Race on Ticket Sale Nears End
At Texas Lutheran College, 50 per cent of the student body members are relatives of former students of the college.
Tickets for the annual Engineering banquet, March 28, sold rapidly today, as the race for the lead in the ticket selling contest among the seven departments of the School of Engineering and Architecture drew near to the final deadline, March 27.
According to the bulletin board "thermometer" erected in Marvin hall, the students in the department of petroleum engineering are the hottest in the race. The petroleum engineers lead in the percentage of tickets sold to all of the students in that department.
Each year the program cards, featuring some phase of engineering work, are designed by one of the students. Richard Hansen, e'40, a student in the department of architecture, is making the cards. The program itself is basically musical, mainly piano and vocal selections.
The banquet address will be made by Ernest E. Howard, widely known civil engineer from New York City. Mr. Howard was chief architect for bridges spanning rivers in several foreign countries as well as spans over many rivers in this country. Darell Liston, e'41, and George Rippey, e'40, head of the engineering council, are in charge of the banquet plans.
