EL RODEO PICTURES
Unless some action is shown by the students regarding individual photos in the year book, some other means of adornment will be used in the 1928 El Rodeo. The schedule of dates as announced in yesterday’s Trojan for the various alphabetical divisions will be rigidly enforced. This applies to all students who expect to have their picture appear in the book.

No Individual Pictures Are Taken For The El Rodeo
YEAR BOOK EDITOR HAS NO SUPPORT
Students Fail To Respond To Opening of Studio on Campus Site.
By DAVE BRYANT
Contrary to general opinion which must be prevalent on the
campus, it requires more than three months to prepare a 500-page publication which is to be issued by the twentieth of May. There has been a decided lack of co-operation on the part of the students in doing their part to publish the 1928 El Rodeo.
For one week the Witzel Studios
have maintained a temporary studio on the campus for taking the individual photos for this year's publication and to date there has not been a single student appear for his or her sitting. This situation must be remedied if there are to be pictures in the El Rodeo.
The 6tudent body at large does not appreciate the amount of work that this task involves. The mere taking of these pictures is in reality only a fmall part of the work, and the arranging for the appointments for settings is work which the staff cannot do. In order to avoid last minute rush and the resulting errors which are bound to occur when this detail of the work is left to the last, all pictures of campus individuals must be taken by the Christmas recess. After the pictures are taken it requires months of time to sort them into their respective groups with the proper names corresponding and to mount them into panels ready for the engraving pro-

W. HENLEY IS GUEST OF BEAR PREXY
Student President Feted in North; Addresses All Bear Scholars.
JOINT V. DINNER FOR CHEST DRIVE WILL BE AT HITT
Y. W. C. A. Council Group Launch Community Chest Membership Drive.
If the students will only recall the difficulty encountered last year in getting the book on the campus before the close of the school year ,it may make them more attenttive to their own personal responsibility. This personal responsibility is something which must be done by the student himself, as it is impossible for a staff to arrange for the appointments for four thousand students.
This year, because of the pressure brought to bear by the students themselves, the El Rodeo will carry individual pictures of organization groups rather than the group pictures that were used last year. This fact alone almost doubles the work of the photoplay division.
The announcement which was made in yesterday’s Trojan regarding the time limit which was set for the different alphabetical divisions will be enforced rigidly, and those students whose names fall in the group A to E, inclusive, wil! only have the remainder of. this week in which to have their pictures taken or an apointment made with the photographer’s assistant.
TROJAN GRIDDERS TO SEE “IRISH"
Coach Howard Jones ani) the entire Trojan football squad will be quests of honor at the Figueroa theatre tonight. Special films of the recent Notre Dame-Navy game, which the Fightin’ Irish collected handily, have been imported, and will be shown to the footballers. The management has promised to turn over the films to Captain Morley Drury to enable the Trojan leader to “scout” the enemy without the formality of Seing present at the games.
For the first time this year, the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. council groups will stage a joint dinner tomorrow night in the “Y” hut. The accosion is the launching of the active campaign for membership in the Community Chest drive in the Y. M. and Y. W. groups proper and the speaker on the night will be a member of the downtown Community Chest committee.
While the two groups get together several times during the progress of each school year, the Wednesday night meeting is not on the regular joint program and an exceptionally large crowd is expected to be present, in the opinion of Glen Turner, local “Y” secretary. Both groups have nominated members to help with the preparation and service of the meal which is expected to surpass all previous Wednesday night dinners in elegance.
The speaker from the headquarters of the Chest drive will define and explain the plans by which the University driv£ in particular will be governed and explain the Community Chest program as a whole.
The Phi Mu Alpha duo will furnish music during the meal. Regular Y. M. and Y. W. business meetings will be held in conjunction with the other parts of the program.
The Y. M. C. A. committee states that the attendance at Y. M. dinners so far this year has exceeded all expectations and because, with the two groups, the “Y” hut will be filled almost the capacity.
William Henley, as the representative of Southern California at California last week, was royally entertained by Wright Morton student body president of the northern institution, according to the enthusiastic description which he gave yesterday when he returned to the campus.
He was the guest of the president in the press box at the California-Ol-lympic game Saturday.
“This idea that the California game we face r.ext week is going to be easy is all wrong,” Henley states as his impression of the game.
A delegation of students met him at the Berkeley station upon his arrival; he was the personal guest of the California president; he was entertained by the California chapter of his fraternity.
Wright Morton, when he presented Henley to the student body in assembly, gave an introductory speech which surpassed anything which Henley has ever experienced in all of his appearances.
Friday evening he was given the honor place on the program for the assembly of the students. The mass meeting was so large it was held in the men’s gym, no hall having the sufficient seating capacity.
When Henley appeared on the platform three yell leaders leaped to their feet and led the massed students in six big “Rah!” as his greeting. As he turned to acknowledge the president before beginning his address, the California Men’s Glee Club sang the Trojan song, “Fight On” as a tribute to him.
SQUIRES WILL LUNCH TODAY
Meeting at the Twin Cedars Inn, 405G Figueroa Street for lunch at noon today, the Trojan Squires will gravely deliberate over their plans for the future, as well as over a demitasse. perhaps. Sam Newman, the president of the organization, requests that all Squires.present themselves promptly at the appointed place.
Important business to be discussed at the meeting will include plans for the Community Chest Drive, arrangements to sell tickets for the Kni.s:ht-Amazon dance, which is after the California game and the continued enforcement of freshmen traditions. They will also arrange to aid Paul Elmquist Trojan yell king, in the execution of rooting stunts.
CHEST MANAGER WILL SPEAK AT ASSEMBLY TODAY
TROJANS OPEN A BOOKING OFFICE
Gene Johnston ,Harold Chasnoff, and Jean McCluskey, all well known on the S. C. campus, have opened an orchestra booking office down town in the New Orpheum building.
Gene Johnston has written the music for the past four years for the annual musical Extravaganza. One hit from the showr two years ago, “Kiss Me and Then Say Goodnight’*, was a national success. Harold Chasnoff. who aided Johnston last year in arranging music for the Extravaganza is a member of the College of Music and an eminent violinist. The third member of the firm, Dean McCluskey, who is also an ex-Trojan, is conducting one of the most popular collegiate orchestras in the country, The Oregon Aggravators, who have played during the last years at the Rendezvous in Balboa.
Dr. Thorton, Prominent Social
Worker, Will Describe Plans of the Organization.
Walter L. Thornton, popular college professor and lecturer, is scheduled to speak at 10 o’clock this morning at an all-University assembly in Bovard auditorium, according to Bruce Baxter, chairman of the assembly committee.
Dr. Thornton is prominent as a student of social and civic problems He has been an instructor at the University of Texas, head of the department of sociology at Texas Christian College, and head of the depart ment of economics at Occidental College. He is now a lecturer at the University College of the University of Southern California. As a lecturer, Dr. Thornton possesses an enviable reputation. He has spoken in all parts of the country, and is especially well-known in Southern California. In 1920, he was a lecturer on social problems on the Redpath Lyceum and Chautauqua circuit.
It is expected that President von KieinSmid will preside at the assembly and introduce the speaker.
As managing secretary of the Los Angeles Community Chest, Dr. Thornton has come into intimate contact with the humanitarian work of Ibis great organization. The speakers’ bureau of the Chest, headed by Miss Helen Jackson is supplying Dr. Thornton for the assembly this morning. As a part of the talk which he is planning to give, it is expected that Dr. Thornton will briefly describe the work of the Chest in raising and allotting funds for the support of the 150 social welfare agencies through which oLs Angeles takes care of its sick and needy.
SCRIPTS FOR S.C. COMEDY ARE SOUGHT
Extravaganza Theme Will Be Chosen From Student Manuscripts.
Choice for the 1927 Extravaganza will be made from manuscripts submitted by S. C. students, according to the announcement of the university play director.
The play must be a musical comedy, similar to that produced last year when the “1927 Rumpus” was put on in Bovard Auditorium. No programs of a variety nature are desired nor will they be considered, according to the director.
The scenarios must be handed in not later than the last day before Christmas vacation, Tuesday, Dec. 13. None submitted after this date will be acceptable.
Complete scripts., must be., in Viot later than Jan. 15, to be con-eidersd. This date is set early in this month in order to allow for the choice to be made by the judges and to leave adequate time for rehearsals.
This is carrying out the plan of last year in making the Extravaganza an all-campus production from the standpoint of the play itself, the characters and dialogue as well as participation in the cast. “The Rumpus of 1927”, the _ Extravaganza of last year, written and produced under this plan, ran for three successful nights on the campus, eclipsing anything else produced in the dramatic line on the campus.
Judges for the selection of scripts will be announced later nearer the final date of the contest Definite rules will be outlined during this week and they must be followed absolutely if the manuscript is to be considered.

Applications for seats outside of the rooting section can no longer be received, as only those tickets left on public sale can still be purchased.

75000 FANS WILL WATCH BEAR GAME
Tickets Go Fast as Game Time Nears; 16,000 California Students Expected.
By RAY ZEMAN
That tickets for the S. C.-California game will be completely sold out before tomorrow morning is the prediction made after yesterday’s sale. Buyers stormed the Student Store all day yesterday, and the B. H. Dyas downtown ticket office had to send in a call for extra help. As a result, no one knows exactly how many tickets are left for the unwary few who put off buying until the last week.
No $3.50 tickets are available, nor have they been for a week, acording to Arnold Eddy, ticket manager. Four thousand eight hundred ducats at $1.50 each were on sale yesterday, both at the downtown office and at the local student office in the Associated Students' Store.	,
A large numoer of these $1.50 pasteboards remain on sale today, but prospective purchasers are urged to go over to the store to get them, or face the probability of not getting any tickets at all. The $1.50 tickets are for reserved seats near tunnels 30-31-32-33, in the east end of the Coliseum. Whether any rooters’ tickets are left this morning is probelmatical. Eddy predicted yesterday that 200 would be on sale today, but those selling the ducats at the store predicted a complete sell-out yesterday.
Some 2000 tickets near tunnels 1 and 28 were on sale yesterday at $2.50, but at the rate they were disappearing it is not thought that any are left this morning.
BIG ROOTING SECTION A rooting section that will be 15 per cent larger than the largest previous Trojan rooting section is certain. Three thousand rooters’ tickets have been sld, and Paul Elmquis', head yell king, will open up with a series of sensational surprises with this game’s rooters.
Sixteen thousand California supporters will trek down the highways within a few days. Eddy states that the block of 16,000 ducats sent north has been completely sold out for several days.
To be exact, just 74.260 excited fans will be in reserved seats when the kick-off comes next Saturday, also 788 notables in box seats, plus a goodly number in the press box. This makes a total of more than 75.000 who will pask the Coliseum to see the game of games.
Those students who got their reservations for tickets in before the closing date, October 5th, have been mailed cards which tney will present for their $3.50 tickets. All these cards should reach their owners simetime today or tomorrow at the latest. They may be presented in the Associated Students’ Store for the precious tickets.
No scalping has been heard of yet, and It is believed that the system
used this year in distributing the tickets will greatly minimize any scalping ,of not completely eliminate it.
