The Fightin’ Aggie Band has marched for 71 years before
Southwest football fans.
The large military organization will perform for the public at
Aggie football games this fall, entrancing thousands with its precision
maneuvers on the gridiron.
First formed by a Czechoslovakian cobbler and a dozen other
musicians in 1894, the band sounds the pulse of athletic contests,
reviews, parades and other campus functions.
Its stirring halftime shows are designed and installed in four hours
a week, before and after classes. Practice is extra-curricular and band
members receive no material compensation for membership.
The unique organization has no scholarships, music majors nor
auditions. The only prerequisite is previous playing and marching
experience.
Members come from most of the 50 states, several foreign
countries and major in subjects from aerospace engineering to zoology.
The 12 file wide and 22 rank deep unit covers 35 yards of gridiron and
requires three drum majors for coordinated control.

HOWDY FRESHMAN!
. . . and welcome to Texas A&M. We invite you to the store built to supply your student needs — LOUPOT’S.
In business for 30 years at the same North Gate location, Lou has built a reputation of service to Aggies lasting
through generations. He will be happy to help you in any way he can. While you’re in, be sure to pick up your
free copy of < ‘Campusology, ,, where you can find the school songs* football yeUs, and many important (and not so
important!) facts about A&M.
Thanks...
To the nice students who have traded with Loupot’s during the summer. We will be looking forward to seeing you
again this fall and supplying your additional needs. In 1969 an estimated 4,000-5,00 boys sold their books to me. I
bought these books knowing that they would come back to trade with me in the Fall. I now have a tremendous in
ventory of used freshmen books. I suggest that you check with students and former students for our book policy.
