Y. W. ANNOUNCES CABINET CHANGE
Margaret Burke Directs Changes
in Organization and Type of Meetings for Coming Year
Under the direction of Margaret Burke, the newly elected president, the outline of the year’s activities of the Y. W. C. A. is being drawn up. A smaller cabinet with a large number of sub-chairmen and committees is the new plan of administration, according to Miss Burke, and it is expected that the system will greatly facilitate the work of the organization.
A change in the hour, place, and frequency of meetings is also announced. Meetings were formerly hpld weekly at the “Y” lodge with a supper following. This year the plan has been formulated to have committee meetings weekly but to have the organization meetings monthly in the recreation room of the Women’s Residence Hall from 4:30 to 5:30. An informal supper meeting will follow at the “Y” lodge next door for all who wish to remain. It is expected that more people w’ill be able to attend the meetings under the new system whether it is the business meeting earlier or the supper meeting following.
To start the year's work and enable the new girls to become acquainted with the organization’s activities, a conference is being held at Pacific Palisades the week-end of Sept. 24 to 26 under the supervision of Ruth Whitney, Undergraduate Representative. Girls who would like to participate in any of the activities sponsored by the “Y” are especially invited to attend. Yearly dues of $1.00 wrill be charged this year for the first time in order to enlarge the field of work and allow for growing expenses. Lalla Rook Selbie has charge of singing up members and may be found at the “Y”.

Last year there was considerable talk among some of the students complaining about the compulsory rallies and chapels. As usual, there comes a time of testing. We are going to see just how much of that was talk and how much of it was sincere. We have yet to sit in on the first of the fifteen minute voluntary chapels but we are looking forward with interest to see how Dr. Baxter will manage them. If predictions may be allowed, we think they will be well worth going to for we know from personal experience the type of man Bruce Baxter is and we know his ability to say and do the worthwhile thing in half the time it takes the ordinary man.

Yesterday we outlined, briefly, some of the chief objectives for the coming year from the standpoint of an editorial policy. One thing which we did not mention but which we are going to keep always before us as a goal is the drawing of the off-campus colleges into a closer bond of friendship and fellow feeling. The greatest Troy is the united Troy. It wrill be hard to put our finger on this thing or that and say “Now we have put this proposition across.” Nevertheless, if at the end of the year the members of the student bodies of these off-campus colleges feel that Liberal Arts has met them halfway and honestly feel that they, in return, have done everything in their power to put over this “Greater Southern California” spirit, we may all consider that we have suc-ceeled.
* * •
The first thing that we were told about when we came back to our office this fall was the newr plans for the football rooting sections. If our information is correct, there have been sold about 2,000 student activity books. There ls no good reason why our rooting sections this year should not average very close to 2,000 students. But the thing that we are particularly concerned about is the developing of the women’s sections. Burdette Henney has worked out a new seating arrangement that looks good to us and one that will give the women a chance to be a real part of the Trojan support at the games.
Incidentally, the complaint was made that some of the sororities did not play quite square with the varsity and the rest of the University last year. Personally, we did not learn of the particular cases referred to and we are unwilling to believe that any of the houses this year will so deliberately disregard the loyalty they owe Southern California as to have teas and other conflicting functions on Saturday afternoons.
* • •
And may we, before we get too far away from vacation, let out just one little complaint that came often to our mind this summer? That is about the folks who put Trojan stickers on the windshields of their machines and then went whizzing up and down the highways and byways of the state with never a look of greeting for the occupants of other Trojan machines. It is discouraging to meet auto load after auto load of “Trojans” and to vainly wave to them while passing on the road. We knew they weren’t really ashamed of their stickers, but it didn’t look good. Supposing we remember that next summer.

The executive committee has accepted that proposition of the Southern Pacific railroad for the trip to Berkeley. This should be one of the greatest caravans in the history of the West. It is conceivable that not everyone will be able to make the trip by train, but we are keping this always in mind: whether we go by train, boat, aeroplane, auto—or on foot—WE’RE ALL GOING TO CAL.!
We hope it will not be taken in the wrong sense if we call attention to the fact that the size of the Daily Trojan has been increased from six to seven columns this year. It was our desire to do this if the business manager made it at all possible. A glance at the back pages of this issue and yesterday’s will show his answer, so we now have our seven column paper.
SOPHOMORE LEADER ENTERS DENTAL; MAY RESIGN
Entrance Into Dentistry Of Herbert Spenser May Cause New Sophomore Election.
Campus politics may be opened up anew in the form of a class president election if the sophomore class loses its present presiding officer. Herbert Spencer, newly elected president of the sophomore class, has lately transferred to the College of Dentistry and may be required to resign from his position. The entire matter must remain undecided for a day or two until registration has been completed, and a definite decision has been given by those in charge.
Spencer announces that he is undertaking a course in Dentistry, but is still going to continue to take several Liberal Arts subjects. It may possibly turn out that he can hold his office as sophomore president and still be registered in the College of Dentistry, but he has not as yet been advised as to what his status ie, and it may be several days before any definite action is taken .
TROJANS SMILE AS FROSH TOE MARK
Knights and Squires Enforce Campus Traditions On First Day of Classes.
As a definite start toward the enforcement of traditions among the incoming freshmen, the Trojan Knights aided by the Squires, began their early work yesterday with that class. Many unique and original methods were used, which in turn afforded much amusement to the balance of the student body. Principal among these wras the tie-up of shoes, and the painting of class numerals on the faces of the newcomers.
All during the day various freshmen were stationed around the campus directing traffic and entertaining wit,h songs or speeches. Each of the actors was cleverly outfitted by the Knights so that the effect was more amusing. Another act of the Knights was to compel the freshman class to erase the green “30” which was so much in evidence upon the campus walks yesterday morning. As these letters were made with paint it required a great deal of patience upon the part of both freshman and enforcer before the numerals were finally removed. Bricks and water were given the freshmen in order that they might better erase the green figures.
According to Red Dales, president of the Knights, this year’s freshman class is conducting itself in a most admirable manner and is rapidly adopting the conventional garb. He further stated that the spirit of the freshman class is the best he has ever seen in his four years at the University. No trouble of any kind was encountered with the various first year men yesterday, and they took the fun as true sports, according to Dales.
A day is being set aside next week for the annual freshman-sophomore tieup, and, according to certain indications it should be the most bitterly fought affair of the past few years. Certain Knights have expressed the opinion that the freshmen will wall-away with the bacon this year as they have shown more spirit and seem of a huskier type than the present sophomore class.
REGISTRAR COMES HERE FROM EAST
Installed as the new Assistant Registrar at the University of Southern California this month, Howard W. Patmore, coining from the Registrar’s Office of Columbia University, New York, will take the place vacated by Miss Anabelle Sasnett, Assistant Registrar for the past year at U. S. C., whose marriage to Professor Hugh Willett was an event of this summer.
Mr. Patmore, who is a member of Phi Beta Kappa and Sigma Nu, is a graduate of the University of North Dakota, where he served as Registrar for three years.
According to Registrar Theron Clark, the new assistant is also a musician, having been organist and choir director at the Brooklyn Church of New York City.

HELLO AND SMILE WEEK IS PLANNED
Bachelors Sponsor Traditional Attempt To Get Trojans Acquainted; Frosh Asked to Participate.
“Say hello and smile!”
That will be the slogan on this campus for the week beginning next Monday, according to the announcement made yesterday by “Bunny”
Lecky, chairman of the program for this traditional week. The event is being fostered by the Bachelor’s Club.
“Hello and Smile” Week is one of the most worth-while of the Southern California traditions, said M. Lecky, and one that should be backed by every member of the student body. It is particularly designed to help freshmen and entering students to get acquainted with their classmates on the campus and no one ie considered to rank too high In campus life or to oc-cUpj too lowly a place to greet ev^ry other student whom he meets.
Members of the Trojan Knights and the Berkeley station will be decided Amazons are to aid the Bachelors in j upon by the students. When leaving putting this event across and signs the train will pick those who will be and stickers will be generously dis- at San Francisco, Berkeley, and Palo
With a huge bonfire of ties at the Exposition Park and a gigantic rally at the L A. Coliseum, the Southern California University students will celebrate the eve of the Trojan-Bear football game in conjunction with the biggest Trojan send-off to Berkeley Friday, October 22 ,at 8:00 p. m.
Through a special arrangement with the Southern Pacific Railway Co. there will be a train exclusively for the Trojans. The train, which will be decorated with Trojan ornaments, will have special dance and lunch cars. It will leave the Exposition Blvd. at 10:00 p. m.
According to Art Syvertson, chairman of the Rally committee, the rates will be exceptionally low and will be less than the expenses incurred by any other means. He declared that the students who plan to go by cars had better take the train, as it will be much cheaper.
The train Is to arrive at the Berkeley station Saturday at 10:30 a. m., when another rally will be held. The Trojans will then march half a mile* to the Berkeley stadium where the Trojan-Bear football game will be held.
The departure of the train from
tributed to leave no doubt in anyone’s mind as to the intent of the tradition. The traditional period is five days, lasting from Monday through Friday.
“The frosh are particularly asked to get into the spirit of Troy at this time,” said I^ee Conti, member of the Hello and Smile committee, yesterday. “This Week has been sanctioned by the student body executive committee and it is up to us to make the most of it.”
PHARMACY ENROLLS
Alto.
All Trojan alumni who wish to make the trip will be considered on the same basis with the students. The round trip rate is to be announced lat)er. However, it has been estimated that it will not be more than $17.50.
NEW RUSHING RULES GOVERN PLEDGING
Offenders of Pan-Hellenic Rules
MANY FRESHMEN Fraternity Council. ^
Early registration in the College of Pharmacy has reached one hundred fifty, ninety-six of this number being entering freshmen. Dr. L. J. Stabler, dean of Pharmacy, states that this number of freshmen is twenty-five per cent greater than that of last year.
The faculty of that college has also been increased by the employment of two new men, A. G. Hall and Leonard Rhodes. M!r. Hall is an alumnus of this university, having at one time pitched for the baseball team. Mr. Rhodes was formerly of the University of Wiashington faculty. The total number of Pharmacy professors ie now fourteen.
Year after year, according to Dr. Stabler, the standards of the College of Pharmacy have been advanced. Last year the requirement was made that a three-year course be necessary for the granting of the degree of Ph.G. to a pharmacy student, whereas formerly the requirement was only two years. In the second and third years, courses in the College of Commerce, such as accounting and salesmanship, are now required.
The College of Pharmacy was organized twenty years ago. The present building which it occupies is a year old. Visiting professors who have inspected it state that it is one of the most complete and best-equipped buildings in the country.
Ignorance of the rules is no excuse,” according to the new Pan-Hellenic rushing rules which govern the entertaining and pledging of all freshmen women by Greek letter houses. Similar to the regulations of preceding years, the first afTairs given by the woman's fraternities will be the traditional Sunday Tea on September 19 at which time the newly matriculated students will be guests at the various houses.
One week of partial truce will follow the tea, during which communication between sorority girls and the rushees is limited to conversation on the campus. Monday, September 27, is the opening of formal rushing week, which will last until the following Friday night.
Each sorority is limited to $150 for rushing purposes, and must submit an itemized account of its expenditures to the Pan-Hellenic meeting following pledging. Infraction of any of the rules by groups or individuate will be judged and the offenders penalized by the Women’s Fraternity Council.
The theme of the spirit which the Pan-Hellenic organization is endeavoring to enforce during this time is quoted on the rules as “A spirit of honor and good sportsmanship will prevent any fraternity girl worthy of her pin from making unfair and disparaging remarks about any other fraternity.”
COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE GROWS
An enlarged building ,a larger faculty, and an enrollment which places it as sixth in size in the entire nation indicate a banner year for the Southern California School of Architecture, was the statement of A. C. Weather-head, dean of the school, yesterday.
The new addition to the building provides a large modeling room, a room for freshman and sophomore design, and a faculty office. According to Dean Weatherhead, the drafting room in the new wing of the building is one of the largest in the West and makes possible the arrangement of an exhibition room where student and
outside talent may be exhibited.
“These exhibits wiij be open to every member of the university and I urge all of the students to visit thean,” stated the dean.
Two new professors have been added to the faculty. Mrs. Louise Strang Griswold has been appointed assistant professor in art and architecture. Mrs Griswold was formerly director of the Broadmoor Art Academy and professor of art at the University of Wisconsin. Charles H. Diggs, formerly of the University of Iowa, will conduct a class in landscape architecture.
