It's a rare bird indeed who doesn't
care for the good taste of Coke!
In fact, you might even call him an
odd ball. After all, 58 million times
a day, somebody, somewhere, enjoys
Coca-Cola. All these people
just can't be wrong!

Back From Whirl
On Tulane Campus
The Rice Student Center Com-
mittee unexpectedly held the
balance of power at the opening
business session of the Region
IX Association of College Unions
Convention which was held on
the campus of Tulane University,
December 2 and 3.
FIRST ON THE AGENDA
was the selection of next year's
convention site. Several schools
were bidding for the opportunity
to host the 200-plus delegates,
representatives of two dozen
schools. Prominent among the
contenders were the University
of Oklahoma and the University
of Texas.
Rice was the last delegation
to be called to vote as the ballot-
ing deadlocked between O. U. and
T. U. After some deliberation,
Rice cast its vote for Texas,
thus calling attention to our
school's initial participation in
this organization.
THE CONVENTION itself
was a two-day whirl of lectures
and seminars concerning prob-
lems common to any student
center, with the theme of the
five-state meet, The Image of The
Union.
Members of the Rice delega-
tion attended sessions concern-
ing such topics as: Stimulation
of Interest in Special Center Pro-
grams, Films and Forums, and
Piblicity and Public Relations.
THE COMMITTEE feels that
through the inter-school contacts
made and the opportunity pro-
vided to compare Center pro-
gramming it will be possible to
make better future use of the
facilities of the Rice student cen-
ter.
GREEGAH!
