for the MSC lost & found auction Friday.

Items for auction were books, calculators,
coats, umbrellas and watches.
Lost any underwear?
That plus any number of items
could have been found at last Fri
day’s MSC lost and found auction —
a hodgepodge sale of items ranging
from underwear, to raincoats,
watches and jewelry.
The crowd gathered not only to
consider possibly Christmas gifts,
but amusement.
Keyes Carson, a member of the
A&M class of 1940, served as au
ctioneer and begger, depending on
what was for sale.
Sometimes one of his helpers
would model the coats and nylon
slips to make them more attractive.
Ties, assorted earrings, and shirts
were put together to sell as groups
to bring better prices.
Items generally started around
$1, and worked up.
Damaged or brand-new, all went
up for sale.
New owners not satisfied with
their purchases after examination,
were given full refunds; then it went
right back up for sale.
Umbrellas were the big money
getters, despite the sunny day out
side the MSC’s main lounge.
But at the end, both owners and
sellers considered it a profitable
day.
