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.

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.

Now that the statue of Sul Ross
has been protected against van

going to be done to rectify the
damage created in front of the
monument by the “security fire” ?

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.
