Harper Clifford, Newstrom and
White, swung a 6-0 win over I AF.
Airmen stars were Hanson, Ze-
rano and Bremberry.
A 75-yard sprint by Martinez for
a TD, was one of the highlights in
B QMC’s 12-0 victory over A CAC.
The other TD came on a pass from
Hirtk to Bredtheur. Maxwell was
like a rock in the B QMC line while
Lockhard and Edwards were strong
for coast artillery men.
A Vets took the measure of D
FA by the tune of 13-0. Galla,
Simpson and Shultze were instru
mental in the Vet win. M. Dacis,
Bill Bethea and C. L. Ross fought

Godfathers,” “She Wore a Yellow

His current production, “Rio
Grande,” is the first Argosy re

Ford, incidentally, can take cre
dit for setting up both his pro
posed co-travelers in their current
careers.
Lovely Maureen O’Hara had
been acting long before she met
Ford, but the starring role in his
“How Green Was My Valley”
was her final boost to Hollywood
stardom. He chose her for the
part about a year after she came
to this country from England.
Born in Dublin, Ireland, she
made her first stage appearance
at the age of five and a radio de
but as a 12-year-old. At 14 she
enrolled in the well-known Abbey
Theatre School where her talented
acting indirectly won her a first
screen appearance in “Jamaica
Inn.”
Her success in this initial role
won her a bid to come to America
in 1941 to play the leading role
Steen Appoints
Troop Committees
New committee assignments for
College Station’s Boy Scout Troop
411 have been announced by Troop
Chairman Ralph W. Steen.
All committee members are par
ents of boys in the troop, of which
Andy Salis is scoutmaster. Steen
is ex-officio member of all com
mittees.
The list announced by Steen is
as follows: transportation, Robert
H. Fletcher, chairman, Grin G.
Helvey, and Don Burchard; activ
ities, J. Gordon Gay, chairman, Hel
vey, and I. Dahlberg; publicity,
Burchard, H. W. Barlow, and Buch
anan; finance, Helvey, chairman,
Spencer J. Buchanan, and Gay,
advancement, Buchanan, chairman,
Burchard, Dahlberg, summer camp,
Barlow, chairman, Gay, and Fletch
er; and membership, Dahlberg,
chairman, Fletcher, and Barlow.
in “The Hunchback of Notre
Dame.” Ford signed her for his
film shortly thereafter.
An eight year film career has
found her in straight drama, high
comedy and fantasy. Her current
appearance in “Rio Grande” is as
the wife of John Wayne.
The familiar Wayne very di
rectly owes his screen start to
director Ford. The six-foot-four
man with the slow drawl was,
like his discoverer, a prop-man
when Ford boosted him to a
dramatic career.
Bom Marion Michael Morrison
at Winterset, Iowa, John landed in
Los Angeles at an early age and
set about to become a high school
football hero and a debating champ.
Later, attending the University of
Southern California on a scholar
ship, he became a star Trojan tack
le.
It was during summer vacations
that he worked as a prop-man at
Fox studios and struck up an ac
quaintance with Ford. Ford induced
a friend to cast Wayne as the top
role in “The Big Trail,” a none-
too-successful undertaking. It was
a start, though, and led to later
lesser pictures and a lead in the
Republic “Three Mesquiteers” ser
ies in 1933.
Ford stepped back into the pic
ture in 1939 to borrow the strap
ping lad for lead in the Aca
demy Award Winner, “Stage
coach.” With success thus won,
Wayne went on to such notables
as “Reap the Wild Wind,” “They
Were Expendable,” “Fort Apa
che,” and “She Wore a Yellow
Ribbon.”
Last year’s “Sands of Iwo Jima”
won him a nomination for the Aca
demy Award. In his current “Rio
Grande’ role Wayne is Col Yorke
of the U. S. Cavalry. The picture
is set in Texas.
The Military Ball appearance
will afford each of the Hollywood
trio a first look at Aggieland.

Aggies
(Continued from Page 3)
come quite a way this season, but as they turn into (he final
lap, the picture hasn’t seemed to change a bit. Rice looms as
another “sleeper”—you know, like Baylor—and Texas still
has Memorial Stadium.
But this is what worries us.
When A&M gained Williamson’s
ninth spot on October 18th we
wrote that “The taste of ninth posi
tion is sweet but it is also some
thing to worry about.
In weeks past such ‘favorites’ of
PRW as Notre Dame, UCLA, and
Michigan State have fallen along-
the wayside. Going into games
highly favored, these teams have
emerged just another loser.”
October 24th saw the Aggies
move to eighth place and a few
days later they were upset by Bay
lor.
Will Aggies Slip Again?
Now since then, such other Wil
liamson “favorites” as Washington,
Stanford, Vanderbilt, Rice, Michi
gan, Pennsylvania, Miami, Tenn
essee and Wisconsin have all slip
ped from his big ten.
Again A&M is faced with a
seemingly inferior team, and again
the Maroon and White has reached
high pinnacles to become over-
Whelming favorites against Rice.
The situation is shaping up exactly
the same way as it was three
weeks ago, but there is one dis
tinction this time—Williamson will
have to keep A&M among the big-
boys whether he likes it or not.
Like so many great teams the
Aggies had to be bitten before they
realized the dog wasn’t dead, but
again like so many great teams,
from here out A&M is ready to re
spect the animal until that last
breath is drawn.

not follow Gray’s suggestions in
every detail, he probably will fol
low the recommendations in a gen
eral way.
Then when the new Congress—
elected last week—opens up shop
next January, Mr. Truman will sub
mit to it his economic and military
spending programs for the future
or, at least, for the next year.
Rough Going Ahead
This program of the President’s
seems certain to get a rough going
over in the new Congress which is
almost evenly balanced between
Democrats and Republicans.
Already there is quite a lot of
wondering what the new Congress
will do about continuing, or in
creasing, economic and military aid
for Europe, and economic aid for
other parts of the country.
You can get set now for the
deluke of bickering, debates, state
ments, and conflicts. It will last
for months. It seems safe to say
this country’s whole future will be
wrapped up in the decision which
Congress makes, sometime next
spring or summer, after months of
talk.

Community Chest
Drive Progresses
“The 1950 Community Chest
drive is progressing as smoothly
as expected,” H. G. Johnson, chair
man of the drive, said today.
“As yet we have not tabulated
the amount turned in” he said, “be
cause all of the solicitors have not
turned in their initial contributions.
I feel sure our goal of $11,000 will
be surpassed.”
This year there will be no door-
to-door solicitations. Local resi
dents and business men will be
contacted to let them know where
to turn in their donations.
Chest contribution material was
turned over to college department
heads who in turn distributed it
among members of their depart
ments:
“I am proud of the work already
done by our staff,” Johnson said,
“and I’m sure they will continue
to do such work throughout the
remainder of the drive,”
This year’s campaign ends Wed
nesday, Nov. 15.
“We feel it is still the responsi
bility of the community to see
that the drive goes over the top
because the community is the one
that receives the benefits of the
Chest,” Johnson added.
Teachers to Meet
Officers of the County State
Teachers Association will be elect

awarded to the holder of the lucky
number program during- the show.
Three posters were placed on the
south side of College Station yes
terday afternoon after the judging
of a poster contest held in the
Elementary School. There were
winners in grades one through
five.
Winning Posters
The five winning Pet Show pos
ters were drawn by Judy Mills,
James Baldauf, and Tamara Lee
Richardson, first-grade; Jay Pruitt
second-grade; Terry Curran, third-
grade; Robert Parsons, fourth-
grade; and John Bennett Hamner,
fifth-grade.
Hot dogs and cold drinks will be
sold at the show. Concession stands
will be arranged in and around
Tiger Field, said Ray Berry, con
cessions manager.
Judging of entries will follow
the parade scheduled for 6:45 p. m.
The judging of large, long-haired
pure-bred dogs, over 20 lbs, will
start the contest.
Short-Hair Dogs Follow
Large, short-haired pure-bred
dogs, over 20 lbs., follows, after
which small, long and short-haired
pure-bred dogs will be judged. The
small dogs must weigh less than
20 pounds.
After the pure-bred dogs come
the “Heinz Variety”, of which the
large, long-haired dogs will be
judged first, then the large short-
haired ones.
Small, long-haired Heinz Var
iety dogs will be next followed by
those of the small, short-haired
Heinz Variety group.
Cats, pure-bred, “just plain
cats,” and “alley-cat” judging fol
low the dog exhibit. After the cats,
all kinds and types of rabbits will
be shown, and then the animals
which come under the heading of
“miscellaneous.”
Skunks, birds, fish, turtles and
other such pets enter this class.
A special judging for pets weigh
ing over 100 pounds precedes the
special tricks event which closes
the show. All pets are eligible to
enter the special tricks event which
will consist of demonstrations.
Set Wednesday
Instruction in rodent era
dication will be given in a
meeting Wednesday morning
at 8 a. m. in Room 11 of the
Civil Engineering Building,
Col. H. L. Boatner, chairman of
the Sanitary Board, announced.
Representatives of departments
of the College, business establish
ments, and other interested persons
are requested to attend the short
meeting.
Rat poison has been obtained and
will be supplied at no cost. Appli
cation of the poison and results
will be supervised and checked by
L. E. Winder, Sanitary Inspector
of the College.
Residents of the City of College
Station who need rat bait will be
able to obtain it free of charge at
the City Office.
A previous campaign last May
was very successful, but careful
follow-up is necessary for the rat
eradication campaign to be effec
tive, Col. Boatner said. The eradi
cation program was originally
started because rapid increase in
rats was becoming a menace to the
health of College Station residents.
The success of the present cam
paign will be negligible if the rats
are exterminated in one area and
allowed to inhabit other areas, and
thus return later to their old
haunts, Col. Boatner continued.
