I, raw E? WELL-KNOWN FIGURES ABOUT THE FORTY ACRES J N Flanked on either side by the twin oaks is the new Architecture Building. Dr. Robert Lee Moore, who is a member of the American Academy of Science, is one of the world ' s greatest authorities on the point-set theory of numbers. Judge Edward Crane is a law professor who realizes that there is more to the University than the Law Building,- he is a former Regent and was a very successful practitioner. Miss Lilia M. Casis has been on the staff since 1 896, making her the oldest lady in point of service; she is beloved by the many who have had occasion to know her. Genial Dr. C. P. Patterson mixes a keen sense of humor with a thorough understanding of government to make him- self a very popular person. Out of his zoology laboratory comes Dr. D. B. Casteel to help plan our new buildings as a member of the Faculty Building Committee. A good and true friend of the students is Dr. C. F. Arrowood; besides lecturing and writing on the history and phi- losophy of education, Dr. Arrowood serves as faculty advisor of student government. Unselfish service for the University twenty-four hours a day is the applied creed of Bill McGill; he has a way of getting things done. Besides building knowledge in physics, Dr. W. T. Mather builds character in many through his active work in the Y. M. C. A. and religious organizations. A nationally-known professor of law who remains at Texas while many other schools seek him is Judge Bryant Smith, a gentle- man and a scholar. An outstanding authority on classical subjects, Dr. W. J. Battle, who was Acting President at one time, is modern enough to supervise the erection of the new Library tower which replaces the old Main Building. At the end of the walk is the new Home ' Economics Building and framed by the bent oak is the Journalism Building, which ex-students will recognize as the old Engineering Building. Between the two is Dr. J. C. Dolley, authority on banking and investments and basketball, in which sport he is a former All-American. Page 22 vaL.
