/ Page 4 THE BATTALION Monday, April 30, 1951 Women’s Group Hears UN Program The United Nations Club pre sented a program of music and ed ucational talks at the Friday meet ing of the A&M Women’s Social Club held in the Ballroom of the MSC. Gopi Nath Das, plant pathology major from Pakistan, gave a vocal rendition of a song in his native Mongolian language. Bebe Trevino and Alvaro Perez Travino, dairy husbandry majors from Mexico, contributed guitar music and songs including “Quie- rover,” “Vesusita en Chiuhueua,” “Adios mi Chaparrita,” and “Ato- tonilco.” G. N. Raut, graduate student from India, spoke of the women in India. He told of the deep respect for women and of the marriage customs of his country. “Marriages are arranged by the parents and divorces are not considered,” he said. “Marriages are planned with regard to problems of the caste system economics, anything wrong with family in past genera tions, and the horoscope,” he add ed. Mrs. H. L. Heaton, program chairman of the Social Club, in troduced the United Nations Club Sponsor, M. L. Cushion, secretary of the YMCA, and the officers and members of the club. Aly Lasheen of Egypt is president and Charles Beagle, United States representa tive in the club, is secretary. Members of the United Nations Club were invited to attend this meeting of the Social Club as spec ial guests. Mrs. Howard W. Barlow, retir ing president of the A&M Women’s Social Club, presided over the bus iness meeting and after thanking the officers who served with her during the past term, she intro duced the officers for the coming year. Mrs. Heaton announced a bene fit to be given at Playland on May 3 for the purpose of raising money for the Consolidated School Band. Aggies Split Two-Game Series (Continued from page 3) Lary lashed out the first of two doubles to right field and Wal lace came all the way in as Mel- zer Rose hobbled the ball. Lary came in on Bill McPherson’s solid single. Batted Around The Aggies batted around in the big four-run third. Wallace singled, Lary popped up, John De- Witt walked and all hands were safe when third baseman King missed an attempted tag of Wallace after fielding McPherson’s ground er. Then the roof caved in. A wild pitch brought in Wal lace, two moi’e walks forced in DeWitt, and Hal Ogletree’s ringing single drove in the firth and sixth runs. In the eighth inning, two walks, two errors and a fielder’s choice play that didn’t pan out scored the last two runs. , Second Game A&M AB R IT 0 A Ecrette, 2b 5 10 3 1 Wallace, ss 2 2 110 Dishman, ss 2 10 3 0 Larv, If 5 12 10 DeWitt, cf 3 10 10 McPherson, rf 4 12 0 0 Candelari, 3b 3 10 2 5 Munnerlyn, lb .... 3 0 16 0 Ogletree, c 4 0 1 10 0 Hubert, p 4 0 10 2 Totals 35 8 8 27 8 TCU AB R H O A Rose, rf 5 0 0 1 0 Ethridge, 2b 4 0 15 1 King, 3b 5 0 0 0 0 Elliott, lb 2 114 1 Carroll, ss 4 0 14 1 Barnes, cf 2 0 0 0 0 A-Sears 1 0 0 0 0 Reynolds, If 4 0 110 Haynes, If 0 0 0 1 0 Graves, p 3 0 0 2 2 Totals 34 1 7 27 6 A—Struck out for Barnes in 9th.

Floyd Asks ‘What Does Athletics Hold For Me?* Burchard-Williams Win VP Awards By FRED WALKER Battalion Sports Editor Jack Burchard and Bobby Wil liams were given the coveted Most Valuable Player awards in football and basketball Friday night at the Kiwanis sponsored Sixth Annual Banquet and Party honoring A&M Consolidated athletes. During an evening of athletic recognition, A&M’s Head Basket ball Coach John Floyd faced the high school athletes with the many- sided question of “What Does Ath letics Hold oFr Me?” Master-of-Ceremonies John Mc- Neely started the after-dinner pro gram by calling upon CHS yell leaders Liz Miller, Dorothy Spriggs, Mary Francis Bond, Cel este Curran and Louise Street to lead the aggregation of students, parents, teachers and guests in two songs, “Consolidated High School” and “America.” After the Invocation, given by Consolidated student, Norman An derson, the rest of the evening was given over to the main purpose of the banquet—Athletics. L. E. Boze, principal of A & M Consolidated, presented a review of the athletic achievements during the past year and thanked the Ki wanis Club for their “invaluable” assistance during football season. Boze proudly told the assembly that “90% of Consolidated’s students are participating in some sport.” Not Mandatory Boze emphasized that athletic participation was, however, not mandatory. “It has always been voluntary and some boys are in as many as four or five sports, he said. After Head Football Coach O. V. Chafin explained that gold foot balls would be awarded to men who had lettered more than one year and sweaters would go to all first- year lett’ermen, he gave a few min utes special recognition to the yell leaders, “who,” he said, “had as much to do with athletics as the boys themselves.” Smith & McDowell The “big moment” then came as Bob Smith and Jewell McDowell made the football and basketball awards. Roland Jones and Bobby Wil liams were presented the Co-Cap tains awards in football by Smith, and Burchard, in addition to the Most Valuable Player Prize, was given a plaque for being the team’s Best Blocker. S. A. Lipscomb and W. N. (Flop) Colson donated the awards. Coach John Floyd Special Stationery Sale NATIONALLY ADVERTISED STATIONERY ON SPECIAL SALE Here is something of special interest to you!

THE EXCHANGE STORE “Serving Texas Aggies” McDowell awarded the basket ball presentations then to Co-Cap tains Royce Rogers and Billy Blakeley and Valuable Player Wil liams. These prizes were given by Ed Madeley and John Pruitt, and G. W. Black, respectively. Floyd then addressed the group and made allusions to athletics and speech-making as he said: “Play Your Sport” “Boys, its all right to be ner vous, but when they throw the ball up or call ‘hike’, start running and stop the foolishness. Play your sport and your game.’” Floyd then charged the athletes to “. . . do in athletics as you do in life’s endeavors . . .” and asked two questions: “What Does Sports Hold For Me” and “What Is the Difference in Being Great and Just Being Common?” The first question was answered by Floyd in nine parts; Sportsman ship, Discipline, Leadership, “Fol lowing”, Respect, Determination, Gracefullness, Courtesy and Work. One example carried Floyd’s sec ond question to its end. The bas ketball mentor compared a small town lawyer to one from a big city. Both had been exposed to the‘same training but one gained a better name and position in life. “What was the difference,” Floyd asked? “Work,” he said.” It was that little extra effort or extra hour of study that one was willing to put forth, that changed the circumstances.” After Floyd finished, coaches Chafin, “Hoss” Shaeffer and W. M. Dowell were given presents by their athletic students. The formal program was closed by the yell leaders who led “Ti gers Fight”, Consolidated’s “fight” song, and the rest of the evening was spent in dancing. These are the boys who lettered last year in Consolidated sports. Fred Anderson and David Bonnen, were the only two to letter in five sports, while four-sport lettermen were Bobby Williams and Roland Jones. Lettering in three sports were: William Benavidez, Pinkney Cooner, Melvin Free, Pete Hick man, Bobby Jackson, George John ston, Gayle Klipple, Jerry Leigh ton, Joe Motheral, and Dan Wil liams. Byron Andrews, Bob Barlow, Lu zon Beaucamp, Don Burchard, Jack Burchard, Billy Blakeley, Jimmy Bond, Bob Anspauch, David Cor- roll, Freddy Lenz, Jimmy Richards, Royce Rodgers, Donald Royder, Bobby Smith, John Robert Smith, Edward Simek, Dick Weick, George Sousares, Bobby Carter, and Wil liam Arnold were all two-sports lettermen. Lettermen in one sport were: Tom Barlow, Frank Barnes, Dick French, Paul Harris, Eddie Guth rie, Thomas Wade, Douglas Nor- cross, James Johnson, Billy Rich ards, and Cody Wells. John Manthei and Homer Franks were the managers.
