Athletics in Danger
Finds Oklahoma Dean
Athens, Ohio, Feb. 18.•—"Ath-
letics will be pla(?ed 011 an
openly commercial basis within
in years unless steps are tak-
en immediately against hid-
den commercials," is the predic-
tion of W. A. Adams, dean of
the College of Business Admin-
isiration, at the I'niverslty of
Oklahoma.
A change in athletic policies
in colleges and universities
must soon be decided upon by
the public. Penn Adams insists.
"The best way to get super-
loot hull teams out of universi-
ties Is to pay the players sala-
ries. If the public believes col-
lege Institution* should be edu-
cational then "athletics should
be handled in a way that, would
m«ke sports subordinate to ed-
ucation.'' lie stated.

campus of a memorial statue of the
founder, tin- late William Marsh Rice.
On the creation of the statue, a seated
figure of heroic size in bronze, the !
sculptor, John Angel of New York,
has been engaged for rat her more
than two years. A great deal of Mr. <
Angel's heat known work In this
country appears in the Cathedral of
St. John the Divine in New York,
and some of it in the new chapel of
Princeton I'niverslty. The massive .
pedestal lor the liliy statue is of :
Texas granite, and bears on its four
faces, along with appropriate brief
inscriptions, the shields of the t'nit-
ed States, the State of Massachu-
setts. the State of Texas, and the Rice
Institute. In the architectural details |
the sculptor has had the co-opera- i
tion of Messrs. Cram & Ferguson of '

Co-eds and Fur Coat Boys
Name Pet Sex Taboos
Athens, Ohio, Feb. II).—Through a '
psychology test, that was recently i
conducted at the I'niverslty of Ne-
vada, the students of the school dis-
closed the habits of the opposite sex
which were the most annoying to
them. The quiz was of such a nature j
that 110 one except the writer knew
of the contents of his paper, and so J
it Is believed the results are fairly
representative and accurate.
The co-eds' answers included: "I
can't stand men who 'wolf their food
at the table: shake hands dimply, col-
or their experiences when relating
them: have cold sliiiip hands: who
wear spats and assume an air of
worldliness." The college man aver-
red: "I can't stand women who pow-
der their noses continually; try to be
kiddish and cunning: give details of
their lllne ss; have high shrill voices
and keep referring to previous pro-
posals they have had."

Rice Students Urged To
Return Stolen Property
Dormitorytetudents who took advan-
tage of the opportunity to buy Sehaef-
t'er fountain pens at a greatly reduced
price from strangers who visited the
halls some time ago, have recently
learned that, tlip pens were stolen
property.
The pens were taken, along with a
largo number of kodaks in the rob-
bery of the City Hook Store of Corsi-
<-iina. Altogether several hundred dol-
lars worth of merchandise was taken.
Defectives who have been working
on t he ca'-e and have found n connec-
tion between it and the other rob-
beries of like nature in nearby cities,
are not yet ready to release full de-
tails.
Officials of the Corslcann store
have joined with Houston pollen in
asking those Rice students In pos-
session of these pens to turn them
in to Mr. MeCants, Rice bursar. Re-
imbursement Is guaranteed.
Views of World War History
Must Be Changed Says Prof.
Washington, Feb. 20.-—American
colleges are faced with the manifest
duty of completely revising their
courses in World War hlBtory in the
light of recent researches which have
altered the prevailing views on the
causes of that conflict, in the opinion
of Prof, Lowell J. R Ragatz of George
Washington University.
He has outlined revised course In
modern history that will startle stu-
dents accustomed to early post-war
accounts of war gq|lt. Ragats will
teach his course this semester.
Modern historian*, Ragats said,
have shifted blame for the World
War from the shoulders of the late
Kaiser, who did his utmost to stop
hostilities, to Count Berchtold, Aus-
trian foreign minister.
watkin lectures
on architecture
Architecture Expresses Spirit
of Age Says Learned
Speaker
Mr. William Ward Watkin delivered
the first ot his three extension lec-
tures on modern architecture Sunday
afternoon in the Physics Ampithe-
ntre. I'nder subject of "The Search
for a Direct Manner of Expression In
Design." Mr. Watkin traced thy de-
velopment of the new architecture
which, he said, has kept a parallel
relationship to the literary and ar-
tistic tendencies ot the period.
With the starting point of scien-
tific knowledge, modern architecture 1
has developed into u glorification of
scientific achievement. It respects
change rather than tradition, and Mr.
Watkin enumerated the chief Influ- j
ences of this great change—structural j
materials, especially steel and con- ;
crete; the world war, which destroyed
the idea of conservatism and gave
full power to the radicals, the tuod-
erns: the Sutherland and Goodhue 1
j who became the leaders of the new
1 movement.
Modern architecture, according to :
j Mr, Watkin, Is as yet the product of
the minority. It is progressive work
1 open to suggestion. With the quality j
of stimulating the imagination.
NfWjl Sunday Mr. Watkln's address
will hi** on "1'he New Manner in
France and Northern Europe," to be J
followed the succeeding week with |
"The Advent of the New Manner in
America."
Illinois Dean Explains
Many Textbook Sales
SAN MARCOS. Feb. 10.--Do col-
lege students sell their textbooks?
This timely question concerning an
unfort unnte custom which seizes
many undergraduates in January and
June. Thomas Arkle Clark, dean of
men of the I'nivcrsity of Illinois,
gives two reasons for these seasonal
outbreaks, first, the student's indif-
ference or lack of Interest in his
work, and second, his need to get. out
of a financial difficulty. Dean Clark's
further statements that "a college stu- j
deht is alwgys broke" and "anything '
that will Immediately add to his bank
account seems to him justifiable" will
not be challenged.
But. Immediate cash Is not always
forthcoming from the sale of text-
books, and the sunie obtained are neg-
ligible in comparison with the value
of the books. The rush to dispose of
textbooks at less than their real value
is swelled by the thought that now,
examinations being over, those old
books will never bp needed again!
Perhaps they'll not be needed for
classroom work; but how often grad-
uates moan that they wish they had
kept their textbooks, to brush Up an
a language, to find a certain formula,
to locate that line of poetry! The
reasons for missing books hastily dis-
posed of are many, but the regret is
recurrent that the books are gone,
with alt the precious notes that added
value to them, at least In sentiment.
Better Work Attributed To
Greater Interest
In Studies
Although no accurate statistics were
obtainable as to the actual number
of victims to fall during the recent
siege of mid-term examination*, the
Thresher has found thai the number
Was about: the same as of other years
Although there was no change in
the percentage ol' Freshman "bus-
toes," a favorable improvement was
seen in the number of Freshman ath-
letes who succeeded in standing the
gaff. The percentage of failures In
the newly organized depart incut of
physical education, which at the pres-
ent has only Freshman athletes on-
tolled, was low. In fact, the num-
ber of failures was lower than that
of the Freshman class in general. This
is explained by the fact that the stu
dents enrolled in this branch are en-
gaged In work that Is more suited to
their temperament and in which they
are more interested.
Those students who went on pro-
bation because of their work during
the first semester must remove their
disability on the next general exam-
ination or they wil he dropped from
the rolls of the school.
Each of the students dropped at
this time for deficiency in scholar-
ship are, In most. part, eligible for
readmitance to the Institute. But
each case is considered individually.
If the past work of the individual is
so low as to give evidence that the
person is not capable of doing univer-
sity work, readmlttancc is denied But
if the character of the previous work
Is such that shows thai all hope should
not. be abandoned, the person will be
readmitted, provided that the Imstee

lege in the interm.

The usual dormitory tactics of rush-
ing the nominations to a close and
splitting thevvote^ar$ said to ha'Ve
been used.
