High School Girl Describes Knife - Point Kidnapping By The Associated Press SULTAN, Wash. — A stocky, blonde teen-age girl described Wednesday how a shabbily dressed man kidnaped her at knife-point as she prepared to leave for school and held her for 90 minutes be fore she escaped. Her banker father received a telephoned demand for $25,000 ransom and deposited $2,000 of it in a telephone booth at a service station. It never was picked up. FBI agents, sheriff’s officers and police had found no trace of the kidnaper. The girl, Hazel Irene Oelrich, 17, was not harmed. She said she fled in the kidnap car after her abductor left her alone in it. The high school senior, wearing a brown skirt, flat-heeled shoes and a blue sweater, said she was at home alone when the middle- aged, graying man knocked at the door. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Oelrich, had left a few minutes Officer Election, Christmas Party Top ASCE Meeting The J. T. L. McNew Student Chapter of The American Society of Civil Engineers had its annual election of officers last week in the Civil Engineering Building Lecture Room. The new officers are: Carl Raba, president; Ray Wilshire, vice- president; Ronald Fix, secretary; John Hudson, treasurer; Stanley Hruska, program chairman, and Phil Evans, parliamentarian. The election was followed by the annual Christmas Party, whicji was highlighted by an address by Dr. S-. R. Wright, Head of the Department of Civil Engineering. After a short message from Wright, musical entertainment was provided by members of the Society. The chapter had 126 members present for the proceed ings. earlier for the Sultan branch of the First National Bank of Everett, where they both work. Oelrich is manager of the branch in this community of 821 populatiop, 30 miles east of Everett. The man asked for her father, Hazel said, and she told him her father had left. Then the man asked if he could leave a note. She went to get a piece of paper and he followed her. “Then he said he would leave something with me and reached inside his jacket,” she said. “He pulled out a hunting knife about 6 inches long and told me to come with him.” They got into an old green two- door car. “He forced me to lie on the floor until we were outside the Sultan town limits,” the girl said. 42 Initiated Into Engineering Society The Texas Delta Chapter of Tau Beta Pi, national engineering honor society, held its fall initiation Mon day night in the Memorial Student Center.

Ag Council Convocation Slated Mar. 6 The third meeting of the A&M Student Agricultural Council was held at 7:30 p.m. Monday in the Herman Heep Building. A general business meeting opened the session, with reports from committeemen and officers. Anton Coy, chairman of the Agri culture Convocation Committee, in formed the Council the date for the 1960-61 convocation has been set at March 6, 1961, in the MSC Ballroom. Topic for the convocation is “What to Expect in the Field of Agriculture During the Coming Administration.” The speaker for the event has not yet been con firmed. Following the reports, Dr. R. C. Potts gave a short discussion con cerning the college name change, DfcfRSODSN TiNe ArIs In which Lucky Strike’s gift to the arts selects “The World’s Greatest Masterpieces” and reveals all-in fact, more than all—that is known about each. Early Rembrandt: That Rembrandt was born a genius is conclusively proven by this little-known masterpiece. This, his first known painting, astounded critics and made the name Billy Rembrandt fa mous throughout Europe. Believe it or not, Rembrandt created this master piece when he was two years old! jugust [TTTVXTT 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 910111213 14 15 16 17 IS 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 2$ 29 30 31 The Thinker: What is The Thinker think-’ ing?This has been as bafflingto scholars as the riddle of the sphinx and "Who's on first?" But now it can be revealed that this statue is actually a Roman warrior who had been asked, "Remem ber how great cigarettes used to taste?" When he failed to answer, "Luckies still do," he was turned to stone. Whistlers' Mother: This painting, by an unknown artist, depicts the housemother of a college sorority patiently waiting for a dance to break up in the next room. Note how the artist has captured the anguish and devotion of this lonely woman as she frets over her young charges (who were nicknamed "The Whistlers" because of the way in which they obtained dates). TheVenusde Milo: Sculp tured in the second cen tury B.C. on behalf of a Greek pencil manufac turer, this great statue has won fame through the ages as the symbol Of beauty parlors, bowling alleys, upholstery firms and reducing pills. Today it is used primarily as a vivid warning to small children who bite their fingernails. Woman in Water: Here is the original of a great "lost" masterpiece which I was able to acquire for the ridicu lously low price of $8,500. I mention this only to show what great bargains you can find in art if you know your subject. I determined the authenticity of this priceless original by proving that the small stain, upper left, was made by Renoir's favorite coffee. AT LEFT: “MASTER OF ALL MASTERPIECES”! “Here, in my opinion,” says Dr. Frood, “is the greatest work of art. Note the bold, clean strokes in LUCKY STRIKE, conveying the wisdom and pride of the manufacturer. Note the perfect circle, representing, of course, the perfect product inside. And in the product itself we find a truly mag nificent expression of quality, good taste, pleasure and contentment. Surely, there is no work of art that, over the years, has brought more aesthetic joy not only to all of us in the art world, but to millions of people in all walks of life.” Ofc-SGASSTXr; «** am®**.*** T ' * m CHANGE TO LUCKIES and get some taste for a change!
