In Mardi Gras Parade Ross Volunteers Receive Good Comments on March By ROBBIE GOODWIN Battalion News Editor The Ross Volunteers returned Wednesday from four days at New Orleans and the Mardi Gras. The company arrived at Camp Leroy Johnson on the banks of Lake Pontchartrain Saturday and Sunday. Several other schools stayed at the camp, including Citadel from Virginia, several high schools and the Lowman Rifles from Sam Houston State College. Greeted at Dinner The New Orleans Hometown Club hosted the group at a dinner Monday in Arnaud’s Restaurant. They were welcomed to the city by Councilman Fred Castlebury, who gave commander Wade Dover an honorary membership. John Cuthrell, president of the club, served as master of ceremonies at the dinner. He introduced Dr. Dick Winters, who gave the group a talk on some background on the parades and activities of the Mardi Gras.

But there’s noth ing moot about his prefer ences in dress. He finds that when he’s comfortable, he can trap a witness and sway a jury like Clarence Darrow. So he always wears Jockey brand briefs while preparing his briefs. Exclusive Jockey tailoring gives him a bonus of comfort he gets in no other underwear. Fine Jockey combed cotton is more ab sorbent, smoother fitting, too. To look your best, feel your best, take a tip from Tort. Always insist on Jockey brand briefs, $1.25.

The Spirit ended the ceremonies. Six Miles of Marching The parade began rolling at 10:30 with the RV’s following the police guard. Six miles and three stops later the group reached the new City Hall. As they marched by the mayor’s stand, a colonel from New Orleans told another by stander, “By George, you can’t beat that!” All along the route crowds of people pressed in from all sides, and several comments were heard. The group received many rounds of applause as they marched and performed their maneuvers. After the March The parade was over about 1:15 p.m., but the buses were held up by traffic until 3 p.m. It was cold and many of the Aggies passed the time by hailing the passing floats and collecting souvenirs of the parade. Many of the Aggies attended the Rex Ball Tuesday night in the City Auditorium. Commander Wade Dover said last night that, the ball was color ful and a spectacle with its pro cessions and dancing. Sears Praised For Promoting Better Relation The Sears-Roebuck Foundation was praised Wednesday in Bryan as promoting improved relations between Mexico and the United States. The plaudits came during a banquet at the Briarcrest Country Club held in honor of 12 vistors from Mexico’s National School of Agriculture and 11 A&M student recipients of Sears Scholarship Awards. Sears sponsors many agricul tural awards and activities for ag ricultural students, among them being the scholarships, an annual trip to Mexico for a group of A&M students and a reciprocal trip to Texas for students at the National School of Agriculture in Mexico. ‘Standard of Learning’ Jose M. de la Puente Espinosa, a forestry professor accompanying the Mexican students, said the Sears program is helping the “standard of learning” at the Na tional School of Agriculture. Each student making the trip to Tex as, he said, is selected on the basis of high scholastic standing. President Earl Rudder said no other scholarship system offers Aggie students more insipration than does the Sears Program. Grant Winners Scholarship winners were James E. Ward of Houston; Arthur Crocker, Godley; Bob Carter, De catur; George W. Powell, Kop- perl; Melvin C. Young, Lockhart; Alfred W. Hughlet, Amarillo; James A. Dotson, Hearne; Lee Stanley, Raymondville; James E. E. Wright, Kerrville; Gary P. Willeford, Garland; and James E. Schroeder of Winters. An A&M student, Jose L. Buen- teloo of Matamoros, acted as speaker-interpreter at the ban quet. Cal Johnson, director of South western public relations of the Sears Foundation, said a trip to Mexico in June is being organized for a group of A&M agriculture students. Leave for Beeville After visiting Reaching and re search facilities at the college, the Mexican students left Thursday to tour the Beeville Experiment Station, the Rook Ranch at Re fugio and the King Ranch before returning to their home school. ^Jhe Olympia TYPEWRITERS Guaranteed As Long As You Are At A&M OTIS MCDONALD’S BRYAN BUSINESS MACHINES THE BATTALION Friday, March 4, 1960 College Station, Texas Page 3 American Cancer Society Sets WidelyAcclaimed Film March 10 A Long March Platoon Leader Joe Deeper leads the third through crowds like this thronging the platoon through the pressing crowd in the streets.

F uchsT oAddressA C SMarch 11 Dr. Richard Fuchs, assistant to the chairman of the Department of Chemistry at the University of Texas, will address the A&M-Bay- lor Section of the American Chem ical Society at 7:45 p.m., Friday, March 11, in Room 231 of the Chemisty Building, according to John B. Beckham, associate pro fessor in the Department of Chem istry and secretary of the local ACS section. Fuchs will speak on “Ring Open ing Reactions of Epioxides.” “In his talk, Fuchs will note that the ring opening reactions of 1,2- epoxides have become increasingly important in recent years, both in synthesis and in mechanistic stud ies. The highly strained three- membered rings are attacked by nucleophilic, electrophilic and rad ical reagents to give a large va riety of products,” Beckham ex plained. Fuchs’ has contributed research articles in the fields of organo- metallic chemistry, epoxide ring opening and kinetics of displace ment reactions. He is a member of the Ameri can Chemical Society, Sigma Xi, Phi Lambda Upsilon and Alpha Chi Sigma. In 1958-59 he was secretary of the Central Texas ACS Section.
