OTHER FACUITV MEMBERS

It 

i i p rim arily for the o u t of town 
readers we record Dr. W illiam dames 
B a ttle as Dr. Mezen* successor as Dean 
of the M ain U niversity. A large per­
cent of the students, old ami new, know 
exactly who is who in the Facu lty 
for 
la* it said th at the g reater number of 
us have m atriculated. And who has not 
line hours, day s— ages, 
w aited 

iii th a t 

ju s t to see th e Dean?

Dr. B a ttle has been Dean p ractically 
ever since M arch 1st, la st, when he was 
a p p o i n t e d as A cting Dean during Dr. 
Mezen* trip abroad. • B u t he had acted 
the same capacity on previous oc­
in 
casions, so th a t he is already thorough­
ly equipped as far as experience is con­

cerned.

It would have been hard for the Board 
of Regents to have selected a man wit Ii

Manderson, ’V a rsity qu arter in ’04, will 
come back and spend the weeks prior to 
the first game doing all he can to help 
get the ’V arsity in shape.

On the whole the outlook is fa r from 
gloomy. W ith good coaches, a good 
cap tain , and plenty of sp irit on the p art 
of the students, Texas should tu rn out 
a team as good as any in her history.
M anager McCutcheon announces th a t 
the tra in in g table for the squad will be 
th is year a t the old R am sdell place west 
of the campus. The first m eal will be 
served Monday night next, 
if there is 
no trouble in securing a cook.
