STUDENTS and faculty members of the Southern California Law School will stage their annua] get-together Friday at the Alexandria Hotel. It is a traditional event at the lawyer’s school to stage this gathering and one that brings the students and faculty members into a closer bond of friendship. The lawyers’ annual banquet and dance is more of a good old-fashioned family gathering with all the embryo-attor-neys bonded together. • • • Other schools and colleges may do well to profit by this party of the lawyers and stage thtir own family gatherings. It is indeed a pleasure to meet a group of men and women who are one and all interested in the same vocation. If the other groups on the campus could meet in the same manner occasionally they will be able to oo-operate to a far greater extent after they graduate. • • • The buyers' party will be featured by a member of the California Supreme Court. Chet Dolley, president of the Law School and the executive committee composed of Harold IVinsctt. Karl Hendrick and Southern California Trojan "SCOW” WORKING FINE NEW YORK, April 5.—Fay Thomas, former football star of the University of Southern Caifor-nia has proven to be the “rookie sensation of the Giants’ training camp. Thomas recently held the Senators scoreless for two innings while they scored seven runs on the veteran Barnes. VOL. XVII.

It can I Southern California. i I be safe to say that at least 98 per cent knew nothing of what the S. C. debators were doing. For the benefit of those who pay little attention to the speakers, we will say that the team oomposed of Leland Tallman, William Berger, Adna Leonard and Arthur Syvertson and led by Coach Alan Nichols and Manager Sam Gates, now holds eleven straight victories and no defeats. During the past week the debators have established their reputations as excellent speakers at New Mexico, College of Puget Sound, University of Washington, and the University of Oregon. This week the debators will further establish themselves when they debate the University of Idaho at Moscow, Thursday, and Gonraga College in Spokane, Washington, Saturday. An interesting feature of the debate schedule of last week was the j roadcasting of the Trojan-Vniver-city of Oregon debate over the adio from the KGIIT station in Portland. Oregon. In this manner housands of people <vcre reached hus spreading the forensic ability )f the Trojan debators that were broadcasting. + + + HILE we are on the subject of broadcastings and radios, it ould be well to say a few words of he weekly Trojan raidio Drogram be-ng broadcasted over KFi. The writer | Goldfish nad the opportunity to hear the pro--am presented last week which was n excellent one, with but one excep-ion. It has been complained by many isteners in that too much of the time devoted to piano solos and to the elections of a prominent local trio. • • • The ones making the .criticism state that the piano solos, etc., are very good but that they seem to take up the entire time of the program. They suggest more broadcasting of student singers, the Glee Club. band, and campus orchestras. “Although the content of the papers was good, yet some were marred by erasures and typographical errors, such as are produced by hasty preparation,” stated Professor Bissel. “The eight essays showed a wide range of subjects, being literary, educational and personal. Als«, he stated, they showed a great degree of originality.” This year’s Phi Beta Kappa contest I was a decided improvement over that | of last year, he declared, when only | two manuscripts w®re submitted at the University of Southern California. At the Southern Branch there was a similar improvement. S.C. ARTISTS TO DO PORTRAITS Post and Aguilar Will Caricature Campus Notables At Friday's Rally. Campus notables, politicians, social climbers, and publicity hounds wrill be given an opportunity to “see themselves as others see them” in rally Friday when Tom Aguilar and John Post entertain with charcoal sketches. Twenty people of campus renown will be drawn in profile and full face by' the versatile student artists who have gained wide recognition through their Wampus illustrating. While no special venom will be directed at the aspiring politicians so evident in this pre-election period, it was the statement of the rally committee in charge of the chapel entertainment that no chances for humor will be overlooked by the charcoal artists. Both Post and Aguilar have exhibited talent which will be given full play on Friday when the unique feature is presented in connection with an exchange program with Southern Branch. One half of the rally hour will be given over to the program of the visiting collegians, the nature of which was not known yesterday afternoon. LAW SCHOOL STUDENTS TO HEAR JUDGE Programs of Dance To Reproduce Superior Court Forms; Tickets Today. Three hundred couples have made reservations for the annual School of Law banquet and dance which is to be held Friday at 7:00 p. m„ at the Alexandria Hotel. The Honorable Ira H. Thompson, one of Los Angeles County’s Superior Court judges, will speak at the banquet. Tickets are available today for those who desire to take friends to the affair. All students and members of the faculty of the School of Law will be guests of that school. Pre-legal students of the College of Liberal Arts will be afforded an opportunity to purchase tickets and get acquainted with the famous law school spirit if there are any reservations remaining after the law students and their guests have been taken care of. Programs for the dance will be drawn up in the form of a legal action and will be folded in the same manner as practicing attorneys must submit trial briefs to the Superior Courts of Los Angeles County. Decorations will be in the School of Law’s colors of purple and gold. Ex-Secretary of War John W. Weeks is expected to be present at the banquet. President R.

Editors Wanted For Rodeo Positions According To Murray That there are still a few editorial positions open on the El Rodeo staff was the announcement made today by Ed Murray, the editor-in-chief.
