Aggies Give 3,500 Apple and Oranges A total of 3,500 apples and oranges were presented before Christmas to the Veteran’s Ad ministration Center at Temple by P. L. Downs, Jr. Helping to contribute to this “Christmas cheer” for the veterans were the residents of College Sta tion, students, staff, faculty, em ployes of the college, the A. & M. Consolidated school and the Lincoln school for the coloi-ed. This plan to give fruit to the veterans at Temple was starded in 1951 by Mrs. R. Henderson Shuf fler, wife of R. H.

They were wearing slacks and shirts. “One was about 6’ 4” tall, anoth er weighed about 195 pounds, and the other two were about our size.” Hubert is 5^ 6V2” and weighs 130 pounds, Edwai’d is 5’ 6”, 135 pounds and Walker is 5’ 8” and weighs 140 pounds. “They looked exactly like movie ‘prinks’,” Hubert said.
