Serums Prevent
Many Fatal Ills
Many of the dreaded diseases of
yester years are no longer a ser
ious threat. Whooping cough which
at one time took a heavy toll, es
pecially among infants, is being
stamped out.
Likewise, scarlet fever is being
whipped, the State Morbidity re
port shows.
Last week only one case of
whooping cough and scarlet fever
were reported in the Bryan-Col-
lege area.
Serums used both as a treatment
and preventive of these diseases
are causing their extinction.
Whooping cough preventative
serum is administered to infants
the first few months of life, ac-

The microscopic streptococcus
germ which caused scarlet fever
is also combated with a new pre
ventative serum. Scarlet fever,
like the measles, is spread by di
rect contact with infected persons.
In the case of the measles, how
ever it is still flooding the state.
Again this disease leads the list,
with 68 cases reported. Last week
there were a like number of cases
in the Bryan-College area.
There were no cases of influenza
reported. Strep throat is also with
out victims.
Other diseases reported were
pneumonia, four cases; tubercu
losis, one; mumps, 16 and chicken-
pox, 11.

Members of the 1950-51 Student
Senate were presented gold keys
at their final banquet-meeting of
the year last night in the MSC
Assembly Room.
Keys were presented by Bennie
Zinn, assistant dean of men for
student affairs, in behalf of the
Student Activities department.
In action after the banquet, the
senators passed amendments to the
constitution which established of
fices of recording secretary, corres
ponding secretary, and treasurer;
and required that the Senate presi-
don’t be an academically classified
senior at the time he takes office.
Constitution Tie Stopped
A motion by Joe Fuller to accept
an amendment which would unite
the constitution of the student body
—under which the Senate functions
—and that of the Student Life
Committee was defeated, 15-10.
The amendment, had it passed,
would have permitted either body
to alter that portion of the consti
tution which pertained- to its work,
and would have required both
groups to alter any part which af
fected both.
During the voting for the amend
ments, Fuller said he thought it
“a crying shame” that the Senate
president had no permanent office
on the campus where files and
records of the Senate could be
maintained. Several suggestions
for office space were made, al
though no definite aimangements
were completed.
Vote of Confidence
Karl Meyers reported on the
mascot committee’s progress in ob
taining a German shepherd. The
committee received a vote of con
fidence upon its woi-k after debate
arose over whether or not a “han
dler” should be named for the dog
after he is brought to the campus.
Senator Jimmy Onstatt reported
that four of the six civilian dormi
tories had contributed $10 each
from their funds to repay Texas
University for damages done there
by A&M students. The two re
maining dormitories will be con
tacted soon, Onstatt said.
Allan Eubank announced a total
of $1,800 in the Campus Chest
fund, with any profits from final
75th Anniversary Medallion sales
still to be counted. The Chest com
mittee had previously been empow
ered to apportion the money be
tween the Twelfth Man Scholarship
“Learning is like rowing up
stream; not to advance is to drop
back.” Post Graduation Studies.
and the Foreign Student Scholar
ship.
Medallion Sales Climb
One hundred and twenty-three
medallions were sold in the MSC
over the weekend, Bill Sky-Eagle
reported. He lauded Senators
Doyle Griffin and Lloyd Manjeot
for their efforts in seeing that a
large number of medallions were
sold both in their dormitories and
over the campus.
A motion by Duane Vandenberg
to commend the Senate officers
and committee chairmen for their
work during the year was passed
unanimously.
President Bill Parse and Senator
W. D. “Pusher” Barnes told the
Senate of the discussion scheduled
tonight at 7:15 in the MSC on
A&M’s' student government and
proposed changes.
Four Juniors Added
Four juniors were added to a
committee which will meet with
athletic department officials con
cerning the possibility of moving
either the athletic dormitory to the
New Area or the athletes individ
ually to “regular outfits.”
Guests at the banquet, which
preceded the meeting, included
Gibb Gilchrist, chancellor of the
A&M System; Dr. M. T. Harring
ton, president of the college; Dr.
J. P. Abbott, dean of arts and
sciences; Dr. H. W. Barlow, dean
of engineering; Dr. I. G. Bough-
ton, dean of veterinary medicine;
Dr. C. N. Shepardson, dean of ag
riculture.
Dr. Ide P. Trotter, dean of the
graduate school; W. L. Penberthy,
dean of men; Col. H. L. Boatner,
PMS&T and" commandant of the
college; Col. E. W. Napier,
PAS&T; Lt. Col. M. P. Bowden,
assistant commandant; Zinn; C. G.
“Spike” White, assistant to the
dean of men for student activities;
and M. W. “Pete” Hardesty, Stu
dent Activities business manager.
Baccalaureate
Sermon Will Be
Given Sunday
On Sunday, May 20, A&M
Consolidated seniors and
friends will gather at the
A&M Presbyterian Church for

the A&M Presbyterian Church.
A sextet from A&M Consolidated

Tschalkowski. Mrs. J. T. Dawson,
music teacher at A&M Consolidat
ed, will direct the group.
The program will begin at 8 p.m.
with organ meditation by Mrs.
Luther Jones. The Rev. O. Byron
Richardson, pastor of the First
Baptist Church, College Station
will give the invocation.
The Rev. James F. Fowler, pas
tor of the Church of Christ, Col
lege Station will close the service
with his benediction.

uating seniors will be held Friday,

Baby Contest
Winner Child
Of Aggie-Ex
Golden-haired, blue-eyed Kath
ryn Margaret Murray was crowned
Supreme Beauty-Health-Personali
ty Queen of Greater New Orleans
from a group of 800 babies, last
week.
Kathryn is the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. William H. Murray of
New Orleans. Her father is an
Aggie-ex, as is her uncle, Charles
E. Murray. The Murrays were
once residents of the College Sta-
tion-Bryan area.
The contest, by which 30-month-
old Kathryn received her title, is
the 1951 Annual Baby Contest
sponsored by the DAV. The con
test was city and area-wide and
babies came not only from New
Orleans, but from its suburbs and
as far away as Baton Rouge.

Books for MSC
The MSC Browsing Room Com
mittee meets tonight at 7:15 in

Little Acre,” “Tobacco Road,” and

the decision will be left up to
the students.
