, C. DEBATE TEAM TO MEET CALTECH
apanese Immigration Law Will Be Discussed in Touchstone Thursday Night
The second round of the Southern 'onference debates will take place Thursday evening, February 2G, at 8 ’clock when the U. S. C. team up aolds the affirmative of the question— ‘Resolved: That the Immigration Law f 1924 Should be so Amended as to .dmit the Japanese Upon the Same sis as the Europeans”—against Cal. nech., in the Touchstone auditorium f the Old College building. Simultaneously the remainder of the Trojan earn will contest the reverse issue of he same question at Occidental.
Last year U. S. C. was successful in efeating the Cal. Tech. team but fell [to sad defeat before the verbosity of ’Occidental. The season, with the '.haracteristic optimism of unmitigated debaters, both teams are confident of overwhelming victory. Allen Nichols said yesterday that the Trojan teams are strong.
Inasmuch as U. S. C. was defeated by Southern Branch and succeeded only in wresting a tied score from Redlands so far this year, the men realize that a good showing is essential if they are to figure at all in the running. and will put up a fair battle in the forthcoming contest.
Teams in the Conference are IT. S. C., Whittier. Redlands, Southern Branch, Oxy., Pomona, and Cal. Tech. Redlands .although defeated by the Trojan team, won the Conference last year.

That it pays to ask for your cash register checks at the Associated Students Store lias been proved by the announcement that the third regular rebate is now being paid. Students who turned in their checks may receive their rebate by calling at the Cashier's office upstairs in the Journalism building. Ten per cent is being paid on all checks that were turned in ar the close of last semester. Dental College is in the lead as to amount of checks turned in. Greater interest w’as showrn this semester than at any time in the past.
Dean Fiske states that the rebate will be given regularly in the future, and for this reason the students should make it a point to ask for their cash register checks at the time they pay their money. There have been many inquiries as to wrhy it is necessaiy to ask for the checks. Mr. Fiske explains that this is the only possible way to give the students the benefit of reduced prices on their supplies, and at the same time to reserve the benefit for the person who makes the purchase.

End of February Given as Picture and Ordei Dead Line
‘All pictures for El Rodeo must be in by the end of this month if they are to be in the book at all.” says Bart Hutchins, editor of the year book “Many organizations have not yet had their pictures taken. These organizations should see Mr. Ward in the Photorium tomorrow if they are wise, since he cannot take more than a certain number of pictures in a day, and the time cannot be extended,” said the editor.-
Some of the pictures are to be taken as a group and others individually. Ed Hallman has charge of this phase of the work, and should be seen by those organizations which do not know how their pictures are to be taken. The list of campus organizations not yet having had their pictures taken follows: Scholarship Society, Federal Students Association, Commerce Club, Associated Women Students, Y. W. C. A., Y. M. C.

ENGINEERS TO MEET
All men registered in engineering will meet today at 12:lfi in the Barn. A. B. Collins, A A. E prexy will preside at the meeting. This meeting is of special importance. Plans for the annual Hike and picnic will be discussed, and several important committees will be appointed
In order to make a first hand study, of marine life, members of the Zoology classes, on Wednesday and Thursday of this wreek made trips to White’s Point, about ten miles from San Pedro on the Palos Verdes coast Miss McCulloch and Paul Greely had charge of the expedition.
This time was chosen for the trips on account of the low tides which are prevalent this week. Each student was expected to make a representative collection of the specimens found.
Mr. Greely said that the faculty of the department think that the students in the Zoology classes should make more use of the opportunity for first hand study of sea life which is offered them by living so close to the ocean. “This study is very valuable," he said, “the animals in their native environment often have a different appearance from the dead specimens studied in class, and are more interesting to the student.”
It is the plan of those in charge to build a marine station at Long Beach. This will enable a fuller study of sea life to be made and will save a great deal of time, as it will not be necessary to wait for the period of low tides which occurs only once a month.

ENGINEERS TO SEE LECTURE-PICTURE
Robert Irvine, President of A. S. C. E. Secures Motion-Picture Lectures
Realizing the importance of keeping the practical side of Engineering before the student, Robert (Red) Irvine, President of the A. S. C. E. has secured two interesting motion picture lectures on recent Engineering projects for the nights of March 3rd and 9th.
At 7:30 March 3rd at the ”Y” hut the first of these lectures will be given. It is on the Florence Lake Tunnel Project of the Southern California Edison Company. The tunnel when completed will cost $17,000,000, and 10,-workers consumed, while working on the tunnel, 4,175,000 eggs. They lost count of the ham.
This lecture is illustrated with moving pictures, showing all the phases of the construction work.
The next lecture is also held at 7:30 in the “Y” Hut on March 9th; it is entitled, “The Romance of Electricity” by Walter Gardner Blossom, Field Superintendent of Education. It consists of a preparatory talk describing the beginnings of the electrical industry, the early development of hydroelectric operations, and the faith and initiative necessary to bring the Southern California Edison Company’s great enterprise up to the point which has now been reached. A sketch is made of the Big Creek Project, involving construction work entailing a total expenditure of $375,000,000, or $15,000,000 more than the cost of the Panama Canal.
It is followed by two reels of wonderfully interesting motion pictures showing scenes of the high Sierra seventy-five miles northeast of Fresno and what the Company is doing in subduing nature’s forces, in harnessing the melting snows, and turning their mighty stregth into power to operate its gigantic power houses which, in turn, supply agriculture, industry and the homes in Central and Southern California.
Walter J. Simpson, vice-president of the A. S. C. E. says, “Both lectures are exceptional, and no engineering student can afford to miss either lecture.” And he added, “All other students are invited.”
28, SET FOR STANFORD'S.!!. MEET
Southern California Students Welcome Resumption of Relations With Big Three
With the resumption of Big Three
| relationship, students ^it the University of Southern California welcomed yesterday news to the effect that intercollegiate competition will be held with Staniord in a dual track meet to be held March 2Sth in Los Angeles, and in probability a tootball gam- also to be piayed in L«os Angeles on November 14.
Conflicting programs between California and Southern California will prevent the Bears and the Trojans meeting before 11*20.
Negotiations between the three larL est California institutions were held at the Clift Hotel between Harold J Stonier, executive secretary to President von KleinSmid of Southern California, Joel Hildebrand, acting for President Campbell of California, and Edwin Cottrell, acting for President Wilbur of Stanford.
STATEMENT ISSUED The statement Issued io the press from this meeting is as follows
At a conference held in San Francisco today between representatives of California, Staniord, and the University ot Southern Californfa, it was agreed after a discussion of the athletic policies and methods of control at the three institutions to resume athletic relationship as soon as schedules in the various sports could be arranged.
"The representatives of the three institutions teel that the success of real, amicable spoil reiationsmp can be furthered ajjd maintained only by definite understanding between the responsible university authorities.
“The attitude of friction and antagonism fostered by statements which have appeared in the press from certain elements of the public .the alumni and self-appointed representatives of the institution is particularly deplored. Incorrect reports in the public press concerning relations between the University of California and the University of Southern California were condemned by the representatives at the conference. The so-called Martin case was of interest to both California and Southern California, and the termination in January b} dropping the student mentioned. help-ed pave the way fo; a resumption of friendly relations
STUDENTS REPRESENTED ‘ Student control at California corresponds to the general athletic committee in Southern California and the Board of Athletic Control at Stanford, wherein students have representation. Control of scholastic requirements and enforcement, of eligibility rules are in the hands of faculty representatives at all three institutions, public state ments to the contrary notwithstand ing. It is confidently expected tha. this resumption of relations, if kef. within the bounds of strict university control, will foster a true spirit of rivalry that will protect inter collegiate athletics from the professional stigma.
“It is possible at this date to arrange a track meet between the University of Southern California and Stanford this spring with a possibility of a varsity football game in the fall. The California and Southern California schedules for the remainder of this year are so arranged that the only possibility of a football game before 1926 will be between the freshmen teams of the two universities. Games in the other sports will be arranged between the three institutions for the next college year.
