ease the traffic problem brought about by the increased number of cars on the cam

Distribution In Dorms
Senate Backs Seal Drive
Joe Sorrels, head of the Christ
mas Seal Drive, appeared before
the Student Senate last night in
an effort to get their support for
the coming distribution of seals.
The Senate decided to back the
drive and to provide any means
of publicity it had available. The
Christmas Seals will be given to
Col. Joe E. Davis, commandant,
and Robert O. Murray, civilian
counselor, for distribution within
Delegation To Pick
ie Sweetheart
Agg‘
The Aggie Sweetheart for 1955-
16 will be chosen this weekend
from 10 candidates at Texas State
College for Women in Denton.
Ten A&M' students will leave
here Saturday morning to select
one of the 10 lovelies to be A&M’s
representative for the remainder
of the school year.
Representatives are Larry Ken
nedy, Corps commander; John Jen
kins, deputy Corps commander;
Scotty Parham, Student Senate
president; Allan Greer, Senior Class
president; Bill Willis, president of
the Arts and Sciences Council; Joe
Bill Foster, Senior Class social sec
retary.
Bud Whitney, MSC council pres
ident; Don Burton, president of
Senior Court; Bob Lee, election
commission, and Jack Quinn, rep
resentative of the Civilian Student
Council.
They will arrive in Denton in
time to have lunch with the candi
dates, who were chosen from 41
girls elected by the sophomore,
junior and senioi T classes at TSCW.
The A&M delegation will be en
tertained with a schedule of din
ing and dancing. They will attend
services in the Little Chapel in the
Woods Sunday morning with the
candidates. After services, A&M
representatives will recess for
two hours to vote on the Sweet
heart. In addition to the sweet
heart they will elect two alter
nates.
The sweetheart will represent
A&M at all football games, the
Cotton Bowl ceremony on New
Year’s Day, University of Texas
Roundup, Rice Rondelet and all
other Southwest Conference school
functions where A&M needs a fe
male representative.
Selection will be announced in
the Union Building* recreation room
immediately after noon Sunday.
“We had a hard time selecting
10 girls from the pictures sent in
by TSCW,” Kennedy said. “And
I’m certain it will be an even har
der job to eliminate nine more to
select an Aggie Sweetheart, but I
feel confident we will be able to
elect a girl suitable to represent
A&M.”
the student body.
“We have to distribute the seals
in this manner, because the stu
dent directory does not come out
in time for us to get the address
of each student,” Sorrels said.
The Senate also passed a resolu
tion stating that they would “not
condone any type of campaigning
for student offices by advertising
methods on the campus, other than
personal contact.
A report from the Reveille Com
mittee was presented and approv
ed by the Senators. Reveille is to
spend one month with E Infantry
and then one month with A Quar
termaster Corps and will then be
rotated back and forth for the one
month period.
One civilian student said that
Milner Hall would be glad to take
care of the mascot since there were
more veterinary medicine students
there and that they had the two
head waiters from the civilian din
ing* hall living in their dorm. He
said the dog would probably be
come friendlier with more people
this way.
The Senate expressed its appre
ciation to students of Milner but
said that the report had already
been approved and she would have
to accept the previous agreement.
In other business, the Senate re
ferred the laundering of waiter’s
jackets to the Mess Committee.
One Senator brought up the fact
that waiters have to pay 15 cents
for each jacket sent to the laundry,
even if the bundle is not over limit.
The committee on campus beau
tification turned in the following
recommendations:
• The completion of sidewalks
in the east area.
• The planting of grass in the
quadrangle of the west area.
• The placing of wire around the
Drill Field and Academic Building
to keep students from making
paths across the grass.
• That major paths not up for
sidewalks be graveled.
• That the hospital area be sup
plied with proper drainage.

ence as the result of a meeting
held here recently.
Dr. Sadler called the meeting of
college representatives with the
specific topic of conference expan
sion to take in Texas Tech and he
said that contrary to newspaper re
ports he found general sentiment
was that the big college in West
Texas should be invited.
Reports concerning the meeting,
that was supposed to have been
informal and without publicity
were that it was decided that if
expansion ever was considered, Ok
lahoma probably would be the first
school to receive an invitation.
“Some of those present men
tioned Oklahoma and University
of Houston,” Dr. Sadler said, “but
only incidentally. I felt that the
general sentiment of the meeting
was that Texas Tech should be in
vited and since then I have re
ceived letters from virtually all
who attended the meeting saying
they thought the meeting was most
helpful. They said they thought
it would be good to have Texas
Tech in the conference.”

Led by the fine all-around
play of quarterback Luther
Hall and the sparkling* run
ning ct halfback Joe Pascuzzi,
the Aggie Fish broke loose in
the second half to smother the
TCU Wogs, 27-6, on rain-swept
Kyle Field last night.
Hall showed the talent that
gained him all-American fame as
a Dallas schoolboy. He hit three
of four passes for 42 yards and
one touchdown, scored once himself
on an 11-yard jaunt and set up
both other scores with his fine
faking and ball-handling.
Pascuzzi, a 25-year-old ex-serv
iceman from Avella, Pa., was the
game’s leading ground gainer with
50 yards in three trips. Joe haul
ed in a touchdown pass, scampered
24 yards for the final score and
kicked three extra points.
Paul Delfeld, left halfback from
North Dallas high school, picked
up 44 yards on four carries, in
cluding a 33-yard sprint to the
double-stripe for the second Aggie
tally.
“I thought the A&M quarter
backs, especially Hall and Hathorn,
looked particularly good,” said Bill
Van Fleet of the Fm*t Worth Star
Telegram. Jackie Hathorn, Port
Neches two-year all-statei*, com
pleted two of three pass attempts
for 37 yards, and ran the option
play well.
Held in check by three 15-yard
penalties in the first 25 minutes of
play, the Fish capitalized on a TCU
fumble for their first score.
With a first and 15 on their own
26, Wog fullback Johnny Gregory
was hit hard and fumbled the wet
pigskin. Fish tackle Clarence
Hays, Gregory’s teammate at Fort
Worth’s North Side high school, re-

On the second play from scrim

right into the brunt of the rain for
16 yards to the TCU five, and on
the next play passed to Pascuzzi
two yards deep in the end zone
for the score with 4:35 left in the
half. Pascuzzi’s try for the extra
point was low and the score re
mained 6-0 at the half.
The first-year Aggies had anoth
er touchdown before the fans got
settled in their seats in the third
period. Fish tackle Leo Wotipka,
from Baytown, recovered a TCU
fumble on the Wog 37. After pick
ing up five on first down, Delfeld
took Hall’s pitchout and raced 33
yards behind Pascuzzi’s block to
pay dirt. Pascuzzi split the up
rights and the scoreboard read
13-0.
TCU put together four first
downs after the ensuing kickoff

the Fish 15.
Paced by quarterback Hathorn
and halfback Larry Minaldi, A&M

but a 10-yard loss and an incom
plete pass stopped the drive.
Aggie halfback Gene Jones got
things started early in the fourth
quarter as he swiped Enis’ pass
and returned 10 yards to the Wog
35. Five plays later, Hall, now at
left halfback, took a hand-off from
quarterback Hal Sandeur and shot
over left guard untouched for a
touchdown with 12:20 remaining in
the game. Pascuzzi converted.
Bobby Murray recovered an Ag
