THE GRAVEYARD—We realize that a newspaper print of Mrs. Emilita Terry’s painting,
“The Graveyard,” does not do it justice; but students can get a good view of it when the
Feldman art exhibit opens at the MSC Wednesday. Mrs. Terry has another painting in
the collection, “The Age of Innocence.” Both are mixed media paintings. An archi
tectural student, Chartier Newton, has a water color, “Stoked Up,” in the exhibit.
Opens Wednesday At MSC
Art Exhibit Entirely Texan
The D. D. Feldman Collection of
Contemporary Texas Art, which
will be shown at the Memorial Stu
dent Center from Nov. 23 to Dec. 8,
had its inception more than a year
ago when D. D. Feldman, a native
Texan and internationally known
oil operator, decided that a move
should be made to encourage Texas
artists. At the same time the peo
ple of Texas could get a chance to
see what Texans are doing in the
field of art.
Feldman commissioned Tom Dou
glas, prominent Hollywood design
er and a patron of art, to tour
Texas and buy 100 paintings from
Texas ai'tists.
When the collection was complet
ed it was judged at a private show
ing in Dallas by three impartial
judges—one from Los Angeles, one
from Chicago and one from New
York. Prizes of $1,500, $750 and
$500 were awarded to the top three
paintings.
Seventy-five of the 100 paintings
will be on exhibit in the main and
promenade display cases and the
main lounge of the Center. A&M
is the first college campus in Texas
where the paintings have been
shown, and it is expected that the
exhibit here will be viewed by moi’e
people than at any other place on
the state-wide tour.
This is one of the few times in
the history of art that a collection
of this magnitude has been brought
from a gallery to be exhibited to
the general public.
Included in the showing will be
two paintings by Mrs. Ralph Ter
ry, MSC art director, and one by
Chartier Newton, fifth year archi
tectural student.
The owner of the collection, Feld
man, will be hei'e Wednesday for
the opening of the exhibit, and a
reception in his honor will be that
afternoon in the Birch and Assem
bly Rooms in the MSC.
Hosts for the coffee are the MSC
Art Group, which sponsors art ex
hibits at the Student Center; the
Directorate and the Council. Sev
eral distinguished persons in the
field of art are expected to attend
this reception.
Novena Being Held
For ‘Jitterbug’
In unison with Newman Clubs
over the Southwest Conference the
A&M Newman Club began a No
vena of Mass and prayer for the
recovery of Bill (Jitterbug) Hen
derson yesterday, announced Tom
my Toudouze, president.
Henderson, former Aggie ath
letic star, is confined to the Vet
erans’ Hospital in Houston with
multiple sclerosis. He was honor
ed at the A&M-Rice football game
last week by the Houston A&M
Club.
The Novena, nine successive days
of prayer, devotion and attendance
at Mass, is in honor of Blessed
Martin de Porres, whose aid and
intercession is sought for Hender
son, Toudouze said.
“Catholic Aggies are especially
urged to attend this Novena,” said
Toudouze, “but all Aggies every
where should remember ‘Jitterbug’
in their prayers and pray for his
speedy recovery.”

Q liar re Is T ake

Battalion News Editor
A new crop of crises have arisen
in the ever changing game of stu
dent body versus student body in
some of the Southwest Conference
schools.
»
Our Frog friends are now strug
gling in the throes of juvenilism.
Theme for the new problem is
“Frogland for the Frogs.”
It seems that the local high
school pupils have invaded the
Frog Student Center and the Frogs
don’t like it.
Yet in a poll taken by their
school paper, 66 per cent of the
paying members of Frogland favor
having a Kid Day (strictly for just
us frogs though).
Evidently, the Frogs should make
it clear just when they are having
Kid Day since the Fort Worth high
school set has a hard time distin
guishing Kid Days from ordinary
days at TCU.
Keeping up with their bovine
brethren at Austin, TCU jumped
on the band wagon and now has
1,500 “cheering aids.” A generous
tobacco company is attributed with
donating the metal and cardboard
pseudo symbols of school spirit.
Texas
A new type reward for good
grades has been developed at the
co-educa'>>ional conservatory near
Austin.
As a congratulatory gesture to
ward one of their classmates who
made 100 on a trigonometry quiz,
seven students abducted the unpop
ular genius, tied a sack over his
head and dumped him out, 18 miles
in the country.
The victim said he thbught the
gang was out for revenge because
his 100 ruined the curve for the
class. He said the next highest
grade was 45.
Disciplinary action toward the
group was supposed to have been
taken by the University Discipli
nary Committee.
Elsewhere on the Forty Acres,
there have been numerous signs
reading: “We did it to Rice, let’s
do it twice.”
Last week, they had been altered
to read: “We did it to Rice, let’s
do it to Price.”
Maybe Coach Price is afraid of
the action taken against those who
make good at TU. And too, if the
red candles failed against TCU,
how could a mere mortal be ex
pected to do any better?

As every parent knows, learning to say
“thank you” is one of the elementary les
sons in a child’s home education. It is
page one in the book of good manners.
It is also one of the first lessons in a
person’s religious education. And here it
is something more than mere good man
ners.
In every age man’s spiritual insight can
be measured by his readiness to recognize
God as the source of strength and bless
ings, and by his eagerness to express his
gratitude to the Almighty. No one has
ever doubted the religious sincerity of our
Pilgrim fathers: they gave us Thanks
giving Day.
Today, in a world hungry for spirit
ual leadership, how much depends on
our faith in Gcd . . . and our ability
to turn to Him in gratitude and
prayer!
THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . .
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest fac
tor on earth for the building of
character and good citizenship, ft
is a storehouse of spiritual values.
Without a strong Church, neither
democracy nor civilization can
survive. There are four sound
reasons why every person should
attend services regularly and sup
port the Church. They are: (1)
For his own sake. (2) For his
children's sake. (3) For the sake
of his community and nation. (4)
For the sake of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and ma
terial support. Plan to go to
church regularly and read your
Bible daily.
