Library and that as great an improve-
ment has been noticed in the operation
of the Book Store since Mrs. Thompson,
our Librarian, assumed that responsibil-
ity in addition to her other duties.
As indicated above, you can see that
there has been constant improvement in
the Faculty and physical facilities of
the Law School to further the advance-
ment in the quality of our student body,
especially noticeable in the past few
years, with the requirement" of a degree
for admission, a minimum score on the
Law School Admission Test, and with
the over-all professional attitude that
has prevailedMn the Law School. I be-
lieve that the changes which have been
made are for the best interest of the
Law School and for the students who
obtain a degree from this school. Any
changes that are made will necessarily
have to be made gradually so as not to
disrupt the continuity of the Law School
operations. The goal is to turn out a
sound practitioner in the courts—one
that will be competent in applying the
knowledge he has obtained, a credit to
his school and his profession, and a
person who in his own mind feels that
he is well-qualified and competent to
represent his fellow man in the multi-
tude of problems of this ever-changing
world.

This semester Iota Tau Tau Inter-
national Legal Sorority enters a second
year of accomplishment and growth at
South Texas College of Law. Women
who are law students or lawyers are
eligible for membership in Iota Tau Tau.
Efforts in the initial year were concen-
trated on organizing, drafting a con-
stitution and by-laws, and expanding
membership. Alpha Zeta Chapter has
grown from a charter membership of
seven in the summer of 1966 to a pres-
ent membership of twenty.
This year's officers, who were in-
stalled at the May meeting at Kaphan's
are: Dean, Iris Hefter; Associate Dean,
Mildred Meltzer; Corresponding Sec-
retary, Sue Robison; Treasurer, Joanna
Overbaugh; Program Chairman, Cynthia
Lindsey; and Social Chairman, Joan
Heisler. They are planning a construc-
tive and enjoyable year in which it is
hoped to benefit all women students of
South Texas College of Law.
This semester was kicked off by
the Annual Get-Acquainted Coffee for
all women students, September 30 at
Braeburn Country Club. This was a
very successful meeting due chiefly to
the contribution by Dean Walker of a
very informative, informal talk and to
brief speeches by representatives of
all South Texas College of Law groups.
It served as a good introduction for new
women to the school. At this meeting,
too, four new members were initiated:
Mae Nacole, Ethel Dodge, Jack Kersh-
ner and Cynthia Lindsey.
On tap activity-wise for this year
are a panel discussion by practicing
women attorneys of the topic "Oppor-
tunities for Women in the Legal Pro-
fession" and a Christmas party. A more
formal meeting with a guest speaker is
in the planning stage.
It is the hope of the chapter to in-
terest scholastically eligible new and
old unaffiliated students, to provide
the opportunity to be acquainted with
one another, to serve the school, and
to achieve maximum fulfillment of our
potential contribution to the study and
practice of law.
EN@)IS NOW
FULLTIME PROF
John Ensle, formerly with the firm of
Blades, Crane, Slator, Winters, and
Ross, has been named a full-time in-
structor at South Texas. Beginning his
full-time duties this semester, he is not
an unfamiliar figure, since he has
served as a part-time instructor for the
previous four semesters. Ensle teaches
Wills, Creditors Rights, Legal Writing II,
Legal Writing III, and is also faculty
advisor of the South Texas Law Journal.
Mr. Ensle was born in Syracuse, New
York, and is in the Air National Guard
with Mr. Roch and Mr. Cpoper, who are
part-time instructors at South Texas.
He graduated from the University of
Texas Law School, where he was a mem-
ber of the debating team and Phi Alpha
Delta Legal Fraternity. For two years
after graduation from Texas, Ensle
served as law clerk for Judge Ben C.
Connaly, U. S. District Judge for the
Southern District of Texas.
Beginning this spring, Mr. Ensle
will also be in charge of moot court at
South Texas. A resident of Houston
since 1947, he is married and has one
child, a three year old boy. Among his
hobbies are golfing and refinishing an-
tique furniture.
It might also be added that Mr.
Ensle's door is always open, regardless
of whether the student is enrolled in
one of his classes. Any student who
has taken one of Mr. Ensle's courses
will find that he is genuinely interested
in his students and South Texas.
