THE TWO-TON bell, mounted in the rotunda of the Academic Building', was presented to A&M by Texas Governor Allan Shivers in an Independence Day ceremony in 1950. At the ceremony, “The Bat talion” reported that A&M Presi dent M. T. Harrington said, “. . . any location decided upon at this time is temporary. . . .” “We hope someday, perhaps, that a bell tower might be con structed on campus.” Two months later, the bell was moved to its present location and enlosed in a protective glass case. It took the place of a large tro phy case which was moved to the Memorial Student Center. THEN, THREE years ago, workmen removed the case com pletely. A&M President Earl Rudder said recently that there were once plans to build a memorial for the bell on some other part of the campus. “But the supporters of the plan gradually lost interest and so nothing came of it,” he said. Rudder added that any future plans concerning the bell would have to be submitted to the A&M Executive Committee for consid eration. THE BELL was originally one of a set of 53 replicas cast in France. They were used in a six- week publicity campaign promot ing U. S. Savings Bonds in 1950. After the nationwide tour, a bell was given to the governor of each state and to the District of Columbia. Gov. Shivers said he presented the Texas bell to A&M “in recog nition of the outstanding patri otic record of the Texas Aggies.” Owens To Star In Sigma Delta Chi Show March 18 Country music star Buck Owens will perform at Texas A&M March 18 in a benefit for journal ism scholarships. This was announced Monday by Dani Presswood, Sigma Delta Chi journalism so c i e t y president. Presswood stressed that the pro gram was selected so as not to conflict with Town Hall. “Our annual show is designed primarily for lovers of country music throughout the area,” Presswood said. “We will sell tickets in Madisonville, Hearne, Caldwell, B r e n ha m, Navasota, Bryan and other area communi ties.” “In the past we have found that most of the audience are non students, although naturally stu dents are welcome to attend ” Buck Owens is currently recog nized as the No. 1 country music star in the nation. Presswood said the chapter felt fortunate to get him. One of Owens’ more re- cents hits is “Got a Tiger by the Tail.” Other country music stars who will perform at the two-hour show, include Freddie Hart, who has a new single, “Togetherness,” which is rapidly climbing the na tional charts. The show will start at 8 p.m. in G. Rollie White Coliseum. * Proceeds from the show will be used mainly for journalism schol arships at Texas A&M. Previous shows have netted more than $4,- 000 for scholarships, enabling many high school and junior col lege graduates to enter A&M. A number of current journalism stu dents are on Sigma Delta Chi scholarships. BATTALION CLASSIFIED Political HELP WANTED Announcements for part-time job. weekends.
