is from the deep south— 
Birmingham, Ala., and the band 
is made up of the same players 
in it when it was formed. Cost 
of the dance Friday will be $1.50 
per couple and $1.38 per stag.

He plays a blues type swing and 
the slower rhythms, Howard Mc- 
Elroy, Union dance manager, said. 
McElroy, local band entrepreneur, 
should be a competent judge.

This dance is open to all Uni-

dependents are urged to attend 
this dance.

Gabriel, alias Hawkins, is one

Soloist for the band 

is Ida 
James, the sepia queen o f blues 
whose “Knock Me a Kiss Baby," 
is very popular. Other recordings 
by Hawkina which have proven ex­
tremely popular are “ Raid the

To Amuse Army

The 

those dance 

time has come 

to polish

routines and 
to practice up on old piano selec­
tions that once were proudly pre­
sented before beaming parents.

When the Long Session opens 
Monday, the Austin D efense Re­
creational Council, under 
the 
sponsorship of 
the U.S.O., will 
register talented students willing 
to participate 
in variety shows. 
Mrs. Homer Ulrich is co-chairman 
of the Council.

Organized in July, the Council 
had planned t* present talent re­
views at tl»a local U.S.O. head­
quarters each week-end, but the 
shows were so well received that 
the troupes of entertainers were 
requested to make frequnt trips 
to surrounding camps.

Singers, dancers, y o d e l e r s , 
whistlers, actors and script writers 
are needed.

Auditions will be held every two 
weeks to obtain new talent, and 
entertainers’ names will be placed 
on ftf« “for call" as do national 

ooking agencies.

New Course in Fall 
Will Refresh Teachers

An expanded program of “re­
fresher" courses for Texas teach­
ers will be offered this fall at 
the University, Dr. B. F. Pit- 
tenger, dean of education, has an­
nounced.

All the courses will be given in 
the late afternoons, at night, or 
on Saturday, Dean Pittenger said, 
thus making the work available 
for teachers within traveling dis­
tance of Austin.

Although some work of this 
kind has bee* offered in previous 
years, 
the program has been 
stepped up to meet the current 
shortage of qualified public school 
teachers, Dean Pittenger 
ex­
plained.

Courses offered will 

include 
training in the use o f visual aids

 9U2 Frosh to Be Numerous Despite War—Mathew

PIm m 2-2473 — T H E D A I L Y T I X A N — Hm m 2-2473

THURSDAY, SEPTEMIER IT, 1942

War-Time University Students to Work

Although the number of freshmen registering Mon­
day will be under last year’s total, the over-all freshman 
class probably will be as large or larger than first-year 
claases of the past, in spite of Hitler, the war, and the 
draft, believes E. J. Mathews, registrar,

la spite of the fact that the A nay Enlisted Reserve, 
the Marine Corps, and other reserves are calling mem­
bers into active service as soon as they reach their twen­
tieth birthday, the registrar's office is preparing to take 
care of the usual number of freshmen at registration 
Tuesday.

One factor making for a large class, believes Mr. 
Mathews, is the realization by college students of the 
country’s need for educated men and women to lead 
both during the war and after the war is over.

Another factor is the policy by the federal govern­
ment of making loans to worthy students in preferred 
fields, which means that a man studying in a preferred 
field— engineering, for example— may borrow money

from the government and devote all his time to his work.
The registrar points out that od and co-ed will neces­
s a r i l y he more serious and industrious by pursuing col­
lege studies than they have in the past. The day of the 
“rah rah" is gone, at least for the duration— after Rush 
Week, that is.

T here is, however, one influence which may cut into 
the ranks of freshmen. Defense jobs opening all over the 
country offer attractive opportunities for both men and 
women, an d m any students and potential students have 
dropped ou t of school to go into that sort of work.

Mr. Mathews predicted that the proportion of girls 
to boys in school this year will be extremely large, due 
to the need for members of the male populace to fight 
for freedom. Furthermore, many girls are staying in

1942 Co-eds to Be 
Non-Workers, Dean 
Gebauer Predicts

Although enrollment of women 
student* in The University of Tex­
as is not expected to decrease ap­
preciably this fall, there will be 
some changes in the type of co-ed 
enrolled, Miss Dorothy Gebauer, 
dean of women, has predicted.

“Although we have no accurate 
figures on the number of Univer­
sity women accepting jobs in pref­
erence to returning to school,” she 
explained, “we know that many 
upperclass women are now being 
employed in industry.”

This is particularly true, 

the 
dean said, of students who have 
had to work their way through the 
University. Present employment 
demands, accompanied by higher 
wages, are certain to taka their 
toll of upperclass enrollment a t 
the University. Registration of 
freshman and sophomore women 
students, however, is expected to 
make up the deficiency.

“ Badly as women are needed in 
industry,” Miss Gebauer declared, 
“they need some training before 
they can expect to get a job. We 
are expecting high school grad­
uates to seek college training be­
fore employment.”

Wreck May Be
Lost Army B-24

ST. JOHNS, Ari*., Sept. 16 
(INS)—Soldiers and civilian vol­
unteers, led by mountaineers and 
Indians, made their way up the 
steep slopes of two-mile high Old 
Baldy Mountain today to deter­
mine whether the charred wreck­
age of an airplane sighted by Civil 
Air Patrol fliers near the sum­
mit is a missing B-24 Army bomb­
er.

The wreckage was located by 
Jesse Anderson and Bernsce Lar­
son. They said there was no sign 
of life on the mountain peak and 
that 
the plane apparently had 
caught fire after the crash.

A B-24 bombing plane was re­
ported missing Friday at Davis- 
Monthan Field a t Tuscon. Eight 
officers and men were aboard the 
craft, which was returning from 
Omaha on a navigation training 
flight.

The rise in the cost of living for 
students s t The University of Tex­
es this fall will be no greeter— 
possibly less — than th at which 
would affect them if they stayed 
a t home, University deans 
in 
charge o f student housing point 
out.

“ We are facing new problems 
in providing and regulating stu­
dent housing because of the emer­
gency,” Herschel R. Gipson, as­
sistant dean of men, said, “but 
they aren't all problems caused 
by price changes.”

Real charges are approximately 
tho Mass as for previous years, 
both Dean Gipson and Mbs Doro­
thy Gohonor, dean of women, re­
vealed. Thoro are slight iacreeses 
in food charges, however, bvt they 
have not yet equalled tho national 
Increase of IS per cont in the 
cost of living.

“Wo know that at least three 
m ajor difficulties are facing us 
this year,” Dean Gipson explained. 
“There will be a scarcity of con­
sumer goods—less meat and can­
ned goods, perhaps—there will be 
a price rise in accordance with the 
national market trend, and there 
will be restricted service, such as 
limited credit and poorer delivery 
service, to the managers of dormi­
tories and student houses.”

Both man’s and woman’s housas 
suffering lossas in stndsnt leader­
ship. Student honso-managors are 
usually upperclassman, and thasa 
are tho students boing called into 
government serries or into indus­
try. Loss of skilled buyer or house- 
manager may increase tiring nests 
|for students In a particular house, 
Dean Gipson said.
“Reservations 

f o r women’s 
houses are nearly equal those of 
last year,” Miss Gebauer announ­
ced. ' ’Our dormitories have a wait­
ing list, and inquiries concerning 
eo-operative houses are as numer­
ous as before. Judging by these in­
dications, there will not be a seri­
ous decrease in the number of 
women students in the University 
this year.”

Dean Gipson revealed that th# 
man’s dormitories, also, ore filled, 
hut that all other typos of housing 
are still plontlful---rooming and 
hoarding kansas, and co-operatives 
still have vacancies.

"Increases In room and board 
charges to students are largely ex­
plained by the house owner’s at­
tempt to protect herself against 
the possibility of fewer students 
and higher prices,” Dean Gipson 
said. “In many instances, the stu­
dent is protected against further 
Increases by a contract with the 
house owner.”

Nimitz Urges Use of V-Mail

Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, 
Commander-in-Chief of tho Paci­
fic Fleet, has issued an appeal to 
families of service personnel to 
use the new, fast V-Mail system 
for correspondence 
the 
Mainland 
to forces afloat and 
afield.

from 

Pacific Fleet V-Mail authorities 
pointed out that speed, privacy, 
and economy should make use of 
this mocrofilm service attractive 
to the armed forces.

Whereas regular airmail from 
the Hawaiian area 
to Pacific 
Coost points often takes many 
days oven going by convoy when 
molts arc unusually congested— 
V-Mail to those some cities over­
ages only four days. V-Mail for 
East Coost points toke* only six

days from tho time of posting In 
arrival at its addressed destina­
tion.

In the Fleet, mail clerks have 
been supplied with special V-Mail 
forms. Letters written on these 
blanks and posted for censorship 
they 
are not read again until 
reach Hie addresses.

Hawaiian area V-Mail is photo­
graphed on 16-mill:meter micro­
film spools in Honolulu. Those 
rolls, two of which contain as 
many letters as an ordinary mail- 
pouch, go to tho. Mainland by tho 
first ovoilnblo air transportation. 
They roto highest priority: they 
go immediately.

By fast mail train, completed 
V-Mail is then sped to recipients,

who get 4-by-5% 
inch enlarge­
ments of the tiny negatives in of 
ficial envelopes—without charge.
Mainlanders corresponding with 
men afloat or afield may obtain 
their V-Mail blanks from 
any 
postoffice. Full instructions ap­
pear on each form. Letters are 
sent to the nearest V-Mail eenter 
for forwarding by air to the sol­
dier, sailor or marine concerned. 
Again, days are saved; and valu­
able airplane space is conserved 
for vital war goods.

It is urged that service users 
tes­
of V-Mail request their corres­
t i s 
pondents to take advantage of $ i s 
f to 
fast system. V-Mail now goes 
pensonnel on duty in Austral!

and in intermediate island bases.

Care for Health.
Cox Urges

Health Department 
Fights Accidents

With the nation facing a loss 
of more than 6 million man days 
per month in defense industries 
alone from accidents and illnesses 
Dr. Geo. W. Cox, State Health 
Officer, is intensifying the Texas 
State Health Department’s effort 
to cut down the total days lost 
in this state.

“The number of man day* lost 
from accident* alone each month 
reaches an alarming total. But 
when wa consider that there are 
S times mere absentees from com­
municable end other diseases it 
becomes apparent,” Dr. Cox as­
serted, “why it is necessary to 
urge that naeh individual protact 
his own health to tho host of his 
ability.”

Communicable disease and avon 
mild epidemics can seriously han­
dicap th# nation’s war effort by 
slowing down tho production of 
the necessary ships, planes, guns, 
end tanks. Careful attention to 
personal cleanliness, proper nu­
trition, sufficient rest, fresh air 
and sunshine is the personal re­
sponsibility of every individual at 
this time.

“ It it our job,” Dr. Cox amid, 
“to fight sickness and accidents. 
Production can be boosted 
and 
lives can be saved by strict adher- 
ance to community and industrial 
hygiene standards and full coop­
eration in such community pro­
jects as mosquito control and ra t 
extermination for preventing the 
spread of malaria, dengue, and 
typhus fever. Loss of time ren­
ders aid to the enemy and this 
country must be able to depend 
on peak production from all of its 
industrial army.”

U. S. Marines Maintain Positions 
In Decisive Battle for Solomons

WASHINGTON, S e p t . 16— 
(IN S )— What may prove to bo tho 
decisive battle o f the present Sol­
omons campaign appears to be de­
veloping today with the Japanese 
striking out recklessly in an at­
tempt to recapture their former 
airport on Guadalcanal to prevent 
its use by American forces in the 
growing U. S. offensive in the 
Pacific*

While the Navy in 

ita latest 
communique asserted that U. 8. 
Marines apparently "are maintain­
ing their positions," the disclosure 
that heavy fighting has been in 
progress for days indicated that 
the enemy has succeeded in land­
ing comparatively large reinforce­
ments.

In view o f the fact that the 
original Japanese garrisons wara 
virtually wiped out by Marines 
who captured at least six islands 
in the Tulsgi area, the communi­
que sounded an ominous note with 
the revelation that enemy troops

actually had attempted 

capture the airfield.

"During the night of Sept. 13- 
14 our positions on Guadalcanal 
were shelled by enemy surface 
craft and our troops engaged in 
heavy fighting with enemy troops, 
who had made an unsuccessful 
attempt to capture the airfield," 
the communique stated-

This indicated that the fighting 
which has been in process since 
the night of Sept. 12-13 probably 
is the heaviest since Aug. 20, when 
Marines wiped out a Jap landing 
force of 700 which attem pted to 
the original 
assist remnants of 
enemy garrison.

The Battle of the Solomons add­
ed three names to the lustrous 
roster of United States Navy aces.

They are Machinist Donald E. 
Runyon, 29, Crawfovdsvttl, Ind.; 
Ensign Sarlton Starkos, Memphis, 
Tonn., nod Lieut. Hayden M. 
Jensen, St. Paul, Minn.

Starker has six Jap planes I# his 
credit. Jensen has shat dawn five.
Runyon, who has been in the 
Navy eight years and a flier since 
1937, shot down two Japanese 
dive bombers Aug. 7 over Guadal­
canal. He scored two more vic­
tories Aug. 8— shooting down a 
twin-engined Mitsubishi 97 torpe­
do bomber and a deadly Jap Zero.
Hooking up with Jap airmen 
in one of the most savage air bat­
tles o f the Pacific War, Runyon 
sent three dive bombers and one 
Zero crashing 
in 
flames. He also damaged another 
Zero,

ship. There were about fifty Jap 
diva bombers, protected by a dos- 
an Zares. The Japs wara flying In

IN AUSTRALIA, 
Sept. 16.— Allied bombers smashed 
at Japanese bases on a 1,500-mile 
fro n t from Tenim ber Island to Ra­
baul, snd scored direct hits on two 
enemy ships carrying supplies to 
Japanese bases threatening New 
Guinea, Gen. Douglas M acA rthur’* 
headquarters reported today.

It was the third straight day 
th a t Allied airc ra ft attacked en­
emy supply ships off the Tenim ­
ber Islands where one cargo ves­
sel of two bombed was left in 
flames by a direct hit.

The assault on Rabaul marked 
a resumption of the air offensive 
against this strong enemy base 
to the east of New Guinea.

As flying fortress and other 
heavy aircraft ranged out over 
the seas south and east of the vital 
island bastion, fighter planes and 
attack bombers hammered enemy 
positions on the south slopes of 
the Owen Stanley Range in New 
Guinea where the Japanese drive

on P o rt Moresby has been stalled 
for the past week.

Gen. M acA rthur^ headquarters 
disclosed today th a t the Allied air 
force in the Southwest Pacific has 
been under command of Maj. Gen. 
George Kenney since A ugust 4, 
ju st before the sta rt of the Amer­
ican invasion of the Solomon Is­
lands.

Lieut. Gen. George H. B rett, 
form er air commander who is now 
the U nited States, has been 
in 
tran sferred to other duties, 
the 
announcem ent stated.

Increased patrol activity was re­
ported along the jungle-clad moun­
tain trails leading from Efogi to 
Port Moresby, but the 
invaders 
were not able to advance towards 
the Allied base on the southern 
shore of the island.

Reports from the New Guinea 
fro n t said the tempo of the fight­
ing in the mountain jungles has 
been intensified, and credited the 
continuous Allied air assaults with 
stopping the foe on the present 
line, 
from P ort 
Moresby.

Kenney has had a busy

U.S. W ill Control 
Labor, McNutt Says

WASHINGTON, Sept. IS.— (INS)—War Manpower 
Director Paul V. McNutt today bluntly told Congree* 
that complete government control over this nation’s la­
bor supply “ii inevitable,” and disclosed that tbs com­
mission which he now beads is studying national service 
legislation for submission to President Roosevelt- 

McNutt is the firit high ranking government official 
to make such a proposal, although national control of 
all manpower has boon advocated and denounced on 
tho floor of Congress.

“We art moving rapidly,” McNutt told the Tolan Mi­
gration Labor Committee, “toward a situation where 
th* government must intervene in the labor market. 
It is not yet certain how soon the War Manpower Com­
mission will recommend national service legislation to 
the President or what form the legislation will take, but 
it is my considsred judgment that some type of a nation­
al service act is inevitable,”

Asked by the Committee if there were differences 
between various government executives over who would 
obtain the job of manpower “czar” when such an aet 
is passed, the cx-govemor of Indiana remarked that 
"this is war, and it is no tim* for personalities.”

American Legion Head 
Warns of Enemy Strength

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 16.— (INS)—"It will take every­
thing we have to win the w ar,” Lynn U. Stambaugh, na­
tional commander of the American Legion, warned the 
nation today upon his arrival in Kansas City for th* Le­
gion's twenty-fourth annual convention.

Stambaugh said the purpose of this convention, shifted 
to Kansas City from New Orleans because of the war, will 
be to arouse the nation "to the present and urgent neces­
sity of dropping everything else and making the hateful 
business of war our only occupation until victory is won, 

“The magnitude of this war, the strength and diabolical 
cunning of our onomies, their determination and their su­
perior skill at waging war add up to only one thing- It 
will take everything we have to win the war and our fail­
ure to give our all means losing it.”

Stambaugh mentioned the Legion's fight for universal 
service, adding that “it includes a complete ceiling on 
prices, profits, and sarvkas in whatever field or in what­
ever classification. Th# sooner such a coursa is adopted 
and th# sooner it is put in motion, tho less costly in mon 
and malarial will ha our victory in this war.”

The national president of the American Legion Auxil­
iary, Mrs. Mark W. Murrill, Scituate, Mass., lashed out at 
the Secretary of Labor on the matter of strikes. Mrs. Mur­
rill, said "Nothing should be permitted to halt work in w ar 
industries, even if it necessitates a change in the Presi­
dent’s Cabinet.”

Despite A. F. L. and C. I. O. promises of no strikes for 
the duration outlaw strikes are occurring daily. 'T h e se 
troubles,” Mrs. M urrill said, "should be traced to their 
source. They lead to Mrs. Frances Perkins, as Secretary 
of Labor.

'Co-Ops Only Way' 
Says A. & M. Expert

COLLEGE STATION, Sept 16 
(A, A M. C .)— Living costa def­
initely hove gone up, hut don’t 
blame the farmer for the prices 
you arc forced to pey,

This advice cornel from C. E. 
Bowles, extension specialist in or­
ganisation and cooperative mar­
keting of the Texas A. A M. Col­
lege.

Before Peerl Harbor a year’s 
supply of foods for the average 
working man’s family cost $462, 
Mr. Bowles says in quoting fig­
ures from a check made by the 
Bureau of Agricultural Econom­
ics of the U. 8. Department c f 
Agriculture.

•

Three months later staple foods 
— beans, pork, bread, milk, po­
tatoes—had risen to $484, an ad­
vance of $22.

Of his $22 increase farmers got 
$6 in higher return for their pro­
duce. Every time the farmer re­
ceived an additional dollar, 
an 
extra $2.86 went into the pockets 
of those who buy, process, trans­
port and sell these foods to the 
ultimate consumer, Mr. Bowles 
declared.

•
There were 68 items of food in­
cluded in this study. The consum­
e r’s dollar is split 61 cents to the 
farmer and 49 cents to those who 
handle it before it gets on the 
dinner table, and for the 
first 
time in 21 years the farmer re­
ceived as much as half of the food 
dollar. The grower receives 36 
for 
cents of the dollar 
sweet potatoes, 27 cents o f the 
dollar spent for oranges and 20 
cents of the bread dollar.

spent 

Retail prices of cotton and wool 
articles net the farmer only a 
dime on the dollar. Cooperative 
action is the only way for farm­
ers to get a larger share of the 
consumer’s dollar, Mr. 
points out. Texas has 845 farmer 
cooperatives embracing 
180,000 
families, Bowles says.

Coast Guard Aided 
In Solomons

O fficers and men of the United 
States Coast Guard were included 
in the American forces which a t­
tacked and seized Japanese strong­

Guard H eadquarters

The Coast Guardsmen saw ac­

members o f gun crews on these 
transports when our invasion fleet 
moved on ita objectives early on 
the m orning of August 7.

Observers present in this en­
gagem ent were impressed by the 
expert m anner in which the Coast

manned th eir guns. The accuracy 
of their fire was described as ex­

the print shop. There are few errors, though the printers 
try to slip in dirty jokes once in a while.

“Oddly enough, some of the fellow s kick about the 
dirty jokes. They don't like to send the papers home

Six Armed Forces to Enroll Students in Reserves

A l l branches of the armed for­
ces— Army Air Force, Navy, Naval 
Aviation, Marine Corps, Army, 
and Coast Guard— are offering 
opportunities to capable students 
who will attend The University 
o f Texas this fall and who can 
meet 
requirements 
to enlist in the appropriate reserve 
corps, continue in college, and ob­

the physical 

tain a college degree, Registrar 
E. J. Mathews, has announced.

T h is a p p lie s to a ll a a d e r g r a d u - 
• te e — fre sh m e n , so p h o m o res, j u n ­
io rs, a n d se n io rs . T h o p rim a ry

d e n ts in th e v a rio u s R e se rv e C o rp s 
is to fu rn is h a so u rc e o f f u tu r e o f ­
f ic e r m a te ria l.

A Board of Officers represent­
ing the six services listed above 
will come to the University in Oc­
tober, Mr. Mathews said. They will 
explain in detail the advantages 
and opportunities of their respec­
tive services, and the students will 
be given an opportunity to discuss 
their problems with these officers.
A few weeks later, a joint re­

cruiting party representing the six 
services will come to the campus to 
enlist those men interested.

Upon enlistment in the reserve 
corps, the student is assigned to 
inactive duty and is permitted to 
continue his college work. In gen­
eral, he is permitted a maximum of 
four calendar years from the time 
he entered college as a freshman

to complete the requirements for 
his degree. Generally speaking, 
first y e a r students will be defer­
red four years; second year stu­
dents, three years; third year stu­
dents, two years; and fourth year 
students, one year.

The plan provides that upon 
graduation from the University, 
the student will be sent to an Of­

ficer Candidate School, and upon 
completing the requirements of 
this Officer Candidate School, will 
be commissioned in the appropri­
ate corps.

The Enlisted Reserve Corps of 
the Army is the only exception to 
this plan. In this Corps, upon 
graduation from the University, 
the student enters the Army as a 
thirteen
private 

receives 

and 

weeks of basic training. Upon 
the completion of this basic train­
ing, he may be given an opportun­
ity to go to an Officer Candidate
School.

It is permissible for individuals 
to enlist now in any of the reserve 
corps excepts the Enlisted Reserve 
Corps of the Army, he explained. 
That Corps requires the recom­
mendation of the Registrar of the

Head of Naval R.O.T.C.

Sure, Navy Wears Khaki; 
Read and Recognize

“ Well, if he’s a Naval officer, 
then why is he wearing khaki?”
About one-half of the general 
population are still asking 
that 
question, although the Navy has 
been wearing khaki since before 
Pearl Harbor.

And the explanation is simple 
— khaki is simply the “ work” uni­
form of the Navy. Because of its 
in hot 
durability, 
weather, and its capacity for cut­
ting down laundry bills, it was the 
most logical material for such uni­
forms.

th a t b e c a u se A rm y m en all w e a r 
k h a k i n e c k tie s.

Other methods of distinguishing 
service men are by the rank insig­
nia. The Naval Officer always 
wears his on his collar, while the 
Army wears them on the should­
ers. The caps too are different. 
Navy officers always wear anchors 
on the cap— but nary an anchor 
will you find on the Army officer.

Another 

to distinguish 

frequently 
question 
raised by Mr. and Mrs. Public is 
how 
the various 
branches of the service. This has 
been the subject of much intense 
publicity on the part of both the 
Army and the Navy, for in war­
time, one of the first duties of a 
good patriot is to know the serv­
ice branches and to be able to dis­
tinguish them at a glance.

In the first place, the ranks of 
Army and Marine officers are the 
same. They are denoted by bars, 
leaves, and stars. The ranks of 
indicated by 
Naval officers are 
stripes, half-stripes 
and broad 
stripes. The star on a Naval offi­
cer’s uniform indicates he is of the 
line (a deck officer). A gold bar 
on the shoulder of an Army offi­
cer indicates the rank of Second 
Lieutenant which corresponds to 
the rank of Ensign in the Navy as 
designated by one stripe on the of­
ficer’s sleeve. A silver bar on an 
Army officer indicates the rank

of First Lieutenant. A half-inch 
and a quarter-inch stripe on a 
Naval officer designates the cor­
responding rank of Lieutenant 
(Junior Grade). Two bars for the 
Army spell Captain, but in the 
Navy two stripes indicate Lieu­
tenant (Senior Grade) which is 
the corresponding rank. Next in 
seniority is the Army’s Major who 
wears a golf leaf; the Navy’s cor­
responding 
rank of Lieutenant- 
Commander wears two full stripes 
with a half-stripe or narrow one 
between. A Lieutenant Colonel 
wearing a silver leaf corresponds 
to 
the Navy’s Commander who 
wears three full stripes. A Colonel 
wears a silver spread eagle and 
corresponds in rank and pay to 
the Navy’s Captain, who wears 
four full stripes. A Brigadier Gen­
eral wears one star. This rank 
formerly corresponded to the Com­
modore in the Navy, a rank which 
has been discontinued.

The Army’s M ajor-G eneral, 
Lieutenant General, and Full Gen­
eral wear two, three, and four 
stars respectively. To match them, 
the Navy has its Admirals, known 
as “ Flag Officers.” They are: 
Rear Admiral, Vice Admiral, and 
Admiral, and they all wear a two- 
two, and 
inch stripe plus one, 
[three stripes respectively.

Men 17 to 36 Wanted 
N o w by Leathernecks

Enlistments are now being tak­
en in the United States Marino 
Corps from men between the ages 
of 17 and 36, inclusive, for com­
bat duty with the fighting leath­
ernecks. Until recently the maxi­
mum age limit for enlistment in 
the Marine Corps was 34.

In addition 

the excellent 
to 
training offered by the Marino 
Corps, there are many schools for 
ambitious young men to attend.
The Corps not only maintains 
its own schools, but its members 
have access to other schools where 
selected men can prepare them­
selves for the future.

15 Navy V-1's 
Can Take C.P.T.

Fifteen University of Texas sin* 
dents who are already enrolled in 
the Navy’s V -l reserve program 
which will allow them to complete 
at least two years of their college 
work before being called to active 
service with the Navy may this 
in the Civilian Pilot 
fall enroll 
Training program here.

Under terms o f the program, 
only those Navy reserve men who 
plan to enter V-5 training for the 
Navy air corps on the completion 
of their college work will be ad­
to C.P.T. work, V. L. 
mitted 
Doughtie, co-ordinator of the pro­
gram at the University, announ­
ced.

“Only those students who agree 
to change to V-5 will be admitted 
as part-time students,” Doughtie 
declared. “They will be required 
to take 72 hours of ground school 
training and 40 hours of flight 
training during the 16 weeks in 
which the course operates.”

The students’ part of the C.P.T. 
program at the University will 
open Oct. I.

A fnll-time program for 65 men 
assigned to the University C.P.T. 
unit by the Army and Navy start- 
eded September 15, but it will re­
quire seven-day-a-week attention 
but eight weeks. It does not tie in 
with the student program, Dough- 
on a full-time scale and will last 
tie pointed out.

Refresher courses 

in physics 
will be offered this fall by the 
University of Texas through its 
Engineering, Science, and Man­
agement War Training program, 
Read Cranberry, coordinator, has 
announced.

Officer Squads Cut 
To Combat Groups

Officer schools available for Volunteer Officer Can­
didates are now limited to certain combatant branches 
of the service, according to a directive received this 
week at State Selective Service Headquarters from the 
Eighth Service Command.

Texas’ local boards have been instructed to notify all 
qualified V. 0 . C. applicants, who have not yet been 
ordered to report for induction, that effective imme­
diately they will be eligible to compete for selection at 
one of the following schools only: (I ) anti-aircraft ar­
tillery, (2) armored force, (3) cavalry, (4) coast ar­
tillery, (5) engineers, (6) field artillery, (7) infantry, 
(8) ordnance, (9) signal, ( I O ) tank destroyer, or ( l l ) 
chemical warfare.

V. 0 . C. registrants who do not wish to attend any of 
these schools will be permitted to withdraw their appli­
cations, State Headquarters officials said, and in the 
future all applicants for V. O. C. w ill be advised th at 
their choice will be 
limited to the aforementioned 
schools.

Selective Service W ill Help 
In Copper Production

The Texas Selective Service System will give full cooperation to the 
recent action of the War Manpower Commission to increase the ur 
gently needed war production of copper, critical non-ferrous metals 
and lumber within this State, General J. Watt Page, State Director of 
Selective Service, announced this week. He said:

“ The War Manpower Commis-*

sion has called for uninterrupted 
production and maintenance oper­
in all non-ferrous metal 
ations 
mining, milling, smelting, and re ­
finings, and all logging and lum­

bering activities carried on within 
the states of Arizona, Colorado,

and promoted as rapidly as your

this 
time you get to know real Navy 
life, Navy traditions, Navy Regu­
lations. Every recruit has an equal 
chance for assignment to one of 
the Navy trade schools at the end 
of his training period. More than 
25,000 a month are selected. This 
does not mean that the men who 
do not qualify for trade schools 
have lost their chance for train­
ing; they are sent to sea for prac­
tical experience, and as soon as 
they show they are qualified, they 
are returned as soon as possible 
to shore duty to attend advanced 
trade schools where they can be­
come expert

in

First Pep Rally Friday Night

F riday night rally season opens at 7 s3 0 o ’clock in 
front o f the south entrance to Main Building. This is 
th e freshm an orientation rally, the Colonel says, but 
a ll students are invited to participate and g et in the 
spirit for the opening gam e Saturday.

For the opening gam e Saturday, Bandmaster Hurt 
says the band will be in the stands during the game, but 
th ey will not stage a drill during the halves. He said, 
however, that the band would co-operate with the N a v a l 
R. O. T. C. in the flag ceremony ten minutes before game 
time.

Naval Station Band May Play
An added attraction for the season’s opener m ay be 
the app earan ce of the N aval Air Station’s band, w hich 
has been asked to drill b etw een halves. It is not certain 
th at th ey w ill be here, but it is reported that 250 cadets 
are com ing and that the band m ay be included in that 
group.

O f Home Defense Guard

A n s w e r i n g all inquiries as to the possibility of the 
Longh or n Band bei ng ind ucted as a unit into the De­
fense G uar d, Colonel H u r t said W e d n e s d a y plans are 
being m a d e for all m e m b e r s of th e b an d to voluntarily 
enlist in t h e Texas H o me Defense G u a rd . The Colonel 
says he hopes all m e m b e r s will enlist on th e ir own ac ­
cord an d if the desire w a s un animous to enlist, the b an d 
would be inducted as a unit.

J. W a t t Page, A d j u t a n t G en er al of the Home Defense 
local Selective Service 
G u a r d and c h a i r m a n of th e 
Board, said the band u n d e r this a r r a n g e m e n t would be 
the official State H e a d q u a r t e r s Band. In this capacity, 
th e b an d would still have only its normal duties to do, 
but the Colonel plans to teach the m e m b e r s some f u n d a ­
m e n ta l military science. T h e purpo se of this tr a i n in g 
is to help boys un de r d r a f t age to p r e p a r e for tra in in g 
t h e y will get in th e arm y.

Besides these plans on th e military side, Colonel H u r t 
ann o un ce d t h a t several concerts were p l a n ne d f or this 
year. He plans to use a small ba nd of ab o u t forty-five 
pieces for these concerts in o rd er t h a t th e concerts m a y 
be play ed in th e available space in Driskill Hall. He 
also s ai d t h a t the b and may be used as a morale buil der 
in some pre- gam e p a r a d e s each S a tu r d a y morning ab out 
l l o'clock. Ile plans to have the b an d in two sections, 
with one gro up p a r a d i n g d ow nto w n an d an o t h e r group

Officers of th e b a n d who will be on h and from now 
on to s ta r t the drilling for the opening g am e with K a n ­
sas S ta te here S e p te m b e r 26 are Curtis P o p h a m , presi­
d e n t ; Scott Amsler, senior counselor; and G r a h a m Rob­

By PATSY MILLER

Even the “Information pleas­
ers*' would have a difficult time 
guessing at the definition o f a 
HEMIDEMISEMIQU AVER. The 
ambivolent Oscar Levant asked 
quizzer Fadiman whether a similar 
term was “animal, vegetable, min­
eral or if by coincidence, music." 
Deems Taylor, in his erudite way, 
would say that a hemi-etc., “was 
a quarter note on the musical scale 
of a flautist” (pronounced f l a u t ­
ist, according 
the eminent 
to 
Deems.

B ut 

think 

this gentlem an 
would agree th a t the general pub­
lic doesn’t give a hemi-demi w hat 
a hemidemi is. From the juke box 
fan s to the hundreds of Carnegie 
Halls throughout the country the 
rhythm has to be “ in the groove” 
to be “ on the beam.” Paul Robe­
son said once th a t the reason his 
people reach ed the “ unprecedent- 
' ed heights of spiritualism ” Tos­
canini spoke of, was because they 
le t the emotional beauty of music 
creep into th eir souls instead of 
try in g 
the why, 
rationalize 
w herefore, and the when o f it. 
Accomplished musicians find this 
la tte r phase of the a r t beautiful, 
b u t even before the time of the 
m arionette-like m inuet, 
the mu­
sic lovers have appreciated music 
fo r 
it be 
classical or modern. A ppreciating 
music is an a r t in itself if one is 
to 
the 
popularity and the influence of 
college music appreciation courses.

O f Swing and Sway

L ately, there has been a g reat 
deal of comment on the lack of 
beautiful lyrics and music in the 
popular songs. The songs of recent 
m onths have not been up to the 
calibur of previous months, it is 
tru e. W here are the “ H eart and 
Soul,” “ Blue Orchids,” Deep P u r­
ple,” and “ The Last Time I Saw 
P aris” of yesteryear? The long, 
drawn out ASCAP battle may 
have had something to do with 
the shortage, since many of Am er­
ica’s top composers were unavail­
able a t th a t time. Now the curren t 
Petrillo controversy may have 
even more far-reaching effect un­
less some mediation can be reach­
If there is enough protest 
ed. 
from 
this m ight be 
the public, 
hastened. Speak up now Suzy-Q 
and Johnny Jitter-b u g if you want 
y o u r jive!

Even if this stymie is overcome, 
A m eriea-at-w ar can do without 
th e p latter rhythm to keep up the 
soldiers’ morale, if “ p latter” jive 
is to be p u t on a rationing basis 
o r eu t o ff altogether.

Meanwhile the juke boxes con­
tin u e to revive the ever-popular 
semi-classics — “ Begin 
the Be­
guine,” “ A P retty Girl is Like a 
Melody,” “ S tar Dust,” “ Dancing 
in th e Dark,” and Gershwin ad 
infinitum . “ My Devotion” “ Sweet 
Eloise” and “ Stage Door C anteen” 
are the cu rren t new favorites a t 
the Avalon, Tower and Lake

About a Naw W ar Song.

So fa r there Is no new war 
song. George M. Cohan, who wrote 
W orld W ar I “ Over T here” 
is 
reportedly working on one. And 
“ Men a t W ork” signs hang over 
Cole P orter, o ther famed hit w rit­
ers and thousands of young un­
knowns, who know what a hemi- 
demisemisphere is and those who 
don’t. Music critics predict th at 
the song of this w ar will come 
from an unknown. A “ Keep the 
Home F ires B urning,” “ I t ’s a

O f Classical Disk-a and Data

Guy Lombardo recently, as a 
guest artist in W inchell’s column, 
gave some idea of the heated con­
troversy going on among 
the 
“ Almighty C ritics” over the re­
cent Shastakovitch Seventh Sym­
phony. There is a g re at deal of 
condemnation and praise over it. 
Perhaps when it is disked or broad­
cast, (if the p latter shortage isn’t 
acute a t th a t time and Petrillo 
reaches justice) we will be able 
to hear the much discussed sym­
phony and join in the discussion 
of w hether it is a symphony or a 
“ syn-phony.”

To date one of 

the biggest 
classical sellers on record 
is as 
always, Ravel’s “ Bolero,” especi­
ally the Boston Pop Symphony’s 
arrangem ent.

Gershwin's “ Rhapsody in Blue” 
is running a close second in the 
field of light classics with Alec 
Templeton and 
the Andre Kos- 
telanetz team .

In the field of genuine classical 
music, Tschaikovsky’s “ Seherez- 
hade,” is, to quote a young jitte r­
bug, “Really aometluaV’

BO NITA G RAN VILLE shares 
the billing with Jackie Cooper 
in 
t h e Paramount^ current 
movie, ’ Syncopation," a scen­
ario based on the rise of modern 
swing from the "trouble" music 
of the Southlands. Gene Krupa 
and other name bands make 
this one especially for hepcats.

Big Name Bands

Native jungle rhythm brought

the swing of today played by Gene

out to develop into “ Syncopation” 
starrin g Adolphe M enjou, Jackie 
Cooper, and Bonita Granville, now 
playing a t the Param ount.
The most outstanding 

thing 
about the show is its unusual be­
ginning, 
in which native drums 
and dances are portrayed. This 
same haunting rhythm is carried 
through the whole show from na­
tive in the South, to the North, 
and ends with all 
the famous 
dance bands of today pouring it 
out fo r the modern blues.

The story develops around the 
the 
Negro “ trouble” music of 
South. Bonita Granville, as New 
Orleans girl, tau g h t the music by 
her old Negro mammy, is brought 
to Chicago by her fath er, Adolphe

Bonita Granville and Jackie 
Cooper do their usual routine of

for the lovers of jazz, jitter, and

Tho development of aa Ameri­

be left up to a few men aud wom­
en with exceptional talent, but 
should be a pert of tha everyday

citizen, believes Dr. Archie N. 
Jones, professor o f music at the 
University.
Writing 

in a recent issue of 
“The Texas Outlook,” official pub­
lication of the Texas State Teach­
ers Association, Dr. Jones declares 
that one of the big jobs of the 
“folks at home” in this war is the 
preservation of the culture and 
civilization for which we are fight­
ing— that this should be consider­
ed a task of patriotism.

“Real patriotism is the sam of 
the emotions of pride, loyalty, and 
leva,” Dr. Jones writes, “and as 
our music espressos those emo­
tions, it is patriotic.”

Folk music is one of the best 
expressions of American patrio­
tism, Dr. Jones asserts, and Amer­
ica has plenty o f folk music—

dance music, hillbilly songs, and

Dr. Jones recommends a nation

declares, “ help bring music to the

By BILL TEASDALE

Sport* Editor

ju s t before the Southwest 
Conference teams started 
their workouts last Septem­
ber 5 the Texas Christian 
University news bureau sent 
out a questionnaire to sports 
writers in cities throughout 
the territory, and the results 
don’t put Texas where Uni­
versity students would like 
to see them.

But maybe w e shouldn’t 
worry too much since 
the 
concensus in the same poll 
last year put the A ggies in 
fourth spot, and they wound 
up on top. The Steers were 
picked for first last season 
only to finish in a tie with 
Texas Christian for second.
Anyway, this year the A g­
gies are picked to repeat 
with Texas a close second. 
T.C.U. and Rice were nam­
ed neck and neck for third 
with Southern Methodist, 
Arkansas, and Baylor bring­
ing up the rear.

The prediction of a two 
way battle seemed to be in 
nearly all of 
the writers’ 
minds since not a one figur­
ed the A ggies or Longhorns 
below third. Texas fans can 
comfort them selves with the 
thought that most writers 
merely picked the champion 
to maintain his laurels rath­
er than take a chance on the 
Steers to come back strong 
after losing most of the first 
string eleven that met disas­
ter two week-ends running 
last fall.

Poor Baylor and Arkansas 
didn’t seem to have any sup­
port, but either one is liable 
to surprise on a given Sat­
urday and knock the con­
ference chase into a cocked 
hat as it has been in many 
past seasons.

•

/^vne of the Longhorn stars 
of a couple of years 
back has been in town this 
w eek on a short 
furlough 
from combat duty with the 
Naval Air Corps. Nelson 
Puett, who scored the touch­
down in 1938 enabling the 
Steers to beat the A ggies 7-6 
and maintain the Memorial 
Stadium tradition, is visiting 
friends in Austin. He joined 
the Navy about a year and a 
h alf ago and received his en­
several 
commission 
sign’s 
months later. Since 
that 
time he has seen war duty in 
several parts of the world 
and has 750 hours of battle 
flying.

Puett was one of the fight- 
ingest players on the squad 
for three years and would 
have probably received even

for his 
more recognition 
play if he had not been in­
jured. If he’s as tough in the 
air as he was on the gridiron 
— watch out, A dolf!

As this is written 

the 
Brooklyn Dodgers have just 
about tossed away the Na­
tional L e a g u e pennant. 
When the last issue of the 
Summer Texan came out on 
August 23, 
the Flatbush 
boys had about eight games 
to spare in their league race, 
favoring 
the schedule w as 
them for the rest of the ses­
sion, and all looked ideal for 
a gas-saving, tire-saving sub­
way World Series with the 
Yankees.

But some of the old time 
gas seemed to have seeped 
in the one-time Gashousers 
at St. Louis, and a few of the 
younger players decided 
they should get a bigger 
slice of that series melon 
since they may be playing 
ball for Uncle Sam by next 
October.

So the pitchers 

started 
pitching a little straighter, 
the batters hitting a 
little 
harder. The result has been 
victories 
about thirty two 
out of the last thirty-five ball 
games, and now the Cards 
rest on top with little likeli­
hood that they will fail to 
hold what they have fought 
so hard to get.

T l/fh e n the Corpus game 
w was scheduled for the 
Steers, there was probably 
the game 
some idea that 
woulld be a bit of a push­
over. That idea has begun to 
lose some of its prevalence 
now that it is realized that 
the Navy fliers have some of 
the best football talent in 
the country on the team.

the 
Biblemen pull through that

Baylor Again Plans
To Be Upset King

Meyer Praises Frogs 
After Week's Practice

FORT WORTH, Sept. 16. — 
Coach Dutch Meyer of Texas 
Christian is about ready to rate 
his ’42 team as a contender for 
this season’s conference flag.
“ I never had a bunch 

come 
along faster in the first week of 
practice,” Dutch reports.

WACO, Sept. 16.—When Mor­
ley Jennings resigned s s Baylor’s 
head football coach, many Bruin 
followers heaved mournful sighs 
o f regret, for they feared that 
with the passing of the Jennings 
wizardy would also go the Baptist 
college’s tid e of “the upsettingest 
team in the nation.”

But jovial Frank Kimbrough re­
cruited from Hardin-Simmons for 
the 1941 grid campaign, more than 
lived up to the rabbit-out-of-the- 
hat precedent established by Jen­
nings when his lowly Bears de­
railed the Texas Longhorns via a 
7-7 tie.

From all indications, the “Gen­
ial Dutchman” is going to have 
opportunity to continue that rec­
ord this year, for the games when 
the Baylor eleven will take the 
field as public choices are going 
to be very few and far between— 
leaving the Bears most any Satur­
day during the grid 
season to 
score an upset.

When the fall training period 
got underway in Waco September 
5, Kimbrough had a squad 
of 
forty-three men— over half of 
which were untried sophomores. 
Bolstering the inexperienced first- 
year men will be fourteen letter­
men, back from last year’s injury- 
jinxed club which finished next 
to the bottom in the conference 
standings, four squadmen and two 
junior college transfers.

•

Chief among Kimbrough’s im­
mediate worries is whether or not 
he is going to have the services of 
two of his key lettermen— Milton 
Crain, powerhouse fullback, and 
Travis Nelson, shifty wingback 
and ace signal-caller.

This valuable pair of seniors are 
the only remaining members on 
the squad subject to draft before 
football season gets underway, al­
though W. B. Godbold, senior let­
terman at the tackle slot, might 
be called into the air corps before 
the fall is over. Neither Crain nor 
Nelson was able to get into a re­
serve because of physical defects 
— Crain having a bad ear, and Nel­
son faulty vision in one eye. Al­
ready lost to the war effort are 
Ends Jack Russell and Ed Hick­
man; Guards Jim Bean and Bubba 
Hill; Tackle Rex Gandy; and Back 
Paul Cook.

With Crain at fullback and Nel­
son having four other lettermen— 
Bill Coleman, Bo Robinson, Homer 
Pittman and Kit Kittrell— to lead 
the fight for the remaining two 
starting positions. Also due to get 
in some playing time is Bert Ed- 
mison, squadman who ranks with 
the top punters of the conference.
•

Best bet among the newcomers 
seems to be Charlie Flowers, dimi­
nutive scat-back transfer from Kil­
gore Junior College, who along 
with Bill Coleman might prove the 
answer to Kimbrough’s prayer for 
a passer to spark Baylor’s over­
head game. Also likely to be in 
the battle for the first four posi­
tions are sophomores Bill Dickson, 
Lloyd Price, Guy Nunnally and 
Bob Burke, who appear best of the 
bumper crop of backs up from the 
Cub ranks.

Leading the way in the Bruin 
forward wall will be Buddy Gate­
wood, two-year letterman who will 
be making a strong bid for all­
conference honors at center. Com­
ing in for relief work will be Olan 
Runnels, junior letterman; Gard­
ner McCormick, transfer from Kil 
gore; and two very promising so 
phomore pivot-men, James Lee 
and Homer Garrett. With all this 
strength in the middle of the line, 
Kimbrough 
that he 
would shift a couple of these boys 
— probably Runnels and G arrett— 
to either a guard or tackle posi 
tion in an attem pt to help plug up 
gaping holes left by graduation 
and loss of men to the armed serv­
ices.

indicated 

•

Biggest headaches are the guard 
posts. With no returning letter­
men it promises to be a wide-open 
battle for the starting berths with 
squadmen Alton Dewlan and Le- 
Roy Robertson rating a slight edge 
over sophomore hopefuls Bobby 
Henderson, James Griffin, Red 
Cheek, Bill Craven and Horace 
Blancett.

W. B. Godbold and Bubo Bar-

men at the tackle holes, but they

hands to keep Albin Murski, 190- 
pound squadman who turned 
in 
some fine play in late games last 
season, from breaking 
the 
starting lineup. Also due to see 
service are squadman Puny Steph­
ens, and Sophomores Roy Leal and 
David Robertson,

dates up from the freshman ranks.
End play should be on a high 
standard with Wenzell Gandy, 
Jack J e ffre y and Snake Bailey, 
lettermen, dividing starting

Johnson and John Huggins, both

T. C. U. Expects 
Alford and Fast,
Big Line to Star

FORT WORTH, Sept 16— Only 
one thing is certain about the 1942 
Horned Frog football team in the 
mind of Coach Leo R. “Dutch” 
Meyer:— its uncertainty.

Coach Meyer isn’t too discour­
aged over the outlook as he gets 
underway for his ninth season 
with the Frogs. He just feels that 
he can’t be too sure about what 
the current season holds for him 
in the way of personnel.

“We’ll have at all times the 
best eleven men available on the 
field,” is the way he sums up the 
T.C.U. grid outlook in war time, 
•

Actually, the little mentor who 
surprised the Southwest last sea­
son by taking a gridiron machine 
relegated to fifth place in the pre­
season sports writers’ consensus 
and playing it in the Orange Bowl 
on New Year’s Day is fairly op­
timistic about the coming season.
“ We’ll have a pretty fair ball 
club,” Dutch says. And he makes 
the statement with a gleam in his 
eye th a t calls to mind the stun­
ning 14-to-7 defeat his ’41 aggre­
gation scored over the until-then 
national champion Texas Long­
horns last November.

When pressed for particulars, 
Coach Meyer waxes enthusiastic 
about the prospects for a big fast 
forward wall. There’s Capt. Bruce 
Alford, for instance— ‘as good an 
end as we ever had a t T.C.U.,” 
Meyer comments. And for grid 
fans who remember Rags Mat­
thews, Don Looney, Walter Roach, 
Willie Walls and others, that is 
enough said.

•
Then there's Derrell Palmer at
left tackle. Meyer 
that 
Palmer can play in the all-Ameri­
can bracket if he ju st wants to. 
In any event, the Dutchman rates 
him— and Southwest opponents 
concur— as a top-notch lineman.

holds 

Then there are Paul Admire 
and Clyde Flowers at the other 
end and tackle, Mike Harter and 
Clifton Patton at guards, 
and 
James Woodfin at center. One 
gathers that Dutch believes these 
boys will do a good job.

John Bond 

Big questionmark and key to 
a t 
the backfield is 
righ half. If the McLean 
boy’s 
shoulder injury is o. k., the Dutch­
man believes he has a truly great 
right half.

But it is the thought of Emery 
Nix a t quarter th a t really brings 
fo r 
the gleam to Meyer’s eyes, 
Nix will do most of the passing, 
and every football fan in the n a ­
tion knows what a top hand 
a t 
tossing means to football as prac­
ticed a t Texas Christian.

The pre-season picture adds up 
to this: Coach Meyer is hep on 
! his line, thinks his backfield will 
be adequate. He is content with 
“ I think
the simple statem ent: 
we’ll have a pretty fair team.”

“ And I ’m picking the Texas Ag­

gies to win the flag,” he adds.

Oklahoma Will Expand Football 
To Condition More Men For War

O. U. Coach 
Does Not Favor 
Hide-Out Play

NORMAN, Okla., Sept. 16.— 
Dewey “Snorter” Luster, Okla­
homa football cos&ch, favors elim i­
nating all hide-out plays.

One of the new rules for 1942 
forbids a football team ’s hiding a 
man out for a long forward pass 
a fter a 
substitution has been 
made. The old lay-out play is per­
mitted however if staged while a 
substitution is not being made.

But Luster w ishes the rules 
committee had stricken out the 
play altogether.

SNO RTER L U ST E R

“ The visiting team 

is always 
at a disadvantage on this situ­
ation,” the Sooner coach holds. 
“ The sideline 
looks different on 
every football field. Some of the 
home team ’s chainmen often wear 
that 
jackets or sweaters 
letter 
closely resemble those of the home 
team player hiding out, thus con­
fusing 
Sometimes 
these chainmen even conceal the 
hiding player.

the visitors. 

it 

“ I don’t think 

is right for 
a football team ever to be beaten 
by a hide-out play,” Luster re­
cu res.

The Sooner coach points out 
that there was no major surgery 
on football rules this year, only 
minor changes.

For example, when both teams 
jump offsides this fall, the team 
that jumped first will be penalized. 
Luster likes this rule although he 
says it will put more burden on 
the officials.

the fo e 

Like most football coaches, Lus­
ter rates truculence high among 
the traits of a great forward. One 
o f ‘ Oklahoma’s best was Gilford 
“Cactus Face” Duggan, 225-pound 
tackle of 1937-1939 who had the 
disposition o f a Mexican bull with 
several sabers sticking in him. The 
Sooner coaches think he was a 
much better tackle because of it.

Great team s and great lines us­
ually are synonymous. Oklahoma’s 
times, 
lines of modern 
greatest 
bristling defensive units, were 
built by Jap Haskell in 1937, 1938, 
and 1939, when the Sooners had 
their greatest 
teams of modern 
times. Enemy offenses curled back 
those years after colliding with 
some o f the m ightiest ends who 
ever wore the red Sooner trap­
pings, Pete Smith, Waddy Young, 
Frank Ivy, John Shirk and Alton 
Coppage. Oklahoma lost only four 
of twenty-nine games those three 
seasons.

Luster believes the Texas line of

center, cannot have his fe e t o f f­
sides. 
This rule was obviously 
made to kill the new center pass

ingenously 
by Coach Ossie Solem of Syra­
cuse of having 
the offensive 
center face his owrn backs as he 
passed the ball from between his 
legs.

Bad Traveling Practices 
Bother Football Coaches

NORMAN, Okla., Sept., 16.— Team transportation is going to be 
more d ifficu lt than ever this fall but Orville Tuttle, Oklahoma’s ro­
tund football line coach, thinks it was already bad enough.

Card-playing and over-eating, two favorite pastimes traveling ath­
letes indulge in, are the m ost harmful things football players do on 
trips, Tuttle opines.

Coach Dewey “ Sno rter” Luster,

university men playing com peti­
instead of

the usual hand-picked group of 
forty-five or fifty specialists. His 
idea is to inculcate a combative 
spirit into as well as physically 
toughen additional fighting men

Luster decided upon 

the ex­

football a t Norman 
last winter when he heard Com­
mander Tom Hamilton, boss of the 
Navy’s Physical Fitness program ,

Association meeting a t D etroit 
is the closest thing 
th a t football 
to war and the re fo re would be em­
phasized for com bat training a t all 
the N a t i o n ’ s big Pre-Flight

“ In my opinion, football is the 
most perfect means of giving a 
cadet those qualities of team work 
and aggression so necessary 
to 
modern war, and a t the same time 
making a real man of him p h y s i c ­
ally,” Commander Hamilton told 
the coaches.

From th a t speech grew the Ok­

too 
little, o r n ot quite skillful 
enough or too busy studying and 
working to come out for varsity 
football. T here are hundreds of

ON THE DRAG OPPOSITE THE MAIN WALK

NORMAN, Okla., Sept. 16.— In 
6pite of vexing problems at tackle 
a n d center, C o a c h D e w e y 
"Snorter” Luster is industriously 
giving primary training to four 
first-team ers from last year, fif­
teen substitutes and twenty sopho- 
mores. The Sooner varsity squad 
o f thirty-nine is the smallest to 
trod Owen Field for many years.

From this group Luster is try­
ing to ready two complete teams. 
W hether they can be substituted 
as units depends upon how rap­
idly the second eleven develops. 
Last year the Sooners had three 
different elevens which they used 
as separate units. This season 
they may have only a f irst team 
which 
complement 
with substitutes here and there.

the only 
ten ter on the reservation, Luster 
has been desperately 
to 
make a pivot man out of 208-

promising sophomore from Atoka, 
are also aspiring to the position 
played so aggressively 
last year 
by Roger Eason and Plato Andros, 
&oth in the service.

The, Sooner coach is high on his 
sophomore backs. Dave Wallace, 
Oklahoma City sophomore wing­
back; Greathouse, the 168-pound 
Amarillo blocking back; Boone 
Baker, 163-pound Amarillo q u a r­
terback and Don Fauhle, Shawnee 
tailback, have been gettin g lots of 
play and may displace more expe­
rienced players.

B ut with the exception of the 
two end positions, the total Sooner 
line material apparently falls be­
low’ the backfield standard, parti­
cularly 
in experience which all 
coaches value so highly.

Dub Lamb and Jim Tyree, last 
y e a r ’s veteran wings, are back. 
So is Homer Simmons, 6*foot 5- 
inch righ tackle who sensationally

the first team before the Kansas 
State battle last fall. Clare Mor-

last year, re- I 
tu rn s and the coaches are using 
George Gibbons, 200-pound 1941 
sub, with him on the first team. 
Marsee is passing the ball back.

But the second team line drops 
down in ability. 
In Dub Wooten 
and Archie Bradley, 175-pound 
sophomores, it has a pair of fiery I 
but green ends, while Senior Mitch 
Shadid and C. F. Bryce, rough

Replacements ma y be dug up 
for all jobs save a t tackle, which

Ther e are 
four teen men to f ight f o r the two

Joeris and Don Luet hy ever have 
played any college ball. 
Joeris 
played about six or eight minutes 
in 1940 a f t e r being held out in 
1939 and in 1941 he didn’t even 
come out. Luethy played twenty- 
five seconds in the opening game 
last y e ar and w en t out with a 
broken ankle which did not let him 
get back into action until he got 
in about two minutes in the Cotton 
Bowl game. Those are the expe­

start, we nt into the service.

will be a st art er. 
Ji m Montgom­
ery was held ou t f or development 
last season and may help solve the 
problem b ut he is f a r off from 
the form of past Aggie tackles. 
From there out it is untested soph 
material with Hank Foldberg, 
1941 f reshman end, the best bet 
of the lot to ge t in much playing 
time. Wayne Cure, a squadman 
guard, also is an ot he r possibility 
f or tackle if the guar d gaps can 
be filled.

Figuring Maples still as a guard, 
Norton has thr ee 
l ett er men and 
some squadmen on hand b ut few 
of the squadmen, save Cure, have 
any experience. Ray Mulhollan 
last season 
start ed some games 
to do so 
and stands a chance 
the ot her
this year. On 
again 

side Maples looks the best but will 
be pushed by Felix Bucek, who 
gained much experience last sea­
son after he intercepted that $50,- 
000 touchdown against Arkansas. 
That score won 
the game and 
paved the way for the A ggies to 
win the conference title and the 
second consecutive 
invitation to 
the Cotton Bowl. Ed Ogdee, fresh­
man of three years ago but now 
out for varsity ball for the first 
time, has a good chance to break 
in but beyond that the other seven 
boys will have to fight 
it out, 
with Cure favored over all others. 
If he plays back to his junior col­
lege perform ance he could win a 
starting berth.

•
End vacancy will be solved by 
moving 
“Jiterbug” Henderson 
over to le ft end spot vacated by 
Sterling. He played some there 
last year so will not be entirely 
lost. “ Boots” Simmons will take 
the right end spot to give the 
Aggies the cream of the Southwest 
Conference wingmen. Both are 
outstanding pass 
catchers and 
r a n k e d h i g h nationally as 
well as in the conference. Both 
got many m entions last year for 
All-America. Truman Cox and 
Marion 
(P ete) Slaughter will be 
the reserves, with seven others 
trying for some playing time. Cox 
and Slaughter got in some time 
last year and now are vastly im­
proved players.

OI CABBAGES

By MARMO PHIPPS

Rush Weeki there is nothing like it. I am e rushee aid 
I can write, even though I can’t talk. T is much fun* de* 
spite heavy winter sweaters, miles of walking, standing 
in line, and not being able to speak to people. That last 
is what gets one in trouble. Lots of men who don’t knew 
about “silence” having descended on all Rushees cannet 
understand why the gals don’t fall on their necks in howls 
of joy at reunion.

Open Houses, pre-rush, Rush, convocation and all that 
sort of stuff. Silence, eating meals out, all make registra­
tion worries disappear in a puff of smoke. The mad rush 
has just started. Whoops I Here we go, girls.

The freshmen don’t look like they are, this year. The 
other morning, enroute to an open house, I heard soma 
boys talking about some girls passing in front, “If you 
want to see what freshmen look like, there go some.” The 
women in quesion were alumns from a sorority house who 
had slipped out for coffee.

However, here is one mark of a freshman: She Ii tar* 
ribly polite. Ndt a bit impudent, and the only cure for that 
is a term at the Forty Acres Finishing School. Not that 
they need to be bold and unpleasant, but these freshmen 
are so respectful it makes us upperclassmen feel decrepit 
and it just ain’t healthy.

Dr. Rainey welcomed the rushees Tuesday morning at 
a general convocation. During his address, he outlined the 
objectives a girl should have in mind for her college car* 
eer. Among them were “self-discipline, self-discovery, and 
self-development.” He told how a girl could make her 
four years at the University successful. He also led the 
group in singing America.

Silence is over Friday morning and the freshman dance 
is Friday night. Then Monday and Tuesday, all the mob 
is back for registration and classes start Wednesday* Ho 
hum, good old routine, it takes Rush to break he mono­
tony and to start things off with a bang. On our part, It 
is a silent bang until Friday morning, then just listen to 
us chatter!

A .D. Pi's Rush in New House

Rush week activities are in full 
swing a t the stately new French- 
colonial Alpha Delta Pi house, 
Twenty-sixth and University Ave­
nue, with parties, coffees, teas, 
and the general hurry and excite­
m ent of Rush Week.

Completed 

this summer, 
late 
the house opened its portals to 
th irty sorority members fo r the 
first tim e last week. House oc­
cupants had previously chosen 
roommates and suitem ates, and 
have now taken over th e eleven 
rooms, two baths, and two long 
sleeping porches upstairs.

Mrs. A. P. Brogan was chair­

man o f the building committee 
and wayside by Mrs. Pierce 
Stevenson, Mrs. C. F. Arrowood, 
Mrs Smith McCorkle, and Mrs. 
Paul Pressler.

In early New Orleans architec­
tu re, the L-shaped house has iron 
grillwork columns, a walled-in 
garden, and numerous m irrors.

A circular staircase, 

topped 
with a picture window leads up 
to the bedrooms, each of which 
has fo u r closets. An evening-dress 
closet and storing space fo r lug- 
gagee has been built into the up­
stairs hall.

The whole first floor may be

in 

Catching up on her hobbies 
which she has neglected during 
her years of indoor work is what 
Miss Burch is looking forward to. 
Gardening, music, reading, paint­
ing, and woodwork are among the 
activities th at will make up her 
new life of “ doing what I want 
to when I want to.” She will live 
in Wylie with her brother and 
sister.

Miss Burch enjoys woodwork 
because “ w’ood has personality—

ju st as people do.**

Some grains of wood are stable 
and substantial, while others, such 
aa so ft woods, are easily influenc­
ed and can be scarred and marred 
very easily, she commented.

Monotony has never crep t into 
h er work, Miss Burch said, be­
cause contact with people and 
th eir d ifferen t personalities has 
kept it interesting.

from 

Miss Burch received h er bach­
elor of a rts degree 
the 
in 1922. W’hen she 
U niversity 
began work, there were less than 
three thousands students in school. 
W atching the University grow, she 
has seen many changes in campus

life.

Among the students th a t she 
saw en ter the University as fresh­
men are J . A. Burdine, now vice­
president of the University, and 
Dr. C. P. Boner, professor of 
physics.

H er own personal index to what 
is happening in the world comes 
from the many requests fo r tra n ­
scripts, Miss Burch rem arked.

R egistrar E. J . Mathews, who 
has worked with Miss Burch fo r 
twenty-one years, expressed his 
reg ret a t h er retirem ent.

“ There has never been a more 
faithful or well liked w orker in

ll Alecs Get Wartime Degrees 
Intended for February

First of their kind, eleven University of Texas engineer 
ing students this wreek had their names added to the summer 
graduating class—they completed work on their respective 
degrees at the University’s first Intersession.

The war-created Intersession held its last classes Satur­
day, but engineering grades wrere not reported to Dean W. 
R. Woolrich’s office until Tuesday morning.

If it hadn’t been for the three-weeks* Intersession, these 
graduates would have had to remain in school until February 
to complete the single remaining course required for their 
degree. Four hundred and seventeen other students were 
also enrolled in in Intersession, each taking a three-hour war- 
emergency course.

The Intersession graduates include: Willis Augustus Cude, 
Avery; Lauro Gutierrez, Hebbronville; Arthur Louis Smalley 
Jr., Houston; Robert Van Osdell West, Tulsa, Okla.; Gradon 
Fuller W illard, Corsicana; and Alexander Zuniga, Laredo, 
all receiving the degree of bachelor of science in chemical 
engineering. Graduates in civil engineering were Raymond 
Albert Fraim, San Juan;James Blackstone Newman, Austin; 
and Jesse William Weise, Giddings. Rudolph Guezel, Harlin­
gen, and Robert Hitchcock Sharpless, Port Arthur, are mech­
anical engineering graduates.

Something New Being Added

Randolph Field 
Uses Women

Special to The Daily Texan

RANDOLPH F ield, Texas, Sept. 
1 6 — One of the most im p o rtan t 
tasjjs a t Randolph Field has been 
turned over exclusively to women. 
This is the exacting work of in­
specting, repairing, and packing 
parachutes. It formerly w as done 
by enlisted men, now relieved fo r 
duty in combat areas.

Most of the women are middle- 
aged, chosen for their ability to 
apply painstaking care 
to each 
minor operation. Pictures on the 
wall o f the parachute room help 
to keep theem ever aware of the 
importance of their job. They are 
the 
photographs of 
thirty-nine 
the Air” men 
“ West Point of 
whose lives have been saved by 
parachutes in eemergency jumps.

150,000 Women Soldiers, 
Mrs. Hobby Predicts

Col. Oveta Culp Hobby, nation­
al director of the Women’s Aux­
iliary Army Corps, early in Sep­
tember predicted 
the possibility 
of 150,000 American women sol­
diers in World War II.

Addressing the forty-third en­
the Veterans of 
campment of 
Foreign Wars, Mrs. Hobby pre­
dicted that more than 10,000 o f ­
ficers and auxiliaries will be en­
rolled in the W.A.A.C. by the end 
of 1942.

Women Must Help 
Aviation During W ar

Women must come to the rescue of aviation during the 
war years, air experts recently told University of Texas 
officials interested in aviation development. About a doz­
en top-ranking aviation authorities from industry and the 
armed forces were in attendance at a conference called 
by the University to discuss its present and future con­
tributions to aviation.

Executives of three large concerns— Braniff and Pan- 
American Airlines and Lockheed Aircraft Corporation— 
agreed that the women they have already employed are 
doing a fine job, and that more and yet more women will 
be needed as the armed services continue to claim the 
able-bodied men of war age.

T. E. B raniff, president of Braniff Airlines at Dallas, 
said women as pilots would not be acceptable to the in­
dustry, but they would be “very acceptable" for ground 
work. He added that Braniff Airlines have had "satis­
factory experience is use of women in traffic offices."

"Women have demonstrated that they learn skills in 
repair shops just as quickly as men," R. D. Sundell, W est- 
division engineer for American Airlines at Browns-
era
ville, declared, while Oscar Schuster, educational super­
visor, Lockheed Aircraft Corporation at Dallas, said "wo­
men are exceptionally capable in drafting."

Institute tackle, is headed for All­
conference and All-American re­

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 17.—
The extensive program for ob­
taining enlisted personnel for the 
Women’s Reserve of the U. S. Na­
vy began this week as headquart­
ers of Naval Officer Procurement 
in New Orleans and branch offices 
in the Eighth Naval District pre- 1 
pared to accept applications for 
Class V-10, the District Public Re­
lations Office announced.

This program is designed to pro­
cure the enlisted personnel for the 
“ 'WAVES” to take over work be­
ing done in naval shore establish­
ments, thereby releasing men for 
sea duty.

At present the procurement o f­
fices are seeking yeomen, store 
keepers, and radio operators, but 
all women with any specialized 
civilian training, particularly tech­
nical training, are urged to make 
application. It is pointed out that 
work in numerous fields is con­
sidered acceptable for the three 
groups for which enlistments are 
now being sought. For radio oper­
ators past experience in radio re­
pair wark, licensed amateur broad­
casting, typing, simplex and multi­
plex transmitting machine operat­
ing will be helpful in qualifying. 
For storekeeper work as account­
ant or bookkeeper, warehouse, 
freight or stock clerk is of the type 
needed, and for yeomen previous 
experience as secretary, 
typist, 
Stenographer, and duplicating ma­
the 
chine operator are among 
fields that qualify women.

in 
The office of procurement 
the Eighth Naval district plans to 
enlist HO women by October <5 
and then about IOO each month. 
Applicants are directed to 
first 
submit their qualifications in writ­
ing to the Office of Naval Officer 
Procurement in New Orleans or 
one of the branches in Birming­
ham, Nashville, Houston, Dallas, or 
Oklahoma City. If after submitting 
a written application a personal 
interview is desired by the Navy 
officials, the applicant will be so 
advised.

Requirements for enlisted per­
sonnel are that the women be not 
less than 20 and under 36, have 
no children under 18 years of 
age, be a high school or college 
graduate and be able to submit 
evidence of occupation after at­
tending school, and pass the physi­
cal examination.

Accepted applicants will be en­
listed as Apprentice Seamen and 
sent to a university for training 
instruction. Advancement to j 
and 
higher non-commissioned ratings I 
will depend on the demonstrated ; 
ability of recruits to fulfill the re­
quirements for higher rank in ap- I 
propriate classifications. No appli- j 
cant enlisted is assured of any rat­
ing above Apprentice Seaman and 
advancement is on merit.
