HARGROVE Exactly 20 years ago last Saturday, Reveille I, the small black and white dog who served as the Aggie mascot for over a decade, died of old age in the Veterinary Hospital of A&M College. The original “Rev,” who died Jan. 18, 1944, was buried with full military honors at 5:30 the following afternoon at the main entrance to Kyle Field, so that she could always see the score- board. The band and the Corps took part in the simple ceremony. The processional was led by the Band playing “The Spirit of Ag- gieland,” followed by “Silver Taps.” A moment of silence was followed by the recessional to the tune of the “Aggie War Hymn.” Reveille I made the campus her home in 1931. She was adopted by a group of Aggies who ac cidentally ran over her en route to College Station for the opening of the school year. The pup, who was called ’’Home Brew” during Agronomy Group To Tour Valley, Parts Of Mexico About 35 members of the Stu dent Agronomy Society will tour the Rio Grande Valley and parts of Mexico Jan. 26-30. They will be accompanied by Dr. H. E. Hampton, and J. F. Mills, of the Department of Soil and Crop Sciences. Roland Smith of Lawn, the so ciety’s reporter, said the group will arrive at Bayview in the Valley where the Central Power and Light Co. will provide hous ing and meals. Next are tours of the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station and the Soil and Water Conserva tion Research Farm at Weslaco, the Rio Farm near Elsa and the Frank Schuster Farm near San Juan. Other stops are the El Texano Ranch near Hildalgo, the Hayes- Sammons Chemical Co. at Mission, and a tour of comercial produce facilities. Smith said one of the main attractions of the trip will be a full day’s excursion into Mexico. Arangements have been made by Jose Sarmiento, prominent Mata- moros business and former stu dent. The students will deep sea fish out of Port Isabel on the last day. Society officers in addition to Smith are John Gannaway of Haskell, president; R. L. McClung of Seymour, vice president; James Bartek of Temple; secretary; James Conner of Bryan, treasurer; and James Fuchs of Ballinger, parliamentarian. her first few hours at Aggieland, received her permanent name as a result of howling indignantly upon being awakened by the sharp notes of “Reveille” being blown by the bugler at dawn the next morning. She became the of ficial mascot after sneaking into Kyle Field ahead of the Band and “stealing the show” at half time of the first football game, winning the hearts of the cadets as well as those of scores of fans present that afternoon. For over a decade, Rev reigned as undisputed “Queen of Aggie land.” During this time she served as mascot to the National Champ ionship football of 1939, a movie star in “We’ve Never Been Licked,” a 4-Star General in the K-9 Corps division of the WAGS and a show dog who performed with the “World’s Largest March ing Military Band.” DURING THESE years, Rev had free run of the entire campus. She had access to all buildings and classrooms and once almost caused a riot when a poorly-informed cook attempted to oust her from Sbisa Mess Hall. She slept where she pleased, and the unfortunate cadet whose bunk she chose found another place to sleep that night, whether he was a senior or a fish. The friendly canine had learned early that the khaki-clad men were her friends, the personal pet of each one of them and especially the friend of the homesick fish. When old age finally caught up with Reveille, the news of her passing was carried in newspapers and radio broadcasts across the entire world. Letters, telegrams and flowers were sent from all over the nation. A successful heir to the throne of Reveille I never appeared until January, 1952, when Arthur Wein- ert, class of ’00, donated Reveille II, a collie pup, to A&M. Although she has done much toward filling the place left by her forebearer, to many Exes she will never live up to the original Reveille. U.S. Health Service Gives A&M Grant The U. S. Public Health Service has granted A&M University $23,- 490 for cottonseed research, Dr. R. E. Patterson, director of the Agricultural Experiment Station, has announced. The project is titled “Harvest- Aid Chemical Residues in Cotton seed.” Principal investigators are Dr. C. S. Miller, assistant professor, and Dr. Mohamed M. Aboul-Ela, both of the Department of Plant Sciences.
