Page 88 lots of fun keeping a clean and well dressed unit. One of the highlights of the year was the junior ROTC edition of the Military Ball. It was held in the Aggie's old North Building. We had decorated the room in Purple & White (class colors). It was a formal affair and everything was in order from the punch bowl on up. By this time the school year about over and graduation was coming soon. Ma & Willis were planning to attend the graduation but a last minute snow storm put a stop to that. they couldn't get there. The morning of graduation was blustery and cold. I was going to ride home with "Shorty" Erwin who lived across the river and we were all packed and ready. He had a Model T roadster with side curtains so the trip wasn't too cold. We weren't used to car heaters at that time. We got our "sheepskins" (they were sheepskin), said a few good byes and started west. |
