LAW SCHOOL WILL organize campaign team for the t*»n miltior, dollars the University is seeking, and will get behind the drive with aii ihe force in their power, according to the student body prerident, Leonard Thomas.
The alumni of ihat college are al-roady organised, ami have assured the men iu «harge of the drive that th*5 graduates from Law will he among tin* most enthusiastic boosters. They rea'ize that tix ir degree will be worth more as soon as the University of Southern California is more firmly established in endowment.
JUNIORS HAVE DECIDED to ap propriate a certain portion of the proceeds of the junior play to the endowment campaign. Just what the percentage will be has not yet been decided. but those in charge intimate that mort of the profits are expected to be devoted to the raising of ten million dollars.
If all the University organizations would follow the example of the juniors in this regard, the campaign would surely go “over" with a’.l the vim that youth and enthusiasm can muster. Tho juniors are to be congratulated upon their work for the University.

Little Sister Sends Willie’s Heart A flutter
Dear Folks:
Oh nia. but 1 is smitten again. You know this here new girl I told you about named May B. Knott, what 1 met here. Last night 1 took her to the Kxtravaganzer in “Nightmare" my racing raring flivver. I went to her home to geter and the best looking girl in the world come to the door and let me in. I stands there with my mouth ajar. 1 comes to find out after I comes to U. mins. later that she is May's sister. Hetty Knott. 1 is sure in love with her but 1 don’t see how I can ever get her hooked up on my side. This low brow Musty Supher can have Hittie now Oh Ma.
THE PLOT THICKENS
1 is going take my kick side, Mike Harr, over to call on the Knott girls next week and have him rush May and beat my time with her. Then 1 will be free to run a muck with Hetty.
I ll bet Hittie will die when she sees me with my car and Betty. I can't write you much ma. 1 is just too excitement to say much. 1 know my I'lan are gonna work.
1 goes out for track a coupla nights ago but 1 don’t know whether I'll go *out no more or not as I'm in love with this girl so. 1 don't see no use to track anyway. You run as fast as you can around that track and then you’re just where you started. They like to work a guy hard. The coach said I'd make a good hurdler. 1 told hint if 1 wasn't a pledge he couldn't get away with calling me that. The crazy coach wasn't intent with having me run straight but put darned sticks up tor me to pump and then agin ever time we got ready to run he would shoot a gun off and scare me so I couldn't run

Statistical Impression on Those Uninformed
“Is U. S. C. really entitled to the $10,000,000 which she seeks to acquire in the coining endowment campaign?”1 Tlie question is seldom raised, but for the benefit of the doubting few and for those who insist upon the facts, data lias been collected which re- j moves even the slightest doubt regarding the University's right to the sum asked for.
Seven million, two hundred and three thousand dollars is th*' sum spent annually by U. S. C. students in board, room and books. This is the amount of money which U. S. C. stu-4 dents actually put in Los Angeles. Compared with the money involved in the operation of local commercial industries, the sum spent by U. S. C. students ranks with that of the first twenty-five leading industries.
FIGURE IT OUT Following is an estimate of the money put into the city by several important industries:
Sheet metal................$3,000,000
Leather goods.............. 1.400,000
Fish canneries............. 9,000.000

Voluntary donations instead of a regular semester assessment will be the method of raising funds for the present senior class during the coming semester. Lindley Bothwell, newly ciected treasurer of the (lass, surprised the seniors at the regular class meeting yesterday morning by proposing the abolition of class dues and the adoption of ihe voluntary donation scheme.
Bothwell proposed that each mem-i her of the class donate a quarter at every regular class meeting. The yell king said that since attendance w-as required at these meetings it would be a simple matter of raising funds for the class for every member to donate at the meetings.
The old method of individually seeing each member of the class and ; collecting a dollar from them is cumbersome and unsatisfactory. Bothwell ! said. Students do not miss the quarters when collected in four install-; meuts, the treasurer suggested.
James Mussatti moved the adoption of the “Bothwell Project,” which mo tion carried after a heated argument. In the collection made at the end of the meeting. $35.20 was obtained.

Usual Second Semester Decrease Fails to Make Appearance at Any College
Despite flunks, conditions, and all the other causes that make students leave college in the middle of the year, the total enrollment of all the U. S.

Belated arrivals are still lined up at the desk eager to pay out dad’s money for U. S. C. instruction.
Enrollment in the various extension courses is expected to be fully as large as for the previous semester. The total enrollment for extension work has about l.">00 for last term.
EXTENSION INCREASES The fact that the total for the second semester’s extension work is as large as that for the first semester is a particularly good sign for extension work. For. according to the extension office, the second semester’s enrollment is generally less than that for the first period.
Particular enthusiasm is being shown in the three extension courses is real estate methods and in the course in investments under Professor Olson.
