West Texas Aggies Elect New Officers
Assembling for the first time of the semester, on June 20, the Aggies of West Texas met and organized the West Texas Club of A. & M. An immediate election of officers was held, and the following were named officers of the club: Jay Poynor of Mason, president; Russell Benson of San Angelo, vice-president; Jimmy Henderson of Coleman, secretary; Pale Lane of San Angelo, treasurer; Harold Broom of San Angelo, tail- twister; and Tucker Pemberton of Stephenville and El Paso, reporter.
The purpose of the club is to bring all the West Texas Aggies into closer contact with one another; and it is Poynor’s belief that such can be achieved, since the club has a large membership.
A club party was planned at the July 11 meeting of the club. Committees for the arrangements were appointed, and the date was set for July 21.
An invitation is extended to all West Texas Aggies to join the club in an endeavor to make West Texas better known on the A. & M. campus.

Man, Your MannersBy I. Sherwood
m.Knowing how to make introduc
tions is absolutely necessary if you would save yourself any embarrassment.
The most formal introduction is“May I present?” When these words are used you are actually asking the honored person if you may introduce another to him or her. Therefore, since a man is presented to a lady, you say, “Miss Jones, may I present Mr. Smith”? “May I introduce?” is a little less stiff than “May I present” and equally as proper.
A younger person is presented to an older one of the same sex by saying, “Mrs. Beach may I present Miss Young?” or “Mr. Old may I introduce Mr. Young?”
The most popular form for introductions is to use the words, “this is,” saying “Miss Hart, this
is Mr. Jones”. Of course, young folks are perfectly proper, when in informal groups all the same age, they say, “Mary Jones, this is James Lee.”
The proper response to any form of introduction is “How do you do?” You may add the name if you wish saying “How do you do. Miss Jones.”
The only exceptions to presenting the man to the lady are the President of the United States and high church officials.

On Saturday morning they completed their visiting and inspection by visits with President Gibb Gilchrist and with Vice President and Dean of the College F. C. Bolton.
