Thresher statements. Due to technical problems, the photographs of
one pair were unusable, so in the interests of fairness, all have been
omitted.

Over the past two seasons, could do.
Sammy the Owl has had a
disgraceful reputation. He has
been publicly drunken and unruly
towards law enforcement officers, 1
has incessantly provoked opposing
players and the referees, has
disrespectfully treated the
performances of such fine
organizations as the Texas A&M
Corpse of Cadets and the
Showcase Bland of the Southwest
Conference, and has gone as far as
to simulate perverse sexual ' C

leaders. We have every intention of
upholding this carefully
maintained representation of Rice
as a whole! If you make us the Big
Blue bird for the '84-'85 season, we
promise to give a Big Blue Bird to
each and every one of the
opposition. Thank you!

David Hudson

Sammy before. (A few basketball
games and a parade last year) We

tradition of past Sammys. We will
make sure that Sammy is a big part
