Rare Opportunity
The Men of Aggieland will have a rare opportunity
with the Saturday inauguration of President Earl Rudder
as the fourteenth president of Texas A&M.
The inauguration of a president of a college is com
parable to the college as the inauguration of the president
of the United States is to the people of this country.
Having the opportunity to take part in this inaugura
tion of the president of their alma mater should be a cher
ished moment in not only their college career but in the life
of the Men of Aggieland.
The Class of ’60 can count themselves among the 13
senior classes to take an active part in the inauguration
of one of the presidents of Texas A&M.
Members of the faculty and staff will probably hold
the inauguration Saturday as one of the high points in their
service to Texas A&M.
Some of the members of the faculty and staff will also
take an active part in the inauguration. Many of the col
leges and universities in the United States will be repre
sented at the inaugural ceremonies by members of the Texas
A&M faculty and staff.
All of those connected with Texas A&M should look
upon Saturday’s inauguration as an honor to take part in
and not just another of the many activities that annually
dot the college activity calendar.
Saturday’s inauguration will represent much- work by
many people both on and off the campus.
J. J. Woolket, head of the Department of Modern Lan
guages and chairman of the Inaugural Committee, and the
sixteen other members of his committee have been working
since last fall to insure the success of the inauguration. The
task of this committee has not been an easy one for it has
to take care of all the multitude of details connected with
such a ceremony. Everyone connected with Texas A&M
owe this committee a vote of thanks for their work.
Through the work of the Inaugural Committee some
148 colleges and universities in the United States will be
represented at the inauguration Saturday. Also some 55
learned societies and professional associations will have
members at the ceremonies.
In addition representatives of the United States and
Texas governments will be on hand for the occasion as will
members of the Association of Former Students, the student
body and private citizens of the state.
With all these distinguished visitors on the campus of
Texas A&M today and Saturday, once again the college and
the Men of Aggieland will be on display to show their finest
to insure the continuation of the excellent reputation of
Texas A&M.
Whether or not the Men of Aggieland, both Corps and
civilian, take advantage of being a witness to one of the big
moments in the history of Aggieland will not affect the
success of the inauguration, but if they do not, they will
have cheated themselves.

Another Move
The newly-formed Student Chamber of Commerce con-
linued on its organizational trail this past week in setting up
fin effective and accurate public relations program for Texas
A&M.
A president and vice president were elected this week
for the chamber and Dean of Engineering Fred J. Benson
has accepted the position of faculty advisor.
The chamber has been taking rapid moves to get off
the organizational platform and begin actual public relations
for Texas A&M. Moreover, the chamber will serve as a media
to pool all the ideas and aspects of the various departments
across the campus.
Ideas formulated will be utilized college-wide in an effort
to present a vivid and accurate picture of Texas A&M and
is activities.
Many visitors and observers do not receive an accurate
picture of Texas A&M and the organization will attempt to
give an overall picture of the College.
The Texas A&M Student Chamber of Commerce, with
continued intentions, should establish itself as a necessary
faction of the College.

that didn’t get smoked
■iv
here’s a lot of satisfaction in pointing out something good to a friend. That’s why
1 it often happens that one cigarette out of a pack of Dual Filter Tareytons never does
get smoked.
People break it open to demonstrate its unique Dual Filter containing Activated
Charcoal. They may not know why it works so well, hut they do know thk It delivers
far more than high filtration ... it brings out the best taste of the best tobaccos-as
no single filter can!
Try a pack of Tareytons. We believe the extra pleasure they bring will soon have
you passing the good word to your friends. 6
HERE’S HOW THE DUAL FILTER DOES IT:
1. It combines a unique Inner filter of ACTIVATED CHARCOAL
• • •-dMiniteJy proved to make ttesmoke of a r.jparPttP mild
and smooth . ..
2. with an efficient pure white outer filter. Together they bring
you the real thing in mildness and fine tobacco taste!
