PRESS CLUB ASSESSMENT
The active members of the Press club are urged to pay the assessment that was levied, by vote of the club, to the treasurer, Karmi Wyckoff. The necessity of the prompt payment of this assessment cannot be over-stressed, said the treasurer. The importance of getting the money to her is the only reason that the announcement rated this ear at the top of the page and in ten point type. Hear ye, hear ye, or else the poor pledges don't eat and the treasury suffers.

DISPENSARY WILL OPEN NEW HOME
Lockhart Announces Improvements in Fountain In Student Unoin.
The Associated Students fountain, with Jay Lockhart assuming the role of manager, will bloom again today in a new environment, that of the Student Union. The fountain opens for service after an absence from the campus of about ten months, with new departments, better and more efficient service, better quarters, and a clcan slate.
The student fountain is 90 feet long, the largest fountain in the city, and •will accommodate 100 persons with ease. The seats are padded with leather to such thickness that the weary cowboys will probably forget the lounging rooms. New glassware with more and better space insure an increased amount in return for the expenditure.
The personnel ot the fountain has been increased to provide the better service the manager guarantees. About a dozen Trojans are doing part time work here and more will be put on at every opportunity, according to Mr. Lockhart. In the kitchen, experienced help takes care of each department. A pastry department under the direction of a baker, and salad and sandwich departments take care to insure better food. With the-increasing of the fountain’s business, a dietitian, a chef, and hostess will probably be added to the personnel.
BANQUET SERVICE
Banquet service, dining room service and catering service has also been provided for. Booths will be erected in the main fountain store and full dinner service may be obtained. The fountain will take care of the banquet halls and the grill which is downstairs in the same room. Every item of service, even to bus boys has been looked after.
The catering department will be especially for the fraternity and sorority trade. Every special department is under the supervision of someone secured from uptown houses.
Mr. Lockhart has issued an invitation for every Trojan to look over the kitchen and other departments to see for himself the completeness of the "service and cleanliness" theme.

Funeral services for Dr. Henry Frederick Boeckman, class of ’00, and former president of the University of Southern California Dental Association, will be conducted at * p. m. today from the chapel of the Pasadena Presbyterian church. Interment will be in Rosedale cemetery following the Pasadena services.
Dr. Boeckman died as the result of injuries received in a collision between an automobile in which he was riding and a train in Pasadena on the morning of the 21st inst. This is the third fatality resulting from the accident.
One of three dental students who succeeded in making the Trojan foot* ball varsity in 190C, Dr. Boeckman held down a line position. Besides being an athlete he had a high scholastic record and has since identified himself with Southern Califor nia dental activities. He was treasurer of the Southern California State Dental Association at the time of his death. Dr. Boeckman had served as president of the Pasadena District Dental society and was a member of the Southern California Dental Golf Association, a member of the Pasadena Golf Club and was on the board of directors of the Automobile Club of Southern California.

Then, when he has been made a doctor in spite of himself, he unwittingly hits upon the cure of Lucinde, who is suffering under the affliction of dumbness because her father wants her to mary the wrong man.
STORY
In proper sequence this is what happens. Martine, the wife of Sganarelle, receives a beating at his hands, and vows vengeance. As she seeks a method to plot against him two servants of Lucinde’s father appear looking for a doctor. Martine, learning of their quest, tells them that there is a man cutting wood not far away, who, because of a peculiarity of his nature, denies that he is a doctor, though he has performed wonderful cures which she proceeds to describe. The only way in which his undue modesty can be overcome, she explains, is for the (Continued on Page Four)

Malcom Bissell To Be Summer Visitor at S.C.
Dr. Malcolm H. Bissell, prominent in geography research work, will be one of the visiting professors in the Summer Session at the University of Southern California. Dr. Bissell is the brother of Kenneth M. Bissell, who has been in our French department for some time. Dr. Bissell was formerly at Bryn Mawr College of geology, and is now conducting research work in geography at Clark College.

the graduating seniors. Each person will be given at least half an hour for the interview, and during that time I will try to ascertain what line the individual is interested in. This office will then gather in recommendations from professors and former employers of the student and attempt to place the student in some position that he or she is fitted for. In every event we will be able to at least furnish the student with some good hot tips.”
The employment bureau is doing a real good on the campus, as evidenced by the fact that from September 1926 to February 1928, the office has had 5143 calls for help. It has had 4164 applications for work from the students on the campus, and has 'been able to make 4699 placements. During the Christmas holidays Mr. Behrendt stated that 1500 students were given full time work through his office.
The system employed in the bureau, Behrendt stated, was evolved after he had made an exhaustive study of the employment bureaus of a number of large eastern colleges. Three people handle the entire volume of business in this bureau, while some eastern universities, according to Behrendt, require the services of from seven to nine people to handle the same amount of business.
After two weeks of tryout work, successful candidates for positions on the Trojan staff were announced yesterday by Muriel Heeb, assistant editor of the Daily Trojan. Those chosen for the staff were selected on their ability in writing up news material and on their ability in successfully interviewing and obtaining stories.
Those chosen for positions on the staff were: Virginia Kemper, Thomas Morby, Jonet McCoy, Bernice Goldman, Claire Thompson, Muriel Gantz, Lois Eby, Kathleen Jones, Don Hamilton, Wilma Goodwin, Robert Simpson, Jerry Duncan, Fern Pierson, Dorothy Warner and BudHarding. These people are asked to report to Muriel Heeb at once and give her their class schedule and state whether they wish to receive assignments on Tuesday and Thursday or on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. It is important that this information be turned in immediately, according to j Miss Heeb, because assignments for the new reporters are to begin at once.
The assignments will be placed on the board outside of the Y. M. C. A. as has been done in the past. Miss Heeb advised all staff members that of they could not get the story that they were assigned to find another one themselves. No one will be allowed to remain on the staff who does not hand in a story on the day that one is assigned to him.
The new reporters must be particularly careful of their newspaper style and observe all of the style rules of the Trojan. All copy must be in by two o’clock and all of it must be typed on copy paper. The reporters are also urged to watch their leads and see that they contain all of the necessary information.
S. C. TO FACE CARDS IN FINAL COURT TILT TONIGHT AT PALO ALTO
Stanford Game May Decide Championship Of Southern Division of Pacific Coast Conference; Calland Reports Team In Good Shape For Struggle.
This morning a group of nineteen Trojans, including players, coach, manager, and trainer, will detrain at Palo Alto and go into seclusion for the third game of the Stanford basketball series, the result of which may mean a basketball title for Southern California. A win gives the Trojans the championship of the Southern Division of the Pacific Coast conference, while a loss gives S. C. a tie with U. C. L. A. for second honors, with the local opponents having the edge as a result of their victory in the recent series.

The team has fallen back somewhat as was shown in the last series.

Only one practice has been held since the last game with the Bruins, but the men have had a few days to rest up and should be all set to give their best tonight in a final chance at the gonfalon, according to Coach Calland.
