OREIGN TRADERS HAVE LUNCHEON
[iis Couttolene Invites Students To Visit Offices of Foreign I Consuls in Los Angeles.
Foreign Trade Majors in the College Commerce expressed their approv-of the group luncheon plan at# their st monthly meeting last Thursday >on. According to Leslie Harding, lairman of the group, the group lun-leon plan is destined to be a success the enthusiasm voiced at this meet-fg is to be taken as a criterion. Professor Clayton D. Carus and Le-py Haynes, President of Commerce, [ere introduced by Harding as rep-?sentatives of the faculty and stud-pt body of the Colltge of Commerce. It. Carus emphasized the point that s yet 91 per cent of the world’s com-lerce moves from East to West, while bly 9 per cent mores from North to >uth. Carus expressed the opinion, bwever, that the North-South trade lould increase greatly in the future, i Luis Couttolenc, the principal speak was presented by Harding. In is speech, Couttolenc stated: kmorican manufacturers and export-should take advantage of the op->rtunity offered by foreign advertis-ig mediums to advertise their wares those countries, and after doing this hey should follow up the leads thus [ained. During the fiscal yoars 1917 to 1925, exports from I <>s Angeles harbor Lcreased from 7 million to 74 million [ollars."
[ In closing Mr. Couttolenc said that Lany of the foreign trade consuls had asked him to tell the Foreign Trade Majors at Southern California that hey would be very pleased to have hem call at their offices, and that they rould be glad to be of any possible assistance to the students.
‘When one stops to realize that these consuls have the latest information on their respective countries, one soon understands the value of such an invitation,” said Mr. Couttolenc.
Fireworks of a spectacular nature, the annual pajamarino, a talk by Harold Stonier, introduction of former football captains and student body presidents, featured the rally Friday night which was held in the Figueroa bowl.	*
Approximately five thousand people filled the east end of the coliseum and witnessed the freshman pajamarino which is held before the homecoming game each year. The first year men, in pajamas and pre- modern gowns of other years, formed a mammoth serpentine, fantastic in appearance, each man carrying a torch.
The fireworks proved very successful, a series of “Ohs” and ‘‘Ahs” coming from the crowd after each burst ol red, green and other colors,, Don Cameron, Student Body President, presided over the rally, introducing former student body presidents and football captains, from 1895 to 1925.
Wes Woodford and Archie Lewis, assistant yell leaders, conducted the singing and yelling.
The coffin which wras supposed to burn while the frosh tossed in their source of wory, namely their cardinal hats, really did burn when some zeal ous frosh tossed his torch into the box. After valiant work by the firemen present, the bier finally subsided, however not before the crowd used up its handkerchiefs trying to keep the sulphur from putting its eyes out.
The freshmen, 500 strong, staged their annual dance, entertaining the crowd with their conception of what pajamas should look like.
Harold Stonier gave one of his characteristic pep talks, stressing the fact that Southern California is something besides a football field with a college attached. Mr. Stoniers speech was broadcast over the country by radio.
PROM TICKETS GO ON SALE FOR ONE WEEK ONLY
Sale of Engraved Bids is Postponed Until Week Before Big Affair.
Planning to concentrate the sale of bids for the Junior Promenade into one week prior to the actual date of the dance, an announcement from Bob Service, ticket sales manager, postpones the opening of sale of bids until Friday, December 4.
Tickets were to have been put on sale today, according to advance in-1 formation. That the proverbially “broke” condition of campus daters will be improved after a visit home to the “folks” during the Thanksgiving vacation was another of the reasons for the delay in the opening sale. Returning to the campus with a fresh supply of filthy lucre, upperclass students will be given the opportunity to purchase the engraved -bids on December 4.
Coming as the one bright spot in the dark weeks of interlude between Thanksgiving and Christmas vacations the Junior promenade will be heralded with glee by the exclusive members of the favored upper classes of Liberal Arts, Law, Commerce, Dental and Pharmacy.
While sophomores tear their hair and frosh join in the chorus of wails following the announcement none other than juniors and seniors will be allowed to attend the traditional Promenade, a few wise ones among the lower classes have come out victorious in the scramble of dating upper-class co-eds. This is being frowned upon, however, as it is the intent of the committee to make attendance at the ball a distinct social achievement.
Reva Hawkins is heading the favor committee that is working on plans to produce the most novel and altogether unique dance novelties that have as yet appeared at any university formal. Instead of providing favors for both the men and the girls, it has been the decision of this committee to have one beautiful favor for the girl.
In speaking of this, Art Syvertson said, ”We fellows want to give our lady the most wonderful evening possible, something she will remember for many moons.”
DENTS TO PUT ON ANNUAL MINSTREL WITH LARGE CAST
Charleston Chorus To Do Tricks; Kussell Directs; Date is Thursday, Dec. 17.
Work is now full under way for the production of the Minstrel Show that Dental College stages each year. It will be given in Bovard auditorium on Thursday night, December 17.
Rehearsals will be held every night for a short while; the chorus will get together some of the time, and the men who are in the solo acts will practice the other nights.

Mr. Kussell says, “With all this world of material and fine talent I shall have no trouble whatsoveer in selecting a cast that will do justice to all my efforts.” The first announcement of the cast will be made in the next few days, as it will probably be chosen after the tryouts tonight.
Jack Laughlin is president of the Odonto Club that produces this minstrel show every year; he will endeavor to re-enlist the services of all those who participated in the very successful show last year, as well as the new stars that scintillated for the first time in the preliminary tryouts one night last week.
The tickets have not as yet been put on sale by Glenn Coffin, business manager.
The total earnings of the minstrel are turned into the student loan fund, which was organized some years ago by Dr. Julio Endlemann. This is a very worthy cause and is always benefited greatly by this show every year.
