By THE EDITOR EVERAL complaints have
been made to the student y activity book salesmen in ard to the activity books. The okout has given considerable ice in an effort to emphasize i importance of the $5 student ok plan, yet every day finds ne student raising an objection inly based upon the assertion it they have no use for it. That without a doubt the poorest t of an alibi.

Before the first month of this ,hool semester will have passed he student activity books will ave rendered service in excess to he cost of the book. In other 'ords, before March 1st, at least 7.25 worth of activities will have een given the students. The $7.25 s divided as follows: 25 cents ad-lission to the U. S. C.-Ohio Wes-eyan debate last night, and a $1 dmission to three games of bas-cetball with the University of Ari-:ona, two with Stanford and one ith California, plus a track and eld meet with Occidental Col-ege.

ow these events are the ones duled to date, and there is a cer-nty of at least two baseball games t to be included in the February ►al. Thus the total for February Il approximate about $10, or twice [* cost of the activity book. And in ►king ahead there will be added all a athletic and forensic events of :h. April, May and part of June, the El Rodeo, worth $5 alone.

ut of the numerous events offered the book alone, there is hardly a dent who will not attend at least of them, which is equivalent to cost of the activity book.

More than two thousand students had registered ior University Avenue classes, excluding Law School classes, up until 5 P. M. Monday evening. This was the information given out by Theron Clark, Registrar, yesterday.
Of this number, 265 were new stodents, and approximately one hundred of them were entering freshmen. Thirty-five new students had entered the upper division classes,♦ and fifty-five had joined the Graduate
School.
At five o’clock Monday evening, seventy students had succeeded in getting their permanent enrollment cards signed by all professors and had returned them to the office of the Registrar. In commenting on this fact, Mr.!
Clark stated that he was pleased with j the showing up to that date, but urged all students to get their cards signed as quickly as possible in order that late registration lees might be held to a minimum.
Regarding the efficiency of the registration system followed, Mr. Clark stated that 753 students started registration on the first day schedules were out, and that thereafter the nun. ber was large each day, but steadily decreased, proof of the fact that greater systematization and co-operation on the part of students is gradually be ing attained.
The exact number of paid enrollments Monday evening was 2170, and in addition there were approximately one hundred students who had started | registration but had not paid.
ONE THOUSAND EL RODEO BOOKS SOLD ON CAMPUS
All Colleges Except Liberal Arts Subscribe 100 Per Cent to Activity Books.
GREEN HATS, EDICT
Settling the much-debated question of the wearing of Freshman hats. Burke Long, president of the Trojan Knights, has announced that the scrub classes of the future must wTear their badges of inferiority tlicr satire year.
“Students who are entering now will not wear hats until September. However, they will continue wearing them until next February—as long as they are Freshmen. Beginning with the fall semester next year, the Frosh will wear hats for the whole year. This will eliminate controversy such as existed last semester over the eligibility of Frosh for the wearing of hats. The “dink,” the green jockey cap with the red visor that holds a sacred spot in the hearts of old-timers, will supplant the cardinal hat as the official mark of Frosh distinction.”
Further plans of the Knights include programs to be given between halves of basketball games. These programs, arranged primarily to keep the crowds off the floor, will consist of musical numbers and others of interest, presented by members of the student body.
The Knights are arranging to mark off the curb lines around the campus, allowing the width of a car. so that parking will be made systematic and a check can be put on thoughtless drivers.
Over one thousand activity books have been sold to the students of Liberal Arts with the expectation of selling nearly fiye hundred more during the next few* days. All other colleges have subscribed for the El Rodeo 100 per cent, and it only remains for Liberal Arts to come up to their allotment to make the sale a complete success.
According to Gwynn Wilson, graduate manager, the student body has responded very well and has proven beyond a doubt that it is in favor of the present method in vogue for the sale of the year book. He said, however. that a number of the students do not seem to realize the value of the El Rodeo. According to Wilson, the volume cost eight dollars and fifty cents to print and is sold to the student body for five dollars. Together with the book, the student also receives tickets to numerous athletic contests to be staged during the next semester. The total value of the activity book is somewhere near fifteen dollars.
Some students who registered early were not able to purchase the activity book at that time, but, according to Arnold Eddy, they will be given this chance during the next fewr days. These books will be on sale at the ticket booth in the student body store and should be bought before Thursday to include the ticket for the Stanford basketball game that night. Mr. Eddy stated that this ruling affects nearly three hundred students.
At the other colleges the ticket for the El Rodeo is included in the tuition and must be bought by every student. This ticket costs four dollars and fifty cents alone and athletic contests are not included, but must be bought at extra charge.
Rooms J-4 and J-6 Baffle Frosh.
Arrow Is Deceptive
New frosh who have been looking for J4 are going home to tell their mamas that classes are being held in ash barrels out at U. S. C., and this is all because they believe in signs and believe that when arrows fall to earth they always know where. Which is just another way of saying that an arrow pointing to J4 and 6 doesn’t point to them at all. but down an alley.
The alley leads to three ash barrels. and if followed fn its natural turns, it comes right back to Uni-versity Avenue again. “And here the matter rests,” except that new freshmen (and some not so new or so fresh) are telling their mamas that they are being consigned to barrels—not for cloth-
