Fish Club committed
to intensifying spirit
By TANYA WILLIAMS
Reporter of THE BA TTA LION
"Hullabaloo, caneck, caneck . .
. goodbye to Texas University, so
long to the orange and the white. .
" Familiar? Well, contrary to
popular belief, that's not the first
verse of the Aggie War Hymn.
But, fear not, Casey Motl wants to
teach it to you.
Casey Motl, a senior
graduating in August of 1993, is
the organizer and president of
Aggie Fish Club, a freshman club
"committed to the intensification
of Aggie spirit and the
development of freshman
leaders."
Motl felt that non-reg students
had begun to water down Aggie
traditions and history, so ne
developed the club last April to
rejuvenate tradition, history and
Old Army spirit. Motl, who has
never been in the Corps, feels that
non-reg students need to be

verse of the war hymn, Motl says

Aggie Fish Club is the
only club for you."

"myths," such as the dunking of
senior rings. Motl feels that
dunking rings is an act of

symbol.

was not done in the past," Motl
said. "Dunking the Aggie ring is
