Seven Letter men Return
Tigers Begin Workouts
Only seven returning lettermen
will be among the expected 32
member A&M Consolidated Tiger
squad that will greet Head
Coach Horace Schaffer and his
assistants . Monday, as the grid
sport gets underway locally.
The Tigers will go through
twice-a-day workouts beginning
Monday and continuing until the
start of school. Schaffer, Line
Coach Larry Hayes, and Backfield
Coach Ed Logan will put the
Bengals through their paces every
day at 7:30 a.m. and 5 p.m.
The main problem facing the
coaching crew appears to be in the
line, where three lettermen return
for the 1956 season. Garland An
drews, senior guard, Steadman
Davis, junior center and winner of
the Best Blocker Award last year,
and David McNeely, junior guard,
ate the only ’55 monogram winners
in the forward wall. The Tigers
were dealt a rough blow when
they lost sophomore tackle John
Beaty, considered to be one of the
squad’s most promising lineman,
for the season, as he received a
broken leg earlier this summer.
In the backfield, the TigerS ap
pear to be in better shape at the
present time with four returning
lettermen. Bill Hall, senior halfback
who missed most of the ’55 season
with injuries, Bill Kavanaugh, jun
ior halfback, Edgar Feldman,
sophomore quarterback, and Alton
Arnold, soph halfback, foi’m a
“solid core” in the backfield.
For the first time, the Tigers
will be competing in Class AA this
year. At the recent Texas High
School Coaching School in Lub
bock, the Navasota Rattlers were
picked for the top spot in District
23-AA, the loop in which the
Bengals will be playing.
Although neither Navasota nor
any of the other schools in the
league, Caldwell, Bellville, and
Cypress-Fairbanks, were in Class
A last year as were the Tigers, two

College Station
Served A&M
For 18 Years
College Station, now a thriv
ing city with a population of
approximately 7,000 excluding
the campus, has served Texas
A&M for nearly 18 years.
Although a young city, College
Station has already established a
fine record. One of its most out
standing accomplishments is the
budget, now standing at over $1
million.
From its birth in October 1938
until 1944, College Station has had
two mayors. Since then a city man
ager type of government has been
adopted. This type of government
is composed of a mayor and six
councilmen. Ernest Langford has
remained in office as mayor of
College Station since April 1942.
He is also head of A&M’s Archi
tecture Department.
College Station, represented by
three major areas, borders A&M
on every side except the west. The
South side, which is the oldest
portion of the city, is made up of
College Park, Breezy Heights, West
Park and Oakwood additions.
Second in age but first in size
is the East side which is made up
of College Hills, Woodland, Ring-
hoffer, Kelley, and Cooner addi
tions.
On the North side is the Cul
pepper, Boyett and Tauber addi
tions; the business area; the
churches and the city hall.
Each area has a smaller busi
ness and shopping center of its
own.
Mayor Langford said the city’s
slogan is “The home of the fighting
Texas Aggies” and the officials of
College Station try to make it just
that to all students.

Rec Council Program A Success
The curtain came down last week
on the most successful summer pro
gram in the history of the Col
lege Station Recreation Council.
A new part of the program,
bowling, had 124 entries. The
8-weeks course, with John Geiger
as instructor, was divided in the
following manner: three weeks of
instruction followed by five weeks
of actual competition.
Dick and Susan Dowell instruc
ted the tumbling classes and had
a total of about 80 participants.
At the closing exercises, a demon
stration by Rosemary Thompson
and Margaret Brown brought a
standing ovation from tne aggies.
Recreation council advisor x o r
tumbling was Bill Hensel.
Mr. and Mrs. Joe lagan guided
two of the council’s activities —
golf and the pre-school program,
respectively. Golf had 42 taking
part, while 40 participated in Mrs.
Fagan’s acticity.
Baseball and softball also enter
ed into the program. With Flake
Fisher doing the organizing, a
four-team softball league played a
round-robin schedule. Adults
formed the majority of the parti
cipants in this sport. Also being
supported by the x.ccreation Coun
cil were the ibcai mtue League
and American Bcgion baseball and
volleyball.
For the first time, the T w i n
City Junior Rifle Club, which was
chartered in 1955, carried its pro
gram in cooperation with the
council. Postal matches were held
with Dallas and Houston. Under
the direction of Sid Loveless,, who
1 was assisted by Mac Prescott, Ser-
1 gean Lockey, Rev. Charles Fowler,
Prank McCoy, Charles Willis,
i Charles LaMotte, and Shirley Can
non, the club held its practice ses
sions at Pleasant Acres.
Coached by Horace Schaffer, lo
cal tennis players took part in five
out-of-town meets, including the
Junior Olympics and the State
Junior Development Tourney. This
sport was held on the A&M College
Concrete Courts.
The council also sponsored sev
eral otl«er activities, such as base
ball and tumbling for Lincoln
School, a community picnic and
fireworks display on July 4 and a
Christmas party last year.

Have you looked at a church lately?
To almost everyone, the sight of a
slender steeple raised to the sky
evokes certain emotions — awe, per
haps, nostalgia, maybe—the sense that
by not going to church lately, you’ve
been missing something!
Next time jmu see a church, take a
good look . . . and let yourself really
feel what you see. If that makes you
decide not only to look at the outside
but also to go inside, that will be all to
the good. For no matter how lovely a
home you may live in, it can’t compare
with God’s House. If you open the
door, you’ll find that, no matter how
long you’ve been away, the welcome is
warmer and more wonderful than
you’ll find anywhere else.
THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . .
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is ’.he greatest fac
tor on earth for the building of
character and good citizenship. It
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
