This weekend, thousands of Aggies will invade Horned Frog territory. Since this will be a new experience for them, we'd like to pass along a few suggestions on etiquette: *■ 1. Before leaving for Fort Worth, wipe mud from windshield. 2. En route, always buy a full tank of gas. Stopping for a gallon at a time requires too many stops. 3. Any cardboard box can be made to look like a suitcase if shoe polish is applied smoothly. Boxes must have tops but no ropes. 4. Before entering Fort Worth city limits, change from overalls to Sunday clothes. Wear socks, but please, no white ones. 5. Limit occupancy of your pickup to a reasonable number of riders. 6. Those driving tractors to the game should leave the day before and remember to stay on the right hand side of the road. 7. Leave saltines, Vienna sausages and R.C. Colas in your pickup. Amon Carter Stadium has concession stands. 8. Leave Sears catalog and corn cobs at home. 9. If invited by a county agent or fertilizer manufacturer to have a drink in his motel room, do not spit tobacco juice on the carpet. Keep your shoes on at all times — holes in your socks , make a bad impression. 10. Never pick your nose in public.
