He claims that Paddock is good for two first places in the 100 and 220 sprints; Otto Anderson good for three places in both hurdles and the broad jump; Oliver Corey almost sure of a place in the high jump; Norman Anderson likely to place in both the discus and the shot put; Yale Martz a good bet in the 440—cot to mention other men on the Trojan track squad.

SUCH AN ARRAY OF outstanding material has. it seems, frightened the Eastern critics, who have taken their dope from past events and figured U.
S. C. a go odwinner, if admitted.
They are human, true, for they would like to see their own section win the meet. But they are not sportsmen unless they are broad enough to meet other institutions on an even basis. This they have failed lo do, for information concerning the scholastic standing of U. S. C. was sufficient in the fact that they had recognized the Pacific Coast Conference, which admitted U. S. C. to membership.
STUDENT DRIVE to raise the student body share of the ten million dollar endowment has proven successful.
The $100,00 mark has been reached, and 100 per cent student subscription reported from two colleges, with Liberal Arts, Commerce and Law fighting to complete their drives, making 100 per cent for the entire University.
SIX STUDENTS are all that absolutely refused to subscribe anything. The captains got together and^gave each one dol*ar with which to make a small pledge, paying, by the way, in cash.
To those six the eyes of the Trojan students must turn in silent contempt.
‘ Breathes there a man with soul so dead
Who never to himself hath said:
‘This is my own, my native land!’”
This same sentiment prevails in the .student body of the University of Southern California toward their alma mater. Those six are slackers, pure and simple, and they cannot be regarded otherwise. The pledge they were asked to make was so small that they were unable to plead that they could not afford to write their own terms.
WITHIN THE NET FIVE DAYS the entire University will have re?ched 100 per cent subscription.
That will not include, however, the extension division or the summer school students. When those two di visions are taken from the total enrollment of 7,011, the total active student registration reads more like 4,000 than the much stated 7,000.
Dan Cupid will put the finishing touches on what is_considered by U. S. C. students one of the most interesting enterprises in which he has ever engaged on the University campus when Berdine Jackman, vice-president of the Associated Student Body, becomes the bride of Major ‘Warren Bradley Bovard at eight o’clock this evening in the University Methodist Church.
The wedding is to be a university affair, the bride having been prominent in campus activities sinee coming here two years ago while Major Bovard is comptroller of the university and son of President-emeritus George Finley Bovard. The Bovards have been closely associated with the history of the University since its founding in 1879, when Marion McKinley Bovard, uncle of the Major, was its first president.
MAIDS OF HONOR
Attending the bride will be Miss Claire Reynolds, of San Francisco, as maid of honor, Mrs. Marie Henry, matron of honor, and the Misses Adah KieinSmid. Gladys Stone, Cora McCor-(CONTINUED ON PAOE 3)

Turn Down S. C. Request
After having been invited to send a team East to compete in tbe Intercollegiate championships by the officials of the Intercollegiate Amateur Athletic Association of America two years ago, the University of Southern California is suddenly informed through Associated Press dispatches that her track and field team will not be allowed to compete in the so-called Intercollegiate championship meet this spring.
The reason given for this action, was. according to the I. A. A. A. A. officials, that the collegiates standing and requirements cf the

HORSE WILL TROT FORTH TOIS MONTH
With an increase in the number of copies, the Wooden Horse will appear in three weeks, bringing a really literary atmosphere to the campus. It will have the same number of pages as the last issue, and the work will be of the same quality, according to Editor Daugherty.
Contributors are requested to enclose a stamped, addressed envelope with each manuscripe submitted.
Tryouts for the Quill Club will take place within the next ten days.
"The desire of the club to have a really representative magazine of the literary ability of the student body cannot be too strongly stressed,” says Ercil Adams, president of the organization. Everyone who has any leanings toward fame has a chance to show his worth.”
These games mark the end of a rather irregular season for U. S. C. Tjhey started off fairly well, breaking even with the Bears in one series, the same Bears who took the Coast bunting after walking on Stanford.
But the main factor In the relatively poor showing of the Trojans lies in the fact that the majority of the first string squad of basketeers were members of Henderson's champion football team. Hence, the men did not get a chance to even feel a basketball until well after the first of the year.
While other coast teams were rounding into A-l shape the Trojans were still without the slightest practice.
It was lack of practice that stood out prominently from the first of the season. The boys, generally, lacked practice at goal shooting; they had many shots at, but could not hit, the basket With the precision a little pracice would have given them.
That the team had a strong defensive strength is evident In that they were never beaten by a higher score than 35 points for the opposition while running up a fairly decent score themselves.

Trojans whose names were overlooked are urged to subscribe voluntarily, as a recheck of all the students in U. S. C. will be taken, and officials are especially desirous of making the* expression of the student body unanimous in the biggest drive the University of Southern California has ever promoted.
Response of the foreign students on the campus was especially gratifying, according to those in charge, for practically every organization of which they are members reported 100 per cent subscrpition.
Nearly every fraternity and sorority on the campus reported 100 per cent subscription Friday morning, and many of the clubs and other associations also turned in similar reports. By the close of the drive almost every organization on the campus had reported a full representation.

The ballroom was decorated by greenery and special lighting efiects added not only beauty but romance and thrills as well, according to Wai ter Sykes, social chairman of the Commerce Club, who has received many congratulations for the way "in which the affair was conducted.

Greetings!
Today the sun shines brightly, claiming your attention. It is a thing of beauty and a joy, etc. However, at an(j \vu|jUr (“Buck”) Ondermoulen. eleven o’clock the sun’s rays are dan- j gerous. Since this is particularly the case on Tuesdays and Thursdays, a beneficent University has provided the shelter of the assembly auditorium to keep her students from suffering by reason of sunstroke.
Sophomores! Thursday’s class meeting is of high importance. Be there and you will learn great things. The class proposes a high enterprise, to which every member must subscribe a hearty assent if the plans are to go through. Lest you become suspicious, know', O Sophomores, that this is not for the purpose of collecting class dues.
If you would know more—and you must—trot out to class meeting Thursday. Everybody’s doing it!

U. S. C.’s latest athletic team to develop, the water polo squad, will play its initial game Thursday night against the crack Y. M. C. A. aquatic aggregation at the “Y” tank at 8:30. Candidates for the water polo team have been practicing for the last two weeks, and although their team work may be rugged, their speed and snap will be apparent Thursday night.
Jack Hughes was elected captain of the Trojan water dogs, while Bill Evans was chosen manager at a recent meeting of the candidates. Mr. Lee of the Physical Education department, is the coach of the team.
Money is a queer commodity. Its power for good and evil touches all human life. Its faculty of glittering magnetism seems to change or develop human character. And in solieting contributions to file campus Endowment Drive last week the solicitors brought to the surface many interesting facts—stories would better de scribe them. Stories of personal sacrifice, of due generosity, of niggardli- 1 ness, and of the joy, felt by many, of giving.
No one will ever know exactly what feelings induced many of the pledges and the size is surely no criterion. Many gave, in truth, till it hurt, while others who could well apord it grasped their pocketbooks tighter, looked at the solicitor with suspicion, closed their ears to reason, and marked a paltry “$10”—“$25”—“$50” on the slip. FREAK PLEDGES A glance over the records, however, as they have been so far made out. tells an interesting tale.
One of the most peculiar pledges made was by a man working for a B.S. degree and wrho stipulated that, if he received his degree, he will contribute four times the average amount given during the campaign. On the other hand, if he fails in his efforts for the diploma he will reduce the amount to twice the average.
Another student about to enter a profession pledged 1 per cent of his earnings for the four years following graduation. A good thought. His Alma Mater will benefit to the proportion that he benefits.
Those in charge are beginning to believe that U. S. C. also harbors a few practical jokers. Between fifteen and twenty pledges were reported of $1— to be made in eight semi-annual payments.
Reports from Guy Claire, treasurer, show that many who are working their way through contributed from $10 to $100; in many cases a real sacrifice.
The commonest sum given was $25, while the highest was $1150—given, by the way, by a freshman. Other large [sums were $500, a few of $400, seven or eight of $300 and quite a number of $100.
Bothwell today announced that the squad wuold take a trip north near the end of this month to meet
the Stanford and California teams. The nearness of these two contests makes it imperative that practice start this week.
Baseball, which follows closely on the heels of basketball, now occupies tbe spotlight in the sport realm, and the Trojan apple artists will settle down to tlie work of getting in shape to eop the Conference championship. Wheeler, the new coach, is hailed as a chap capable of bringing out the best in ball tossers. and everything looks bright for this season's diamond possibilities.
SOME VETERANS
While the majority of the varsity will probably be composed of new men. there will be enough veterans on the squad to form a nucleus around which it should be comparatively easy to build a winning team. Les Turner. Thornton and afew more of last year’s (CONTINUED ON PAGE 3)

ENGINEER JINX THE THIRTEENTH
Is Friday, fhe 13th, a jinx? It is for the Engineers, but not the kind of jinx commonly referred to. In this case it is the Engineers’ Hi-Jinx. to be held on Friday. April 13th. in the form of a dance at Payne's Academy.
The affair will not be a fancy dress ball as was rumored, but will be on the order of the Engineers’ annuai Hard Times Hop, except that the costumes will be more grotesque and extreme than those permitted at the Hard Times affair. However, all costumes will be rigged up from the individual supplies of old clothes and castoffs. according to Marson Robb, A. A. E. vice-president, who 1? planning the Hi-Jinx.
WEIRD COSTUMES WANTED
“The idea,” said Robb, "of this kind of a dance is to give more chance for originality of design of the custumes than is afforded at the Hard Times Hop. Go the limit. The only requirements is that you get inside without being caught by the Los Angeles police force.”
Committees are being appointed, elaborate decorations planned, and scores of novelties, that feature all Engineers’ dances, uncovered. The tickets will be held for Engineers exclusively until one week before the date set for the dance, when the sale will be thrown open to the student body. The number of tickets will be limited so that the hall will not be too crowded for a good time to be had by all, and the lucky few, outside of the Engineers, who obtain admittance are promised a never-to-be-forgotten evening.
