Deadline for El Rodeo Work Set For a Week From Today, States Bryant.
Following a definite schedule for photography work, Dave Bryant, El Rodeo editor, has announced for the last time the final date for having senior pictures taken.
Only one week remains for the seniors to have their individual pictures taken, and by the end of two weeks all students having pictures in the El Rodeo must have reported at the campus location of the Witzel studio for their pictures. This is absolutely the deadline for Liberal Arts individual pictures.
Beginning next Tuesday and Thursday evenings, the Dental organizations will be photographed in tuxedos. After finals the Dent seniors will have individual pictures taken. It has been suggested that organizations bring more than one tux shirt and collar for the group because unnecessary delay is caused when there are so man changes made.

ESTABLISH CO-ED OFFICE IN NEW UNION BUILDING
With the giving over of one room in the new Student Union building, to be used as the office of four women’s organizations on the campus, women's activities have gained a real foothold at the University of Southern California, according to Betty Farmer, President of W. S. G. A. The Women’s Self Gomvernment Association, the Women’s Athletic Association, the Penhellenic Council and the Amazons will have their desks located on the second floor of the building, the second door from the south end .with windows facing on University avenue.
To date the only desk which has been moved into the new quarters is that of the W. S. G. A., which was removed from the Y. W. C. A. last week. Next semester the four organizations are planning to have the room open to all women students every hour during the day with officers to welcome all women coming to the office and to take general charge. The four desks which will be placed in the office will be used by Betty Farmer, president of the W
S. G. A., Mary Dunstan, president of the W. A. A., Josephine Campbell, president of the Panhellenic Council, and Betty von KieinSmid, president of the Amazons. There will be a meeting of these four women in th« office next Tuesday at noon to discuss furnishing the room.
According to present plans, the mail box now located in the Y W. C. A. will be removed as the Y. W. will occupy rooms on the fourth floor of the new building. A new mail box ^ ill be placed in the women’s organizations room, and all women will be expected to go there in order to receive their mail. At the beginning of next semester, sorority bids of which Panhellenic has charge, will be placed in this mail box.
A large bulletin board is being secured on which will be posted notices of all women’s activities. A library loan system will be established and books and magazines of special interest to women may be taken out. The money collected from fines imposed on overdue books will be added to the loan fund.
BY WALTER PECK
Plans are on foot for the re-estab-lishment of the College of Medicine on the Trojan campus, it was learned yesterday from Dr. Edward M. Pal-lete ’98, president of the S. C. Medical Alumni association.
Two hundred alumni of the College of Medicine, which was discontinued in 1921, have organized with the object of securing the re-establishment of the medical college as a part of the university, according to Dr. Pallete. The county medical association of which 150 prominent physicians are members, is also behind the project, and, in December, passed a resolution favoring the plan.
HOPE FOR COLLEGE
With the opening of the first unit of $10,000,000 endowment campaign next week, it is hoped by the alumni that a new College of Medicine will be erected within the next two years and open in time for the celebration of the semi-centennial anniversary in 1930. Conferences have been held between President R. B. von Kien-Smid and the officers of the medical alumni association, looking toward the successful consummation of the medical association’s plans. An educational committee of 25 members appointed by Dr. Pallete has been co-operating with the auxiliary committee of the county medical association in regard to the founding of a college of medicine at Southern Cali fornia to serve Los Angeles and th. southland.
From Dr. von KieinSmid, it was learned that the Board of Trustees had recently reaffirmed the official statement which it gave out at the time the College of Medicine was discontinued, to the effect that the col lege would not be re-established until sufficient funds had been raised to make possible the establishment of a class A institution. The medical alumni hope that the funds will be provided out of those raised in the $10,000,000 endwoment campaign.
The College of Medicne was the second department founded as a part of the university. It was established in 1884 with W. P- W’idney, A.M.. M.D., as dean, and after an existence marked by the high standard of its instruction, was discontinued in 1921 due to the fact that general standards had risen, making it no longer possible to maintain a class A institution on the funds available.

Strong Northern Team Ready To Defend Four Years’ Championship; Game Will Be Played Tomorrow Night At 8 P. M.
By FRED CHASE
The Pacific Coast Conference basketball season opens here tomorrow night with Southern California facing California in a desperate encounter in the Olympic Auditorium at 8 o’clock. California is determined to add 1928 to its four successive conference championship Jears, and to squelch all this talk of a championship for S. C.; while the most promising Trojan squad to take the floor in years anxiously awaits the chance to prove its mettle, and to break California's winning streak. If Southern California wins, it will be the first basketball banquet on Bear meat in four years.

Journalism Group To Meet Sunday Evening; Will Elect Officers.
The By-liners club, campus journalistic organization which is petitioning Sigma Delta Chi, national professional journalism fraternity, will hold its final meeting of the semester Sunday night at the Twin Cedars Inn, Scott Creager, president of the organization, announced yesterday. The dinner meeting is scheduled for 6 o’clock.
Election of officers for next semester will be the prime business of tbe meeting, but Creager intends to introduce a number of important proposals for activity during the coming months. The Bv-Liners already have worked out a style sheet for the Daily Trojan, and have practically completed, with the aid of Prof. R L.. French, a system of promotion for work and ability, to be used in se lecting the editors, desk-workers and reporters of the Trojan staff.

in social, economic, and international relations. During the past three years he has spoken in about 200 colleges in all parts of the country. Previous to this, Mr. Page traveled with Sherwood Eddy in his evangelistic work with students around the world. For three years he was minister of the. Ridgewood Church of Christ in New York. During the last ten years, he has traveled more than 200,000 miles, crossing the ocean fourteen times and visiting thirty

their fellow students in the S. C. School of Architecture to draft a suitable “parking bench.” Many de-; signs were drawn up and submitted j to Merrel Gage, instructor in model-^ ing at the Trojan institution, and A. i C. Weatherhead, Dean of the Archi | tectural school.
Leland Thorne, a student in the sculpture class, has the honor of having his design chosen as the most appropriate and striking. The winning design was promptly modeled in clay, and the Trojan Knights invited to inspect it before it was cast into final form in art stone.
Facing each other, heads of a Trojan warrior and Minerva, the Godde3S of Wisdom, adorn the upper-front of the seat, surmounted by a Latin Legend “Palman Qui Mervit Ferat” which roughly translated means “Give Credit Where Credit is Due.” The Trojan Warhorse was duplicated for suitable arm-rests of the bench, while collegiate crests appear on the lower-front of the unique seat.
This bit of outdoor furniture will be placed in a setting of shrubbery on the Old College campus of the university,
At the game tomorrow night Coach Leo Calland will pilot a squad into P.C.C. action for the first time, although when he was coaching at Whittier last year his men played California in a practice game, emerging at the short end of a close score, 23-21. Last year a Calland-coached team from Whittier tied the highly-touted U.
C. L. A. squad for the Southern ship. Leo teaches the same kind of game that Price does, fundamentals, with short pases and pivoting. Both the mentors have excellent material to work with, although Price has been handicapped some by the lateness of the football season, and dependence on football men for his squad; also the loss of Fletcher, guard. Fletcher, a regular in 1925, was sick last year, but played on the first string this year, until he dropped out of school. Fletcher was counted on to hold down the guard positions with Dougery.
Troy enters the conference moil with eight practice victories to its credit out of nine games. L.A.A.C. supplied the only defeat in the second Trojan game with that club. In nine games the Trojan squad has piled up 372 points against 228. In each of the first seven games they came out from behind to win, demonstrating a fine spirit, which is attributed to Calland. The squad was the first to defeat the strong L.A.A.C. hoopsters, who previously had beaten both Stanford and U. C. L. A.

which is the amount that three-sevenths of $100 wuold be equal. No second prize was offered by the Wampus staff but the rating of the five highest as compiled to date is: Alpha Gamma Delta, 885; Pi Beta Phi 41; Alpha Delta Pi, 398; Delta Gamma, 395 and Lelta Delta Delta 361.
W’hile the co-eds have been selling the WTampus, there has been a de-
cided increase in the number of copies sold so much so that at the present time one thousand more copies are being printed than at th | time last year. The first issue this year had a one-third increase over any number sold before. When the men sold the magazine the results were so small that the business staff do not want to go back to that idea. For this reason they have asked students to try and think of a good selling plan. According to Paul Slater. Business Manager, the best plan will be one that will reach all students and make this selling a matter of student support. Any plans are to be turned in to the Wampus office in the northwest corner, second floor, of the Student Union building or to MY Huse’s office in the Arcade of th<> Administration building.
