THE BATTALION Page 6 College Station, Texas Thursday, January 12, 1961 John Henry Faulk: Sports Banquet MC The master of cei’emonies for the fall sports banquet to be held in Sbisa Dining Hall Saturday night will be John Henry Faulk. Although Faulk is nationally known as a humorist, his career began with emphasis on the serious side of life. An authority on the language and folklore of our American heritage, he taught Eng lish at the University of Texas. He lectured a class in philosophy at Yale. And, on a Rosenwald Fellow ship he collected Southern folklore and songs for the Library of Con gress. Early in World War II, he served in the American Merchant Marine, sailing on oil tankers to England. After his ship was torpedoed, he became an assistant field director for the American Red Cross in the Middle East. Later, he was ac cepted in the Armed Forces on limited service and served in the Medical Corps of the United States Army. John Henry Faulk . . . compared to Mark Twain Twelve Years on Radio Then Faulk began to chop in mighty tall cotton, as his relatives would say, in radio and television. For twelve years he had his own programs on national networks, originating in the New York stu dios of the Columbia Broadcasting System, the National Broadcasting Company, and the American Broad casting Company.

Nothing definite has been re leased as to the hiring of any new athletic staff members* but there is a strong chance that Ty Bain of Kilgore High School will be named to one of the positions. It was learned yesterday that Bain has resigned his present po sition at Kilgore, effective Jan. 20 and althought he didn’t name a school, he said he will accept a position in the Southwest Con ference. Bain began his coaching career in Jasper after graduating from Texas Tech. He only stayed at Jasper one year after a 5-5 sea son. Next he was coach in his hometown of Mexia and in three years compiled a 30-6 record, win ning three district championships and going to the state finals. For the last nine years the 43- year-old Bain has been in Kilgore where he compiled a 63-28-3 rec ord. dialect to the interpreting of America’s commonly experienced culture. His uniqueness as an en tertainer is that of the folklorist whose tall tales are coated with layers of commonly held ideas, values and behavior patterns. Like Jayne Mansfield and Presi dent Eisenhower who, according to Faulk, “got too big for the state to hold them,” the humorist was born in Texas. Talks About Texas And the speeches he now makes I before audiences all over the coun- j try are embellished with blue bonnets and mockingbirds, remi niscent of barbecues and political rallies, full of hound dogs and long- ' horns and an assortment of kin- : folks. Living now in Austin, where i he and his wife, Lynne, have an'i advertising business, he absorbs i what he calls the bittersweet flavor i of the region and presents it with his own philosophy. In Will Rogers Class Critics have often compared Faulk to Will Rogers and Mark Twain, whose humor also served up great truths and pinpointed sig- j nificant facts in the day’s news. Even though he quotes a cousin “whose mind is no bigger than a blackeyed pea” or an old preacher who seems to place the Battle of the Philistines near Dallas, he sug gests universal themes on which the mind may linger and the heart may dwell long after the immediate laughter he inspires.
