Gent Has Idea The project was conceived by Chris Gent, MSC business manag er, after hearing complaints that School Debate (Continued from Page 1) Stand and “wave madly” for the newsreel picture. Policemen were scattesed through the crowd that sat in chilling breeze in the Mc Allen High School stadium. The McAllen High School band played "The Star Spangled Banner” be fore the debate began. Orville Cox, chairman of the McAllen Citizens’ League, sponsor of the debate, told the crowd that “a, great deal of sentiment may be on one side or the other but we ask you to conduct yourselves with re straint and dignity. Since Hoiles purchased the three newspapers recently they have adopted an editorial policy in op position to tax supported schools. This policy has been the sub ject of several protest meetings hold recently in McAllen. Hofhemz also has challenged it over his radio. A question and answer discus sion between the two men on the Same subject is set for tomorrow night. there was no place to take a date when she arrived on Friday.

New Queen (Continued from Page 2) ed her everywhere she went. In remarking Windlesharn Moor, a country house in Surrey, into a home for herself and Phince Philip, Elizabeth buried one of her girl hood’s most grievous disappoint ments. Her father had granted her Sunninghill Park, a beautiful Georgian estate near Ascot, as a bridal home. Rebuilding was un derway when one night, about three months before her wedding, it caught fire and burned to a shell. Homemaking gave her joy. She set great store by the home, both as an institution and as a center for her own living. Once she ob served that “the strength of our country—or of any great country —lies in the home and the family.” Knew How to Cook The Princess knew about home making early. She could turn a bed properly and, cook a meal— she preferred plain cooking to fancy, and quick light meals to heavy ceremonious ones. Elizabeth was bom April 21, 1926, in the Bruton street home of her maternal grandfather, the Earl of Strathmore. A few yards away lay the quiet shade of Berk eley Square. The other way lay fashionable, busy Bond Street. To gether they offered a token of the calm privacy and the public bustle of life for a premier public figure. At the age of five weeks, the little girl was swathed in a his toric royal christening robe and baptized into the Church of Eng land in the private chapel of Buck ingham Palyace, then tenanted by her grandfather, George V. She was christened Elizabeth Alexan dra Mary Windsor, after three queens of her country. (It was a token of the times in which she grew up that the chapel in which she was named was smashed by a German bomb in the London “blitz” of 1941. Her birth place was similarly tom up.) icroije. ike orve6 tkat Aaxj xerkat ijcnu uitmt "to &ax\ tke biq Valentine clUpkuj at THE EXCHANGE STORE "Serving Texas Aggies” WWW WE FEATURE V0LLAND CARDS • THERE ARE NONE FINER School Construction Congress To Hear Newsman Today On ‘Red'Massacre Lincoln School students watch the progress of construction at their school.

Washington, Feb. 7 — OP> — An American newsman will tell con gressmen today how Russian au thorities tried to blame the Ger man Nazis for the massacre of 10,000 Polish officers in World War II. Henry Cassidy, former chief of the Associated Press bureau in Moscow and now news editor of NBC, has been called to testify before a special house committee investigating the massacre in Ka tyn Forest. Four witnesses have told the committee already that the Rus sians shot and strangled the Po lish prisoners whose bodies were found by the Germans. Cassidy—One of Group Cassidy was one of a group of Moscow foreign correspondents taken by the Soviets to view mass graves at Katyn in mid-January, 1944. The forest is 33 miles west of Smolensk. The Nazis located the graves the previous April when they overran Smolensk. Berlin immediately broadcast the news and said the Soviets had done the killing.

Tadeusz Romer, former Po lish ambassador to Moscow, testi fied that Soviet authorities had refused until then to answer offi cial Polish inquiries as to the whereabouts of 15,000 missing Po lish officers. ‘Mask Man’ Testifies A former Polish soldier, 'wear ing a pillowslip mask to hide his identity because he has relatives behind the iron curtain, testified yesterday that he witnessed the shooting or burial alive of 200 Po lish officers in Katyn Forest. The date was early November, 1939. Cassidy and several other for eign correspondents, including The 1920 basketball team at A&M was the only one in the col lege’s history to be undefeated. Captained by E. E. McQuillan, cur rent director of the A&M Develop ment fund, the Aggie team won 19 consecutive games. Coach in those days was Bill Driver. Americans, were taken to Katyn to view the massed graves after Russia recaptured the area. The party included the former Kathleen Harriman, daughter of W. Avcrell Harriman, then U. S. ambassador to Moscow. Published reports about the Katyn massacre have claimed that she subsequently wrote a secret report for the State Department supporting the Soviet claims. Witness May Be Called Now Mrs. Stanley C. Mortimer, Jr., of New York City, her name may enter today’s testimony. Com-^ mittee counsel John Mitchell told a reporter he would call Mrs. Mortimer as a witness later. Arthur Bliss Lane, former U. Sf ambassador to Warsaw, has de scribed in a magazine article (American Legion) what he tem-y-w ed “official attempts in Washing/ ■ ton, beginning with Harriman’s in Moscow, to cover up the Commu nist crime” at Katyn. Mitchell has said Lane’s charges will be taken up during the present investigation. A Lucky-Customer Each Day EACH DAY, one of our customers may ge t DOUBLE-VALUE for her grocery money spent here.
