GIRLS’DORMITORY HAS FIRST DANCE Affair To Be Formal; Eighty-five Bids Mailed Out To Campus Men. Irrepressible shieks of the Southern California campus who have made it a point to “trip the light fantastic” in every “salle de dance" in the city of Los Angeles and its environs, will at last get the opportunity for which many of them have waited hopefully ever since the opening of the present semester—the opportunity to dance in the Women’s Dorm. Their chance will come tomorrow' evening on the occasion of the first event on the social calendar of the Women’s Hall, a formal dance, scheduled to commence at 8:30 P. M. This affair, according to the plans of those in charge, is going to be very high hat and all that. The invites have been limited in number, just eighty-five invitations in all having been mailed to university men. A first-class bunch of syncopation-man-ufacturers have been secured in the persons of Ray Hatfield and his henchmen in the production of dance music. As patrons and patronesses for the evening’s affair, the social chairman of the Women’s Hall has secured President and Mrs. von KieinSmid, Dr. and Mrs. Marston, Dean and Mrs. Stabler, and Professor James Musatti. The hostesses in the receiving line will be Dean Mary Sinclair Crawford, Miss Rosemond Ball, House Hostess of the Hall; Miss Charlotte Montague, President of the Hall; and Miss Lalla R.

ANNOUNCE EL RODEO STAFF MONDAY SAYS EDITOR ED MURRAY According to Ed Murray, the complete staff who are to manage the affairs of the El Rodeo will be announced Monday. He further states that efforts are being made to take all pictures early this semester so that more time can be spent upon the engraving and printing. It is expected that all the necessary photographic w'ork will be taken care of in a short time ,thus allowing the staff to place all of their ability and time on the other phases of the publication. Burdette Ives, business manager of the book, also reports that the business end is likewise progressing with great speed. All photographic work has been turned over to the Densmoore Studio of Hollywood, ana Ives states that they have on hand at the present time over ten thousand cuts or negatives from which to choose. Many more pictures are to be taken and this number will be greatly increased by the time of publication. Plans have been made to equip and operate on the campus a complete branch of the Densmoore Studio whose exclusive work will be to prepare the pictures for El Rodeo. This is a new system instituted this year and it is believed that the plan of having a regular campus studio will greatly increase the quality and quantity of the photographic work. Announcements will be made before any pictures are taken and notices will be sent to those concerned in order that they may be prepared for the pictures.

Actual work on the campus by the Densmoore Studio is to be started Monday and it is expected that all photographic work of this kind will be finished by the end of November.

Two reasons for the pran are advanced by the Rally Committee who are sponsoring the attempt, are the teaching of the university songs to all students so that they will become familiar with them, ana student group singing in public will be perfected. The second reason is the increase of interest and school spirit throughout the entire student body. The leaders who have been appointed are responsible for tne starting of the singing as soon as enough members of the class arrive to make a fair showing. The singing continues till the ringing of the last bell at nine o’clock, or at the arrival of the in structor in case he is not already there.

C, Pavilion Saturday is the Sophomore day. ’Tis of the affair as the on that date that the austered wearers of the blue and buff shall frolic in the sanctuary of the basketball pavilion, flitting hither, thither, and yon to the delightful strains of “I Ain’t Nobody’s Papa,” or some equally sentimental selection. The always popular season of Hallowe’en will be officially opened at Southern California by this first dance of the Sophomore class, and committee chairmen promise a very impressive beginning to the customary annual reign of the black cats and other accessories. Henry Rohr, class president, speaks “Coming Out Party” of the Sophomore class, and urges every second-year student to attend. Hank also promises plenty of room for at least one thousand pairs of shoes on the floor of the pavilion, and judging from the ticket sale to date, there will not be the crowd present that has frequented previous social events this season. Large supply, little demand—hence plenty of floor space for all dancers. John Bailey, a member of the social committee, is conducting a temporary ticket office at a table in front of the auditorium. merce students was increased to five hundred. J. P. Wernette, who is assisting in making the plans for the assembly, states that full arrangements have not yet been made, but that detailed announcement of these arrangements will be made in a short time. He urges all commerce students to take note of the fact that the date has been postponed from next Friday to Friday, October 30. All commerce students will be required to attend. At the Pasadena Community Playhouse scoring a distinct success Is the presentation of the elaborate dramatic play, “Pharaoh’s Daughter,” written by Dr. and Mrs. Allison Gaw of the University of Southern California. The Playhouse was completely sold out last Monday evening. Commenting on the production, Dr. Rufus von KieinSmid said, “I think the conception—motive Tdea of the Play—the finest possible to the mind of man, that is, Godi is Love. “It has been worked out with an understanding, sympathy, and finesse that argue the hand or a master. The lines are beautiful, ranging from most tender expressions of mother love to the most forceful of triumph in sacrificial devotion. The whole has been so presented in such a way as to leave an impression captivating in the sincerity of its message. No one could have given a more masterful setting to it all than Gilmore Brown, with that witchery of genius for which he Is noted. He has so interwoven character and phrase with scenic art as to give a unity as altogether delightful as it is rare in present day stagecraft.” The play was originally submitted in the playwriting contest of the Pasadena Center, Drama League of America, where it attracted the attention of Margaret Anglin and the Shuberts. On three distinct occasions it was taken under option for production in New York. Only the excessive cost of costumes and stage sets prevented the successful producing of the play commercially. The Pasadena Community Playhouse, with its scores of trained, yet volunteer, workers has been able to present the dramatic work under the most ideal conditions. Plan For Retreat To Pacific Palisades Plans for the annual retreat or the Student Fellowship and Student Volunteers will be discussed at the regular meeting of the organizations to be held today. The retreat will be held on October 30, at Pacific Palisades, and will be a week end affair. A.W.S. Plans Thurs. Teas For Girls’ Dorm To offer women students a better opportunity of becoming acquainted, the A.W.S. plans a meeting every other Thursday in the Rrcreation Hall of the Women’s Residence Building. The first of these meetings will be held today from 12:15 to 1:15. It is to be very informal, as the object of the meeting is to have a good time, according to Ethel Oliver, president of the Associated Women Students. “We want every girl to come—old girls and new girls,” Ethel says.

C, Pavilion Saturday is the Sophomore day. ’Tis of the affair as the on that date that the austered wearers of the blue and buff shall frolic in the sanctuary of the basketball pavilion, flitting hither, thither, and yon to the delightful strains of “I Ain’t Nobody’s Papa,” or some equally sentimental selection. The always popular season of Hallowe’en will be officially opened at Southern California by this first dance of the Sophomore class, and committee chairmen promise a very impressive beginning to the customary annual reign of the black cats and other accessories. Henry Rohr, class president, speaks “Coming Out Party” of the Sophomore class, and urges every second-year student to attend. Hank also promises plenty of room for at least one thousand pairs of shoes on the floor of the pavilion, and judging from the ticket sale to date, there will not be the crowd present that has frequented previous social events this season.

At the Pasadena Community Playhouse scoring a distinct success Is the presentation of the elaborate dramatic play, “Pharaoh’s Daughter,” written by Dr. and Mrs. Allison Gaw of the University of Southern California. The Playhouse was completely sold out last Monday evening. Commenting on the production, Dr. Rufus von KieinSmid said, “I think the conception—motive Tdea of the Play—the finest possible to the mind of man, that is, Godi is Love. “It has been worked out with an understanding, sympathy, and finesse that argue the hand or a master. The lines are beautiful, ranging from most tender expressions of mother love to the most forceful of triumph in sacrificial devotion. The whole has been so presented in such a way as to leave an impression captivating in the sincerity of its message. No one could have given a more masterful setting to it all than Gilmore Brown, with that witchery of genius for which he Is noted. He has so interwoven character and phrase with scenic art as to give a unity as altogether delightful as it is rare in present day stagecraft.” The play was originally submitted in the playwriting contest of the Pasadena Center, Drama League of America, where it attracted the attention of Margaret Anglin and the Shuberts. On three distinct occasions it was taken under option for production in New York. Only the excessive cost of costumes and stage sets prevented the successful producing of the play commercially. The Pasadena Community Playhouse, with its scores of trained, yet volunteer, workers has been able to present the dramatic work under the most ideal conditions.
