PICTURES FOR tt RODEO HERE ON THE CAMPUS
Seniors to Pose for Camera First; Office Is in Journalism Building
MANY TROJANS GET MONOGRAMS IN PAST YEAR
Tuesday morning at 8:30 photographic work will begin for the El Rodeo. The seniors are to be given the first opportunity to pose for the cameraman, then the juniors will be in line.
This is the first time that the pictures have been taken right here on the campus. El Rodeo office, on the second floor of the Journalism building, has been fitted up with high powered electric lights and is to take the place of a downtown studio.
“Conditions will be practically the same as at the Hill street studio, and the pictures will be equal to if not better than those taken downtown,” promised Lowell Jessen, business manager of the publication.
A list of students who are to report at the office will be posted in front of the entrance to the auditorium. This includes the name of the student and the time of his appointment. The schedule has been arranged according to the cards in the registrar's office, but if conflicts occur, those concerned are asked to report between 12 and 1, or after 3:30 in the afternoon.
Seniors are to wear cap and gown, according to tradition, and are 'expected to come prepared to have their pictures taken on the assigned day.
The price of the pictures are $1.00, to be paid at the first sitting. At the same time a list of the organizations in which the student will appear is to be handed in at the office. No extra charge will be made for these extra cuts.
Armbands Formally
Buried Od Tuesday
Dr. Wilson s final talk in the lecture course he is delivering at U. S. C. will be held at noon today in the Bovard Auditorium.
J. Stitt Wilson, internationally known as the great “Christian Socialist,” made his third address before the student body at the chapel hour yesterday. The Auditorium was packed with students and outsiders, who assembled to hear Dr. Wilson’s lecture.
This is the university preacher’s second visit to U. S. C. Within the last two years, during which time he has visited 110 American and Canadian universities.
Dr. Wilson then presented to the resume of his other two talks. In review, he said: “The world is in the most critical, the most crucial, and possibly the most tragic hour of human history. The problems are interracial, international, social, economic, personal and spiritual.”
RIVERS OF TRUTH
He repeated his statements made at Wednesday’s lecture, “There are five great rivers of truth: Science, history, philosophy, art and revelation.
“It is up to us to face a world of lies and deceit, having drunk from these rivers of truth.
“Education is not the mere cramming of your brain with facts, but saturation, so that when you touch the world you will heal it.
“This means, almost revolution. It means that education must form character and such character that, like the touch of Christ’s garments, its touch will stop suffering.
“There are two kinds of struggles: the struggle for self and the struggle for others. The struggle for self is so paramount that it has involved us in great turmoil.
“Even the animals have displayed the struggle for others. A heard of buffaloes in time of danger will put the females and young in the center, while the males form a circle around them, ready to die to protect them. I wish we had men on Wall street like that.”
I)r. Wilson then presehnted to the assemblage several historical revolts and revolutions which illustrate protestations against governments used, controlled and administered for individual gain.
“When you put governments in the hands of the people you are advocating that principle of the struggle for the welfare of others or the good of the group, a government for the people, of the people, and by the people, pushes away the struggle for self and j brings to light this unselfish struggle.
“He is blowing out the great Moral lights around us who maintains * that anyone may control, use and adminis- |
♦•r prsons for his own gain just be- i cause he wants to.

“A municipal institution offers peculiar advantages, so there is little basis of comparison between the University of Southern California and the University of Arizona.” he continued, watching the students as thev hurried

Status of University Described By President
Dr. von KleinSmid Surprised at Position of U. S. C. with Small Endowment
“All football men who have earned letters report to my office at noon today for measurement for their sweaters, and other details.”
ELMER C. HENDERSON.
Twenty-three men receive reward for their services for Old Trojan on the gridiron during the past season, seven receiving gold footballs and life passes, and sixteen earning monogramed sweaters, according to a list given out by Coach Elmer C. Henderson.
Football has taken a tremendous jump during the past three years under Coach Henderson’s guidance, and the seven men who are rewarded with the gold footballs and life passes for two (etc.), were the nucleus upon which “Gloomy Gus” built his gigantic machine, which lost but two games, both to California, during that time.
NEW SYSTEM INSTALLED
A system will be recommended to the varsity club by Coach Henderson, whereby atheltes who make the squad three years but earn only two letters will receive a life pass to all athletic events. It is probable this policy will be adopted by the “athletic honor society.” If so, three letter men will come under this award.
The men who graduate with highest football honors as a part of their accomplishments while in college, and receive gold footballs and life passes, are Captain Charles Dean, Roy Evans, '20 captain; Orrie Hester, John Leadingham, James Smith, Andrew Toolen and James Woodward.
If the suggestion made by Coach Henderson is adopted, Fred Axe, Logan Lindley, and Frank Lockett will receive lfe passes nstead of the blanket or monogramed sweater.
Those earning sweaters are John Boyle, Leo Ca’land, Gordon Campbell, ’’hester Dolley, Clifford Gordon, Amor lalloway, Keit i Hunter, Howard Kincaid, Theodore Kuchel, Edward Leahy. Lowell Lindl°y and Philip Tiernan.
The awards will be made at a later late, probably at the beginning of the new semester.

CALIF. SAYS EXPERT
“Posters are more beautiful and higher developed in California than any other place in America.” said Arthur across the short-cut from the Admin-
Beaumont, commercial artist, to the Advertising Class. Thursday morning Mr. Beaumont is both an advertiser and magazine illustrator.
“A process of printing oils through silk has been developed in Los Angeles by which- brilliant color is obtained. The colorfulness of Southern California is probably one reason why our posters are unsurpassed.”
Mr. Beaumont talked of creating and advertisement all the way from evolving the idea to the final engraving. Original pencil and pen and ink sketches, as well as some brilliant posters were shown to the class.
Indicating the cultural activity of the University of Southern California faculty, a booklet has just been issued giving a partial list of the books and articles published by the members of the Liberal Arts faculty. The names of thirty-four authors are listed, with Dr. Allison Gaw, Dr. James Main Dixon, Dr. Rockwell D. Hunt, Dr. Emory S. Bogardus, and Dr. George H. Betts as the most prolific writers. The College of Commerce and the Religious Education department are strongly represented in number of writers, although the English department of the University claims the most authors, with five members on the list.
The booklet, which bears the title of, “a Partial List of the Publications of the Faculty of the College of Liberal Arts, University of Southern California,” is, according to an announcement on its first page, the precourser of a complete bibliography of the publications of the faculty.
The names of the professors, together with their books and articles, follow:
Gilbert Ellis Bailey: Ten books and pamphlets on geology and geography; seven geologic and other maps for the U. S. Land Office, the California State Mining Bureau, etc.; and a long list of articles in the Engineering and Mining Journal, the California Mining Journal, the Scientific American, Science and Engineering, Harper's Magazine, McClure’s Magazine, the Overland Monthly, etc.

“U. S. C. serves a great city and is in a peculiar position for future usefulness. We are destined to meet the needs of a great city, while still holding to the peculiar advantages of serv ing a still larger field. But we mast meet the social, commercial and economic needs of Los Angeles,” he continued.
“Our opportunity for wider service ; is clearly our challenge to greater de-j velopment. A larger faculty, more spacious buildings, increased depart-' ments and courses will be needed to i meet the increasing demands of a rapidly growing institution,” finished I the president.

VISITS AT
U.S.C. OH JOURNEY
Don R. Almy of Sigma Alpha Epsilon May Speak at Rally Here
Don R. Almy, man of great prominence in the fraternity world, is visiting the Southland. He is secretary of the National Fraternity Council, but his visit to Southern California is more in the form of a rest than .in his official capacity.
Mr. Almy is noted throughout the fraternity world as an organizer. His impressive writings and talks will go down in fraternity history as one of the greatest series on the organization of fraternity. Deeds, more so than words, have awarded him the great respect of all who have heard him and studied his works. His work has been devoted to the carrying on of fraternity spirit and understanding, to the creation of manhood through fraternity influence, and to the benefits of all fraternity men as they leave college and go into the business world. He has been greatly responsible for the onward movement among fraternities, and in proving to the world the benefit and use of the fraternity in creating the highest and most useful type of American manhood.
Mr. R. Almy, while a successful business man and an executive of note, is very vitally interested in the development of fraternities in the West. Though here for a rest, he has visited many of the Greek organizations here.
MAY VISIT U. S. C.
He is particularly interested in U. S. C. because of the establishment of
TALK BY MR. CROW
Friday evening, December 16, the U. S. C. Press Club gathered at the Union League Club to hold the third meeting of the season. The speaker of the evening, Mr. D. Crow, district superintendent of the Associated Press, proved highly interesting. The food was fine and the talk even better. Mr. Crow has been with the Associated Press for nearly a quarter of a century, naving gone into the service as a very young man.
The importance of the work of the Associated Press to the newspaper world can hardly be overestimated. This work, as described by Mr. Crow, is briefly this: To date the Press includes 1,285 members, which are scattered throughout the cities of the world. It is the duty of the A. P. to send out reports on all important facts of interest to the world at large to all of its members.
The standing of the Associated Press is such that these reports are accepted by the reading public as being authentic. If even a slight error is made in any wire corrections from all over the country come into the headquarters demanding explanation.
Old Man Pluvius Turns On Water
About every year around the winter season old Father Time and Chief Rain-in-the-Face invade the balmy California atmosphere loaded with a brand new set of goat gland overcoats and rubber boots}. In other words, the usual weather turns and the weather man guesses wrong again.
As long as the world has been tipping on its axis it'has had to contend with weather. For that reason the outside of the globe is cold and the inside, near the heart, is as warm as a well-toasted forest fire. And since old man terra firma has had to live with the weather the inhabitants of the world are more or less effected by the different whimsical changes of the sejfso’V's fireless cooker.
^ |,'ow, for instance, some years ago the people who lived on the earth were havi:\£ a good time cooking with a stick of asbestos and hunting lions with a pea shooter. Everybody was contented to let well enough alone; but lo and behold, if the weather didn’t come along and change the whole situation. For forty days and forty nights it rained so hard that everybody died with thirst except a man named Noah, who had a well-stocked boat.
Then after that the weather began to change and people sprung up like weeds; every place that the ground was dry enough to walk around without getting water in the nostrils. Today we have the same trouble; that is, the weather is still with us except that it has divided into different parts and each part is called by a different name, according to how it happens to strike the immediate persons which it surrounds.	,
VACATION WEATHER
During the vacations Chief Rain-in-the-Face went into hysterics and laughed himself into a fit of copious perspiration. Every time anyone wanted to get out of doors and play in the mud, he had to return to the bathroom and blow bubbles in the family horse trough. The only thing out of the ordinary in the whole weather during this vacation was the fact that the weather man guessed it right once out of seven. Prety good for a man that has never worked for a living.
Coming back to the campus, we find that Jack Frost has played havoc with the temperamental natures of those who have such. Frost not only makes the beasts irrational, critical, hypocritical, supersensitive, but also down with the colic. Students will pace the sidewalks muttering to themselves; they will look quickly around the campus when a gust of wind flits playfully across the lawn; and insist on closing the windows when a professor is talking.
Besides being responsible for the un-controlable blatterings of the students who are ice bound around the roots of the hair, the weather is bound to effect the examinations because the professors as well as the students, the hifch as well as the mighty, the aristocracy as well as the plebians, are effected by the wetting days of weather.
RULE ADOPTED TO STOP LOSS TO UNIVERSITY
Warren Bovard Presents Open Letter to Merchants in University District
REPORT LOSS TO POLICE
Steps Taken to Protect Majority of Students Through New Regulations
Because of the fact that a forger has been detected within the University’s ranks, Warren B. Bovard, comptroller, has been forced to issue a warning to the merchants and the students in and near U. S. C. It has been customary in the past to cash the students ’ checks at the Treasurer’s office, but, on account of the recent developments which have brought to light several instances of forgery, students will hereafter be required to definitely prove their integrity and identitfy to the satisfaction of the teller, whenever they desire to take advantage of the accommodations offered.
Following is a letter warning the merchants near U. S. C. to take extra precautions wnen cashing checks for students:
To the Nearby Merchants:
The University greatly appreciates the accommodation you have offered its students in the matter of cashing checks. For your own protection it seems necessary to warn you that there is an expert “check operator,” either registered in the University or posing as a student.
It is suggested that you take extra precautions to identify those who wish to cash checks.
For your protection and our own the University has notified the detective bureau and will prosecute the guilty party.
Very truly yours,
(Signed) W. B. BOVARD, Comptroller. Cheerful co-operation is requested by the comptroller in the n e w, although stringent rule, which is set forth in the following letter:
To the Students, University of Southern California:
The University of Southern California has endeavored to render (Continued on Page 4)

Organize Speakers Unit At Five New York Colleges
Plan to Arouse International Consciousness Among Students of City
NEW YORK, Jan. 5.—The students of five colleges in this city have organized to arouse a greater sense of responsibility in international affairs among the student body of the city, and to meet the general demands of women’s clubs, churches, schools, etc., for speakers on the issues raised by the Washington Conference. Teams of speakers are being sent out by Union Theological Seminary, Barnard College, Columbia College, General Seminary and Teachers’ College to address meetings in and about the city on problems of Internationalism.
