BISHOP STEVENS SPEAKS IN CHAPEL
-say D-do You S-stutter? There Is Relief In Sight
D-d-d-d-d-arn m-m-m-my s-st-st-s-stut-*ring.
“If you can’t say it, sing it,” has of-en been suggested as a possible emedy for stutterers, and such is in lact a part of the novel corrective process. which combined with hypnotism n a mild stage, forms the basis for he course that Leon Z. Wolpe, a sophomore in the college of Liberal Arts, Till offer this semester, sponsored by the School of Speech and recommended by Dean Immel of that department.
Registration in Wolpe’s class for stutterers and stammerers will be unrestricted and free of fees or tuition. Classes will meet daily at a time arranged for the convenience of the instructor and students.
The classes wrill be in the form of an organization designated as the Speech Improvement Society, similar classes of which have been organized and are in operation in eleven other schools and universities throughout the United States by the originator of the idea-,1
“Understand and be thoroughly convinced that it is only as the church preserves its liberty that we can accomplish the thing that we have been praying for, that we can bring in the Kingdom of God,” said Bishop W. Bertrand Stevens, head of the Los Angeles diocese of the Episcopal Church, in his talk to the upper class chapel yesterday.
Bishop Stevens opened his speech by relating the story of David and Saul, in which David was pursued by Saul into the city of Keilah where he was betrayed by the inhabitants and almost, delivered into his enemy’s hands. David finally escaped and went to the wilderness where he was promised the Kingdom. Bishop Stevens used this Bible story as an allegory to illustrate his statements concerning the problems of the present-day church, saying that David represented the Christian Church, Saul the uncomprehending world, and the city of Keilah, the city of the intrenched privileged, the city of intellectual blindness.
Preceding the address by Bishop Stevens, President von KleinSmid gave a short talk in the memory of Dr. Norman Bridge, benefactor and hon-
that the drive will close for the last time on Friday. There will be no other chances for subscriptions after this week, and the book w’ill go to press.
Tables have been placed at vantage points on the campus and subscriptions are being taken at these places. The price is still $4.50. three dollars being required to hold a book for the subscriber. The balance of a dollar and a half will have to be paid before the book will be delivered. El Rodeo plans to make its appearance sometime in May of this semester.
“This is the last warning to those who have failed to have their El Rodeo pictures taken.’’ said Ott. “We ■can not hold up the book for the sake of a few wrho are too careless to take enough time getting their appointment in the Y hut. The book will not carry their photo unless it is taken this week.”
Mr. Wolpe, and his cured pupils.
The Promise True, probably the orary alumnus of this institution, most novel feature of the whole idea, is the only requirement made of students entering the class to be conducted by Mr. Wolpe and reads as follows: I solemnly promise that I will do everything that may lie within my power toward the furtherance of a new club similar in nature and in name to the one for which I am now a candidate, once I, myself, am sufficiently bettered by this work to conduct one. I further solemnly promise that all instruction I may tender in the name of the Speech Improvement Club will be free of any charge whatsoever.
It is an outgrowth of thig*Promise True that classes have been started at Utrecht High School, Cornell Un iversity. College of the City of New York, New LTtrecht High School, Boy’s High School, Washington, D. C., Stuy-vesant High School and the Univer-

“SILVER BOX" SET FOR LATE MARCH
Cast of Play Chosen Entirely From Members of Collegiate Players
“The Silver Box,” Galsworthy’s dramatic play will be produced by the National Collegiate Players the third week in March, according to recent announcement by that organization.
“In presenting 'The Silver Box’,” says Ellsworth Ross, manager of the production, “we feel that we have a sure-fire hit. It is one of Galsworthy’s best productions and ran in New York starring Ethel Barrymore, with great success.”
“The Silver Box” is a comedy with a strong mystery element running throughout. In the last act the situation becomes more dramatic and contains one of the most human appeals of any play ever written,” continues Mr. Ross. “The dialogue is sparkling and clever and the interest never flags,”
The cast for the play is entirely from the Players, and has been chosen during the past week, with rehearsals to start at once.
Miss Florence Hubbard who is directing the comedy and Mr. Ross, the business manager, are making arrangements for lavish sets and costumes.
The final plans have not been completed; the club are hoping to give their production during the chapel hour, with a small admissoin fee.
Definite announcement of the time, place and price will be announced in the Trojan later.

NEED FOR TRAINING IN
WORK IS MET
Prof. Stabler To Offer Course Leading to B. S. Degree in Petroleum Engineering

BIG THREE END ATHLETIC WAR
Action Taken in San Francisco Will Bring About Changes In Schedule
The resumption of the tri-anugl&r agreement between the University of Southern California, University of California, and Stanford University was decided last night at a meeting of the athletic representatives of the three universities at San Francisco Harold J. Stonier, executive secretary of the University of Southern California was the representative of this university at the meeting.
Definite dates with Stanford University have already been set. On March 28th the Southern California Varsity track team will have a meet with Stanford. Up to the time of press it was impossible to find out whether this meet would be held in Southern California or at Stanford.
On next year’s football schedule for the Trojans, Stanford has already made negotiations for November 14. As far as it could be found out no definite date has been arranged for a track meet or a football game with California, but it is supposed that m-as much as California and U. S. C. have only tentative dates with other schools some get-together may be made.
The athletic relations between the three universities were broken off on November lv 1924 at the California-Southern California football ga:ae. The action taken last night by the representatives of the three universities is a result of the efforts they have been making toward a reunion of athletic relationship.
MARINE LIFE FILM NEARS COMPLETION
After several months of hard work, the picture of marine life which is being produced by the Zoology Department of the University of Southern California is almost completed. It will be released in a short time and will be used in schools throughout the country for educational purposes.
The film is directed by Mr Paul Greely and is photographed by Don Gillum. It is supervised by Professor A. B. Ulrey. A few people were present at a preview showing early this week and those who saw it declared that the picture was not only of a great educational value, but also was extremely interesting ,even to people not generally interested in subjects of this type.
Miss Josephine Clancey of the publicity department 'was well pleased with the film and said that it wa3 particularly well directed and photographed.
The picture, which was begun last fall may be described as being of the popular scientific type.
Greeks Of All Kinds Will
Be Exposed By Wampus
Students at O. A. C. have been penalized $25 and the loss of credits for abuse of library privileges.
Wampus, though not attired in a Greek robe, nor wearing a laurel
wreath, will be brimming over with the greasiest of Grecian atmosphere, nevertheless, on his much heralded
appearance, March 3.
The cover for the Greek number is on unofficial exhibition. It is said to be one of the best seen on any local publication. The figure is of a sophisticated appearing girl, gaily clad, on a black background, which produces a striking effect. The artist is Valerie Baldwin.
The staff, which is larger, has been working overtime (as usual). As the editors have had more opportunity to look over the copy, they have caught and discarded every detail which will not make hilarity.
Many writers and artists for this number have gone back to the Grecian classics for inspiration. As a result, their material although distinctly not highbrow is classical—deals with the Grecian games, chariot rac-
ing, frats, etc. One able writer has even gone through the archives for material on the origin and history of U. S. C. Greek houses.
As has been mentioned before, perhaps, this issue is especially dedicated to Hell Week, “Russian Week. ’ Interfrat track meet and Interfrat ball. Experiences of the rushee pledge, active, honorary, alumni and faculty members will be related sympathetically—but truly.
“The students have taken much more interest in this number than in any of the previous issues,” said Grady Setzler (guess who he is!). “The result is that we have received more and better work. We also hvae received much inside dirt about various organizations which, in the end, may have to be surpressed.”
Copy should start to come in for the Feline number, which will be dedicated to the co-eds, according to Setzler. All the weakness and foibles of the caltier sex (if any exist) will be exposed in this issue.
