L KINGSLAND ' ice-President: DENOAILLES McCARTY Secretary and Treasurer: OLR ' E ERKEL THE CLASS COLORS Purple and Silver September 1915 saw the entrance of the class of ' 19 into the clois- ters of Rice. As soon as the routine of lousiness had been estciblished, the class of ' 19 got together for its first election. This resulted in the choosing of Butter — the present Lieut. — Lee H. Gripon as president. ' Nineteen had now made itself known, and rapidly set about to be- come a living part of Rice. The men of the class distinguished them- selves in athletics, while the women took to social and literary activities, not by any means omitting the famous cloister courses . September of 1916 saw ' 19 return to Rice in force to renew its former ties. Thanksgiving night ' 19 opened its social season with a delightful dance. Other entertainments followed. Suddenly came the cry of war, and in the call to arms Rice re- sponded nobly. On May 4, 1917, the class of 1919 gave a beautiful and appropriate Farewell dance to the men of Rice who were leaving to serve the nation. September of 1917 brought back ' 19, greatly thinned in numbers, but still the same proud class. The women of the class did their part in war W ' Ork, and several informal dances took place during the year. With the beginning of this year, came a mere handful of the old class of ' 19. But January brought back to ' 19 its soldiers and again the spirit of old was resumed. Spring, and the approach of June ushered in a whirlwind of gaities for the Seniors. There were many informal dances, parties, and lunch- eons, and on ' Slav 3, 1919, the long looked for Junior Prom. .Vnd then more dances and luncheons until commencement week witii its Senior American, its banquet, its annual garden party and then, a.s a fitting climax, the beautiful Final Ball at the Country Club on the evening of June 9. T JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY President : Fred Fraley Vice-President : Alaiirine Mills. Secretary : Anna Schirnier Treasurer: Paul Bobb. Only once has the pride of the class of ' 20 been lowered. A well directed stream of water quenclied the burning spirit of revolt that the me n of ' 20 harljored one afternoon against the oppressive Sophomores. But even then the Freshmen acquitted themselves creditably in the brief fight which followed. They then i)roceeded to win all the inter-class football, l)asketball, and baseliall contests and declare themselves the athletic champions of Rice. Quite naturally. Coach Arbuckle turned to the class of ' 20 for some of the mainstays of the football team — and he found, among others, Grif A ' ance, Little MacFarland, Jim Potts, and Dud jar is. It is said — parenthetically — that these men had some little to do with the origin of the famous 20-0 score. The class of ' 20 returned in the fall of ' 18 to play the rather un- popular role of non-coms in the R. U. T. C. But in the fall of ' 18, too, came the unforgettal)le trip to Texas University. Se -en Sophomores vv ' ere on the Rice team that we carried off the field on our shoulders that momentous afternoon. In January, 1 ' 1 ' ' , when the Juniors who had been real soldiers came back to their proud old class. Rice activities were renewed. Then it was that some unassuming members of the Junior class proposed to make the moon rise. Through no fault of their own. the business of rimning Rice was pressed upon the class of ' 20 for these last two terms. And who can justh ' sa ' that affairs were not managed well?

Wilford The class of ' 21 takes particuhir pride in having set one jjrecedent that jferhaps wiU mean as mucli to the University as ariything in Rice ' s student history. E en though thev arri ed at their decision kite in the year, members of the present Sophomore class were the first to re- solve to abolish indiscriminate hazing. The incoming Sophomore class decided shortly afterward to adopt the same policy. Class ' 21 has an enviable athletic record behind it. The first year seven R sweaters went to as manv freshmen finds in football. Four members of the basket ball squad were men of the class of ' 21. The Freshman class was equally as well represented on the track anrj base- ball teams th.at year. The men of ' 21 ha e maintained with honor the class reputation in athletics during the past year also. The present Sophomore class furnished two of Rice ' s scholarship students this year and shov ed more honor roll material in the com- mencement announcements of 1 19. m c— VTILL w pyc oh cai40i a- r.

The customary pranks followed each other with bewildering rapidity, running a race with the approaching military ser- vice. Finally on October 1, many freshmen breathed more easily; loots substituted right front into line for angle theta and prepare for inspection for slime, grab this broom. Then came the gruelling days of the first term and the joyous holi- day ' s which introduced the remaining half of the class to its taste of college life. And once more the class tasted the wrath of the sophomores. Then one morning as the mists slowlv lifted themselves from the prairie, there was born the spirit of th.e class, 1922 in figures of glistening- white adorned the car shed. Al! earthly trace is now gone but that which can not be erased still li ' es in the class.

MCMXVIII CA H c ■ THE BRITISH EDUCATIONAL MISSION O OCCASKJN in llie academic life of the Rice Institute incc the dedicatory festival in the autumn of 1912 has been of wider public sig-nificance than the visit of the British Educational Mission during Thanksoi -ing week of 191S. The object of this Mission, visiting America for two months on imita- tion of the Council of National Defense, was to study typical institutions and confer with representative American educators with a view to establishing closer relations in the future betv een the universities of Great Britain and those of the United States, through the in.terchange of instructors, students, academic credits, and educational experience. The itinerary of the Mission ' s American journey, which e.xtcnded from October 8th to Decemlier 7th inclusive, covered, among other institutions, the following in order: ' Columliia. Johns Hopkins, Pennsyh ' ania, Princeton, ' ale, and Har ard in the East; McGil!, Toronto, Michigan, Chicago, ' isconsin, and Minnesota, in the North ; and Cincinnati, Kentucky, ' ashington, ' anderbilt, Tulane, Rice, and A ' irginia. in the South. The Rice Institute has the distinction of being the only institution west of the Mississippi River Avhich recei ed a visit from the entire Mission. jMoreover, the visit was of three days dtu-ation. beginning Monday, November 23th, while several memljers extended their sta - in Houston to the end of the wcik. All members of th.e Mission consented to deliver lectures at the Rice In- stitute. In particular, three of these lectures inaugurated the newly founded Sharp lectureshi]) in civics and philanlhropv. In honor of the Mission ' s isit a great academic festival was arranged, the program of which included their formal lectures on science and the humanities, together with conferences on edu- cation, reconstruction, and the wider horizons of state, church and unix-ersity after the war. Invitations were extended to the Governors and other publicists of Texas, New Mexico. Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana, to jiarticipate in these conferences, The route of the Mission ' s journey lay through New Orleans, and through the courteous provision of a private car by friends of the Rice Institute, the members of the Mission were guests of the Institute from New r)rleans to Houston and return. The Personnel of the Party. The personnel of the Mission consisted of the following distinguished educa- tionists of England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales : DR.

The city and the people of the city co-operated to the fullest extent in the reception of the Mis- sion. The Mission was formally re- ceived at a public convocation in the Faculty Chamber on Monday morning. November 25th. Ad- dresses of welcome were delivered b} ' the President of the Institute and the Governor of Texas, to which responses were made by the ice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge, and the Professor This meeting was followed SIR HENRY MIERS AND ARTHUR EVERETT SHIPLEY of Moral Philisophy at the University of (jlasgow. by a luncheon in honor of the Mission given by the Municipal Government at the Rice Hotel, at which the Mce-Chancellor of the University of Manchester, and the Professor of Geology and Mineralogy at Trinity College, Dublin, re- sponded to addresses of welcome on the part of the Mayor of Houston, the Governor of Texas, and the Chairman of the Trustees of the Rice Institute. In the afternoon of the same day Dr. Arthur Exerett Shipley delivered a lecture on the Depths of the Sea, at which a former prizeman of the lecturer ' s university. Professor Daniell of the Institute, presided. In the evening Dr. John Toly lectured on the Recent Advances in our Knowledoe of Pleochroic Haloes at a meeting under the presidency of Professor Heaps of Rice. The evening lecture was followed by a brilliant reception of the Mission and all friends of the Institute at the residence of Captain and Mrs. James Addison Baker. Tuesday morning was devoted to conferences on education after the war, which were opened by addresses on History after the ' ar, by Dr. Dana Carleton Munro, Professor of Mediaeval History at Princeton University; Science after the ' ar, by Dr. Harold Albert Wilson, F. R. S., Professor of Physics at the Rice Institute: and Education in Texas after the War, by Go -ernor. William Pettus Hobby. Chamber of Commerce Tenders Luncheon. ( )n Tuesday a luncheon was served by the Chamber of Conmierce at the Rice Hotel at which responses were made by the Brigadier-General of the United States Army in command at Camp Logan, the ' ice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge, and the ' ice-Chancellor of the Unixersity of Manchester, to speeches - delivered by Vice-President Cage and Ex-President Peden, of the Chamber. In the afternoon the Rev. Dr. Edward Mewburn ' alker lectured on the Newly Discovered Fragments of Ephorus, and their Bearing on the Author- ship of the Hellenica Oxyrhynchia. The lecturer was introduced by Professor Glascock of the Institute. In the evening Professor Sir Henry Alexander Miers. F. R. S , lectured on the Birth and Growth of Crystals. at which a former col- league of the lecturer ' s. Professor H. A. ' ilson. F. R. S.. of the Rice Institute, presided. Following this meeting the meniljers of the Alission and other guests of Rice were entertained, at a smoker given by the University Club of Houston. The Conference on Reconstruction After the War.

In the afternoon of Wednesday. Professor Sir Henry Jones delivered a lec- ture on The State and the Citizen, the first of a series of three lectures on The Obligations and Pri ileges of Citizenship, inaugurating the recently founded Sharp Lectureship in Ci ' ics and Philanthropy. At this meeting Profes- sor Caldwell of the Institute presided and introducetl the lecturer. That e ' ening an illustrated lecture on The University of Oxford was gi en by the Rev. Dr. Edward Alewburn Walker, when Professor Blanchard of the Institute introduced the speaker. And later in the evening a dinner-in-hall in honor of the Alission was given bv the Trustees at the Commons of the first Residental Hall, when the President of the Institute acted as toastmaster, and the several members of the Mission and the other visiting- lectures responded to toasts. Thursday afternoon Profes.sor Sir Henry Jones con- p |HH HK g MyttBtf tinned liis series of three lectures on The Oldigations and Privileges of Citi?ensliip by a lecture on The Condi- tions of Good Citizenship, at which Professor Watkin of the Rice Institute presided. .And in the evening there was scheduled a lecture entitled, Some Characteristics of English Poetry Immediately Before the War (1900-1914) , by Miss Caroline F. E. Spurgeon of the Mission, who was to have been introduced by Professor VVoodridge of the _ Institute. Sir Henry Jones Concludes the Program. Frida ' afternoon Professor Sir Henry bmes con- cluded his series with a lecture on The Rights of the State and the Rights of Humanity. Professor Tsanoff of the Institute presided at the meeting. For the evening there appeared on the program a lecturr on tlie League of Nations, by Miss Rose Sidgwick, who was to have been introduced by Professor Humphrey of the Institute. L ' nfortunately. Miss Spurgeon and Mi.ss Sidgwick wer e unable Ijecause of physical indisposition to complete the itinerary of the Mission, and, accordingly, they were not among the visitors to the Rice Institute at the time of the festival. However, their lectures will be included with the other performances of the festival which are to be incorporated in a volume commemorating the occasion. .•T.11 academic exercises were suspended during the fes- tival, and the students took full advantage of the unusual opportunities thus afforded them. The visit of these dis- tinguished scholars was a distinct compliment to the new university, and not only established personal and insti- tutional bonds of sympathy and interest, but, coming so speedily on the heels of the signing of the armistice and at the .American autumn Thanksgiving season, it also in- spired renewed enthusiasm for learning and grateful re- consecration to .Anglo-Saxon ideals, for, as was inscribed orr. tic -Dir Tr • •c c t ' l par chmcut commcmoi ative program now hanging oiK rllirNKl JU.NC.O - , 1 T 1 r-i 1 ..XT . i i i ■ in the Faculty Lhamber, Nature has made us kmsmen ; the ancient truth, lieauty, justice, and hardiness of our race, again freemen. THE OFFICIAL MISSION OF FRENCH SCHOLARS -¥ Almost immediately in the wake of the British Educational Mission came a visit to Rice from the Official Mission of French Scholars, which, on invitation of the American Council on Education, was visiting America under the patronage of the French Government, and with the encouragement of the government of the United States. The Mis- sion arrived in this country early in November and remained through Decemljer, coming in response to specific and repeated retjuests from several American institutions of learning to have repre- sentative French scholars interpret to them the dominant elements of French culture, as a means of binding F ' rance and America more closely to- gether in intellectual sym]iathy. The Members of the Mission. The French Mission was composed of : PROFESSOR THEODORE REINACH, editor of the Gazette des Beaux-Arts. DR. EMMANUEL DE MARTONNE, Profes- sor of Geographv at the Universitv of Paris. DR. FERNAND BALDENSPERGER, Pro- fessor of Modern Comparati e Literature at the Sorbonne. DR. LOUIS CAZAML N. lish Literature at the L niversitv of Paris. DR. ETIENNE BURNET, Specialist oi Pasteur Institute. MR. CHARLES KOECHLIN, composer musical critic; and Mr. Seymour de Ricci, Art in Europe. In order to cover a wider range of the North American continent, the Mis- sion l roke up into three groups. The group taking the more southerly route, by way of New Orleans, to the Pacific Coast, consisted of Professor and Madame Louis Cazamian, Mr. Charles Koechlin, and Professor Emmanuel de Martonne. This party reached Houston Monday morning, December 0th, and departed on the tenth of the Grand Canyon, thus making at the Rice Institute their only educational visit between New Orleans and Los Ang-eles. Professor of Eng- the and art DR. LOUIS CA3AMIAN critic and former Editor of MR. CHARLES KOECHLIN MRS. LOUIS CAZAMIAN THE FRENCH MISSION DR. LOUIS CAZAMIAN The following program had been arranged for their Rice Institute isit; MONDAY, DECEMBER 9TH 11:30 A. M. — In the Faculty Chamber of the Rice Institute, a lecture on the Real France Revealed in tier Scenery and Peoples, by Dr. Emmanuel dc Martonne, Professor of Geography at the Univer- sity of Paris; Professor Benjamin Mather ' oodbridge of the Rice Institute presiding. 3 :00 P. M. — In the Faculty Chamber of the Rice Institute, a lectttre on the Unity of France, by Dr. Louis Cazamian, Professor of English Literature at the Uni -ersity of Paris; Professor Frederic Thomas Blanchard of the Rice Institute presiding. 5 :00 P. M. — At the Majestic Theatre, a lectu.re on Tr.adition in t ' rench Music, by Mr. Charles Koechlin, composer and musical critic, witli vocal music illustrations by Mrs. Louis Cazamian ; Dr. Lester Burton Struthers of the Rice Institute presiding. 8:00 P. M. — In the Physics Amphitheatre of the Rice Institute, a lecture on Family Life in France, by Mrs. Louis Cazamian, visiting lec- turer ; Dr. Neil Cole Arvin of the Rice Institute presiding. This program was carried out in detail with the exception of the lecture by Professor de Martonne, who, following his sudden recall to France to participate in the deliberations of the Peace Conference, was compelled to cancel all his subsequent American engagements. The visit of these eminent citizens of France recalled the cordial recognition accorded the Rice Institute in its earliest days bv the University of Paris, the mother and model of all modern universities, for that ancient university sent not only an elaborate address for the i)ermanent records of the Rice Institute, but also one of its leading scientists. Professor Emil Borel, as an official repre- sentative at the dedicatory ceremonies, in the place of his most distinguished colleague, the late Professor Henri Poincare, who had shortly before his death accepted the invitation of the Trustees to deliver the first of the inaugural lec- tures at the Rice Institute. COL. C. J. CRANE, Commandant U. S. Army Ret. SlSf I i ' v It-y m COL. CRANE ' S STAFF OFFICERS THE RESPONSE OF RICE To win renomn. To stand the first in worth as in command; To add new honors tc their native land; Before their eyes their might)) sires to place And emulate the glories of our race. The enviable privilege of recording briefly the part that Rice Institute played in aiding the Allied cause belongs to the editors of this annual, since it is the first to be published since the end of the war. At this time, the history must, of necessity. be incomplete. But the ser ice record of Rice, even as it now stands, is glorious; and we of Rice are justly proud of it. When tlie first call came for men to fill the training camps, sons of Rice responded. This first contingent was made up of the older men, and the loss was felt most keenly in the class of ' 17. But from that time on • — from that fair midnight in May when under the flag the departing soldiers bade us farewell — there was a steady stream of volunteers leav- ing Rice from all classes. Notwithstanding the circumstances that we began only in the autunm of 1912, and then, with a single class of fifty- nine mcmljers, one third of whom were women, an l year by year have added but one class annually, with men and women in that same jiropor- tion, there are — exclusive of the S. A. T. C. with its several hundred members — four hundred stars on our student service flag. As was found the case in most universities, the aviation service made the strongest ap- peal to the daring of college men ; this branch was by far the most popular with our men who answered the call of the nation. LEON SPRINGS The first body of Rice men to leave the cloisters for the camps was composed of thirty-three students who gained admission to the first Leon Springs Officers ' Training camp. Perhaps the most impressive feature of the ' 17 Commencement exercises was the granting of degrees in absentia to manj- of these candidate officers. The record of these men in training was an inspiration to undergratuates of Rice who were to follow in their footsteps. Of this first thirty-three, one was made major, several became captains, and the remainder attained the rank of first and second lieutenants. ' irtually all of these officers served over- seas. c— s a -r-:- «-■■■ V R. O. T. C. But for tliose who, followint - the iiijiinctioii of I ' residcnt Wilson, continued their studies at Rice, rudimentary mihtary training was pro- vided through the esta1)lishment of a Reserve Officers ' Training Corps unit. Under the leadership of Capt. T. M. Reagan, Commandant, four companies of cadets were organized and the dormitory men lived for the first time under strict military regulations. Later in the year, when it was feared that the academic standard of the men suffered from con- flict with military demands, some of the most se ere of these restrictions were abolished, llowever, drill and study of military tactics were con- tinued throughout the •car with unabated zeal. The final step taken bv those in authority was the selection of forty-seven men to fill Rice ' s quota for the summer training camp at Fort Sheritlan, Illinois. m FORT SHERIDAN The watchword of the grand old fort on the shores of Lake Michigan was discipline, severe and unrelenting. An overlooked button, an un- tied shoe lace, meant freedom of the Post on Sunday instead of a coveted trip to Chicago. But no one can justly say th;it the strenuous training at Fort .Sheridan was not made enjo3 ' able under the intelligent leadership of competent and considerate officers. Second in command at the camp was Major J. B. Frazier, whom men in the Rice contingent remembered as our first commandant. After drilling all day. the cadets were fre- quently marched into the big gymnasium under the shadow of the well known ,Sherida;i tower to listen to lectures. Ciiven rest, the represen- tatives of scores of schools from the entire southern and central portions of the United States immediately began to give college yells and songs. Several of the larger schools had sent o er a hundred men each, yet above the din in the great assemblv could be heard distinctlv, Yea, Rice! At the end of the first month, cadets in high military standing were given an opportunity to return for two months of further training. Most of the Rice men accepted the offer, although they did not know at the time that a commission was in store for them. The record of the men who stayed and those others from Rice who were sent to swell their numbers was 100 per cent perfect. After a brief furlough, all of these officers were detailed to arious schools in the country to act as in- structors in the Students ' Army Training Corps. QEGULATION JAJ, EVENINe- i . o 1 1 ) LiNTf fiidL mmmwH •k mc mwH S. A. T. C. There was a marked falling ' off of old faces when the fall term of 1918 opened at Kice. hut the loss was more than com])ensated h ' the influx of new men who recot nized in the S. A. T. C. the c|uickest and surest channel to an officer ' s training- camp. In the mornin.g shadows of the Administration biulding. the battalion, (Ira ' n up in a hollow square, swore allegaance to the flag and received an inspiriti e charge from Dr. Lovett and the Commandant. Then began the active work of ' organization. Under the leadership of Colonel C. J. Crane, Captain R. W. Knight, and Lieutenants B. F. Adams, E. J. Coyle, Mar -in Eicken- j roht, L. F. Follet, and King ' ivion, two war strength companies were formed. Cadet officers in the corps were appointed from the number who had received summer training at the Fort Sheridan and Plattsburg Camps. The schedule of duties, though calling for two hours morning drill, guard duty, and regular academic work, was carried out with re- markable harmonv. A spirit of friendly rivalry sprang up between companies A and B v. ' hich culminated in a football game — and decisive victory for the former company. A stimulus to further effort on the part of the cadets was the selec- tion of ten men for the Field Artiller}- training camp at Ft. Monroe, Virginia. The eight men of this detail who remained after the signing of the armistice until the completion of the camp were all commissioned second lieutenants. Later two lists were made public by the Commandant — one recom- mending eight men for transfer to the aviation service, the other detail- ing seventeen cadets for infantry training at Camp McArthur, Texas. Since William, the Last, of Germany retired the night following the departure of these men, the former group received their only flying sensations from a whirling chair test, and the latter detail of embryo officers gratefully returned to Rice after thirty days of nuid wading, freezing, and delectable police duty. ;- i MSARIN f3C mmr pa CUTIE ? STUDENT STARS Jeff Mitchell of the class of ' 19 stands the foremost at present of our Rice heroes. Sergeant l Iitchell went over with the Devil Dogs and fought in their midst in five of their greatest ad -ances. He was seriously wounded in the glorious 1:)attle of the Marne and later awarded the Croix de Cluerre for exceptionally valorous conduct in one of the charges of that battle. Jeff is now convalescing on this side, and states that he will return to Rice next fall. Captain Buhl Moore, 13th Machine Gun Battalion, A. E. F., dis- played extraordinary heroism in leading his company while under heavy machine gun and artillery fire reads an extract from a general order which includes a list of citations. Those who know feel that Buhl, a member of the class of ' 20, recei ed some inwaluable pre-bellum train- ing on a sinister Rice trip to A. M. to recover a certain stolen Owl. Captain Moore hopes that his watch on the Rhine will end in time to permit him to return to school next year. Miss Louise Beraud, a student at Rice for three years, saw dis- tinguished service overseas. With two other young women she stayed at an important military switchboard while the building burned around her. All three heroines were cited in a divisional general order the ne.xt day. , Two men from Rice, true to the traditions of our young school, car- ried our athletic fame abroad. Sergeant Mick Brown, our speedy little half-back who finished his fourth year at Rice in 1917, is credited by Stars and Stripes, the official newspaper of the American Expedi- tionary forces, with outshining Eddie Mahan — the Har ard Ail-Ameri- can star — in advancing the ball. Which is just another way of saying that Mick is the best football player in the American overseas forces. Morris Marshall Kirksey, a student at Rice during the year 1916-17 broke the tape a winner in the final heat of one of the dash events in a huge inter-allied track meet held several weeks ago in England. Track representatives from four armies competed in the meet. THE REST OF US. And as for the rest of us, the other four hundred, who remained Safe At The College, little need be said. Some think we were cheated of a chance to serve — some think we were lucky — we don ' t — but opin- ions differ widely. This much is certain: we heartily resent the state- ment that the draft blew us in — we were on our toes to go — our hearts arid our envy followed the men who left. Perhaps, after all, it will not be so hard to concoct a bloody story for the credulous little soldier whom we may some day find sitting on our knees. a ' . ' .:. ' .

The good that these men whom we loaned for the duration of the war did for Allied lorces is inestimable. Space limitations permit us to hint at the work of only seven of these gentlemen. Dr. Stockton Axson, professor of English lireratiire at Rice, was among the first of onr faculty to offer his services to the govern- ment. He was made National Secretary of tlie .American Red Cross, and granted leave if al)sence from the Institute, The success if the Red Cross on the Western fnmt is due to the energetic work of Dr. . xson per- liaps more than to that of an}- otlier one man. Dr. Axson is at present in Geneva, Switzer- land, taking a leading part in the organiza- tion of a world Red Cross. According to latest advices. Dr. .A.xson will return to our teaching staff next vear. It was with mingled pride and pleasure that the student hody welcomed the return last March of Dr. Harold Albert Wilson, who had been in government service since the summer of 1917. During his absence our professor of Physics had been directing the work of sev- eral hundred men in an experiinental labora- tory of the United States Navy. His chosen specialty here was anti-submarine warfare service. Although the nature of his re- searches still are kept secret, Dr. Wilson is credited by men who were associated with him as being the inventor of the famous Sea Tube — the listening device which proved s deadlv to submarines. n ' 1 MAJOR THOMAS LIXDSEV ET.AYXEV. professor of languages at Rice, has liecn decorated v.itli tlie Croix de Guerre and made officer of the first class of the famous French Chie Devils for finest qualities of dash, courage and coolness . He saw general staff service with the British hefore Ypres, with a noted French division near Amiens, and with, the United States army before Chateau Thierry . C)nly recentl) ' he was selected to accompany an allied mission into Germany. DR. GRIFFITH CONRAD EVANS, professor of pure mathematics at Rice, was sent to Europe as a captain in the Aviation Corps. While in Italy he accepted I lie very responsible position of Scientific Attache to the American Embassy at Rome. For over a year, with characteristic efficiency. Dr. Evans conducted mathe- matical researches which lay largely in the field of aviation. Students at Rice will again have the privilege of instruction under Dr. Evans during the coming year. DR. ARTHUR LLEWELYN HUGHES, assistant professor of physics, dis- tinguished himself with a crew of thirty men off the coast of England by his highly successwul experimental work in the anti-sulimarine department of the British navy. A thick veil of secrecy still clothes his work here Tnit it is known lliat, in the course of his research, he chummed with British admirals and experi- enced all the thrills of dirigibles and mystery sliips. Dr. Hughes has performed Lis customary duties at Rice since January last. DR. ALBERT LEON GUERARD, professor of French, not only won for himself distinction for military service in the French Liaison department but has also received recently some notice abroad for his latest book, La Revue de Paris. Dr. Guerard was commissioned at Leon Springs, Te.Kas, and transferred to the Liaison department after arriving overseas. The editors have so far been imahle to confirm a report that Dr. Guerard was decorated liy the French government with the Croix de Guerre. The record of our assistant professor of Chemistry, Dr. Harry Boyer Weiser. and th.e sixty researchers under him at Washin.gton is especially gratifying to students who know him at Rice. The work of Captain Weiser ' s unit, having to do chiefly with highly poisonous gas experimentation, entailed discomfort at all times and called for unfailing courage. Dr. Weiser was welcomed back to Rice in January, , A complete li rt uf tlic iv.embers of the Rice faculty who entered active governiiient service fulhnvs: Philip Heehman Arhiickle, Director of Athletics; Stockton Axson, Professor of English Literature; Thomas Lindsey Blayney, Professor of German; Hubert Evelyn Bray, Instructor in Mathematics; Griffith Conrad Evans, Professor of Pure Mathematics; William Casper Graustein, Assistant Professor of M.ithematics: Albert Leon Guerard, Professor of Frencli: Raymond Preston Hawes, Instructor in Education; Arthur Llewelyn Hughes, Assistant Pro- fessor of Physics; Herbert Kay Hup.iphrey, Instructor in Electrical Engineering; Julian Sorell Huxley, Assistant Professor of Biology, Baldwin Maxwell, Instructor in English; Samuel Glenn McCann, Instructor in History; Hugh .Miller, Lecturer in Civil Engineering; Joseph Horace Pound, Instructor in Mechanical Engineering; Johh Clark Tidden, Instructor in Archi- tectural Drawing and Painting; Wilbur Earle Tisdale, Instructor in Physics; Harry Boyer Weiser, Instructor in Chemistry; Thomas King Whipple, Instructor in English; Harold Alliert Wilson, Professor of Pi;ysics; Edgar H.

FOOTBALL 1918 Though at first glance the football season of 1918 appears to have been highly unsatisfactory to Rice, vet there is much that will be looked back upon with pleasure, much that will we recognized as inevitable, and much that will be contemplated with satisfaction by those who are at all cognizant of the conditions existent at Rice during the fall of 1918. The conditions here were duplicated in large part at all the other schools of the State. Schedules were shattered, squads were broken up. coaching staffs were depleted, and altogether the season was nothing but a sort of hit-or-miss affair, when victories counted but little and championships went for naught. The old team of last fall was first and last a war team. From the initial call to arms in May, 1917, until the cessation of hostilitie s in November of last year there went into service a continuous stream of Rice athletes who responded willingly, eagerly, and in numbers. The great team of 1917 soon scattered to different camps, practically every man of the squad doffing moleskins and donning khaki. Thus when the training sea- son started last September tliere were on hand but two regulars and one reserve man from the preceding year, this small nucleus being backed up by only a medium sized bunch of raw rookies. With Athletic Director Ar- buckle in government service en- gaged in teaching Uncle Sam ' s soldiers how to keep physicall) fit, it had been necessarj- to se- cure a new coach. The new coach arrived, heralded l)y glowing ac- John E. Anderson won the affection of every man on the squad before he had been at Rice twenty-four hours. But to the coach Rice was new, Texa was new, and this section ' s style of footljall playing was new. Handicapped by laboring under these strange circumstances, and with a squad that w-as ninety per cent green, it is no wonder that the coach ' s hopes at the start of the season were not flamboyant. However, flying into the task with might and main much good work was done and the stage set for the opening of the season. A good schedule had been arranged and the Owls were on their toes to start. Then the blowing up of the schedule. Came an order frimi the war department making it impossible for the Owls to have any college games during the first half of the season, effectually asst. coach jack coomb HEAD COACH JOHN ANDERSON counts of his record in Northern schools Oh u Its o J 03 O c J= O II « g - •- o H S fhimpeiiing Owl ardor. Athletics must he subordinated to the military, the consequence being that the nicely laid football plans went sky-rocketing. Hurry-up games were scheduled with military teams, every one of wliich was com- i;osed of seasoned, experienced veterans, stars from other larger schools. Nearly every game was played in deep mud resulting from the almost continuous rains of the fall mak- ing it well nigh impossible for the lighter Owls to make headway against the big huskies from the army camps. To add to the jubilee, along came the influenza epidemic striking down Jack Coombs, ■;ssistant coach, and forcing liim to remain aljsent from Rice during a large part of the season, thereby leaving on one man ' s shoulders all the duties heretofore carried liy two I ' r three. And always from two to half a dozen niemljers of the squad were out of the run- ning due to the flu. Much material for discouragement, one might say, but the indubitable fact is that no discouragement resulted. From first to last the Owl eleven fought with the same old spirit and carried the teams of 1915, 1910, and 1917 to within reacliing distance of cham- pionsliips. The Rice collegiate season was composed of two games. The Owls secured a fifty- fifty break, for, thougli Texas University wrested a victory from tlie Owls, Rice evened the balance 1 ' druMiing the Mustangs of Southern Methodist University. The men who battled on the Owl team of 1918 have had their baptism of fire, they have tasted defeat, thej ' now are seasoned veterans, with an added grimness and with no capacity for over confidence. They will make great players next year. The 1919 Owl eleven promises to be the most formidalde Rice has ever put upun the gridiron. The veterans who made the strong teams of the past three years will be on hand to enter the fray. Coach Arbuckle is devoting his entire energy towards next fall. If the 1918 se srm cor.tain. something of unpleasantness, retrospect must give way to prospect. Ho, for 1919! But a glance at tlie results of the 1918 season is interesting. Out of seven contests, though the Owls garnbered but a single victory, they met but tour defeats since two tie games were played. In the seven affairs, the total number of tallies chalked up against the Owls was but fifty-eight, a trifle more than one touchdown per game. In plain fact, a very creditable showing. l the games were played on Rice Field. The season ' s results : October 5 — Camp Logan 10 — Rice 0. October 19 — Park Place Aviators 7 — Rice 0. October 26 — Camp Logan — Rice 0. November 2— Kelly Field 28— Rice 0. November 9 — Park Place Aviators — Rice 0. November 16 — Texas University 14 — Rice 0. November 31 — Southern Methodist University — Rice 13. I C— 9 THE ARMY GAMES The Rice eleven met its firi-t defeat t the yt.-ar liefure a Camp Li.gan sqund made up in its en- tirety from football stars in the 57th infantry. The weather on that Saturday afternoun of October 5th was a bit too warm, but spectacular plays on both sides kept the pepper up to par and the spectators interest whetted to a sharp edge. Tlie game with its final score of 10-0 in favor of the soldiers was well fought all the way — the poignant regret of most of the Rice supporters being that there was only one Bell in the game. Outweighed ten pounds to a man, the whole Rice team fought with admirable determination — but Captair. Bell did most of the starring. However, Brown, Stow and Putnam on tr.e Logan lineup proved too niucli for the Owl squad of warriors and the soldiers carried away the Ijacon sewed in the proverbial canvas sack. Two weeks later, October 19th, the valiant Owls lost the second game of the season to a group of tcasoned football men, with whom flying must have been wholly incidental, from Park Place Field. Again the players were forced to struggle under the scorching heat of an unmerciful Texas sun. Both reams were cons.derably handicapped at the time, too, by the absence of several reliables who were confined with the flu. Just prior to the game ' s start a squadron of twelve airplanes circles the grid- iron and one machine dropped a pigskin that was to start the game. For three periods the rival elevens Ijattled to and fro on no man ' s territory and affairs remained seemingly in no man ' s favor. In the final quarter, however, the birdmen managed to push the ball down the field with perfectly good. st.aight line plunges. Williams, who had just come into the game fresh from the last quarter, plunged tli rough the Rice line and got a touchdoivvn for the Park Place team with a narrow margin uf three inches. Emerson kicked goal for the aviators — and the final score stood 7-0 in their favor. A god called Jupiter Pluvius, for want of a better name, had unquestioned control over the return game that the Owls fought with the Camp Logan team from the 15th division on October 26. But the score of soaked spectators who watched the proceedings from points of vantage under the grandstands certainly saw an exhibition of grit incomparable. There is no gainsaying that the game was a strik- ing tribute to the courage of the ligliter L wl team. Ttie Rice men fought and slid and fell and got knocked out on the muddy field only to rise and fight again. And they fought the heavier team that had defeated them in the first gaine to a positive standsti 11. Brown and Putnam did the stellar work a second time for the Logan team while Leroy Bell insisted on running around end, making long punts and doing various other stunts that were calculated to discomfort the musky soldier team. DePrato, a ne.vcomer on the Owl eleven hit his stride and lielped materially m holding tlie Camp Logan squad to the 0-0 tie that resulted. The Owls met their only real decisive defeat of the season on November 2nd, at the hands of a picked lot of Southern, Eastern, Vv ' e stern. Northern and Central college stars, who were stationed at the time at Kelly Field, San Antonio. The aviator eleven had the Rice team bested in age, weight, experience, speed and several other points of the honored sport, so the Owls had little reason to feel any disap- pointment or shanie at the 28-0 score that the brilliant Kelly line-up carried away with them. Leading the Kelly was a certain handy left end who had played with the famous O ' .vl team of 1917 — Shirley Brick. That one fact alone was enough to disconcert the Owls a I)it before the game started. But those who saw the Rice eleven fight gamely remember that the entire line held well. Seldom did bucking the Rice line avail the aviators anything ; in fact, bucking the Owl line that afternoon was cut of the question. But Kelly soon learned that end runs and forward passes were sure ground gainers against the Rice team, and Brick made his strong combination specialize almost entirely on those tfjvo styles of play. That those long passes were disastrous to the Owls is attested to by the 2S-0 one-sided score. The three local players who compared to the visitors were Bell, Heath and McFarland. A thrilling mud struggle wound up Rice ' s military footliall schedule on November 9th when the Park Place squad gave the Owls a return game on the Institute field. Very little football camouflage and finesse were restorted to by either combination; it was a question of straight play courage and sure foot- edness, one might almost say web-foeledness. in the mud that counted most toward victory. As regards the last requisite, the Owls had no advantage over the Park Place men, as one might think at first blush, since the latter team had been practicing for several weeks on the Rice gridiron. The hard fought and slippery game ended in a draw which, Samuel Pepys might dryly add, favored neither side. THE TEXAS GAME The Owls had their first colltge game of the year wlien the Texas L ' niversity Longhorns charged the Rice camp on November 16, with all the dope pointed in ti-.e direction of the visitors. Having swept everytliing before them up to that time, the Longhorn supporters felt justified in believing that the Tcxans would have little trouble in running up a big, fat score. But not so. The staunch OwlP ortastecl the onslaught of the Longhorn stampede, and when the iweary Austinites started Tiomewara tney were forced to nurse tneir somewhat unsatisfactory scor of 14 to 0. Stacking many pounds heavier to the man, the doughty Longhorns charged time and again the Owls ' delense, only to be turned back— no gain. McFarland ' s masterly work as defensive center, and the elusive tactics of the Owl ends, DePrato and Brown, smeared many a goo dpiay startd by the Long- horns; and the other men in that line held with a rare good will. Duggan, the Tarzan of the team smashed the Texas interference whenever he got a chance. The backfield was not asleep in the de- tense work; Hoettcher, meaty Owl fullback, crashed through and felled his man on many occasions. While this defensive play of the Owls was the most brilliant feature of the game, cne home Doys were not found wanting when tlie pigskin was in their hands. Bell ripped off many a long gafn around end. Boettcher hit the line with the force of a Big Bertha, and Dyer slipped through for several good distances. The sloppy field held back the lighter Owls, but the song was not sung by the Longhorns aione. WARMING UP— TEXAS GAME THE VICTORY OVER S. M. U. The season came to a close when ti :c (.);vls played their second college game, this time, against the Mustangs of Southern Methodist L ' niversity. The Oa ' Is took the big end of the score, 13 to 0. The first victory of the season was clearcut. The Owls won on their hard, heady play, showing by their ag- gressiveness and facility that they had just hit their 191S stride. Had other games been played it is not unlikely that the scoring column on the Owls ' chalk board would have been fattened up without ii.uch ado. Though it was a clearcut victory, the Mustangs showed a deal of punch and ability .The Owls possibly outweighed the visitors some fe;v pounds to the man, Init this did not daunt ilie Steeds. A certain G. Pierce, quarterback for the Mustangs, showed as much real foutljall talent as aiiybudy seen on the Owl gridiron during the 1918 seaon. Heath and Bell were awarded the palms for making Rice ' s only scores. In the second quarter, after a 12- yard gain around end Iiy Captain Tony Bell, the ball was placed on the Mustangs 4-yard line. Here Heath took it and rammed through for a touchdown, while the stands went wild over the first blood Rice had drawn on that field t. .at season. Bell kiclied goal, giving occasiun to a new l.)urst from the stands. And in the fourth quarter, after a Mustang kick blocked by DePrato, the Owls secured the oval and dashed down the field and across the enemy goal in d jublt quick time. Soon ended what was, from the Owl standpoint, the greatest game of the year 1918. S. M. U. GAME-RICE FIRST DOWN COMPANY A vs. COMPANY B Months of spirited company rivalry came to an end when Company A clearly outclassed Company B in the gridiron struggle for the battalion championship on December 7, score 19-7. As regards football technique, tre game was not especially brilliant, but time and again there were remarkable flashes of class on one side or the other. The inter-company game probably commanded more interest than any other of the season — yet those who were expecting trou ' -le during the settlement of this family di- ' piue were disappointed. There were infractions of football etiquette, to ne sure, and plenty of them. Vet when penalties were assessed, everyone kept in a perfectly good sports- man-like humor. The forward passing of th.e A company team was pretty to watch. Buddy Rose, speedy quarterback for the winning eleven, seemed to have an uncanny al:)ility in pass- ing the pigskins to members of his coinlji- nation, thereby making long gains. A forward pass from Rose to Urban, left tackle for Company A, netted the firsf touchdown the the team gathered. After a succession of passes and line bucks had brought the ball to the goal line. Rose slip ped thro gh for the second t luchduwn for his team. Th.e third of the victor ' s touciidowns came as the chniax ti a ?]iectacuiar tnrty arii held race by Hill, fullbacks of the Comitany A eleven, after he had intercepted an enemy pass. Company J drew first Idood in the game and gained their lone score in the first fa.v minutes cf play. Good team work rushed the ball down the field in double quick time -ind Harlan went over for the tally. The commanding officer of each company played in the lineup of his team. Lieutenant King Vivion played a good game at left tackle for Company A while Lieutenant Buddy Folleit did some nice work for his Company B at riglu end. By mutual agreement of the two opposing teams, no letter men were allowed to participate in the inter-company battle. Many players who were ineligible for the first team, played stellar ball in this game. Among those starring were Gerlach, Hill, Rose, Cnnningiiam, Nelms, i-ienderton and Bonner.

For tlirec seasons lie lias been tlie mainstay of the Owl eleven and has obtained a letter each season. Last year he was an all-state half and would have iirobably been this year if one liad been chosen. He has starred in practically every game the Owls have played, l.eroy came from Oklahoma and played on the Central State Normal eleven of that state for two years before he came to Rice. This is his last year at school and the Owl squad will have to arrange to get along without the veteran next season. In addition to his athletics honors Bell has had many academic honors showered upon him. McFARLAND,— crack center, Miice upon a time played witli the Drownwood high school, hut his work with the gray and blue for three years has eclipsed all his hi.uli school activities. As defensive cen- ter Mas could not be beat. He va chosen to lead the 1919 eleven by the teammates who played along- side him during the 1918 season. HEATH— half liack of talcni, played with the high school team Corpus Christi before he put on ;i Rice jersey. During 1917 he showo! his speed in the bakefield, and in 1918 he was the regular for his posi tion. In addition to Heath ' s abilii to wend his way down the field will the hall under his arm, he is a kicki i of merit. ?  VILBIG— left guard was his |ilucc and he did his joli well. Though possessing a marked abilit in getting jjlack eyes in the ganic and out, X ' ilbig was a hard man to go through and his quickness ami strength splattered many an oppii - ing play. Yee Bee they called him liut he was the king bee in the guard position. POLLARD,— the husky right tackle, was one of the bright lights on the eleven of Jasper hich scIuhiI before he journeyed down to Rice His defensive work was as good a- could lie asked, for he seldom faild to get his man when the play wa- put through in his direction. With more experience Pollard should be a regulation battering ram. BROWN, right end, hails from Waco High school. Although a Sophomore this is his first football season and he has made good in it. Krown ' s weight and speed obtained many yards of territory for the Owls during the past season against the beavv teams we encountered. HARLAN,— halfback was his position and playing it was his specialty. Harlan came from Bart- k ' tt, which. Fried Atlas tells us, is lialfway in Bell and halfway in Wil- liamson counties; but there was no halfway measures about Nepos. Harlan was on the Owlet sciuad of l ' 17, and one of the liig guns with the regulars of 1918. DePRATO, the big freshman left rnd, came to us with a football repu- lation preciously earned. He was ,ni all-state tackle on the Texarkana lligh team and his showing here was of the first water. DePrato is a modest individual when off the field but he mixes only too well with foot- ball opponents of Rice as they found out in the past season. DUGGAN,— l)ig in heart and ])ody and brain, it vi ' as natural that this young husky should play a good game at guard. And it came to pass that Coach Arl)uckle saith that Dug- gan hath the makings of a greai All-State guard in him. He is registered at Belton, Texas. DYER,— It used to be thought that Louisiana was where liooze came from, liut now the first tiling thought of in connection witli Louisiana is that Dyer came from that State. He was speedy, ekisive, and a good field general, thereby possessing all the attributes of a great quarterback. And he was. ALEXANDER.— Upon a time this 180 piiund }Oungster was playing footljall in Atlanta, Georgia. He hunted a good school and came to Rice. Though he started late in the season he made a great tackle be- fore the season was nearly over. If this boy ever gets his big frame working certainly, there is not the slightest question liut that he will be a world lieater. BOETTCHER,— the regular and almost the only fullliack on the Owl squad, played almost all of every game the Owls had scheduled and he never faltered. He played red- headed footboll, for that was the kind of a man he was, and after Piggy Fulwiler Rice knows what red-headed football is. Grit, tena- city, and drive is Boettcher all over. Houston ' s his home. UNDERWOOD— is well known at Hi ' uey (imve, and he played a sweet game at tackle whenever he got a chance with the Owls. Some say that the well known W. W. ' s worried LInderwood a bit, but he forgot everything but football when he took his place in the line-up. That VV.W. stuff is mere rumor liut his good playing is established fact. BASKETBALL 1918 sickness, lack of veteran material, outside reverses, and a lot of hick which was all bad formed a combination with which the Owls were unable to cope during the 1919 basketball season. The baskct- ball schedules for this season were purely transition affairs, and none of the Texas teams worried c.reatly about the final results. All eyes were turned toward next year, and the 1919 programs were looked upon almost as mere training schedules for the mighty aggregations which should take the field in 1920. The victories went for a song, and the championship was not contested for with near the vim of former years. The gaping holes made liy the war in the line-ups of the different teams had not yet iieen filled, though oust of the otlier State teams were more furtunate in this regard than was Rice. As the squad lined up at the tart of the season, Rice had one lone veteran among a small number of freshmen and new material. And this lone veteran had had but a single season in college basket ball. Br(J.vn, who made a grfeat finish in the 1918 games when the Owls garnered the flag, was the only man who could be called veteran among those who answered Coach Tisdale ' s final call. Thus the season was begun. One veteran and an exceedingly slim bunch of new rookies from the first year class. Tlie team must need be recrvilted from those who had been substitutes in former years and those who had never played at all. Dodge, whose speed and agility during the 1918 season caused him to lie elected captain of the 1919 quint, return.ed to Rice from the naval flying corps, but the budding (_)wl hopes were squelched wiien his doctor ordered the speedy pilot to stay off the court because of a bad heart. The Owl program included Te.x:as, South ' .vestern, Baylor, Texas Christian, and Southern Methodist universities. More than half the games were played in Houston, and in those home games Rice got an even break, though a couple of defeats at the hands of the Christians started the season off in the wrong direction. After the season had advanced, Kingsland. wl.o led the 1918 quint, returned from the army, and stepped immediately into his old place at center; but the lengthy Ding was not in proper condition and his aim was not as accurate as in former years. This, mixed with the extreme care with which th2 opposing center always guarded the feared KJng?!and, kept the lanky one ' s talents under cjver. Th:ugh his coming meant a great deal to the Owls, he was never able to help out much in the scoring. After the home stay came the road trip which was disastrous to Owl hopes . N ith LeRoy Bell un- able to take the jaunt with his teammates because of a broken shoulder sustained in the Texas games, and with the rest of the team not in the best of form, there was no consideralile surprise when the trip did not bolster up the standing of tr.e Owls in the percentage column. When all the results were in it was found that the Owls had not made a woncerful showing on paper, but there was one feature of the season which added to the glory of those who wore the blue and gray in the basketball games of 1919. Though beset by myriad difficulties, though meeting defeat alter defeat, though seemingly unable to shake off the jinx ' which had fastened on the Rice standard, yet the squad to a man fought from first to last with might and main, iiever faltering, never showing the least trace of yellow, never conducting themselves in any other manner but that which would leave tlie fair name of Rice unsullied. Though the Owls lacked somewhat in ability and experience, never- theless, when it came down to fight and grit, the Owls had them Ijoth in full quantity. BASKET BALL LETTERS AWARDED HUGH LEROY BELL LAWRENCE MYRICK KINGSLAND EDWARD VANDTVER ]?R()WN HENRY MALCOLM LO ' ETT FRANK LEAKE GERLACH HUGH RALEIGH McKEAN n 5 o rt PS 9- = S 1- o ' - c S o l- HS;q BROWN — Van cap- tained the Owl quiiitet through its strenous season this year. The great stride that he found as guard en the championship team of ' 18 never left him. Guarding was his posi- tion, but he counted in no the scoring in al- most every game. His work at all times was steady and score build- ing — never erratic. Brown should make a mainstay of the invin- cible basketball team that will fight lor blue and grey next j-ear. KINGSLAND. — ' Ding ' came l:)ack from Ft. Monroe just in time to shed his officer ' s uni- form in favor of ihe gym suit. However, his late start worked against him and his form never attained the quality of past seasons. Because of his very rep , he was more closely guarded than any other man on the floor. This year ' s bas- ketliall letter was the fourth in the sport Kingsland has cornered in his trophy chase. BELL— Won his first basketball letter with the team this seas an. This R made iiell the second four letter man of Rice. Enter Monsieur Jinx : Leroy — after four years of colege athletics without injuries — slis- tained a painful broken shoulder while playing guard in one of the earlier games this year. He came back Ijefore the season closed, and played the same hard game — on the offensive most of the time. G E RL A C H — Tin speedy to be fjlloAc-d around the court in liis rush after the ball, Gtr- lach was a oon i stent scoring asset for ' he Owls. He never let liis push and figh waver for an instant ; frcjuently he carried the brunt -jf the attack. A clean player all the vvay, he nevertheless made many personal fouls in his eagerness to fight for the ball. Keep your eyes on Gerlach next year! McKEAN — Came out from comparative ob- scurity 01 early season to a remarkable finish. This Freshman won his first R on the l ns- ketball team this year; it - not be liis last. Experience will make McKeen a player to be feared on the court. He is fast and heavy enough to follow the ball to all foui corners and back again. McKeen ' s posi- tion on the Owl squad was guarding. LOVETT. — Little Doc made his debut into the R association via the basketliall road tliis year. What Lovett lacked in weight and experience, he more than made up for in speed. never and unmistakable basketball stuff, and his accuracy in shooting goals became proverb ' al. With the invaluable ex- perience that he receiv- ed on the quintet this year. Little D n c should show liie big things that are expect- ed of him in the 1920 season. - r : WINSBOROUGH. — A Georgia peach product and an all around ath- lete. Robb won Ins ini- tial R with the quin- tet this season. In every game he was a hard worker and scrapper ot the first class. His scooped up long shots in several games javorod strongly of flatteriig luck until they 1 ecame a habit. Winsborough has a great basketball future in store for him. BASEBALL 1918 After two such successful seasons as Rice had in basket ball and football in the year 1917- ' 18, it was with the same fighting spirit that the men who had liattled for those honors turned to baseball. Because Rice did not get in the final rush for the championship, or because Rice did not win that Jfe_ q J iBB J honor vvit ' i an undisputed claim is not indication of J jjD ' jjH H the way the season went. At the very outset, when fc I MBBHBI Jack Coombs had dropped down for another few l h 38B weeks of work on the Rice coaching staff and had looked over the available material there was a de- cided lack of promising players. . Iialf dozen weeks of stringent workouts was enough to sift the good from the bad and indifferent. With a mere handful of the good ones. Coombs finished his al- loted time and left the team without a coach. The results of the season are creditalile — decidedly so, for the Owls were without a coach from the departure of Coombs to the final inning of the last came. Captain Heywood worked double duty, as a player and director, and with a regular coach, it is not unreasonable to think that the team would have ended another championship season for the ' 17- ' 17 period. Things looked very promising when the team opened uji with a win over Howard Payne in the get away. In fact l.ioth of the openers were Owl victories very clearly. Pre- season form had been groomed down to fairl f good playing ability, but an indication of the misplays that followed showed up in those games. The one big difficulty of the Owls through the whole season was in fielding the ball. That i ne thing alone lost most of the six games. The best the Owls coulil do with the Mustangs was an even l)reak. The first loss of 3 to 2 was rather an awakening, but the second resulted more favorably with the Owls victors 11 to 1. In the second game Hathorn held the S. M. U. boys at his mercy, fanning 19 out of 31 who faced him. These games filled the schedule on home ground for a time, and the team took on local talent in order to smooth out the rough places that still re- mained. Several games were played with varied success, but even in these games, the team clearly showed the lack of definite organization. Road trips have always been a bugaboo to the Owls and the one this ear proved no exception. Out of five road games, the team took two. Piad weather was encountered most of the way, making it rather hard on the team. Immediately after the boys returned. Captain Heywood was called into the army, and with Heywood gone, the team was badly torn up. Just three more games were played, resulting in one victory and two losses.

TRACK 1918 Though war ' s demands had shot to pieces track schedules, programs, and squads, the 1918 season was far from unsatisfactory from the standpoint of the Owls. The onl - big meet Rice entered ended favorably for tlie blue and s:ray, the representatives of Rice in this meet acquitting themselves most favorably. This was the .Southwest con- ference meet held at Stillwater. Oklahoma, ha ' ing as host ihc . gricultural and Mechanical college of the sister State just to the north of us. (iather there were delegates from all the big schools of the Southwest, including Arkansas State Universit -, r ' xas State I ' niversity, Te.xas A. M. College. Baylor and both the ' Oklahoma State institutions. The day of the preliminaries started off with a big rain, and it appeared as if the affair would ha e to be called off, but decision finally went against Jupiter Pknius and it was determined that the meet would be held, rain or no. .So preparations went on. Rice ' s representati es were willing to tackle the job with the rest, and the meetwas held. Kingsland took the high jumji with ease, despite the fact that the jumping standards had to be moved off the muddy field and set up on the university cacpus. sans sand pit and sans most e eiything else which should go with a well ordered high jumping contest. But Kingsland was not daunted by these matters and proceeded to break the Southwest record half an inch. He was breaking his own record here, for the mark had been set by him at five feet and eleven inches the year before. Besides Kingsland, Rice had but two other delegates on the field, but both the other men brought yet more renown to Rice. Harlan, running for the blue and gray in the half mile marched away with a place, while Dowell, tripping through the mile for Rice, came in a good second in this gruelling race. Dowell ' s beautiful stride was remarked upon, and his reappearance at Rice in time for the 1920 track season would be hailed with delight by all Rice ' s supporters.

With tliree good courts and a tennis chib that numliers among its memliers a good portion of the co-ed student body, it is but natural that the sport should be followed closely. As part of the commencement program each year the final tennis tournament among the girls is held. The Tennis Club has been going at full steam for several years. In the spring of 1915 the Girls ' Tennis Ckit) was first organized, in order to promote interest in tennis among the girls of Rice, and the following officers were elected : Helen Weinberg, president ; Mary Jane Stratford, vice-president; Louise Beraud, secretary and treasurer. A great leal of enthusiasm was sliown from the start and the tennis talent of the school was brought to light. At the first tournament which was held in June two cups were offered. Miss Waggaman won tlie singles and Misses Lucy Taylor and Mary Jane Stratford were victorious in the douliles. In the tournaments in June Miss Waggaman again won the singles. For the term lieginning 1917 the following officers were elected: Camille Waggaman, president; Tillie Hirsch, secretary: Mary Lou Brown, treasurer. In May, the first social event of the club was held on the tennis courts in th.e form of a Tennis Tea. At four a merry group of girls appeared dressed in middies and swinging racquets, ready for the fray, . fter each girl had received a card announcing her partner and court number, the pla ing began, each couple progressing or lieing eliminated as they won or lost. Tlie girl winning the largest number of games was awarded a beautiful, shiny tin cup. From a booth gay with pillows and pennants, and presided over by Misses Waggaman and Brown, delicious cakes and tea were served. At six o ' clock everyone went home tired l.iut happy. Owing to war conditions the tnurnaments were held liy the girls alone on the girls ' courts. The singles contested by Misses Filson and Plumldey were won by the former; and the doubles contested by Misses Filson and Hirsch against Misses Waggaman and Plumldey were won by the former team. The following officers were elected for the past year: Katherine Filson, president; Jeiuiie Rose Mood, vice-president: Alma Nemir, secretary; arid Dorothy Plumbley, treas- urer. In order to give begmners a chance to learn the game, round-robin tournaments in which everyone played, have been held on tlie courts once a week and tennis shill has Iieen acquired along with the inevitable coat of tan and frckles. There were five entrants in the finals which were held as usual this year during com- : a£_ W u V _ ' - mencement week. In the singles. Miss Dorothy Plum1)ley went down in defeat before Miss Katherine Filson. Misses Tillie Hirsch and Dorothy Plumhley won from Misses Mary Cottingham and Christine Schultz in the doubles. The Institute awarded silver cups to the three victors in the ournament. CO-ED BASKET BALL The past year is the first which has seen Rice girls playing basket ball, but such tlie} ' did. Two speedy teams were organized and some first class court talent was uncovered in the fast games held in the gymnasium of the Young Women ' s Christian association. Though no intercollegiate contests were engaged in by the co-eds. promise has lieen held of contests of this nature in the future. Cither athletic work was done bv the co-eds at the Y. W. C. A. gvm. THE HIKING CLUB . nother co-ed organization whicli is almost purely athletic is the Hiking Club. Hiis dull also has been under headway for several years. In September, 1916. a girls ' Hiking- Club was formed at Rice Institute with Miss Ruth Sullivan as president. This clu!) met each Thursday and, laden with wieners, biuis. pickles, and other eats, started off for some distant shady nook beside a spring of water. The club was one of the peppiest in the whole Institute and the rosy cheeks and splendid health of the memliers spoke for the advisaliility of such a plan. Last year military drill for girls was made a part of the curriculum, and consequently such a thing as a hiking club was shunned for two reasons: first, there was no time to hike; secondly, the drills furnished too much hiking. But this year, the club has been reorganized. The officers are as follows : president, Tillie Hirsch; vice-president, Svotia Brown; secretary, Frances Foote ; treasurer. Nancy Dupree; official fire maker, Ernest Faber; official chaperone. Lucille Brand; instructor in flora and fauna, Grace Hubbell ; F.ats Committee, Lucy Zimmer, Magalee Adams, and Lucille Lawrence. As one can see from the list of officers, the purpose .f the hiking club is instructive as well as health and fun producing. The instructor in flora and fauna. Miss Hubliell, is a good student of biology, and on each hike she explains in detail the unusual plants and animals encountered. It is sad to say that as yet nothing worse than a snake has appeared, but some time in the future, the girls hope to meet a pink elephant or something of the sort. Sunday morning, just at sunrise, the girls love to get up, take a hunk of Ijacon and a loaf of bread and beat it out into the wilderness and enjoy life. On May 1st, a swimming party was enjoyed by the club at the Heights Nat. The expert divers made good use of the high diving boards, while those more timid kept the rope from running away.

English comedy. The cast was re- cruited from members of the faculty and student body. Miss Florence McAllister took the leading role with much success. Mr. Heaps played opposite as Wobl les , gi ing a splendid interpretation of the proverbial Englishman. Mr. Tid- den was most amusing as Bobljy , while Ottis Pearson also took a lead- ing part. The rest of the cast. Misses Fredie Wolf, Marie Louise Hogg, Denoailles McCarty. Maud Campljell, Messrs. Sherrick, Chillman, MuHer, and Murnaghan furnished a strong support. Two performances were presented to enthusiastic audiences. Due to insist- ent demands assurances were given that a Y, W. C. A. play would be an annual affair thereafter. • • • • Y. M.— Y. W. C. A. The faculty and students of The Rice Institute Are cordially invited to attend The annual Y. M.-Y. W. C. A. Reception Saturday afternoon, September 28 Institute Commons Four to Six. A college lives not by learning alone but by tradition. An Indian summer out-of-doors, a shrubbery-clustered quadrangle, far away music, groups of timid Freshmen and animated upper classmen, a happy intermingling of professors and professors ' wives, all centered about an ivy and lace set punch bowl. The changes of war gave to this year ' s reception a certain indi ' iduality. There were uniformed men about and many new members of the faculty who had come to take places of those absent in war service. But each guest was con- spicuously tagged with a card bearing his name and station, and newness made one the more honored. Unusually successful was the reception, the first social event of the school year. c— 10 OPENING DANCL Tlie opening- dance, which was gi i.-n at the Bcn.der Hotel balh-oom on the e ening of September 2:i. was not a class affair. The attendance was smaller than usual at this particular occasion due to the epidemic of Spanish influenza. Nevertlieless, the dance was enjo ' ed by all, as the music was furnished by a sidendid negro jazz band. Since no one was willing to stop at midnight, the jazz was continued into the morning hours. A feature of the dance which was in keeping with war time restrictions was the serving of delicious ice water throughout the occasion. In- deed, the opening dance — characterized by novel simplicity — was a good begin- ning for the social activities of the ensuing year. • • • • A COMPANY DANCE A being the initial letter of the alphabet. A Company started things by gi ing the initial company dance on Saturday, November 9. The dance was given in the Institute Commons, an excellent jazz band furnisJiing the music for the affair. A desired effect was secured by covering the lights with jack-o ' - lanterns so as to partially darken the room. With this mellow light and soft strains of music, enjoyment was inevitable. Delicious punch was served, and Jack sa}s, from the amount drunk up there must o ' been some joy spread. • • • • ELIZABETH BALDWIN INITIATION PARTY The act of becoming a Roman citizen is sur rounded by no more glory than is the act of becoming a member of the Elizabeth Baldwin Literary Society. Accordingly on November 17, amid great dignity and splendor, seventeen new members were taken into this organization. The ilub room was most attractively decorated for the occasion in the club colors of royal purple and white. The officers of the club, Misses Mauriiie ] Iills, Kathr ■n Lubbock, Helen Redfield, and Airs. (Ittis Secor adorned the new members with the Roman toga. After the formal part of | ' - the ceremony, refreshments carrying out the club colors were served and a general good time followed. THE FRESHMAN DANCE The Freshman (hmce was the first real college affair of the year in a social way. After the signing of the armistice the demand for class dances rather than company hops became evident and the Fresh- men followed the custom of making their debut into Rice affairs an November 30th. by a dance complimentary to the upper class- men. The arrival of the class president, Leonard Hurt, was an- nounced bv the ringing of a cowbell. The Sophomores had taken great care to properly attire him in a wellow Chinese blouse, red Turkish trousers, yellow stickings, and a Roman helmet ; his face painted Indian fashion an l his eyes covered in a most scholarly style by large tortise shell glasses. After a general investigation of the berobed president he led the grand march with Miss Margaret Harrel, and the dance was on. • • • E. B. L. S. CHRISTMAS TREE Christmas. 1918, was a big time for the Fdizaljeth Baldwin Literarv Society. In keeping with the Yuletide, a party was held wherein a Christmas tree was the most active feature. A bona-fide, forest primeval tree hung with half a hundred interest inspiring- packages occupied a commanding place in the club room. To secure as a present one of the packages, each member was required to do a stunt. An extraordi- nary array of amusement resulted. After the stunts the gifts were distributed, and much merriment followed the excited opening of the gift packages. • • • • SECOND FRESHMAN DANCE On Friday, February 7, the Freshmen celebrated the return of Rice men from service with giving a most enjoyable dance at the Uni -ersity Club. Uni- forms of various kinds were in evidence, and, judging from the an.TOunt of pep displayed, Rice was indeed happy to welcome back her former students. The music was inviting--almost inspiring; the punch was delectable. The decoration scheme was simple but effective. It was a jolly crowd that reluctantly left the University Club as the strains of Home, Sweet Home died out. WASHINGTON BIRTHDAY DANCE Marking the annual custom of lionoring ( leorge Washington ' s birthday with a dance, the boys of the Institute entertained on the evening of February 21. The affair was given at the University Club, where a marvellously smooth floor and entrancing music lent additional incenti e to the already keen desire for dancing. The dainty pro- grams listed sixteen dance numbers, every one of which was thoroughly enjoyed. With a strict sense of propriety on celebrating such ' occasions, those present insisted on dancing well past midnight into Washington ' s natal day itself. • • • • P. A. L. S. RECEPTION The Pallas Athene Literary Society held its initial meeting February 2o. The club room was attractively decorated with garlands of Killarney roses, the club flowers, while the windows and lights were shaded by pink and green — the club colors. Miss Oscie Sanders, president, in t he opening address ga ' e the i)urpose and meaning of the new society, after which President Lovett welcomed it as a part of the Institute. Cake and cream in the club colors were served. The patronesses of the society were guests of honor. • • JUNIOR-FRESHMAN TACKY PARTY The tacky party, gi -en by the Junior girls to their sisters of ' 22. was a delightful event. On a warm Saturday afternoon of spring, queerly garbed maidens appeared in the cloisters, and collected in the gaily decorated study hall. A line of introduction, figuring only fictitious names, made the crowd thoroughly at home. Jolly games and interesting contests furnished fun for everybodv. In keeping with the spirit of the affair, only soda-pop and ginger snaps were served. A body of impartial judges awarded the prize — sight unseen — to the tackiest guest. • • • SOPHOMORE DANCE On FViday, March 21, the Rice program of informal social affairs for the year ended with the Sophomore Jig. The event was a success in ever ' wa - ; Sidney ' s Orchestra furnished the misic, while Jack presided at the punch bowl. Dean and Mrs. Caldwell were the popular chaperones of the e -ening. The jirograms were large gray and blue folders. When the dance was at its ery height a green banner l)earing the words Freshmen ' 22 slowly unfolded itself from the ceiling. This challenge of open meeting was quickly accepted by the Sophomores. The offending bunting suf- fered a fate which the Freshmen themselves fell heir to a few hours after- wards. JUNIOR SENIOR PROMENADE In the Institute Commons the evening of May 5, the Juniors gave tlieir annual ])arting entertainment to the Seniors. The large mess hall was beautifully decorated for the event. Suspended from the electroliers — draped in rainbow hues in baloon efefcts — were large garden hats filled with field flowers. The same ingenious color scheme was carried out in the adjoining reception room where punch was served. Wicker ])edestals top]jed by ferns and ])alms on the platform all but iiid an able orchestra, which dispensed compelling music. The e ' ening of spirited dancing and enchanting strolls was opened by a grand march, led by Miss Estelle Streetman and Fred Fraley. president of the Junior class. The si.xteen dances of the exening were listed in a most attractive check- ered programme, ha ' ing as its cover a connotatixe sketch of a dancing couple. During the intermissions the dancers promenaded in the full splendor of the moon. During one intermission an ice course was ser e(l in which the rainbow colors and the class of ' 20 idea were novelly carried out. • • HER HUSBAND ' S WIFE irlcr Husband ' s Wife, the three act comedy given l)y the Institute V. W. C. A., at the South End. Junior High School on May 20th, stands out distinctly as the dramatic success of the college year. The ])erformance lacked the usual amateur roughness because of the splendid coaching of Miss Julia Ilogan, recreational secretary of the Y. W. C. A. Miss Adelaide Lox ' ett handled the very difficult part of the li pochdndiac wife in a way that could hardly be impro ed. The role of her husband ' s wife was splendidly taken by Miss Gladys Hurlburt. One J. Tom Rather, Jr., lived the part of the blase Uncle John. The crux of most of the humorous points of the play rested with the quaint old bachelor uncle. Albert Yam Thomas took the part of the abused husband and drunkard with a realism that invited grave suspicion. Shirley Simons had the role of the moody brother Dick. His acting im- mediately won the sympathy of the audience for the wavering, indignant youth he ]:iortrayed. Miss Anah Alarie Leland was, quite naturally, petite and magnetic as Nora, the maid. The highly successful comedy was managed for the Y. ' . C. A. by Miss .- nna Schirmer, assisted by Misses George Marshall Dukes ; Leata Smith. Frances Foote, Maurine Mills, Dorothy Wilson and Louise Moore. rf H- , 4: kCCIilHliiClFMiif m HE COMMENCEMENT of 1918 was unlike the commencements of other years. Many events, including- the Final Ball, Senior Banquet, and Senior American, were eleminatecl becau?e — with our country engaged in the great World War — the students of the Senior class deemed giving to war funds more worthy than ending money on social affairs that usually mean so much to the graduates. The elimination of social events, however, made the commencement of ' 18 the more impressive for its seriousness and simplicity — one not soon to be forgotten y its graduates. ORATORICAL CONTEST In the Faculu- chamber on Friday night, the oratorical contest was lield be- tween two of the literary societies of Rice — The (_  wl composed of men, and the hdizabeth Baldwin composed of women. The Elizabeth Baldwin Society had the distinction of winning the decision in the contest. The candidates chose their own subjects. BACCALAUREATE SERMON The more seriijus side of commencement was witnessed on Sunday morning by a multitude of people, friends both of the graduates and of Rice Institute. The Academic Procession was head- ed by Dr. Lovett, Rev. James Gore King McClure of Illinois, and Dr. Caldwell, followed by the trustees, faculty, graduates, and alumni. The prc ' cssion started from fhe Physics builrling :;nd circled aroiuid the hedges t(.) the ]iIatform erected in the salh- port. Dr. Lovett offered the iin ' O- cation. The splendid sermon of Rew McClure, president of the McCormick Theological Seminary of Chicago, was then deli ered in behalf of tlie graduates of 1918. Towards the end of his ser- mon, Re -. McClure separately addressed the graduating class, at which time all of the seniors arose. The address was ery inspiritive and lef; a lasting memor ' with those present. CONFERRING OF DEGREES On Monday, June the tenth, the commence;nent exercises were opened by the Academic Procession winding its way through the cloisters of the Physics and .Administration buildings. It was headed for this occasion by Dr. Lovett and Judge Phillips, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Te.xas, who later deli ered the commencement address, . fter the in ' ocation, offered by Dr. Lovett, Judge Phillips spoke to the assembly. When the Judge finished his splendid address, the e -ent of most moment for the class of ' 18 took place — the conferring of degrees. Mr. P. J. Daniell read the names of the graduates, and as Dr, Lovett conferred the degrees and presented the diploma. Dr. Caldwell hooded each Senior. The ranks were considerably thinned out on account of many boys serving the countr} ' in the arm ' or na ' , but des:rees were conferred on these in absentia. There were several distinctive features to tlie Commencement ' IS. One of the?e was the conferring of degrees upon two men in imiform who had obtained leave of absence from the army for this occasion. The first Doctor of Philosophy degree that has even been presented at Rice Institute was given at this time to Mr. Hubert E. Bray. Then, too, at the commence- ment T8 exercises was announced one of the most important events that has taken place in the history of the Institute — the announcement of donation of se ' eral gifts in the form of scholar- ships. GIFTS ANNOUNCED Dr. LoN ' ett read three letters making known the handsome gifts with which Rice Institute had been endowed. The first of these was ths Graham Baker Studentship Fund given bv Cap- tain James A. Baker, chairman of the Board of Trustees, and Mrs. Baker. It was a gift of $6,000 in memory of their deceased son. the income from which was to provide a scholarship for students of highest academic standing. The next gift was an endowed chair in civics and pliilanlliropy tendered the Institute by Mrs. Estelle R. Sharp. This consisted in a five }-ear annual gift of $.3,000 for the expenses of the courses named including a lecturer ; and four scholarships of $250 each to promote the train- ing of social service workers in the South. The scholarships are known as the Sharj) Scholar- ships in Civics and Philanthropv. The last gift was the Hohenthal Scholarship Fund which consisted in a perpetual trust fund for the use of students with high standing trying to go through Rice. The gift was secured through the last will and testament of the late Mr. Lionel Hohenthal. This fund was established as a memorial to his mother, father, and brother. GARDEN PARTY A sky that was somber and sodden brought anxiet - to the hearts of those who had held high hopes of a Garden. Party that would be perfect. Still, though the threat of the weather man was more than fvUfilled, the brightest anticipations of the guests were more than realized in the pleas- ures of this joyous social event tendered the graduating class by President and Mrs. Lovett. The party began with a whir of gayety that echoed through the cloisters and rooms of the Administration and Physics building. In the receiving line, which occupied the Arcade, were, with the hosts, the members of the Class of ' 18 who received congratulations from a host of relatives and friends. An earl} ' twilight made an end of a social iesti -al that had filled the hearts of many hajipy friends with all the gladness that could be crowded into a sinp;le afternoon.

I hardly need mention the occasion of this meeting. We, the voice of Houston, must speak and save Rice Institute before it ig too late. We must lay aside the knitting needle of peace and take up the trenchant rolling pin of war. By the way, Mrs. Klinger. you know the constitution has been amended to forbid lap dcgs, so I must ask you to let the maid take out Beeswax, though he is a dear sweet cutie. 1 think I had better recall the history of these dreadful isms of Rice before proceeding to take definite action on this scurrilous tendency of the faculty; especially Bolshevism and also the sociological atmosphere as the dear niayor so aptl put it. Oh! I ' m so glad you came Mrs. Whatzername. We ' d given you up. Mv, what a dear precious dress. And so becoming. As I was saying, they were Bolsheviki at Rice from the -tart. (Rising passion.) Their insolence in flaunting the Red of the revolution is unbelievable. Didn ' t they maliciously and intentionally have every building on tlic campus covered it!i RED tile roofs? (Applause.) Beg pardon, Mrs. Lowd? Oh ! I see. , It is fiioved and seconded that a connnittee be appointed to dis- courage the ujc of RED tile on the roofs of Rice Institute ildings. ' inose favoring this worthy movement say aye. f The ayes have it. I will apprise the Rice board of trustees of our decision. But what we realty mu t attend to is that horrid Edwods man. Do you know he wears RED ties some times and is twisting the plastic minds of the students till they are all leaning tow?rd the RED (f Bolshevism? But sh-h-h! Let me tell you a secret. A friend of mine told me tlint her husband ' s cousin wife ' s friend was at the office of The Pest and u ' hile there overheard the office boy say that one of the intrepid reporters had concealed him- self behind a hedge long enough to hear one of the fislies, or whatever they call the new students, say, I have a case of the Red! Think of that, will you! Beg pardon, Mrs. Newsanz? ♦ I lieartily agree with you. It is moved and seconded th.at tne neckwear of Rice professors be investigated and, where the detestable color of RED has been used the board of trustees be given the proper instructiions. The ayes have it. Vou may remember that at our la?t meeting we insisted on the discharge of that Edwods creature and yet the trustees have had tlie audacity to hesitate three v ' hole days for investi- gation. I would have seen to the matter jjersonally but for the report on the new knitting needles. Now, ladies, it is with deep emotion that I Vjring up this point. As our dear leader, Mr. I-am-a-man has brought to public notice, youthful niiiids are being poisoned at that wicked institution by many ism ' s and dangerous doctrines. My husband ' s stenographer ' s niece happened to be visiting at the Institute. That afternoon I heard the young lady, whose truthfulness has never been questioned, say that between classes she saw the following dark words written on a blackboard: Heliotropism, galvanotropisTu, thigmotropism and chemotrop- ism. Now, ladies, I charge you! Could you wish for more conclusive proof that the deadly Ism ' s are being inculcated in sons and daughters of our Houston friends Will you please not interrupt me again, Mrs. Chowchows? I am speaking under the severe annoyance of an irritated throat now. Again, good ladies, it hv.rts me to inform you that the horrible doctrine of Evolution is also gaining sway at the Institute, whose interests we have most thoroughly at heart. It hns been whispered shamefully that a Rice under- graduate who lived in the dormitories is reported to have said that a certain mysterious Mr. Corker and his associate, Mr. Heath, encouraged the Survival of the l- ' attest. ' I protest! And now — i n closing — I should like to nominate our noble friend — Mr. Gawge Bay lee to the exalted position of Potential Paternal Potentate of our Clul . You all know that it is tT his genius we are indebted for the charming column called Late Afternoon Jabberations in the best morning paper in our city — The Pest. There is no need for a vote here. By acclima- tization I declare Mr. Bay lee elected. Now, if Mrs. T. Spoon will be so good as to bear v.ith me a few nu ments longer — er — er — I mean no offense — I should like to urge all of you ladies to be present at cliurch next Sun- day to hear Dr. Kickerknocker re-deliver, by special request — his famous invective called the Wicked Institution on the Boidevard. What, Mrs. Suite thing? Come to see you ? I most assuredly shall not ! Vou owe me a call! IN ACCUSATION. 1. In endless ecstasy they while away The time apportioned for another day. The mellow moon pours out its flood of light And plays around the common loving sight. With softest words and lingering caresses His liurning rapture he ardently professes. .She droops her head upon his manly breast; luidearments flow — each faster than the rest. Cut when, alas, she lifts her dainty head. She leaves a blotch of powder in its stead. The awful sight of which so mortifies The darlin.g thing that she gives up and cries. Don ' t mind ! he says the little doll to cheer, With very slight brushing ' twill disappear. She drops another tear in deeper woe . nd questions full of hurt, How do you kmiw?

I regret ver} ' much what I ha e been assigned to do, but as the Campanile must haxe a record of all the happenings on and off the cam- pus of the students of the year, I am here to do mv assigned work very much better than Pleath, Our Grand Kounter of Mouths, who thinks that as long as his viscera are filled with the cream on Corker ' s table that he has risen abo e eating the sponged bull-neck. Now, I have done it ; I have gone and mentioned a name. Since I have, I will not retrace my steps but will embroil some one, with each bound of this pen. who has stepped o ' er the bounds of good behaxior. Heaven Help This Working Girl. Did ou e er get a lecture on personal industry? Nope; well, you should ha e. The majority of the 1)0} ' S did. It came from ;i man ith vhom personal industry is personified. Mr. McCollum, an ambiguous Y secretary, from Australia, with nothing to do, would occasionalh ' hunt up a lost domino, execute a chess tourney, or even print a bulletin sign for the boys to come across with that pledge to the funds for the great and wonderful work of the Y in France. Name It. For the benefit of the few ' hose ways are so detestable that it does this good book an injustice to even print their names, I would suggest Ihat vou ask your next door neighbor his personal opinion frankl} ' at what school you would make a success. If he says, None I don ' t get sore at him ; you wf)n ' t ! ! The rankest of this class is an eighth wit slime, believed by himself to be a most popular, with eds as well as with co-eds, VQUng man. Then, there is a comely stude with that bolshe ik temperament, truly confessed, and instead of using our good showers for bathing, soaks himself weekly but strongly in herring oil. Lookout, Loots!! I need something solid in order to make this ha ' e a good shape and a fine construction. Minnie Rice would have won out in the beauty con- test, even if Katherine Graves would not have said, Those Junior boys are so ])unk ; I wanted a corsage so bad, or I just can ' t ride on those street cars. ' ' (Jh! well, it is the S. O. L. sarlie old line that l:)oth of them have l)een shooting to the loots from Logan and Ellington. Kute Kidders. I know of the Kidders ' Klub formed b - members of the girls of that set. Their officers are Chief High Kidder, Thelma Norton ; High Chief Kidder, Minnie Rice; Guardian of the Ritual, Katherhie (jrave ; Little Chief Nothing, Annah Marie Leland ; Exalted Man (irasper, Alar- garet Harrell ; and Honorary Members, Cad W ' ortham and Edina Hogan. It ' s in their ritual to get as many dates as possible in anv way and by any methods, known or unknown to those not blind. Then, with It — the date, of course — race madly to popularity on the Rice mezzanine. M: ! ih ' These Can Tame ' em. Among these kids to be pitied in their large way to break into societv by fvirnishing themselves as date material, Nepos Harlan has the place of honor amongst these ] Iezzapups, His uni ' ersal gratitude to the bo ' S in the dorms has made a gift of his nni -ersal indebtitnde. Well, I ' ll sav it this way, he borrows, goes, and, the rest of the time, o ves. Red Rockafellow lives in this social swirl on the good name of his rich p.amesake. W ' illet Wilson and Charles Bybee are the fashion plates; afraid to crack a smile, the crease in the pants may break. Incidentally, upon the return from date of new fields, they always have found one that has fallen for them. Teddy Mcllhenny has his feet on the fly paper. By the way, Steve Denny, lately from the wheeled carriage known as a go-cart, goes in for this dissipation like a bee after honey. Did yoK ever step out of an airplane that had run out of gasoline in mid-air? Well, E. O. Fitch and Edwin Lunn have that confidence in being men. Not only men, but men that ladies-in-waiting are waiting for. The ladies just so much as can ' t stay away from these two manly, good looking, graceful and slender, swell looking kids. It ' s a pity, better said a crime, savs Sitting Bull, to have the ladies crazy o ' er your ways, and not to care, only enough to confess openlv, Look out, women! I ' m a lady- killer! Another Ism — Egotism. As a prognosticator, r -e always been good. Bob Vinsborough, the chief high mopper of the gregarious slime class, wdl not be known by the time he will ha e completed his third year, nor will his class- mates care to say that they did know him. Through his short width brain surrounded by congealed calcified tissue runs the idea that fish can be made to recognize college customs by the Doctrine of Ostracism. It ' s a pity to let hi m go on thinking that he is a post grad in comparison to his constituents. Famous and Otherwise. For the benefit of the few who are still reading, I ' ll name some less deserving of mention. There ' s that Fat Lames Cewis Jaldwell McEad- den, with the set of names made to beat any back alley pickaninny ' s George Jones Jack Johnson Garfield Smith, ail serious, important as Shortly Mayer with a package of cigarettes, as obliging as a fat dago after dinner, and who thinks of none but the self same F. L. C. J. McF. Too bad if your name has not appeared. Most the unmentioned cases were censored. In others, the thing was too menial. Eh, ' Wot? You and I both have seen these mentioned things. Various and .sundry things should have been mentioned. I decided what should be said. Maybe you think that you could say more. You wouldn ' t dare. So thinks me. a seer, sometimes a doer himself and as author, veni, vidi-ed, ourselves as a Spectator. If some points characterize you, don ' t get sore ; ' tis my duty.

But in addition to this requirement you want and are entitled to have real comfort. convenience, good appearance and stability of value. All of these qualities are found in the Oakland Sensible Six to an unusual degree. We know that in most cases buyers can secure in the Oakland the things they want that would cost con- siderably more to purchase in other cars. We can also prove to ycur satisfaction that if you are going to invest in a car approximately the price of the Oakland, that the Oakland Sensible Six will give you greater doUar-for-doUar value, and will be mere thcrcughly satisfying to you in the long run, than any other car you can select.
