Texas Gamma, the Rice chapter
of Tau Beta, Pi, the national hon-
orary engineering fraternity, elect-
ed eeven new members on Thursday,
September 14. These members are:
Alan Chapman, Tom Cox, Bill Gar-
rett, Billy Gerhardt, P. J. Lewis
Hershell Rich, and Victor Snow.
All these men are junior engi-
neers^ in the upper eights of their
class, who are eligible for degrees
at Rice. The schedule requirements,
however, is not the only one that
has to be met. Although it is the
primary requirement, there are oth-

interest, and personal appearance.
The new members will be initiat-
ed early in October, and it is hoped
that a banquet can be given in their
honor soon aftet initiantion.

Think all you speak; but speak not
all you think:
Thoughts are your own; your words
are so no more.
—Henry Delaune
Words are not always the auxili-
aries of Truth. The spirit, and not
the letter, performs the vital func-
tions of Truth and Love.
—Mary Baker Eddy
On Tuesday night September 19,
friends and interested acquaintan-
ces of Celeste McCullough gathered
at the Baptist Temple on 20th and
Rutland Streets to hear her in con-
cert. Her program was such as to
demand the consummate skill of the
most accomplished artist and she
did it justice. As for an amateur
listener's opinion, I would say that
she seemed most at home playing
Bach's Italian Concerto, and seemed
not quite to have grasped the De-
libe Naila Waltz that immediately
followed it, though the latter quite
possibly may be attributed to fa-
tigue after the exhausting "Presto
giojoso" which csoncluded the con-
cera.
Suffice it to say there was no
faltering, and that an accomplished
and gifted artist was performing.
The program is admirable: Brahms'
Rhapsody in G minor, Opus 79, No.
2; Bach's Concerto in the Italian
Style; Delibes Naila Waltz; Cho-
pin's Revolutionary Etude, and
Scherzo from the Sonata in B Flat
Minor.
After the intermission she played
Beethoven's Appassionata Sonata
Gould's Pavanne (thoughly enjoya-
ble), Debussey's Voiles, and Orem's
American Indian Rhapsody which
Celeste explained in a short talk
was composed using a group of sev-
en Indian dances.
Celeste is to matriculate at Ober-
lin College in November for further
musical studies. She cannot but have
the greatest success because she has
the requisite charm, talent and pas-
sion for details.

We in'fer the spirit of the nation
in great measure from the language,
which is a sort' of monument to
which each forcible individual in a
course of many hundred years has
contributed a stone.
—Emerson
Language is the only instrument
of science, and words are but the
signs of ideas.
—Samuel Johnson

thur Stehenck, a V-12 studenffrom
Los Angeles but formerly of Texas
A&M, presented a song which de-
finitely should go places, '^Someday s
Never Comes For Me." It was inost
ably introduced by George "Cow-
boy" Marsten with his trumpet and •
the tenor voice of "Susie" Jaynes.
The audience found that Scherck's
composition will be hard to forget. .
Machia, a self assured performer,
added a dash of spice to proceedings
by introducing a ^nondescript little
game played with life-savers passed
