My Darling Daughter:
It is now nine days since I have received word from you. Your Dental friends have caused me no end of worry; you must write oftener. I am sending you coming-out gown in the next mail. Your father has met an entertaining young man. I believe he has but recently graduated from the Veterinarian College and seems to be quite nice. I do wish you would take up with some man of his station rather than keep company with the type of fellows you mentioned in your letter previous to the last.
You tell in your last letter about cutting Mr. Chapel thrice. Dear, you should be a bit more careful in the future. Is he convalescing? We had quite a cha* with the young gentleman I have mentionel above, and among other things he told us of a dancing

Trojans Are Hosts To Southland Debaters
Debating representatives from six Southern California colleges and universities are guests of the University of Southern California today, at a conference on forensic relations. Alan Nichols, of the School of Speech, at whose request the meeting has been called, and Roland Maxwell, debating manager, represent U. S. C. at the uent as they did out’at Redlands on I table. The delegates are holding their
I sessions in Hoose Hall.
The conference Is called for the pur-! pose of forming an intercollegiate de-I bating league. It is proposed to gather the University of Redlands, the Uni-j versity of California—Southern branch, I Caltek, Whittier, Pomona, Occidental j and U. S. C. into a conference, with a definite schedule, and in other ways place debating upon the same level I with other intercollegiate contests, j Among the notable delegates present j are Prof. John R. Macarthur of Caltek, national president of Pi Kappa Delta, forensic fraternity, and Prof. E. R. Nichols, vice-president of the same organization. Following the conference, the delegates will be entertained by Delta Sigma Rho, national honorary debating fraternity, at a banquet at the Sigma Alpha Epsilon house.

“You Never Can Tell,” by George Bernard Shaw, was presented by the Junior class last night in the Bovard Auditorium. The attraction was the first of the Great Thirteen series to draw a representative crowd from the University. As a whole, the performance was a more satisfactory one than the recent presentation of Echegaray’s “The Great Galeoto,” though it must be said that the last named play represented a much more dicult undertaking.
The Shaw play is a comedy, and is an example of the noted playwright at his best. It has always been popular as a college play, and the reason for its popularity becomes more evident with every presentation. The comedy of this play is of a farcical nature, and at the same time it calls for a certain amount of intelligence for its fullest appreciation. Unlike as in the case oi a pure farce, one feels that he has seen something worth while after witnessing a performance of “You Never Can Tell.” Underneath a coat of froth and frivolity, Shaw always has a load of bricks concealed, and he does not fail to throw his missiles whenever opportunity presents itself.
Briefly, the plot tells of the unwilling husband who returns to his family after years of absence. He does not approve of the frivolity of his twins, the primness of his oldest daughter, or the hostile attitude of his wife. There are two love affairs running through the play, that of the oldest daughter and a dentist, and the twin and a young lawyer.
The players presenting the Shavian comedy were more than satisfactory in their various roles. Outstanding members of the cast were Bob Reynolds, as Mr. Crampton, and Betty Wheat, as Mrs. Chandon. The twins, Phillip and Dorothy, played by Howard Bridegrom and Berdine Jackman, were attractive in a short dance in the latter part of the play. Others in the cast were the mother, Mary Mey-ersick; Valentine, Julian Summers; McComas, Bob Broadwell; Bohun, Roland Maxwell; the waiter, who voices the philosophy of the author, Maxwell Chamberlain; another waiter, Murray Leiffer; the maid, Frances Cattell.
Scenery and lighting effects were particularly effective. John Oliver and Mr. Wupperman deserve credit for their work in this connection.
Miss Florence Hubbard, of the College of Oratory faculty, directed the production of “You Never Can Tell.” The success of the Junior play is due largely to the efforts of Miss Hubbard.
The Trojan basket ball Temple was no more made for defeat than were beauty marks made for Bull Montana, Lon Chanye or Eric von Stroheim, Gwynn Wilson insists. Perhaps he’s right.
After a nerve-racking first half, in which the score wobbled uncertainly many times, U. S. C.’s balloon chasers shot a dozen baskets and took the tick out of Caltek with a 35-22 victory. The game wras a game all the way, with the first half ending in a 11-11 tie. The thrills lasted until the last six minutes of the tussle, when Boeck dropped three oranges in the bucket in a row, thereby settling the question as to who would win.
NO MELON FOR KUHNS
In the first play of the game, Hind-ricks tipped the melon to Kuhns. Hickey, Caltek guard, mixed with him, and Kuhns twisted his ankle in the tangle which resulted. Graham went into Campbell’s guard, “Cam” taking Kuhn’s forward. Although his injury was not serious it prevented him from sampling Caltek steel. Both teams spent several minutes illustrating team wrork, while the score remained neutral.

The All-University Formal Reception and Ball will be held Thursday, March 2, 1922, at the Alexandria.
Fringed chaps, broad sombreros and shirts of weird and noisy hues gave the campus the look of a “rodeo” yesterday. And in truth it was just that —a round-up of many a stray dollar bill and vagrant shekel.
This is the second and last of the subscription drives screduled for the ’23 El Rodeo. Figures must be sent out for the contracts within a few days. This fact makes any further campaigning for subscriptions of no avail. Those poor unfortunates who neglect or procrastinate in purchasing the book will indeed live to rue the day, according to the powers who have in charge the destiny of the volume. It is to be bigger and “more expensive” than ever before.
FIRST DAY RESULTS
At the end of the first day of the second drive the mangers were feeling extremely optimistic over the state of the El Rodeo exchequer. By noon 300 subscriptions had been added to the fund, which figure will undoubtedly be duplicated in today’s campaign.
a long shot that should have counted three points instead of two. Linn Larson scored a tally for Caltek on a foul. One of eleven chances, Linn sunk eight in the hole, besides connecting on several long, impossible field attempts.
Campbell dribbled down the field and shot, Hindricks following up and slipping it in. White brought the total to 7 for S. C., while L. Larson made his first long distance connection. The score stood 7-3 for some minutes, until some fast footwork on the part of Caltek tied the score. White, aided by Campbell and Hindrichs, hooped two more counters, but a chance shot by Groat and two converted fouls tied the score. The half was featured by the brilliant team work of Campbell, White and Hindrichs, while little Charley Graham just fitted in emergencies. Axe and Moyse piared very well under Caltek’s basket.
CALTEK IN LEAD
L. Larson scored a foul at the beginning of the second half, and Caltek led 12-11. White snuck one in, and S. C. was a point ahead. Groat gave Caltek the lead again, but Campbell turned the tables after galloping down (Continued on Page 3)
MEET STRONG TEAM AT
In the midst of a very successful season, the frosh basketball artists will tangle with the strong Hollywood five tonight on the “Movie Town” court. Although having defeated this gang once, the frosh are looking for a snappy comeback and a lively brawl is expected.
So far this season the U. S. C. babes have wiped up on over ninety per cent of the opposition and are ready to take on all comers. They have mauled the city champions, Manual Arts, into submission, and are still anxious for gore.
Gwynn Wilson, graduate manager, is angling for a game with either the California or Stanford frosh, but no definite date has been set.
In making up one of the best frosh teams ever produced at U. S. C., Coach Lee has the following men to draw from: Foster, Krisel, Augustine, Bone, Herman. Chabre, Kovey, Cho-tiner. Mainland and Fisher.

COSMOPOLITAN NOTICE
Those who are interested to see or desire to buy the Cosmopolitan Club’s group picture taken yesterday may please see the undersigned.
C. Z. VALENZUELA,
Treasurer.
U. S. C.’s gym team will be a strong contender in the city championship meet to be held at the Los Angeles Atheltic club tonight.
Those who were present at the chirs-tening of the new basketball pavilion will remember the thrilling exhibition put on by the amateurs between halves. This was only a fair sample of what the team cna do, as they had very little time in which to prepare their stunts. Tonight’s meet is a little early in the season for finished work, but U. S. C. is expected to cop most of the medals.
Coach Lee has men entered in almost every event. The complete list of entries follows:
Tumbling—Settles. Mundock, Kisel.
Horizontals—Shultz, Grant, Mart, Toothaker.
Side Horse — Grant, Toothaker, Walker.
Rings—Martz, Chapman (captain), Murdock, Shultz.
Parallels—Chapman, Krisel, Settles, Murdock, Norviel.
Long Horse—Shultz, Taylor, Chapman, Krisel.
In the weight lifting and rope climbing U. S. C. has no entries. If any one in the university can put up 500 pounds or climb a 20-foot rope in five seconds. Coach Lee would be pleased to sign that individual up.
Henry Millar of the Western Lithographing Company addrsesed the Advertising class yesterday morning in another of the “Brass Tacks” talks scheduled by Mr. Goodnow for his journalism students this year. Lithographic engraving was the general subject of Mr. Millar’s talk, and he had with him many examples which showed the different processes he described.
The importance of lithography in art work was brought out in a number of paintings whose reproductions were shown, work by Coles Phillips and other prominent artists in the commercial field being included. As many as twelve colors are reproduced by the lithographic process, according to Mr. Millar, who said, however, that five and seven were the more com mon numbers of colors used.
Lithography was accidentally discovered in 1798 by a German Bavarian, who noticed an imprint made by acci dent one family wash day. Even today Bavaria is the only country that supplies the world with lithographic stone, which is a superfine limestone. In the rough it costs about eighteen cents a pound.
GREASE AND WATER
Antipathy between grease and water is the basis of lithography, in which it differs radically from printnig, said Mr. Millar, who went into somewhat technical descriptions of the offset and direct processes. Lithography as a progressive form of printing was emphasized, the speaker stating that even in his own memory he had seen men take out by eye, as it were, the colors in a picture, and paint them by hand for the different colored plates necessary to reproduce the same picture correctly. This is now done by machine.]
Lithography’s value to advertising was emphasized, the main thing to remember', according to Mr. Millar, being the necessity for long runs of the work desired, 5,000 copies being the economic minimum for a firm.
TONIGHT’S GAME SETTLES U.S.C. ARIZONA TILT
Sage Brush Boys Have Wholesome Respect for Gordon Campbell
LAST OF SERIES PLAYED
Visiting Casaba Slingers Use to Such Large Floors
Not
Whether the Wildcats go home with the Trojan shield, or minus their pelts, or, perchance, with a divided result, will be determined tonight when U. S. C. and Arizona mix on the hardwood floor of “Wilson” Hall for the last of a series of four games. The first two were played at Arizona, the Wildcats winning the first encounter 36-28, nad the Trojans redeeming themselves on the following evening by a beautiful tune of 46-20. Results of the game last night wt-re received too late for publication in today’s issue, but the affair tonight is the deciding tilt.
VICTORY—TIE, OR DEFEAT
Without doubt the scrimmage in the basket ball temple tongiht will be the most exciting and interesting ever held in the new hall. The five which suffered defeat last night will be out for a victory to even honors, while the victorious squad will fight to settle who’s who.
The Wildcats have a wholesome respect for Gordon Campbell, according to the “Arizona Wildcat.” A quotation from its columns, after the recent contests held on the desert, reads: “ . . . most of their points were made by clever team work and the marvelous work of Campbell, Trojan guard.”
It is expected that the visitors will be a bit lost on the spacious floor of the new gym, as the Trojans found the corners of the Arizona court very close to the center, and were consequently handicapped until they became “acclimated.” In the game tonight both teams will be equally at home on the large court.
It is expected that the seating capacity of the structure will be taxed to the utmost, as the game is the most important one, to date, ever played in the new home of the casaba.
If Kuhns’ ankle is in shape, it is probable that he and Kenny WThite will start at the forwards, Hinrichs at center, and Axe and Campbell at the guards. Graham, Boeck and Shapiro will also get a dab at the Cats, it is expected, during the course of the evening.
Slonaker and Tovrea at forwards, Thomas at center, and Wallace and Hobbs at guards, will be Arizona’s lineup, while Lockling, guard, and Pistor, center, will substitute.

REDLANDS WINS UNANIMOUSLY FROM TROJANS
In spite of a unanimous decision in favor of Redlands Tuesday, at the U. S. C[-Redlands debate, the contest itself was not nearly as one sided as the decision would indicate.
U. S. C.’s defeat was due to a large extent, to the fact that the Redlands team was made up of men of long experience in debate. Douglas G. McPhee, the captain of the team, is to be Redlands’ representative at a national oratorical contest in the east within a short time. The other two members of the Redlands team were Fred B. Ford and George Brown, both experienced debaters.
U. S. C. upheld the affirmative side of the question, “Resolved that the open shop agreement between employers and employees without collective wage contracts should prevail in American industry.” Redlands debated on the negative side. The negative team confined its entire argument to a consideration of a phase which . prohibited wage contracts, while the affirmative side devoted itself to a consideration of the merits of the open shop. The conflict between the arguments was not very direct.
The members of U. S. C.’s team were Julian Hallman, Warren Miller and William Barber.
