NEWS IN BRIEF: `Best of Houston' honors Rice
Rice garnered six accolades in the Houston Press' annual "Best of Houston" issue last week.

The Press honored Club 13 in its "Best Naked Joggers" category for their bimonthly campus runs and distinguished the School of Continuing Studies for "Best Spanish Classes" in Houston.

Valhalla took top honors in the "Best Cheap Beer" category, and the Marching Owl Band, known for its comedic half-time shows, won recognition as "Best Marching Band" in the goofball division of the competition.

The Press also lauded 1997 Nobel Prize laureate Richard Smalley as Houston's "Best Scientist" and recognized Autry Court as the city's "Best Arena."
