NUMBER 46
DEAN OF MILLS TO BE AT S. C. FOR TWO DAYS
Dean Adams Will Officially Inspect Campus Tomorrow and Saturday.
Whether or not S. C. women will be granted the privileges accorded members of the American University Women rests with the students ot (his campus on Friday and Saturday of this week, according lo a report from W. S G. A. officials. Dean Katherine R. Adams of Mills College will at that time officially inspect the Southern California campus as an official of the national organization.
“Do not sit in cars while on the campus; do not wear exaggerated clothes.” These are the requests made, with the added appeal that the campus be shown to a good advantage during this vital inspection.
That S. C. women are not given scholarship preferences, full memberships in University clubs, or other advantages gained by women who were former students of recognized universities is due to the fact that the local group is not accredited with membership in A. U. W.
Meeting every two years, the national association considers the colleges applying for admission of the points of women’s residence hall accommodations, scholarship standings, Women’s Self Government Associations, and general campus standing. All these requirements have been met with the exception of the latter, which will be reported upon following the visit of Dean Adams.
At a special cabinet meeting Friday afternoon. Dean Adam? will pass judgment on the functioning of the local W. S. G. Association. Through this association and Pan-Hellenic, all campus women are urged to co-operate with the authorities for the purpose of bringing the national association of American University Women to the S. C. campus.

Determination Made To Prohibit Registration Of Women Who Disregard Regulation Of President In Spirit And Letter; Welfare Committee Approves.
Condemning the habit of smoking by women, President von KieinSmid has issued a statement requesting the prohibition of any
such practice by S. C. women. The Student Welfare Committee, headed by C. V. Gilliland, has voted to cooperate with the president in the enforcement of this regulation, by refusal of registration, if
necessary.

Health Center Established By Physical Education Department At 3609 University Ave.
Inaugurating a crusade for physical perfection among women students. Dr. Mabel Durbin and Dr. Alice Goetz of the Physical Education department have established a new Health Center at 3609 University Avenue.
The purpose of the Health Center is to follow up all upper division women students whose physical examination records show some defect. If these students are still defective in any wa^ th»*y are offered the benefit of consultation in order to take corrective measures before graduation.
Officials of the Health Center are also checking on all students who show any marked deviation from the normal scholastic standard. This is found to be caused, in the majority of cases, by excessive work outside of school, proving injurious to the health of the individual. A difficulty of this type may be eliminated by a modified program which makes for efficiency.
“We hope to have all women students take advantage of this opportunity,” stated W. R. LaPorte, head of the Physical Education department, “as this system has been used successfully in a number of Eastern colleges and has improved health, efficiency and scholarship.”
TROJAN KNIGHTS-AGAIN TO HANDLE TRAFFIC PROBLEM
Officers Are To Be Withdrawn From University Avenue: Situation Has Been Improved.
Officers who were regulating student traffic have been withdrawn by the University police station and the Trojan Knights will again handle the traffic problems of the University, it became known yesterday afternoon.
The problem of student traffic regulation is thought to have been lessened somewhat by the presence of the officers, and the Knights are thought capable of keeping the matter well in hand.
The police department is planning to place buttons at the intersection of University avenue and 36th place, but as yet no action has been taken.

From across the Pacific comes word that members of the Southern California faculty spent a short time at the University of Hawaii during their world tours. While at the Island college, they were guests of the Trojan alumni. Professor Lynn Clark and Miss Elizabeth Johnson of the Spanish department recently visited the University, and a welcome is being arranged for Dean Rockwell D. Hunt and Professor John Hill who are expected to arrive in approximately three weeks.
William C. Smith, formerly of the Southern California faculty and student body, and now connected with the economics department of the University of Hawaii, stated in a letter to Wayne Harrison, manager of the Trojan, that there were a large number of Trojan alumni on the island and at the University.

vigorously condemned. It has always seemed to us an indulgence carried on either in the spirit of ‘naughtiness’ or bravado—in either case not conducive to the development and preservation of the finest qualities of womanhood. Even if practised as a ‘mild indulgence,’ it is contrary to the best interests of college students Education means discipline and self-discipline is in all particulars the mo3t effective,’* stated the President.
He continued, "While not wishing to discuss in this communication any moral issues involved, it is the request of the University that there shall be no smoking whatever either ln the Residence Hall or in sorority houses, or in any other home approved as a student residence for women by the Committee on Student Welfare, or at any student function under the auspices of the University.”
“Believing that we are sustaining an important ideal in this declaration, we wish further to express the desire and the determination not to register as students in the institution any young woman who cannot agree with us in this emphatic position against smoking and who do not respect the regulation in both spirit and letter.”

It is quite true that the editor ial end of newspaper work con sists of writing, and insofar as it calls for a creditable use of the English language it ties into the English department. But there is a good deal of feeling between the true professor of English and the newspaper man. The one, typified in a professor on this campus, has not much use for the rapid fire, mechanical expression of the reporter and editor. The other, if we mav be so personal as to take ourselves as an example, has not the time for rhetorical write-ups when he is running a constant race with time to get his conv to the operator under the “deadline.” Furthermore, he does not feel that the public which reads the newspaper cares to read through an essay to get the facts of the day’s news. The reader wants facts, boiled down and up-to-the-minute.
* * *
Now, we do not quarrel with the literary man. In our own columns we give a place to his interests, feeling that' they are worthy of the same consideration as the tastes of the sport fan, the music lover, and the social leader. But we do wish that some of our reporters would forget that prize essay they wrote in high school and get down to giving us facts in quick, readable shape.

Now, to connect all this with our doubtful admission of the President’s correctness in saying that iournalism ties closely into the English department. Journalism ties into LIFE.

Sabbatical Leave; On Display In H. 205.
BEFORE VACATION
Coming as an outgrowth of the Social Research LaboratQry, thirty charts, illustrating the different types of race attitudes, have been prepared by Dr. Emory S. Bogardus, head of the department of sociology.
The charts show how race prejudice varies according to sex, age. religious beliefs, racial culture, and geographical location. Information for them was secured from a study of one thousand Americans in New York, Florida. Tennessee, Illinois, Kansas, Washington, and California, and was gathered by Dr. Bogardus while on his sabbatical leave last year.
These charts, which are on display in room 205 Stowell Hall, are the first of a series of research investigations being carried on in the Social Research Laboratory.

REVIEW OF ‘TORCHBEARERS’ GIVEN
By CHARLES WRIGHT
Do you want i > laugh until your weary sides relax from overfatigue ? Then by U means avail yourielf of the opportunity of seeing “The Torch-Bearers,” George Kelly’s three-act satirical comedy. which is to be presented in Bovard Auditorium. Friday evening.
__♦ The plot of the play concerns itself
with the pathetic attempts of a neighborhood group of actors to attain the greatest heights of dramatic art through the medium of the local community playhouse, which organization is under the direction of Mrs. Duro Pampinelli, who seems to epitomize all that ia worst in amateur directors. She is a temperamental eccentric with the peculiar capability of rattling the cast more than she helps. Mrs. Duro Pampinelli is played by Lucille Taylor in a very creditable way. Her voice and character sustaining is thoroughly commendable.
Mrs. Paula Ritter, played by Aileen Powers, is a very dumb wife who is told that she possesses histrionic talent. She is a very, very, silly little wife. Hers is an exceedingly innane character to portray, but she does it with comical realism.
Mr. Spindler, taken by John Mcln-tire, promises to

That syncopation for the Sophomore Hop. to be held November 24 at the Tri-Delt house, will be furnished by a leading campus orchestra, is the statement of Cecile Vigne, sophomore vice-president and chairman of arrangements.
“Coming Wednesday, the night before Thanksgiving vacation, the hop will serve as a means of celebrating the release from studies.” states Miss Vigne. “The dance is informal and dates are discouraged, although not debarred.” Dave Brv»nt. class president, made this more emphatic by the statement that “stags have always been plentiful at such dances in the past; so don’t be bashful, co-eds.”
The Tri-Delt house, located at 2407 South Flower, is adequate for tho accommodation of a large crowd, which, if former sophomore dances are to serv& as prophetic, will be sure to attend the affair. Tickets will b* only fifty cents, and the dance starts at 9:00 o’clock.
