BRANCH AND BERKELEY STUDENTS HAVE RALLY
In union there is strength, so figure the Bears. Last Wednesday a bleacher rally was held at the South-, ern Branch at which time the Cubs attempted to show their big brothers from the north that they are worthy to be rated as a part of the great Bruin organization. Ordinarily the two schools have about as much in common as a Freshman and a Sophomore.
This afternoon the two rooting sections will meet together and be led in a few yells by the California yell leader. The entire day is to be turned over to the visitors and a big preliminary celebration, hailed as All-California Day, will provide the tie that is to bind the Bears and Cubs. “It is well to put on a song and dance while on may’’ runs an Eskimo proverb.

Lewis, Nichols to Represent U.S.C. at Debate Conference
Leaving Los Angeles on the Lark at eight o'clock next Tuesday evening. Coach Alan Nichols and Debate Manager Ned Lewis will embark for Eugene, Oregon, where they will represent U. S. C. at the meeting of the Pacific Coast Public Speaking Conference. At this time the extemporaneous speaking contest of the Coa.st will be held, and the debate program for the season arranged. All of the major universities of the coast will send representatives who will endeavor to win the highest honor obtainable in the field of speech in the West.
LEWIS IS REPRESENTATIVE
Ned Lewis will be the student representative of U. S. C. at the conclave, and will also represent the University on the platform. The general subject of the day will be “Criminal Syndicalism,’ the same topic that was used in the local Bowen Speaking Contest. Lewis has been preparing for this contest for several weeks by I appearing before many of the clubs and business men’s organizations in
town, speaking on both sides of the question.
The contest will be conducted in a similar manner to that of the Bow-*-n Contest with the exception that each speaker will be allowed twelve minutes and must speak on an assigned topic with only one hour of preparation.
CAL. STANFORD DELEGATES Coach Nichols and Lewis will join Don Perry of Covina, now a Junior at California and representing U. C in the contest, and will also join the Stanford representative at Palo Alto. Ned Lewis is one of the foremost stu dents of the University, having been on the Varsity debating squad for two years. Probably no Junior on the Pacific Coast has had as. much practical experience in platform work ae he.
This is one of the greatest opportunities of the year for U. S. C. and every effort is being made by Coach Nichols to bring the coveted trophy from Oregon to the University of Southern California.
Beat The Bears!
Before the entire Chapel of the University, nine chosen speakers officially closed the first forsenic contest on this year’s program. The debate, known as the Bowen Cup Contest, and held annually, was founded by Judge Bowen, a trustee of the University of Southern California.
Six cups were awarded to the chosen speakers. First honors went to Arthur Syvestson; Adna Leonard, Jr. was second, while Manual Ruiz and Wilbur Schurr tied for third place. Each was awarded a cup. Raymond Brennan received judgement for fifth place and Jerry Mayo finished the list of the winners.
Two hours before Chapel time, the nine debaters were given the questions drew positions for speaking, and were assigned sides. After intense preparation during the allotted time, they met on the platform and each spoke to the student body for five minutes on the particular phase of the problem he had chosen.
The question was Resolved: ‘‘That the California Criminal Syndicalism Law shouid be repealed.” This is also known as Senate Bill 660 and has created state-wide interest and controversy for the last few months.
“This was one of the best debates

Wooden Horse Keepers Request Poetry For Their Worthy Steea
The Wooden Horse is in great need of poetry to increase his vitality, for no poem “fodder” has been sent to his managers yet and he cannot be fattened properly ur less he has this element. Howevei-, quite a few stories and essays have been turned in. The quality of this material has been mo much better than was expecteck that the first issue is not to be a “low-brow” or “Spark Plug” as was formerly planned, but it is to be the classical Greecian Horse edition.
Still more material is wanted as it is always possible for work to be improved. There has been no cover design submitted so far. An urgent call has been made for one as it will be impossible for the Horse to gallop on the campus without his blanket.
The editors’ first staff meeting is to be held after the game Saturday in the Editor’s private attic. Al Tachet, feature writer of the Trojan, is editor in chief and the assistant editors are Ercil Adams .contributor to “Part Time Platitudes” and Ross Wills, sport editor of the Trojan. The work at the meetings is done by candlelight and all material is marked with quill pens in the regular Greenwich Village style.
I have ever heard in the Bowen Cup finals,” declared Coach Nichols, head of the debating staff. “The speakers were well prepared on the subject and were, above all, convincing. There were few repetitions in the material chosen, and several novel sides of the question were presented.”
The winner of the first honor, Ar-thus Syvertson, received the $1500 prize awarded in the Constitutional Contest held last year. Adna Leonard, Jr., is the son of Bishop Leonard of the Methodist Church. Manual Ruiz, who took third place, has distinguished himself in debating for Manual Arts High School last year. His opponent for third honors is a capable debater on the University squad. Another well-known figure is that of Raymond Brennan, who promises to surpass his brother, Bernard, in the forsenic line. The ability r,f the winner of the last cup, Jerry Mayo, walked off with the Hamburger Cup for debating last year.
Ned Lewis, manager of debating, when approached on the subject said, “Besides the abilities shown by the speakers, we must consider the wealth of material uncovered both in the preliminaries and the finals of the con test. To me, the possibilities for a i successful debating year are assured.” Judges for the contest were S. P. Tanquary, instructor at Manual Arts and an alumnus of U. S. C.; Merle McGinnis, alumnus and instructor at Los Angeles High; Professor Harley of the Political Science department > here.

Rooters caps •tnd vhite shirts are Absolutely necessary and no student will be admitted :n :>)*.• looting section without them A".

For the first time in four years the Trojans are conceded an even chance of victory over the Wonder Team of the Blue and Gold institution that has swept all opposition before it since 1919. The University of Southern California eleven is not in the best of condition, but Coach Elmer C. Henderson has worked unceasingly and faithfully to perfect an offensive that will carry the ball into the Bear’s sacred and forbidden territory.

Record Crowd In Stadium to Witness Trojan-Cal. Contest
Impatience reigns supreme!
<*#
Inflamed oy an intense interest in the coming tussel, created by concentrated rallies, predictions of sport i wizards, and recent dope upsetting,
| football followers can not hide an at-i ir.osphere of impatience and anxiety ! awaiting the decisive moment tomorrow afternoon when the season’s leading fray will be in vogue at the Coliseum. Such interest in this Cal-U. S. C. contest will bring together a crowd which is expected to exceed the conservative estimate of 65,000 aad possibly fill the giant Stadium to capacity.
Statistics show that these two outstanding ‘machines’ will grapple before th i largest assemblage of football enthusiasts to have ever witnessed such action on the Pacific Coast, and by far a greater crowd than those attending the most prominent eastern games this year. Ernest Judson in charge of the seating of the crowd will use over twelve hundred ushers and guards to properly seat the enor-
mous crowd in their assigned locations.
Student Body presidents. Editors and Business Managers of western institutions will be special guests of U. S. C. and attend the game in a body. Editors will be given badges as news representatives and occupy an important place in the press box, as special guests of the Trojan.
Many forces have tended to create interest in this annual combat and help swell the attendance record. According to Gwynn Wilson, who is managing the game, the advance sale has far exceeded that of any previous occasion with well over 1100,000 in cash receipts and two more days open with prospects bright. ‘ Weather permitting,” says Mr. Wilson, “between fifteen and twenty thousand are expected to pay general admission at the eastsern entrance.”
Much enthusiasm among the Trojans created by the intense rallies
