defines a mascot as a person an imal or thing supposed to bring good luck and the slide rule would certainly fall in that class how ever just a plain slide rule would be rather awkward but with the addition of wheels a head and tail you have something it would have several advantages which are small initial cost no upkeep would not bite the cheerleaders and it would be something en tirely new
