“Woodman, Woodman, spare
that tree,” went unheeded this
weekend as thousands of Aggies
filled the woods north of Bryan
to begin mowing down the trees
that will make up the bulk of the
Bonfire this year.
Chain saw crews and juniors
and seniors with axes began cut
ting the trees several days earlier
in order to assure that the fresh
men and sophomores would have
plenty of logs to tote out of the
forest. Mud left over from count
less rains the weeks before made
every obstacle a challenge. Drain
age ditches and small creeks be
came major rivers of mud and
mire.
Brute force made up the bulk
of the transporting the logs, but
some tractors were brought into
play to speed up the hauling.
Cuts and bruises, as well as
logs, began piling up soon after
work started.
Even though the sun did come
out part of the time to dry up
a few of the mudholes, there were
always some Aggies able to find
just one more wet and muddy
spot to cross.

KEEPING IT SHARP
After mowing down all those trees, fence posts, telephone
poles, and fellow Aggies, a man’s axe begins to get dull
and it’s time to stop for a moment and sharpen it up for
the next assault.
