Multiplying Cubs Causes
New Problems at Baylor
Waco, Feb. 5—^—Baylor University has a bear problem on its
hands.
Birth of three cubs a week ago to one of the Baylor Bears, mas
cots of the football team, brought troubles:
1. What to name them.
2. Where to house them.
3. And how to finance a growing family that now numbers seven
bears, and one of them expectant.
Chita was the bear that had cubs a week ago. She was given to
Baylor in 1946. Dr. Jose Ibarra Gonzales of Rosita, Coahuila, Mexico,
was governor of Coahuila then, presented Chita to Coke Stevenson,
then governor of Texas, and Stevenson presented her to Baylor.
The Baylor Chamber of Commerce, keeper of the bear mascots,
has telegraphed a birth announcement to Dr. Ibarra Gonzales,
The bear pit on the Baylor campus was originally built for two.
Right now papa Joe and Barney, a son of Joe and Josephine, are
sharing the big pit themselves. Chita and her cubs are in a small pen.
Josephine j the expectant one, is in a small trailer cage on the tennis
courts. i - Ti

class-room study and is expected
to spend at least two hours a day
in outside work.
A small percentage of the lang
uage students are selected for area
study. Generally this area training,
Colonel Napier commented,. is a
one year extra work in addition
to the language work, and includes
the study of history, economics,
sociology, geography, and geopoli
tics of the particular country.
Schools Participating
Schools which are participating
in the programs and the languages
they offer are the University of
Pennsylvania, German; University
of Indiana, Polish, Turkish, and
Serbo-Croatian; Cornell University,
Ukranian; Yale University, Chin
ese; Syracuse University, Russian;
and the Army Language School
which teaches several.
Only personnel selected for a
position requiring languages pro
ficiency will be given this train
ing. The agencies within the Air
Force who can use second lieuten
ants following language training
are Air Force Security Service, Air
Intelligence Service Organizations,
Directorate of Special Investiga
tions and Psychological Warfare.
Officers will probably, Colonel
Napier said, be assigned to over
seas installations upon completion
of this training.

son; Val Joe Walker of Southern
Methodist, who does the high
hurdles in around 14 seconds; Bill
Stalter, the Aggie sprinter—and
then there are the newcomers to
Varsity track, the sprint twins of
the University of Texas: Dean
Bmith and Charles Thomas.
Smith and Thomas Close
Since Smith and Thomas are so
close together and will be pushing
each other, it’s quite likely that
both will hit 9.5 in the 100-yard
dash. They’ve already done 9.6.
Still another most excellent pros
pect for an Olympics berth is
Charles Holding, the East Texas
State College high jumper who had
the best mark in the w r orld last
year—6 feet 994 inches.
Holding didn’t get to compete
in the major college meets last
season because he was a freshman.
But he can this time.
