SAMMIE O'KELLEY QUEEN OF
THE GAY AND GROTESQUE
Archi-Arts 1958 is over but will remain in memory as one of
the most beautifully decorated and financially successful in the
history of the jpageant.
Sammie O'Kelley reigned as queen of "Incubus" in a costume
representing sorrow and designed by George Clower.
First prize for original student costumes went to David Thor-
man and Del Ashman dressed aa a giant eye. Second prize cos-
tume was worn by Doug Roberts, while the shotgun wedding party
designs of Bob Bowlin, LaJuana Osborn, Fred Henry, Jane Benke,
Dick Audrain, and Carol Lane merited third place.
An unusual patron bid came from Rice graduate, Mr. C. E.
Stousland, Chairman of Architecture at the University of Miami
in Ohio, who donated six original silk screen prints.
Proceeds of the dance will go toward the W. Ward Watkins
Traveling Fellowship presented to a graduate architect at the end
of the school year.
Several' good social functions
are coming up in the next coupie
of weeks. Among them is a Weiss
College Dance open free to every-
one (in couples) after the Bas-
ketball game Saturday night.
The Sophomores all school dance
is the following weekend at the
Houston Executive Club. Every-
one, but everyone, is invited!

Shapiro, Frank Dent, Don Bell,
Mike Bennett, Pete Huff, Sandy

man and George Clark.
Charity Drive Is
Seeking Needy
Plans are now underway for
the annual all-school charity
drive. Ben Orman is investigat-
ing a great number of charities
as possible recipients of the
drive's proceeds.
The Student Council will make
the final choice when Orman
presents his recommendations and
the drive will get under way soon
after, under the sponsorship of
the senior class.
One Drive
The one annual charity drive
was established to take the place
of the innumerable and ceaseless
small drives which used to inun-
date the campus. As a result, the
total collected has usually been
large and each many, many
jharities apply to receive ti:-=
proceeds.
Scholarship
Anyone who wants to suggest
some worthy cause should con-
tact Ben Orman immediately.

SOME FACTS ABOUT IBM
The growth of the company has been spectacular
since its inception in 1914. This has been espe-
cially true in recent years, as business, industry,
science and government have turned increasingly
to automation through electronic computers.
Such growth naturally provides many oppor-
tunities for advancement to well-qualified college
graduates. IBM company pokcies and practices
lay a firm groundwork for rewarding, enjoyable
and secure careers.
At IBM, for example, individual merit is
quickly recognized by increased responsibility
and remuneration. Through "small-team" proj-
ect systems . . . cordial employee-management
relations . . . excellent financial rewards . .. out-
standing company-paid benefits ... the potential
exists for well-established careers. IBM-sponsored
educational and training programs are among the
most advanced in the American business
world today.
IBM laboratories and manufacturing facilities
are located in Endicott, Kingston, Owego, Pough-
keepsie, Yorktown, N. Y.; San Jose, Calif.;
Lexington, Ky.; and Rochester, Minn. Sales and
service offices in 198 principal cities throughout
the United States.
