Varsity-Town "Coolers’' of Milliken’s Dacron and worsted
give you the wrinkle-resisting advantages of this ideal blend
of 55% Dacron with 45% worsted and the important "plus"
of distinctive Varsity-Town styling, silk-sparked decoration
in new patterns and hand needled edges on rich solid tones.

Represents the Views of the Student Editors
Editor,
The Battalion:
I have known A&M students and
exes for many years but had not
known the spirit you fellows talk
about. There are not words to
express how much the spirit has
meant to us now that we have had
such a personal contact with it.
At the beginning of the year, like
a lot of freshmen, Bill was home
sick at times and occasionally not
sure that he liked A&M. I thought
that you would like to know that a
few days aftef^the accident he told
me, “Dad, you know enough of that
Aggie Spirit rubbed off on me that
I couldn’t ever be satisfied going
to school anywhere other than
than A&M.”
Our heartfelt thanks:
To the Cadet Corps—
For your prayers and prayers
meetings; your blood donations;
your many trips to Houston to visit
Bill; your letters, cards, and words
of cheerful encouragement and
your wonderful generosity portray
ed by your financial help.
To the Staff—
For interest and consideration of
the faculty and college administra
tors the prompt and efficient care
given Bill following the accident by
members of the Physical Education
Department, the college medical
staff and the ambulance service.
For all these things, Bill, my
wife, and I will be eternally grate
ful. •
We feel that Bill is receiving the
best medical care and with God’s
help w-e hope he can make a rapid
recovery. When I checked Bill out
of the dormitory there was a card
over his desk which read: “I can
do all things through Christ which
strengtheneth me.” Philippinas
4:13.
This is our hope.
