CAUGHT AFTER CHAPEL
Those Who Escaped Will Be Penalized With Great Severity
If
Trojan Co-eds Must Have Cash
Young man. if you’re in the market for a wife, and j-our tendencies lean to a college or university girl, the figure $62.50 a week will interest you, because that sum represents the LOWEST salary figure that the girls of this university can consided co-joinei with a successful proposal.—L. A. Examiner, I>ecember *, 1921.
Since the girls of this school have roved their worth in gold by refusing marry unless the highest bidder has 1 land and a fishing smack the next estion is, where in the halls of S. will there be found any men who e eligible by the new Southern Con-ence ruling to buy the golden bride? e girls have thrown up their old .al of a Greek hashslinger mounted a pedestal of popular approval and ve come down to the economics of Question which they learned in ir freshmen year.

Amazon Axes have dropped with a I sickening thud on the necks of disobedient freshmen women. Upon the ! close of yesterday’s rally the doors leading from the freshmen gallery were closed and the only key that turned the lock to let the freshmen women out, were hands of green on left arms. When all the culprits had been horded together they were conducted to the scene of punishment, the front walk, where, with toothbrushes | in hand, they each selected a square in i the pavement and went to it.
Unfortunately there are some freshmen girls at U. S. C. who not only neglected, purposely or otherwise, to wear i their insignia of honor but are so j craven hearted as to fail to take their medicine, as would the good sports the university prides herself on having. One woman, prominent in the class of | ’25 was filled with such fear that she dashed madly down the street at a fifty-mile pace. Others behaved them-j selves in such an incorrigible manner | that it was decided to waive their pun-! ishment for measures infinitely more embarrassing and unendurable. Certain girls, who falsely claimed to be specials, are under suspicion and will be dealt With in a summarily fashion if it is found that they lied about their i classification.

A host of people, both in Southern California and in the north, have the idea that Henderson’s squad of fighting Trojans is a roughneck team, determined to win at any cost. O. A. C. came down with that idea, and the men were agreeably surprised at the game the Trojans put up. The following, taken from the Los Angeles Times, gives the Aggie opinion:
“The Oregon Aggie-U. S. C., game at Pasadena yesterday was singularly free of penalties. The Aggies were penalized just once, and U. S. C. didn’t draw a single setback. The game was clean and fast, starting at 2:45 and ending at 4:30 sharp. In fact it was so clean that the northern officials—Cave, Kearns and Heubel—were very much surprised. They told Harry Minor, umpire, after the game that the northern press had led them to believe the Trojans were roughnecks. They said they found the U. S. C. boys as clean a bunch as ever played on a football field.

To those who suffered the penalty yesterday it is stated that this was merely punishment for the first offence. A second infraction will mean greater ignominy. They are not exempted frcm the rules already laid down, but on the contrary, are under strict surveillance. To every freshmen woman it is urged that she go home, find her freshmen bible and read the traditions of the old school, that she add thereunto the detail concerning the wearing of the bands, and then that she guard her observance thereof with utmost care.

POWERS HELD OP BV NEGROS; HEAVY LOSS
Students of the College of Commerce will probably never know how they fared in their last examination. Because—
As Professor Ralph Power was on his way home early Monday evening, two negro bandits held up at 37th and Raymond Streets and took examination papers he was taking home to mark, a watch valued at $130 and a purse containing $25.
The December issue of the Journal of Applied Sociology is being distrib uted this week. The publication contains several additional pages and an entirely new feature—editorial notes.
The most important article is by Dr. George Elliott Howard, professor of sociology and political science at the University of Nebraska. The article by Dr. Howard on the subject of marriage and divorce represents a field of sociological study and research in which Dr. Howard is the most eminent authority in the world today. He was the first American writer to point out that family instability is due primarily to bad marriage and not to poor divorce laws. He offers several remedies for divorce and bad marriage and urges that public sentiment be better informed; that the young be socially educated: and that we institute a rational system of education, broad enough to embrace the whole complex problem of sex, marriage and family.
MOTION PICTURE CHILD
The second article in the Journal is “The Employment of Children in the Motion Picture Industry,” by Benjamin Weiss, a graduate student of the University. Mr. Weiss analyzes the detriments to the child who is employed in motion pictures. There is need for social adjustment in this industry. The problem is one of
Whether Washington State or our own sweet Trojan eleven meets the Colonels from Kaintuck on Christmas in the San Diego bowl is a litle bit of puzzle that probably won’t be solved until a short time after five o’clock tomorrow afternoon. At any rate, the opponents of Centre College will be either of these two teams, if the invitation by the San Diego officials is accepted. WTill S. C. meet the Praying Colonels? We wonder.
The first thing to be accomplished is the defeat of the Washington outfit. And that is the last thing, according to the atmosphere and spirit around the long green training shack of the Trojans. As far as the team is concerned, the season is over and training is off when the last whistle blows at Pasadena tomorrow.
But our Trojan eleven is out to win that little affair tomorrow, for, although the bid may be turned down, we do not want it said that we didn’t have the right to play. Column after column of the dailies in Los Angeles is devoted to the W. S. C. outfit, exploiting the earnestness with which the northerners take the coming game. They have nothing on the little boys under “Gloomy Gus.” If determination counts for anything, it should score a hundred points for the Cardinal and Gold. Many things hang on the outcome of the game, besides the fact that the Trojans want to smile at the banquet Saturday night.
If the Northerns receive an impressive reception in the tilt tomorrow it will help establish the growing respect for Coach Henderson’s product. From Portland comes a report that alt four northern teams, namely, Washington U., Washington State, Oregon U., and the Oregon Aggies, are in favor of ad-mittiing U. S. C. into the Pacific Coast Conference. California is not opposed to the idea, and it is supposed that Stanford will favor the Trojan entry this year when the annual conference meeting takes place in Portland on December 10. To come through two seasons with but one defeat, and that at the hands of the Golden Bear, would boast Trojan stock mightily.
Washington State will find a scrappy Trojan outfit tomorrow, and we expect but ten points will separate the two teams at the close of the game.
STRONG NORTHERNERS TO BATTLE U.S.C.
By MAXWELL STILES
A MERE INTRODUCTION: U. S. C. meets Washington State College in the final game of the 1921 football season, at Tournament Park, Pasadena, tomorrow afternoon. The game will start at 2:45, daylight wasting time.
THE USUAL DEVELOPMENT: Gloomy Gus Henderson and Indian Gus Welch, rival coaches, freely admit that Washington State will win by two or three touchdowns.
THE NATURAL CONCLUSION: U. S. C. will win by two touchdowns.
*****
There, folks, is a can of condensed gridiron syrup frcm certified bulls. Gloomy Gus can sling the horned critted better than the niftiest toreador in all Spain./ Indian Gus talks w'ith that peculiar determination that reminds us of tossing a coin. Heads, Indian Gus glares at you with an “I told you so ' air. Tails and there you have that confounded bull again.
Gloomy Gus raves on until we have a hazy impression of a well-laundered, pressed-out tamale. His every utterance is guarded as in sheathes; the most noticeable thing about it is the mush about this and that and the rest of the cripples; but deep down among the olives one can usually detect a hint of possible, if not probable, victory.
Give Indian Gus half a chance to talk and he will say, “We expect to
win, BUT-”
That is why you have to toss a coin. So it is unanimous that U. S. C.
hasn’t got a chance, BUT-
And there you are.
25,000 EXPECTED It is expected that more than 25,000 persons will witness the struggle, which will decide second place on the Coast this year.
Second place on the Coast is no prize to sneeze at. Christmas is coming, and we might as well get into the habit of accepting an Ingersol when all the gold Walthams are sold out.
California has the gold Waltham of football honors this year, and if we can hook the Ingersol tomorrow it will be much better than being classed with the “also ran’s.”
The Washington State Cougars arrived in town last Tuesday morning. After parking themselves at the Maryland Hotel in Pasadena, they took a squint at the scenery, indulged in a breath of Tournament of Roses air and then got down to business.
They have been working hard all this week. They are in perfect condition.
They are heavy and muscular. Their bones are well set and they appear to be much older than the ordinary train of college athletes.
In plain words, they are the toughest hombres seen around here for many moons. They are fine fellows and clean sportsmen. They are examples of the great American manhood of
TIGER DESTROYED AT OCCIDENTAL’S REQUEST
McGinnis and Bums From “Oxy” Have Word Battle and Finally Decide on Extermination
To foster and rejuvenate good feeling and comradeship between Occidental College and U. S. C., Merle McGinnis, A. S. B. president; Leo Calland, Trojan Knight leader, and Carl Farman, Trojan editor, met a similar delegation from Occidental at Exposition Park, Thursday afternoon, at three o’clock, and destroyed the famous Tiger which the Trojans took from their neighbors’ custody three years ago.
The stripped mascot has been the subject of several fistic encounters and brawls between men of the two colleges. Shortly after the football game with Oxy this year, the U. S. C. student body voted to return the treasured mascot, but in correspondence with the Occidental president, Merle McGinnis learned that this action was not oloked upon with favor by the other institution, and the above means was agreed to as being the most effective method of obliterating the existant animosities.
LAST HOURS OF TIGER
Now that the tiger is destroyed, representatives from both colleges feel free to tell weirdd and exciting episodes on their behalf to obtain or to retain the possession of the famous mascot.
In a letter to William Burns, Oxy president, Merle McGinnis said: “The students of the University of Southern California feel that the Tiger episodes have served their purpose, but that the time has come when the Tiger’s return to its owners would be highly conducive to the fostering and promotion of better inter-collegiate spirit.
“I wish to express my admiration for the fighting spirit and constant caution of Occidental in seeking the Tiger’s recovery. It has been no easy task to keep the Tiger safe, but we
