SIG GAME TICKETS NOT EFFECTED BY STANFORD'S DEFEAT
Advance Receipts Show 30 Percent Increase Over All Previous Games.
That the recent defeat of Stanford at the hands of the Olympic Club would not affect the sale of tickets for the Southern California-Stanford football classic, scheduled for October 17, was indicated after an interview with Gwynn Wilson and Arnold Eddy, graduate manager and assistant manager, respectively.
Gwynn Wilson said: “The defeat of Stanford by the strong Olympic Club, composed of ex-California and ex-Stanford players, was not an accurate test of Stanford’s potential strength.
“ ‘Pop’ Warner has a new line developed which will make Stanford a dangerous contender in the future.’’
DAILY TROJAN TO RAISE STANDARDS EDITORS ANNOUNCE
Only Dependable and Efficient Writers To Have Positions On Staff.
“The standards ot the Daily Trojan are going to be raised.’’ This announcement came from Assistant Editor George Jordan yesterday while he was discussing future plans of the paper with members of the staff.
Tryouts are to be held this week and positions on the staff can only be secured by personally applying to Lee Conti, editor; George Jordan, assistant editor, or Freeman Hall, managing editor, for special assignments for the tryouts. Friday afternoon will mark the close of the tryouts and it was announced that all students seeking positions on the staff must have their assignments by that time.
Mr. Hall said, with reference to the tryouts, “All applicants must bring evidence of previous experience, such
Wilson added that “Warner’s teams have always gained ‘form’ slowly, at | as samples ol copy pieviously written, the early part of the season. The de- before they will be given an assign-
feat of Stanford will give Warner an excellent opportunity to get his men together for more serious work.”
Wilson said that the ticket sale for the Southern California-Stanford game was thirty per cent heavier than that of any game with which he has had experience.
Arnold made the following statement:
“Stanford’s defeat by the Olympic Club will in no way affect the ticket sale. I look for a capacity crowd.”
COACH JONES SPEAKS BEFORE Y. M. COUNCIL
President von KieinSmid Will Give Address At First Meeting in Y Hut.
Dr. R. B. von KieinSmid and Coach Howard Jones will be the principal speakers tonight at the first meeting of the University Y council to be held in the Y. M. C. A. hut from 5:30 to 7:00. Doug Ewans has planned a special musical program, and Don Cameron and Burke Long will give short talks also.
The program will open with the singing of several university songs, followed by several piano numbers by Elliott Pentz. Greetings will be extended to visitors from Cal*Tech, after which Don Cameron and Coach Jones will give short talks. After the address by Dr. von KieinSmid, the singing of Alma Mater will conclude the program.
New men in the university are especially invited to attend the Wednesday evenings councils. The meetings will close promptly at seven o’clock.
DOCTOR CRAWFORD SPEAKS AT Y.W. HUT
Today at 3:30 is the time, and the Y. W. lodge lawn is the plac6 for the first regular Y. W. meeting of the year.
“The University Girl and the Christian Way of Life,” is the subject chosen by Dean of Women, Mary Crawford, who will make the address of the afternoon. A violin duet by Ethel Williams and Lorene Hurley and a vocal solo by Eileen Rohrer of the college of music will make up the musical portion of the program. Helen Dillon, vice president of the Y. W., is to explain membership instructions and to outline the ideals and purposes of the organization. The question of whether Bible study should be commenced will also be taken up by the members at large.
After the meeting a swimming party is planned for all who care to go. Girls are to buy box lunches which will be eaten at the lodge; the Y will furnish hot chocolate. About 6:45 the party will adjourn to the Y. W. in town for swimming.
Since it is impossible to extend a personal invitation to every girl on the campus, those in charge are anx-
ment. If any student • wants to attempt journalism for the first time we can arrange for him to do so, but he must make this fact known at the time.”
The request for all applicants to personally apply to Mr. Conti, Mr. Jor dan or Mr. Hall was asked in order that applicants would receive their assignments directly instead of reading them on the Trojan bulletin board. Numerous students have asked for a position on the staff and have not given the matter any further thought and have failed to get the assignments posted for them, according to the editors.
The first purpose of the tryout is to aid in raiding the standards of the Trojan. The tryout will enable the executive staff to secure dependable, efficient and earnest writers for the publication. It will also raise the efficiency of the entire organization by the co-operation and system which will be developed and will enable the editors and executives to become personally acquainted with their staff.
In speaking of the possibilities on the Trojan staff, Mr. Jordan emphasized the demand for good writers and stated that there were still many positions open. After two years of active service on the Trojan, all staff members are presented with a key watch charm resembling a pen point in shape, with the Trojan emblem engraved in the center. To those who plan journalism as the'ir profession the national fraternity, Pi Delta Epsilon, is open to members who have done commendable work for at least two years.
Members of the Trojan staff who have been engaged on the staff and have received commendation Upon their work are eligible to the Press Club which fosters both educational and social advantages. Prominent speakers of various city newspapers are brought before the club at the meetings for the purpose of discussing journalistic problems and offering advice.
Through the new tryout method of Selecting the Trojan staff the executive department expects to raise the standards and value of the Daily Trojan.

However, the all-university formal, which comes some time in the spring, wiil be held at the temple.

The School of Architecture, although temporarily homeless during the building of the new school, is settling down to work with fresh zeal and enthusiasm under the able tutelage of the school head, Professor A.

Mr. Weatherhead, who was absent from the campus last year on his sabbatical leave, made an extensive tour of the United States, France, Spain and Italy.

Notable among the many improvements to be found on the Southern California campus this fall is the ap pearance of a full four-year College of Commerce and Business Administration superseding the old School of Commerce which formerly followed two years of work in liberal Arts. This change has been brought about by the administration in recognition of the fact that the nation’s future fi-nacial and industrial leaders must be educated along liberal as well as technical lines.

RAL ROBERTS SHOWS SKILL MGBAND
S. C. Band Entertains Crowd and Plans Many Improvements in the Future.
How did Hal Roberts learn to twirl the baton like that? This was probably the question that was uppermost in the minds of the spectators at the Coliseum Saturday when the Southern

BOVARD CURTAINS GIFT OF CLASSES
The graduating classes of 1924-25, in conjunction with the “Lance and Lute” society of intercollegiate players, are the donors of the new curtains, recently installed in Bovard Auditorium.
Of rich old Burgundy in coloring, the hangings blend perfectly with the soft gray of the back stage curtains and the lighter cream of the surrounding walls, making a pleasing picture which should add much to the enjoyment of chapel attendance.
Purchased at a cost of $750, the new curtain will stand as a memorial to the organizations from wh'Ich it came.
veteran devotees of the noble art of literature gave shouts of delight when greeted by the vivacious kitty. The lowliest Frosh and the most sedate Seniors could be seen getting tneir daily laugh from the super-funster.
The front cover of the varmint was one of the kind that leaps forth and dazzles the innocent bystander, and the boast made by Grady Setzler, chief instigator of the Wampus, that inno-ence would be effectually squelched by the educational activities of the pesky kitty, was well founded.
Material giving evidence of the greatest wit on the campus prevailed throughout the issue, and countless students are nowshoutiug the piaise of the Wampus staff. Trojan Squires leported that numerous Fiosh were •seen hiding their blushing countenances in dark corners while perusing the enlightening pages of the humorous kitty.
Grady Setzler, although announcing that he is pleased witn the well-fed kitty recently turned loose upon the campus, admits that there is a crying need for fodder in the coming issues. He is sending out an S.O.S. call for anything which aspires to the name of “humor. Any donations of this doubtful character should be placed is the Wampus box by October tith, if the
with music and maneuvers; for the smiling bandmaster’s skill with the baton is a never-failing source of wonderment when he leads his men on the field.
When asked how he learned the art of baton-twirling, Roberts was ready with a simple answer. He declared that it was merely an outgrowth of a habit that he had when he used to play baseball. “Whenever I went up to bat,” he said, “I always used to twirl the bat around my fingers before stepping up to the plate. From this custom it was not such a great step to twirling a baton wrhen I became leader of a band.”
The leader of Southern California’s band was enthusiastic over the prospects of his organization for the coming season. He said that new maneuvers were being learned by the musicians and a surprise in the way of uniforms was being planned for next Saturday’s game at the Coliseum. In order to perfect their plans * for the coming games, the members of the band are to hold a rehearsal Wednesday night on the third floor of the Old College and a drill practice Saturday at noon on Bovard Field.
According to Roberts, the S. C. Band this year has some of the best material in its history. Many of the men are musicians who are working their
business branches, highly technical subjects, and cultural topics. The new work is being given under the direction of Dr. Wallace McCook Cunningham, newly appointed dean of the college, who is being assisted by John Philip Wernette. Dr. Cunningham, who wras at the head of the department of finance at Southern California last year, giving courses in investments, banking, foreign exchange, markets and prices, and corporation finance, was previously an instructor at the Wharton School of Finance of the University of Pennsylvania and later professor in the Wall Street division of the school of commerce and finance of New York University, and assistant manager of the educational department of the Guaranty Trust Company of New York.
In commenting on the work of the new college, Dr. Cunningham states: “A new literature of business and a new technique have developed in the last twenty-five years. No’ university subjects are more stimulating than those that deal with business. They are deep and difficult, but they are such as to develop sane judgment, critical reasoning, originality, resourcefulness and the ability to organize and govern men and processes.
“A study of the causes of business failures reveals the value of trained, leadership. The purpose of this training is not to displace practical experience but to supplement and strengthen it by bringing together in systematic form the experiences of many business firms, by applying scientific analysis to business problems, and by interpreting business influences.” Through the expansion of its campus schedule and the absorption of the day commerce wrork of Metropolitan College, the year-old downtown division located in the Transportation Building, the new College of Commerce is now in a position to offer its students commerce work of high college grade which will equip them with an understanding of civics, accounting, commercial lawr, economics, transportation and trade, finance, merchandising, political science and a number of other more specialized branches of business such as insurance and advertising.
Popular Speaker Will Address Students On Vital Subject This Morning.
Dr. Charles F. Aked, who is to be the Chapel speaker for this morning, is to address the student body on a subject of vital interest. Dr. Aked was secured for a chapel program last year as many students had asked that he speak at Southern California. He gave a talk on Mark Twain and was one of the best received speakers of the year, according to Professor Bruce Baxter, head of the chapel committee.
Dr. Aked is to be a member of the S. C. faculty next semester as he will teach two courses in English. He is now pastor of Plymouth Congregational church and conducts the services at the West Coast Theater Sunday mornings. He is one of the best known lecturers in Los Angeles as he has traveled throughout the country on lecture tours. He is also the author of several books.
Dr. Aked is an Englishman, and while claiming England as his home, made fourteen lectures in the United States. He rose to special prominence when he was pastor of the Fifth Avenue Baptist church of New York, to which John D. Rockefeller belongs. He occupied the pulpit of the First Congregational church at Kansas City, and of the same church in San Francisco. He came to Los Angeles over a year ago as the preaching colleague of Dr. Frank Dyer, of the Wilshire Congregational church and has been preaching and lecturing here ever since.

With the available material this year, and under the leadership of Hal Roberts, undergraduates at S.

PRESIDENT WOULD PASS ON LOCALS
One hundred De Molays and fifty Masons have registered for membership in the Southern California Ma sonic Club during the first two days of the membership drive, and one day yet remains to sign the rolls. According to Al Swanholm, one of the leaders in Masonic Club work on the campus, success of the drive is now assured, although there are still many Jasons and De Molays who have not registered.
As soon as the drive is closed on the Liberal Arts campus, an opportunity will be given those Masons and De Molays attending Law and Dental Colleges to register. Friday will be given over to law students, and next Wednesday will be the day for the drive at Dental. Today will be the final day for registration on this campus, and all De Molays and Masons, whether old or new students, are urged to sign up before this evening, at the table in the main entrance of the Administration Building.
Future plans of the Masonfic Club, which was founded in the spring of 1924, include the erection of a building, and the petitioning of Square and Compass, national intercollegiate Masonic fraternity. During the coming year the officers intend to accept numerous invitations to several of the various lodges of the city, and to arrange a series of noon luncheons to which several prominent speakers will
