TROJANS
HENDERSON IS GLOOMY ON EVE OF BIG BATTLE
By MAXWELL STILES
Out yonder in the blazing dusk of the Golden Gate, where growls the Bear, a serpentine of riotous color will presently wind its way over the green sward of California Field. It Vill be the aftermath of the new football classic of the West—the “big game,” the struggle between the University of California, and the University of Southern California for the tanbark championship of Western America.
Something in the swish of those thousand pom-poms as they move in rhythmic, wild procession over the historic gridiron will tell the story of the game. Colors Gold and Blue will tell of the triumph of the Bear; Cardinal and Gold will bear noisy evidence of the supremacy of the stalwart youth of the Southland.
Virtually unknown to the big, wild world, enigmatic in strength, twenty-eight U. S. C. football stars, accompanied by the usual train

Offering the students and friends of the University of Southern California what is perhaps the most unusual bargain in higher entertainment and educational values ever announced in Southern California, tickets are now on sale for the Great 13 Events series which will be presented in the Bovard Auditorium. If purchased singly at downtown prices, the tickets for the whole series would cost altogether $30. Students may purchase season tickets to the series for $3.50.
Both student and professional attractions are listed on the schedule. They are, the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra, three concerts, Alice Gentle, Helen Stanley, and Cecil Fanning, in rec’tals; the University Men’s Glee Club in concert; the Lance and Lute production of Jose Echegaray’s drama, “The Great Galeoto;’' the junior class play; the College of Oratory play; and the University Choral Union in productions of Mendelssohn’s “Hymn of Praise” and the “Elijah.”
Not only are the students offered an unusual bargain, but the students themselves are to be benefitted by the returns from the series.'Though profits from the entertainments will be small, they will be sufficient to equip the stage of the Bovard Audi-
Thirty members of the University band are going to the California game one the Yale., They are to play in the boat both going way up and coming back, that is, if they feel capable of it.
Bert Teazel, formerly band leader at Polytechnic high school, is now leading the U. S. C. band. Band members enthusiastically say that he is the best leader they have ever had.
The band is larger this year than last, as it now has a membership of over forty. They have been practicing continually during the last week in order to make a good showing and lend strong support to the team at the California game.

ALCHEMISTS TO MEET
(Continued on Page 3)
Members of the Alchemist Club will meet in the Chemistry lecture room, Thursday at 12:45. The program for the year’s work will be arranged and the packing of fall alchemists and those eligible for membership is requested. All members, both old and new, are urged to be present.
SOON TO GIVE SPANISH DRAMA IN AUDITORIUM
The first student attraction on the Jniversity Great 13 Events series will be the Lance and Lute production of Echegaray’s drama. “The Great Galeoto,” which will be presented in the auditorium of the new Bovard Administration building on the night of No vember 17. This will be the first presentation of the play in Los Angeles. William Faversham, the English actor, appeared in the American version of the play, which was produced under the name of “The World and His Wife.” Faversham was also in the movie version which carried the same name.
“The Great Galeoto” is a unique play in that it is the only known attempt to dramatize idle talk. Though talk which is free from deliberate malicious intent, ordinarily, would not be suspected of offering much material for dramatic treatment, “The Great Galeoto” is among the most moving and thrilling of modern plays according to Elizabeth R. Hunt, the noted American critic.
PLAY IS MASTERPIECE
“ ‘The Great Galeoto,' ” according to Dr. Expinosa of the Spanish department at Stanford University, "is one of the great masterpieces of modern literature and should be known to all students of Spanish. This play is un-
Breakfast Will Be Served Within the Portals of the Golden Gate
With every deck in shining readiness and with a passenger list of hundreds of University Southern California students and alumni, bound for the battlefield at Berkeley, the god ship Yale will sail out into the deep blue waters of the Pacific Friday afternoon.
As the big steamer breaks away from the locks the thirty-piece band carried by the students will play “Three Cheers for S. C.,” and the “Alma Mater,” the battle songs of the campus.
Brilliant cardinal and gold pennants and pom-poms will flutter along the rail as the gang-plank is lifted and the stiff ocean breezes blow in past the rocky fortress at Point Fermin. CAMPUS NOTABLES GO From port to starboard, upper deck and below, the steamer is crowded with campus notables of the past and present. Many students are driving north, but the official route Is via the Yale. Never before has an ocean liner been chartered by^. university to carry rooters to a game.
Every eye will be turned northward upon the gridiron at the University of California. In the shadow of the Cam-panille the two strongest teams of the coast will battle for supremacy, and the right to represent the West at Pasadena N«w Year’s Day.
WILL SEEK SOLITUDE
Paens of joy will float skyward from every throat, while the boat rides in the protected waters of Los Angeles harbor, but upon reaching the ohonpy deen. outside the breakwater, the less hardy of the sea-faring Trojans will retire far from the maddening throng, and seek a quiet spot at the rail, where a pensive eye can be trained on the receding shore line. Heartrending cries will be made for the steward, and the panacea of all ills —ice water. Odors from the kitchens will be about as popular as woolen blankets in the land of tire Hottentot.
NIGHT IS JOYTIME
Night-time will bring fresh agony to the suffering ones, and additional joy to the others. One by one the lights on the boat will be turned on; from out of the east will rise the moon, turning the inky waters to silver. Prom the far-off line of hills will flash light-house signals. After the dinner in the luxurious saloon, the Veranda-Cafe ballroom will open its doors to the students. Jazz airs will be played by the Yale orchestra, with interludes by the S. C. band, while impromptu stunts will be given by many passengers. For the duration of football excursion all stringent ship rules are to be waived. There will be music in the ballroom until gray dawn, if the young sailors wish it.
JOY CROWNED KING
Very different from the days of war, when the Yale plied the waters of the English Channel as an American transport, is tomorrow’s excursion. King Joy will be monarch of the boat

a howling mob of cucoos, tonight will parade up Broadway and east on Fifth street to the Southern Pacific station. At eight o’clock the team will leave on the Lark for Berckeley, where, on Saturday afternoon, they will meet the University of California’s “wonder team” in what promises to be the most spectacular and gruelling gridiron contest of the season.
GOING NORTH With the team on its way, the howling mob will return to the University. Then for the fun. Bonfires will keep the city warm and frostless, throughout the night. Yells and songs, and shrieks of countless co-eds, will keep the whole neighborhood informed as to what U. S. C. thinks of its chances for victory.
A great number of autos will start northward today, but the bulk of the Trojan rooters, more than 2,000 in number, are migrating towards the scene of the big game tomorrow. Accompanied by the University band, a couple of jaz orchestras, a trio of yell leaders, de luxe and plenty of jazz of all kinds, undergraduates and alumni alike will crowd aboard the Yale at 3 o’clock tomorrow afternoon.
It will be a wild ride up the coast, sea sickness and war tax included. The boat will dump the bunch off in Berkeley Saturday morning, and the stage will be set for the football classic of the west.
No one will think of coming back until after the game, and if the Trojans upset the dope and win, it will be SOME trip home Saturday night and Sunday morning. No church this time.
AUTOS IN USE
Those who can't make the grade on the Yale are planning on going by auto tonight or tomorrow. A few will “bum” their way up, and talking the distance into consideration it is seen that the U. S. C. team will be well supported. Those who must remain in Los Angeles will be at Bovard Field, where between quarters of the freshman game, developments of the big scrap will be announced by megaphone.
The championship of Western America hangs in the balance over this game Saturday. The Bears have eliminated Oregon and Washington State. The Oregon Aggies were defeated by Stanford last Saturday.
U. S. C., California and Stanford are the only undefeated teams in the West. Californians all. With Bears strong favorites over Stanford, they will play an Eastern team in Pasadena New Year’s Day again if they can conquer the fighting Trojans. The Bears have everything to lose if they fail to win Saturday’s game. U. S. C. has nothing to lose and the world to win. California has a reputation to maintain, U. S. C. a reputation to make.
MAY PLAY NEW YEAR’S
A victory for the Southerners, followed by a win from Washington State on December 3, will mean that a Los Angeles team will represent the West against the East’s best on January 1. To win Saturday fcvould be to electrify the nation. Back East, since California rose up and whipped Ohio State into a pulp last year, they have come to regard the Bears as one of the greatest football teams in the country.
Few have heard much of U. S. C. They cannot conceive why we make such a fuss over the game. If the Trojans can down the Bears, it will be a bigger upset than when Centre College beat Harvard, or Chicago trounced Princeton.
California is a heavy favorite. Betting odds are about I to 5. California is crippled, but her taunted boast last year lay in her substitutes. “Three men for every position,” was the slogan. In some cases they will have to start second string men. But what of that? Three men for every posi-
