A&M’s women’s rifle team will be traveling to Manhattan, Kansas
to participate in the Kansas State Turkey Shoot. This is the largest
jntPT-r'nllppinm rifle match in the nation. The team is composed of
WiSHSHh Nancy Jordan, Annetee Jensen and Glynis Cantrell.
They won the chance to attend the Kansas match by some top shooting
in Houston at the Cougar Rifle Invitational. The Aggies scored 4,218 of
a possible 4,800 at the University of Houston meet. The quartet beat
men’s teams from University of Tekas at Arlington, Trinity and Rice.
Wickham scored 1,080 of a possible 1,200 to be the high point scorer
on the team Announcements from the “Y” association
include several Christmas topics. Carols of Christmas song book will be
distributed by the “Y”. These may be picked up in the Y.M.C.A.
Building in Room 102. Dec. 4-15 the “Y” will be wrapping presents for
the Aggies. This service is free to members and for non-members a
charge of $ .25. Colleen Bourland, of the services committee suggests
that students bring packages by earlier to avoid the rush. Organizations
that wish to adopt a needy family for Christmas can receive
information in Room 102 of the Y. This is a service of the “Y”
association so that area families can have a more meaningful and fuller
Christmas Alpha Lambda, national honor society, will have
their Christmas get-together Wednesday, Dec. 6 at 6:30 p.m. The
meeting will be held at the Barcelona Apartments Club Room. Members
are asked to bring a small gift for a needy child valued under a dollar
for either a girl or boy aged 3-9 years. These gifts will be wrapped at the
party. Alpha Lambda has a new slate of officers. They are as
follows: Melissa Martin, president; Patti Gaulding, vice-president;
Robyn Evans, secretary; Kayron Dube, treasurer; and Susan Anderson,
historian and reporter
Only a few days ago short
skirts with a flair and low cut
tops were commonly admired by
the male majority of A&M.
As the cold breath of winter
sweeps the campus, however,
women reluctantly sacrifice, par
tially at least, their femininity for
a bit more warmth. Heavy wool
en slacks replace sheer tan hose.
High-collared, long-sleeved blous
es replace short, low-cut dresses
and even mittens and tobaggan
caps cover neatly manicured
hands and hair. Heavy coats and
scarves cover a once nicely ac
cented shape.
Men are the ones to suffer in
the cold weather despite their
temperate advantage over woman.
They do not get the privilege of
admiring the beauty of the weak
er sex.
Men rarely consider how women
feel as they wait for the shorts
and halters to come back. How
do women feel all bundled up and
gawky ?
Here they are, the epitome of
beauty and all that is good,
wrapped up, buttoned, snapped,
and tugged on just to get half
way near being comfortable.
Fewer women go braless in the
winter so they can have a little
more warmth, and for many, that
is no good at all. Those comfort
able loose-fitting clothes have to
be put away and bulky, itchy,
binding garb worn in their stead.
Women dislike winter as much as
men when it comes to clothes.
However, there is hope. There
are certain advantages attainable
in the winter that are not in the
summer. For example, as one
male student put it, “It’s more
fun to cuddle in the winter be
cause you don’t get sweaty.”
Winter clothes for women are
for the most part softer to touch
than summer clothes due to the
large amount of mohair, velour,
velvet and wool w o r n by girls
during the cold months. The ra
tio of pants to dresses worn in
the winter is much higher than
in the summer, therefore, giving
greater opportunities to touch
softer material.

Floriculture 203, Flowers Ap
plied to Daily Living, will be
taught for a second time this
spring.
The course, which meets Tues
day and Thursday at 12:30-1:45
p.m., was created over the sum
mer to help meet the increased
enrollment of coeds. It is open
to all students as a three hour
elective. Mr. R. H. Rucker, land
scape architect and floriculture
professor, is the instructor.
This course teaches the prin
ciples of design as applied to
home decor and arrangements.
Much emphasis is placed on the
development of individuality and
stimulating the student’s creativ
ity and imagination.
Marcia Durso, junior floricul
ture major says of the course,
“This is a practical course for
any student because it teaches
you not only principles, but Mr.
Rucker covers the practical
aspect such as cost and how to
get the most for your money and
your talents.”
Numerous types of flowers and
foliage are covered during the
course, with Rucker making ar
rangements during class.
