Fuchs Is Attending
School of Design
In Oakland, Calif.
The only representative from
Texas in one of the most progres
sivc art schools in the world is Kii
dolph Fuchs if the art department
of Teacher College, who is attend
ing the Mauhau- School of Design
in Oakland. Calif . this summer
This school is being held in Mills
College, one of the oldest colleges
mi the West Coast, to demonstrate
that a craftsman is an artist and
to stress the education of the eye.
A world-famous art school, the
Maiihatis was started in Germany
by Walter Gropius less than a
quarter of a century ago and has
already shown the world that in
dually and art can be combined
harmoniously For political rca
son.' the teachers in the Rauhaus
were forced to leave Germany in
1932, and since thai time they
have been in the I'nited States.
Moholy-Nogy, present director of
the school is almost as well known
in the art world a.- Roosevelt and
Garner in the political world. A-
a designer of commerce, his first
consideration is for the product
and not for an aesthetic belief lie
has produced films, published
books, and made a reputation as a
typographer Moholy-Nogy says
that the School of llesigll builds lip
its curriculum with tasks which d<>
not allow a comparison of the stu

cal education held a picnic at
Shady Shores, Lake Dallas, Wed-
nesday evening.
A picnic supper was served and
games were the diversion of the

foi the affair included I,ola Smith,
Vein Manire, and Helen Denman.
On the foods committee were Kath
leen I'lester, Jessie 1.* Wilkinson,
Kloise Savell, and Mary Peacock.
Merrick Advances
To Tennis Finals
By Downing Miller
Ksles Merrick advanced to the
finals in the men's intramural ten
ills singles this week against Her
bell Millei In the semifinals Mei
lick downed Davis in a hard-fought
match fl-3, I rt, and li I. Davis
made a strong bid, but (tie smooth,
precision shots of Merrick were
too much for him.
In his semi-final match Miller
won over Grubbs easily in two
straight sets 15-1, ti-1.
adult an honest sincerity of emo-
tion, and truthfulness of ohserva
tion fantasy, and creativenea*. In
the school personality and feeling
arc as important now in the work
of an artist as ever
Roth Moholy-Nogy and Robert
Wolff, an eminent sculptor and
painter who teaches in the school,
have been closely associated with
Fuchs. He has been taking courses
in wood and metal, textiles, color, i
light, and modeling.
Ho hum tin

comes out with a lot of mtilarky
about how badly Int ramural-di-
reetoi Homer Pegram needs en-
tries in his very attractive pro
gram of events.
We even go so far at' to point
■lit that such participation would
providi wholesome relaxation from
tin drudgery of school life, and
that it would restore that school
ln>\ "tigger" to those of you who
haven't -eon the ends of youi toes
foi the past five years.
\iiil what happens? Is there such
a concerted rush to sign up for
ihi- i event« that certain of the
weaker personalities get crushed
in the mad scramble" Well, hardly.
One lonely entrant in the ping
pong title chase a very good per-
former. we'll grant you, in the
person of Wesley Yarhro, but Wes
i not interested in taking the
crown without opposition All Wes-
lev and Homer Pcgram want is
more entries the sky's the limit,
but even one would be Welcome
Conic on, fellers, you i"ay be just
,111c man to trim young Wesley for
1 the championship.
And then, look at what happened
in the handball event. Pegram pre
pared a nice long sheet with plenty
I of blanks foi potential champs to
>ign then monikers on and only
three names were scrawled at the
top of the big rambling sheet
it was such a lonesome sight that
we shed a metaphorical tear and
even contemplated making our
ina-k on one of the blanks but
the memory of Spotlite's advice to
the uvoirdunois boys last week re-
strained us.
Only four men signed up for
the horse shoe pitching tournament,
but Pegram decided to let them go
ahead and battle it out for the
championship. A series of round
robin pairings have been made, in
which Paul Zarufonctis, Fd din-
gen, Robert Clifton, and W. T.
Head will toss against each other
until only one remains.
With the rains over at least

Harris Holds Aces
Paul Vance of the Rounders
threw ■ four-hit pitching perform-
ance into the collective faces of
Roy Wood's Rebels laat Tuesday
night and the previoualy unde-
feated winners of the first half
toppled to the ground.
Under norma) circumstances the
Rebels might have done better than
absorb a 7 to 2 defeat.
A two man shortage of players,
spots of lifeless Rchel play, and
an opponent that just didn't come
out to the field to beaten all had
plenty to do with the defeat of
a team thai has ripped every other
hunch in the summer intramural
softhall league
Harris Pitches
Chilton 1 and the Runts jumped
into an early lead in the recond
half play alongside the Rounders
when little Jack Harris limited
the Aces to a pair of hits and
scored the only run of the con-
test in a thrilling I to 0 game.
Chilton 1 staved off a 12-run
thrust made by their brother t«'am,
Chilton II, in the last inning to
i take a 17 IS decision. Roth tilts
were played Tuesday night.
Rain and continued wet grounds
! stopped all softhall play last week
However, under Manager Pegram's
present plans the second round
robin should be completed by next
Wednesday night, with the play-off
of the two winners following as
soon as possible.
Heene "Beans" Them
Woodie Reene, playing at first
base, hit in the first inning as he
slapped out three safeties to ac
count for almost a third of the
i ten blows that his team collected
off the hurling of Walter Mitchell.
Catcher Read and outfielder Alva
Montgomery connected for circuit
clouts for the Rounders.
.lack Cox, in centerfield for the
Rebels, collected two of his team's
four blows, while O'Neal and
! Ricks were running across two
' tallies.
Jack Harris slammed out a three-
! base hit in the first ining as he
i led off for the Runts, and scored
when the Ace first sucker juggled
the throw in from the outfield for
Ui" only run of the Ace-Runt game,
l-et Aces Down
He limited the Aces to two blows 1
and gave up only one base on halls
while his mates ware .
hits off the cotwMned ,
fort* of Killian and
Pcnton was behind Jte plate far
the loaera and Dove did the re-
ceiving for the Rnnta.
Fuel Savage's Natives jumped
right back into the win column
following their 7 to 6 low to the
Aces in the only conteat unreeled
last week when they outabtgBad
the Chilton II ten 10 to 9. The
Natives ran up 17 runs in thair
half of the firat stanaa. Pour Chit-
on errors and home runs by Mc-
Farland und Savage figured in
the slaughter of Pitcher Chndwell.
Rose Pitches
Cecil Rowe pitched aix-hit ball
for the Natives, hut four baaea on
balls and two iniaplays helped to
account for the !l Chilton marker*.
The loaers then camc beck to
play another just as wild hut a
little closer game as they dropped
their second fray of the night to
Chilton I 17 to <3. The winners
opened the first inning scoring one
, run and built up a big margin
i that staved off Chilton M's big
12-run sixth inning.

temporarily, the second half of the
round robin softlmll tournament
got back into swinir this week
Probably the most importan. game
of the week was reeled off Tuesday
night, when with a resounding
crash comparable only to that of
the downfall of the Yankees the
hitherto undefeated Rebels fell bi
fore the four-hit hurling of big
Paul Vance of the hustling Round
ers The Rebels were 'orced to play
the game two men short handed
due to the failure of some of
their regulars to show up, but still
the remaining eight Rebels were
not hitting with the usual Rebel
guato and Vance gets credit foi
an excellent job of twirling and
his rounder mates must be given
the nod for their excellent support.
In another game Tuesday night,
little Jack Harris, the runt of the
Runts' team, dished up a two-hit
affair for the Aces to sink their
leeth into. The Aces, who were run
ners-up in the first round play,
have gotten off to a belated start
in the second half with two straight
set-hacks. Beside., the loss to the
Runts, the Aces fell before the
slugging Rebels Wednesday night
11-7.
Kstcs Merrick advanced to the
finals this week in the men's tennis
singles by downing Davis rt-.'l, 4-H,
and 6-1. His finals opponent will
he Herbert Miller, who downed
Urubbs in the semifinals in straight
seti, 8-1, 6-1.
Blair, and Martin learned to win
the -IMI fool medley relay and
Hastings, Blair, Martin, and (.ale
won the 400-foot free style relay.
