HOUSTON, TEXAS. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1931
no. 3
Ri ce Featured
In September
Houston Issue
Physics Building, Cloister Arc i
Shown on Cover — Mechanical!
Laboratory ou Inside Page
The Rice Institute is featured highly
in the September issue of Houston,
a magazine dealing with activities in
Texas' largest city.
The cover, done in dark blue, shows
the Physics building through a cloister
of the Administration building. "Rice
Institute's vistas are nationally fa-
mous," says the cover.
An article, "Athletics Bind Houston
Interest to Rice," is illustrated with
a picture of the Rice stadium, showing
the football field and the Field house.
The article quotes Dr. Gaylord John-
son uts saying: "We are looking forward
to an increasing measure of support
from business men of Houston." There
has been a noticeable growth of inter-
est on the part of Houston's business,
men in Rice affairs, and the athletic
committee of the chamber of commerce
is doing everything in its power to
maintain and promote this interest, the
magazine says.
The third of a series of articles writ-
ten and illustrated by Houston adver-
tising agencies is a two-page ad of the
Rice Institute, by J. B. Wilkinson, with
art work by E. M. Schiwetz. AT draw-
ing of the Mechanical laboratory with
the Campanile illuminated at night is
featured, and a picture of Dr. Edgar
Odell Lovett is shown.
The write-up of the ad says: Rice's
scholastic standing rests on a founda-
tion of sound scholarship. They (Rice
graduates) are equipped to face life, to
grapple with it, to lead their way.
Accomplishments of Rice graduates
are pointed to with pride. The physi-
cal plant at Rice has been built ac-
cording to a carefully conceived, homo-
geneous architectural plan.
But, the ad goes on to say, student
life is'marked by a fresh originality-
athletics, clubs, dramatics* dances—all
have their place in Rice life.
Hiiliard Leader of
Annual Pep Parade
Led by Fay Hiiliard, former Rice
track star, several hundred Rice fresh-
men last Friday night raced through
downtown Houston in the annual slime
parade.
The parade was largely u pep dem-
onstration for the Sam Houston foot-
ball game Saturday. At the Rice hotel,
Yell Leaders Wiley George, Harry
Tunstall, and Alvin Moody led the
freshmen and a large upperclassman
turnout through some snappy yells
and singing of the new fight song.
George stressed the wonderful spirit
shown by freshmen so far this year.
Freshmen were clad in various re-
galia for the occasion. Every conceiv-
able' costume from bathing suits to
tuxedos was in evidence, with the
former being more in favor.
Rice's Owl band led the parade down
Main street.
Two National Societies Will
Convene in Houston This Year
At least two meetings of national
engineering societies are to be held in
Houston this year. The American In-
stitute of Mining and Metallurgical
Engineers will meet October 2 and 3,
and their local representative has sent
a hearty invitation to Rico students to
attend the sessions. A trip will be
made to Sugarland oil field and Boling
Dome sulphur field.
Another convention will be that of
the National Association of Practical
Refrigerating Engineers, which meets
November 10 to 13.
Five on Dance Committee
As Released by President
Barton of Student Council
The following men will com-
pose the dance committee re-
sponsible for official Rice Insti-
tute Saturday night dances, held
at Houston club, 910 Main street:
Packard Barton, chairman; El-
bert Turner, president of the
senior class of '32, Waller Judd,
councilman - at - largo; A. W.

| First individual pictures for (he 1932
Campanile were taken Thursday, Qe-

i William H. Pluth, editor-in-chief.
An unusually large number of stu- [
dents visited the improvised studio be- i
j tween 9 and 12. R. M. Luster of Ruu-
| lande studios is in charge of the work. •
Pictures will be taken until Novem-
i ber 1. One month allows ample time
! lor all students to gel ,satisfactory
( pictuves. According to Plath, the chief j
i advantage of students having their
pictures taken al once is that more
attention will be given the individual
than will be possible at a later date.
Prices are $2 for the first cut and 25
cents for each additional picture to
appear in the book. The price of an '
additional eut of a different pose is 50
cents.
