MISS BROWN TO GO WITH SCHOOL SHIP
Other S. C. Faculty Members of Last Year’s College Return.
Another member of the faculty of the University of Southern California has been selected to join the faculty of the Floating College. Miss Charlotte Brown, head librarian for a number of years at S. C. has been appointed to take charge of the library for the second cruise of the college on the water. The cruise starts on September 20, and w7ill return to the United States on May 4, 1928.
The first annual trip of the floating institution returned a short'while ago, and with the return there came three members of the faculty of Southern California. Miss Edith Weir, Miss Edith Johnson and Mr. Lynn Clerk were the three Trojans who taught and saw the world at the same time. While on the recent travel tour, the floating college visited twenty-eight countries and thirty-seven ports. The college was co-educational on its first cruise, but this year the men will sail at different times than the women. The men’s college sets sail in September, and it is with this group that Miss Brown will work and travel. The women will have a floating college this year also, but do not sail until in February.
The college afloat includes 275 selected men of seventeen years of age, or over. Dr. John Carleton Jones, Ph.D., LL.D., and President Emeritus of the University of Missouri is to act as Dean of the floating schoo^this year. The ship will first dock in Havana and from there will ply its way through the Panama Canal and up the Pacific Coast to San Francisco. The schedule followed by the ship calls for four weeks’ stay in China and Japan, if conditions permit. A week’s stay in India, and several months in the European countries, will also be included in the trip.
Each section of the country has a college representative and for this district, William Henley has been appointed. Henley is working for a scholarship which would give him a trip on the Floating College a year from this fall, if he meets the requirements of the scholarship. Recently Bill Henley was elected president of the S .C. student body for the coming year. He is a senior in Liberal Arts and is taking a pre-legal course.
According to Miss Brown, the library this year will be on the fore deck and not down on the lower deck, as it was on the last cruise. The ship on which the college will make its home for the cruise, is the S. S. Ryndam cf the Holland-American Line.

It is a real pleasure these days to hear the hum of men busy at work constructing the new Student Union and the Men’s Dorm. These twTo new buildings are units of the building program now being carried on by the Trojan institution. In the past four years the present administration building, Bovard, the law structure, pharmacy building, and the music and architecture buildings have all been built.
The two buildings now under construction are needed additions to the campus. .The Students Union will house the Associated Students Store; alumni offices; student publications; student body and athletic offices; a reception, banquet and dining room; private reception rooms for men and women, and other features of interest. The structure will resemble the distinct type of architecture found on the campus of S. C. and will cost approximately $250,000. Four floors and a basement w’ill provide ample room for the various activities carried on by the student body. The^build-ing, wThen completed^ will tower as high as the administration building and will be 120 feet by 110 feet.

Last week the Alumni offices were moved to the campus. The value of an efficient alumni secretary and his abte staff of assistants cannot be over-estimated. Practically every institution of note can attribute a great share of success to the Alumni Association, because it is the wTork of such a group, to a large extent, that brings about new and needed improvements along all lines of university endeavor.
A large number of educational institutions point to the success in life of graduates who go to form the Alumni Association. Southern California has been greatly aided in a most beneficial way by the Trojan Alumni. At this time there are various Trojan clubs throughout the nation who are working for the interests of S. C. So with the coming of the Alumni offices to the campus under the direction of Frank Hadlock there comes a welcome from the student body, and administration.

Justin Miller, a California home product, is now Dean of the Law School. Miller takes over the place left vacant by the well-loved Frank M. Porter, who for twenty-three years has shouldered the duties of Law Dean at Southern California. The University would lose one of its great pioneers if Frank Porter severed all connections with Troy. His services have been numerous and in the interest of advancing the grand profession of which he is a leader, and for the development of a Lawr School at S. C. that would rank on the par with any in the nation. He is to act as President Emeritus and will spend much of his (Continued on Page Three)

WEST TEXAS EDITOR ATES NOVEL S METHOD
Publishes Real Truth Because Some People Call Him aLiar.
A West Texas editor, so runs the story in the Stillwater (Minn.) Gazette, wearied of 'being called a liar because occasionally a typographical or other error apeared in his publication of commonplace news items.
In wrath, he announced:
A lot of people in this town fall out with the editor and brand him a liar when the ordinary m|ptakes or life show up in the paper. You have a little charity and fellow feeling for evefry man in town but your editor. You im you want facts and d—d ifH don’t get them to you. Read the next issue of this sheet and you will see facts with the. bark off.
I admit that I have been a liar, an editorial liar ever since I have been editing this sheet, but I have never printed a' lie in the columns except to keep somebody’s feelings from being hurt. I am not afraid of any of you and I’ll be dad-blamed if I don’t print the truth from now on or until some of you get out of habit of calling me a liar every time I make some unavoidable typographical errors. Now watch my smoke!	,
Here are some of the paragraphs out of the next issue:
