Conference
A ruling of the Southwest confer-
ence faculty committee on Athletics
last Saturday will give another yoar
of eligibility to two Rice football
players who thought they had com-
pleted their eligibility this past sea-
son.
The two affected by the new ruling
are Gordon Nicholson Jr. and Qulnn
Connelley. Nicholson is a fullback,
while Connelley plays one of the half
back positions, Both are expected to
. return next year for another year of
| the gridiron sport.
The faculty committee voted to dis-
(count past participation of a football
|player as a member of a Class B team.
'In the future the committee ruled.
I such part icipation will count as var-
|i4ty competition if the game partici-

The SiiitihVM ciinferWH-c Molt
ence ruling in another manner, did
not consider participation against an
inferior school by class B teams as
counting against the player's eligibU
Thus the University of Texas, Texas
A and M. college and other confer-
ence schools have allowed a player
who participated only in class B,
games during his sophomore year an-
other year of eligibility and conse-
quently have played such men four
years instead of only three as Rice
authorities were in the habit of do-
ing.
The new ruling in this sense may
be considered as favorable to Rice in
that it clears up the situation and puts
the Owls on a footing equal with the
other schools.
Nicholson's only service as ft sophp-
more on the 1930 team was in a game
between the Class B Rice team and
the Texas A. and I team here. Had
it not been for the new ruling last
Saturday the game with Texas A. and
l„ the only team he played against,
would have cost Nicholson a year of
eligibility. '
Connelley ta his sophomore year in
1980 played in a iinnie between tht-
Class B team and the soldier's team
in piiivestbij. Under th'tf new ruling
gimuvf of this; latter typ? will not
count against eligibility.
Nicholson has not said definitely vet
whether lie will return to school
other out now, he will probably be a
great help to the team. He has quite
a bit of blocking ability and blocking
ability will be much in demand next
year.
The University of Texas also has
stveral men who will gain another
year of eligibility by the ruling.

Intramurals
nmmarized
The department of Physical Educa-
tion has jusrt completed one of it's
most ambitious programs of sports
ever to be undertaken. The groups
participating in the activities were di-
vided into two groups: The first is
the Varsity teams both regular and
Freshmen that engage in intercolle-
giate competition; the other division
are those that participate in intra-
mural activities.
The intercollegiate a nil freshmen
athletic contests and the number of
participant* are as follows:
' ' Men
and Pre-Laws. (2) Physical Training
sections with an enrollment of 192
men. (3) Classes — Seniors, Juniors,
Sophomores, Freshmen. (4) Organi-
sations — Band and Rally club. (5)
Individual—all campus.
The total number of tournaments
held during the last year numbered
nineteen. The total number of entries
in these tournaments were 618. The
grand total of contests, games, and
events in the Tournaments numbered
216<
The following is a list of the Tour-
naments held and the winner in each,

Besides the organized activities

estimated number of men using the
facilities at the Field house daily is
350.
According to Mr. Hermance, in-
structor, many other activities are be-
ing planned for next year in every
field of competitive sports.
The average mind can get nowhere
except by marching, can go no further
than its own position in the parade, and
is incapable of getting out of step.—
