The 1959-60 freshmen at A&M
will be on “hallowed” ground at
Aggieland. For it has been over
this small plot of earth at College
Station that some of the nation’s
outstanding leaders have walked.
It has been over these few acres
that many former students first
received that valuable training in
leadership, disciplin6 and know)
edge. The freshmen of today is
little different from the freshman
of 1910, 1920 or 1930. For the
most part, all have come from var
ious sections of Texas and from all
types of economic backgrounds.
However, it is safe to say that
many were farm boys without
much money, boys who “worked
their way through” at A&M.
To name all of the successful
graduates of Aggieland would re
quire a volume; to tell the story
of each Aggie would require a li-

Serving Texas Aggies'
brary. Their accomplishments in
the world of business, industry,
the military and other fields are
truly outstanding.
In the military field, for ex
ample, many “former freshmen”
have been eminently successful.
Gen. O. P. Weyland, Class of ’23,
until recently was commanding
General of the Tactical Air Com
mand. Lt Gen. Bernard A. Schri
ever, Class of ’31, is commander
of the U. S. Air Missiles Pro
gram. Maj. Gen. Alvin A. Lued-
eke, Class of ’32, is general man
ager of the Atomic Energy Com
mission. This is to name only
three who at one time were Ag
gies — just entering freshmen.
These were men who worried and
tussled over classroom work, men
much like the freshmen of ’59.
A&M has had many outstanding
graduates in the field of educa
tion. Gen. A. D. Bruce, Class of
’16, is chancellor of the University
of Houston. Dr. William E. Mor
gan, Class of ’30, is president of
Cdlorado State University. These
were students who took ROTC
training here; who studied at the
library; who ate their meals at
the mess hall.
The public utlities industry con
tains many A&M graduates who
hold high positions. For instance,
E. H. Leavey, Class of ’15, is
chairman of the board of Inter
national Telephone and Telegraph.
Lester T. Potter, Class of ’28, is
president of Lone Star Gas Com
pany. J. B. Thomas, Class of ’12,
is president of Texas Electric
Service Company. W. W. Lynch,
Class of ’22, is president of Texas
Power and Light Company. J. L.
Bates, Class of ’20, is president of
Central Power and Light Com
pany. Price Campbell, Class of
’13, is president of West Texas
Utility Company. These few ex
amples indicate that this is a field
ivhere Aggies have “made good.”
Bruce, ’16
At one time they were young men
just out of high school who came
to Aggieland to begin their higher
education—men who had the de
termination to apply themselves
and to succeed.
The oil industry is another field
where Aggies have made their
way to the top. J. W. Foley, Class
of ’32 is president of Texaco, Inc.
J. H. Dunn, Class of '25, is presi
dent of Shamrock Oil and Gas
Company. W. C. McGee, Jr.,
Class of ’31, is president of Ten
nessee Gas Pipeline Company. J.
L. Sewell, Class of ’27, is presi
dent of Delhi-Taylor Oil Company.
Delbert Brockett, Class of ’34, is
president of British-American Oil
Company. W. T. Askew, Class of
’31 is president of Sun Oil Com
pany of Canada. W. T. Doherty,
Class of ’22, is president of the
Mound Company. These men look
back to their days at Aggieland
with pride and remember that they,
too, were once freshmen who had
a lot to do and a lot to look for
ward to.
Former students like H. A. Saw
yer, Class of ’16, president of Lone
Star Cement Company; Tyree L.
Bell, Class of '13, president of
Austin Road Company; J. W. As
ton, Class of ’33, president of Re
public National Bank; George
Mitchell, Class of ’40, president of
Christi-Mitchell-Mitchell; M. T.
Halbouty, Class of ’30, petroleum
engineer and geologist and Leon
ard S. Hobbs, Class of ’16, vice
president of United Aircraft Com
pany, have proved themselves suc
cessful. They, like the others,
walked the drill field, studied late
at night and participated in the
affairs of the student body very
much like the freshmen of 1959-60
will do.
This year’s freshmen will walk
over ground where these and
countless others have walked dur
ing the past 83 years. These
freshmen will one day be among
the leaders of our country. As
they make this ascent they will
be extended a helping hand by the
former students who are already
on top for the closeness which has
become the “spirit ojl Aggieland”
never dies in a person.
