THE BATTALION
Reveille To Celebrate 13th Bonfire
By JERRY COOPER
Special Writer
A female resident of A&M will
be an honored guest Tuesday
night when the torch is put to
the 1964 Aggie Bonfire and she
is not a Maggie.
The female is, of course, a
tan and white (purebred) Collie
named Reveille II.
Bonfires are a familiar part
of Aggieland for “Rev,” as her

Aggie friends prefer to call her.
She has witnessed 13 bonfires
since January 1952, when she was
officially named the Aggie mas
cot.
The story of the original
Reveille is told often among Ag
gies. In fact, both dogs have
more scrapbook news clippings
than most most of the faculty
members at Aggieland.
Reveille’s career began taking
shape on a fall evening in 1931.
A carload of Aggies were on
their way to College Station for
the start of school when a small
black and white puppy ran in
front of their Model T Ford.
Unable to avoid the pup the
Aggies piled out of the car as
soon as they could stop. When
they reached her, she quit yelp
ing, wagged her tail and held
up an injured paw for inspection.
It was a scene that just couldn’t
be ignored. What else could they
do but bring her on to school
with them?
That night Reveille I broke
her first college regulation by
sleeping in the dormitory. She
won her name the next morning
when the bugler’s call for reveille
caused her to start howling.
Rev immediately set about mak
ing new friends and getting to
know her new home. These new
friends, the khaki-clad Aggies,
came to her aid more than once.
When a cook first saw the
pooch, he told one of the Aggies
to “get her out of the mess hall.”
He meekly took back his demand,
however, when several hundred
Aggies stood up for Rev.
On a Corps Trip, the small
mongrel was stretched out on a
seat on the train. A conductor,
taking up tickets almost was
evicted from his own train when

Sneaking onto Kyle Field dur
ing half-time at the first foot
ball game that year Rev won the
hearts of the Aggies as well
as those of the spectators when
she romped to the music of the
Aggie Band.
Later that same year the Corps
decided to further immortalize
their mascot. Rank in the armed
services could be purchased for
a dog, ranging in price from $1
for private to $100 for a general’s
commission. Raised and educated
at the world’s largest military
school, Rev was definitely quali
fied to be a general. In a short
time, Reveille became a four-
star “ladygeneral” in the K-9
Corps, with a collar showing her
rank.
When Reveille I died on Jan.
18, 1944, a complete military
funeral was held in the middle of
Kyle field. Her remains were

Arch Majors Go Fly Kites
Students jokingly call the pro
ject second year kite flying, but
the School of Architecture prefers
to class it as a stimulus for
creative thinking.
Kite flying was only a minor
part of the project recently under
taken by 80 second year archi
tecture design students under sup
ervision of Assistant Professors
David Woodcock and Ralph Clam-
pitt.
Woodcock and Clampitt set up
the project to promote group co
operation. They contend that most
second year students are used to
working individually, and need to
learn how to work together in the
team effort necessary in the pro
fession of architecture.
Students were divided into
groups of three or five to work
on two compulsory problems and as
many bonus problems as they
chose. Compulsory problems called
for each group to design and build
an original kite and to create an
educational toy for First Graders.
Under the rules, all kites had to
fly. Some didn’t at first, but sec
ond chances in designing the kites
were allowed. Models of the First
Grade toys had to prove functional
as well as educational.
Each group was allowed three
laboratory periods, or 12 hours
of classtime, in addition to as much
additional time as each group chose
to give, in completing the projects.
Results were pleasing to the in
structors. “They did very well
indeed,” Woodcock commented,
“and we may repeat the project foi
future classes.”
Woodcock called the kite prob.
lem “Only a vehicle to stimulati
creative thinking.” He commended
the serious attitude in which stu
dents tackled the work. The stu
dents could have been flippant in
a project of this type, but they
were serious. They talked with
First Grade students and teachers
at A&M Consolidated as well as
with people in the Department of
Education in determining their
course of action.”
Fourteen of 17 kites flew the
first time out. Some crashed due
to a lack of understanding of
principle . Further design and re
building helped students achieve
the skyborne aim for their kites
