“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.
Oral Polio Vaccine
Offered Students
Dr. Charles R. Lyons, director
of the University Hospital, said
Wednesday that students desiring
the Type I Oral Polio Vaccine
should contact the hospital this
week.
About 100 of the sugar tablets
are on hand and will be offered
to students and dependents on a
first come, first served basis, Dr.
Lyons said.
WHERE THERE’S SPRAY
BIG PINE KEY, Fla. <A>> —
Fire fighters here are asking
residents to take a second look
before reporting a blaze.
The engines have been called
out twice recently by citizens who
saw what they thought was smoke.
It turned out to be billows of in
secticide from a truck spraying
for mosquitoes.
