Two luncheons were heki one atthe begnunng of each senmskH,to compliment the new mothers. As an addition to the Homecoming celebration, the Club contributed two hundred red roses. To help the students with their recreation room, the mothers donated more than one hundred dollars. Further service was rendered through the continu- ation of the practice of furnishing worthy students with text books and school clothing, and the giving of Christmas dinners to a number of needy families.

Sparlcman EX - STUDEDTS HSSOCIHTIOI1 Southern Methodist University Ex-Students Associa- tion, reorganized and rejuvenated, held its largest and most successful Homecoming on October 30, 1937, when George Sexton, renowned cheer leader, numerous football heroes of yesteryear and exes from the old Medical school days down to the littlest of fish of the class of '41, met to honorably defeat Texas: to thrill to the boisterous strains oi Peruna and the beloved Var- sity, to eat and dance together. The spring Rodeo, an innovation of 1937, became an annual Occasion for assembly. The Mustang, official magazine of the association, now well into the second year and volume of publica- tion, is an achievement unique in S. M. U. history. Twice before, a magazine has been sponsored by the exes, but neither oi The Mustang's predecessors existed be- yond three or four numbers. The M ustang's two editors, Fredreka Wilbur, '34, past, and Mary Cornelia Chambers, '35, present, are mem- bers oi Alpha Delta Pi and former Semi-Weekly Campus reporters. Fredreka is the first girl to be elected to the editorship of both the paper and the magazine. Cornelia took over The Mustang in lanuary, 1937. The editor and other staff members, except the business manager, 'give their time and service without financial remuneration. Business Manager Lloyd Slaten has handled The Mustang for a year and has done a fine job of increas- ing circulation and advertising. Duvall Williams has added much to The Mustang by his contributions of cartoons and cover designs. Eunice Faison is the faithful Mr. and Mrs. columnist, and Mrs. Lauretta CRaymond RJ Lawther has designed several covers.
