Mrs. Texas A&M? We are seeking through this column the average Texas Aggie wife who will be named Mrs. Texas A&M, honored with her picture in the Battalion, together with a story on her and her family, and presented to the student body on April 27 at an all-school dance. Last wetk we gave a few of the qualifications for our candidates: she must be a student wife; she should have been married for a year or longer; she will have helped her husband in some way during his student days; she should be interested in his major subject and in his planned career. Because a recent survey showed that Aggie couples have 1.3 children per family, the winner may be the mother of at least one ciiild. (This is just a talking point, not an iron-clad rule!) There will, in fact, be no definite regulations for the selection of the winner. Anybody may nominate a candidate.—Husbands are particu larly invited to do/ so. They probably know better than anyone else what roles their wives have played in their schooling. Nominations should be made before Wednesday, April 18. The nominating blank at the bottom of this column may be used, but nomi nations will be acepted in writing or over telephone so long as complete information is given. After .nominations are in this office, question naires will be sent to all candidates. These must be filled in and returned to the chairman of the contest judges, reaching her not later * than 5 p.m. Tuesday, April 24. At that time the panel of judges will meet to select the finalists. The panel of judges themselves will deter mine how they will select the winner from the finalists. Judges will be Mrs. Leigh Crozier, chairman, who has been a resident of Aggieland and a student wife for the past four years; Miss Betty Bolander of the MSC, Clayton Selph, representing The Battalion; Carl Molberg; .Mrs. Margaret Price and Odell Frazier. In case one of the judges or a judge’s wife becomes a nominee, he or she will be disqualified as a judge. * • Among the visitors to the Battalion office on Tuesday afternoon were Chucky Vail, 4-year-old future Aggie football star of Mary and ■ Ira Vail; Bill Skrabanek, three-year-old husky of Dr.* and Mrs. Bob Skrabanek, and five-weeks-old Rhonda Coslett, new addition to the Roger Coslett household. Jack Balderas, tall good-looking brunette graduate student, who this week has revealed his engagement to Dee High recalls his meeting with the pretty Tessie honor student. It was Christmas 1949 in San Antonio and Jack went to a party. There he spied the girl of his dreams. The two will be wed in June and Jack will bring De*- to Aggieland where she will be a brilliant, as well as beautiful, addition to the Aggie wife set. ^ Jim Tom House, just back from his two weeks practice teaching trip to Coleman, is bubbling over about the job he’s just landed. Come June and graduation, Jim will be headed San Angelo-ward where he will be a counsellor at the West Texas Boys Ranch. The job starts June 1, but Jim is hoping to talk his new employers into letting him stay around Aggieland long enough to get that coveted degree on the night of June one. • BACK HOME. Curtis and Darla Harlan, 1950 graduates, will be “hack home” in College Station when they return here for “Curley” to take up his newly won Humble Oil Scholarship. Darla, who formerly held a Civil Service job in Bryan, will have plenty to do at home when the couple move back. Since they were here, young Curtis C. Harlan, Jr. has joined their family. Gordon Doran was handing friends a sad story in the MSC foun tain room about his wife leaving him. “Now just before graduation and state boards when I have a magazine coming out and a dance coining up, Gloria goes home,” Doran said sadly—and we might have taken the bait had we not known both the Dorans. On Friday, a day ahead of schedule, Gloria was back home having cut short her visit with her folks, Dr. and Mrs. N. B. Taylor of. Lampasas, and his folkg, Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Doran of San Saba to return to Aggieland. College newly weds include Dan and Vivian Powers, who are at home at A-7-Wi College View. Vivian, the former Miss Sheffield, ^is a tall blond beauty from Breckenridge. Dan is a junior electrical engineering major. • PART TIME WORK. We enjoyed a visit recently with represen tatives of a national company who were seeking students, student wives, and a few people outside the college for part-time summer work. These are selling jobs, with a good company and with substantial financial remuneration for anyone interested. The ladies left partic ulars in this office. Come by if you’re interested. WEDDING RINGS AND ORANGE BLOSSOMS. Aggie-exes who recently have joined the wedded set include Charles J. Bonnot, ’50, who married Johna Rafferty, former Tessie on March 3. Charles and Johna arc living in Edna. . . . Betty Jean Jennings and A. G. Pinson, ’49, married March 24 in Houston. Mrs. Pinson went to the University of Houston; her husband is a Tau Beta Pi. ... A wedding in George West Saturday united Gus M. Wuest unci, Cecelia Goodman. Fashion note: Charm bracelets, so popular now, can be worn many ways other than around the wrist. When long sleeves hide the bracelet, it can be unlocked and draped between two scatter pins on a pocket, lapel or shoulder. It also is an interesting addition over new spring skirts, draped, watch-chain fashion, from a pocket to the belt. Add to Coslett-Bowden Engagement: The Press Club Ball- , Military Ball weekend in March was the first trip that pert little redhead Marilyn Bowden had ever made to Aggie land. She was the guest of Dave. Both of them enjoyed the weekend so thoroughly that they decided right away to make a permanent deal of being together, have set their wedding date for some time in August, just after • Dave graduates from A&M and before he leaves for serv ice. • OTHER BRIDES-TO-BE include Lulu Lee Gregory and Dan McAnally, ’44 Double E grad. They’ll pledge their troth on Mayj 20 in Quanah. Lulu Lee went to North Texas. . . . Eleanor Margaret Scarborough likes her name so much that she intends to keep it. In June she’ll be wed to Moliere Scarborough, Jr., ’47. She is a senior at TU and he is now with the United States Department of Justice in Philadelphia. • A festive occasion is in store for all Veterinary students and their dates Friday night when the fourth annual banquet and ball of the Junior AVMA will be held in the MSC ballroom. Dinner will begin at 7 p.m. in the ballroom, after which the floor will be cleared and the Aggieland Orchestra, under the direction of Bill Turner, will take over for dancing. The vets are keeping secret the name of their prin cipal speaker. This annual banquet and ball was begun when the pres ent seniors were freshmen.
