GALVESTON AND HOUSTON
The Board of Regents of the University
of Texas met last week-end in Houston and
Galveston. This writer had a late start and
missed out on the Houston activities, in-
cluding attendance at the annual Chamber
of Commerce dinner to hear Gen. Ike
Eisenhower.
Regents said that the mass meeting was
amazing—15,400 to hear the general. It
was the fourth time that the Houston audi-
torium had been packed since erection. A
dinner for around 2,000 preceded the
Eisenhower address.
Leaving Amarillo late Wednesday night
By train, this writer expected to catch
a plane from Dallas to Houston, arriving
there by 9 a. m. But inclement weather
and plane repairs held up departure until
after 1 p. m. By the time the writer reach-
ed downtown Houston, the University
party had left for Galveston.
A representative of the dental branch
at Houston took this writer to Galveston
and he finally caught up with the Regents
and other University officials at a recep-
tion at the home of Dean and Mrs. C. D.
Leake.
Galveston was also excited as Eisenhow-
er had spoken Thursday noon at the Rot-
ary Club luncheon, which turned out to be
a joint civic meeting with all others who
could get in the pier dining room—about
1,800 persons.
Friday and Saturday were devoted to
routine business and also getting first hand
information about the Medical Branch
needs. Friday night the Galveston Cham-
ber of Commerce gave a dinner that was
as nice as has ever been given the Regents
any where.
The weather was unsettled all during
the trip. Houston had near two inches of
rain. The writer was afraid to attempt the
trip home by plane, riding with friends
to Houston to take the Burlington-Rock
Island streamliner to Dallas and then get-
ting on the Fort Worth & Denver milk
train to Claude.
Weather reports in Houston and Gal-
veston papers made one believe that the
plains was in the midst of a blizzard but
the weather Sunday had moderated con-
siderably.
It was pitiful in Houston to see the hun-
dreds of residents surrounded by water.
People could not get to their homes. There
must have been thousands more with solid
sheets of water on the lawns. Although the
Plains are noted for the level land, you
just haven’t seen anything until you’ve
seen Houston flooded.
The Regents had not met in Galveston
for possibly a year and one-half. It is al-
ways a pleasurer to visit Galveston and to
note the progress of the medical branch.
The University is receiving a hospital to
cost several million dollars through the
generosity of the Sealy & Smith Founda-
tion. Were not it for the gifts from this
foundation the Medical Branch would be
far behind where it is today.

ITS 100 H.P. V-8 ENGINE PURRS QUALITY
It’s an engine that’s as powerful as a herd of reindeer
—and as silent as the night before Christmas! Yes,
Ford offers you the only 100 h.p. engine—the only
V-8 engine—in the low-price field. Yet the 50 Ford,
with this engine, sells for less than most Sixes.
NEW ."HUSHED” RIDE, TOO!
Drive a ’50 Ford and you’ll notice quiet that whispers
quality. The powerful V-8 engine whispers while it
works. And doors, roof, and body panels are “sound
conditioned” against road noises. Even the 13-way
stronger "Lifeguard” Body adds to the quiet. But
drive it yourself and see why no other car delivers
so much for your money.
IT’S THE ONE FINE CAR
IN THE LOW-PRICE FIELD
With ford’s quality-car power, you get quality-car
"feel,” too! For Ford’s "Hydra-Coil” and "Para-Flex”
Springs make the bumps feel like they aren’t there—
arid Ford's "Mid Ship ’ Ride is as smooth as silk.
From its soft foam rubber front seat to its beautiful
baked-on-finish, Ford leads its field in quality.
