Old Indian Villiage Site
May Be Located Near A&M
The possible site of an Indian
village is located on the Brazos
river just a few miles from the
A&M campus.
According to Don R. Collins,
senior wildlife major from Hous
ton, two tribes of Indians, the
Tawakoni and the Waco, were
known to have ranged about the
Brazos and Trinity rivers as late
as 1946.
These tribes were principally
agricultural but also hunted buf
falo and other game to a consid
erable extent.
Collins, while on a weekend
field trip in search of ai'rowheads,
saw a large mound near the Braz
os that showed possibility of be
ing the former site of a village.
He said he found the area “lit
erally covered” with flint slivers.
He also uncovered several finish
ed arrowheads and a few bits of

The area seemed so productive
that Collins has decided to learn
as much about College Station
Indians as possible.
He, and Jim Hill, junior animal
husbandry major from Houston,
plan to make a complete survey of
the- Brazos county area.

you can have your dream house—this easy way!
•A dream? Not at all. Thousands of people with modest
incomes have been able to save the down payment, or the
whole price, of the home of their dreams—because they in*
vested in U. S. Savings Bonds on the Payroll Savings Plan:
Look at the chart on this page. See how you can accumulate
enough money for the down payment on a home. Or enough
for your children’s college education or a retirement in
come. And by saving only a few dollars a week, too.
The answer is that you save systematically on the Payroll
Savings Plan. All you have to do is tell your pay office how
much you’ve decided to save each payday (it can be as little
as a couple of dollars). After that your money is saved for
you, before you get your salary. Then each time enough has
accumulated, it is invested in a Bond, and the Bond turned
over to you.
And remember—your U. S. Savings Bonds now will bring
you an average of 3% interest, compounded semiannually;
for 19 years and 8 months. That’s why the money you put into
.Bonds now grows to such a surprisingly big sum.
Why don’t you start—today? Sign, where you work, for the
Payroll Savings Plan. Or, if you’re self-employed, have your
banker enroll you in the Bond-A-Month Plan. It’s as easy
as the Payroll Savings Plan.
How you can reach your savings goal
on the systematic Payroll Savings Plan
If you want approximately
$5,000
$10,000
$25,000
Each week for
9 years and
8 months, save..
$8.80
$18.75
$45.00
Each week fat
19 years and
8 months, save..
$3.75
$7.50
$18.75
This chart shows only a few typical examples of savings goals and
how to reach them through Payroll Savings. You can save Any
sum you wish, from a couple of dollars a payday up to as much as
you want. The important thing is, start your Plan today!
