For the more than 1,500 Aggie wives on and around the A&M campus, there often comes a problem that usually squelches any plans for a night out.
“What to do with the baby?” is the problem.
But Mrs. Judy Morrison has come up with a unique and effective answer to the baby sitting problem. It’s a “baby sitting coop.”
The co-op, she explained, operates on a point system. Each member starts with 20 points for one child and five points for each additional child.
Points may be exchanged for babysitting services at the rate of two points per hour for one child, and one extra point for each additional child. Each meal the child must be fed is worth one point; and one point is assessed for weekend and holiday sittings. If the sitter must furnish her own transportation, one more point is charged.
Any mother can regain her sup-

Aggie Hour’ To Be Aired Over KORA
The radio and television class of the Department of Journalism will take over KORA tonight for the first in a series of weekly radio shows called the “Aggie Hour.”
For the rest of this semester the show will be broadcast Thursday nights from 10 to 11. It will be a variety news and music show which will be completely written, produced and broadcast by three- man teams from the journalism class. Four teams will be made up from the class.
Journalism Department Head Delbert McGuire said, “I think the show will be an educational opportunity for the students which they could not get in the department itself.”
He said it was a chance for experience in the field which a student would not otherwise get.
Bob Wade, of the KORA staff, said he hoped the show could be continued in the fall, perhaps more regularly than once a week, if the show proved a success.

The actual operation of the coop is simple.
“When a member needs to find a baby sitter,” Mrs. Morrison said, “she calls the current secretary for the names and phone numbers of members who are most in debt to the co-op.”
“She then calls down that list until she finds someone who can
