Because the boys seem to like the “Bull” and the big steaks, it is probable that the annual football banquet, at which the pilot for the 1922 squad will be selected, will be held at Ye Bull Pen Inn, next Thursday, at six and one-half p. m., according to whispers from the Graduate-Manager’s office. The Los Angeles Athletic club is the other place under consideration.

Philharmonic Orchestra Will Appear for the Second Time on U. S. C. Campus
FINE PROGRAM ARRANGED
Orchestra Will Appear in Its Entirety, Concert Will Begin at Three Fifteen
FIVE MEN ARE IN FINALS
McGinnis, Maxwell, Davis, Barker and Troutman will Represent University
Appearing in the fifth of the Great “13” events series, the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra will give the second of the three concerts to be given at U. S. C. on next Thursday afternoon at 3:15. According to the Music Department, the concert is to be the best program given to a University audience, one of the numbers being Symphony No. 5 in E minor, Op. 95, “From the New World.”
Music leaders in the University are anxious to have a good showing at the concert. It is seldom that the public is enabled to hear the great orchestra at such a reasonable price as given to the students and friends of U. S. C. The general admission price has been lowered to fifty cents and the management of the “13” series expect to see a larger crowd out than the one which heard the orchestra in the first concert.
ENTIRE ORCHESTRA WILL PLAY
Mr. Perry of the College of Music says that the nature of the program to be presented at the University is of a high class nature, very different from the usual popular concert given by the orchestra at scholastic entertainments. The quality of the performance and the fact that the entire orchestra will play shows the good opinion which the orchestra management has of the appreciation of music at U. S. C. Mr. Perry urges the student body to support the University, make the “13” series a financial success, and uphold the honor and prestige of the Cardinal and Gold by attending, not only the concert Thursday, but the remainder of the events to be given in the future.
The concert will begin at 3:15 in the afternoon, allowing students having classes ending at 3:05 to arrive on time, and the general admission for those not holding the “13” season books is fifty cents.
The program is as follows:
Dvorak—Symphony No. 5 in E minor, Op. 95, “From the New World” I. Adagio-Allegro molto.
II. Largo.
English Horn Solo, O. W. Hoffman.
Glazounow..........Dance of Salome
After the drama by Oscar Wilde. MacDowell—Dirge from ‘Indian Suite,” Op. 48.

EL RODEO STAFF MEETING
Members of the El Rodeo staff are requested to remain seated after chapel today for the first staff meeting. At this time the staff will be given specific instructions in order that work on the annual may begin immediately.

“Prexy, we’re ouija wherever you go” is the title of the article taken from the Arizona Wildcat, which is herewith published in its entirety:
The Editor asks us to write a feature story about Prex, but we hadn’t the heart, so we got out the family Ouija board and communicated with the shades of a few of our fellow scribes. All of them were glad to oblige except Milton, and he said the subject was beyond him—Milton and I have many points in common, I think. We asked them for poems about Prexy’s leaving, but I guess Bobby Burns got his signals mixed—anyway, wre may as well print them all.
CHAUCER
When that October with his sunshine liote
Hath football brot without a bit of dote,
Than doth our Prexy knot his noble brow
\.nd say, “Alas; ’tis I must leave ye now!”
BEN JOHNSON
Write to him only from afar And let him write to you;
But tempt him not with words for fair To leave the red and blue.
Wildcat that’s hauled from out his den May seem to make no row,
But, mark ye well what now I say, Wildcats will always meow!

Something resembling a basketball schedule has been drawn up by Grad-uate-Manager Gwynn Wilson, but the dates that are given are but tentative, and subject to changes, which will without doubt be made, according to “G-M” Gwynn. Due to the basketball schedule of the Pacific Coast Conference having been drawn up before U. S. C.’s admittance, arrangements for games have been difficult to make, but it is probable that contests will be played with California and Stanford, in the north, and return games played in the Trojan Basketball Temple, which will be completed by that time. Oxy, La Verne, Pomona and Whittier are some of the tea’ms which will be met by the Trojan qunitet.
LAST YEAR’S MEN START
The five men who will probably start the first game are all regulars from last year’s outfit. Grant Kuhns, George Boeck, Fred Hindrichs, Fred Axe and Capt. Charley Graham will start at the forwards, center and guards, respectively. From the looks of the remaining material, it looks as if changes will be made during each game, as Gordon Campbell, Kenny White, Leo Calland, Albert Butterfield, and many, many others equally proficient in guarding, passing, shooting and other necessary accomplishments, will not remain on the side linse. One disappointment is the ineligibility of Tony Wayne, one of the crack L. A. A. C. forwards who entered Trojan ranks or came from the freshman material of the past year. He will be in school next year, and will undoubtedly occupy one of the forward berths.
The schedule, incomplete, we warn you. and only tentative at best, besides having dates which are unstable, is as follows:
Feb. 10 (or 14)—Stanford at Los Angeles.
Feb. 17—California at Berkeley.
Feb. 18—Stanford at Palo Alto.
Feb. 22—Caltek at U. S. C.
Feb. 28—Oxy at Occidental.
March 3—California at U. S. C.
Pomona at U. S. C.
Whittier at Whittier.
Pomona at Pomona.
Whittier at U. S. C.
A trip will be made to Arizona around February 10, two games being played there, and two return matches booked for the Trojan Temple.
An invitation has been received from the Y. M. C. A. of San Diego, requesting an exchange of dates. La Verne College will be played two contests, as will the L. A. A. C. five, but dates are pending.
The above mess shows what “G-M” Gwynn Wilson is up against, to perfect and turn out a neat schedule for the season. None of the dates are sure things, but they will be when the squad takes the floor for the first game.
First it was the heathen Chinese, next came the suffering students of Czecho-Slovakia, and then the unfortunate Armenians. Now it is the starving poets of U. S. C. that call upon the student body in general for aid. In a final desperate effort, the poets who belong to the local chapter of the Quill Club recently pooled together the pennies earned from the sale of their manuscripts in order to purchase sugar which the feminine members of the organization have converted into candy to be sold today just before chapel. The poets are working upon the theory that more can be earned by selling a pound of candy than a yard of poetry.
At a recent meeting of Quill, the master brains of the club concentrated upon the problem of raising a certain amount of cold and harsh but necessary cash. Someone suggested selling hot dogs. The idea seemed practical, but hot dogs! Ugh! Such a matter . . of fact conception would never do for Universities.” the sensitive composers of deliate verse. Then came the happy thought | of a candy sale. The poets agreed on candy, with the reservation that only divinity taffy, lovers’ delight, chocolate kisses and other romantically named sweets should be used in the sale.
This concession had to be made in

New University Preacher Is Among Nation s Greatest Ministers
Dr. Henry Crane of Boston will greet the students of U. S. C. in Chapel this morning for the first of a series of lectures to be given here. Dr. Flewelling, chairman of the chapel committee, said, “U. S. C. is very fortunate to secure the services of Dr. Crane. He is a busy man, and he is in great demand at all the Middle Western
Dr. Crane is scheduled to take every assembly period until examination week. He will also talk to the students at 12:00 o’clock on

NEW MAGAZINE
“The Associated Engineer” is a monthly publication recently established by the engineering students of U. S. C. The first eidtion appeared in December, and was sold for ten cents the copy. E. Earl Glass was chosen editor, and Norman McKay, formerly of the Trojan, is the business manager.
The first edition was practically self-supporting, and engineering students are looking for a larger and more complete magazine to be published from now on. They expressed satisfaction with the first number, which comprised ten pages.
News articles took various forms, from signed stories to social and birth notices. The leading article was a report of a talk given at a downtown cafe. In this story, J. Hunter Clark discussed the problems of transportation and other engineering activities confronting Los Angeles.
strictly poetical things.
CANDY FOR CHAPEL
The Trojan versifists also decided that the specific time for the sale should be today just before chapel. From the student’s point of view, the sale of the candy at this hour will be decidedly advantageous. It will make chapel more bearable for three reasons.
First, the candy will help to keep away the hungry feeling which overtakes so many Trojans in chapel. Every time that the speaker makes a

Exams. Are To Be Written On Foolscape
“Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget, lest we forget.”
If this means anything to the motley rabble it has served its purpose. When Kipling penned those heartfelt rhymes he said a mouthful. Those lines are the only remembrances of his college days that he had; and it is whispered that they were written during a tough examination in econ, when the prof made all the men take their shirt cuffs off at the door.
In a few short weeks the failing beast will again visit our campus and take a few more students from the ranks of those who are trying to follow the teachings of George Washington. Just before the exam week all those who have something on their minds get it off, so that they may enter the gaseous chamber with their heads clear and empty.
During the exam week chapel is overcrowded with those who wish to do a little praying for their own good. The profs attend chapel this week for another purpose; that is to look over the crowd and see if any of their failing students are sweating hard enough to earn their flunk mark.
Exams are generally written either on foolscap or scrap paper; each sheet has its individual purpose. For instance, if a student enters his class room with sufficient amount of knowledge to wipe the grin off his face, he generally chooses scrap paper; but if he enters with a wide grin and keeps it, he always chooses foolscap.
Not only are the students affected by the exams, but the profs come in for their different changes in temperament. But these changes are for the best, while the student’s change is from bad to worse. The reason for this is quite evident. For the student it means nothing to win and everything to lose; while the prof always has an excuse to stay out for the night. It also gives the professors a chance to pay their respects to their pupils.
Another thing that comes during the (Continued on Page 4)
to appear before many organizations of social importance between now and the first of February.
Dr. Crane’s lectures are purported to be along the same practical lint>s through which Dr. J. Stitt Wilson entertained and instructed the students of U. S. C. last week.
Mr. Crane is a nephew of the the famous Dr. Frank Crane, editor and writer of syndicated articles, which appear in nearly every newspaper in the country. It has been stated that more people read Dr. Crane’s articles than those of any other present-day writer.
Other college publications regard Dr. Henry Crane as duplicating his uncle’s achievements in the ministry.
From what can be gathered in various newspaper reports, Dr. Crane preaches the Gospel in the light of modern ideas, of service to mankind, discarding the idea that brute force dominates the world.
Supper For Dr. Crane To-night
Believing that in order to insure the success of Dr. Crane’s campaign here it is necessary to have the cooperation of every organization and student activity on the ctmpus, the President of the University, Dr. von KleinSmid, has sent invitations to the leaders of all organizations to attend a “lap-supper” in the University Parlors this evening at 5:30. The guests will number approximately seventy-five. At this meeting an opportunity will be given to meet Dr. Crane and to hear his plans for his stay at U. S. C.
“The fundamental purpose of this informal supper,” stated Dr. Hedley, “is to give Dr. Crane the opportunity of meeting and outlining his plans to the leaders of the various groups on the campus, and to indicate to them how they might best help to make this campaign a success.”
Dr. Crane, following this meeting, will address the members of the Y. W. C. A. in their rooms in the Old College building. This meeting has been called for 8:00 o’clock. All women students of the University are cordially invited to attend.
