By MICHAEL REYNOLDS | Battalion Staff Writer “Yes, sir, there have been quite a few changes around A&M since I got here,” said George L. Out law discussing bis 37 years of employment with the college as maintainance foreman for Duncan and Sbisa Dining Halls. Outlaw retired on Feb. 1. The physical plant, students con duct and types of students were the three areas in which Outlaw noted changes on the A&M cam pus. “I can still remember the acre or so of shacks that used to stand where Law and Puryear Halls are now. In the late 20’s we used to call that area Hollywood. Down on the other end of the campus, I can remember how the Agri culture Building just sat out there in the middle of a prairie,” said Outlaw. The retired foreman continued about the poor condition of streets around the campus and the trans portation available to students. “Students were not allowed to have cars on the campus then. They could own them but they had to make arrangements to keep them in town,” stated Outlaw. The biggest change that Out law noted was in the conduct of freshmen on the campus. “Of course there is not the type of hazing at A&M as there used to be but the fish just don’t speak any more like they used to. “Why, there wasn’t a person on the campus that the freshmen didn’t know; and they spoke to everyone that they passed and called them by name, even the profs and office workers,” con tinued Outlaw. There were only 2,400 students on the campus at that time, added Outlaw. “The boys as a whole haven’t changed too much, although we are getting a lot younger group of boys now and they are mostly from cities. We used to be almost one half agriculture majors and the rest were farmers sons too. “They used to do some pretty i eluded Outlaw, “but, I guess they | “I guess they will continue to. is an A&M and a Corps of Ca- crazy things around here,” con- ] still do.” | do crazy things as long as there dets,” said Outlaw.
