We are very sorry that it was
necessary to leave out the most
of the rm'al correspondance last
week due to lack of space, but
we had several compliments on
the paper because of the large a-
the school's history.
All but a handfull of the year-
lings are unknown, but it is from
just such material that the state
and conference championship
teams of A. & M. have been built.
The policy of Aggie athletic of-
ficials is to give every candidate
all the opportunity he wants; and
it was that policy which produc-
ed such men as Ross Hall, Merle
Collins, Melvin Riggs, and others
among last year's graduating
lettermen.
A freshman schedule of seven
games with no pleyers allowed to
enter more han three games, will
give every Cowboy freshman a
chance to show his caliber under
fire.
Those from Perkins on the Ag-
gie freshmen squad are: Hurley
Blumer, g, 165 and Shelby
Wyatt, t, 200.

from the gently warm sun and faintly
stirring airnature's farewell to a

Number 991 pressed his cheekbones
against the bars of his open window.
