Kiwanis Club Park Dedicated
To Serve CS Area Youth
“Site presented for the youth of
this area” is part of the inscription
on the sign marking the entrance
to Kiwanis Park.
Located at the end of Munson
Drive in College Hills, the park
was founded three years ago when
J. C. Culpepper Jr. deeded a four
and a half acre tract to the College
Station Kiwanis Club.
The club with the aid of the
College Station Community Chest
has developed the park through
the years until today it stands
ready to serve the youth of the
ai’ea.
Few places could be better locat
ed to give youngsters a wooded re
treat where, guided by experienced
leaders, they can enjoy fellowship
in the outdoors.
The park is equipped with run
ning water, a parking area, and
a shelter. Yet, the area for the
most part has been left untouch
ed by human hands.
Walking down the trail leading
from the entrance to the shelter,
trees and plants of many varieties
can be observed. Further back
in the park, are located ideal spots
for Sunday afternoon picnics and
camp fires.
A troop of Brownies spent five
days at the park during the sum
mer, studying birdlore, conducting
nature studies, and practicing
campcraft. The Brownies are be-

Students wishing to serve as tutors
should contact James Y. Alexander in the

The procedure for a student to be listed
by the Registrar’s Office as a qualified
tutor is as follows:
(1) The student should contact James Y.
Alexander in the Registrar’s Office.
(2) There the student will be given neces
sary forms to fill out and have ap
proved by the department head in which
field he wishes to tutor students.
(3) The student is then placed on the qual
ified list of tutors by the Registrar.
This list is made available to students
needing tutors.
There is currently a shortage bf student
tutors. Pay for tutoring varies, but gen
erally averages about 75 cents an hour,
and in some cases the hourly wage paid
probably will be higher.
CANDIDATES FOR DEGREES
Any student who normally expects to
complete all the requirements for a degree
by the end of the current semester should
call by the Registrar’s Office NOW, and
make formal application for a degree.
November 1st is the deadline for filing an

the end of the current semester. This
deadline applies to both graduate and un
dergraduate students. Those who have not
already done so, shouuld make formal ap
plication in the Registrar’s Office imme
diately.

H. L. HEATON, Registrar.
lieved to be responsible for a fire
place which can be found on the
premises.
Improvements such as the fire
place are greatly welcomed by such
men as R. G. Cherry, chairman of
the Kiwanis Park Committee.
Citizens of the community have
contributed through the community
chest over $1800 toward the devel
opment of the park during the
past three years.
The Avelita Chapter of the
Daughters of the American Revo
lution erected a, 50-foot flag pole
near the shelter at the park. Flag
raising ceremonies have aided in
impressing upon youth their re
sponsibility to country.
The way the community chest
money has been used to develop
the park is broken down as fol
lows: buildings, $1530; water sup
ply lines, $173; and miscellaneous
items such as sign post and park
ing area,, $247.
Besides Cherry, members of the
Kiwanis Park Committee which
have helped to make the park a
success are R. W. Steen, S. L.
Loveless, and J. H. Sorrels.
The Kiwanis Club in practice is
an administrator for the park. The
deed to the land specifies should
the park at any time not be used
for the youth of the area, the land
,is to revert back to the Culpepper
heirs.
The National Geographic Society
estimates that more than 230,000,-
000 persons see movies in the
world each week.

“Serving Texas Aggies’’
Warner Dahlberg, a patrol leader for Troop 411, comes to atten
tion and salutes the United States flag during a flag raising cere
mony at Kiwanis Park. His troop spent the night at the park,
erecting tents and cooking their meals. Jack Burns, First Class
Scout, raises the flag.
“Most of the present interna
tional political problems arise in
the Middle East, the Pacific area,
and in Europe,” declared James
Farmer to the Campus Study Club
Tuesday at the YMCA.
Farmer cited the reasons for
these places being trouble spots: a
rising spirit of nationalism and
Communistic propaganda.
Members of the Debate Team,
Farmer, Joe Riddle and Dan Davis,
reviewed world problems before the
study group.
The problems which the United
States faces in Europe were enum
erated by Davis, who toured Eu
rope the past summer on a YMCA
scholarship.
