Dallas...
Everyone and their dog went to Dallas, Texas for the Rice vs.
S. M. U. game and numerous other activities this past week-end. Al-
though the game was a focal point of interest, it did not furnish the
only source of amusement for imaginative Riceites in a strange city
and the exciting game which finished with Rice on the bottom
half of the score did not appreciably dampen that good old party, let's
live it up spirit.
It seems that Ellen Elizardi and fiancee, Mike Kelly, flew up to Dal-
las on Friday evening in time to join the large crowds that journeyed
to Dallas on Friday. Friday night Rice invaded the SKY CLUB to
hear the famed "Cell Block Seven" and had a rip-roarin' time The
freshman football win over S. M. U. was attended by Pinky Nisbet,
Harris Moore and Robert Harrison Saturday morn saw Owls taking
in the Texas State Fair which offered exhibits aplenty to satisfy any
curiosity. The afternoon was occupied by a party at the apartment of
ex-Riceites Betty and Wayne Bennett there partaking of the con-
vivial atmosphere were Lynn Koehler and Hubie Raw lings, Mary Brown
and George Staten, Jack Hackney and Jean Youngblood, et al. Also
Saturday afternoon Judy Fuller and Betty Anne Balfour entertained a
large crowd of Rice people .... including Paul Cochran Bill Hanley and
Sander Frindel.... From the party at the Bennett's, a chartered bus
look the crowd to the pep rally held in front of the Hall of State,
thence to the game after some lingering at the State Fair by George
Zenner, Steve Simms, Selby Sullivan, and Bryan Stone.... After the
tame dancing in the Century Room at the Adolphus Hotel were Mary
Coy and Ross Rhump, Elsa Holland and Billy Ed, Thad Putnam, Chip
Woods .... Lobbying were Page Rogers, Jay Reviere, and John Hudson.

Margie Jarboe, Freddie Fredricks, Joyce Gibson.
