Because every boy has
equal opportunities to make
the most of his abilities.

At A&M
There may not be many
“misses” here at A&M, this
being a non-coeducational
institution, but many boys
are “hits” with their
friends, classmates and oth
er students. That's because
they took advantage of
their opportunities.
So tell your home - town
friends about opportunities
at A&M. Show them what
they have to gain by com
ing to A&M. Then, when
they come, YOU’LL gain,

of all, the NEW STU

FFA to Set Party
At Meeting Tonight
The Collegiate FFA Chapter in
a meeting tonight at 7:15 will de
cide whether to have a banquet or
a barbecue and the date to have it.
The seniors will go to Houston
on a field trip sponsored by the
Agricultural Department of the
Houston Chamber of Commerce
either March 21 or 31. One of
the two dates will be decided on
by the group.

winners.
A small Negro entertainers,
who could dance and do panto-
mine of records* such as “Open
the Door, Richard” and “Temp-
tayshun,” supplied the most in
the way of entertainment.
Betsy Ross, the dynamic lady of
song and dance, gave a good husky
rendition of “Summertime” and
“Just One of Those Things.”
But leaving the seats of Guion
for an all night stand at Sbisa the
Cadets and their dates entered the
West doors, where they were pre
sented with leather bound souvenir
programs. Upon arrival on the
dance floor they saw Sbisa at its
gaudiest—a parachute suspended
from the ceiling, red, white, and
blue streamers draped around the
lights and fans.
Flags of the United Nations
were hung around the wall and
palmetto plants placed around the
border of the dance floor added to
the color of the dance.
Beckner’s band played slow
danceable music throughout the
Ball. However his faster ones were
almost as appreciated as the slow
ones. Reminiscent of Cugat’s visit
to A&M two years ago, Beckner
gave a mass dance lesson and the
militarymen did “Le Raspa” or
Herr Schmitd.”
“One thing you can really say
for Beckner. He played what peo
ple wanted to hear. They re
quested, and he played the re
quest,” says Jack Cochran, senior
business major.
Other people remarked that
Sbisa was too crowded, hut from
the look on their faces, no one
seemed to care.
“A mighty good dance, hut kinda
like sardines,” said one of Vanity
Fair winners.
“A mighty good place to give
a show. A really fine place. Here’s
where I’d send my son,” said Beck
ner.
