In agony and with one eye pierced by a shell fragment, he shouted for his men to follow him to the next house. “He was determined to stay in the fighting and did remain at the head of his platoon until forcibly evacuated. “By his disregard for personal safety, aggressiveness while suf fering from severe wounds, deter mined leadership, and supeib coui- age, Lieutenant Whiteley killed nine Germans, captured 23 more, and spearheaded an attack which cracked the core of enemy resis tance in a vital area.” Harrell’s citation in essence reads: Sergeant- William G. Harrell, serving with an assault group ol the first Battalion, Twenty-eighth Marines of the Fifth Marine Divis ion at Iwo Jima in March, 194.), was entrenched in a foxhole with a fellow Marine. During the night an attack by Japanese burst through the lines and surrounded his position. A wave of attackers charged unex pectedly and wounded both Mhi- ines. Oi'dering his wounded buddy to safety, Harrell drilled one attackei with a pistol and gasped a sput tering Japanese grenade near his head and thrust it at another. When Harrell was evacuated from his position the following To evaluate the all-round career advantages offered by the widely diversified activities at Divisions of North American Aviation, Inc.

The four who gave their lives during the conflict were Lloyd H. Hughes ’43,„. of . Corpus Christ!, a U.S. Air Force second lieutenant; George D. Keathley ’37, of Olney, a U.S. Army staff sergeant; Turney W. Leonard ’42, of Dallas, a U. S. Army first lieutenant and Thomas W. Fowler ’43, of Wichita Falls, a U.S. Army second lieutenant.

A&M is probably the only school in the U. S. to shov^ the Feldman Collection. It is the first time since the initial showing of the col lection that the paintings have been on exhibition in the U. S. Following the show here, the Feld man group will go on tour of the state and then tour the nation. In the Feldman Collection there are 54 paintings by Texas artists, representing the best in Texas Ait for 1956. 1 Paintings representing the best works of Schiwetz are being ex hibited in the MSC. He is a grad uate of A&M and received his Master’s degree in Architecture in 1922. Being a true Texan, Schiwetz prefers to paint pictures depicting the familiar scenes of the state. He depicts Texas as Texans see it and his paintings are known and loved all over the world. The Creative Ails Group will open the joint exhibition next Fri day and the pictures will be shown until Nov. 25. Paintings will be hung in the exhibit cases of the MSC main lounge, promenades and fountain room. This unique group of paintings have never been shown together anywhere in the U. S. On Campos with Max^hukan (Author of "Barefoot Boy With Cheek," etc.) A GUIDE FOR THE UNMONEYED R L. Sigafoos was a keen, ambitious lad, and when he finished high school he wished mightily to go on with his education. It seemed, however, a forlorn hope. Ci p failures had brought his father to the brink of disaster. (R L.’s father raised date palms which, m North Dakota is a form of agriculture fraught with risk.) Nor could R. L.’s mother help; she had grown torpid since the death of Rudolph Valentino. R. L. could go to college only if he worked his way through. This was a prospect that dismayed him. Racked with misgivings, R. L. paced the streets, P 0 ^ 1 " dering his dilemma. One day, walking and brooding, he came upon a park bench and sat down and lit a Philip Morris. (There is no occasion, happy or sad, pensive or exuberant, when Philip Morris is not entirely welcome, as you will discover when you go to your favorite tobacco counter and buy some.) R. L. was suddenly interrupted by a small, quavering voice which said, “My boy, you are troubled. Can I help ?’ Seated beside R. L. was a tiny, gnarled man with wispy, snow-white hair. His skin was almost transparent, showing a delicate tracery of fragile bones beneath. His back was bent, and his hands trembled. “Do you think, sir,” said R. L., “that a boy can work his way through college and still enjoy a rich, full campus life ?” “Why, bless you, son,” replied the stranger with a rheumy chuckle, “of course. In fact, I did it myself. “Was it very hard ?” asked R. L. “Yes, it was hard,” the stranger admitted. “But when One is young, all things are possible. I, for example, used to get up at five o’clock every morning to stoke the furnace at the SAE house. At six I had to milk the ewes at the school of animal husbandry. At seven I gave a fencing lesson to the Dean of Women. At eight I had a class in early Runic poets. At nine I gave haircuts a,t the Gamma Phi Beta house. At ten I had differential cal culus. At eleven I posed for a life class. At twelve I watered soup at the Union. At one I had a class in Oriental languages. At two I exercised the mice m psych lab At three I gave the Dean of Women another fencing lesson At four I had qualitative analysis. At five I went clamming. At six I cut meat for the foo ^ a “ teai ^ At seven I ushed at the movies. At eight I had my eais pierced so that at rune I could tell fortunes m a gypsy tea room. At ten I had a class in astronomy. At eleven I tucked in the football team. At twelve I studied and at thfee I went to sleep.” “Sir,” cried R. L., “I am moved and inspired by your shining example!” • ' / 1 “It was nothing,” Said the stranger modestly, shaking his frail white head. “It was'just hard work, and hard work never hurt anybody.” . . ' “Would you mind telling me, sir,” said R. L->. how 1 ' old you are now?” “Twenty-two.” said the stranger. ^ 1956 The makers of Philip Morris take pleasure in bringing you. this uncensored, free-wheeling column each week during the school year-and also in bringing you today's new Philip Morris, packed with natural tobacco goodness, lip end td tip ernd. ■ ■ -OT—
