and revised it 70 'you owe this
world q life"
The college head saw sensibi!ity in
modern short skirts. when / was n
youth, women did not have hands for
work. One was used to hold n hat
on their head and the other TO hold
their skirts off the ground" The
crowd roared when he added: "To-
dav a girl can put on a pair Of low
heeled shoes and she's ready for the
gymnasium"
Turning to a more serious vein
again, the doctor urged the need of
men Of high character in school work.
ut takes such a man to forget his
political and business friends when
he tranSactS business with the tax
payers money"
Informal reception in class rooms

HONOR TUCKER
in DEDICATINC
new BUILDING
Junior College Senior
High Structure Is
Lauded; Cousins,
Starck Speak

An undertone Of respect and hon
or for the late 5. c.. Tucker run
ing throughout ceremonies and
speeches at the formal opening OF
the model $35O,000 Junior College
Senior High building Thursday
night, flared openly when Homer l..
Fitch, at the suggestion Of j. Z.
| Starck. made a motion from the
floor that the Brownsville athletic
field be named for Mr.. Tucker.
The motion was quickly seconded
BY Lawrence Olmstead and unani-
mously passed as the crowd of 900
swept to its feet in unison.
Just prior to suggesting that the
field be named for Mr.. Tucker,
Starck, secretary Of the Brownsville
independent school district almost
since organization in 1915, declared
that the formal opening of the new
building would have been the most
memorable event in his life were il
not marred by the absence Of one
long associated with educational de-
velopment in Brownsville-S. c.
Tucker.
Cousins Speaks
President r. r. Cousins Of the
South Texas Teachers College at
kingsville, delivered the main ad-
dress which touched a wide range OF
subjects. His opening statement
was that Brownsville was indeed
and officers in this day Of "plung-
ing and graft"
Il have had lots Of experience in
building school structures. / con-
slider the Brownsville school board
extremely fortunate in its selection
Of architects and quality Of material
obtained when this temple was
erected. II is all that could be de-
desired. / do not know Of a better
worked out plan in the state of
Texas. Ii would be a credit to any
institution in the state, not except
ing the University of Texas" These
are some Of DR.. Cousins compli-
ments picked at random.
The elderly educator expressed the
belief that the people were a bit
too generous in placing the growth
Of the local school system at any
one mans feet. The healthy growth
he said, could not have been posi-
bic without the wholehearted CO.
operation Of the taxpayers.
Religion and Politics
The speaker then asked the in
diligence of the audience for a mo-
ment and depressed, telling of the
merit Of teachers trained for teach
ing. and pointed to the South Texas
State Teachers college as the school
for this section.
DR.. Cousins then spoke Of educa-
ton of the masses of people. Every
human being, because he is a hu-
man being and not a beast, is en-
titled TO education" and there is
danger in continuous ignorance
were among his statements. Only
