CHS Students Talk
On Boys, Girls State
Boys State and Gills State, high
school student organizations that
teach government, were explained
yesterday to the Kiwanis club.
Janice Latimer and Dan Wil
liams, who represented A&M Con
solidated high school at the meet
ings last year, gave the Kiwanians
their report. Expenses to the Boys
and Girls State meetings are paid
by the club.
Janice said that the dormitories
at the camp were divided into
cities and counties. She told the
club how - elections were held to
show the students the functioning
of the government. Those attend
ing the meet were divided into the
“Federalist” and “Nationalist”
parties.
“I ran for ‘county school super
intendent’ but the Federalists de
feated me,” she said.
“When we took a tour of the
capitol in Austin, we found out
how much red tape is involved in
government,” Janice said.
Dan explained Boys State, which
was almost like Girls State.
Six Aggie Baptists
Report on Meeting
Six members of the A&M Bap
tist Student Union presented a pro-
gi-am on the benefits of the Texas
BSU Convention in San Antonio
at the Sunday evening service of
the First Baptist Church of Col
lege Station.
David Mitchell, president of the
A&M BSU, presided over the meet
ing and spoke on Howard E. Butt’s
opening speech at the convention.
Others on the program were De-
wayne Peterson, Louis McKnight,
Frank Pollard, Dick Bumpass and
Tommy Dunagan.
About 30 Aggies attended the
convention last weekend. Total at
tendance was estimated at 3,000
Baptist students. The A&M stu
dents ushered Friday night and
assisted Baylor university in usher
ing Sunday morning.
Kiwanians to Sell
Lunches Saturday
The College Station Kiwanis
club will sell box lunches before
the A&M-Baylor football game
Saturday.
There will be six selling sta
tions set up in the city to sell the
lunches.
The lunches will contain chicken,
pickles, buttered rolls, potato
ehips, a cupcake and an apple.
Kiwanis members who will sell
the lunches are Ray Berry, Joe
Campbell, Ralph Rogers, Walter
Manning, E. B. Reynolds, R. L.
Skrabanek, Mike Krenitsky, S. L.
Loveless, Joe Sorrels, and J. B..
Longley.
“We were divided into the
“Pioneer” and “Longhorn” Parties,
and I was put with the pioneers,”
he said. “I was glad they did be
cause the other party sounded too
much like TU.”
Dan showed how the boys at
tending the meeting got the same
opportunity to learn about govern
ment as the gix-ls’ group.
He summed up the value of the
whole pi-oject by saying, “You get
to live the government and not just
get it out of the book.”
Kiwanis District
Elects Loveless
S. L. Loveless of the College Sta
tion Kiwanis club has been elect
ed lieutenant governor of division
nine of the state Kiwanis organi
zation.
Loveless was elected at the divi
sion meeting in Houston last week.
At the College Station Kiwanis
club yesterday, he said he hoped
the club would be proud of the
division’s selection.
“It took the help and support of
the club to make the election pos
sible,” Loveless said.
He then issued a challenge to the
club to continue to uphold the high
standards that are “bringing notice
to the club.”
Membership Drive
Set by CHS Cub
The Mother and Dads club of
A&M Consolidated elementary
school began a membership drive
recently.
“The room mothers decided to
carry out the campaign on a room
basis, and parents will be given
an opportunity to join the club and
pay dues thi’ough their children
and their children’s teachers,” Mrs.
John R. Bertrand president, said.
In the past, membership fees and
other earnings of the club have
been used to buy essential equip
ment for the school for which
school money was not available,
said Mrs. Bertrand.
