TEXAS IN GRIP or
SEVERE BLIZZARD
Large Part Of the State Covered with
snow--Freezing Temperature
Reaches the Gulf.
LBy Associated Press.l

Dallas, Texas, Jan. For the first
time in several years a general snow
storm, covered a large portion OF
Texas today Even San Antonio was
white and frozen with sleet which fell
for several hours. Waco, Fort Worth
and Dallas all had snowstorms which
blanketed the ground with a thin
layer of white. AT Houston there was
no snow, but ice formed on the wires
and car tracks, which delayed traffic
seriously.
I. The citrus fruit growers in that
vicinity said they were not worried,
as last nights gulf coast temperature
was only slightly below freezing and
not cold enough TO hurt trees.
Texas temperatures range from 2
degrees below in the Panhandle to 2S
degrees above at Galveston. 1t is 6
degrees above at Ell Paso and Il de-
grees above at San Antonio.
At Claiming scores of cattle took
refuge In the citys streets from the
wind-swept range. Gales piled the
snow in drifts on the range, leaving
many bare spots which furnished sub
sistence for the stock.

COMMERCIAL CLUB i.
MEETING

Fhe attendance at the meeting Of
the Commercial Club this morning was
the best of any in many months. The
business was Of great Importance.
The first matter to be considered
was the extension of the A. and NJ,
College. The importance to the state
of this great institution of learning is
so well recognized that movement
is on now throughout the state for a
more liberal support, and Bryan will
do its part to assist in the plans. The
question was discussed at length and
committee, consisting of Messrs. j.
Webb Howell, w. ]. Coulter and A. M.
Waldrop, was appointed to be known
as the A. and M. extension committee,
to devise ways and means for pushing
the plans along. 1t was suggested .aat
the committee meet in the club rooms
Wednesday at a convenient holr for
action.
The secretary made lengthy re-
port upon the brick factory and the
question of contracting with the COM
pany was referred to the committee on
new enterprises. This new acquisition
to the industrial section of the COM
merce of Bryan is considered of great
value as compared with the cost to
Bryan.
The secretary reported that grading
on the extension of the interurban to
the Brazos bottom will probably be
started next week, and it was sug-
gested that a committee of seven be
appointed to assist Mr.. ]. w. Bats in
the matter of securing the right-of
way, to be known as the right-of-way
committee. This committee was later
appointed, as follows: E. H. Astin,
chairman; W. Wipprecht, ]. M. Sala-
diner, w. E. Saunders, John NJ. Law
renee, Ed Hall, B. Kaczer.
1t was suggested by some of the
members that, owing to the extensive
work accomplished the past year on
fund of $500, every member be
asked to double their assessment the
coming year in order to still further
extend the clubs usefulness. AS one
director expressed it, there is not a
member in the city but has been bene'
fitted five times, his club dues by fhe
work of the club in the past, and the
work has now grown to such proper
tions that more funds are required"
The annual meeting Of the club will
be held early in February, at which
time definite action will be taken upon
the question.

This tradition will be known this year, and in all years to come, as Alumni Day. It will be the second Saturday in October, coming this year on the eleventh.
 In the founding and the building of tradition the alumni have prepared a big and full day for all the eX-students of the school. With the help of the high, the students and the has-beens will gather at the Grant grounds on the afternoon of the dedicated day, where there will be demonstrations of wells and a band concert by the Co., votes band. This will be followed by football game between the Coyotes and the team Of the ex-stars of the high
 But the attraction and the tradition building will be fulfilled when the two teams gather in the auditorium of the high for the celebration in the evening. There the teams will be the guests of the alumni organization, and. as the guests, will be banqueted and addressed Following the addresses there will be music and dances for those who enjoy such frolIicsome mirth.
 All the alumni of the school are ex- pected to aid in the founding of this tradition They will register at the Central Drug store where Earl Hawley. an alumnus, will take their names and ticket them. It is important that they get in early at this registering as there can be accommodated only about 200 at the tables and first come. first sold. applies here as in all such occasions. The arrangement committee have de- cided that all who have been atten- dants at the school. and who. lend their aid to the cause shall be included and known. as alumni. and all these are ex- pected to register soon.

The committee in charge of the affairs is, Sidney Osborn. chair man; Cliff Maddox, Will Simpson. Randolph McIlheney and Julian Gang.
 At the close of the banquet there will be an election of officers who will di- rect the affairs of the alumni organf- zation for the year to come and who will have in charge the staging of a like celebration with the arrival of football season and next fall There will also be plans laid during the ev- ening for future spreads and entertain ments by the alumni and full year of sports and enjoyment will be outlined.

Empress.

In choosing "The Girl At Rectors" for the present bill Claude Kelly un- doubtedly picked his pet bill, and one which for that matter might appeal to all the other members of the company. For it is fact that his show has met more approval than any heretofore offered and each member seems espec- ially fitted for the character repre- scented. Aside from an excellent line of musical numbers, all of which earn repeated encOres, the comedy situations are numerous, and the fun flows freely A real plot, of entertaining kind is en- braced in the lines of the play, which greatly adds to it's attractiveness. The bill will run through Saturday and Sunday nights. with complete change on Monday, including a new display of movies.
