Takes Charge
The annual slime "shirt-tail' 'parade
will be staged tonight at 7:30, accord-
ing to George Brindley, president of
the sophomores and yell leader pro-
tem.
Brindley was appointed in charge
of making all arrangements for the
parade by the Rally Club Monday
night.
AH slimes will meet at the dormi-
tories at 7 o'clock tonight where they
will be properly dressed by the critical
sophomores. With as few clothes as
the laws allows, the conspicuous slimes

and Council Posts Up
for Vote
Six officers in student organizations
will ba elected in the special election
called by the Student's Association for
Monday, October 2, from 8 to 1 o'clock
in the sally-port, according to Bob
Schulze, president of the Student's
Association.
The vacancies were caused by the
failure of students to return this year,
and to the necessity of others to spend
.more time on their studes.
Petitions with twenty-five signa-
tures must be in the hands of the pres-
ident by 1 p. m. Thursday, September
28, in order that a candidate be eligi-
ble to run for the office.
All students, except the freshmen,
will be eligible to vote in the elections
since the blanket tax, the official poll
tax, is compulsory.'
The positions to be filled are: one
each on the Honor Council and Stu-
dent Council; assistant editors for The
Thresher, and The Carrfphnile; assist-
ant business manager of the Owl; and
head yell leader.
George Brindley was appointed yell
leader by the Student's Association
until the election of October 2. His
assistants are Bill Frances and George
Allen. They will make their first pub-
lic appearance on Friday night at the
Pep Parade.
One person is prohibited from hold-
ing more than one office of any na-
ture, at the same time, at the Rice In-
stitute, according to a bill passed re-
cently by the Student's Council, Bob
Shulze, president, saicT.
Seniors Urged to
Order Rings Now
Seniors were urged to turn in their
orders for rings immediately.
The deadline for taking orders for the
firsh shipment of rings will be Octo-
ber 4.
The first order will be taken in the
Sallyport by the ring committee. Fol-
lowing orders will be taken In the
Co-op at an additional cost of 25c per
order to cover handling expenses.
A deposit of $5 is required for each
order, the remaining sum to be paid
when the ring is delivered.
Rings are available In 8, 10 and 12
charge for rings weighing under 8
pennyweight. The senior has a choice
of 10K, 14K, and 18K gold, the price
ranging proportionately higher as the.
gold content.
Rings can be had in yellow, green
or white gold in any karat gold. Due
to the recent 'Presidencial' degree,
gold has risen in price. This affects
the price of the rings slightly.
Starting early for a big year, the
Rice Band has rehearsed daily this
week, and will be heard tonight in the
^|Hr)
aiuaiMtu . Mk<
ploys T. A. & I. All men interested
are invited to play with the band at
this game. Uniforms will not be worn.
The band is planning big things for
this year, including trips to L. S. U.,
Texas U„ and T C U.; new uniforms
for a picked band of sixty men, and
new music, including more popular
pieces.
Having concentrated at first on mu-
sic practice, the band begins today,
practice of drills and formations to be
used at Baton Rouge next Saturday,
at the L. S. U.-Rice game, Practices
will be held this evening and each day
next week at South Hall, 4:45 p. m.
All men wishing to try out should re-
port at once and be present at every
rehearsal.
The style of the new uniforms, to be
announced later, will be different from
that of those in use now. They will
be worn for the first time at the Tex-
as game at Austin, October 28. Pres-
ent uniforms will be used until then.
Tile band will also us*e new forma-
tions in marching and at football
games. New marches and more music
of popular type will be played.
Mary Tomly Squyres, cute little
Band Sweetheart who won the hearts
of everyone last year with her sing-
ing and dancing, will again accompany
the band this fall.
Officers in chargo of the band this
year are: Lee Chatham, Director, Hor-
ace Fairbrother, Drum Major, Richard
Shannon, President, Nolan Barrick,
Vice President, Arthur Wood, Libra-
rian. and William Gibson, Manager.

Freshman Day
On Campus
Is Wild Sight
O
Slimesses Come to School
In Full Dress
Costume
One of the wildest sights ever to
grace a Rice campus made its appear-
ance this morning as hundreds of
slimes and slimeses in every form of
dress and undress arrived.
Girls—pretty girls—girls not so pret-
ty—timid girls—all looked alike in the
amazing costumes designed by enter-
prising sophomore co-eds. They looked
terrible with a black stocking on each
head, thoroughly covering all hair, a
man's shirt, open at the neck with
large sleeves, baggy bloomers below
the knee and over this a sleeveless,
backless, beltless, short dress, a tennis
shoe, minus ties, on the right foot, and
a sock and evening slipper oh the left,
they were put through their paces.
Each had a cup and bucket, shoe
polish, paste and brush in hand and all
were kept busy either shining the
Sallyport or some one's shoes. Though
they came without make-up this was
soon remedied by their tormentors
who put everything under the sun on
their faces. ■ ; _ ( ■

such a set idea though most of them
appeared in the traditional outfit.
There were many, however, who wore
positively entrancing costumes, .con-
sisting of .{taper, dresses, corsets, mat-.
treSses, burlap, etc., and before long
most of them had lost their shirts;
While their tormentors kept 1hem busy,
i All newcomers not in costume have
! besn threatened with dire punishment
! by these sophomores.
School President ?ells Freshmen

a better, in the matriculation address

Margery Worrall, former O. W L. S.

We swore about two months ago
that we'd never write another line for
The Thresher right after our private
stocks took such a nosedive, but since
yours truly finally got a job yesterday
and Pete Maniscalco, the editor ,was
pulling his hair about eight o'clock
last night we will do it this time. (In-
cidentally, he gave us a theater pass,
too. As long as that keeps up, well,
we can't tell, we may run along in-
definitely.)

Something is wrong with those fresh-
men. The Institute must have got a
bunch of smart ones, cause they cer-
tainly didn't show any life. Offhand
we'd say about ten or twelve of the
girls aren't sophisticated, and outside
of the slime P. E. s., only about twenty
of the boys appear to show any signs
of "he-man" about them.
-f + +
Did you notice how original the in-
itiation ceremonies were ? ? ? After
a careful study we came to the con-
clusion that this year's sophs took the
best rules and styles of the past three
years and combined them for this year.
Someone must have expounded that
theory of cycles to the second year
kids.
We understand that the new dean
DEAN WEISER, thinks all of that stuff
is tom-foolery. Yeli, that's what
everyone else seems to think and that's
the reason the campus is so dead. Well
it may be, but somehow young Amer-
icans just don't have any use for a fel-
low-student that can't take a little
humor mixed in with the serious side
of life.

According to advance dope, MARY
GRAY ADAMS and MORDINE MUM-
MERT were going to knock the boys
for a loop at the Institute this year.
Well, it seems that a couple of other
sliinesses stole the San Jacinto duo's
thunder. We refer to BERNICE BROG-
DON and DOROTHY WEISER. We'll
venture the prediction that any one of

The Psychology department, has a
new long paper kymograph driven by
£.h electric motor. The drums are,
driven and the paper is pulled around
while various devices make marks on
the sheet. The record made is ten
feet long.
The Physics Department of Rice has
bought a large 25 K. W. generator to
give current for two magnitising coils.
Dr. Mott-Smith will Use it in his cos-
mic ray research. The colls, some of
the largest which have ever been made
for this kind of work, are 400 lbs, each
and mostly of copper. It is expected
to produce a magnetic feld of 3,000
graus.
The Engineering Department has ac-
quired a unit heater and fan. There
is a popular device for quickly heating
air put up in the annex for test pur-
poses. It blows air over a steam ra-
diator. A number of instruments have
been repaired also during the summer,
