At ibis period of the year you

The work of the Alumni Assou

The bettering of our own

our membership.
Diligent and unremitting at.
tent Ion to the furtherance of
our own endowment campaign.
An active interest in and un-
qualified support of Rice's pro-
gram to put her athletics upon

of her Southwest Conference
rivals.
A campaign of education, par-
ticularly lit the City or Houston,
to Impress upon the public gen-

Fred f|j®fse. President

Dr. 11. A. Scott
cat Education Department at Rice,
gave an extremely entertaining talk
on girls' athletics at a meeting of
the Tennis Clue last Tuesday. He
discussed the interest urn! the social
necessity the modern girl finds in
taking part in all fields of sports.
Dr. Scott 'did not believe, how-
ever, that It. was desirable for girls
to enter Into championship compe-
tition with men, and to go In for
breaking records, but that they should
rather stick to the social nnd recre-
ational side of athletics.
Plans are almost completed for
