Seniors Sign Up For Big Banquet
POLITICAL PETITIONS appeared yQ] on the campus yesterday. With them i ————■ came more definite information as to who are seeking offices in the student body government for next year.
Friends went round with rolls of paper under their arms, soliciting unsuspecting students for names to add to their already large list on the petitions.
By Monday those petitions will be flow-ing into the Graduate Manager’s office, stuffed with names, and burdened with well wishes.

SERVICE CAMPAIGN closed successfully last night. The amount which the managers went after was not fully attained, but the circum* stances under which the c&mpaign was launched rather limited the amount which the students could give.
Nearly all the subscriptions were in small allotments of form one dollar to a dollar and a half. That showed the general tendency of the student body, and proved that the students will back worthy propositions to which they have dedicated themselves.

Tough Battl es WILL GO SOUTH SOON
ALL UNIVERSITY FORMAL will be held in the Hotel Alexandria tomorrow evening.. This will be the last social function of the year appertaining to the whole student body, and ought to be well supported by all those eligible to go.
From professional colleges comes the word that they will give their fullest support to the formal. This is •well, because it offers them and the students on the campus an opportunity of getting acquainted in a social way that they do not often enjoy.
JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET will be held on May 4, Friday.
Juniors are anxious to have all the seniors sign up who intend to go to the banquet, in order that they will know how many plates to provide for. The senior vice-president has designated several people, the names of whom appear elsewhere, who will be responsible to her for the names of couple9 turned in to them. All seniors are, therefore, urged to immediately get in touch with one of those ten and see that they are listed in the proper category.
SKULL AND DAGGER BANQUET
will be held May 3. Thursday, in Pasadena.
AH alumni are urged to immediately get in touch with Al Wesson and give him their names if they intend to attend the banquet. Plate charges are two dollars. Here again, it is necessary to know the number of couples intending to go to the banquet beforehand.
Other social activities are on the university calendar, but those are the three most important coming off within the next week.

Henderson Will Go To San Diego With the Youngsters for Only Trip
Freshman baseball is still going strong. Today the Babes meet Loyola for a fast game on the opponent's lot. It is probable that all of the pitchers will work in order to get a line on > their stuff.
Next Monday the youngsters are scheduled to meet the varsity. They have played two games so far this season with the first nine, and have given them some tough battles, so deserve another chance at the big hoys.
The elimax#of the frosh season lies in the game to be played at San Diego on May 5th. The fracas will occur on the Southerners' diamond, and it will be the first trip the Babes have made. Every man will have to accompany the squad if he is to get the coveted numeral for the season’s work. Henderson will go along and the team will endeavor to impress San Diego with the S. C. spirit and ability.

RESOLVED; That The Junior-Senior Banquet Will Be a Success.
By STANLEY WHEELER Financial Manager of the Banquet Who may come to the Junior-Senior Banquet and under what circumstances? Here are the facts:
The Class of ’24 most cordially invites all Seniors to attend.
All Juniors are expected to come, and in addition, they are expected to act as hosts. Being hosts implies that they will pay the bills.
The Banquet will cost $2 per plate, with a seven-course dinner. If each Junior pays $4 he will be paying for his own plate and for the plate of one Senior.
Since both Senior men and women will be present, both JUNIOR MEN AND WOMEN MUST PAY.
Senior men may take the ladies of either class, as may the Junior men. But the men of neither class are expected to pay the Junior ladies' assessment.
JUNIORS—If you are not yet convinced of the necessity of coming to the Banquet, read these points on the affirmative side of the question:
1.	It is a long established traditional event and mu6t not be permitted to die out.
2.	The Seniors deserve it, they gave a good one last year, and they are leaving us in two months.
3.	The dinner will be worth going out to the Hollywood Hotel to eat, and the entertainment after it will be of an appealing nature.
4.	And selfishly, Juniors, we want to show the present Sophomore Class how they are to do it next year.
Negative side of the question:
1.	OOOOOOooo
2.	oooOOOOOO DECISION—Three in favor of the
affirmative.

For the benefit of the Orthopaedic !

The tickets | are $1.25 each, $5.00 per table. There , will be fifteen instructors who will give group and individual instruction, i so those who have never played Mah Jongg need not hesitate in coining for that reason.
It is hoped that every women’s organization in the campus will reserve a table in the interests of the hospital.
Tickets may be secured from anv Tri Delta at LT. S. C.
CHORAL CLUB IN SACRED CONCERT
NO TRIPS PLANNED FOR NEWS SCRIBES
Journalism students will not take any more trips to neighboring towns for the purpose of editing the local papers, according to Professor Marc Goodnow. who has had charge of the excursions. The reason for the change of plans is that the effort necessary to gather the news and put out a paper in a strange town far overbalances the good that might be derived from the experience obtained.
These excusions have been made at various times for several years, but there has been considerable doubt for , some time as to their value, the pro-_____	fessor claims. Two papers, the Ana-

NEGATIVE SIDE
i Vic Colburn and Edward Siems, up-the ! holding the negative side, easily defeated the Fullerton team, composed of Dolly Gray and Shaw, speaking to maintain the affirmative side of the proposition. From the start to the finish the U. S. C. hopes were never once placed at stake. Early in the debate a victory for Colburn and Siems was anticipated. Fullerton was expected to put tip a strong fight, but they fell easily before the swords of the Trojans.
Trojan combatants completely outwitted the foes in both constructive and rebuttal arguments. Colburn and Siems possessed excellent form in delivery. In the constructive speeches they built up a case that was insur-1 mountable. The material that they presented showed Complete understanding of the question. Speaking in a conversational tone the Trojan verbal throwers were persuasive in the I presentation of their case. In the re-I buttal the Cardinal and Gold standard

bearers tore the arguments of the opponents into pieces and exposed the weakness of establishing the Cabinet-Parliamentary form of government in the United States.
ORCHESTRA’S FIRST APPEARANCE MAY 2
Final action will be taken by executive committee t>n the proposed amendments to the constitution today at 12:30 in the graduate manager’s office. Starting an unusual custom in ihe University, the amendments were read in chapel and the minutes of the executive meeting, called last week, were read in open forum and discussed by various members of the student-body.
Chief among the amendments are that a Trojan editor shall be appointed instead of chosen in popular elections as has been customary. According to this amendment, he will be appointed by the executive committee with and by the consent of the head of the Department of Journalism, the head of campus publications and the student body president.
Other recommendations are that the El Rodeo be changed from a junior publication to an*all-university annual.
Also the manager of the El Rodeo shall be appointed by the same machinery that functions in the case of the Trojan manager.
Politics has come under the stern 1 eye of the Executive Committee. Lim-^ itatlon has been made on the political | ond meeting, since it re-organization.

Climaxing the series of University theatricals for the entire college year, the ‘ Senior Road Show" promises to be one of the greatest treats for lovers of the stage that has even been presented at U. S. C. The best talent included in the senior enrollments of all the colleges will be brought together in a grand exhibition of musical and dramatic art; and all who know the ability cf the four-year people as entertainers are looking forward to an evening of supreme enjoyment on the night of May 10, when the seniors nut on their big show. "Demand for tickets to the ’ seniors’ offering is still running strong, according to word from the box office. The better seats on the lower floor are being snapped up rapidly for parties ranging from three to a dozen. All persons wishing to secure blocks of. seats for parties to the last big sho\y of the season are advised by those in charge of the ticket sale that they had better make it snappy or they will fail to get good seats.
SEATS SELL RAPIDLY
First come first served will be the rule in the balconies. These seats are also selling rapidly, and indications are that the front seats in the balconies will be in big demand when the house opens the evening of May 10.
“This season’s road show is to raise funds for the senior gift to the University. Just what the young men and women who are leaving the University this June leave behind as a testimony of their loyalty and appreciation depends on the support the student body cares to give one of the established campus traditions,” said Elmer Klamroth.
BEST EVER
“Of course, the seniors are naturally expected to support their own production, but we also depend on the cooperation of all the students to make the annual senior road show a success.”
Making their first public appearance. the University Orchestra will be at Bovard Auditorium on Wednesday evening, May 2.
This is the initial appearance of the orchestra this year and it presents a fine program on which the orchestra has spent a year of faithful work. Tha numbers presented are of high musical standard, and are skillfully directed by Mr. Arthur W. Perry, Business Manager of the College of Music. Mrs. Alberta Zens, assistant concert-master of the Woman’s Symphony Orchestra and violinist on the faculty of the College of Music, will play Fan* tasie Appassionata, by Vieuxtemps, with orchestra accompaniment.
