has been into some kind
of mischief, and his dad has called him “on the
carpet.” His drooping head and downward gate
suggest a consciousness of wrongdoing.
These are always tense moments in parent and
child relations, because they involve a meeting of
personalities in a situation which might easily
serve to strengthen or weaken the parental tie.
This is no occasion for parental anger, arrogance,
or bluster. The situation calls for a sympathetic
understanding, a calm appraisal, and good judg
ment based on the moral and spiritual elements in
human conduct.
Parents need the wisdom of God and spiritual
guidance in dealing with the behavior problems of
their children. Mistakes made in these circum
stances often lead to unfortunate results.
The counsel of the Church and the inspiration
of the Scriptures is offered to every parent who
seeks divine guidance in meeting the responsibilities
of parenthood.
