“Smilin’ Through,” a delightfully sparkling drama full of Irish wit and pathos, looms as a big attempt on the I>art of the underclassmen in the field of stage presentations. Their latest enterprise met with immense success on the legitimate stage featuring Jane Cowl and also in the film with Norma Talmadge.
The probable date ol the production I 'hat this tenor has will be Friday morning, November 14, question truthfully, at the time usually given over to rallies. The proceeds are to be used to furnish Bovard Auditorium with more complete and modern stage equipment.
Miss Tacie May Hanna, who is di- J career recting the youthful aspirants, is ex ceedingly pleased with the splendid material and wonderful spirit shown by the selected cast. She said that while all credit is due those who labor long and painstakingly over theii lines, yet the publicity and music are probably not just as important and will show much
originality.
The final clhoice of cast is as follows:
John Carteret, Bert Teitelbaum:
Dr. Owen Harding, Homer Merchant; Ellen, Lucile Knapp; Kathleen,
Vesta Owen: Willie Hinley. Stanley Milholland; Kenneth Wayne, Donald Mayhew; Jeremiah Wayne. Stevens j in Fargo: Moonyeen Clare,

TEMPERAMENT HAS NO PLACE IN CONCERT SAYS CHAMLEE
Singer Varies Old Tradition By Making First Success in America, Adding to Laurels In Europe
Mario Ohamlee, famous tenor to sing in Bovard Auditorium October 16 for the benefl- or the Trojan statue'lunKl, declares he'has no fads or hobbie> “Temperament,” he says, “interferes with the human quality necessary for an artist who wishes to appeal to an audience.”
When asked by a Chicago reporter recently concerning his hobby, the Trojan alumnus replied that he had no fadsi ‘ I’m just a singer that’s all,” he said. When asked how he filled in his idle moments, he replied he didn't
know a singer had anv idle moments. C-

FOR FIRST DEBATE
Immigration Law of 1924 Will be Subject for First Conference Meet
MARGARET QUAYLE SPEAKS AT CHAPE
Relates the Great Assistance Given by Student Friendship Fund to Poor
Mr. Chamlee has distinctions from he average artist though he does not iroclaim them. For example, he es-ablished his reputation as an artist n America firsthand then started his in Europe, while most artists consider the reverse necessary.
Then in spite of the fact that he is so well-known to opera audiences. Mario Chamlee, has sung over the radio only twice and because of his opera and phonograph contracts will be able to broadcast again. The first time he sang was foi an operatic concert at tlit politan Opera house one Sunday night | in the early days of the radio, the whole concert being broadcasted as! an experiment. The second time was when he sang one solo at a dinner of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Club at the Waldorf Astoria another broadcasting experiment Katherine when for first time in the history of radio a song was relayed from one station to another and so not only covered the whole Nortli American continent through being related by six stations from New York but was also heard in England.
Tickets for the student concert are on sale at the Student Book Store. Students have been offered special tickets to hear this Trojan alumnus sng October 16 and may be purchased for 50c to $L.50. Regular tickets are 75c to $2.50 and while many reservations have been made many good tickets are still on sale, and may purchased at the Student Store,

Ray Brennan, debate manager, and Bill Barber, captain of the U. S. C. debating squad, attended a meeting of the Southern California Debating Conference representatives held at Occidental on Friday of last week, at which time the subject for the first | meeting of the conference schools was j ohosen. The question, "Resolved: i That the Immigration Law of 1924 be | so Amended as to Admit Japanese on ; the Same Basis as Europeans,” is of vital importance and both negativel and affirmative teams can find a host j Metro-1 0f arguments both pro and con. ac-j cording to Ray Brennan. The date for the first debate has not yet been definitely decided pon. but those in charge state that early in November will see the seven schools represented meeting to solve the immigration question.
In addition to Southern California, the following colleges and universities are in the conference: Southern Branch, Occidental, Redlands, Pomona, Whittier and California Tech. Chas. Marsh of the Branch was chosen president of the conference.
Ray Brennan states that although there is a large umber of debators out for the squad, he feels that there is a great deal of talent in this line that has not yet signed up. He urges all those who care at all for debating to get in touch with either himself or Sam Gates in the office of the Student Body president in the Students Building and sign up in time for the tryouts for the coming debate.
“The subject has been announced to
«
all on the same terms,” stated Ray this morning, ‘ and there is no reason why all interested in debating should not start work on it right away and take part in the try-outs. Coach
FELLOW TROJANS
This year, at the request of the students, the administration has done away with compulsory attendance at rallies. Student officers do not believe that it is possible to make Trojan spirit by compulsion.
Friday, at ten, the hour has been given to the students to learn University songs, to practice bleacher stunts, and to carry''on school activities. This is impossible if the students do not attend. Last Friday more students watehed the taking of movies in front of the University than attended the prep-ira’ion for the Pomona game, the result was one of the poorest rooting sections in years. We have been given the opportunity by the administration to (demonstrate that we will attend rallies if they are placed entirely in our hands. Do we care enough for our showing in the rooting st-ctlon, before the public, to attend the ten o’clock rallies? The question stands squarely before us.
Tomorrow Coach Henderson will address the student*. Henry McCann will explain bleacher stunts and lead singing- Will the auditorium be full? The students hold the answer.

Hunter, coach of the football team, has consented to speak to the student body, and although the subject of his talk has not been made public, it promises to be on a topic of great interest to the Trojans who are loyal supporters of the team. Hank McCann urges all “rooters” to be present, for plans are to be made for the rooting section for Saturday’s game.
It has been announced that the Varsity team leaves for Oregon next Tuesday night at 7:45 o# the Southern Pacific. One of the biggest rallies in the history of the University is to be staged that night at the Nation, to give the team a hearty send off and show that the entire student body will be standing back of them when the game is played up north.

When the sun rises on Friday, Oct. 10, the quietude of the U. S. C. c-ajp-pus will be broken by a great rumble. This will signify to tlhe older student3 that the annual A. A. E. membership drive is on. In past years the engineers have taken many cups and banners for 100 per cent membership.
This year, however, according to President Collins, “the aim of the engineers will be, not to have 100 per cent membership, but to have all the engineers satisfied.”
The campaign members will be con-
ducted in the form of a contest based on a point system. For each new member obtained who pays both national and local dues 3 points will be given, one point for national and 2 points for local dues.
In the case of the older men two points will be allowed, one for national and one for local dues. The contest will close at 1 P. M., Oct. 17, in order that all new members may be initiated on the 23rd.

Seniors Asked to Pay Class Dues at Once By Vice-President
Once more the call for Senior class dues has be£n broadcasted by Marguerite Matson, vice-president of the Senior class. Dues evidently are not coming in as they should, arid as the success of the Senior Dance depends upon these dues, all Seniors are urged to pay up at once.
If present plans materialize, the dance will take place on December 6, after the Syracuse game.
The class dues committee includes Yale Martz, chairman, Martha Smith, Marguerite Matson, Clair*. Hamman, Bill Delphey and John WToods.
