Caudill, chairman of the group, who left Sunday. Caudill, research engineer Texas Engineering Experiment Station, explained that the group is meet ing for a twofold purpose. “First, to see what the archi tectural profession can do to help alleviate the school building crisis which confronts the nation today. Second, to develop a long range plan of research which will lead to better design and construction of school buildings,” Mr. Caudill said. Amendments (Continued from Page 1) sion period might cause defaults in payments on the notes, leav ing the state burdened with the problem of paying off the bonds from other sources. Probably the hottest amendment being submitted is one to let the State increase • public welfare spending from 35 to 42 million dollars per year. It’s the last pro posal on the ballot. Backers of the amendment say it will help old age pensioners keep the wolf from the door. The pro posal has been attacked on the ground that it removes the citizen ship requirement from the Consti tution and might permit so many people to I’eceive state aid that pension checks would be smaller instead of larger.

Bull-ring (Continued from Page 1) I had rather walk in the afternoon than on Saturday, because there are more things to do on Satur day,” said Pat McMurray, fresh man from Decatur majoring in business. George Munns, a freshman from La Feria taking General Basic, said that the new policy “will make the units work hard er. And it won’t show up on our 201 file, either,” he added. “I think it’s the best idea that has come out yet,” said Martin Wolfe, freshman from Arlington taking automotive engineering. “This will keep the outfits on the ball.” Bob Rowe, freshman from Alex andria, La. majoring in electrical engineering, said, “We have little enough time for recreation now. The Saturday bullring ought to be more than enough.” As an average, the freshmen and sophomores seem to think that the new company punishment policy will take away a lot of their spare time, which they used, for sports, studies, or anything else they had to do.

This picture marks one of the first successful attempts on the part of the movie makers to in clude a social commentary in a film. Eastman is doomed by the social conditions in which he is born. His affair with the factory girl ends all hopes of social ad vancement. The film makes use of some entirely new photographic tech niques which will find a place in many of the Film Capital’s future productions. Its technical beauty is matched only by the high quality of its acting. Time magazine has called it the picture to beat for the Acad emy Award; many who see the pic ture will no doubt agree.
