The following twenty-four pages show another phase of life at Rice. The school has a wealth of extra-curriculur activities to provide a mental and physical tran- quilizer for the growing students' active minds. Further, learning to sing, to speak, to dance, to play an instrument, etc., are all necessary talents that produce a well- rounded student. Rice is not a finishing school for future playboys, but in today's complex civilization, a boy must be pre- pared to do many things. His future changes with the news of the day. Scho- lastic endeavor provides the framework, extra-curricular pursuits bridge the gap between learning and application of this acquired knowledge. Over four hundred students participate in one or more activities during study period or after school. They form the needed pause that refreshes in a stu- dent's busy day.
