was decided by the clpb at s meet
ing IMt. night. Mr. ‘ Evans was
Kin»rn'.aHter of the first annual
Rodeo, held in November, 1919. This
first event was known as the Page
ant and Novelty Horse Show, and
was for the purpoee of assisting
in defraying the expenses of the
flock judging team to Chicago.
One of the interesting points of
the first Rodeo was the mounted
wrestling match between the caval
ry and the artillery, in which Bill
King of Sen Antonio, major-in
the eavalfy, had all his clothes
torn off. The only casualty of the
■gw was Raphael Do La Olivers,
who suffered s broken arm in a fall
from a bucking steer. ,
It is interesting to note that tbs
Ringmaster of this Rodeo was
■MMlli for the occasion with the
customary riding boots, black coat
and tie, and derby hat, as contrast
ed with the custom of the last few
years of having the Ringmaster
ess merely in ordinary cowboy

LAST NITE AT 7^9 THE So

meeting of the year in the Physics
Lecture Room
In "Both Your H
well Anderson takes the House of
Representatives apart and lets the
entire theater going public see
bow H ticks. The "houses’* referred
to in the title are not the houses
of Congress, but the two political
parties to which Mr. Anderson is,
at least, impartial. He lambssts
the Republicans as well as the De
mocrats, and just for good mea
sure, brings in a member of the
Farmer-Labor party.
The story concerns a young radi
cal who has been sent to Congress
by the farmers of the west. He
eome^ to Washington, booted and
spurred, as It ware, eager to ride
an extravagant Congress to a fare
theo-well. He defies the leaders,
who reminded him be can do no
thing without party endorsement.
He exposes them in the midst of
their bantering and trades, and
even beata them at their own game.
He marshalls the non-partisan
group on his side when the vote
on an outrageous appropriation
bill is closed, in the hope of making
it ridieulous.
He if defeated in the end but
leaves with bis eloquent threats,
of what the people will one day
do to its dishonest politicians, ring
ing through the ancient hallo:
Howell and Heaton
To Attend Registrar's
Meeting in Austin
E. J. Howell, registrar, and H-
L. Heaton, assistant '> £istrar, will
leave for Austin Friday to attend
a meeting of the Texas Association
of Collegiate Registrars. The meet
ing will take place Friday after
noon, and Friday night the regis
trars will attend a banquet. Mr.
Howell will have charge of the a-
musement for the program which
will be followed up by a more seri
ous talk by Dr. Ruth'ABen of the
University of Texas.
Several years ag" Mr. Howell
eras placed in charge of the amuse
ment at one of the meetings of the
Texas Association of Collegiate
Registrars. He created what is now
called the Add and Drop College.
The college gets its name from the
fact that most of the work in a
registrars office consist* of adding
and dropping courses from a Stu-'
dents record.
77m college was created for a-
musement only, nevertheless it
confers degrees. Some of the de
grees which have been conferred
in the past years ss well as some
of the courses offered in their
curricula give is brief idea as to
the “seriousness" of the college.
The title of one person's thesis
was "Eat, Drink and be Leary"
and that person was awarded a
LL.D. in LevRy. Another ealsr-
prnfng aspirant called his thesis
"Woe is Me” and was swarded a
LL. D in Lamentation. In tbs col
lege curricula are found eoarses in
Low Brow Language, Why Women
are Always Right. Story of a Kiss,
and many others. Mr. Howell has
• degree in 3-2. H» is also be

In the 8. M. U. Cadpos
During the past week, increasing
demands have been made of the
girls who know boys at A d M. It
seems thst 90 per cent of the S. M.
U. girls want to go to the German
with an A. d M boy.
'As most of the girls rather hes
itate to write their favorite Aggie
and sat: “Dear 'johnny, when you
n < up for the game, please bring
with you three tell brunettes, one
tall blopd, and two short red
heads," there is a.(growing senti
ment that something .'ught to be
done.
DATE BUREAU?

LIVINGSTON ASK'S
ARKANSAS GIRLS
DOWN FOR DANCE
“There’ll be a hot time in Aggie-
Saturday night,” pays Bill
Livingston, social secretary of the
senior class, “if my present plans
go to completion." Livingston has
written to the Dean of Women at
the University of Arkansas inviting
the girls at the university down
for the dance after the game Sat
urday night He has promised es
corts fur all girls making the trip
to A. d M. t and is counting on the
Aggies not to fail him in this res
pect
As the annual rodeo is being
steged this week-end, Livingston
said ho expected a number of beys
to bring dates hsre tot the rodeo
who will stay over for the game
Saturday and then attend tbs third
fewtball dan<4 of the season Satur
day night.
Livingston said that he expected
to receive a nplf to his letter
sometime this wmB ’ j
Even if the girls from Arkansas
do not get to make the trip for the
game and dance, the dance wfll
be one #f the biggest events oi the
yem - . Tommy Littlejohn and
Aggie land Orchestra wifi be on
hand to furnish nmslc for the even
Ml;!
indications of what is to be ex
pected this year, about 160 or 200
S. M. U. girls will dst* about that
many S. M. U. boys for the Ger
man, aad about 1000 A. d M. boys
wi'l wander around lover Dallas
wishing they had dates^ while about
1000 S. M. U. girls sit at bp me and
wish I they had dates. '
Why don’t they gjt together?
Because the. Aggie tr.iin arrives
about noon Saturday, the beys go
to the game, and then they start
wondering about a date for the
dance. By this time nil the girls
are tacked safely in the dorm lor
the night.
lYfee general result is that no-
»ody baa much fun o-i the week
ends when there is > marvelous
set-up for having a K<k>d time. The
dance isn't any good- because the
stags get in your hair and on goer
feet, and staying away from the
dance isn’t any fun because—well-
just because.
I. A. SYSTEM I
At CL L A. the girl*,have worked
out a system by a^kh
hundred girls can meet
hundred boys qukAly an
fully. They have receptions and'
date bureaus. > L
Beeauae they realise that meet
ing and Inwwfcji students of other
schoo's is • very definite part of
college tipd'.the school authorities
are favorable towaffi/ any plan
which furthers this end.
A date bureau at is. M. U. for
the German could be successful,

it might be a good ti ng. A mili
