INGE ON DOUBLE SHIFT
NEW YORK CP)—William Inge,
prizewinning playwright who has)
previously specialized in moving
character studies, is busy with a
double shift of activities.
He is working on a novel and is
also pondering a musical fantasy.
The projected locale of the latter
would be New Jersey, which would
mark a switch from Ingle’s pre
vious stage concentration on mid-
western themes.

Two Aggie Marine platoon lead
er candidates, Arthur Reynolds and
Roger Darley, upheld the rough
and ready tradition of the Marine
Corps in the best leatherneck style
when they took part in a recent
2-day march through the “Big
Thicket” area of East Texas.
Reynolds, a junior from El Paso,
and Darley, a Maroon Band fresh
man from San Antonio, participat
ed in the 40-mile hike April 18 and
19 along with approximately 125
other members of the 6th Marine
Infantry Battalion reserve unit.
The non-tactical march carried the
men through several miles of vir
tually virgin territory, according
to Darley.
“There was nothing but swamp
almost every inch of way, ranging
from ankle to waist deep. We rare
ly found a dry spot,” Darley said.
The group shoved off on the trek
from Daisetta at 9 on Saturday
morning, April 18 with Bill Daniel,
brother of Governor Price Daniel,
and six local cowhands as guides.
The route which the group was to
follow to their destination, Gray-
burg, had been previously explored
by Daniel, Reynolds said.

through without guides or a defi
nite course to follow,” he added.
Men making the hike cooked
meals from canned goods and ra
tions which they packed them
selves. Along with food, each man
carried two canteens, a knife, a
poncho, cooking utensils and a
shelter half.
Saturday night’s meal for the
two men consisted of a wild boar,
which Daniel had roped and killed
that afternoon. Along with numer
ous wild boar, the group saw sev
eral snakes, mostly copperheads
and water moccasins, according to
Reynolds.
“The snakes didn’t cause as
much trouble as the ticks and mos
quitoes, though,” he commented.
At one time during the hike the
“gyrenes” had to cross a creek by
means of a rope which had been
stretched to the opposite shore.
The group often had to walk far
out of its way in order to ford
especially deep creeks and swampy
areas, they said.
One point of interest for the
two Aggies was a burned out cabin
which they encountered the first
day of the trip. They were inform
ed that the cabin had previously
been inhabited by a man who had
robbed the bank in Daisetta. The
local law officers had smoked the
fugitive from his hideout, they
were told.
The group reached its destina
tion, Grayburg, about 4:30 Sunday
afternoon. The unit had lost two
photographers and a medical man
during the course of the hike, who
had to be taken back to Daisetta.
The hikers were treated to cof
fee and doughnuts after their ar
rival at Grayburg, according to
Reynolds. The two men agreed
that they couldn’t remember any
thing that tasted as good as that
coffee.
