To 'l^cc ihQueteen Tzventy-Three
JOL'R YEARS AGO — hdw long the\- seemed in prospect, hnw brief they are in retrospect! — we had great pleasure, at the autumn assembly ot 1919, in receiving you as students of Rice. 1 oday, on the occasion ot our eighth annual Commencement, your commencement, we have equal priiic in recognizing you as graduates of' Rice. .As a class, you are sitting together for the last time. When you rise from this meeting you break physical rank, but the spiritual bond that binds you to us, and Rice to you, is a bomi that can never he broken. .And the consciousness of this inalterable fact is to those of us who remain behind the most precious of spiritual possessions.
To my mind it is singularly appropriate that the last words you carry away with you in imperishable memory from this temple of truth, of whose invisible spirit you yourselves are the visible presence, should have fallen from the lips yesterday of a professor of philosophy, preaching a religion of hope, and have been borne on the voice of today of a professor of science, pro- claiming consonant obiectives for faith in human progress. And I pray that the liberating influences of philosophy and of science and of religion may attend you always on all your ways of service to state, or church, or university, on which we now confidently send you forth under the Homeric rubric of Rice:
To win renown; To sta)id the first in worth as in command: To add new Jionors to your native land: Before your exes your mi^lity sires to place, And emulate the glories of our race.

In a supplement to the Rice Institute Pamphlet of 1919 appeared the following tribute to Rice men who dieii during, the War:
"And there are those m shmmg armor; Marshall, student ot Science, first Rice Master of Arts; and Cain, Bachelor of Arts, seeking a scholar's career; and then- comrades ot our burning cross, who, before winning academic spurs, rushed in and won their stars of gold; Aycock, pioneer student soldier of the training corps; and Coates, sharp-shooting gunner in the Argonne; and Hiiies, striving to go over seas only to be lost at sea; and Patterson, swift to his duty, faithful to trust; and Stell, sure of toot and fleet of spirit, gone west in the sky; and Lillard, lithe, alert, agile ot mind; and Killough, courtly knight ot friendly mein and fearless cour- age; ami Manaker, genial, ioy of his fellows, flown home from the clouds; and Reynolds, loyal, self- reliant son of the plains; and McGuire, mirthful and earnest, cheerfully serving his turn; and Rudil, star on the field, fallen in flight as falling star flashes; and Wood, wide awake, sunny, steadily gaining his way; and South, singing the songs of the sea, and of them that go down to the sea in ships; and Haltom, light hearted, handsome, and hale, passed on the wings as the eagle passes."
To the memory of those men of Rice anil to the memory of all Rice men and women who have walkei.1 where Rice men and women walk now, but have passed on, who had a share in the launching of the university, who belonged as a part to it, who devoted their time to the works of Rice, who made bits of history at Rice — to those men and women whom the Almighty has willed shall not witness the glory of their university as it passes on majestically accomplishing its purpose in measured stride, to them let this space in the tenth anniversary record ot the students be devoted.

William ^Carsh ^Ki£e
William Marsh Rice was born in Massachusetts in iSi6; while still a young man, he came to Texas to make his fortune; he made it; he died at the hands ot his valet in 1900. As the years pass on, people try to put into the character ot this man something ot romantic idealism, something ot sentimental phi- lanthropism, something ot mystic humanism; the image ot what he might have been displaces the memory ot what he was.
Endowed with New England shrewdness, thrifty, t'arsighted, astute, determined, quick to see and to seize opportunities, he was the highest type ot the pre-war business man, the embodi- ment of the wholly American spirit of expansion which, at the end of the nineteenth century, was developing the resources, building the cities, populating the then barren acres of the Middle West. It in lite he was an idealist, he was an idealist of the present, skillfully dealing with the tangible, material facts of his day; it he was a philanthropist, he was a philan- thropist tor the sake ot the material betterment ot his citv and its people as a whole; if he was a humanist, he was a humanist strong in the belief that the highest joy, the highest worth, and the highest destiny of man lie in material accomplishment, in material creation. And he himself was a creator, a creator of businesses, and cities, and fortunes, a creator of a university, the greatest, in things that matter, between the Mississippi River and the Rocky Mountains, and through this university, a creator, we hope, of men and women. He was a creator in lite, a creator in death, a creator after death.
His character lacked nothing: it was complete. Calmly, wisely, greatly, he planned, worked, and achieved. His was the doctrine ot creation, ot accomplishment; and with this tact in mind, the greatest praise that we can give him (how much, by the way, would such a man value our praise?) is that he fought a good fight and kept faith with himstlf.

The '^fc Institute Qoat of zAnns
\\ c lia\t hetn going to Cdlltge here all these years (or all this year, as the case may he), ain.1 yet most ot us probably have not the tamtest idea as to how the well-known coat ot arms of the Rice Institute came into existence. Accordingly, It ma\' be well, since on anniversaries we are supposed to recall to memory the things of the past, to recall this anniversary year the origin of the Rice Institute shield.
This heraldic de\ice was tiesigneii by Mr. Pierre de Chaignon la Rose, ot Cambridge, Massachusetts, who produced it by an ingenious combination of the main elements of the arms ot the several families bearing the names of Rice or Houston, for at the time of the foundation of the university, the city of Houston ani.1 the Rice Institute expected alwa\s to act m a mutually beneficial close co-operation with each other. The shields of some ten Rice armorial bearings were all divideil by a chevron, and all carried three charges, these charges being either crows or ravens. There were about a half-dozen Houstons who bore arms, and curiously enough these arms were again always ilivided by chevrons, ami again bore three birds as charges — this time martlets, it was decidetl, then, to employ a double chevron for the Rice Institute shield, and since neither crow nor raven nor the martlet had any historical academic standing, the owls of Athena were chosen tor charges, and in the remarkable form in which the\' appeared on a small silver coin of the nmldle of the ht'th centur\- before Christ. .Adtl to this shieKl the ribbon bearing the words, "Letters, Science, Art," stamling for the things to the atlvancement ot which the founder dedicated this university, anil you have the coat of arms of the Rice Institute.

Besides Dr. Lovett, there arc now at the Institute seven members ot the tacult\' who came here ten \ cars ago when the Rice Institute ccmsisted, so tar as material things are concerned, ot three Innidings sitiiateil by the siile ot a iiuKidy roatl tar out on the praine south ot Houston. These men are Messrs. A.xson, Daniell, Evans, Guerard, McCants, Watkin, and Wilson. As we, the students ot Rice Institute, uiulerstand the matter, these men, in the beginning, entered their protessions anil later came to the Rice Institute because the\ realized that there arc things in lite beyond fortune hunting, iiecause the\' possessed a love ot learning tor its own sake, because the\' hoped in universities to be able to add their part to the store ot human knowleiigc and wisdom, and hnally, because they believed that there is in the world no greater work than that ot helping to bring about the intellectual and cultural, and therefore, the spiritual aiul moral betterment ot the human race.
Hiese men were all young men when the\' came here; some ot them are now old. All ot them ha\'e spent the best part ot their lives in service to humanity in general, and to us students ot Rice in particular. We who have been here only a year cm- so know them at least by tradition, and admire them; we who have been here several years know them personalK', and re\'ere them. As their students, we respect them; as men and women, we honor them; and (trusting that we take no undue liberties) as their tnends we wish them long lite, continued service at the Institute, and as great success in their high calling in the future as they have had in the past.

Ten Tears at ^^KJce

Rice is conscious of, and feels, the beginning of a new era. The President's Matriculation address at the beginning of the year sounded a new note, and the Thanksgiving Day celebrations were imbued with an exhuberant anci en- lightened spirit. It marked the turning into a new way.
The President spoke of the new I'niversit)-. He explained that universities are not built, but grow steadily under nurturing hands. He told of the beginning of Rice, but he diti not say that twelve years ago this campus was a swamp and that it was in hip boots that he first inspected it; that the trustees of the will and fortune of the founder spent many long months studying and examining .American educators before choosing a president, and that an equally long time was devoted to finding the master architect who was to create the beautiful buildings of Rice; and that he has spent many long hours in thought and delibera- tion before he finally assembled that splendid group of men wIki have filled the chairs of the departments of study and research.
He has told us of the courage anil determinatK.in that backed the deliberate moves of the trustees and officials; how they have been faced by bitter oppo- sition in numerous instances from the very first; how the firm decision came that only the interest from the total endowment was to be used; that the annual income today is three times as much as was the original endowment made by Mr. Rice in 1891; how the I niversity was to be established anil maintained on the highest academic standards, and how the beginning was to be made in the field of Science — although full attention would, in time, be paid the fields of Letters and .Art.
In preparing the site it was necessary to lay under the front campus a dozen miles of drainage and to construct nearly a mile of concrete underground tunnels connecting all "t the buildings for carrying all forms of power from the central plant, and to build several miles of drives and walks. During this preparation, grountl for the first buildings, the .Administration Building of the .Academic Court, was broken in 1910. On March 2, 191 1, the seventy-fifth anniversary of Texas Independence, the trustees set the corner stone of this building. The construction of the first wing of the engineering quadrangle and of two units of the Power Plant group was shortly under way, and a little later, the contract was let for the construction (it the Kast Wing aiui Commons of the First Resi- dential group. The South Wing of the Second Residential Group, better known as West Hall, or Bellaire, was the last dormitory built. The I'ield House was the last builiiing completed.
The spirit of Rice is to be found on the cornerstone of the first group of buildings — namely, the spirit of Science in the inscription, "'Rather,' said Democritus, 'would I discover the cause of one fact than become King of the Persians'," carved in Greek on the cornerstone of the Administration Building. Its spirit of student comradeship is in the dedication "To the freedom of sound learning and the fellowship of Youth" inscribed on that of South Hall, its first Residential College.
The first freshman class to assemble in September, 1912, numbered fifty-nine, the total number of matriculants reachina; seventv-seven for the vear. Half

of them were dropped at the end ot the first term fur faikire to maintain the high standards set for the work.
These pioneer students undertook at once the organization ot their under- graduate Hte for self-government which had been placed in their hands. The first of these organizations was the Honor Council for the conduct of their own discipline and e.xaminations; a Y. M. C. A., a Y. W. C. .A., a literary society for women and two for the men, and athletic teams, which will he considered more in detail later.
In October of 1912 a notable assemblage of American and foreign representa- tives and delegates gathered in Houston to assist in the launching of the new university. The events of these days have been included in the Books of the Opening, a work of some eleven hundred pages subsec]uently issued in three volumes, which can be found in the Library.
A more recent Academic festival was arranged m honor of a week's visit to the Rice Institute by the British pAfucational Mission to the Universities of the United States. Rice was the only uni\ersit>' west of the Mississippi at which the Mission stopped and it was mentioned by them as one of the three outstand- ing universities of the United States. This visit was followed a little later by a similar visit to Rice by the French Mission to the Universities of the United States.
Rice's Decennial was celebrated at the Thanksgi\'ing Festival. (Jn this occa- sion John Grier Hibben, President of Princetr>n University' delivered an address at the City .Auditorium, Thanksgiving morning, in commemoration of the com- pletion of ten years of Academic work.
So much for getting the university started. These pioneers seemed to have their hands too full with getting organized and hanging on to do much else, and it was not until 1916, four years after the opening, that a major outside activity other than athletics was attempted. This took the form of a newspaper and the second term of that year saw the beginning of the Thresher. It was started as a purely commercial proposition, but later dropped. After a little urging on the part of the Office, it was taken up as a student activity and made its first appearance on January k, 1916. It continued as a bi-weekly until June, 1918.
In September, 191S, the United States Government took charge of things and while the memorable S. A. T. C. was in the field, the Thresher was discon- tinued. In January, 1919, it was resumed and has appeared each week until the present time.
The originators expressed a wish that the Thresher be a newspaper and not a magazine. For some reason that wish has been realized. The Thresher is still a newspaper — but one marvels upon that thought. 1 es, the Thresher deserves credit. It has had its battles against sentiment, provincialism, religion, business managers, and story writers, and it has won out. Let it be praised!
At the end of the same year appeared the first Campanile. How that name came to be chosen was explained as follows:
"Everv one will concede that towering above every other feature of this institute's existence isits sublime architecture;every one will concede this, whether he is able to appreciate it or not, because he has it on highest authority. And granting this, no one will doubt that the most towering and sublimest feature of

this same architecture is that etheral smokestack which a saill\" utiHtarian age has draped in the classic halnhments ot a graceful and vet chastlv modeled Romanesc]ue Beltr\-. This is the Campanile. Campanile! Linger on its accent! All other considerations aside, would not the sheer music of it justify its choice, the haunting niehuh" of syllabification? And this we have fittinglv chosen as the sxiiiKol ot the spn-it embodied in this \-olunie; dominance, high aspirations clothed ui e.\c]uisite art and beauty ot design and execution. Could there be a nobler ideal than the heights of the slender Campanile? All posterity should be grateful to us for the heritage of this name. We feel that we are dowering the long line of our successors with a wealth ot beaut\' ami noble ideals."
Posterity has been pleased with the name, and unless lightening strikes the ethereal smoke stack harder than it has heretofore, the name will probably be retained tor good.
This book was in the form limited to yearbooks, and covered the high spots in the preceding years as well as ot the current one. The first Ht)rrorscope appeared in 1917, and had tour subjects.
^^ e have often remarked on the annual urge the Seniors seem to teel to blossom (Hit in the spring anel be not as other men. This instinct is as old as the practice of ha\'ing Seniors, for with the first class of Seniors came e\'idences ot It in the spring ot 19 16.
The first Junior Prom was heki in the Commons on .April 27, 1916. It was an elaborate aftair, and was a worthy forerininer ot the Proms which have followed. It is rumored that this one started the ancient practice ot incurring a huge debt with every Prom which was onK' tliscontmued in ['jll.
January l~, 191 7, saw the inception of a change ot tar reaching consequences, for m that \ear was Main Boulevard opened with great pomp and ceremony, gix'ing us otu' present roostmg place of evenings, instead of the ilirt or mud — according to the weather — roaiJ which had been there, aiul making an inroad into the revenues of Stone and Webster.
In March, 1 ';!<;, were the first rumblings ot a Press Club heard which finalK' reached a culnunation in the blowout at the College Inn ot the present year.
There must have been anothc-r E. O. .Arnold at the Institute this year, t(.ir there was quite a tuss about a Publicit\' Committee. The Thresher of .April 3, 1919, stated in quite large type: "Publicity Committee Created By Student Council," and, among other things, went on to say that "In no sense is this to be a board ot censorship. It will mereK' eiuleavor to see that such happenings as may be of general interest reach the public without being previously distorted and enlarged upon by those fiction writers ot the daily newspapers commonly called reporters." (.)uite in keeping with old tradition in such matters, nothing more was done.
The old order changeth. In ,\Iay, 1919, after years ot griping, literally anil figuratively, perhaps, over mess hall conditions, Mr. Berauci was given the management of the Mess Hall, and from the tone of the acclamations with which he was received, one woulil think he was the messenger of Providence — and he undoubtetlly was.
The Co-op opened its doors in September, 1919, and proceeded to pa\' oft its debts. It turned its profits over to the Campanile, which was in a bad hole, at the end of the year, and has been cooperative in name only, ever since.

Athletics have always occupied a high place at Rice, and they were recognized as a part of the university at the very start. In lg]2, when it opened, P. H. Arlnickle was brought troni Southwestern I'niversity as Athletic Director and Coach. This same year saw the first football team. In the annals ot Rice football there are many iiright pages, tew regrets, and all worth remembering. Rice teams ha\'e won a large maj(.irity ot the games plaxetl, and from the xerv beginning, ha\"e been conten- ders with the strongest teams ot this section. Twice have the Owls almost been football champions, losing by one game in I916 and m 191", when signals were stolen in the middle of a season m which the\' were sweeping all before them.
The worst football defeat suffered by a Rice team, was at the hands of Te.xas l'ni\-ersit\", when they Ifist 50 to o in 191 5. Their most overwhelming victor\' was in 1916, when the\' swamped S. M. L'. 14,] to ,"{. Rice has never lost at Southwestern, oldest regular foe, nor to S. M. L'. Rice beat Baylor in the first game they played, ami have split the other four. \. & M. has been defeated twice in succession, m "is and m '16, and stood to a get a third trouncing m 'i", but for the stolen signals. One game was a tie in \<)l\. Texas has been beaten onK" once, in 1917 when the ()wls won 1 ; to o on Clarke Field.
Baseball was the ne.xt sport adopted, and except for one year, has never been \ery successful. In 191" there might have been a championship, but the war broke things up, leaving Rice second, with an axerage of .61 s.
Track followed m 1914, and has always been good. The Owls have failed to place in the Conference meets but once and ha\'e won the T. I. .A. .A. three times.
Basketball was the last maior sport to get under way. It began in 19K with a iump, for Rice took second in the T. I. A. .A. the first >ear. This was before the organization of the S. \V. I. C. The\' lost the championship to Texas by one point in 1916, and in 191S, after a poor start, came out on top as Con- ference champions.

Football
Football started in I'^I2, when P. \\. Arlnickle came from Southwestern and was put in charge of Rice athletics. The entire male student body at this time was not as large as the squad he had coached at Southwestern, and he did not have enough men out to permit regular scrimmage. Of course, this freshman team, called the "Greys" at that time, did not attempt a very heavy schedule. They took on three prep schools and two colleges. They won prep games, but lost to the colleges, (iames were with Houston High, Orange Hit;h, Sam Houston Normal, ami Austin College.
In 191,) halt ot the previous eleven returned, of w hich onK' one was a backtield man. Arbuckle made a light, fast team which scored Si points to their opponents' 14, and tied for third place in the T. I. A. A., just behiml A. iN: M. and Texas. ()ne feature of the \ear was the (.iefeat ot Southwestern, Arbuckle's old team, ^3 to 14 — the only game in which the Owls were scored on.
The 1914 season was a continual struggle with injuries — not the only such occasion we can remember — and there was not one time during the whole season that the team was free from a long hospital list. Several games were played in which the entire backfield were on the side lines and backs were lirafted from line material. In spite of this the\ had a good season, finishing third in the
r. I. \. .A., as they had done in the year before, but with a much heavier schetiule, playing Baylor, A. & M. and Te.xas for the first time. They defeated Baylor
14 to 13, but lost to A. & M. 13 to ", and to Texas 41 to o.
191 ^ was the first year in which Rice had four classes to pick athletes from, but since six lettermen were lost and there was a small freshman sc]uad, prospects were not so promising as they should have been. They swamped Trinity in the first game, but lost to Baylor in the second, largely through overconfidence and the absence of two stars. In the Texas game they suffered the worst beating any Rice team has had. However, there is an interesting sidelight on this. In the second quarter the timekeeper — a Texas man — got excited and let it run twenty-five minutes. In this period Texas made 41 points. Meanwhile, three of Rice's best men were waiting on the side lines, but could not get in until the end of the quarter. The Owls put up strong opposition in other parts of the game.
T. C. V . was setting things afire this year. They looked like world beaters and felt it. They even went so far as to have a bonfire in Ft. Worth before they left for Houston in celebration. Rice completely outclassed 'em — 33 to 3.
The Owls ruined .\. &: M. as champions this year. They were out-weighed sixteen pounds per man, but made a touchdown in the first seven minutes without letting go of the ball. They were forced to play defensive in the second quarter, but would have run up a larger score in the others had not a finicky referee penalized them for a total of 1S5 yards.

L. S. U. brought thirty men to Houston, against which Rice had thirteen men available. They needed all of them, however, for they put in twenty-two of them trying to hold the Owls, in spite of their atlvantage of fifteen pounds per man and twenty pounds in the line. Rice gained three times as much ground as they did.
Injuries and illness were too much tor the Owls in the Xotre Dame game which ended the season, for although they held them to 14 to 2 in the first half, the game ended fifty-five to two.
1916 was a still better season. There were eiuht men back from the '15 team and a squad of thirtv-five. E.xcept tor the mistake of taking on the hardest game of the year first, there should ha\e been a championship. This was lost to Texas, 16 to 2. Everybody got a chance at .Austin College m the next one, and old scores were settletl tor the defeat of igi2 — 40 to o.
T. C. I', turned the tables. This \car :;'<• had the swelled heads and got bumped. The result was a seven to seven tie when we should have had an easy win.
The Owls took a rest at Clear Lake before meeting the Farmers who came down lusting for blood after their 19K licking. No such luck, for we licked 'em again, 20 to o.
Tulane proved to be heavv in the head as well as in the line, and got beat 23 to 3; and everybody but the yell leaders got in the S. M. I', game. The regulars made it 16 to 3 in the first quarter, the subs made it 00 to 3 in the next two, and the regulars went back 111 to make ^3 more m the last. Total 143 to 3.
Tulane laiil out three Owl backs before the second quarter had hardly started in their game, but the Owls made it a seven to seven tie. Turkey Day meant 47 to 20 over .Arizona.
1917 should ha\e been the best year in football since the beginning, as it was in the other sports. It wcmld have been, but for an unpleasant incident. Rice had an easy time with T. C. I'., and walked over Austin College, 53 to o. Texas never knew what hit 'em, for the Owls chopped the Longhorns down 13 to o at .Austin. The Haskell Indians proved interesting, 55 to 13. Things were going sjreat. Then came the break. .Southwestern stole Rice's signals and plays, and by the end of the week they were the common property of every team in the state. Rice beat Southwestern 34 to 13 in spite of the fact that they knew as soon as the Owls ilid where the play was going and whom to tackle. I ulane was defeated, but the team was pretty much used up.
With one week until the A. & M. game, which was to decide the championship, the Owls went to Clear Lake to rest up and to revise their strategy, but there was not time. The new plays and signals were as much of a mystery to them as they were to the I^'armers, once the game started. The>- held on by sheer nerve, losing 10 to o. It was good Ine championship.
Everyone of course, looked forward to great things in 1918, but such could not be. The .Armv took all the old men; coach .Arbuckle was in service, and it

was necessary to get a new head coach. The sijuad was 90 per cent green, and with the mud and the flu, it made little headway. Anyway, the schedule blew up after two games because ot the war. The Owls lost to Texas 14 to o, and defeated S. NT V., !_> to o. A bad year all around.
igi9 marked the recovery from the effects of the war. With tlte return of about eighteen old letter men, and with the coach back from the army, things began to hum. The Owls romped through nine games with but one defeat, makmg 189 points against their opponents' ;o.
Trinity was easily disposed of in a drizzling rain, and the Bears were defeated by one touchdown in the first three minutes of play in their own den. South- western received their usual drublung in a sensational game, and the Owls rolled up a 54 to o score on .Austin College, who was touted to beat them. The one defeat was at the hands of the Longhorns, who sprung a surprise in the use of the onside kick as a scoring device. It was a sad day. After a bad start, S. M. I', was defeated 21 to 14.
Much was e.xpected from the Sevvanee Tigers, but Rice took the game 19 to 7, and the Tiger was skinned and his skin stretched in the Mess Hall. The Howard Payne game was pretty rough going, with the Owls maintaining a one touchdown lead with some difficult)', until the Howard Payne coach wa.xed indignant at one of the referee's decisions, anil took his team from the field, giving the game to the Owls, i to o. The x-Vrkansas game wound up the season with a nice score, 40 to 7.
The season of 1920 began with very rosy prospects of a championship team, but they were not realized. However, it was a pretty good season, with two defeats in eight games and 9"; points against 28 for the opponents.
The schedule opened with a hard game. Baxlor was touted as Conference contenders, anel probalily were if the Owls were not consiilereii. .After a scoreless first halt. Rice walked all over them. Tulane was rightly feared, tor they were not defeated this \ear. The Owls prijved almost equal to the occasion, for the game ended o to o. The Southwestern Pirates were forced to haul down the Jolly Roger to the tune of 19 to o.
There was even mone\' on the Texas game, but the Tonghorns outclassed the Owls by 21 points. S. M. U. was not difficult, but the Owls got a little more than they could handle at College Station, for the Aggies beat them 7 to o. The season endeil with a scoreless tie against the .Arkansas Razorbacks, who made c^uite an improvement over their showing of the year before.
1921 was disappointing. We thought we had a team, and we did have the outward appearance of one, but the spirit diti not seem to be there. Something went wrong. Most ot the games were lost, tor which there seemed no excuse. The one bright spot was the .A. & M. game, which resulted in a 7 to " tie, although the Farmers were outplaced.

Baseball
The first hasehall team was (jrgani/ed in I'yi,; with a fair sized squad. There were no college games, but the Owls did take on some ot the best semi-pro teams of Houston and several prep schools. They won three ot the games played.
The 1914 baseball team continued the pace set by the football team of this year. .A good collegiate schedule was arranged, and si.xteen games m all were played, eleven ot them at home cjt which oidy two were lost. The\' beat the Houston Burts, then Texas League champions, and A. &: M., Colorado L'., Baylor, Southwestern, I,. .S. I'., Trinit\' and Daniel Baker among the colleges.
In 1915 there was a decidei.1 slump. Out of the t\\ent\-fi\ e games played, only seven were won; and only five of the eighteen college games. This is ex- plained by the lack nt material, tor at times the squad was as small as fourteen men. There was gooci pitching, but no support, and the team was erratic. A good schedule was arranged, but it was disastrous.
1916 was also a bad season. The team was slow in getting m shape. It was a weak traveling club, losing all of its games on the road. Of the games played on the home ilianioiul, there was an c\'en break.
1917 was the best season Rice had seen in Baseball. Twentv-tour games were scheduled, but the war broke it up after tweUe games were played, with Rice second in standing and a percentage of .b\^. There might have been a championship this year, for the team was doing much better in the last games than in the first.
1918 and 1919 were very bad years. 1918 was mostly played without a coach, and was therefore, not brilliant. The Owls won six and lost six. There is nothing on record in the Campanile of the 1919 baseball squad, and \-ery little in the Threshers of that year.
1920 was nothing to brag about, but it did mark an improvement over the two preceding years, and seemed to hold forth promise of recover)-. Only two games won are recorded, Austin College and Texas. The chief fault was lack of pitching strength. On the whole, however, e\'ervbody tried.
The 1921 season was another step forward. .Although most of the squad of this year were new, and untried, they worked hard and kept hustling. They managed to win three games, incidently keeping .A. & M. frfim winning the championship.

Track
Track was adopted in Ivi4- Ahout a liozen men who had done track work m high school turned out. Onh' three meets were arranged — one at the Dalhis Corn Exposition, a dual meet with Ba\ lor, and the T. I. A. A. at Waco. .■\t the Corn E.xposition meet, the Owls tied with Baylor tor fourth place, and in the Baylor meet, beat the Bears S4 to 3S. They were fourth in the T. I. A. A.
Because ot lack of material, there were no ilual meets in 101 ^. The first meet ot the \ear was a triangular meet with Rice, .A. & M., and Texas at College Station, the T. I. .A. .A., ami the first big meet ot the new Southwestern Confer- ence at -Austin. Nine men entereti the triangular meet and made 14 'j points. The Owls took a close third in the T. I. A. .A., setting a new recorii in the mile. They were fourth in the Southwestern Conference meet, breaking the State and Southern high iump records.
In igi6 Rice came third in a triangular meet with Texas and .A. \' M., lost to L. S. L'., 79"2 to 4~'2- They set a new high iump record this year in the T. I. .A. A., but were able to do nothing m the Conference.
1917 was the best season up to that time. Hinkley as a freshman set anew state broatl jump recorci m the triangular meet m which Rice finished second, just behinci Texas. They won the T. L A. A., taking eleven first places. The war stoppetl things here.
There was onl\- one meet in T'>iS, the Southwestern Conference at Stillwater. Heavy rains made it necessary to move from the athletic field to the university campus, which sloweti things down considerably. Rice entered three men in this meet, all ot whom matie good.
Featuring but tew meets, the 1919 season was favorable to the Owls. It started oft with an interclass meet, slimes against upper classmen, in which some new stars were discovereil. Baylor was casiK' taken in b\' a 67 '2 to 49 ' 2 score. They took fourth place m the conference.
1920 was satisfactory. There was lots of material and some real stars. The tact that two sure point winners were out kept them from winning Conference championship. The Owls lost to Bavlor in the first meet ot the season, but beat

c.\\vr.-\:NiLE
the Longhorns a week later. They overwhehned S. M. U., but lost to A. & M. by a close score. They won the T. I. .A. A. hands down. A new sort of track event was introduced at .Austin when a set ot relav races were held in which the Owls were a close second to Baylor. They took third in the Conference, the relay deciding the meet between Rice, Baylor, Te.xas, and A. & M.
In 1921 the Owls attempted more than ever betore in track work. Despite a series of defeats at the hands of Te.xas, A. & M., and L. S. I ., they made a good finish, winning the T. I. A. A., and coming second in the Conference. They beat Baylor and S. M. U. without much trouble.
They went far afield this year, sending a team to New Orleans for the Southern Amateur Athletic Union meet. Three men took second place with twenty-six points.
Lindsey was sent to Chicago, but he was only able to place in the shot put. He fell at the start ot the hundred, and was unable to place although he was pushing his nearest man for it.
He also went to Danville, III., to the annual meet of individual stars. Here he took four firsts. .All other colleges of the Lhiited States were represented.

Basketball was the last of sports to be ofHcialU' adopted at Rice. It started off in 1915 with a squad of twelve men, and won eight of nine games, taking second in the T. I. .A. .A. The Owls beat Baylor twice. Southwestern twice, split a two game series with A. & M., but lost to Texas. A pretty good first season.
Things looked dark in 1916, for some of the first year's stars did not return and football injuries kept others out. The new system ot coaching introduced at this time didn't brighten the outlook. Of the more important games, they doubled the Baylor score in two rough games; took two from Tulane; lost two to A. & M. The championship this year was in doubt, with three remaining games determining factors — two with A. & M., and one with Texas. The Owls defeated the Farmers rather easily, but lost to Texas by one point, when the
CA/MP.\NILE
^^M
Longhorns threw a foul with but twenty seconds to play. Worn out, they lost two to L. S. v., but won two from Tulane.
Three letter men from the previous year, scrubs, anti freshmen composed the squad from which the 1917 team was to be drawn which won eleven of fifteen games played. They beat Southwestern three times, Daniel Baker was easv in two, and v. C. L'. wasn't much better. They split tour games with A. & M. and did the same with Texas, losing the first largely because a great man\ Rice men were put out ot the game.
In 1918, the year we won the championship, the team got off to a poor start. They seemed to lack the punch. After losses to Te.xas, a new coach took charge, and beginning with fundamentals, built up a new team. The Owls had won two from Southwestern, split two with A. & M., antl lost two to Texas. Then came the reorganization. They overwhelmed Baylor and S. M. L'., swamped Te.xas, and beat A. & M., winning the conference championship.
As in every other branch, the war was hard on basketball. There was only one veteran and a small squad ot green horns tor the 1919 squad. As the season progressed, three more men returned from the service to help out, but little could be done. It was a very poor season.
The 1920 season started out with good prospects, but they didn't last. The captain and star forward was laid out by probation; the other star forward got married, and so quit. Two star guards were forced to the sidelines by injuries — leaving the necessity of building up a new team. This was done, but it was only able to win half of its games.
Basketball was only middlin' in 1921, although the team started oft well enough. They seemed to lack the stamina to last out the games. In very nearly every contest the Owls would get away to a fine start, be unbeatable, only to piddle out in the second halt. Sickness and injuries also took their toll. They were able to win six out of fifteen games.
1922 was a series of disheartening defeats. The team started out with en- thusiasm, but went on the rocks. While nearly all the games played were lost, the team put up plenty of competition in all, ami it was lack of proficiency rather than lack ot spirit that was disastrous.

Did \<)ii ever hear of Sainni\ r He is no more. He died to vindieate the honor ot infant Rice. In his three short weeks of' hfe he made some history, glorious at the time, interesting now. He caused a memorable trip to the Texas Agricultural and Mechanical College, and several da>s of privations of an un- pleasant sort to some seventeen stuilents in 1917.

The Oil-/ 'T'roft'ctive ^Associiition
Sammy was a huge stufted Owl constructed In' Architecture stutlents and exteriorly decorateci by John Clark Tidden. He served as a mascot at basketball games and because ot the loss ot a game with A. & M. in 'i", and a subsec]uent dance at some other place, Samni\' was mistreatetl to the extent ot being lett alone at the Auditorium, whence all but he had fled. Hilarious A. & M. students later told the watchman they were Rice men, and in ten minutes Sammy was on the sleeper heaiieii for College Stati(.)n.
C'^:^\PANILt
On the night ot January ig, at I :,^o, an organization known as the Owl Protective Association with thirteen charter members, arrived at College Station. Two of them, dressed in khaki, assumed authority as bull sergeants for the whole A. & M. college that night, inspected some tour hundred rooms, and returned to Rice with the others, dismayed at having been unable to locate the bird.
.At noon, on Tuesday, January j;o, the O. P. .A. received a wire from an ap- parent cub reporter at A. & M. saying, "Sammy is fairly well and would like to see his parents at eleven tonight." Seventeen 'Daddies,' two Fords, and a Hudson Supersi-x answered the wire. The door to the U. S. .Armory at ,A. & M. had to be broken down while the watchman below was kept in conversation. One worthy football star splattered himself all o\'er that door and the floor beneath. Through combined efforts, the door went tlown, antl Sanimv, the precious, was rushed to the waiting cars just as the whole Cadet Corps was awakened bv the shooting of the Watchman's .44 and the subsequent hullaballoo.
Well on their way home, the O. P. A. noticed the H. cV T. C. Limited which overtook them, loaded with khaki clad bo\s. The part\' turned back for a few miles, then turneil into a lane that leil into the tall grass that was to be their inhospitable home tor the succeeding day and night. Twelve hundred cadets scoured the land. Thirteen O. P. A.'s were captured — the tour remaining had the Owl. The last resort was the burning ot his insides just as a company of Cadets charged the four men, and the concealing ot his hide under their clothing. While the Cadets busied themselves trying to get a souvenir of the supposedly burning bird, the fugitives made their escape up a gully. Two halves of Sammy 's hide were wrapped around the bodies of two ot the men who had orders to take him home. Early Thursday morning they reached Rice.
It used to be the custom ot Rice students to attenti ever\' Tuesday matinee at the Maiestic when it was playing vaudeville at its old stand where the Palace is now. The management woukl never seat them in a body because ot war- time e.xperience. In tqiS, when the Class of '22 were slimes, the Sophs ribbed up one of the funny boys on the bill to wear a slime cap during his act and to give the slime salute when they calleii tor it. An S. -A. T. C. captain, an upiper- classman, put the slimes next to this plotting, and at the appointed time, very nearly the whole of the male contingent ot slimes were on hand — with nicely softened lemons cut in halt. Well, the victim came out to do his stuff as per agreement, but was met with a storm of lemons. He beat a hasty and strategic retreat, antl although he heaped calumny upon the heads ot the slimes, he would not come out. This, of course, broke up the show, as well as the practice of attending matinees for a time. The slimes congregated on the corner and dared the sophs to come and fight.

I^fe at U\n'
Rice has an enviable war record. Ninety per cent of the men students were in service, some of the women, and half ot the faculty. There are some brilliant passages ui this record, and none fur which we could be ashamed. Rice was representcil in all of the wartime activ'ities of the I'nited States, ami after the war, Rice was represented at the Conferences. Rice was m Belgium, m brance, and m Italy; Rice was in the training camps of .America.
\\ ar times were serious times at the Institute, and there was Httle colorful happening, except tor once. The army took over the aclministration of student activities, and strict military discipline took the place of the tree and easy times of democratic Rice. No more could the dorm ilweller lie abed until the last bell before breakfast and then dash down half clad. He had to be up before the sun and all spic and span. NO more trips to Blodgett <>r ti> Main Street Park across the way for the foaming tankard. He was in his quarters by nine. No more gladsome evenings in town at the shows, it was 'Hupl two-tree-fijre' on the drill held. Not e\en tiid the SalU'port resist the change, for the cn-eds hail to play like tlie\' were in the army too, and tnppeil nut with heavy khaki uniforms from chin to ground — almost — anii ariin brogans. Can \iiu blame 'em for being irked r Such a svidden change very naturally was batlK' received, and when an unpopular martinet took charge, things grew worse. Rex'eiUe was so early that setting up exercises were, at times, performed by moonlight — rather humorous now, but only too serious then. One Chem section was placed under arrest tor cutting a lab aiul was ke)it in close confinement for a week. They were marched to classes and meals under an armed guard and not permitted to leave their rooms without it.

A topsy-turvy state ot aftairs. It even snowccl that year. A change of spirit is reflected in the Threshers of the time. Articles formerly humorous took on a bitter tone. Cartoons became caricatures ot conditions. The Thresher was suppressed, and all other outside activities were abandoned. The outcome was a considerable rumpus — not the "open and premeditated rebellion" that one Houston paper saw, but still quite an outburst. A tire hose was turned in the Commandant's room, breaking out his windows; red flags appeared in dormitory windows; there was a ' tooti riot' in which dishes and tood sailed quite merrily tor a time. In tact, the walls ot the Mess Hall were so dented that it was easier to put in the oak panelling we now have than it was to repair them. The gooci old army beans, coftee, sow belly and hard tack didn't go well. Hell was a 'pop- ping tor fair.
-As a part ot this was the appearance ot Rice's first anonymous publication called Rcif Tnpc, published, as it said "m the hope ot calling interested attention to undesired conditions at Rice in order that wise judgment and devoted energy may be incited to bring about improvements that are promotive ot the weltare ot an institution that is capable of notable work in the 'advancement ot Letters, Science, anti .Art'." It made no bones ot lambasting the authorities, and aired things out quite thoroughly. There is no doubt that considerable energy was incited. As a result, a mass meeting was called in which the students and trustees met. F.vervone said what was on his minil, and all grievances were brought to light. The Trustees met the stutleiits more than halt way, and a new set ot regu- lations were drawn up. This was the actual beginning ot stuileiit self-government.

The Fireside of 'l^ce
Across from the third entrance to the campus is located a lunklmg whose architecture is in keeping with that nt the rest of the Institute and which we point out as the Autry House. We all make use of it, with httle thought to the part it plays in our college existence, and not every one knows ot its origin.
The Autr\- House represents the beginning ot a Community Center which, when completed, will have a Women's Dormitory, and a Church as well as the present students' union. It is at once a memorial to the late Judge James L. Autry ot Houston, and a students' general gathermg place.
The idea ot such a place was started in 1919, when Dr. Masterson and Mrs. Blake, under the auspices ot the F.piscopal Church, opened the Communitv House. Polly, famous scrambler ot eggs and Iniildcr ot chocolate pies, came with them, knowing the true way to convert heatheii. The house was a dark-green 'L' shaped building that had served as a Hostess House at Camp Togan, and it sutl^ered somewhat m transplantmg. One side housed the Cafeteria, the Canteen, and a rest room, sometimes devoted to club meetings or banquets, antl the other was a large room where Chapel was held on Sundays and dances on the other days. The floor was not ideal tor either purpose, tor it had some monstrous cracks — quite deadly to high heels and sinuous movements as to devout knees. The walls were not entirely tight, tor at times during the winter a hue breeze could be had in some ot the corners. It had a big iron stove, kept red hot in the winter time, where co-eds could toast their toes before labs and the eds gathered in the testne bull pen. In wet weather we had to reach the door bv nimbly leaping trom rock to rock after the fashion ot the mountain Goat, for there was a low place between it and Main Street, and the Hermann Park drive was not in good condition then. The roof leaked in one or two small spots, but we didn't care. Like all old and somewhat imperfect things, it was dear to our hearts in those days.
In 1 92 1 the new building was built, thanks to the zeal ot Dr. Masterson and the beneficence ot Mrs. Autr\', aiul the name was changed through usage, rather than by intention, to Autr\' House. \\ e ha\e better equipment here anil more lu.xurious furnishings, but even though there were no overstuffed chairs nor comfortable fireplaces in the old place, those ot us who knew it will always hold some affection for the old Communitv House.

If hv Institute'^
W I
This is a question that has been asked any number ot times, and when the Dean and the President were interviewed on the matter, gave the inter- viewer a rather fishy eye — as persons are wont to do with the constant repetition ot any one question.
It has alwa\ s been the aim ot our learned pile to maintain a standing not excelled by any other rniversits- in the United States, and to rival those of Europe. There are Institutes in America ami in foreign lands, that we can all call to mind, that are respected because of their learning. And on the other hand, e\ery little two-by-tour school toumled tor educational purposes, takes it upon itself to assume the title ot 'l mversity,' whether its curriculum or tacultv rates good prep school standing or not. So, since 'Institute' was somewhat out of the ordinary, and rather more dignified, and since 'University' is being more or less vulgarized, it was decided to call it 'Institute,' as more in keeping with future greatness.
This was all very well, and works out ailmirably. But there is another phase to be considered. While there are some educational foundations graced by the name of 'Institute,' there are also other organizations — but tor different purposes — so graced, viz., the Institute tor the Blind, or the Insane, or any other of the number of State institutions. Also the title ' Institute' has been used to designate the Summer normal courses that young High .School teachers atteiul, and at times in C(3nnection with instruction of an agricultural sort. These do not lend academic dignity to the term.
There have been some amusing incidents to happen because ot our name. During the early years a young Japanese came all the way from Tokio to register here tor the study of rice farming. It was a perfectly natural mistake. Wasn't Houston the center ot Texas' rice iiulustr\', whose tame had spread to the tar corners ot the earth? Wasn't an 'Institute' a place tor study, usually technical study? Ergo, why shouldn't the Rice Institute, being in Houston, be a place for the study ot rice culture? He sadly went elsewhere.
We don't vouch tor this, but we have it on good authority, that on one occasion a ladv on a street car passing the Institute turned to Dr. Evans and said, "Do \(iu know how many inmates there are m Rice Institute?"
Rice is now old enough ami has atlvanced enough not to be taken tor an\thlng other than what it is, and while we may sometimes refer to ourselves as inmates, outsiders now know better. We are sometimes torcei.1 to endure a certain amount of joshing because ot our name — but would we change it? Not while the Cam- panile proudly rears its sable plume above the gravel walks that give us our minc- ing gait!

'l^cc Songs
From the beginning nt time, as we at Rice look ar it, there has been a continual search tor a Rice song. There are songs sung by men in the Dormitories, as have been ever since colleges were begun, which ma\ be called Rice songs, as The Cognac FitsUicrs, and the Don't Se>id Mv Box lo Bavlor, introduced by the re- doubtable Cozy Glee Club m 'lo, but which could hardly be publicly presented as Rice songs. Ot course the hymns sung at Commencement are Rice songs, but there has never yet been a song which may be said truly to express the spirit and sentiment of Rice which has made a place for itself in the hearts ot Rice students. There have been main- songs composed to that end, and after stren- uous publicity and propaganda, have been sung tor a time. Last \ear we paid our respects to ff^henever You Go On The Gridiron. This year we thrilled to For Rice's Honor.
One ot the first songs ot which there is any record — and this one had the source from which the Rice song will spring — appeared m the Thresher ot November i, 1916, the outcome ot the two successive deteats the Owls had given the Farmers m 'i, and '1(1. It was sung to the tune ot There I! ere 'Three Groves^ better known, perhaps, as IVhen 'Johinix Coine.f Marching Ilonic.
'^JJ'e stole a goat from J. CiT ,1/. "lie licked 'em in a vealk. "//> made old Houston ring that night, "And how the toian did talk'. " And should you think that's all we'll do, 'A big surprise is ivaitiug for vou. "And the Olds flapped their wings and
cried: "I'Fhool ll'hool ll'hool"
"We'll tell you ichy we're hard to heat
"Our team has got the fight.
' ' The other teams all get cold feel
"fl'hen ' Tiny' comes in siglit.
"ll'e run the ends and huck the li?ie
" And ' Mick' Brown gets there
every lime "And the Owls flapped their -wings
and cried: "ll'hocA fl'horj'. tt'hoo'."
Somewhat later, at'ter the war was over, and the (dee Club was m its glory, another less hilarious song was sung. It had a dignified air, and there is no apparent reason why it was (.Iropped.
• Hail to the Blue, 'Hail to the Grex, 'Hail Alma Mater 'Forever and a dav:"
"High above all others, " So let our motto be " f'ielory Men of Rice,
" {softly) f'arsity'."

CA.MP.\XILE
The song reterretl to below, U'Innuvcr You Gn On The Gridiron, was sung to the tune ot M\ Bonnie Lies Over The Oeean and went as toUows:
'^Whenever you go on the gridiron, " To fight for the grey and the blue, '' JVheneoer you go on the gridiron, "-/ victory is waiting for you. "Rice, Rice, " Three cheers for t/ie team that's
our otvn, our own, "Dear old Rice, Rice, " Rahl rah\ for tlie team that's

"Remember wlien luck turns against you, " That all of the rooters are here, "Remember when luck turns against you. "ll'e're always as ready to cheer. "Rice, Rice, " Three cheers for the team that's
our own, our own, "Dear old Rice, Rice, Rahl rah', for the team that's
our own."
For Rice's Honor we all know, hut we venture to eive it:
For Rice's honor. Rice's glory,
JJ'e will fight on. Jl'e will be fighting
JFhen this day is gone. And when the daivn comes -we will
Still be fighting on. Rice For the Grey and the Blue.
We'll all be loyal, To Rice be true."

Out of the innumerable attempts, many of which were not so good, but all just as worthy, the songs given stand out as being the most successkil. May they be added to, but never forgotten.

The Spoils of JVar
The Bushman arranges the heads ot his adversaries about the exterior of his house; the Indian hung their scalps in his belt; the Greek and Roman brought them home as slaves together with their household goods; the college man takes spears and helmets from pageants and operas in which he supers. From the dawn ot time we have brought home boot\' with which to perpetuate our boasted exploits.
Athletics — symbolic warfare — involves symbolic spoil. In lieu ot the head or personal property ot his foe, the modern warrior comes home laden with medals and cups.
In the office ot the Dean — little seen perhaps because our eyes are usually downcast when summoned to visit him — is a large gilt ati'air, richly carved and colored, and containing brightly painted footballs, basketballs, and baseballs, and a few tarnished silver cups. It is the Rice Trophy Cabinet where we preserve, or are supposed to preserve, mementoes ot our exploits.
Following one ot the \'ictories ot the igi5 football team, a friend ot the Institute intimated that he would like to give an adequate and permanent Trophy Case to Rice. His offer was gladly accepted, and a cabinet was designed by Cram and Ferguson. The case arrived during the Christmas holidays of 1916, and although he had expressed the wish to remain anonymous, it developed that it was the gift of W. M. Rice, Jr., of the Board of Trustees. It is twelve feet long, tour feet deep, and twelve feet high. It is constructed of richly carved woods, executed in colored enamels on a dull gold surface in the spirit ot the Medieval handiwork. It represents one of the masterpieces ot modern hand carvings, and was done by W. V . Ross of Cambridge, Massachusetts, one ot the ablest wood carvers of his generation in America.
Up to the time ot the war, when all campus activities were disrupted, the football, or basketball, or baseball used in every game a Rice team won was painted with the colors of our victim and the score, dated, and placeci in the cabinet. Every college or universit\' m this part ot the countrv, and some further afield, is represented. Some of the colors are dimmed, some ot the balls have become partially deflated, but they remain in testimonv of our athletic prowess. There are tour cups in the cabinet, oxidized almost black. One, the gift of the first Basketball team; one, the Lechenger Trophy for Inter-Class champions; one, engraved with the seal ot Trinity L^niversitv, whose silver has been rubbed off in spots, and whose history is lost; and the last, a beautiful cup, nearly two feet high, massive, tarnished, with no mark on it, ami concerning which very little is known. The practice was not resumed, tor there is no date on any ot the balls later than 191 S.
So, we can answer those who, more burdened with zeal than information, bewail our lack of a trophy case. We have a Cabinet, as far out of the class ot the ordinary college trophy case as our buildings and campus are out of the class of the ordinary college, and ot which we can be as piroud as we are of our campus. We have let the memor)- ot former heroes die; we have let an admirable practice lapse. May we and our successors retiu'n to the pride of the Race of Rice that our predecessors held.

Historic Spots zAroioid the Qanipus
Dim liistdi-y explains much. For a lung timt \vc haii wondercii what it was that mam of the dancers and some of the tlances at the Autry House re- minded us (it, antl now we know. Cows! The atmosphere at those dances is redolent with the reminders ot cows; and no wonder. The place where the Autry House now stands was once occupieii hy an immense cow-barn. The spot where the Jo\' Spreaders Band and Arthur Field Heard now operate once re- sounded to the melodious lowing ot kme. The spot where now, when we ask for a malted milk, we are told that there is no milk, once knew shelt on shelf filled with huge pails of the foaming fluid. The spot where we now call for potatoes, beans, and a bun, was once the spot where great armtuls of fragrant hay were tossed out to eager cattle. But let us turn to more pleasant subjects.
Let us talk of eating. We had long known what the Messhall reminded us ot, and we are glad that history now contirms us in our opinion. The site of the Messhall was once the site ot a two acre hog-pen. Can any university boast of possessing a happier tradition? It is good to believe that before the day of the hog-pen, the spot was the favorite pasture ground of cattle, that before the cattle came, it was a place deiiicated by the Indians to special feast days, that before the Indians, it was the camping grounds ot cannibalistic Mound Builders, that before the Mound Builders, it was the favorite feeding swamp of the Mammoth — and so on, clear back to the beginning of things. .And it is good to think that now, in harmon\- with age-old tradition, it is, to all appearances, dedicated to voracity, gluttonx', and rapacity forever, and ever, and ever.

The z^Giy elections
Miss SalKport enjoyed unusual popularity on the morning of May I, 1922, when she witnessed the election of officers for the Student Association tor the vear 1922-2,^. Interest in the voting ran high, a heavier vote than usual being cast.
This election was one ot the most hotly contested in years and saw the operation ot a well organized and highly efficient steam roller. Not since the days ot Pap Jungman and Yam 'I'homas had so much politics Keen in evidence at one time, with the attentlant campaign posters, newspaper articles, wild talk, and hard teelings. It is to the credit of every one concerned that this was all laid by when the affair was over.
J. H. Hughes ot Sherman, was elected President ot the Association, with Miss Geane King ot Houston, Vice President, aiul Rankin Kennedy, of Saliinal, Treasurer. E. E. Dunlay was electetl Councilman-at-Large ot the Student Council. J. S. Hornbuckle, of Houston, Miss Tannic Lee Oliphint, of Houston, and H. E.

The ^Ca\i Fete
A bit of sunshine, atter a stretch of had weather which had caused its post- ponement twice before, called to the students ot the Rice Institute to forsake their studies and dance on the Campus m observance ot the age-old custom ot May Day. The stately trees and picturesque shrubs ot the lower campus formed an ideal setting for the celebration, which took place in the soft glow just pre- ceding twilight.
Silvery trumpets proclaimed the approach ot the Royal procession. His Majesty, the King, Mr. Ernest Robertson, entered alone and ascended the throne to greet his retinue. Dainty maids followed, curtsying low before taking their places around him. Stately Dukes and charming Duchesses were next announced, followed by the duninutive cushion and crown bearers.
Treading on scattered rose petals, Her Royal Highness, the Queen, Miss Ila Brown, approached the dais, to be crowned by her royal consort.
Group and individual dancing closed the festival, the second annual May Fete of the Rice Institute.

Sumewhar apprehensively — for the clouds that hid the sun threatened rain momentarily — the Class ot '22 gathered m the Academic Court to receive the re- ward tor the years they had spent at Rice. Years that were not unmixed with disappointment, for they covered the period when Rice was recovering from the effects of the War and the S. A. T. C, and new adjustments — always painful —were necessary.
So, as all graduating classes before them had been, and all that may come after them will be, this class ot '22 was moved In mixed emotions at its Commencement, regret that pleasant associa- tions must be ended, hope for the future it was entering u)ion.
The ^Baccalaureate Sermon
Led b\' Dr. I.oxett, Bishop Hum, and Dr. Wilson, the traditional Academic Procession matlc its accustomed way from the Physics Building to the Quadrangle to take its seat amidst the frieiuis that had assembled for the occasion.
I^islmp Quin, Bishop Coadjutor ot the P.piscopal Church for the Diocese of Texas, preached the Baccalaureate .Strrnion, taking as his subject The Choice of an Ideal.

Slime Night Shirt "Parade
Just as the Coinniencement exercises (jflicially entl the college year m the summer, so it cannot be said that Rice is actually open tor business again in the tall until atter the slime parade, with all the pomp and dignity appertaining to it.
Peacetul natives thronging the streets ot Houston received their official notice Saturday night, September 2^, that Rice had opened again. Acting betiire the slimes could realize the full meaning of the new 'no-hazing' rule, Soph President Jimmie Russell and his band ot trusties rounded up scantih' clad slimes and herded them through the downtown district. The bizarre outfits of the freshmen, thanks to the \arious operas, pageants, and such, that ha\e made Houston, attracted considerable attention. A snake dance was staged through the principal clothing stores and hostelries on Main street, ending in a mass formation in front ot the Rice Hotel, where all the Rice veils were given.
Qollege Night
Two huiulred or more ot the dormitory men gathered outside the Commons for the annual College Night, sponsored b\ the Rice Y. M. C. A. James H. Hughes, President ot the Student Association, opened the meeting with a speech welcoming the new men to the democratic fellowship ot Rice. Dean Caldwell offered greetings to the new men and to those returning tor further study, calling attention to the tact that this year there was a larger freshman class than ever before, and that more old stuilents had returned to continue their courses than in previous years. He stated the cartlinal principles ot the Rice creed ot Democra- cy, and explained the two new ones, by which Hazing and Social Clubs were eliminateil.
Buford Goodwin, president ot the Y. M. C. A. at Rice, briefly outlined the plans ot the 1' for the year and told ot its desires to serve the men in a helpful, wholesome way.
Yells leel by '"Big Alec" Alexander ended the affair, which carried convinc- ingly to many men the spirit ot Rice brotherhood.
Salesmanship Qliib J^iiuchcon
"Rice Da\ " was observed at the Salesmanship Cluh luncheon of October 13, when a closer kinship between Rice and the men and institutions of Houston was establishetl. Three speakers from Rice, M. N. Aitken, J. S. Hornbuckle, and A. B. Ellis, bearded the lion in his den, when they sold the Rice football team to the Salesmen. Their efforts must have been effective, for on the follow- ing Saturday there was a bunch of Salesman rooters at the Ba\ lor tjanie.
Selections by Rice's thirtv-piece Inuui, solos by Graves McGee and Bill Stewart, and harmony from the Maxman-White-Moore Harmony Hashers formed Rice's part of the program. Honcjrs of the day were divided with Carroll the Florist, who had three speakers telling why one should buy Carroll's flowers, and who delighted the assemblv bv presenting corsages to the ladies and bou- tonniers to the men. Decorations were Rice colors and Carroll flowers, with gray and blue pennants and pink and white blossoms everywhere.
Presiilent Lovett, Dean Caklwell, Registrar McCann, Bursar McCants, and about two hundred Rice eds anti co-eds made up the Institute's representation at this enjovable affair.
First r Stag "Party
Fun m profusion was supplietl bv the Y. M. C. A. m its smoker held tor all the men students m the Autry House on the spook-suggestmg night of October 30. The atmosphere of witches and bats was carried out by clever decorations and old-fashioned Hallowe'en stunts were per- formed. Huge baskets of popcorn and peanuts went the rounds and returned empty. Then apples were distributed each man getting his 'iust one.' Slimes zealously bobbed for apples in wash tubs and bit at apples dangling from the ceiling while upper classmen roared with mirth.
Smokes were passed and everyone fired up. Then the entertainment began. Werner Wilkins squeezed tunes out of his accordion. Judd Mortimer Lewis told funny stories and recited a few of his poems to everyone's delight. Ted Flaxman, Gordon White, and Tom Moore, on violin, guitar, and mandolin received tremendous applause, and so many encores were demanded that it was difficult to close.

r. JV. C- ^^. Vaudeville
Aiitr\' House was the scene ot nuich excitement and mystery on the night ot October 17. Plxcitement liecause a wonderful entertainment was in progress, mystery because the audience was limited to the feminine part ot Rice Institvite. A hill ot great variety and genius was presented to a most appreciative audience.
Rumors ot some ot the happenings indicate that much talent, hitherto undiscovered, was on display. The Rice Co-ed Moving Picture Company made its successful debut in Tolstoi's great masterpiece ot dramatic art The EaUad of the Bciiutioiis Hcpzihah luid Ihc f.iicklcss h'crd'nuDid. (Jreat monologuists and prima donnas thrilled and swayed their audience at will. A Gypsy troupe caught snatches ot blue sky and freedom and love, bringing them in and captivating the hearts of their hearers with their irresistable charms. But the sensation ot the evening came, we are told, when a group ot Rice's most ciangerous flappers in daring costume appeared on the stage in a jazzy revue ot song and dance.
The atfair was so successful that a special dispensation was granted by the Supreme Committee, permitting a second per- petration of the bill — slightly niodihed- to whicli the other halt ot the Institute was invited.

The Tluniksgiving T^iiuion
I'hc annual alumni reunion is getting to be a lug thing. ( )n Tlianksgixing morning of the good year 1922 a considerable mob of old Rice gratis stormed the I'niversity Club for the yearly business meeting of the Alumni Association. The black boys ot the club were forced to seek out every chair on the premises to seat the assemblage.
The gang was all there, it seemed, and the excited buzzings gave an unequi- vocal answer to that famous old ballad question regartiing Hades and care. Many of the girls already hail had a taste of the Thanksgiving fete, for the Elizabeth Baldwin and the Pallas Athene literar\- societies had iust finished their annual breakfast celebrations in the dining room of the club.
Presicient Albert Tomfohrde, '16, took his gavel in hand and the festivities began. .A brisk round rif parliamentary acrobatics was engaged in In a large portion of the conipan\' in settling a number of business details, such as our missionary work m CiaU'cston and other foreign parts. F-'rom Dallas and sundrv places were brought in new schemes tor furthering this missionar\' work in pulling the right kintl of students to Rice.
From Samuel (i. McCann, Secrctarv-Treastirer nt the .Association, came the astounding but welcome news that the organization was a soUent and going concern with a sizeable bank balance. Mr. McCann intimated in his Irish fashion that some good collecting of elues had been done. Mr. McCann does the collecting.
President Tomfohrtle announced the establishment ot an annual tlinner t<i be given members of Rice football teams at the close of each grid season by alumni members. The first was heki with great success at the close of the 1922 season.
Followed the election of officers for the year 1922-23. The results of the balloting were: I,. M. Kingslanti, president; Mary Clarke Wier Jarvis, vice- president; and Louise Beraud and K. H. McFarland, new members (it the execu- tive board. .Adjournment followeii, and the urads were off in a bunch on the ne.xt lap of the speeilx' round ot acti\it\ that filled the da\', this particular lap being the excellent lecture of President John Cjreer Hibhen of Princeton Univer- sity, given at the City Auditorium. Thence the individual members strayed from the herd to various parts of Houston on feeding expeditions. At three o'clock those who tiiti not die bra\'ely with forks in their hantis, congregateii at Rice Field where the lirowsiness of plethoric content was dispelleil by the thrills of a good football game, ot which a full account nia\' be read by turning to the athletic section ot this estimable journal.
The evening was taken up with a buffet supper m the Ciunmons, where President Hibben anci a few others proved their claims to fame by the shortness and succinctness ot their speeches. The day was topped off by the presentation at Autry House of two one-act plays by the Rice Dramatic Club, in which were seen several alumni, and a number of undergraduates. At the end of the per- formance hnal handshakings were done and an rcvoirs' i\\\ next year' were said before the various alumni took their homeward treks.

The Ozv/
An iiiipornmt addition to Rice campus activities was made with the inaugu- ration ot Rice's own comic matia/ine, T/ic Riie Owl. As was to he expected, the magazine, an outgrowth ot a hterary effort on the part of the stucients the year before, in its early intancv met no end ot criticism, luit its creators were not perturbed. Its tirst year has been graced with three issues. The first met with tond approval on all sides. It was said to be as good as the best of college humorous publications. The C/iroiiii'le wrote it up as the best in Texas (incidentally pointing out that it was the o?ily one in Texas). The second met dire criticism. Exuberant o\cr the success of the first issue, anci confident that the world was theirs, the creators overstepped the bounds of piety and scandalized the earth with their second. So scandalous was it that hitherto tlisreputable newspapers assumed roles as saviors of mankiiul and protectors ot public morals and vehemently denounced the youthful publishers. The third issue was more or less a combination of irresponsible humor ot a vindictive sort, apologies — after a fashion — together with a calm, subtle, though iletermined, tone of resigna- tion. It will trulv be a prize gem m an\ humor connoisseur's library. May the second decade obser\e the steady growth and prosperous development o( T/ieOwl.
The Second T Smoker
The Y. M. C .A. smoker fit January i6 focused on Fatty Heflin. Two Y speakers happened to know him, so when their turn came, they made the poor little fellow the butt tor all their tunny stories.
Besides, the two speakers — John Erhard, Field Secretary tor the Y. M. C. A. in Texas, and F. R. Elliott, Central Field Secretary ot the "\'. M. C. A. tor the Southwest — praised the work ot the Rice Institute branch and compared its activities with similar work in other universities. The speeches were both ot the short, snappy, and sweet variety, leaving the main part ot the program to the Rice Dramatic Club which presented the one act pla\', Piirlinii iiiiil PirfiUi, with John Clark Tuldeii, Rosalyn Zucht, ami D. T. McLaughlin.
Other bright lights ot the e\ening were H. B. Penix, Cap Cjoodwm, Arthur Heard, ami Jimnue Russell. This cpiartet superintended the distribution ot eats and smokes. Heard and Russell handled the peanut department, while the other two threw apples and supplied cigars and cigarettes.
The W hite-Moore-Flaxman trio ami Slime /ucht hantlled the musical part ot the evening. Yells and songs concluded the program.

When the niemhers ot the Ten Thirty Scramliled Eggs anil Coftee Ckih -enililed for their reguhir session at the Aiitry House Mondav mornint;, April second, they lound a full fledged dance and celebration going on.
It turned out, that owing to the efforts ot certain ot the indefatigable Engi- neers, the conspiracy between the Trustees and Faculty of the Rice Institute and the Church I'athers, who hatl drawn up the calendar, to do Rice students out of their traditional holiday, was thwarteil.
Since Easter Suiulay and the First (jf April happened to coincide this vear, it was long thought that the old custom would have to be passed up, but Moiuiav morning saw the cavalcade of slimes armed with brooms, ot painful memory, closely guarding the gates and turning back all who attempted to storm them.
Only one grjt through, and that was through the introduction of ultra-modern practices of warfare. H. F. Ander, Bugs Assistant, climbed into the red tank he uses for an automobile, and plowed through the gate, guards anil all.
The -Press Quh
Years ago, when Rice was more in its infanc>-, a Press Club was talked of and steps were taken to organize. Nothing came of it. Towards the end of" this year, some of the hard-pressed E^ditors decided that Rice journalism needed some sort of organization for its development and betterment. To this end, it was decided to form a Press Club.
After two meetings at the Autry House, to which all men who were interested in any of the campus publications in any capacity were invited, a membership list was made up and a list of 'pledges,' who, after a certain pericni of appren- ticeship, would be admitted as members. Membership is limited to men. There is no intention of casting any reflecti(jn on Rice's women journalists, but it was thought that since the men lived tfigether, a more flexible and active club could be had if it was limited to men. It is pnnianlv a work organization with its chief object the improvement ot Rice journalism, but it was realized that a spirit of fraternity could best be fostered b\- occasional shindigs, so the organization is not intended to be wholly devoid ot sociability in its activities. The one consideration for membership is the abilit\' of a man to write well and consistently. If he can ilo this, the fact that he is a rara tivls will not keep him out of the Press Club.
The organization got a real send off when the first annual banc]uet and organization meeting was held at the College Inn.

rile first iifficial F.ngineer's Day was cele- brated April 27, 192J!. For two weeks pub- licity men had cluttered bulletin boards in all buildings on the campus with notices, announcements, anil programs tor this unusual day. A number of rash promises as to what it would bring forth were scattered broadcast — most of which were actually carried out.
The general color scheme adopted by the committee in charge was red, so on the iiKjrning of the twenty-seventh red — much red — and the firing of rusty horse pistols told
i'^^-^^^^^m the world that the big day had begun. Red L i*£" \ ^PjH^H^H tin cans — although irreverent Academs had
l^^jgg^^ J^K^^^^^^I another appellation — hung from the windows ■||^^B|^& l^^^^^^^^H "^ ^1" rooms that were occupieci by Engineers; ^^^HH^^k ^^^^^^^^^k red triangles and T-squares were hung from
trees, doorways, and gates, all of which pro- claimed that the engineer, true to his training and tradition, had slept his allotteci three hours and was ready at the break of day. Never betcjrc had the place been graced with such an assortment ot striking costumes. The neophytes were clad in accordance with their own ideas of freakish outfits. Each of these displayed a noticeable liking tor red. At the end of a ten toot rope one ot these marvels had a somewhat bedraggled cur, whose ciejection was, no doubt, increased by the sight ot others ot his tribe, in the shape ot frank- furters, being led along the gravel walks by other Bull Fighters and Wild Men.
In the evening, assisted by the Physics Department, the Engineers gave an Engineering Show as part ot the entertainment ot the High School students who were guests ot Rice during the Interscholastic Track Meet.
"As a fitting clima.x to a year filled with \aned activities, the annual Banquet ot the Rice Engineering Society stands pre-eminent" — according to John Winston, toastmaster. Autry House was converted into a shining banquet hall. A large table, in the torm ot a three sideci scjuare with the open end towanis the stage, was covered with snowy linen and gleaming silver, and decorated with huge baskets ot flowers. Place cards ot gray with blue borders markeil places tor eighty-five guests.
Mr. John M. Winston, the toastmaster tor the evening, occupied the mitldle seat at the head of the table. At his right sat Mr. H. K. Humphrey, head of the Electrical Department, at his lett, Mr. J. H. Pound, head ot the Mechanical ]3epartment. 'J'he President of the Society, Mr. Ford Rogers, E. E., and the Vice President, Mr. Bill Alexander, M. E., occupied seats on each siiie ot this trio.
Promptly at ten o'clock the doors were opened and the guests were permitted to roam about and locate their places. At ten fifteen a group ot five dusky waiters, resplendent in Burkhart's best white jackets, served truit cocktail, and the banquet ceased to be a futurity and became a reality. Four courses were served, and with the arrival of cigars, the toastmaster arose and called for (jrder.

The tij.istmastei' matle the opening aiklress, and was followed by Mr. Hum- phrey, who regaled the guests with a number ot stories that aided materially in hvening things up. Mr. J. S. Waters was then called upon to relate the story of Sammy and the A. & M. expedition. Mr. Waters afterwards said that he felt perfectly at ease during this recital, because everywhere he looked he saw his pet students sitting quite still, smoking, and it seemed just like one of his lab sections. The only thing that was missing was "Toots," the unofficial mascot of the E. E. Department.
Mr. Luecke was the ne.xt speaker, anil he outliiicel a plan to raise the money to endow an Engineer's Scholarship, but due to the fact that the induction coil did not work just right, no one could be induced to rise when he asked for con- tributions.
Mr. Rogers was the last speaker on the program. He exhorted the under- graduate men to take up the work of the Society next year with a resolve to carry on, and to realize to the fullest the advantages and opportunities which the Society offers to its members.
The guests at the banquet included the Engineering faculty, the Engineering Alumni, and members of the Engineering Society.
Mr. T. E. Luecke had charge of the arrangements for the banquet.
Owed to the E'?igiuccr
The sun rost.- up at the break o\ day
As he had risen tor many years;
And from their bunks at the sound ot the u;ong
Up rose the Engineers.
They rose to work; and the poor Academs Turned over tor a beauty nap, As off to that darned 8:30 chiss The Engineers went with a snap.
They had had two hours ot sleep that night And sure were feeling fine, Till Humphrey read them the riot act And warned 'em to get in line.
They were wasting too much time, he said, And just to make life worth while, He gave them a few' trick problems to solve That would make old Steinmetz smile.
Mr. Pound said that he didn't know, But it seemed fair enough to assume That a little pop quiz would be just the thing To drive away the gloom.
And so he popped; and the class poppeil too, But in a ditferent way;
For "Just as I thought," and "I told you so" Was all that they could say.
Now Engineers have hairy ears. And some say they don't wear breeches; But Hartsook and Ryon take great delight In leaving the boys in the switches.
The eleven thirty class was math, And someone opened one e\e Just long enough to hear Ford say "Integrate from zero to Pi."
"Oh what is so fair as a day in June," Cried the gang in a chorus song, As off to the afternoon lab they went Id work tdl the supper gong.
Waters and RatTerty anil Brandenberg Were parked around to see That the boys turned out a fair day's work In each laboratory.
Andrews, rushing dowm the field.
Breathed like an overheated steed.
The rod-man felt his fiery breath
And heard him gasping, "Speed, more speed'
And in the dorms, on cushioned sears. The Academs, fat and pale. Sipped at their icy lemonade And argued on the loss ot mail.
Our stalwart crew came in that night And bowed their heads and all did pray; And sweeth' in a chorus sang, "Another blue card earned this day."

When you come to read m the Sports Section — it you haven't done so already — the review of the year in sports by Andy ot the Post, and the basketball review by Ed Rider of the Press, you will see that the thing which most impressed outsiders in connection with the athletics was the spirit and the fight shown by the teams. This has not been Hmited to the teams, though, but the same spirit and tight has permeated the whole works. The football team was not daunted by a handicap of twenty or thirt\' poumls, neither were the rooters daunted b\' a handicap of thousands in yelling. The three hundred that went to College Station to see the football game raised plenty racket. The thirt\' or forty that made the trip to A. & M. to see the basketball game couldn't be drowned out by the whole Kaydet corps. When a pep paratle was called, every person susceptible to the classification of Rice Student who was not crippled or an invalid turned out, and all Houston within hearing distance came to look on — which means from miles around — and everything stopped until they were through. Whenever a pep meeting was called, enough were always able to endure the pangs of hunger to fill the .Amphitheater to overflowing — especially it it meant getting out of class fifteen minutes earlier — and with the band going and the hollering, enough enthusiasm would be generated to put 'most anything across.
All in all, Dale Shepherd is to be commended on the success which crowned his first essay at Yell Leading. He filled the shoes of the redoubtable Short)'

Each spring Rice sciuls tiKigcs to the High School and District meets. Rice's athletic field is open at all times to the schools ot Houston. ( )nce a year a Track Meet is held that brings High School men from all parts ot the South to compete tor the cups anci medals provided. Rice help.^ High School athletics as much as it is possible tor a university to help. Rice influence and Rice traditions ot sportsmanship are being more directU telt through the Rice athletes who go out to High Schools as coaches.
The first major High School athletic e\ent ot 1922-2;; was the toothall game between the Heights and Central High Schools ot Houston which decided the City championship. The game took on the aspect ot a regular college game, with rival pep parades which almost resulted in tree tor all tights, ami we looked on indulgently while they painted up our circle.
Before a crowd ot si.x thousand yelling rooters Central tieteated Heights 6 to o. .A ,?7-yard pass from McConnaghy to Hochuli about the mitidle ot the first quarter, followed by smashing line bucks, gave Central the only score of the game. Heights came near t<j a score in the fourth period. Weathertorii intercepted a Central pass anti made si.xty-two yards, "(irandpa' Woods, seeing the fleeting Heights man, started after him, and finally brought him down on Central's 13-yard line. It was the most sensational pla>' of the game. Heights failed to put it over, and the game ended with the ball in mid-field.

The Intersclwlcistic Track -JhCeet
The second Annual Interscholastic Track Meet got away to a bad start, but finished in grand style. After everything was in readiness, and even a few high school men had arriveii, the \Veather man slipped us a dirty deal, and the athletic field was covered with water the day before the show was to he. In an ironical vein, which we failed to appreciate, he set the sun to shining within two hours after things had been called off and the fielil was in good enough condition for the Owls to beat the Pirates.
Two weeks later, things were in gootl shape, and on Saturday afternoon, .April 2S, the meet was brought to a thrilling close, with .Allen .Academy of Bryan taking first place by the small margin of 2', points over Central High School ot Houston. Coach Arbuckle awarded them a large silver cup tor this. Central received a cup for second place, and Heights High received one for winning the Relay.
Thomas was the sensation ot the meet. 'I"his \'ersatile sprinter was indi\'idual high point man with l^ points, which, incidently, placed his school third in the meet. The 440 yard dash was one of the prettiest races of the day. Thomas sprinted to the lead from the crack of the gun, and holding a slight lead on the others on the back stretch, let himself out on the last cur\e, coining in smiling, good fitteen yards ahead ot Horton ot Cleburne ami HlakeK' ot Central, who tied for second place. Coles ot Central came from behind on the last cur\'e to take fourth place. Thomas also won first m the XSo yard run, ami took first in the hundred m 10: i .
Hotf'man ot Central was a close second in the race tor high point honors with a total ot 12 points. He won first in both the hurdle races, finished tourth in the broad jump, and tied with fix'c others tor second place in the high jump.
Cockerell of .Al\in was another beautiful sprinter in the meet. He was e.xpecteti to win the huiulred and the two twenty. He got away to a batl start, however, in the century, and placed second. In the two twenty he was easily the class of the field, winning in 22:4. He had run the same race in 22:0 flat in the prelims on the day previous. In the halt mile, Cockerell ran a very pretty race, pulling up from tenth to second place in the last hundred wards. He counted eleven points for his school.
Satterwhite of .Allen ,Acailem\' scored ten points by winning first in the shot put and in the discus.
The meet, on the whole, was one of the most e.xacting High School meets staged in Texas in many years. E.xceptional time was recorded in the majority of the events, and every record set in the first Interscholastic Meet was broken with the exception ot the discus.

The \Aiitry House
The Autry House has been called 'The Fireside ot Rice,' and it is all ot that. There is hardly a phase ot Rice activities that It does not touch. It we want to loaf, we go over to the Autry House, where there are lots ot comtortahle chairs, ami newspapers and magazines, and our wants in the line ot retrcsh- ment are taken care ot at the canteen. When we get tired ot the mess hall grvdi anti crave home cookmg, we go over to the Autry House and Polly fixes us up. It we want to have a banquet, and get something to eat with it, without having to hock the Old Lady's watch to do so, we go over and talk to Mrs. Blake. It we hold a meeting ot any sort, the .Autry House is the handiest place. It we give a dance or a play, we use the .Autry House. We can't seem to get along without it, but it it were not for Dr. IVIasterson and Mrs. Blake there wouldn't be an .Autry House.
Episcopal services are held there on Sundays by Dr. Master- son, but they are open to all Rice. Bible classes are conducted where real discussion is fostered, and words are not minced. It's mighty nice sometimes, to be able to talk things over with Dr. Masterson, for he does not hand out sugary pap that other men m his position sometimes do. He has put man\' stuileiits in the way ot getting jobs that have helped pa\ their waw
Something new was introduced this year with the inaugura- tion ot open house every Suntla\' e\'ening for Rice stutients. The girls were kind enough to proxide refreshments, usualh' there was a musical program, and we could all go over and have a fine time chattering with our friends. The .Autry House has thus become not only the 'Firesitie of Rice,' but the front parlor as well.

My Last Duchess, based on Browning's poem ot the same name, should be of especial interest to Rice students, tor it was written by Reginald N. Lawrence while an EiiL'lish instructor at Rice. He was one ot those instrumental in organ-

izmg the Dramatic Club in iq2l. The entire cast tt>r this phi\', whicli was directeci by John Clarke Tidcien, was well chosen, and each individual was excellent. Mrs. John C. Tidden was charming as the Duchess of Ferrara; the somewhat complex character ot the Duke of Ferrara was skilltully interpreted by Ernest Robertson; Fra Pandolph was played with great feeling by J. Tom Rather; and the portrayal of the page Renee, was delightfully done by George Red. The climax of this play was a fitting finale for the first bill of the season.
The repetition of these three plays on Thanksgiving night as the entertain- ment furnished the Rice Alumni Association tor their annual re-union, was an event worthy of note, for this marked the first official recognition ot the Dramatic Club as an important phase of Rice activities.

The J J inter Term Production
The second Dramatic Club bill was presented to crowded houses on the nights of February 7 and 8. The plays selected tor this production were of a decidedly varied character.
A comedy, The Pot Boiler^ proved an excellent curtain raiser. It was supposed to be the rehearsal of one of the plays from the pen of Mr. Sud, a successful play- wright— played with much gusto by W. M. l)arling. He graciously consents to have Mr. IVoiddIn — George Red — an aspiring young author, look on and learn the technique of play writing.
The cast showed excellent spirit. Guy Rail's Mr. Inkwell^ the villain, and Gertrude Kellogg's Miss Pencil, the vampire, were all that could be desired in the "deep dyed" line. Miss Ivory, the heroine, "always white and cool" was very well done by Bessie Smith. Mr. Ivory, the father, played by Franklyn Miller, and Mr. Rider, the hero, played with much dignity by Jack Glenn, contnbutetl much to the success of the comedy. The farce got over exceedingly well, andt its (.lirectors, Baldwin Maxwell and K. T. Rowe, are to be congratulated.

Lord Dunsany's fantasy, T/ie Triits of Ihe .irabs, under the direction of D. T. McLaughlin, lent a touch ot the bizarre to the program with its colorful costuming and pleasing setting. The play seemed a hit too much tor the princi- pals, handicapped as they were by limited facilities. The pompous Chamberlain, Harris Masterson, and H. B. Penix as a Notable, gave, perhaps, some ot the best bits ot the performance.
The third part ot the bill. The Dreaiuy Kid by F.ugene O'Neill, was one ot the high points ot the season's work, with Margaret Blackwell's portrayal ot the dying negro mammy the outstanding feature. She was in character through- out the play, the querulous tones ot the old negress heingdelivered most effectively.
Scarcely less credit should be given Ben Mitchell in his interpretation of the Dreii>ii}\ the young buck heKl at the bedside of his dxing mammy h\ the tear of a curse, in spite of the fact that the police are after him and the pleadings of his 'gal', Irene, that he save himself.
Eleanor Taylor was a convincing Ceely Anu, nurse of the nld woman, aiul Sybilmarie Denniston made an excellent Irene.
Credit is due John C. Tidden and Tom Rather tor their direction.

Spring Tciin ^T^roduction
The third term productum maintained the high standanl ot the previous productions. \\'orking up to a chmax in which every reason is given to beheve that a man-sized ghost with halt its head blown oft is about to walk on the stage through a prominently situated door, The Giant Slah\ a melodrama by Wilbur Daniel Steele, earned every morsel of the most generous praise ever accorded a Dramatic Club production. Finely drawn character acting and emotional work, perfectly synchronized off-stage mechanics in the way ot realistic wind storms and incessant telephone bells, and painstaking directing by Kenneth T. Rowe, contributed to its success. The cast composed ot Eleanor Taylor, Beatrice Harrison, ]<'red Sheltf>n, and E. M. Robertson scored individual triumphs.
For the humorous note of the evening, two short comedies were given. Fhese companion pieces, Calpuruia s Dinner Party and Lmnllns' Dinner Parly set forth the intimate lives of famous Romans — with all modern conveniences.

In the first, Hymen Plenn made a very good henpeckeil Cai'sar, with Cather- ine Dutton as Calpurnia, doing the pecking. The second Dinner Party had a much larger cast. Portia, iVIary Freeman, CloiUa, Margaret Blackwell, and Cleopatra, Agnes L. Tidden, appear at the house of Lncnllits, played by John Clark Tidden in his best manner. (ju\' Rail, the Cockney Slave from Britian and H. B. Penix, the Cook, drew numerous laughs.
Beauty ot settmg, costumes, and lighting effects teatured the piresentation of The Sire de Maletroit's Door, adapted from Stevenson's short story by W. M. Darling. Guy Rail, as the sinister old nobleman who seeks to preserve the honor of his house at whatever cost, did a splendid piece ot character work. Jean Sproule as Bla?3c/u', his persecuted niece, and Jack Glenn as De?iis, a young soldier, enacted an adequate romance, while Kenneth Rowe was effective in a small part as Franrois, the priest. The adaptation made an interesting and striking little drama. It was directed by j(.ihn Chirk Tidden.

I'hc Y. W. C. A. play this \ear was ]^idc\\ ami as the onlv three aet pla\' attempted, was the most amhiti<.>iis and one of the most notable productions ot the year. While it was not as serious as a good many of the Dramatic Club offerings, it had a witler appeal because of its very lightness. With no very well defined plot to carry through, with no \er\ great problems to solve or crises to meet, it went along by force of its e.xcellent characterization. There is no need to go over the storv, for it seemed that everyone was there to see it. There was no escaping the efficient work ot the \ . \V. C. .A. ladies once the tickets were put on sale, ami the audience was large.
To Martha Scott should go the laurels. Her work m the title role has been \ery favorably compared with that of the original production of this play by those who ought to know. She chatters incessantly through the three acts as the trite young wife determined ti> help her husbaml along. Not once was she out of character, nor did her \oice tail to carrv the proper shadings. There is no doubt that she did one of the best bits of actinsf done bv amateurs m Houston.

The French aud Spanish 'Plays
Tlif P'l'cnch aiul Spanish plays, althdugh not given at the same time, are grouped together because they tall in the category ot those things we all attend 111 hopes ot boosting our grades, even though we are usualK' unable to figure out what they're all about.
The French play this year had to do with the difficulties presented foreigners by the English language, and particularly the misfortunes ot a young French would-be interpreter who probably got his English in a university language course. Englis/i .Is Site Is Spok(\ literal translation of the French title which we are afraid t<i attempt, proved an enioyable production, with Jean Sproul, Ray St. John, Paul Creekmore, Sallie Lee St. Louis, Guinevere Miller, J. H. Chillnian, Prosper Pelmont, and Eugene Oberle in the cast.
NLirionettes were introiliiced into uni\ersity theatricals when the Spanish ,)io section presented a one act play, El Amanlc Corie dc J'isto, at the Autry House. As the title indicates, it deals with the troubles of a young Spanish swain, who, although near-sighted, prefers to put up with the inconvenience rather than wear glasses and lie considered a fop. The play was written by members of the class, and the puppets were made by Mr. Escher.
Dr. Glasscock's 400 section gave the Spanish comedy. Yd Somas Trrs. The action is rather complicated when three women claim the same husband in the presence of his uncle, upon whom he wishes to make a good impression. By brilliant diplomac)' he escapes his predicament. Burt Hinkley was the husband, Joseph Gallegly the uncle, Thelma \Mednian, Rose Wade, and Anna Howe the wives. James Russell, as the real husband of one of the women, makes things more complicated.

The IVriting Qliih ^Vlays
With the assistance of the Dramatic Ckili, the Writing Lluii produced its second bill ot original plays on May 7. The first hill was given last Spring and was composed of two original plays, a comedy, Ai I Has Saying, hy Grace Crawford Smith, and Out of the Dark, by Margaret Blackwell, together with Maeterhnck's Death of Tantagiles, also in cooperation with the Dramatic Club. The second production consisted oijcns, a character sketch by K. T. Rowe; The Liar, a comedy by S\bilniarie Denniston, and Six in a Shop, by Elizabeth Mortoni.
JeJis, based on an actual occurence, deals with the efforts of a well meaning, though rather weak charactered, young Dane to rise above the life he leads as a common seaman and its temptations and return home. The _
cynicism of one man destroys in five minutes the efforts of another to set _7''"-'' right.
Sailors in this play were Tresmer Johnson, Wallace Uhl, and Allen King. J. I. Campbell, as 'Jeiis, did some excellent characterization. Frank Miller, as Craig, who attempts to help 'Je>/s, and D. T. McLaughlin, as Sterling, the cook, who defeats his purpose, rounded out a good cast. Direction of this play was in the hands of E. M. Robertson.
The Liar has to do with the attempts of three mischievous cousins to humanize a very upright and conscientious young man to whom all untruth is abhorrent. They are entirely successful, for by the end of the pla\ , the \ciung man, played by Ed. Kellv, turns out to be a most amazing liar when the occasion demands it. Parts of the plotters were taken b\ Mary Louise Ford, Cora .Agnes Wilson, and J. Lawrence Moore, with Arthur Hoilm as the Father. Miss Allie King did a nice piece of work as the girl who had been out seven seasons and was still op- timistic. Charles Emmett Pdliott directed this play.
The third plav was also something of a character sketch. Six i>/ a Shop, like the first, had considerable 'atmosphere', the scene being laid in a plaster shop. Arthur Zucht, as --l)igeli, the shopkeeper, and Gordon Potts, as Ser-
ajino Peacock, the successful man in his line who is looked to as a leader by the others, handled rather difficult parts well. Charles Emmett Elliott was visiting artist.
The best bit <jf acting of the evening, or of several evenings — was done by W. ^L Darling as Cellini, the sculptor newly arrived from Italy, whose hopes are so cruelly dashed b>- the practical Serajino be- cause his work had not the commercial value of a Kewpie or a Billiken. Cellini's part was an unusual one, and its interpretation showed careful stud\' and sympathetic understanding. This play was directeii by Jean Sproule.

Slimesses caught their first glimpse ot the feminine upperclassmen's "sans dignity" at the annual Woman's Council Stunt Party, October lo. The timid little creatures tiptoeil softly into the -Autry House, and fearfully awaited the disclosure ot what was brewing behiml the closed tloors.
A gasp of profound astonishment went up from them as the curtain rose on a very intimate scene — mtenseh' interesting to a group of the fair se.\ ot large proportions. The dignifieil Y. W. C ,A.'s were )iresenting one of their biggest stars m the confidential musical drama, U'rcik Creation.
The warm glow ot pleasure at being thus admitted into the secrets of their hitherto unapproachable superiors had iust diffused itself o\er the features of the last girl in the last row, when it flared up into the fianung red of embarrass- ment, as the girls beheld a realistic dramatization of their first days at college. The feminine Les Hibouxes were forgetting their exalted rank in reproducing the verdantness anil dumbness of the slime maidens ot '2fi in a sad conietly.
.A respite from these painful recollections was quickly afforded b\' the gripping melodramatic offering of the Klizabeth Baldwin Literary Society, ()nc Dreadful Kni'iht in a Barroom. Much dramatic ability was displayed by the more serious minded E. B. L. S.es. The Slimes almost forgot this was acting, so realistic and serious was the production.
The tenseness ot the situation was relieved by the Pallas Athaene Literary Society with their play School Days, which reminded them that upperclassmen are only slimes more or less grown up.
Great was the excitement over the presentation of the Dramatic Ckib celeb- rities, Vampiro and Banditti, m a thrilling Italian underworkl dance, and soft w'ere the sighs that responded to the realistic love scenes of Diiclla and Her .Alpine Lover, an idyl presented by the Woman's Council, the hostesses of the occasion.
Jazz and ice cream cones completed the process.

There were no wonderful or outlandish costumes, everyone came in his oki clothes or dressed up according to his idea ot what a hick looked like. Charlie Dixon and his bunch ot tarm hands were at their best, anil the confetti anil serpentine made things even more int(.)rmal, it that were possible. There were the usual 'cut-ups' that grace any ilance, country or not, ami no one could have had a sad time if he tried.
Along towarils eleven o'clock wemers, buns, and soda pop were served. No one was ready to g(j home when it was time to quit except, maybe, the musi- cians.

\©
The most brilliant aiui artistic affair of the spring season — indeed of the entire year — was the Deep Sea Ball given l>y the Arehi-Arts Society ot Rice Institute on the evening ot April fourth at the Autry House.
The elaborate scenic arrangement skillfully rep- resentee! a subterranean ca\ern in which treasure ships, men-o-war, merchantmen, and fishing smacks had been sunk. To the most critical connoisseur of artistic stage effect, the scene was perfectly reproduced. The artificial walls were painted with - ^ .-
fishes, and sea demons, anil e\'en Xeptune himself — '^»— -;
rose above it all to command the waves.
From inverted lamps, a half light shed through the low drapcil billowy ceihng, gave a realistic effect of sunlight sitting through the waves to the ocean floor. This submarine effect was heightened by the phosphorescent outlines ot the paintings that shone out weirdly when the lights were dimmed.
Jack Sharp's orchestra, hidtien from view m a secludeil c]uarter, gave the signal to start at nine thirty, and tor ffve hours the guests were thoroughly satisffetl with one of the most unique dances ever given at the Institute.
The entire length ot the spacious cave was occupied on one side by the re- cumbent body of an enormous sea dragon with wide stretched mouth through which, at midnight, a delightful shrimp salad course was served. Even in the refreshments was the nautical theme observed.
The nature of the liance offered an excellent opportunity tor originality in design, and the costumes of the guests featured amongst them beach combers, Spanish couples, captured princesses and corsairs bold, Dutch fisher maids, bathing beauties, sailors, mermaids, and several varieties ot fish.
Among the many unique sketches offered as entertainment during the evening was a submarine circus. A chorus of bathing beauties sang snatches of popular music, and tour trained seals displayed remarkable intelligence in arithmetical calculation. Mr. Tidden gave a delightful skit ot comedian tricks, ably assisted by the musical trio of entertainers. White, Flaxman, and Moore.
It was with a decided sensation ot unwillingness that the guests received the strains of Ho>ne Sweet Home, marking the conclusion of the prettiest dance ot the year.

the Mess Hail Saturday evening, April the four- teenth. Mr. Graves McGee and Miss Martha Scott led the Grand March at nine o'clock, anci the long line ot guests apparelled in Apache cos- tume ot brilliant and riscjue design contrasted strikingly with the scullery motif in house decora- tions. Strings ot kitchen utensils, white aprons, ami menu cards ornamented the walls, while among the guests were numbered bar maids, cut-throats, and light fingered gentry of all kinds.
Above the jazz of Jack Sharpe's Apache orches- tra, the noise ot shrill police whistles, or the explosion ot a revolver soundeil at intervals, as order was preserved among the dancers by an efficient committee of bouncers that hesitated not at all in the pertormance ot its impressive duties. Ot the many cabaret teatures proviiied, the most enjoyable was the intricate and elaborate rendition ot an original interpretation ot the Valentino Glide by Graves McGee and "Miss" Sottie Cecil. The bouncers threw them both out when It became too rovigh.
xAt ten o'clock a vocal quartet announced the presence of iced punch, which proved a delighttul retreshment during the remaincier of the evening.
The entire aftair was c.xcellciitK plannetl and successtully carried out, and although it was a Saturday dance and necessarily short, it was one ot the most enjoyable ot the season.
The Jini/or "Proin
"The ini.arnati(in ot Spring" was the theme dh- served m the ehainiing decorative features nt the Prom gi\eii In the (Class of '24. The spacious re- ception suite in the Commons was transtormeJ into a deHghttiil garden surroundeil h\ vine-covered treUises, on which bloomed the van-colored flowers ot Spring. A garden wall, with rustic gate at one end ot the room gave an added touch of attracti\'e setting. Shaded lights hidden ainong the flowers reflected a sott glow, as ot moonlight, castintj shad- ows here and there about the garden.
Starting at nine o'clock, with the (irand March, led by Mr. Clarence Baker, Junior Class president, and Miss Louise Taylor, the dance continued until two.
Special features ot entertainment during intermissions were vocal selections by Graves McCiee and a pretty aesthetic dance by Miss Ricker.
Frozen punch was ser\-ed throughout the e\'ening, and at midnight the guests enjoyed a retreshment course, appropriate t(i the Spring gartleii niotit.

After the three hour trip down to Sylvan Beach, swinmung, dancing, eating, and having the boat run aground during the return trip over the moonless and otherwise unlighted Bayou, everyone proclaimed It a complete success, and even the treasurer ioined in the chorus.
The course was down the winding, sparkling, Buffalo Bavou past the San Jacinto Battle Grounds, and across the bay from Morgan's Point to Sylvan Beach.
.Arri\ing at the pier about s i.'io, the two hundred passengers rushed to dis- embark and took m Syl\ an Beach. Some of the more sportivelv inclined indulged in a swim. In due time lunches were unpacked and light chatter ceased for a few minutes while the important ceremony of eating was finished. Mrs. Blake, the official chaperone, provided refreshments for the stags.
The music started at 7 o'clock, which precipitated a rush for the dance pavilion.
The fifteen minute notice that the time of departure was near was given by the whistle of the N lilnihius and by the shouts by which the dancers attempted to lirown the uinvelcome snunds of the whistle. .About >> o'clock the first couples seized the most advantageous seats, and within fifteen minutes, every one was on board and the return trip started.

By A\i)v, Houston Post Sports Editor
Looking over the performances ot Rice teams m various sports tor the past year, there are a lot lA encouraging factors which present themseKes. Just forget scores and results ot contests, that's all dr\' sort of stutt anyway. After all, to find the big things of the year at Rice you mustn't look at the score card, It doesn't tell ainthing.
Analyzing Rice is prett\' much the same as taking a clock apart to see wJiat makes it go. You find a lot ot wheels, and springs, and a case, and some screws, and holts, and a tlock ot other parts. Put 'em all together just as they should go and see if it runs. It won't hecause there's a little halance spring you've left out, and that balance spring at Rice is a much maligned factor known as school spirit. Let's see what it consists of. First and foremost, good sports- manship. It's inborn in all of Rice. It seems that if one hasn't this quality when he goes there, he must acquire it befi'te he can be one ot the real bona tide students of the game. Rice has tight — clean tight. It must have it. Rice is courteous to all opponents. Rice has a student body that iloesn't waver. Rice is learning to be patient and be loyal during re\'erses. As Rice grows, this spirit will grow, and as this spirit grows, there will be greater things done by the Rice team.
It \ou read this, iust recall the Ba\dor game. To me that was one of the school's best performances of the \ear. Rice tlidn't give way to weight, it was overcome by it. Hut during this process ot battering — how painful only those chaps of the moleskin know — I watched critically tor a sign of quitting. That sign wasn't there. I listeiietf to the Rice rooting section for a break m the voices that spelled lack of support, milk and water encfiuragement. I didn't hud that sit;n because it wasn't there. If there was some wa\' of measuring that thing called 'heart' in sports, I belie\'e N'ou'd 'nnA that the 'heart' of Rice was bigger 111 the last ipiarter, despite, or mavbe m spite of, that battering, than at the start of the game. One need not measure voice volume to know that the rooting section rooted louder in the last quarter than ex'er before.
\'ict(jry IS sweet to any school, but \'ictory without honor isn't w<jrth a thing. Maybe Rice hasn't set any worlils on fire yet b\' winning, but the Rice teams of today, the Rice student body of toda\', and the Rice spirit of today, are pa\'ing
..-JvlP\>^[LE
a golden road upun which the greater Rice teams ot years to come will tread majestically.
Houston IS growmg, Texas is growing, the South is growing. That growth will reflect Itself m Rice some ot these davs. That growth will hring more ma- terial tor athletic teams to Rice, and it you give your coaches material plus a wonderful school spirit, you can expect the only result — great athletic teams.
Last year when Phil Arhuckle issvied the football call, I think I counted about twent\"-fiv'e per cent ot the eligible male Rice stmlent botly on the field in answer to that call. It you don't think that is an accomplishment for a school to point to, just go into some coiiiparatu'e figures. It twenty-five per cent ot the student body ot Yale or Princeton or Harvard turned out tor football, the coaches woukl die ot |oy. .And a lot ot Rice grid camlidates turned out lust because they thought they were needed. Just put it in your pipe ami smoke it that Rice now has the main part ot the clock, a balance spring. Retain that and the other parts ot the clock will soon be shaped. Gi\'e the other fellows full credit it they win, but remember that a gamcK" tought defeat counts just as much among real sportsmen as tloes a gamely tought \'ictory.

Phillip H. Arhuckle, Director of Ath- letics, undertook the major responsibility for all Rice teams this \ ear. While his methods have not met with popular approval at all times, his results have, iin the whole, justified them. He has turned out clean, hard hghtmg teams, not alwavs winners, hut alwavs men.

P. H. Arbuckle
His excellent college record ani.1 his year's coaching here have made Verges a valuable assistant to Coach Arbuckle. His work has been the moulding of the backfield of the \'arsity squad and the h'reshman team. He has had charge of Freshman basketball anil has assisted with the regulars.

Leonard Hilty, King ot the P. T. division of athletics and line coach lor both the Regular and Slime squads, has done good service. He is an ail-Ameri- can tackle, and his knowledge ot line- work has been a great help in developing out ot a light squad a line that was able to hold heavier (jpponents.

L. F. Hilty
Bob Countryman has had the baseball team tor nearly two years now. He is an experienced man, having played big league ball, and is manager and player in an Eastern league. \Miile he has yet to turn out a championship team, he has put some good ones on the field.
Bob Cocxtrvm.i
C.\Mr,\NILE ^^
Pur several years has Push Taylor assisted in directing the tiestmies ot the Slime football squad with no return but the appreciation of the community he has served, and the satisfaction that he, as a true lover of the game, gets out of keeping up with it. In many ways has Taylor been resptjnsible for the successes of the Freshman teams, \\ hich the uni- versitv at large has heard little.
Taylor
Jack has not usually been placed along with the coaches in previous -Athletic write-ups, but his interest in the univer- sity he works for and the men he works with should place him there. He has been here as long as we have hail ath- letics. While he is now somewhat more portlv than he was when he came, he is just as handy with his liniments, bandages and buckets.

Football ig22
An F'.astern professor once defined football as a 'hodge-podge of intercol- legiate lirutalit)-.' A famous coach has called the game an 'athletic uncertainty.' \Mien one anal\'zcs the Owls' 1922 season, after the vvhizz-hang-hurrah atmos- phere of the rooting section has blown over, it is easy to conclude that both the professor and the coach spoke with authority.
Certauily it was brutal tor Rice's second team to defeat Sam Houston Normal
23 to ,^ witli only starting help from the first string men. But it was even more brutal fur Baylor to plow through .^rbuckle's best for a 31 to o \'ictory. Surely it is 'athletic uncertainty' to side-step the -Arkansas L'mversity tacklers for a
24 point victory, and the next week lose all the 24 points to A. ls; M. Inciden- tally, that A. & M. game was a 'hodge-podge of brutality' in the eyes of the Rice rooting gang.
In the entire Southwest, 1922 was a season of surprises. Baylor l/niversity, for instance, erstwhile practice game for Rice, acquired a couple of man-moun- tains named Blailock and Bradshaw and made a clean sweep of her schetlule, not e.xcepting the Owls. This performance is a standing example that reputation is not everything — that untler proper contiitions any school may jump to the front m a single season.
I'wo years agu when .A. & M. defeated the team that defeated Harvard, Rice tietl A. \' M. 7 to 7. Last vear, when even little Howard Payne college beat the Aggies, the Aggies beat Rice 24 to o. ^'erlly, 1922 was a season of surprises.
"Brutality" is best practiced by men of big physiques. The Rice 'kid' team, as one of our well known dailies was pleased to refer to it, unquestionably the pluckiest gang ever donning a blue ami gray uniform, knew that Texas and Baylor and A. & M. had big players, but they sought to offset size with speed and perseverance. It couldn't be done. They attacked unfalteringly for sixty minutes of each game, but a ]6o pound team average simply could not defy the laws of physics enough to defeat k^"; pound teams. It was great to see Charlie Swart/ outgain 220 pound Blailock, but the hellu\"it was that the other teams had l-5lailocks in the line, in the backfield, and on the bench, while Rice had less than half a dozen Charlies.
This is not said to discredit any Rice player, in the l^ice Hall of Fame, each of the 22 Icttermen will get credit because each pla\ clI td the utmost of his abilirx-, but unfortunately this ability was limited b\- nature in too many cases.
Coach Phil has announced for next year that he will work tor weight in his line. Let us sing praises! Coach Phil worked for weight in his line last season, but the weight wasn't available. For the first time in histiir\ , .Arbuckle awarded a football R to a 124 pound man. In '2;, with half a chance at luck, he will award letters to half a dozen two hundred pountlers, ami there are Charlies for the backfield.

Later in the quarter. Captain Boettcher recovered a fumbled punt and the hall was adx'anced to within striking distance of the goal, when Swartz drop- kicked for three points from the ■2!;-yard hne.

Bitter, desperate fight and clever headwork could '""""' not overcome the weight handicap of the Bears, so
the Owls lost their first conference game.
Perhaps the outstanding figure ot the game was Blailock, and his fancy stunt of plaving line and hackfield at the same time. This human avalanche was hard to stop, and jarred those who unilertook to do so consklerably.
Charlie Swartz acquireil the ai]uiline cast ot his features in this game, when a broken nose forced him to retire in the early part. Chambers and McGee
were the most consistent performers fur Rice, although
it was not possible to pick an\" outstanding star.s, for
the whole team put all that they had mtn the game.
There were instances when their play was nor all
that It shovikl ha\'e been, for costly fundilcs were
made. Be that as it ma\ , there was no tlL'n\ing that
Rice had a scrapping luinch of footballers. The\'

The Aggies started the first quarter with a rush and made two touclnlowns m quick succession.
In the second quarter the Owls tightened up, and by the y:nd of the half had the Aggies prett\' much worried to keep them from scoring.
Both teams committed many tumliles, Rice making three and the Aggies six. The Rice fumbles were the more costU, howexer, cominii at critical times,
one of them guing a touchdown tn ( )klali"ma. Okla- homa hati the adx'antage in punting, hut the < 'wis were superior m passing, completing fi\e tor a total of sixty-six yanls t>> their opponents one tor htrceii yarcis.

Another story that runs somewhat like the pre- ceding one; a light, fighting team against a heavy, aggressive one. The L'niversity eleven matie good use ot its twenty-pound nian-tor-nian adwintage in weight and ploughed through the Owls for three touchdowns. Swenson matie the fourth in the last quarter, when he intercepted a forward pass and ran twenty yartls across the line.
Charlie Swartz was the outstanding pla\er of the
game, and his work this day, without a douht, made
certain his selection as All-Southwestern half-hack. " B///" Simi-son
The manner in which he caught passes and side- stepped tor long gains was a delight to witness. Bill -Simpson can hardly he given less credit, for he was the only Rice man who was able to make headway through the hea\y Texas line.

In the last period the Owls confined themselves almost eiitircK' to passes m desperate attempts to score.
.So tar as pure guts is concernetl, every Rice man was a star. The hopeless weight haiulicap made no dirtercnce to them. Their playing fiill\ made up tor the debacle o( last year.
The rooters pulled their most elaborate stunts ot
the year at this game. Before the game opened the Rice co-etis marched on the field, 400 strong, clad in white, and carrying blue ballons. 'i'hev were tolloued by the Texas band aiul the new Te.xas Cowbo\s, who iiiaile a tlecideil hit as they marcheii about the field 111 a ■ ■ r l" formation.

The story of this game is easily told. The Aggies utilizeii superior strength and strategy to batter the Rice line in the first half; and then to gain almost at will through the line and through the air when the seconti period began. The lone score of the first half was made when Morris maiie a placement kick from the twenty-fi\-e yard line i)i the second quarter.
Throughout the first quarter .A. ^: M. plaved a tieteiisive game, in most cases punting on the first down and pla>ing for the breaks. Rice seemed skeptic about punting, after Wilford's first kick was blocked on the ten-yard line, although they gained from five
to ten yanls on the exchange of kicks in the first
quarter. 'I'hey made repeatedly unsuccessful at- tempts to gain through the line.
The team fought hard, although their work was
by no means the eipud of that which they did in the
Arkansas game. A hesitancy and uncertainty seemed
to pervade the backfield which accounted for manv
failures to gain.

Later in the perii_)d he attempted another kick from the forty-two yard line which fell tar short. Neither side was able to gain through the line, and only one first (,iown was made, the Aggies completing a fifteen yaril forward pass in mid-held.
Early in the second period the Farmers worked the ball into a position from which thc\' were able to make a held goal. Later they carried the ball to withm a
foot of the Owl goal line, but were held for downs. The rest of the period was a dead-lock.
Li the thirtl quarter, the Aggies plugged steadily away at the Rice line. Carrying the ball to the ten \ari.l line, they were frustrateti when Chambers in- tercepted a pass. Late in the quarter they were able to push over a touchilown.

Because nt the 'one-year' rule m the Si)uthwestern Cunterciice, it is necessary tci have Freshman teams. While its ohiect was to curb the acti\ities of the tramp athlete, it has provided tor an institution which its torinulators prohahh' did not have in mind when they drew it up. The Freshman team is not supposed to ha\e main games, hut it provides tor a training school where new men can serve an apprenticeship working with and against regulars. Candklates thus get more attention than they woukl otherwise, and they learn the sort ot tootliall the\" will ha\e to know to get a berth on the regular scjuad.
There was much good material in this year's Slime squad. It did not have a brilliant career, but it was of great assistance m putting the regulars in shape, and there is no doubt that its members learncti more inside tootball than they had picked up in their previous experience.
Their first game against Heights High turned out as was expected. The Slimes won i ;; too. The second was not so successtul. The Port .Arthur Pirates, a group ot ex-college stars, put it on them to the tune ot 'j; to o. It may be that the amount ot booze eonsunieci by the Pirates buoyed them up to pertorm un- usual teats. \x any rate, they had the jump on our Slimes trom the start. 'The Slimes liid their best, but showed the effects ot daily scrimmage with the varsity. At least thirt\- members ot the treshman class turneil out to keep up that old fight trom the stands.
-After this the Slimes journeyed to Sam Houston Normal, where the Xor- malities took it out on them tor the drubbing they got in Houston at the hands ot their big brothers. The score was ,; r to o. The\' then went to Hrownsx'ille to wiiul up the season, playing a 6 to 'i tie when they should ha\e won. 'The pro.ximit)' ot the border may have had somethmii; to do with this.
So It wasn't such a bad season. We are rather prouci ot our Slimes, and hope rhe\' won't tempt Providence aivl the Prots too much.

The Rice haskctball season of 1922 can he character- ized hy that factor typical of sports in general — uncertaint)'. It's this quality that makes the hohi all sports have on the American public — basketball, football, boxing, and the others. The spirit of anv one of these sports was, perhaps, best expressed bv (jocthe, when he said, "The okl sa\'ing is expressed with depth aiul significance, 'on the pinnacle of for- tune man does not long stand firm'."
The ( )\\ Is, through a brilliant start, were stood at the top of the heap — feared throughout the South- western Conference. Indi\idual as well as team play was sparkling. And then came the rexersal. Oh, the gloom scattered around the Campus by those re- versals!
But the thing that most impressed us last season with the Owls when the\- were in their slump was that t/ifv iicvcr ^^nvr up. That means far more than the mere winning ami losing of games. The old right-— the grim carrying on m the face of defeat was e\er present m the ()\\ls' pla\".
Through the slump, meanwhile, the Rice student boiiy stooil behind the team loyally. It brought back to us our college ilays when the campus fortune year after year was to root our hearts out for losing teams. This same spirit displayed by both Rice teams and the Rice stvidents made us wish that professional sports contained more of this rine enthusiasm and lo\'e of the sport tor the sport's sake; less of the sordid commercial that's the plea that ought to be made to-ila\'.
It would be unfair to single out an\- one member of the (Jwls as the feature star of the season, for the pla\- of the whole flock was capable, brilliant, and flash).
Let's ha\e another season of the same stuff!

Rice abandoned her policy of playing none but College teams this year, and took on the Good Gulf team of Port Arthur and the Triangles of the Houston y. M. C. A., both strong independent amateur teams.
The first was more or less unfortunate. More accu- rate in their long shots and using an air tight fiye- man defense, the Good Gults deteatetl the (Jwls in the first game of the season. It was hart! fought from start to finish. At no time did the yisitors haye a decided lead until the last three minutes, when the>- looped three goals in quick succession.
The basketball Owls hail all the fight and spirit that the football Owls had shown, but were not accu- rate enough. Moore was out of the game 111 the first half with a sprained knee which kept him out fur the rest of the season.

The Owls won their first conference game when they defeated the Oklahoma Aggies 26 to 16. The game was erratic. At times both teams would demonstrate e.xcellent basketball, and at others would fall into mediocre play. After the first score by Swartz in the first few seconds of pla\', there was not nuich scoring or interesting basketball in the first half.
The second was faster, and both teams were more aggressive. The Rice scoring machine worked much more smoothly in this than in the first game.

The second game proved to be a different matter. Starting with a fury, but going to pieces in the latter part of the second half, is the story of the defeat for the Owls by the Aggies from Oklahoma. Cautioned by the referee, the Rice team seemed nervous and over-anxious to avoid fouling, and were not as aggressive as they usually are.
It was not until towards the last part of the first half that the Oklahoma boys began piling up scores. The Owls tried haril to come back in the second period, and for a few minutes it looked as if the\ would, but the rally did not last — and one conference game was lost.

On rlu' second night, Rice put on a much better cxhibitiiin than they had the night before. They had difficult)', however, in finding the basket. The games were rough, and the tootball tactics used netted 27 personal fouls.
Rice got off to a gooci start, and were leading for the first part of the game. At the end of the first half the score was 9 to 9.

For five minutes neither side was able to score, then Fitch and Willis slipped in two field goals. A. & M. wasn't long in ca'.ching up, and from then on it was neck and neck, with the result in doubt until the timer's nun.

The first game nt the hist Texas series had a shnv start, with both teams playing sluggish basketball. Another ot the trick referees which usually grace Texas games officiated. This one is supposed to be the basketball coach ot one ot our neighbors on the east, we let that pass tor appearances are deceiving. This gentleman was unable to make a decision with- out reference to his rule book, advice from the side- lines, and the use ot a slide rule. Captain Pap Peyton, silver tongued orator of the Texas quintet, showed himself more than willing at all times to assist the hard-pressed referee.
Between debates, the Owls managed to slip in enough goals to win the game, but basketball was only a minor part of the evening's entertainment. As a game it was unsatisfactory.

The second game was much more exciting. Pla\ was faster and there were fewer outside delays. Although Rice lei.1 all the way, they had to keep hustling, for at no time was it certain that the game was theirs.
F^ike the first, it started oft in a rough and tumble fashirm, both teams using football tactics with evident enjoyment.
In the second period, however, they settled down to business aiul showed some real basketball. The whole Rice team was playing championship ball, per- forming tar more consistently than the l.onghorns.

The Owls were not equal to the pace they started off with in the first game ot the Baylor series.
Beginning with a whirlwind start, Rice played all around the Bears, but it proved to be another Hare and Tortoise stor\', for Ba\'lor won out b\' steady, it unspectacular, plugging. After the start, the Owls were oft' f(jrm, particularly in their goal shooting.
Baylor won in the last halt-minute — the only time during the game that they were in the lead.

The second game was much better — at least from our standpoint. The Owls showed dashes ot brilliant team work at times, with an offensi\'c that the Bears could not cope with. There was, however, a good deal ot ragged work on their part, and although they were better than in tlic preceiling game, they were not as good as rlicy had been in other games.

Rice closed the season b_\' licking the Sooners. It was no eas\' matter, for the ()klah(ima bunch got otf to a good start, ending the hrst halt with a five point lead.
The Owls got the ]unip on them m the second half, however, aiitl ran up eight points before the Aggies knew what was happening. In this half they had no chance. The Owls were all o\er the court, and made si.xteen points while Okla- homa niaile one helil goal and two fouls.
It has always been customary to say that the Senior members ot a basketball sc^uad 'played the best game of their careers' in writing up the last game of any season. Les Coleman li\ed up to this trailition, as nearly as he could, tor he has played manv 'best games' this year.
When \(>ii come to speak of best games, though, the w h(jle list of regulars must be brought in. Willis, Captain, Guard, Center, and Forward is undoubtedl)' the most versatile man in the Conference, and deserves his place on the Con- ference team. Swartz has been as fast on the court as he was on the gridiron, and has dealt as much misery to his opponents. Ray has been as steady and as dependable a guard as could be desired, ably filling McKean's place. Fitch, although off at times, has done very creditable work at forward, as has Baker at center and Campbell at guard.

The career ut the Slinie liaskethall was somewhat limited this year. Many (it the best freshman players were on prohation and coultl n(jt come out. Several were lost through early season casualties. The freshmen who did last out the season rendered a great ser- vice m helping to put the regulars into con- dition.
So far as games won are concerned, there were not many. The slimes went out of then- class in their first game when they took on the Galveston ,Sea Gulls. They couldn't do much against their more seasoneii and ex- perienced opponents, and lost by the score of 42 til 29.

We have with us, the Intra-Mural Basketball Champions. This assemblage ot ex-High School stars, whose play was just a little below the standard ot the reiiular Basketball Owls, and beef — the ingredients ut a successtul mtra-mural athletic team as such are conducted at Rice, thoroughly deserve their title, tor theirs is the only team that conscientiously worked and practiced. 'I'heirs was far and away the best aggregation in that assemblage of stars that partook of the race this year. They won most ot their games by big scores, their guards being splendid wrestlers, e.xcellent imitators ot John L. Sullivan, and withal, football tacticians par excellence.
It the same brand of football were employed on the gridiron as was displayed by the members ot the Intra-Mural Basketball League, there is no doubt that Rice could lick all comers and not bank on next year's results for a football championship. The referees lined up by the League officials and the spectators demanded blood, and m the rough and tumble tree tor alls, that ensued got what they demanded. However, everybody had a good time, a tew teeth were dam- aged, and quite a bit of hide was left on the gym floor.

Track ILI22
With the smallest number of letters awarded since 1919, with no easy meets, and with no reserves or replacements from the freshmen, the season of 1922 was all that could have been expected. It we failed to win victories, it was because the same trouble afflicted us that beset the 1921 team, when, with an "array of individual stars, some of whom were without parallel in Texas track and field. Rice might ascribe her lack of success to a deficiency of 'almost as good' men for second places."
This condition has been growing worse since 1920, for Rice has not put out a well balanccil team since then. In that year there were 14 letters awarded, and only the loss of two men through injuries — Ixjth sure point winners — kept the Owls from being Conference champions. In 1921, most of these returned, but there were no new stars discovered, and (jnly ele\en letters were awarded — three less than the previous year.
Six of these men, all of whom had been on the 1920 team, were the 1922 track team. I.indsey and Goss were sure of their places in the dashes, with Lindsey usually takmg a first in the shot put, and occasionally stepping out in the quarter. Hinkley was good in the high jump, and has been holcier of the Conference recorci in the broati jump since he was a freshman. DePrato usually tied for first in the pole vault. Alexander was consistent performer in the high jump and with the weights. Coleman was about as good as any middle distance man in the state, and more than once extended his distance to the mile because we had no distance men. But since one man can take only one place in any one event, these could not do everything. In the Texas meet, they took seven first places, but lost the meet, 68 to 48. Even if Illinois had not ovitclassed them, the Owls would have lost because they did not have the 'near greats' to fill in with the second places, anci Illinois had three men for every event. The Owls took third place at the Conference, breaking one record and tying another.
h team that does not turn out to be a winner always brings harsh words to the coach. The Campanile cannot take it ujion itself to criticise the actions of our athletic general staff and heatlquarters, nor can it very well upbraid the student body. However, it does think that a little heart searching would be of benefit, tor it is obvious to everyone that Rice can hope tor results no tlifferent from the 1921 anci 1922 seasons unless new material is developed.

The Owls opened the 1922 track season at Waco by trimming the Bears on Carroll Field April first. The meet was close throughout, and the result was not certain until after the relay.
Individual honors were shared hy Hinkley and Pittman, each taking two first places and one second place. Burt surprised his own team and strengthened a weak spot hy winning the 120-yard high hurdles.
Coleman twisted the dope completely m the mile and half mile, two of Baylor's best bets. Goss starred in the sprints, taking first in both the hundred and the two-twenty. Lindsey, although off form in the hundred, brought home a total of eleven points by taking first phice in the shot put and second in the hundred and in the pole vault.

Alexander improved in his work of last year and took first in the discus at 117 feet, i inch, and second in the javelin.
A new star was discovered when Watt made a good second place in the quarter and got oft to a good lead in the relay.
The relay was the deciding event, for if Baylor had won it they would have had the meet by one point. However, there was no danger of this happen- ing, for Watt got a good lead on the first lap which was steadily increased by Bellew, Goss, and Lindsey, who finished a quarter of a lap ahead of the Baylor man.

In reviewing the work of the 1921 team, the Campanih- saiil that it was "still in the htile, hut coming out," and while we cannot brag very nuich as yet about Institute baseball, the 1922 team came out of the hole a good bit further. Although thev won four out of the nine games they played, as against three out of twelve m 1921, they were too erratic tor Conference championship contenders.
ConsKlenng the players mtinidually, it would seem that a better showing should have been made. Dyer was of big league calibre — he signed with the St. Louis Cardinals at the close of the season; Melton was one of the best pitchers of the conference, and Dunkerlv, while not quite up to the standard of these, was not far below it. Boettcher, Captain Hughes, and Locke are a trio of steady, good hitting outfielders. Waters is a good second baseman, reliable in a pinch, and with a good batting average. Swartz is a good all around infielder, quick on pickups and with a good snap to first, a steady player. Button, while he tlidn't scoop up as many as he should have at short, played good ball, and tor two seasons has stood high in conference batting averages. Walker was a steady, hard-working catcher. Surelv, these elements shouUi have produced a smooth working outfit. This seems to have been the source of the trouble. The Owls were not a smooth working club. Thcv had a bad temiency to go to pieces under strain. In look- ing o\er the box scores, it seems that the seventh inning was particularly hard luck for them, for in three of the games they lost, they blew up in that inning. Their game was good both before and after these critical periods, but when thev were bad, thev were like the little girl of fable, they were very, very bad. In five games for which the box scores are available, thc>' are given 22 errors, 15 hits, ami 14 runs, I 2 of which were made in one game, the first of the A. t\: AL series. Their worst game was the second o'i this series, when they made 8 errors. The last game of the season was, perhaps, the best, for although Baylor shut them out in a no hit game, they played good ball throughout, making but two errors.
The Owls were handicapped by the bad weather that kept them iniloors tor most of their training period. They went out in I''ebruary, but were forced to discontinue. During March there was little opportunit\' and it was not until after .April was well under way that weather conditions were suitable. By then, the Cf)nference race was on. It is not surprising, then, that the Owl's team work was poor and their pitchers lost so many games because ot poor support.

After a forced rest of two weeks on account of the exams and rain, the Owls took on the Shriners from Arabia Temple. The game went seven innings anil the Owls came out with the big end ot the score.
Dunkerly and Melton pitched for Rice and showed plenty of stuff, allowing but two hits. They recei\ed good support.
T^ce 6, Qcntral High School ^
Since the heavy rains prevented the regular games which had been scheduled with A. & M., the Rice nine put in the time defeating the Central High School team. The game was well played, with the High School players showing some exceptional ability, and bv errorless fielding and some hits when they were needed, gave the Owls a close race.
Melton pitched a wonderful game fur the Owls, and set a fast pace with the bat, getting tour hits in tour times up, two ot which were (.loubles. He practicallv won his own game in the fourth inning when he cracked out a two-bagger with three on bases.

Eddie Dyer started, and with decent support should have won. He fanned thirteen men, and allowed but three hits, one ot which was an infielil scratch. One of his three walks proved costly in the third when the inner works ot the Owl club cracked.
After this session, the>' fielded brilliantly, antl on two occasions started rallies, but the needed runs failed to materialize. In the fourth they filled the bases, but two runners were caught at the plate. Again in the seventh they were able to get three on, but could not score.

Palmer Melton let the Aggies tlovvn with six scat- tered hits, ami aided liy the wildness of Olsen and timely hitting by his team-mates, put over a 12 to 4 win.
Working with an eleven run lead, Melton eased up in the ninth and allowed three A. & M. scores. I'p to this time he hati allowed but three scattered hits, and the only run scored was unearned.
The Owls loosed a powerful barrage on the Farmer pitcher, and began the evening's entertainment in the second inning when they scored five runs after two were out.
The Aggies came back strong in the second game, and opened a batting attack which, coupled with eight Owl errors, scored nine runs while the Rice team could only make two.
The fifth and sixth innings brought disaster to the Owls, as the Aggies made seven runs in these two hectic sessions.
Dyer tanned eight, but passed three and gave up nine hits, two ot which were tor extra bases, one going for a home run with two on.

With the game seemingly lost, the Owls staged a phenomenal ninth inning rally, making five runs, and tving the score. The tie remainetl unbroken when darkness ended the game in the twelfth inning.
With a five run lead in the seventh. Coach Disch of Texas took out Ponstord, who had held Rice help- less, and sent in McCalla. He did all right until the beginning ot the ninth. The Owls batted around in this inning, Locke getting a home run with two on.
Dver finished the game tor Rice, tanning six and allowing one single in the three innings.

With Captain Hughes on the sick list, and with Melton ami Dyer still sore from the Te.xas game, the Bears calsommeil the ()vvls in two successive games.
In spite of' his sore arm and crippletl thumb, Melton let the Bears down with seven hits. His sLipport was nothing extra.

The second game was one of the best of the season. It developed into a pitching duel between Dyer and Tanner, with the latter haxing the better end of it, shutting the Owls out m a no hit game.
The Owls' tlefense was good, but they were oft in their batting. Dver allowed five hits.

The Slime liasehall squad doesn't get the p\ihlicit\' that the tciotlnill squad does, and consequently everyone is not sure of its existence, but there was one, and it was a good one. Made up ot Irvine, Bloxsom, Asbury, Moore, Hill, Hale, Speer, I<'isher, Lindsey, Wiltord, King, DaCamara, and coached by Hathorne and Nicholas, there was some doubt at times as to whether or not it was better than the regular squad.
It tlul not have a regular schcilule arranged, but was combined with the first squad in the pre-season practice games, and worked out with them in the after- noons, serving as a second team.
The Green Owls, or Owlets, as they were variously known, played three games as a Freshman team. Sam Houston Normal beat them in two good games, m which Hale, Wilford, and Irvine made promising showings. The third was with St. Thomas .Academy, a prep school which usually has good athletic teams. The Slimes won eight to nothing, disj^laying excellent team work and a goml knowledge of inside baseball. Wilford and King did the pitch- ing for the Slimes, and the rest of the team rendered errorless supoort besides making six hits.
The '22 freshman squad has supplied some stars to the '23 Owl team, who

The Fable of the Frogs
In the days of old, when college students were men of opinions, when free thought and free actions were rife, there existed in a tar and Southern clime, a school for the advancement ot Letters, Science, and Art. There came a time, as there will come times, when certain of the students ot this school grew tired ot the carefree existence and easy fellowship, anci because they could wear Brooks Models and (jolfing Bloomers to classes, set themselves up as the arbiters ot affairs and posed as the foremost denizens of its halls. Thev were wont to participate to an unusual extent in the athletic contests, m the management of the publications, and in the social activities of the place.
The day came, as it always does, when certain ot the commoners felt that these self-appointed aristocrats were robbing them ot their inalienable rights. So, forsooth, they stirred up rebellion against them and their domination of affairs. To clothe their rebellion in holy garments, they appropriated a word of much potency in those da\s. They spoke long and well ot a mvthical quantit\' called 'Democracy.' They lauded the idea ot freedom and equalit\ amont; all men.
In the days of old, when the Frogs were all at liberty in the lakes and had ttrnwn \vcar\ nf following everyone his own devices, they assembled one d.i\- together and with no little clamor petitioned Jupiter to let them have a king to keep them in better order, and to make them lead honester lives. Jupiter, knowing the vanit\- of their hearts, smiled at their request ami threw down a log into the lake, which b>' the splash and commotion it made, set the whole conimunit}' into the greatest terror .md amazement. The>' rushed under the water and into the mud, and dared not come within ten leaps' length of the spot where it la>-. .A.t length, one of the Frogs bolder than the rest ventured to pop his head above the water, and take a surve\" of their new king at a respectful distance. PresentU-, when the\" perceived the log lie stock still, others began to swim up to it and around it, till by degrees, growing bolder and bolder, thev at last leaped upon it, and treated it with the greatest contempt. Dissatisfied with so tame a ruler, the\* forth- with petitioned Jupiter a second time for another and more active king; upon which he sent them a Stork, who no sooner arrived among them than he began laying hold of them and devourint; them one by one as fast as he could, and it was in vain that they endeavored to escape him. Then they sent Mercury with a private message to Jupiter, beseeching him that he should take pitv on them once more; but Jupiter replied that they were onl\- sufl^ering the punishment due to their tolly and that another time they would learn to let well enough alone and not be dissatisfied with their natural condition.
And SO this school, in its ancient and archaic manner, chose as their ruler one James Hearne Hughes, of the town of Sherman, to govern them under the principles ot equality and freedom. Came the time, as it does with all pedagogues when raised to power, that the democracy changed to autocracy and much was the moaning thereunto. Proceeded this humble and devout ruler to consume the substance of his minions. He appointed himself, by various subterfuges and through methods called in those days underhand, to the managership of the Annual, to the managership of the Weekly, to an influence on the \Veekl\-, the position of Censor for News, an omnipotency of unheard of dimensions.

Vague memories ot the Jew of Malta, Shylock, and Croesus floated across the minds of the Diilcy cast as Tannic Lee Oliphint, Janice Thibodeaux, and Meriel Sherwood made their classic remarks.
From Miss Oliphint came the original suggestion that, since the cast had worked taithtully tor si.x weeks, the Y. \^'. C. A. had decided nut to cunipel them to buy their hooks, but in case they wanted to keep them, the\' might be had at cost.
Janice remarks, as Mf. Forbes cuts a cigar in two m order to have a stub m his mouth after the lapse ot thirty minutes during which Mr. Leach makes his speech, "les. Alec, \ou can use halt ot it tonight and the other halt tomorrow night."
Meriel, dear, remarked to two members ot the cast, "Now, Mr. J. 1. Camp- bell and Mr. Robb Winsborough, we have bought these properties trom Schwartz's on credit, and they cost two hundred dollars. It you break any ot them, you can just pay for them yourselves."
My God, — what gratitude!

A Tlciifor Justice
Even in the midst of hilarity, we should strive to be just to everyone; accordingly, we desire to make here a serious appeal tor a justice which has in the past been too flagrantly violated.
Is it just to the monkey to accuse him, without giving him a hearing in the matter, o\ being a relative ot some of us? We proudly claim kinship with him, and give him no opportunity to vindicate himself, or to present his views on the subject. We feel that we must voice a protest against such outrageous treat- ment of the monkey, and ask, as a simple matter of right and wrong, is it fair t<j any self-respecting hand- some monkey to be accused ot being a relative of Messrs. Abbey anti Fitch? Is it fair to any tunny, humorous monkey to be accused ot being a relative ot Messrs. Morris and Winsborough? And finally, is it fair to any intelligent nionkev to be accused of being a relative of Messrs. Ritter and McLaughlin?
\\ e feel that, to be fair to the monkey, we should not, without his assent, link his ancestry with that of the gentlemen meiitioneil, and moreo\er, are con- fident in the belief that few monkevs will ever gi\e voice to such assent.

"In the spring a young man's tancv lighth' turns to thoughts of love," were the immortal wortls uttered hy Tennyson — or was it Horatio Alger?
It seems rather late m the season tor the Cdiii piuiile to try to show where such a great man might ha\e been wrong, but selt-eviiient tacts cause it to be thus. Dumb Dub has lost his title of the Boy Lover and now the boy who runs the Bugs Lab reigns supreme in his stead. Day after day, week atter week anil ad infinitum we are torceti to view his puerile love-making and with much disgust to watch his childish affections perpe- trated upon the sweet young thing from up in the pine\' woods. As there are exceptions to every rule, we are forced to admit that Tennyson was wrong, because this imbecile's thoughts turn constantly to love — be it winter, spring, or what not.
We wonder if the joke printed in the Thresher about the remark made by the Chem. Assistant to another of the sweet young things can in any way apph' t(.) this case. All who do not think it will, will signify by raising their left hainis aiui will receive a last year's straw hat as a gift of appreciation from the P'.ditor.
This example of school spirit who is so wrapped up in his work that he doesn't have time to see any of the basketball games, yet spends hours cooing sweet nothings into his beloved's ear, while we sit and view sights which woulci make us blush, even when seen m the parlor with the shades lowered and the lamp burning low.
We see, after looking up his record, that we will be forced to endure such indoor sports for two years at the least, so we now start praying in those beautiful words of Hic Jacet, the great Swedish poet,
"Oh, Father Tihur, to -ivhom the Romans prav, "CoDie and take this D — XED pest aznav."

Oh! Horrors^ Horace^ the Horror scope!
\'anity is unable to make an unpreiudiced and unbiased decision as to her most ornery honorees in view ot the exceedingly close and heated race among a large number ot candidates tor this exalted position. So, because ot the atore- mentioned vast number ot starters m the popularity hamlicap, the places will be awarded in alphabetical order.
Enter Miss Beniamina Duggan, Doc .Alteiiberg's beautitul and accomplished stenographer, with a radiant smile, looking tor all the world like a three-headed cat in a creamery. She comes down stage right and seizes all the eligible males before Fred W. Johnson, Head Bouncer ot the Bugs Lab, can drag her back to her menial tasks. This charming lass is also sponsor ot the Scullions, the Y. M. C. A., the home tor destitute wnA tlecrepit cats, and Toail Ritter's International Discussion Group.
Next in alphabetical order come the celebrated Zt)ok twins. Is the tcmalc ot the species more deadly than the male? The inveterate .Arthur, he ot the inexhaustible jaw-bone, excites a contempt that is only rivaled by a wonder as to why they let it live.
No! Absence ot intelligence is no excuse! .Alexander's Saturday' night libations are on the same level with a live year old boy smoking shucks behind the barn. How mean he must teel!
In the same intellectual category one might run across the marvelous physique ot Reginald (Sheik) Bicktord, the temperamental though "divine Sarah" of Rice's illegitimate stage; or that eminent scientist, Charles Emmett Elliott who is the discoverer and chief evidence ot the Theory ot Evolution.
It IS with glee that \'anity chronicles the advent and soiourn ot the incom- parable superiority complex, D. T. McLaughlin of Brenham, Texas, via New York. This subtle youth has lightened the tedium ot many of our duller hours with his irresponsible chatter. Mr. McLaughlin also directs plays. How and Why did he cast Daley ^ (irape Nuts! Yes, several of them.
Now for Juliet. Isn't it depressing how the Powerful Katrinka always swoops down on a brace of defenseless bovs about one-third the size ot her shadow at high noon un a cloudy dav?
"Scrappy" Moore, he ot the Lion Heart and Battling Tennis Racket. We can't think ot any words weak enough to characterize it.
The democratic triumphs ot Varsity Jim were brought t<i a fitting clima.x: with the shameful and bald-faced manipulation of the .Amendment election of March 3. Since this slightly tarnished scion of Imperishable Democracy has become an intangible liability to Toad Ritter's Peace Conference every Wednesday night, the entire student body has felt the loss of single track Jim's guiding star. You hadn't noticed it? Curiously enough, neither had we.
Rice was cursed during the past year by space seekers in our weekly ad sheet w h(i ha\c broken out as inevitably as a pestilence. These unbalanced persons are obsessed with a desire to write something. They don't understand what it's all about, so they turn their childish intellects towards destruction. Fair Hazel had the good judgment to subside after her first effusion. George Williams' feeble attempts at humor have occasionally (the occasion on which they appeared) left us with a dark brown taste. This futile malcontent's optimism reeks of the cemetery.
The sometime Hon. F.. ( ). Arnold, however, is incorrigible. Time and again he has burst forth with his asinine \erbosity, noising it abroad without regard for the effects of his damaging misrepresentations. But what cares he for the fair name of Rice when he can get twenty cents an inch for it?
G. C. Francisco and Mary MacKenzie on the other hand cause us to doubt the real necessity for newspapers — though of course they don't carry ails.
The Hinkley-Sewell (un-Ltd.) gripers de lu.xe, have repeatedly thrust their unwelcome mouthings upon everyone within shouting distance. The magnan- imous Bertram devoutly thanks God, as he says his 'Now I Lay Me ,' that
he IS not as other men — ditto, so do we. Little Piggie shows up worst when he is talking, i. e., Griping. It he would keep his mouth shut he would look almost human. Piggie with his mouth shut? Can you feature that? We refuse to mention B. O. Burch in this connection — he even gripes at the food.
Vanitv wishes to comment on that " 1-Did-lt-Myself" look of Noel Willis of Hvdro, Oklahoma, and of Frank Goss, the little flannel-mouthed tin Jesus of the Faculty Table statt. You boys stay in there, you will make your mark when you grow up, Mike Cienora needs men.
Nation-wide interest has been aroused in the daring exploits of Rice's own in the First Annual Gum Chewer's Derby. Among entrance qualifications, able entrants were required to have at least two of their own teeth (exception was made in the case of Small Dot Hunt). \n the big race, contestants took the barrier at catch weights. Sybil Denniston was disqualified at the post for biting. The bell clangs aiul Ample ^Lu•y Trammel takes the lead for the first carton. The entries from the MacKenzie stables were left at the post, but joined in on the second lap — the pack was now in full cry. The field was closely bunched, but the 6-th lap saw the Trammel colors leatiing by a fifth of a package. She had the race in her teeth, only to be disqualified for swallowing. The boom of the cannon for the last lap was barely audible above the machme-gun-hke popping of the champing, pawing, contestants. Society was chagrined to see the official dark horse in the form of Little Allie Autry win by a good neck. Second and third places were awarded to Sloppy Mitchell aiul Dot Hunt, respectfully.

Continuing in alphabetical order, ^'anity approaches on hended knee the soft mannered and iovial youngster, George Morrison, who was foisted upon us In- the Class ot '22. See his illustrated feature, Fjicniics .// Fifst Si-^/it mni How To Keep Them. Crude, but efficient, eh, Cieorgie?
Boy Wilfonl is a pitiable shade in our recollection. We find there are iust three things he likes; (I) Jeremiah, (2) Marion, (■;) Wilford. Say, Desolate Dutchv, wh\ not trv taking a correspondence course m miiiLling your own business:
\'anitv with great relish pounces upon the name of one Wallace Lhl, the perpetual scuurge of the Bugs Lab. Hope was held for several seasons that he might wake up, but it's no use, he's dead from the waist down and asleep from the waist up.
\'anity wonders who gets cheated when an assortment of Gold Bricks and Gold Diggers, such as those which constitute the horbes, Russell, Bijyd, and Cohen, gang assembles.
Rumors have come to us that Robb M. Wmsborough has risen abo\-e the foul hall. Hat tire, and total loss stage. It souiuls like political propaganda, but we hope it's true.
Words, Words, Words! ()h, fur a mill-stone heavy enough to sink Lytton Wells and Janice Thibodeau.x and their senseless gibberings in the brackish waters of the Dead Seal
We are thankful that the F.ngineenng courses take up so much time with Labs, griping, aiul iither exercises that these unique specimens cannot mingle with the stiuient bndy. hrom the E^ngineers that we have hail the misfortune to come in contact with — namely, T. E. Luccke, ALircus .Acheson, and Stuart Guizendanner, we wish to express our deep and e\'erlasting gratitude to Profs. Pounds, Humphrey, Howell, and Buddie Ryon for services rendered.
Vanity promised to G. C. Francisco, the rosy cheeked infant with the broad- casting voice, antl famous .Alpine Yodeller fmni the heights of East Hall, a full page, but we must keep the book clean. This is not the Owl.
If your name has been mentioned in this section and your feelings have not been hurt, we are sorry, our purpose has not been achieved. We have been as severe as it is possible to be without descendina to common vulgarity, and we hope that you are intelligent enough to realize that each name here chronicled was consideretl with the utmost contempt.

Well, here it is. If you don't like it because it's late, please remember that it takes a year to get out a year book; that this Campanile had tnur editors before it got started; that it was six months late in gettmg under way; antl that owing to this delay valuable material was lost, which made things worse.
We wish to thank Miss Bessie Smith, who stayed in Houston tor a month after school was out to get up the snap shfit pages; Jack Glenn, who spent time in helping with these and with the drawing of cartoons; George Williams, who, unsolicited and as a bolt from the blue, turned in copiy of the sort that makes tears of gratitude come into an editor's eyes; to Ralph .Anderson (Andy) ot the Houslo>i Post, for his write-up of the vear in sports; and to Ed Rider ot the Houston Prrss tor his review of the basketball season.
We are sure that the art work dijiie by Miss Ruth ^ dung is withtjut equal in an\- ot the Campaiules. Not (inl\ have her color plates been consistently good, bat she has carried nut her motif 111 all of the subdivision plates. ( )n one point, if tor no other reason, she deserves the blessings of the gods — she finished her work on time.
On another side ot Campanile work should be mentioned a man who, although he is ot very great ser\ice to Business Mana- gers, rarely is mentioned — Mr. Beraud. In the suggesting of possible advertisers, and in the actual soliciting ot advertising, he has been ot inestimable ser\ice to the Business Manager.
We offer no apologies, nor are we going into a tirade against certain staff members whose actions were as the proverbial pancake's, for we feel that in view of the circumstances encoun- tered, the book coukl not have been brought out any sooner. Some feelings will be hurt, no doubt, and a great many will be disappointed; it you tee! that something has been left out, why that's what we run the blank fl\ leaves tor.
We conclude in the style of Ben Jonson; "Like it or not, bv God it's aood!"
