GREEK LETTER ADDICTS GET SCANDAL NEWS
Coach Calls In Willie’s Suit-He Resigns Job
Dear Folks:
Well ma. I has gave up baseball all together. I told you I was gonna play a nother game and 1 did but I ain’t so good as I thought, so I has quit the team. I got mad. The coach don’t need to think I'm gonna keep on coming out to play after his taking my suit away.
Now, you see, after my disastrous first base stuff, I figures I better star in something besides batter, so I starts to pitching. The coach has some line up on the frosh team by this time but no pitcher who he wants to send up agin this Pollyhood high team. So he sees me throwing and he calls me over to him.
RUNS 'EM RAGGED “I is gonna give you a nother chanct” he says. “I gotta a infield and a outfield what is perfect and all I need is some one to Bling the ball over the plate and not walk anybody.”
T tells him that is me and so last Saturday the game starts.
Ma. we has grapes (technical word) with them guys for eight innings. When we starts the ninths, we is 2 runs in the lead and they got their bats first. I has been sailing the balls over the pan good and hard and no{ not using any curves and the coach is tickled to death at me. That infield sure was good. These Poly guys busts out the ball hard, but the infield gathers In hot bee-liners and mean bouncers. The outfield runs clean to the fence and catches flies and never misses a one. Gosh we is going good I is pitching a not hit game only my support sure has been playing the game.

Twenty-five prominent business Arms of Los Angeles have signed up for display space and are showing much enthusiasm over the prospects. Fifty thousand dollars’ worth of merchandise will be crowded into the “Y” Auditorium, combining the latest features in the lines that twenty-five business houses carry, and displaying thc creative art of manufacturers of shoestrings and pianos, dishpans and wearing apparel, et cetera.
FREE EATS Free lunch will be dispensed to all Trojans who can crowd around the exhibits of the Forrest Stove Works and Jevne’s. These firms announce that there should be no hesitation about attending the exhibit, since the ‘eats" are free.
Atmosphere for the exhibit will be produced by elaborate decorations which have been furnished by Francis. the Florist. He, co-operating with Don Scott, who has the matter in charge, will decorate the hall in ferns, palms, flowers, and the colors of the University—Cardinal and Gold.
Adding to the pleasant aroma of wafers and flowers, music—feet-inspir-ing music—will permeate the air of the exhibit. Two of the most popular dance orchestras of the University have consented to furnish this additional atmosphere and will alternate while producing It.
He-Man' Number of Wampus Will Be Out Thursday
“He-Man,'’ says Al Wesson. And the girls ponder. Perhaps it’s another play, or the campus humorist has suddenly felt the pangs of spring, or— “He-Man,” continues the windjammer, “is what we’ve decided to call Wampus this issue. It will be out Thursday, for sure.” U-no-me-al intimated that it might be necessary to charge twenty-five cents to cover costs of publication, but “just the same,” says he, “we expect everybody to want one of our ‘He-Man* numbers.
“You know, this coming number takes after me more than any of the others. We treat ’em rough and often.”
Al was riding in one of Henry’s coupes. He didn’t say who the “'em” referred to.
Announcing April 28 as the date definitely decided upon for the third big all-university party of the year, Francis Cattell, new vice-president of the A.S.B., this morning outlined plans lor making the event one of the most memorable In the history of U.S.C.
The affair, which is to be formal for both men and women, will be given at the Alexandria instead of the Ambassador, as previously announced.
Terpsichorean festivities wil be interrupted in the middle of the even ing by a brief program, consisting of special vocal, piano and whistling numbers. Campbell's orchestra will supply music for the dancing.
LAST BIG AFFAIR In lieu of a formal receiving line. Miss Cattell is arranging for a floating reception committee, who will act as hosts and have as their responsibility the entertainment of the guests.
The formal, which is to be the last big social affair of the ye»r in which the entire student body will participate, is open free of charge to every student of the university.
“We hope to have a large crowd.”
1 said Miss Cattell. “The success of ! the university parties this year has demonstrated the possibility of making these affairs outstanding social events in the life of the university.
STAGS MAKE DIFFICULTY “The chief difficulty we have met is the large number of men who come without girls, which necessarily makes the crowd hard to handle.
“It is the duty of every organization on the campus to get behind these student body functions and back them to the limit.”
Among the honored guests will be Dr. and Mrs. Lawrence Tyndale Lowrey, official chaperons ot' the senior class, and Dr. and Mrs. Gaw.
Adah KieinSmid is in charge of the program for the evening.

Over 300 lovers of forensic speech were present to absorb the hour of real argumentation and oratory. Dr.
Gilliland, head of the History Department, acted as chairman of the occasion.
BITTER ARGUMENT
The two Colorado debaters displayed much skill and sound reasoning in the presentation of their cases, and they proved themselves capable of meeting the occasion. Throughout the entire verbal combat the Trojan team was confronted with arguments and facts that looked insurmountable.
“Bill” Barber and “A. W.” Griewe outspoke, outwitted, and outclassed the foes from Colorado, both in constructive and rebuttal arguments.
Both Trojan orators possessed excellent form in delivery.

Trojan Decisively Drub
Wildcats On Desert Soil
Arizona’s fighting Wildcats were no match for Dean Cromwell s Trojans on the cinder path, and the Cardinal and Gold flyers walked away with the long end of an 80 V2 to 41 y2 score in the Arizona-11. S. C. dual meet in Tucson, Saturday.
Otto Anderson was high point man and individual star of the meet, rolling up his usual quota of 18 points in the afternoon’s pastime. Otto took care of his specialties, the high and low hurdle races and the broad jump, as usual, winning first in all of them.
He also grabbed second in the century dash.
Swede Anderson and Yale Mart/ were next in line it) the score column, with ten points each. Swede | had a walkaway for tirst place in the shot and discus, and while winning first in the shot, put out the iron pellet 46 feet 5% inches i for a new University of Southern California record. The former record of 46 feet 5 inches w;is made by Bud Houser last year.
VERSATILE YALE
Yale Martz demonstrated his versatility by breaking into the limelight as one of the country’s best sprinters when he won the 100-yard dash in ten seconds flat. The dash artists that can negotiate the century in even time are few and far between, and in taking the measure of the desert dwellers in that time Martz put himself in the front rank of sprintdom. Yale also took an easy first in the 220.
Ivan Johnson took first in the 440. and Aden Hughes led the Arizona men to the tape for second place. In the half mile the desert dwellers picked up and took first place in the most hotly contested race of the day. Stone of Arizona and Huber Smutz of S. C. fought neck and neck down the finish.
Stone winning out in the final lunge for the tape. Woods of S. C. finished third.
NO DISTANCE MEN
There were no Trojan entries in the mile and two-mile, and so the Wildcats were able to gather eighten of the forty-odd points without opposition.
Arizona broke into the first-place column but once in thc field events, with a win in the pole vault. They were also able to tie for another when Bluett of the Wildcats and Davis of the Trojans were deadlocked at 5 feet 6 inches in the high jump.
With the Wildcats disposed of, there (CONTINUED ox pack

Determined to make the Service Campaign this year a success, Georg# Kerslake, campaign chairman, has organized his force of worker* for the drive which is scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday of next week. We hope to raise $3,000.” declared Kerslake, yesterday, “without resortjng to a cut-throat policy. Tbe students themselves voted for the idea of sending a U. S. C. student to China several years ago. It is now our business to collect funds in order to keep Harold Harris, our present representative at Peking, another year in the Orient. I know that the student body will not fail a project so enthusiastically begun just a short while back.
“There seems to be some misunderstanding about the Service Campaign,” said Kerslake, “which should be cleared up as soon as possible. For some reason many students have connected the Service Campaign with the Y. M. C. A. Campaign. In reality there is no connection between tbe two. The Service Campaign is strictly a student body affair, and the student body of the University is entirely responsible for the welfare of our foreign missionary.
