Flow of Milk
Milk-hungry Aggies may cause themselves to be a lo+
hungrier, or thirstier, for milk if the present flow of milk
bottles does not cease.
The flow is from the college mess halls to the dormitor
ies, and mess hall workers have indicated a loss of up to 10
cases in a single night.
The average loss was reported to be about 100 bottles
a day.
To cure this loss, one step suggested or thought about
would be to cut out the two milks at night, an action that
would undoubtedly be very unpopular.
It’s ridiculous that such a thing should occur, anyway.
Very few persons are in such a rush that they can’t stop
long enough to drink their milk in the mess hall.
It’s like everything else—a good thing can be carried to
an extreme.
And carrying away 100 bottles of milk per day is carry
ing things to an impossible extreme.
The Student Senate’s Mess Hall Committee is working
on this problem. Give them a little help, fellows, and stop
the loss before anything drastic occurs.

A new Catholic church will soon
be built by St. Mary’s Chapel, said
the Rev. Charles W. Elmer.
Plans “for. the chapel are now
being drawiifup, he said. Construc
tion will probably start this sum
mer.
William E. Nash, architect for
the building, said that sketches
will soon be sent to the bishop of
this area for approval. The Most
Rev. Louis J. Reicher, Bishop of
the Austin Docese, must sanction
the plans before any construction
is undertaken.
The building’s architecture will
be colonial, said Nash. The chapel
will seat about 500, including 100

In back of the old chapel is St.
Mary’s Student Center, a recrea-
tional building which was built
two years ago. The colonial archi-
ttecture of the new chapel will not
match the modern architecture of
the Student Center. The new chap
el will be located one block north
of the Student Center, which is on
Spence Street. Land for the build
ing has already been purchased.
Letters
Battalion
In looking back upon my expe
rience of last week as a guest
speaker at the Religious Emphasis
Week at A&M, I find that 1 want
to express appreciation to the Tex
as Aggies, one and all, for their
outstanding kindness to me during
my visit. You have an unusually
splendid group of men at the col
lege. Seldom have I been so im
pressed by the excellence of the
student body as I was by the men
of Texas A&M. There is a whole
some, spiritual, sturdiness about
most of the students which is both
refreshing and exciting. Your col
lege is producing the kind of citi
zens that our country needs.
Not least was I impressed by the
fine cooperation between the ad
ministration, faculty and student
body in the development of your
Religious Emphasis Week Pro
gram. I felt that the attitude of
everyone involved was outstanding
ly fine. Your distinguished presi
dent, Dr. David Morgan, your most
able YMCA secretary, Mr. Gordon
Gay; your personnel officials like
Dean Kamm and Mr. Penberthy
and all the rest for their support
of this program, gave very real
significance to it.
In the future you will have one
