Arnold Eddy States That Crowd Will Exceed the 70,000 Mark For Intersectional Classic.
35,000 ALREADY SOLD
Tickets For Seats on South Side of Coliseum Handled by Special Iowa Ticket Committee.
That the crowd which will be packed into the Coliseum for the S. C.-Iowa game on November 21 will be one of the largeset ever seen In the big stadium was indicated yesterday, according to reports from the office of Arnold Eddy, assistant general manager of the A. S. U. S. C. “I look for a crowd of over 70,00 at this game,” naid Eddy. “A crowd of this size will be remarkable in the face of the fact that more than 75,000 people will attend the California-Stanford battle on the same date up North.”
Advance indications on the sale cf seats for this contest are in excess of the advance sale of the Stanford game at the same time before the actual date of the battle. With the exception of the students’ sections, there is practically a sellout of seats from goalposts on each side of the Coliseum.
* * *
MANY IOWANS ATTEND
The size of the crowd which is expected to attend the Trojan-Iowa affair can be explained, according to Eddy, by two main reasons. The first reason is that a very large number of Iowa people are deeply interested in the Middlewest team, and the second is that Iowa has made a remarkable showing this season, having won all of their games and being right in line for the Big Ten Conference championship.	_
Local people have had difficulty in getting seats on the south side of the Coliseum, said Arnold Eddy, Decause they have tried to get seats through the University of Southern California. The south side had already been given over to a committee which has entire charge of those seats. This committee, which is known as the Iowa Ticket Committee and which is composed of representatives of the Iowa Alumni, Big Ten Alumni, and former residents, will direct the sale of seats in the Coliseum to all Iowa and Big Ten Alumni and to all former Iowa citizens who apply for reservations.

35,000 SEATS SOLD
Eddy further stated that about 35,000 teats had already been sold, with November 21 nearly three weeks away. Twelve thousand seats on the southern portion of the bowl have been reserved for Iowa alumni and ex-citizens and for alumni of the Big Ten. A circular telling about the big game has been sent to 25,000 local people who are interested in the Iowa side of the contest, so that these may get their reservations in before every seat in the Coliseum is sold out.

Makes Debut at Tea To Be Held During Homecoming Weekend.
ENGINEERS TO HAVE BANQUET FRIDAY EVENING
Alumni and Undergraduates To Get Together; Plans For New Building Will Be Discussed.
The alumni and undergraduates of the engineering college will meet together for a banquet Friday evening at 6:45, in the Los Angeles Creamery banquet hall, at twelfth and Towne streets.
The alumni of the Southern California College of Engineering have called this meeting in hopes that plans for a new engineering building and the welfare of the college as a whole ceiving. may be discussed. Through Bob Rowley, they have invited all engineering students on the campus to attend the meeting.
The program will consist of short, snappy talks by representatives of the alumni, the students, and the faculty. Everything points to a meeting of interest to all engineers. A charge of one dollar a plate is being made for the dinner. The meeting will start promptly at 6:45 tomorrow night.
Bob Irvine feels that this will be a wonderful opportunity for the undergrads to meet members of the alumni. He also is of the opinion that this meeting will be of much importance to the college of engineering.
All plans for future expansion depend on the co-operation of the alumni.
This emeeting affords a great chance to secure this co-operation, according to Mr. Irvine.
As Trojan women of old took up arms to support the honor of their ancient city, the “Trojan Women" of today, a reorganization of the women’s section of the Alumni Club, have organized in the interests of another Troy—their Alma Mater.
This club, composed of S. C. alumnae and women who have attended the university but are no longer undergraduates, plans to do much the same work among women that the Trojan Club is doing among men. It was felt that by breaking away from the Alumni Club and forming a separate organization a more direct appeal might be made to women graduates and a closer bond of interest stimulated between the university and the alumnae.
The “Trojan Women” will make their debut at a tea to be given Nov. 20, the Friday of Homecoming Week, from four to six in the Women’s Building. Senior women and mothers of both varsity and freshman football men will be entertained as well as alumnae and former women students of the university, at this tea. Mrs. R. B. von KleinSmid and Dean Mary Sinclaire Crawford are to assist in re-

“The Enchanted Cotta-ge” is the play from which the movie of the same name, in which Richard Barthelmess starred. As played by the movie favorite, the production is remembered ! by many for its rare beauty and charm j with the added emotional appeal.

S. C. BROADCASTS OVER KFI RADIO
National Collegiate Players To Produce Farcial Skit as Novel Feature of Trojan Program.
Tonight between seven and eight over K. F. I. the University of Southern California will broadcast an hour program consisting of a one-act play and a number of musical selections. Special permission to present “Poor Old Jim” was given by the author, William De Mille, to the National Collegiate Players Fraternity under whose auspices the program is presented.
“Poor Old Jim” is a farcial skit broadcasted by Ellsworth Ross, Selvyn Levinson, and Clare Kaufer. It will be remembered that this little play was given in chapel two years ago by i this cast with a tremendous success. ;
This is a new activity for Collegiate Players and although it is far away from the footlights, it will have the whole United States for an audience. K. F. I. programs broadcasted in Los Angeles are regularly received in New York and as far west as Japan.
The program is presented under the supervision of Harold Williamson, who has been recognized for his radio programs in the past. Bill Hogue, who has arranged the musical numbers, promises that they will be up to the regular radio profession in every respect.
This is the first time that K. F I. has permitted any broadcasting of plays, wrhich is a direct compliment in itself to National Collegiate players.
ticularly interested in this work are invited to join with the accounting majors at this opening banquet.
Howard Chadsey, working with Don Edwin, chairman of the accounting majors’ group, has completed arrangements whereby those who attend this initial banquet are assured of the best in the matter of food, Paulais’ being widely known for the excellent quality of its dinners, for the reasonable charge of $1.25 a plate.
The committee in charge is now making arrangements to secure for the evening one of the most prominent Los Angeles accountants, who is not only an authority in his particular profession, but is also well-known as an interesting and entertaining speaker.
Reservations for the banquet may now be made by signing up on the list posted on the accounting bulletin board on the wall opposite the com-
FOOTBALL TEAM WILL APPEAR III
MJWff
Glee Club Quartet To Introduce New Selections in Appearance Before Assemblage.
YELL PRACTICE HELD
Charlie Owens’ Band To Furnish Music For Santa Clara-S. C. Rally.
Coach Howard Jones and his victorious varsity football squad will make their first public stage appearance of the year, when they twill be introduced to the members of the student body at the weekly rally to be held Friday morning. Tomorrow’s assembly will be devoted to a rally fbr the victors over the Idaho Vandal grid team, as it was impossible to hold one upon the arrival of the squad from the North.
The Glee Club quartet, who have appeared before many audiences in Southern California this season, will also be on hand to introduce several new* numbers. Charlie Owens will bring his syncopatin’ orchestra on the stage to provide the “pep” for the morning’s affair.
It had been planned to hold a big open rally last Tuesday when the varsity team returned from their only foreign game of the season, but as this would have necessitated an interruption from classes, university authorities deemed it wise to postpone the affair until the Friday assembly hour where the entire student body could participate without having to cut any classes.
Each member of the squad will be introduced individually to the students as will all others who accompanied the team on its Northern invasion. Burdett Henny and his assistants will lead yells for the men and for the college in general.
Another object for having the football team on the stage is to stir up enthusiasm for the coming game with the Santa Clara aggregation. The Broncos have one of the strongest teams in its class in Northern California. and are expected to give the Trojans a stiff tussle. Students from Santa Clara who are journeying to Los Angeles to witness the game, are not afraid of being defeated but are predicting a victory for the fighting No--tre Dame coached-team.	S
