Varner & Sons Jewelers North Gate VI 6-5816 Silver Taps Ceremony Chills Former Editor (Editor's note: Though tradi tions are discussed in another section, Silver Taps, the most solemn of all A&M traditions, has been reserved for this first section. The following article details the personal reaction of Dan Louis, who was editor of The Battalion during 1963-64.) By DAN LOUIS JR. How many times have I gone through this same experience? I really don’t remember. Back down the line somewhere I lost count. I believe it might have been in the spring of '62 that I stopped counting. That was a bad one, that Aggie’s date also died in that wreck. But, unfortunately it’s time to observe one of Texas A&M Uni versity’s most beautiful traditions again. The one tradition that everyone wishes was never neces sary. It’s 10:20 p.m. and time for Aggie Silver Taps—this time for two students, both victims of the automobile. I’d better double check and make sure that all the lights are off in the office. It’s really going to be dark out there tonight, with all the lights turned off and no moon. Well the lights are off and all the boys are out in the hall waiting. At least I guess they are. Funny how a bunch of newspaper people who were chattering and rushing to get a paper put to gether can suddenly become so solemn, so sober, so aware of the loss of a fellow Aggie at 10:20— Silver Taps time. Of course three of those fellows had the job for talking with police, hospital of ficials, the victim’s friends and, most unforgettable, his family while they pulled the story to gether about the accidents. One can almost hear the cut ting north wind whisper a warn ing to all Aggies that are about to take to the highways for the Christmas Holidays. There is a deathly silence on the campus. As never in the past, Aggies are observing the tradition of not speaking during Silver Taps or while going to and coming from the ceremony. I can hear the scraping, click ing sound of the taps on the boots of the Ross Volunteer firing squad members as they march into position for their part in the ceremony. Silence shouts once again when the squad halts. Soft inaudible commands are followed by staccato striking of rifle butts against concrete as the Aggies position themselves and prepare to point their rifles to the heavens and fire. I feel myself growing even more rigid that I’ve been before this moment. I know what to expect. Then it comes—a row of short, brilliant flames jump to ward the heavens and then a sharp crack of rifle fire pierces my ears with such impact after the prolonged silence that there is a tingling throughout my entire body. Immediately behind the first, come two more loud cracks, 21 rifles have fired all totaled- seven at a time. The deadly silence drops on the campus again. Then from on the upper chambers of the gray-look- ing Academic Building comes the slow, mournful tone of taps- Aggie Silver Taps. Three times through. I can’t help it, my mind begins to shout over and over again, Why? Why? Why? did these Aggies have to die ? Their lives were ahead of them. There was much they still had to accomplish Before I have time to find answer to the age old question, I find myself clearing my throa: along with several thousand other Aggies. I’m reluctant to turn away. There must be an answer But, I know there isn’t, so I tun slowly and begin to drift back hi the office. I wonder, does every one else feel as I do at that mo ment.
