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.

wrom i in mi-mTAv MORE STAFF MEMBERS YOU SHOULD KNOW 3 John Alton Burdine has not been teaching many years, but he is already recognized as an authority on state government; students consider him a prince of a professor. As Secretary to the President Miss Frances Little is right in the middle of things,- her winning personality and efficiency make her practically indispensable. The old Library is not as busy as it once was, but it remains just as handsome. An engineering professor versed in the law — he was Parliamentarian in the House of Representatives — is a rare combination, but Read Granberry is just that; Mr. Granberry in his student days was President of the student body. Known throughout the tennis world as a builder of champions, good Dr. D. A. Penick gets paid only for teaching Greek and Latin. Mr. Tom Rousse is another former student who has established himself as an important faculty member,- his debate teams defeat strong competitors year after year. Brimming over with a personality that radiates enthusiasm and love of life, Mr. L. Theo. Bellmont in his position of Director of Men ' s Physical Training fills the whole of Gregory Gymnasium with good spirits; he was one of the founders of the Southwest Conference. Arthur Deen ' s picture is placed here because he has that rare knack of making his students look forward to attending his next class; he makes geology one of the most popular courses on the campus by pointing out its human side. Dr. L. L. Click is sought by many students in need of good, sound advice,- he is outstanding as a teacher and author of short stories and critic of contemporary literature. The gentleman coach is the name given to Clyde Littlefield; men send their sons to Texas to be under the guidance of this man; his track teams are consistent champions in the conference and fare well in national meets. As a student Arno Nowotny was a campus leader and today as Assistant Dean of Men he continues to take a sincere interest in campus activities,- he is known as a square shooter. In the lower left corner is the new Physics Building, while the new Geology Building occupies the lower right. In charge of all account- ing and bookkeeping in this great institution is Charles Sparenberg, our comparatively young Auditor, goodfellow, and outstanding C.P.A. Page 23
