THE BATTALION Page 4 College Station, Texas Friday, December 7, 1962 Nonman Anderson Plans To Retire From Church Post By HAM McQUEEN The Rev. Norman Anderson, who first came to College Station in 1928, will retire from his posi tion as pastor of thp A&M Pres byterian Church Dec. 31. Anderson, a man who says that he doesn’t like to talk about him self, has a story of interest to m a ny Aggies, especially many of those who have attended the YMCA Fish camp. ‘One of my greatest experiences has been my participation at the freshman camp,” he said. Following his retirement, An derson plans to take it easy about three months then go into coun selling. He is interested in mari tal counselling, but says his pri mary interest is “just people in trouble.” His service to the college and ; students has merited him the honor of being the only pferson to re ceive a 25-year service pin from the College and yet not be on the payroll. Anderson has served as head of the Department of Religious Edu cation since 1930. He also served as chairman of the chapel building committee for the college and is a charter member of the College Station Kiwanis Club. The Anderson Room of the YMCA Building and Anderson St., which passes by A&M Consolidated Schools, are both named for him. He and his wife, the former Mary Dunlap, live at 208 Timber. They have a daughter, Tenny Wil- hem, and two sons Noeman J. and Fred G. The Andersons also have four granddaughters. State Courthouses Viewed By Book (Special To The Battalion) BROWNWOOD — “Courthouses of Texas,” a 260-page book show ing photographs of the courthous es in the 254 counties of the state has just been published here. Photographs of all the court houses were made over a five- year period by Clark Coursey, former Brownwood newspaper pu blisher, who has been editor of the monthly magazine, “County Progress,” for the past 20 years. The magazine is the official publi cation of the County Judges and Commissioners Association of Tex as. Coursey did .not keep a record of the miles traveled to snap pic tures of the 254 courthouses, but said it totaled many thousands. Of the book itself, Coursey said: “It won’t be rated as a work of art, but it could be classified as a feat of perseverance.” Anderson’s interest in children is shown by the' many things he does for them. Children in his neighborhood have taken over the swings, slides and other play things he built for his children when they were young. Son, Mother Reunited Five-year-old David Collins clings to his mother, Mrs. Catherine Collins, as he sees her for the first time in more than six months. The youngster was left in a Los Angeles bar Nov. 13 by his father, who had taken him from his St. Petersburg, Fla., home six months earlier.
