the re-organization of the A&
Chapter >f j the Texas Collegiate
Academy of Science. The organi
zation is 1 >oihg reborn on this cam
pus undetj the auspices of the Uni
ted Sciences Club.
The AcMemy is

vide a scientific organization for
the umleirgraduate in Texas col
leges. A state meet is held every
year and papers are read by the
students, and a monthly journal is
also publi ihcuT by the organization.
Most Tex is I colleges always have
had large memberships on their
campuses. I
A. few years ago. the Biolc
Club obtained the charter as the
A&M chapter but after repeated
demands rocm such clubs ps Ge
ology, Erttomology, Pre-Med, Ag-
ronamy, ajnd Krcam and Kow, the
United Sdeuces Club was organi
zed as the[AT*' ' “ ‘ *
wont on
member-
ship. !i
Last year, a group attended
the state meet in Austin and
James Livennan of A&M was
elected State Vice-President of
the organization. Liverman and
William Lewis collaborated on a
paper about Brazos River or-
ddds. This paper won first prize
at the meet James Deer of A&
M won third prize for his re
port ,
Dr. Charles LaMotte of tlie Bi
ology Department was chosen as
counselor of the state organization.
Frank Knapp, of the Wild Life
Conservation Department, announ
ced that the first meeting of the
revived chapter will be held at
7:30 p. m., November 3, in the EE
Lecture Room.
Knapp urged all students who
are interested in any type of
science and who would like to
look over the advantages of the
Academy to be present.
Delegates to the state meet to be
held December 9-10-11 in San An

designaled the day for the event.
According to the rules, each
s noker in each class will be

will be given a signal to light his
boiler, and from then on he is
op his own. No additional match-
ek may be used once the fire has
started and the man who keeps
his pipe lit and in smoking con
dition the longest will be declar
ed the winner of his class.
$o far three classes of pipe
snlokers have been named— the
standard for men whose pipes are
pf average size and shape; the
