Review
The following editorial was carried in the Feb. 10 issue
of The Houstonian, student newspaper of Sam Houston State
College in Huntsville:
“ ‘We take care of our own. *
“A few short week ago a tradition was laid to rest at
the foot of Old Main when Tripod, a three legged Heinz variety
mongrel, died.
“Plans have been made to buy a stone marker for his
grave. At least $200 is needed. Only $19.25 has been donated.
“And who were the doners? College students? Three of
the major contributors were the bookstore, a Huntsville lady,
and an Aggie!
“If Tripod is to have a gravestone, the rest of the money
must come from the various professional and social organiza
tions and individuals.
“Then we’ll be able to say:
“ ‘We take care of our own.”
★ ★ ★
Every Ag, prof and dining hall employee on the A&M
campus knows OUR Tripod, though few, we would wager,
know his story. But how many knew of the Tripod who, until
his death Jan. 9, was the unofficial mascot at Sam Houston
State?
The story of Sam Houston’s Tripod makes us wonder if
perhaps the two three-legged dogs might not be related.
Possibly even half-brothers. After all, the father of both
dogs was obviously a rover.
Both dogs were the same color—a mustard-yellow. Both
dogs were missing their left front leg. And listen to this
about Houston Tripod taken from the Houston Post.
“Tripod played no favorites. He was independent to be
gin with, and he was never changed by the affection and at
tention displayed by the students. He formed no attach
ments—you fed him, he wagged his tail and moved on. He
always moved on.”
That Tripod came to Sam Houston 14 years ago. His loss
was understandably great. We hope he gets his headstone.
