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

can now marry.
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.”

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.

Rangerettes Drill at Half
(Continued from Page 1)
Kyle Field cinder track at 2:30.
The showing of the Aggie track
team this afternoon should afford
the public an appreciable insight
as to how the Cadets will shape up
in the 1951 season.
At 3 p.m. will be the final meet
ing of A&M’s baseball team with a
Brooke Medics nine of San Anto
nio.
Rounding out the full week-end
of athletic events on the Aggie
campus will be the annual battle
between the Maroons and Whites
teams, composed from the ranks
of football spring training candi
dates.
Harry Stiteler, head football
coach, has divided his squad of 70
men into two teams and with kick
off time slated for 7:30, fans of
this area and visiting students
should be in for a real treat in the
annual headknocking exercises.
The Intra-squad game will af
ford fans an opportunity to see
how the new quarterback, Roy Dol
lar of Del Mar Junior College, com
pares with lettermen Dick Garde-
mal and Delmar Sikes and squad-
man Ray Graves.
The coaches have been stressing
the work on the freshmen, too, in
an effort to get them ready to fit
into the two teams’ lineups for the
first real scrimmage.
Rangerettes Here
At the halftime, in the grid con
test, fans will see the well known
Kilgore Rangerettes from Kilgore
JC. A galaxy of precision drilled
young ladies, the Rangerettes boast
of some of Texas’ most beautiful
women within their ranks.
The annual Sports Day is spon
sored by the T Association through
the cooperation of the A&M Ath
letic Department and other col
lege organizations.
Fans can see both the football
and the baseball games for $1.00
and all other events are free. Du
cats may be purchased in the Ath
letic office, the rotunda of the
Academic Bldg., or from any mem
ber of the T Association.

Set at SMU
(Continued from Page 4)
compete in the SWC swimming
meet in Austin. The Ag-gies will
come up against TU, Baylor and
the National Collegiate Athletic
Association will sponsor a meet in
SMU for conference honors.
Also in Austin, March 29-30,
competition will be held in
the TU pool. Seven or eight of
the more outstanding Aggie swim
mers will go to Austin.
Four A&M meets so far this
year have resulted in a 2-2 rec
ord for the Aggies. They beat
Baylor, 55-20, and Northwestern
Louisiana State, 42-33; lost to
SMU, 30-54, and to Oklahoma, 30-
45.
The Sooners cleaned up in Col
lege Station this year when they
broke pool records in the 50 yard
freestyle, 200 yard backstroke, and
200 yard breaststroke events.
The Aggies came in second in
the SWC relays in Houston earlier
this year.
