doubts — they weren’t sure they
were going to like him as well as
they’d liked his predecessor.
“But it didn’t take very long for us
to know that he was well aware of
where he was going and how to get
there,” she said.
She added that Hutchinson has
; devoted a lifetime to “helping Tex
ans help themselves to a greater and
richer life.”
Board member S.B. Whittenburg
presented Hutchinson with his ap
preciation certificate. Hutchinson
had accumulated 31 years of service
for the Extension Service, and
served as director during the last 18
years. He joined the Extension Serv

“Quality First”
regretted leaving the day-to-day ac
tivities of the Extension Service, but
said that he has enjoyed working
with a land-grant institution that is
able “to take pure knowledge and
make it applicable to everyday life. ”
Regent Joe H. Reynolds, an attor
ney who had worked with J. A. Amis '•
while they were both in Austin, said
that their friendship began 30 years
ago-
“To the extent that I’m a lawyer,
J.A. Amis made me one,” Reynolds
said. He added that Amis was a
“tiger in the courtroom,” and al
though he had engaged in a few es
capades, he has always been “ a
Christian gentleman, a great lawyer
and a great Aggie.”
Board member Ross C. Watkins
gave Amis his certificate. Amis, a
member of A&M’s Class of ’33, re
ceived his law degree from Cumber
land University Law School. Hej
served as county attorney in Rains (
County and as Assistant Attorney
General ofTexas. Amis has been sys
tems attorney since 1956.
Amis said that he considered it an
honor to serve as the first system
attorney, in a position that had been
created shortly before he accepted
it.
“My time here has been a real joy
as well as an experience,” Amis said.
Master of Ceremonies Cooper
added that Amis s alma mater,
Cumberland, had the distinction of
holding an all-time U.S. record in
football — for a loss.
“His alma mater was defeated in a
game with Georgia Tech by a score of
225 to nothing, and Cumberland’s
best offensive play of the day was a
two yard loss,” Cooper said.
there, Twin City Missions takes the
paper, glass and aluminum and has it
recycled.
Though this program is able to
function, it has not been doing so.
Huchton explained that although
the project is a good one, it requires
a great amount of manpower. Stu
dent Government simply lacks the
volunteers it needs. Also, the stu
dent body is not interested in collect
ing for the drive. Huchton said it
would be impossible to have a suc
cessful drive, even with enough
working volunteers, if the students
refuse to participate.
The following is a poem written by Vice President for Business
Affairs Tom B. Cherry and read to the audience during his
speech at his retirement dinner.
For man’s worth is not measured in terms of wealth
Or glory attained from life’s battles,
He must work and live for those who follow,
For they alone will know his value.
He’s not esteemed for material things.
For banners unfurled in his name.
He must work and live for those who follow,
For they alone immortalize his fame.
His contentment is not found in solitude
Or in attitudes he may embrace.
He must work and live for those who follow,
For they alone will sanctify his grace.
His character is not built from words he may utter
Or from feats that pass with time.
He must work and live for those who follow.
For they alone call him sublime.
So let us dedicate our deeds and thoughts.
And seek our inspirations from above.
For it’s divine to work and live for those who follow.
For they alone bring lasting love.
