The Las l Word
On Mrs Texas A&M,
jobs, Newlyweds' \
By VIVIAN CASTLEBERRY
Battalion Women’s Editor
W HO IS SHE?
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.
