M. Help decorate our CHRISTMAS TREE! Hear the “Sound Of Love” A Trio From Houston ENJOY FUN, FOOD, & FRIENDS Editor: My wife and I are writing this letter to you in a feeble attempt to tell the world, via The Bat talion, of the pride we have for Texas A&M, the Cadet Corps and especially the members of Air Force Squadron 5, our son’s squadron while he was attending Texas A&M. Our son, Billie J. Pratt, Jr., was born in Bryan in 1953, the year I graduated from Texas A&M, and as you know, passed away Nov. 17, 1972, while attending the school we all so dearly love. My wife and I have just re turned from attending Silver Taps at College Station and, of course, we were unable to express to Billie’s classmates and outfit how proud we are of them and to personally thank his squadron for serving as an honor guard at Billie’s service in Burnet. Beverly and I were able to ob serve the Cadet Corps parade dur ing the Dallas Corps Trip and those gentlemen have convinced us that the future of our country will be in good hands. Billie J. Pratt ’52 Beverly J. Pratt ★ ★ ★ Editor: One of the outstanding tradi tions at this university may be observed at football games: the enjoyable ceremony that follows the scoring of the fightin’ Texas Aggie football team. We believe this tradition should be practiced at basketball games. The morale of the players and spectators would be boosted tre mendously. Attendance would improve at games and enthusi asm would reach an unprecident- ed height. With the full support and co operation of the entire student body we could make our way to the SWC championship. If each Aggie (and his date) would take the individual initiative to adapt this tradition and do his part, this goal could be reached, and another sport would become deeply rooted in the hearts of Aggieland. Personal involvement is neces sary for a successful season.

Assistum, opuruo The Church..For a Fuller File..For You.. The puppy had been gone for hours. A small boy stood, nose pressed against the screen, staring at the empty evening. Then softer than a breath of air, beyond the hedge came a whimper. The door slammed, footsteps raced, and the moment exploded in yelping, wiggling delight. Can you measure the joy of a lost puppy found? If happiness could be weighed or ruled, this surely would be an instant worth distilling. And how about that first glimpse of your newborn? the flash of adoration at the beauty of a Sunday’s anthem? that glowing second when the naugh tiest little boy in Sunday School takes your hand and says, “I love you”? High moments can’t be assessed by material standards. But each in spiring revelation of God’s love brings us closer to understanding Him and the Truth of His whole creation. That’s why it is important to go to church.
