Fourteen students of A&M Con
solidated High School were guests
of the College Station Kiwanis
Club at the club’s weekly luncheon
in the MSC yesterday.
The group related their activ
ities and experiences in running
the city for a day. The students,
elected by their classmates, served
as College Station city officials
Monday in observance of Kiwanis
International “Kids’ Day.”
George Johnston, student major,
was in charge of the program.
Johnston was introduced by E. E.
Ivy, chairman of Kids’ Day activ
ities.
Ergle Brings Smiles
Martha Ergle, who served as
councilman for Ward III (Junior-
class), brought a smile to every
one’s face when she related some
of the (hings she had learned. Ex
plaining the home rule plan of
government which College Station
is planning to adopt, she said the
character commission is composed
of 16 members, but only three ac
tually write the charter.
Becoming embarrassed because
of the laughter, Miss Ergle hastily
added “that was what the mayor
said.” Mayor Langford spent the
greater part of Monday aftemoon
explaining the functioning of the
city government. It was from his
talk that many of the students on
the program drew their material.
Landiss Explains
Carolyn Landiss, Ward III
(Sophomore Class), explained the
difference between the home-rule
and general law cities. Clifton
Bates, Ward I (Freshman Class)
told how copies of the charter
would be distributed to every qual
ified voter in the city, and an
election held 30 days later, auth
orizing the adoption of the charter.
The duties of the mayor and
councilmen were explained by Bar
bara Van Tassel, Ward III (Jun
ior Class). Gayle Klipple, student
city manager, related his inter
view with City Manager Raymond
Rogers. Klipple explained the dut
ies of the city manager.
Four other students explained
the duties of their appointive posi
tions. They were Sara Puddy, city
secretary; Fred Anderson, chief of
police; Tom Barlow, city attorney;
and Joe Motheral, Jr., utility super
intendent.

Prevalent in Area
The number of social diseases re
ported in the Bryan-College Sta

Health Unit for the week ending
Sept. 22 exceeded the total number
of sick cases from any other source.
Four cases of gonon-hea were
discovered in Bryan, and two cases
were reported in College Station.
Add to that number the three cases
of syphilis reported in Bryan, and
the total is brought to nine.
Eight cases of diarrhea is the

brought College Station up to six.
Other diseases reported in Bryan
were dysentery, two cases; mumps,

Variety of Organizations
Under Student Activities
The Office of Student Activ
ities, 2nd floor, Goodwin Hall, was
a beehive of activity during the
summer “slack” season, in pre
paration for the busy 1951-52
school year just started.
Books were audited, accounts
totaled and brought up to date,
stencils were cut, and mimeograph
ed sheets were run off by the
thousands for intramural athletics.
Lists of incoming students, stu
dents wives surveys, directory list
ings, and publications advertising
and subscriptions were compiled.
Office furnishings were rear
ranged to accommodate the new

To Cameron Lions’ Club
Norman Rode, professor of elec

a luncheon Tuesday. His topic was
“The Effects of the Atomic Bomb.”
staff, and preparations were made
in order that the fall semester
could commence with everything
“caught up.”
Now, after the summer period of
“rest,” the staff is “really getting
busy.” C. G. “Spike” White, assist
ant to the dean for Student Activ
ities, is head of this office, with
Pete Hardesty as his assistant.
Under the head “Student Activ
ities,” is found Student Publica
tions, with Roland Bing as head,
and Joseph Arnett his assistant;
Intramural Athletics, headed by
Barney Welch; Music Activities,
under the direction of Bill Turner;
and the Golf Course, with Joe
Fagan as manager.
In addition, student concessions,
including the record albums,
“Songs of Texas A&M,” candy and
gum for vending machines, and
tickets for Town Hall, and water
carnivals, dances, and other enter
tainments, are handled by the Of
fice of Student Activities.
Kiwanis Call
For Auditions
First call for volunteers to
play in “Kiwanis Kapers” has
brought out several promising
acts, according to C. K. Esten,
director of the Kiwanis Club
sponsored home talent show sche
duled for October 15.
“One gill is really a beauty,”
said Esten, “I think maybe she
can also sing. Then there is a Ki-
wanian who offers to sing, play
the piano or even strum a guitar,
but I haven’t heard him yet. With
in the next few days I expect to
audition a wide variety of acts.”
Rumors are current that a dis
gusted Kiwanian will do a solo
act entitled “It’s Later Than You
Think,” but exact nature of the
stunt is a carefully guarded sec
ret. Director Esten and Club Pres
ident A. C. Magee are emphasizing
the community nature of the show
and the open invitation to anyone
interested to come in for an audi
tion.
