THE BATTALION
Hometown Clubs Draw Many Aggies
Of the many extra-curricular
activities on the A&M campus,
one of the most important to
freshmen is the hometown and
area clubs.
These clubs are the largest
single student activity on the
campus. Approximately 90 per
cent of the student body partici
pates in some way in a hometown
club.
The clubs offer the student an
opportunity to widen his contacts
and experiences, Through par
ticipation in his hometown club,
the student gains the value of
leadership and cooperation.

various clubs are to encourage
high school graduates to attend

Paid Fireman
High tribute was paid yesterday
to Cled Warren, who has been with
the B&CU Department since 1922
and a member of the College’s vol
unteer fire department since that
time.
At a ceremony at the Fire Sta
tion, attended by members of the
Department and Pres. Earl Rud
der of the College, Mr. Warren
was presented a gift and lauded
as one of the College’s outstanding'
members ever since the day he
joined A&M.
Mr. Warren was due to retire in
September, this year, but his birth
day date was such that he will
finish out this school year, retir
ing September, 1961.
He was appointed fire chief in
1943 and in September, 1969, turn
ed over the duties to V. P. Phipps,
because of the need of a full time
fire chief and fire marshall at that
time.
In April, 1941, Mr. Warren was
custodian for a short time.
When he came to A&M in 1922
he was labor foreman and has held
that post with the B.&C.U. ever
since.
Talks were made by President
Rudder and Raymond Rogers, head
of the B.&C.U. Department.
Five Town Hall performances
have been booked for the 1960-61
school year by the office of Robert
L. Boone, Music Coordinator.
The lead-off presentation is set
Oct. 20 with Herb Shriner and
“Pops Americana.” This produc
tion is mounted within the setting
of a top-flight concert orchestra
and sparked by the delightful wit
and humor of Shriner, a long-time
television personality.
The second and last first se
mester presentation Nov. 17 brings
Ray Conniff’s “Concert in Stereo”
to G. Rollie White Coliseum. The
program will present the Conniff
singers and orchestra in a presen-

gram,” will be here following a

Two weeks later, Mar. 16, the
National Symphony Orchestra of
Washington, D.C., will appear. The
group, under the leadership of Ho
ward Mitchell, is reputedly one of
the handful of really great sym
phonic ensembles in the world.
The U. S. Air Force Band and
the Singing Sergeants will bring
the curtain down on Town Hall
performances Apr. 10. The serv
ice band and glee club has been
featured on ‘Serenade in Blue” ra
dio programs on national networks

sons in five continents.

dents and younger are $1.

fred Johnson of the Canterbury
Fellowship.
