A special reduced subscription rate of $2.50 per year has just been approved by the faculty, according to Glenn Whitney, business manager. Every student is expected to Subscribe to the new journal, inasmuch as it is a tradition for students in schools where law reviews are published to back the reviews one hundred per cent. Many judges and attorneys are also sending in subscriptions.
Law reviews published by leading American law schools have gained enviable reputations for their unbiased of analyses of cases. Judges have come to rely upon them, and to cite them in their decisions. Attorneys have based many of their briefs upon the studies made by students and published in the reviews.
The new law review is to be the only one in Southern California, although another is published in this state by • U. C. at Berkeley. The S. C. Law School is the only “Class A” law ; school in Southern California, and one i of three in the state.
Subsequent numbers of the review are scheduled to appear in January, March, May and July of next year.

The rally committee wishes to state that as it was announced in the Trojan every effort was made to find the Battle Flag before the Stanford game, but all attempts were in vain. Suffice it to say, that every student will welcome the flag again when It hangs from the tower after ts mysterious disappearance.
Trumpeters will sound “Colors” from Bovard tower for the raising of the Trojan War Flag at the beginning of the regular chapel period, 10:00 o’clock. Students will mass on the main campus to participate in the ceremony.
Classes scheduled for T0:25 o’clock will'meet as usual.

That the Community Chest will be permitted to conduct a campus appeal for funds from Monday to Wednesday of next week, was the announcement made yesterday by President R. B. von KieinSmid.
It was pointed out at the time the announcement was made public that this action on the part of the administration is totally at variance with the general University ruling which prohibits all campus drives for money by off-campus organizations. A spokesman for President von KieinSmid gave as the chief reason fcr making this exception to the rule, the fact that the success of the Community Chest appeal this year is of such vital importance to the welfare of Los Angeles ihat it was thought desirable to encourage the students to contribute. That the Community Chest collects funds for the support of a large num-of Commerce and ljer °f welfare organizations, thus eliminating a multiplicity of drives, was give the pep talk on the program.

I Speakers of national prominence will address the meeting, which will be attended by public officials and I civic leaders from throughout the na-i tion.

Professor R. French Will Attend Annual Convention
Levenson To Be Husband; DeLapp Will Play as the Wife.
Prof. Roy L. French, as president of the Sigma Delta Chi, national professional journalism fraternity, will attend a convention of that organization at Lawrence, Kansas on Nov. 14, 15 and 16.
At these conventions, which are held annually to further the interests of the fraternity, each of the forty chapters, located at institutions where there are departments or schools of journalism, are represented.
In an interview yesterday, Professor French stated that nationally prominent newspaper men, some of whom are members of the fraternity, will be the speakers at the convention.
For the rally before the California game, the rally committee has arranged another of its clever skits to be presented during the demonstration. Much trouble and time has been expended to make this play as novel as the last. Details are as follows:
“WHAT PRICE LOYALTY”
(A modern super-drama in one suf-fercating act)
Scene—Anything but obscene. Time—Plenty.
Date—Seedless.
Place—“Why bring that up?”
Cast of Characters (Good and Otherwise)
Eli Levenson—Douglas Trojan Terrel DeLapp—Helen Troy. Charles Wright—Harry Bear.
Ajax Trojan—Played by himself.
The above skit will be presented in preparation for the Big Game. Eli Levenson, as Douglas Trojan, will be a husband and quarterback of the team. DeLapp takes the part of the loyal wife. Charles Wright comes on as a stranger from Berkeley, while “Tiny” Sandholt will take a dramatic part not yet named.
The loyalty of the quarterback's wife is the central theme of the skit, in which the characters run a gamut of emotion seldom equaled by even professional sob sisters, according to those on the inside. The audience is asked to be equipped with boots and umbrellas in preparation for the tear-shedding spasms.
The plot is replete with climaxes and will undoubtedly fold the spectators under their seats from the heart-rending emotions expressed on the stage, remarked those close to the production.
Morris Chain is director of ihe skit which he also has written. This is his second rally skit. Fred Milford did a great deal of work on the play as assistant director.
The Rally Committee describes the skit as dynamite and hopes the actors will be available for future skits.
SENIORS MUST PAY THEIR CLASS DUES
“Payment of senior dues was a flop yesterday” was the statement of Kenneth Faulkner, when asked for a report on the matter. “If the senior class does not pay their dues, the administration will lay an assessment on the class and no member will graduate until that assessment is paid,” he stated.
It looks, therefore, as though the seniors, if they show any spirit, will pay their class dues instead of a university assessment.
The class is $500 dollars in debt, and attempts are being made now to erase the deficit on the books of the administration which the class has incurred. The dues are a dollar for each semester and are payable to the officer in charge of window I, in the Arcade of the Administration building.
RIFLE TEAM WILL MEET ON BOVARD
A meeting for all fellows interested in making the rifle team has been called for 4 o’clock this afternoon. TTie meeting will be held on Bovard Field.
This team offers excellent opportunities for aspirants for minor sports as letters will be given to all men who qualify in two-thirds of the meets.
Captain Hathaway urges that all men who are interested in this sport turn out for shooting practice as former experience is not necessary and no one has a place cinched on the team.

B. von KieinSmid. It was pointed out at the time the announcement was made public that this action on the part of the administration is totally at variance with the general University ruling which prohibits all campus drives for money by off-campus organizations. A spokesman for President von KieinSmid gave as the chief reason fcr making this exception to the rule, the fact that the success of the Community Chest appeal this year is of such vital importance to the welfare of Los Angeles ihat it was thought desirable to encourage the students to contribute.

French Will Attend Annual Convention Levenson To Be Husband; DeLapp Will Play as the Wife. Prof. Roy L. French, as president of the Sigma Delta Chi, national professional journalism fraternity, will attend a convention of that organization at Lawrence, Kansas on Nov. 14, 15 and 16. At these conventions, which are held annually to further the interests of the fraternity, each of the forty chapters, located at institutions where there are departments or schools of journalism, are represented. In an interview yesterday, Professor French stated that nationally prominent newspaper men, some of whom are members of the fraternity, will be the speakers at the convention. For the rally before the California game, the rally committee has arranged another of its clever skits to be presented during the demonstration. Much trouble and time has been expended to make this play as novel as the last. Details are as follows: “WHAT PRICE LOYALTY” (A modern super-drama in one suf-fercating act) Scene—Anything but obscene. Time—Plenty. Date—Seedless. Place—“Why bring that up?” Cast of Characters (Good and Otherwise) Eli Levenson—Douglas Trojan Terrel DeLapp—Helen Troy. Charles Wright—Harry Bear. Ajax Trojan—Played by himself. The above skit will be presented in preparation for the Big Game. Eli Levenson, as Douglas Trojan, will be a husband and quarterback of the team. DeLapp takes the part of the loyal wife. Charles Wright comes on as a stranger from Berkeley, while “Tiny” Sandholt will take a dramatic part not yet named. The loyalty of the quarterback's wife is the central theme of the skit, in which the characters run a gamut of emotion seldom equaled by even professional sob sisters, according to those on the inside. The audience is asked to be equipped with boots and umbrellas in preparation for the tear-shedding spasms. The plot is replete with climaxes and will undoubtedly fold the spectators under their seats from the heart-rending emotions expressed on the stage, remarked those close to the production. Morris Chain is director of ihe skit which he also has written. This is his second rally skit. Fred Milford did a great deal of work on the play as assistant director. The Rally Committee describes the skit as dynamite and hopes the actors will be available for future skits. SENIORS MUST PAY THEIR CLASS DUES “Payment of senior dues was a flop yesterday” was the statement of Kenneth Faulkner, when asked for a report on the matter. “If the senior class does not pay their dues, the administration will lay an assessment on the class and no member will graduate until that assessment is paid,” he stated. It looks, therefore, as though the seniors, if they show any spirit, will pay their class dues instead of a university assessment. The class is $500 dollars in debt, and attempts are being made now to erase the deficit on the books of the administration which the class has incurred. The dues are a dollar for each semester and are payable to the officer in charge of window I, in the Arcade of the Administration building. RIFLE TEAM WILL MEET ON BOVARD A meeting for all fellows interested in making the rifle team has been called for 4 o’clock this afternoon. TTie meeting will be held on Bovard Field. This team offers excellent opportunities for aspirants for minor sports as letters will be given to all men who qualify in two-thirds of the meets. Captain Hathaway urges that all men who are interested in this sport turn out for shooting practice as former experience is not necessary and no one has a place cinched on the team. |
