35,000 SEATS SOLD
Rally Committee Arranges Features—9.000 Bruins Are Coming'
Present indications are that there will be an early sell out of the sections especially reserved for the student tbody at the Bear-Trojan tussle November 10. The sale was launched last Tuesday morning. At the end of two days it has been going at full steam with a continual line of seat seekers at the office in the book store.
Those who have not purchased their tickets are advised that all talking and inquiring for information be accomplished before entering the line at the ticket office. It is necessary that all names be checked in order to hasten the work of those in charge. To these who have the Student Books, a fifty cent reduction will be give non all tickets purchased.
Three sections have been reserved for students and their relatives, a special rooters section for the men, another for the women and then there is to be a mixed section for parents and relatives of the students.
All Southern California and many outside points are showing a keen interest in this contest which is to be the most decisive battle of the year. A win or a lose will probably decide the coast championship.
Owing to the urgent demand for seats in these sections a limited sale has been found necessary. Each student is allowed one seat in the rooters section and two in the mixed section. While as yet there has been no assertion to the contrary, it is expected that all students will maintain their own seats in the rooters section and hold tickets in the mixed section for their relatives or friends only.

Ey RUThTcANARY
Roused to a high pitch of enthusiasm and interest in the approaching Artists' Co^Tse series, the students of U. S. C. have rallied nobly to the cause of the much-needed Women’s Hall. Perhaps it was the spirited leadership of Mr. Kirchoffer at Tuesday's rally assembly, perhaps it was the success of the big picnic on the lawn, perhaps it was, and is, the evident eagerness of the co-eds themselves for their new building, that made the rest of the school say an unhesitating “yes” when asked to buy Artists’ Coursa tickets. Most probably it was the combination of all three that wrought the desired result,
SEATS NEARLY GONE Since Tuesday, ticket-selling has been hot and heavy, according to a large corps of women students turned saleswomen, and reports from the box office are that nearly the whole first floor has been completely sold out'. Students ’who signed up iH Chapel Tuesday may secure their season tickets today at the box office in the arcade, and they are urged to attend to this at once while there are a few good seats left.

Leaders of the drive seem confident of the support of loyal Trojans.
For the purpose of discussing the intensive work required of them in the next few days all workers met at dinner in the cafeteria Tuesday evening. There were over 100 campaigners present. Glen Grant, formerly University Y president, led the workers in some school songs and with the aid of Herman Natowitz, assistant yell leader, brought a good deal of pep to the crowd.
Ned Lewis, member of the Executive Committee, who spoke in the absence of Harry Silke, told of the interest the A. S. B. had in the campaign and assured the workers of its support.
A new attitude exists in the university about the Y according to Floyd Reeves, president of the Y. M. “Every loyal Trojan is aware that their duty to the organizations is increasing continually and that their (CONTINUED ON PAGE 2)

BY HAROLD BLACKMAN
Bang!
Everybody in the University heard the “big noise” of the starting gun yesterday morning when more than a hundred denizens o f clam shell trail got under way and started scurrying through the halls, bounding over the cam-p u s, and “ m u s s i n’ things up” in general. Even Floyd Reeves the hermit Y. M. C. A. President crabs of the campus realized that the tidal wave was coming and “pulled in their ears.” In other words The big Y. M. drive for $2,000 started yesterday. Today all forces expect to go over the top.
Under the leadership of President Floyd Reeves and Secretary Glen Turner the Y. M. C. A. has taken a new lease on life. Floyd made the following statement this morning: “This year we are going to make the Y’ bigger and better than ever before, but in order to do this we must have the support of every man on the campus. More men are taking sm interest than ever before in the history of the organization.
“We are going to put on, for the first time, a formal iniation, and every new man will be made to feel his responsibility. If any man on the campus has any doubts as to the virility of the Y Men,’ let him come to the ‘U-Y Council Dinner’ at 5.30 p. m. any Wednesday and see a loyal group of Trojans working for the best interests of the University.
“The Y. M. C. A. is the one independent, student controlled, all campus activity in w'hich all men are welcomed at all times irrespective of race, color, creed, or financial status. But because we have a worth while commodity to offer, and because every worth while organization must have financial support, we are putting on this campaign for funds.
“Every man on the campus is at liberty to make use of the conveniences of the Y Hut.’ A Social Membership costs absolutely nothing.”

DALLY FOR STANFORD, CAL GAMES TUESDAY
Yell and Song Practice Feature of Rally at Tuesday Assembly
1000 ROOTERS NEEDED
Artists’ Course Tickets are Sold By Amazons in Aisles During Session
Fermenting pep for the Stanford and California games, resolving to send messages to the team in Seattle, launching a campaign for the new women’s building, and following Hugo Kirchoffer through “Alma Mater” and U. S. C. battle songs, was the herculean feat accomplished in one short hour by the Trojans at rally Tuesday at 11 a. m.
Hank McCann carried the assembly ihrough short, snappy pep drill. According to the yell king, 1,000 rooters are needed and expected at Stanford stadium, where new Trojan bleacher stunts will be featured. On the Tuesday mo-ning after the Stanford battle .victory or not, at least half of the student body should meet the home-coming team, said McCann.
Harry Silke, student body president, lauded the spirit of the rooters in the rousing send off given the team Saturday night at their departure to meet Washington. He suggested the idea that each campus organization sending messages to the warriors camped at Seattle, which was unanimously received. The address of the Trojan team is the “New Washington Hotel,” Seattle.
Miss Ruth Seaver told of the urgent need of a new Women’s Hall that would house the Y. W. C. A., Home Economics department, dance and reception halls, and a real women’s gymnasium. The proceeds from the long talked of Artists Course are to form the nucleus for the building.
Mr. Hugo Kirchoffer, now a well known figure at U. S. C., made a stirring plea for student support of the Artists Course, and said it was impossible for U. S. C. to fall down on anything she started.
TICKET SALE
While the songs proceeded, Trojan Amazons canvassed the aisles selling Artist Course tickets with good le-sults. Both the old and new “Alma Mater” songs were practiced. The older song will be sung at the California game for the benefit of the thousands of alumni who will be there.

It is planned to make the dance a sort of home coming affair because of the fact that a large number of the U. S. C. and California alumni will be in Los Angeles for the game.
This is the first informal dance ever to be held at the Biltmore, and will be the first affair which U. S. C. has held at this hotel. It will be the second all-University affair of the year, the first being the Hallowe’en dance this month.
Prima Donna from Metro-politon Opera Co., First Of Artists’ Courst
ALDA’S CREED, ‘WORK’
Acclaimed by Press Among America’s Foremost Sopranos of Today
Madame Frances Alda, distinguished prima donna of the Metropolitan Opera Company, will appear Monday evening, October 22, in Bovard Auditorium, in the first number of the Artists’ Course presented by the University of Southern California Woman's Club.
Lionel Jutis, a distinguished violinist will appear in joint concert with Madame Alda.
Pitts Sanborn of the New York Globe says of Madame Alda, “that it is through her own intelligent persistence that she has advanced from imperfect beginnings to a secure position among the foremost sopranos before the American public today.”
It has been said that the creed of Madame Alda is. "work, work, and more work.” She herself says, “Work can hardly be classed as brilliant or popular, but it brings brilliant and popular results. No artist should forget that with a brave heart and a fixed purpose there are always liftier heights to be scaled.”
Frances Alda made her debut in opera at the Opera Comique in Paris. Later she made concert tours through Italy, South America, and Russia, coming to the Metropolitan in 1908, where “her windsome personality has won the hearts of the multitude, as her art versatility have given to the musical writers an inspiring and constantly-varying theme.”
A single statement from the press will tend to describe tbe genius and success of Alda, “Making her entrance most graciously with ineffable charm, Mme Alda demonstrated her talents in a program that had marvelous merits of voice, style and interpretation so fused that they evoked the most enthusiastic admiration. Mme. Alda's rich and powerful voice is in itself a pleasure to hear, but the pleasure is augumented by the soprano’s manifold virtues of technique, her grace of phrasing, clarity of diction, subtlety of tone inflection, and the skill and understanding of her mood delineation.”
The people of Los Angeles will have the opportunity of varifying this statement Monday, October 22, when the following program will be presented:
