Bids for the traditional upper-class formal will be restricted to members of the Junior and Senior classes. That no exception to this rule will be made is the positive information given out by the Juniors, who stress the exclusiveness of the 1925 promenade.
“Altogether unique” is the advance word that comes from the inner sanctums of the Prom organization. To make the Junior Prom an event that will be remembered for many years to come in the annals of S. C. society, novel plans have been adopted for carrying out a motif of distinction.
The main ballroom of the Ambassador hotel has been chosen as a background suitable for the staging of what the committee declares will be the most colorful ball within the remembrance of Trojans. The Bilt-(CONTINUED ON PAGE FOUR)

Judging on real merit rather than beauty, the section in the El Rodeo which was formerly the beauty contest section will this year contain the pictures of the four men and four women on the campus who have done the most for their Alma Mater during the past year, according to Ed Murray, the editor of the annual.
“Absolutely fair and unbiased will be the selection of these people to be honored. It will not be a matter of friendship of petty dislikes. We have not yet decided whether the choice will rest with the executive committee or a faculty group. Every line of university activities from dentistry to dramatics will be considered,” says Murray.
Work is now being laid out in signature, prior to active work on the various phases of material. A great deal of the time is being used for taking pictures. From three to six p. m. and after dinner, the photographers are going to the Greek letter houses in order to simplify the work. The charge for the pictures this year is regularly one dollar a person, or one-fifty for seniors. It is essential that everyone have the money ready when his or her picture is taken to avoid confusion in the orders. Also

WHAT IS THE TROJAN UNION? •
The recently organized campaign on the Southern Calilor-nia campus for a Trojan Union Building has raised a great deal of interest and not a little inquiry among the students.
What is a Student Union? What would the T. rojan L nion include? How would it definitely benefit us? 1 here are a few of the questions heard about the campus.
A Student Union is a building given over entirely to student usage for lounging, business and social affairs of university ! students. It may be owned by the university of the student body, but it is an entirely student organization and run for their benefit entirely.
Numerous plans have been proposed for a Trojan L nion, but the most feasible one seems to be a four-story brick building in the general style of the newer campus architecture.
In the basement of this building is a swimming pool to be open to men and women on alternate days. « The first floor is given over to the Associated Student Store and a lunch room, j while the second floor is the home of athletic, student business, and publication offices. This leaves the third and fourth floors j ! free for lounging and reading rooms, and club and committee rooms.
Though this building is still an air-castle in the minds of a small group of energetic, far-seeing students, it may easily become a reality through the support and co-operation of the entire Trojan student body.
with alumni, I advise reservations of tickets early, because there will only be two hundred places allowed seniors.”*
Tickets may be purchased either from Stever himself or from the ticket booth in the Student’s Store.
Plans for the banquet program are nearing completion. Among the unique features of the evening will be the seating of guests in groups according to colleges. The Varsity club and its alumni will also have a special table. It is planned to have each of these sections decorated and to have cheering competition between the various groups. ’ The group which is adjudged the best will be given a prize.
Other out standing part of the program will be speeches by Walter Eckersall, foremost authority on football since the death of Walter Camp Coach Bert Ingwerson of Iowa, and Coach Howard Jones. In addition, the Forum Theater Orchestra, Hal Robert’s Band and the Southern California Glee Club will appear.
Stever and his committee are laying plans for caring for a thousand men at the banquet. The affair is scheduled to break up just before the rally for the game begins, and the entire group will adjourn to this rally.
