forward to the minor political skirmishes due at this time of year; class elections are next in order, and the nominations for class officers will be held on the 31st of this month, according to the president of the A. S. B.
Some classes, still under the magic political spell of the past week, have gone so far as to make nominations already, but these '~jreat nominations are void. However, the nominees will have opportunity to have their names placed on the ballot May 31, the official date at which time nominations are made. Elections will be held one week later.
(’lass activities have sufferedf -------- ---------- —
somewhat of a relapse, due to the nearness of lhe end of the semester, preparations for finals, theme papers, and the general election of student body officers.
FRESHMEN SLOW
The freshmen, slow in entering into the spirit of V. S. 0., have been somewhat inactive in as far as class activities go, but have contributed a number of good athletes of track and gridiron possibilities, as well as turning out a crack baseball team. Officers of the freshman class complain of the manner in which the frosh turn out to class meetings and the lack of co-operative spirit among members of their class.
The sophomore class reports nothing of special significance. Their meetings are full of snap, and they say, “Watch us step next year.”
JUNIORS, SENIORS BUSY
Junior and senior classes are as busy as a hen with one chicken. The annual production of the junior class has kept^hem out of mischief.
“El Rodeo’’ will be out on schedule time, and their play, “Polly with a Past,” they say. will “knock ’em cold.”
The class of '23. recovering from the strain of the Road Show', now turn their attention to the serious task of graduating. The seniors, over-zealous in their efforts to get things done on time, made their class nominations last week, and now face the extra task of having to make them all over again on May 31, the official nomination date.
Time On Scenario Competition
YOUTH IS HOPE
Producer Says He Much Faith in Students
Puts
Extension of time from May 15 to June 30 has been granted by Mr. Carl Laemmle, of the Universal Pictures Corporation, for the submittance of scenarios in the $1000 scholarship contest. Dr. Gaw, head of the English department, is in charge of the contest at U. S. C., and all scenarios are to te turned in to his office.
$1000 SCHOLARSHIP Mr Laemmle, as president of the Universal Pictures Corporation, has offered this $1000 scholarship to further the “Better Pictures” policy inaugurated by Mr Will Hayes. Feeling that while a great deal of improvement can come within the industry' itself, much can be gained from a contest such as this in obtaining fresh ideas and new thoughts.
IMPROVEMENT SLOW "The real process of improvement is not a matter of months, but of

Senior Road Show Makes
Biggest Vaudeville Hit
BY AL TACHET The Senor Road Show of 1923, presented in Bovard Auditorium last Thursday night, surpassed all previous U. S. C. vaudeville entertainments of the last four years. The very noticeable improvement QTUDPN^T was undoubtedly due to the efforts of Edgar Hansen, director of the v A	*- A rHYl^O
entire production, and of Elmer Klamroth, manager.
The outstanding performers on the bill were Edgar Hansen, as the super?vamp; James Mussatti, as the political orator; and Henry Ruwe, as Bill Jones from “ Lightening. ” Hansen and Mussatti excelled in artistic burlesque. Ruwe achieved a genuine artistic triumph in his impersonation of the late Frank Bacon.

The act started out rather weakly, but it scored a hit at the end when McCann and Hansen joined in a song and dance. Ruth Seaver created a favorable impression, but the material given her was not very satisfactory.
WILLIE, MUSTY REVEALED
Willie Live and Musty Supher, who were identified respectively as Cecil Carle and Norman McKay, were second on the program. Some of their jokes had been heard before; nevertheless, their act “went over big.’’ Willie Live proved an excellent vaudevillian.
Sarah Taft Somers followed in “Pantomimic Impressions.” The act was well staged and beautifully costumed. The “Wooden Soldier" number was especially novel.

At Hermosa lunches will be served and a fewr beach stunts staged. Besides the dancing and bathing, some interclass competitions may be arranged, principally to give the sophomores a chance to get revenge for the defeat suffered at Brent’s Crags earlier in the year.
The affair has been arranged under the guidance and inspiration of Doctors Endelman and La Touche. Transportation has been arranged for by Dr. Bronson.
President
COMMERCE CLUB TO ELECT AGAIN
Because of the tie in the number of votes cast for each candidate for the office of treasurer of the Commerce Club, a special election will be held on Thursday. Last Thursday, Harold Dougher and Elmer Marshrey each received 116 votes.
Several corrections of the “Trojan’s” statement about the result of the Commerce election are necessary. Worth Coleman was elected to the vice-presidency of the General Business Division, not the General Buyer's Division. Walter Sykes is the vicepresident-elect of the Banking Division, not the Bookkeeping Division.
STUDENT FELLOWSHIP
The Student Fellowship will not hold its regular meetings Wednesday, May 16, nor Wednesday, May 23, because of a special Sunday trip which will be taken some time In the very near future.
Nominations of officers for the A. A. E. for next year were made at the Engi* neers’ banquet held in the Cafeteria Wednesday night.
For president. K. C. Mobarry, C. J. Robinson and Gus Tapley were nominated. Al have been active in engineering as well as University circles. Mobarry has been president of the A. I. E. S the past year, is a member of the U S. C. Press Club, and has written all the engineering news that has appeared in the “Trojan” during the past year. C. J. Robinson has been a “live engineer” for three years, participating in many activities. Much inside office work at the barn has been done by Robby. Gus Tapley needs no introduction to the Knights of the Transit, as he has been reliable on every committee he has handled and has always promoted the best interests of the A. A. E.
For vice-president, James Hess is running against Carlton Black, while George Shindler and Gerald Woods are in the race for secretary. For treasurer, Donald Watson, K. B. Jones and “Our Hero’’ Phil Johnson are up for office.
“Election will be held at the barn on Thursday. May 31. All engineers are eligible to vote if they have paid their dues in full,” 3tates Bob Rowley, present A. A. E. prexy. Votes will be counted in the evening at the election banquet.
