‘Fates Are Smiling’ On Aggie-Ex Wallaces
By VIVIAN CASTLEBERRY I
Battalion Women’s Editor
•PHIS past weekend looked like exodus-day at College View
and Vet Village as more-student-families than usual
moved out of the College housing areas at the close of the
first semester of summer school. For every family that left,
it appeared that somebody else was moving right in. Many
of the license plates of trucks that removed furniture were
from out of state . . . and Aggies continue to spread their
special brand of stick-togetherness to the Four Corners.
Comes word from the Scott Stiles—Scott, Ann, Pam and Susan,
now residents of Del Rio that they would like a hello with all their old
Aggie buddies, but they’re much too busy setting up their new home
to be lonely. Comes word from grads Helen and Calvin Hodge, Jan.
’50 that they’re now in their recently completed home in Duncanville.
Comes word from Aggie-ex Noel McRoberts and his bride-of-a-year
Edith that their new Garland home is now occupied by them. Comes
word from recent graduate Gale Brundrett that he and his new bride,
the former Mary Ruth Boone, are now home in Refugio. . . . And
comes word from the Curtis Edwards’—Lt. Curtis D. Edwards and
his recent bride, Judy Munroe Edwards—that they’re all settled in
San Antonio where he is stationed in the Air Force. . . . Another Alamo
City resident of recent College Station address is immediate-past
Commentator-editor Hex-man Gollob who is also with the Air Force.
Bobby Jake 1 Samuels, two-and-a-half-year-old youngster of Wilma
and Jake Samuels has a big surprise when he returns from Waco
soon. He will be greeting his brand-new brother for the first 1 time.
Wilma and Jake welcomed their second son into the family on Saturday
morning at St. Joseph Hospital.
Nothing is nicer than good news from wonderful people.
Recently we had just that. Dr. and Mrs. Hugh Wallace
are the parents of a new baby hoy, born recently in Mound
City, Mo. where Dr. Wallace set up his veterinary practice
following his graduation from A&M last June ’50. He
is a past editor of the Southwestern Veterinarian and held
down that position while maintaining a grade point ratio
in Vet School sufficient for him to be named most out-
stand senior vet student and most outstanding student
in the school of Vet Medicine for his senior year. His

IN WARD III
Notice Is hereby given that a special

NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS
The Board of Trustees of the A. & M.
pretty dark-haired wife, Jean, is one of the reasons we
maintain that we’ve met the most wonderful people in
Aggieland that we’ve ever known anywhere. Jean was
stricken with infantile paralysis yhen she was an adoles
cent, Though she wore braces and used crutches, Jean
did all her own housework and cared for their i small
daughter, Julie, while they were A&M students. Now
established with their practice in Missouri, in Jean’s
hometown^'she writes: “The Fates that be have smiled
on us. We now own our home, Hugh’s practice is going
fine. We have a wonderful little boy to add to the family
of one little girl and we have a new car equipped with
special apparatus that I can drive!’’
One little three-year-old came out the loser on Tuesday when he
decided to shave with his daddy’s razor. David Morley, small charmer
of Pat and Bill Morley, wandered off into the bathroom while his
mama dressed for work. Mother looked up in time to see the young
ster’s face smeared with blood. Terrified, she scooped him up and
examined his face. The,blood all came from a small cut but he had
smeared it with his hands. Investigation revealed the razor. Dad
promised to keep his razor put up. Mother has promised to tan a
youngster thoroughly if he gets into things again that are not in
tended for him. And David has promised not to try to shave anymore
until he is a least fourteen!
AN ON-AGAIN-OFF-AGAIN ROMANCE will be on again for
all time to come next Tuesday when Betty Jo Ross and Ken Schaake
exchange their wedding vows in Bryan’s First Baptist Church. Betty
Jo, then a recent high school graduate, and Ken, an Aggie soph,
were introduced during the summer of ’49. The popular bride-to-be
refused Ken’s first invitation for a date, but later accepted a date with
him. During that summer of ’49 they dated occasionally, but both
insisted “We didn’t dream it wpiild lead to THIS!” After Betty Jo
entered college, she and the recent-social-secretary-of-the-Senior Class
dated when she would be home “and neither one of us had anything
better to do.” Just after mid-term of this past year the young couple
starting seeing a great deal of each other, and suddenly there was
Ken’s Dream Girl in Miss Ross. He’ll change her name to Schaake
next Tuesday evening.
AMONG THE NEWLYWEDS. . . . Jacqueline Virginia
Meyer and Dan H. Kuykendall, ’45 I.E. were married July
6 in San Antonio. The bride is a graduate of Rice Insti
tute where she was a member of the Elizabeth Baldwin
Literary Society. Mr. and Mrs. Kuykendall are at home
in Corpus Christi. . . . Phillip F. Hunter, ’’49 Bus. and
Florence Ernestine Matteck have set their wedding date
for August 4. The bride-elect is a graduate of TSCW.
Phil is with the Navy stationed in New London, Conn.
A Houston wedding Saturday united Grace Pierson and Edward
N. Whitton, '44 CE. The couple will live in San Antonio when they
return from a wedding trip to the Ozarks. The bridegroom is a
member of the Aggie Club and the American Society of Civil Engi
neers in^the Alamo City. . . . Landscape Art ’46 graduate L. A.
Pitts and Clara Kay Joost will be married on August 25 in San An
tonio. Besides his BS fi’om A&M, Pitts holds a degree from Trinity
University. He has also attended the University of Oslo, Norway.
He is listed in Who’s Who in American Colleges and Universities and
is a member of Blue Key honorary fraternity.
Another June graduate of A&M, Eugene B. Scroggins, EE, joined
the wedded ranks last week when he exchanged marriage vows with
Mary Arnett Anders. The couple will live in Buffalo, N.Y., where
he is employed. . . . June graduate Winston A. McKenzie will be wed
on August 24 in Houston to Sidney Maxine Taylor. Lt. McKenzie is
with the Army. Both young people are from Houston. . . Another
Aggie-ex, John T. Hutchen Jr. and Jacqueline Ann Wood became man
and wife in Houston Saturday night. The new Mrs. Hutchen is a
graduate of Baylor University where she was president of Pi Alpha
Lambda. The couple will be at home in Lawton, Oklahoma.

uate. His bride attended Rice Institute where she was a
member of Pallas Athene Literary Society. The couple

dies and the privation he suffers,
they would realize more clearly the
injustice it is hoped will be cor
rected with this bill. Incidentally,
I have tried on several occasions
to visit our men in Korea, but
have been turned down on each
request by the Department of De
fense.
This bill would give each officer
an additional $100 per month and
each enlisted man $50 who are
actually engaged in combat with
the enemy, and it would be retro
active to the outbreak of Korean
hostilities. Further, in the case
of deceased personnel, the monies
would be payable to their benefi
ciaries. I have not made up my
mind about the amounts contained
in this bill, but I do believe in the
principle therein of special recog
nition for those who bear the brunt
of the casualties.
Legislation Merits Consideration
I believe this legislation merits
the earnest consideration ajid sup
port of the House. Since the Korean
conflict began, there have been at
least eight different attempts to
put a combat pay bill before the
House for its consideration, and
I feel that it is imperative that
some action be taken, as soon as
possible.

A&M star athlete D a r r o w
Hooper (football, discus, shot
put, etc.) and his pretty wife
Jeannine were featured in a re
cent article in their hometown
newspaper, The Fort Worth Star
Telegram. Harrow is employed
this slimmer with a pipe company
in Grand Prairie. He and his
dark-haired vivacious wife will
be back to Aggieland soon where
Harrow will begin working out
with the football team.
Former Battalion managing edi-
toP George Fuermann in his daily
column Post Card in the Houston
Post reported recently some of the
comments written in the guest book
marked “Worried Fathers Only”
in the “Stork Club” of the Hermann
Hospital in Houston. One of the
comments was written by Bill
Watts, ’47 Accounting. Bill wrote
“Unreasonable hour for unreason
able female. 12:09 a.m., 7 lb. 10
oz. girl. Planned on an Aggie
fullback, but glad to settle for an
Aggie morale booster.”
Returning soon from the West
Coast where she has been mak
ing her home will be Mary Mar
garet Potthoff. Her husband,
Lt. (jg) Fred H. Potthoff, ’47
ME, will be leaving for sea duty
on tha 23rd of July. Mrs. Pott
hoff is the sister of Battalion
Sports Editor Andy Anderson,
who introduced his sister to her
husband in 1947. Andy and Fred
were Aggie roommates and Andy
introduced his pretty sister to
one of his favorite Aggie bud
dies. Their first date was a
Corps Trip affair, and the ro
mance soon culminated in mar
riage. Mary Margaret will make
her home temporarily with her
parents-in-law in Houston.
SHOULD AULD ACQUAIN
TANCES BE FORGOT. . . One of
the nicest things imaginable is to
see a familiar face in a place where
you weren’t expecting it. That
happened to us recently. We were
driving around the campus when a
familiar voice hailed us, and there
was Robert Jack
with a stack of
arm. He immediately started
claiming that anybody who would
voluntarily return to school during
the summer should have his head
examined, but he quickly admitted
that his chief gripe is that his
pretty blonde wife is keeping the
home fires burning while he works
on his master’s degree. . .. Doubt
less, by the weekend, Jeanie will
have joined her husband at Aggie
land. •
