Newspaper Page TextPage 6 THE BATTALION Friday, March 2, 1951 Senior Flay Ends Happily Higher Brass (Continued from Page 3) Ozias Grubbs, an elderly farmer, has conspired with the hired girl to convince the neighbor hood and his “half-daft” wife the ghosts of their two children have returned from the dead. Both died because of the tyran- ical Belle Winthrop and have re turned to seek their revenge. The lights go out, Belle Win- throp’s body is discovered, and a murderer is on the prowl. Who can it be, the group asks each other ? “I warned her not to come here of all nights, the swamp thing got her,” declares the elderly Mrs. Grubbs. But it wasn’t the “swamp thing” at all, but rather “Les,” Belle Winthrop’s lawyer, who has stolen some bonds from her and is on the verge of being discovered. Now he must kill all the wit nesses and fly to South America. He is about to launch a “Cook es capade” by killing them all and hiding them in the quick sands of the swamp, when Beaumont Win throp disarms him. The curtain closes on a happy group, except for “Les.” The hate ful Belle Winthrop is no more, the Grubbs won’t have to leave, all the staff has a share in her large estate, and Beaumont Winthrop WhaVs Cookin’ LUTHERAN WALTHER CLUB, Saturday, 7:30 p. m.

Even the frightened Lovetta Wattles, who first saw a ghost while removing some bags from the car, and ran down the path screaming, says with relief, “Geep- ers, creepers, I though we were gone goslets.” Bobby Williams was stage man ager for the production.

The group, in co-operation with A&M’s three TISA officers, will decide this school’s vote on issues brought up at the convention. Representing the Senate to the Bryan Chamber of Commerce will be Doyle Griffin, Bill Cornish, Golfers — (Continued from Page 5) and 66 to beat par five strokes and move into the number one position. Guerrero, senior P. E. major from Mission, will also be heavily depended upon to match skill with the UH linksters. Also qualifying in the elimina tions were Johnnie Barrett, Hollis Baker, and J. C. Fletcher. Barrett, one of the outstand ing freshmen golfers last year and winner of the National Caddy Tournament in 1947, presented the third best record with 301. Baker was fourth with 303, fol lowed by Fletcher who will be the fifth man on the cadet squad. This year’s team will go forth without the services of Miller Bar ber, who has been ruled ineligible for athletic activities. Barber Victim Barber, sophomore business stu dent from Texarkana, Texas, has been a victim of circumstances ever since he broke into the golf lineup last year in the first eli mination trials. As a freshman he was hampered by difficulties which kept him from competition for the majority of the year, and now eligibility has ap peared on the scene and again he is barred from competition. Reports rumor that the UH team is of makeshift origin, probably organized on the spur of the mom ent. This should prove an ad vantage to the Aggies who are in top shape. Last year the Aggies split a two game series with the Houston ians, downing them at College Sta tion, but bowing out later at Hous ton. Wilman “Pusher” Barnes, Bill Moss and Tom Jewell. Selection of the group came on a discussion of alleged unfair charges made by the La Salle ho tel in dealing with several A & M Freshman when their class dance was postponed. The students had paid for the rooms in advance, Griffin said, and were allowed only a half refund. Reports on negotiations with the University of Texas student body for repayment of clothing losses suffered by A&M students at the football game in Austin were made by Dan Davis. He explained that committees from the two schools had agreed to pay damages for losses suffered by each school. A&M has charged the loss of considerable govern ment clothing and the University asked payment for damages done by unidentified persons who paint ed A&M signs on the campus. A suggestion that the Senate initiate action for selection of a mascot came from Senator “Mon ty” Montgomery. He was named to chair a “further study” com mittee composed of Duane Van- denberg, Autrey Fredericks, Tom Jewell, Karl Meyers, George Ger- mond, and Lloyd Manjeot. Furthering plans for the Spring Campus Chest drive the Senate ad ded Bob Dunn and Bill Dalston to the Campus Chest committee to assist in implementing the drive.
