LIBERAL ARTS TRANSFERS ARE LAW NOMINEES
Former Liberal Arts Politicians Renew Activities On the Law Campus.
ELECTIONS MONDAY
New Era Seen In Law School Activities And Politics.
That Tuesday's class nominations at Law School presented an example of real playing at poliUcs to aspiring Liberal Arts politicians, is the opinion of one recent transfer student. In all three class meetings the nominations of the respecUve candidates were met with much discussion. Prophecies that the battle for the major offices would be intense were met on all sides. The offices of class president and executive committee membership are the most important offices.
Ernest Roll, president of the Law School Student Body, who presided over the meeting of the freshman class, felt that this meeting was indicative of the beginning of a new phase in Law School politics. The nominees of the freshman class were: President, Manuel Ruiz and Arthur Freston; for Vice President, Cecile Zobelin; for Secretary-Treasurer, Ted Ward and Paul Fritz; for Executive Committee, Archie Eckdale and Eugene Craven; for Ath-leUc Committee, Gene Fay; and for Sergeant at Arms, Blanford.
. The outstanding feature of the nominations, according to a law senior, was the fact that all the nominees are ex-Southern California Liberal Arts students.
The nominees of the junior class are: President, Danny Draper and Dave Shattuck; Vice President, Betty Hensel; Secretary-Treasurer, “Stew'’ Fisher; Ex. Committee, Jim Jeffery and Bill Berger. Ranny Draper comes from Pomona College, and Dave Shattuck from Berkeley. The battle between the two, it is said, will be close.
Senior cL&ss nominations were marked by efforts to prolong the meeUng in order to use up the class period. The following persons were nominated: President, Elmo Bailey, John Hopkins, and Clarence Decker; Vice President, Harriet Pugh; Sec.-Treas., Eugene Wolver; Ex. Committee, Clarence Hunt; Athletic Committee, Sid Chernis.
The lawyers will have iour days in which to campaign, as the elections will be held on Monday.
Frosh “Queener” Proclaims His Love For Fair Sex
“I queen the women,” shouted a Frosh Don Juan from the steps of the Administration Building
yesterday while a group of Trojan Squires urged him on. “I queen the women, because I love them.”
There were no women present for the queener to queen, and the poor Frosh looked lonesome; so the kind-hearted Squires secured for him a partner in ignominy. Thereafter, when Frosh Number One yelled, “I qoeen the women,” Frosh Number Two shouted, “I’d like to.”
The demonstration was staged by the Trojan Squires as part of their duty of enforcing campus traditions.
WAMPUS ARRIVES ON TROJAN CAMPUS TOMORROW
Nursery Number Will Instruct Frosh In Ways and Manners Of a College Campus.
Vowing that no student will arrive at their classes Thursday morning without a copy of the Wampus, thirty energetic salesman under the leadership of Adna Leonard will be much in evidence on the campus tomorrow morning peddling the wares of Tommy Wamp. In view of the fact that the Nursery Number of the Wampus will be the greatest conglomeration of wit and humor ever assembled under the bright covers of a humorous publication, the only trouble the salesmen should find is keeping the fresh supply on hand.
Many of the old time contributors will be seen again in better ano greater accomplishments. Joe Du-chowny returns to the Wampus in the forthcoming number. Many of his writings have been reprinted in well-known magazines and he is a regular contributor to a number of professional publications.
Probably the greatest point of interest to the freshmen will be the frosh primer, a cieverly worked up affair by Gwendolyn Patton which besides being laugh-provoking will be very educational.
PLANS ON WAY FOR O.S. COMMERCE WEEK
Thurston H. Ross Acting For Secretary Hoover In Arranging Plans.
PROBLEMS STRESSED
‘Elimination and Waste In Industry’’ To Be Main Topic For Week.
To arrange the local program for National Management Week, October 25-30, Thurston H. Ross, Consulting Engineer and Professor of Industrial Management at the College of Commerce, has been appointed chairman for Los Angeles by Secretary Hoover, as a direct representative of the United States Department of Commerce.
“Elimination of Waste in Industry and Business” is to be the topic for this year. For the purpose of directing public attention to specific problems of waste elimination, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, the Society of Industrial Engineers, the Taylor Society, the American Institute of Accountants, the American Management Association, and the U. S. Department of Commerce, Washington, D. C. sponsor the annual nation-wide Management Week.
Organizations that are assisting locally in the movement are the Chamber of Commerce, local branches of the sponsoring groups, service clubs, and many special groups. Bulletins have been issued which demonstrate the possibility of elimination of waste through standardization and efficient management.
The first Management Week was sponsored by national engineering and technical societies in 1922. The different phases of conservation will be reported by Mr. Ross, who plans to hold discussions on several management subpects at Southern California during the week.
(Tlir ©16 Srojan’a (Column
GEORGE C. JORDAN It has come to our attention that several students who happen to be engaged in selling different things on the campus have been questionecl by their friends on account of some remarks that we made in this column recently with regard to a certain student who was planning on not sitting in the rooting section. It was not our intention, by giving his occupation, to start a search for the man. He was not a man of much significance on the campus and probably could not be found. What we were trying to do was to express the feeling we have toward his regard for our rooting section. The fact that he was agent for goods here was beside the point and we hope this will out an end to a curious prying into the identity of a man whose identity is not worth the trouble.
And the rushing is over when the co-eds walk to their classes again. If We were a very stern moralist we would probably have something to say about the ethics of getting out father’s Cadillac or Packard to blind the unsuspecting freshman girlies to the benefit tea tickets which they will shortly have to carry around to impoverished fraternity houses. But it’s all in the spirit of fun and the frosh will remember it as a bright spot in their lives, no doubt, so —more power, girls, it’s your act this week.

According to Dales, the Knights have been given complete authority by the police department to tag all the machines violating these rules. However, Red has a sense of justice and announces that for the next few days only warning tags will be given, but he also states that it would be a good idea to practice parking lawfully before the real tags are issued.
This rule is to be strictly enforced and there will be no exceptions made when the tags are issued. Dales received warning to this effect from the Traffic Department and he wishes the cooperation of all students on the campus.
DENTAL CLASSES 10
Student Body Vice-President Will Also Be Moved Today At Dental College.
ELECTIONS FRIDAY
Freshman and Sophomore Class Committee Will Be Chosen In Elections.
Nominations for Dental class officers and for a second vice-president of the student body are to be held today, with the elections to follow Friday, according to the president of the Dental student body. Thomas stated that there would also be an election of temporary freshman and sophomore class executive committees to serve until after the annual field day contests.
An amendment to the Dental constitution was made last year which provided for a second vice-president to serve on the Exposition Boulevard campus. It is this vice-president which is to be elected Friday.
The nominations today are to be made from the floor upon the report of a nominating and election committee composed of the presidents of the three last year’s classes which are returning this year. These men are Walter Heineman, past junior president; Rose Lelansky, past sophomore president; and R. A. Ravelle, past freshman president.
Election of the permanent freshman and pre-dental presidents will be held sometime between the fourth and sixth weeks of school, according to the Student Body constitution. The coming election Friday will be held by the preferential system of voting.	’

Milton Booth, editor of the Wamp-! us, has set October 5th as the dead-| line date for all contributions for the “Blue Law” number. All the mem-j bers of the staff are asked to meet , Thursday noon in the El Rodeo of-' fice, formerly the Trojan office.
'....We will really be glad, though, when this week is past. What with half of our staff “off ” at teas and with moving into our new offices, which the youngest on our staff do not seem to be able to find, we are having much ado to bring this sheet out. But it is just such occasions which bring out the loyalty of the few and show us upon whom we can count. It is a good thing for any organization to have such a testing and we welcome it. But we will be glad when it’s over and things take their normal course again.
The thing that really distinguishes any campus is the all-around interest of its students. We are proud of the Trojan varsity. We have expressed the esteem in which we hold the Southern California band. This University has a wide reputation for its track stars and debate teams. Today we welcome the development of a new interest, that in a little ther.tre movement among the undergraduate students.
The outstanding features of this ‘‘movement’ 'are five. First, the “little theatre’ is becoming rapidly established on all of the leading American campuses. Second, it is to be exclusively a student undertaking. Third, it will provide the most valuable kind of experience for those who intend, or have thought of taking up dramatic work outside of college, besides giving them a chance to get into a worthwhile campus_ field of activity. Fourth, it is being so worked out as to draw attention and interest from all of the Southern California colleges. Fifth, it traditions.

October 8 Is Set As Date For All-Frosh Frolic
All freshmen are asked to save the afternoon of Friday, October 8, in order to attend the second Freshman Frolic, which will be given at the men’s gymnasium, on the corner of University Avenue and Exposition Boulevard.
According to those in charge, there will be dancing, refreshments, and an interesting program, which is now being arranged. The Frolic will be similar to that given during Freshman Week. All freshmen are invited.
ASSISTANT MANAGERS FOR FORENSICS NAMED TODAY
Colston, Corbett, Harmon, Garrison, Laurence, and Wright Chosen Assistant Debate Managers.
Five new assistant debate managers were appointed to aid William Henley, manager of forensics, according to an announcement issued by Henley today. The five appointees are Frank Colston, James Corbett, Elwood Harmon, Marion Garrison, George Lawrence, and Charles Wright. The new aides will enter upon their respective duties at once.
In commentating upon the unprecedented number of appointees. Manager Henley said, “Never before has there been available for the work such an array of equally good men.” It was for the purpose of dividing the work that a number of selections were made, each with an eye to the appointee’s particular capability.”
Regarding his plans for the coming year, the manager had this to say: “One of our chief objectives this year will be to make debating at Southern California interesting the entire student body.”

DAILY TROJAN IN NEW HEADQUARTERS
Editorial Office Moved To Front Of Print Shop At 716 W. Jefferson St.
Yell Leaders Tryout
With 'final arrangements for the moving of the Trojan office completed, reportorial and editorial offices will be situated at 716 West Jefferson street, while the business office will move across the hall from the previous Trojan office. Assignments for reporters will be posted on the door of the Trojan office or on the bulletin board of the old office, but all work will be typed and turned in at the new headquarters.
Opinions as to the benefits to be derived from the change are divided. The distance ls inconvenient and the ventilation is not of the best, is the opinion of several people. The greatest benefit, according to others, is to be gained by staff members from the first hand experience ir. the printing office. Also, better facilities for handling last minute news will result from close contact with the printing press.
To clear up any hazy ideas as to the exact location of the new office, it is at “the sign of the tinsmith,” one door east of the J. and U. Cafe.
The El Rodeo, Southern California’s annual, now occupies the old Trojan office. The editorial room will be used, beginning about thp fifteenth of October, for taking pictures for the annual.

“We’re all going to California.” These were the words of Leland Dee” Tallman, president of the A. S. U. S. C, concerning the proposed exodus of Trojans to Berkeley on October 23, the date of the Trojan Bear football game.
That all students will be enabled to purchase tickets for the “Battle of the Century” was assured when Mr. Marshall of the Associated Students office announced that 8.000 tickets are to be sent to Southern California. These will be put on sale on or about the 13th of October. Student tickets, which will be honored for entrance to the Southern California rooting section, may be purchased by students for $1.0#. Other tickets to be placed on sale to the general public will be sold for $2.00. Holders of student activity books will be given preference over non-holders, according to the present plan. It is absolutely essential that all Trojans who wish to enter the Trojan rooting section purchase their tickets at the booth in the Student’s Store as none will be sold at Berkeley.
Southern California should have a great rooting section at the game, judging from the number of students who have signified their intentions of going to California The assistant yell leaders to be chosen from the group in the trials at Friday’s rally win be present to help Yell King Henney ln arousing the fighting spirit of Troy.
From present indications, those in charge of student transportation intend to leave no difficulty in transportation which will excuse a student for non-attendance at the Trojan-Bear fracas. Not satisfied with chartering special trains for the convenience of Berkeley bound rooters, the committees have made arrangements with the Los Angeles Steamship Co., whereby a special rate of $20.00 for the round trip will be offered to sea-loving Trojans. The boat will leave the pier in Los Angeles Harbor on Friday afternoon, and will dock at San Francisco on Saturday about 10 o’clock. This will enable those who intend to see the game to arrive at the stadium in time to meet the crowd that will leave by train.
In returning, the boat will be held over until midnight to accommodate those who intend to visit the campuses at Berkeley and ,Palo Alto and spend some time in San Francisco. Full information concerning the routes to be taken in getting to the bowl from the San Francisco docks will be published in the Trojan at a later date.
