College Station, Tex., Oct.
16.—Enrollment at the Texas
A. & M. College has been
made possible this year for 130
Texas farm boys who other-
wise would have been unable
to attend through application
of the “live-at-home” princi-
ple of the A. & 31. farm pro-
gram emphasized throughout
the state in recent years.
The plan employed provides
for community grouping of
boys unable to meet dormitory
expenses in houses off but in
the vicinity of the campus.
These boys bring food supplies,
furniture and other necessities
with them from home and each
group engages a supervisor or
supervisors, usually a man and
wife from the home communi-
ty of the particular group con-
cerned, who attend to the
house, prepare the meals and
look after the group’s welfare.
Much of the food brought
by the boys is grown on the
home farms and canned at
home under the supervision of
county and home demonstra-
tion agents. Groups from the
vicinities of Crockett, Lufkin,
and Groesbeck, enrolled at the
college this year under the
plan, have each'brought al-
most 1,700 cans of meats,
vegetables and fruits for use.
Each boy is credited with the
value of the food products he
brings and household expenses
are budgeted. Through this
community budgeting of ex-
penses, it. has been found that
some of the students will re-
quire less than $5 a month in
cash for-running expenses.
This plan, known as “coop-
erative housing project,” to-as-
sist boys desiring a college edu-
cation but without sufficient
money to pay expenses in-the
usual way, was introduced
here in a' small way in 1932 by
Prof. Daniel Russell, head of
the rural sociology depart-
ment. It proved so popular
with the boys concerned that
demand for enlargement of
the project developed and this
year, with the assistance of
county agents, home demon-
stration agents, vocational ag-
ricultural teachers and others,
the scope of the project has
been widened considerably.
Permission from the college
authorities to rent a house
The annual meeting of the
East Texas Fox Hunters’ As-
sociation will be held October
5 to 8, according to informa-
tion famished the Times by
W. A. Smith, local member.
This annua! event will be
held at the Acre’s Old Mill
place, nine miles west of Gar-
rison, in Nacogdoches county,
and on the second day of the
meet the annual bench show
will be features.
and live off the campus is, of
course, necessary for each
group. The students in such
groups are also subject t<r
college discipline the same as
student*) in the dormitories.
The various groups so housed
this year range in number
from 6 to 17 students each.
Boys enrolled in these com-
munity groups are taking vari-
ous cor'-ses in the college, agri-
culture, engineering, veterina-
ry medicine, vocational teach-
ing and liberal arts. Since
jobs were difficult to find for
them, the cooperative housing
project plan was hit upon to
solve their problem.
This cooperative project is
only a part of a much, larger
program at the college to help
worthy boys get an education.
A new student labor commit-
tee has been appointed by
President Walton, this com-
mittee including S. G. Bailey,
executive secretary of the
college, who has charge of
student labor paid out of state
funds; E. L-. Williams, profes-
sor of industrial education,
who has charge of other jobs
for students on the campus,
and Prof. Russell, who has
charge of student job off the
campus.
In all 700 or more students
at the college this year out of
an enrollment of .more than
2,100. representing around 35
per cent of the student body,
are working ’their way through
college either in whole or in
part. _
