Esten, the Players have been rehearsing actively for over a month, getting the play ready for Friday and Sat urday nights. The Follies will be based on a medicine show theme, with the en- tra acts supplementing the sales pitches and drama, patterned much after shows of this calibre which were extremely prevalent in the Southwest many years ago. Salesmen will emerge from vari ous entrances, peddling bottles of “snake oil”; local “dignitaries” will be introduced on stage, and the Follies will contain all the glamor and festivity of an authen tic medicine show. The cast of over 30 entertainers will hold three rehearsals this week, with the dress rehearsal to morrow night, and the Follies Fri day and Saturday. Another entra act guaranteed to thrill spectators is the “Flying Tramps,” trampoline experts who have become popular as halftime performers during sports events in G. Rollie White Coliseum and else where. Presenting a 15-minute program of comedy action, the Tramps will exercise precision movements in the air from off their trampoline on the Guion Stage. Dave Woodard, drummer and magician of large renown, will perform two acts during the Fol lies, once as a drummer and sec ondly as mystifying magician. Woodard played drums with a jazz band at the World Fair in Brussels, Belgium, and has also become known as a popular enter tainer with his magic as well. Many other acts will provide an evening of pure entertainment for all attending the Aggie Follies, 1961.

CENTURY By The Associated Press Senate candidates plugged for votes Tuesday in widely-separated sections of Texas and announced intensive campaign schedules for the rest of the week. Sen. William Blakley conferred in Houston with campaign leaders and scheduled a night rally at in dustrial Freeport on the Gulf Coast. Thursday he goes to San Antonio for a full day of vote seeking. John Tower followed his Mon day night rally at Wichita Falls with handshaking stops drt route to Midland where he attended a night testitnonial dinner. Tower is the Republican hiid Blakley the Democratic candidate in the May 27 run-off election to succeed Lyndon Johnson. Blakley set up a West Texas tour beginning at San Angelo Fri day morning. He will be the guest at a noon barbecue, then move on to Colorado City, Sweetwater, Roscoe, Merkel and Abilene by plane and bus. A 13-county rally and dinner at Abilene will cap the day. Tower will speak at a Dallas Jaycee luncheon Wednesday fol lowed in the evening with a re ception and TV speech. Thursday the GOP candidate will record TV and radio speeches. Friday he will campaign in the Midland-Odessa area, and in the Abilene-El Paso region Saturday. Absentee voting in the election began Monday. It conti hues, through May 23. -At Austin,'^Coun ty Clerk Emilie Lemberg reported an unusually heavy turn-out for a special election. In Freeport Tuesday night Blak ley said he was gratified by the Senate Armed Services Committee action which added $525 million to military procurement authoriza tion for purchase of manned air craft for the Strategic Air Com mand. He said this would permit the Air Force to buy either B52 or B58 bombers provided subsequent ap propriations are made. In Houston, he said, “I think we should blockade Cuba — make it a total blockade if necessary. “We should furnish assistance to all of our Latin American neigfi-? hors to keep foseign ideologists from penetrating the Western world.”, | He said he favors the adminis tration’s proposal for $600 million in foreign aid to Latin American countries.
