CAMPUS
CAMPAIGN REACHES QUOTA
HOPES FOR TITLE SLIP FROMTROY
Inaugural Series Goes to U. C. L. A.; Mortenson Shines in Hard Fought Struggle.
Failing to find the range of the hoop during the first five minutes of each half the Trojan basketball squad lost the deciding game of their series with the University of California Bruins 47 to 37.
The margin by which the Bruins downed Calland’s squad was the teji points scored at thc opening of the second half, while the Trojans were still trying to get warmed up. Starting the half on the short end of a 22-20 score, the Bruins unlimbered their big guns and dropped in shot after shot at long | range.
After their slow start at the begin-1 ning of the game Calland’s men kept pace with thei Bruins, birt could not show enough speed to break into the lead until the last minute, when Bruner and Mortenson dropped in the shots that put the Trojans ahead.
Mortenson did the heavy work for Southern California. Hei scored 16 points, taking high honors for the evening. Bruner played a glood floor game, but his illness slowed him up and hampered the plays that are built around him and Mortenson.
Woodruff lead the Bruin scorers, with Ketchum close behind. Wilds was leading the pointgetters when he ■was taken* from the game with four personal fouls against him.
The story of the game is the story of the second half. After the Bruins took the lead, 33 to 23, they proceeded to hold it tenaciously. Whenever the Trojans threatened, the Bruins came back and fought to hold their lead.
With ten minutes to go, and a ten point lead against them, the Trojans proceeded to find the hoop. Mortenson scored eight points during the last ten minutes, and Cano added two more to make a point a minute average. But the Bruins kept pace. Woodruff and Ketchum found the bassket regularly, always keeping that ten point lead.
The game was characterized by-speed and fight. Both teams battled from the openingn gun. There were fewer personal fouls than in the last two games. It was the speed of the Bruins, displayed when the Trojans were caught flat-footed, that defeated the Trojans. Calland’s men seemed slow in comparison with the fast, shifty men from Vermont avenue.
The result of the series leaves the conference championship still in doubt. If the Trojans win their final game with Stanford, they will still have a chance to take the flag. A defeat for California, and a victory for Troy, would give Leo Calland's team the championship.

The deputations committee, under the direction of Robert Behlow. chairman, gave a program Saturday before the convention of the Southern California educators, which was held in the Women’s Residence Hall during the noon hour.
The convention was attended by the principals of the various Southern California high schools, and by other educators in this section.
Josephine Campbell, soprano, sang a group of popular and standard numbers, accompanied by Bud Pentz. The jazz orchestra of the Deputa-
tions committee, composed of Pentz, piano; Tommy Bryant, banjo; Dale Stoddard, saxaphone; and Terrel De Lapp, traps, furnished some additional music. Pentz and Bryant also contributed several solos.
The committee has been very active this year in the matter of furnishing diversified entertainment for many programs and conventions throughout this end of the state.
Many of the problems of the educators in the prep schools were discussed at the convention, which is an annual affair of the educators.
Hawaiian Educator Will Teach Here
Dr. Stanley D. Porteus, director of the Psychological clinic and professor of finical psychology at the University of Hawaii, is one of fifty-six eminent educators selected to serve as visiting professor at the University of Southern California during the 1928 Summer Session (June to August), according to announcement of Dr. L. B. Rogers, dean of the Trojan Summer School.
PICK PACE AS DENTAL PRESIDENT
Conley Is New Second Vice-President ; Patterson Is Named Sec’y--Treas.
BY RALPH FLYNN
Outpolling his opponent by a comfortable majority in student body elections which were held yesterday, Ralph Pace gained the office and duties of student body president of Dental college. Pace won over Reynolds Foutz to gain the coveted position. Henry Harrison beat George Beaty for the first vice-president’s job while Frank Conley gathered in more votes than Donald Bayne, and took the second vice-president’s office. Harry Patterson was unanimously elected secretary-trea-surer.
Ralph Pace, the new Dental prexy, is one of the most active men on the Dental campus. He was chairman of the Dentists’ rally committee and is a member of the all-university rally committee. He has been a Trojan Knight for two years and is now secretary of the organization. He is Dental editor on the Trojan and served on the Dental El Rodeo staff last year. Alpha Tau Epsilon, Dental honor fraternity, honored him with membership last year. He is also affiliated with Delta Sigma Delta fraternity.
NEW ELECTION SYSTEM
The student body elections this year were unusual in that they were held in the middle, instead of at the end of the school year. The reason for this is that the seniors only have been eligible for the most important positions in the student body at Dental and during the last half of the senior year the men are so busy studying and preparing for the state Dental Board examinations that they are forced to slight the responsibilities that their office endows. Under the new system, a junior will hold the office for the last half of the semester and the first half of the next semester, or from February to February.
Ross Lelansky is the retiring president. All of the offices but one are held by present juniors or seniors. Frank Conley, who won the reigns of the second vice-president, is a sophomore and will control the junior Dents who are in the Science and Technic building on Exposition boulevard.

SPEECH SCHOOL SELS HOP BIDS
Tickets for the School of Speech costume dance to be held March 30, went on sale last Friday, according to Ethel Bickford, social chairman. The setting for the dance will be the Lakeside Country Club, near the National studios at Burbank . Anyone may attend who has the price of a ticket and who gets that ticket before the limited supply is gone. Demands for tickets for the last dance, held last semester, were so great that it is found necessary to hold the dance in a larger place this time.
Everyone is to come dressed to represent some character on the stage or screen and there will be a prize for the best costume. One of the best orchestras on the campus has been secured for the occasion. It is Ray Hatfield’s orchestra which has just returned from a round-the-world cruise on the Dollar Line. Campusites will realize that the orchestra alone will make the dance well worth the price of the ticket.
DEAN PICTURES FUTURE OF S. C. LAW SCHOOL
Fortells Growth of College To Keep Pace With the Development of Los Angeles; Mere Competition On Existing Levels Not Sufficient, He Claims.
Opportunities for a great law school in Los Angeles that would rank with the richly endowed and older schools of Harvard, Columbia, Yale, and Northwestern universities were pictured by Dean Justin Miller of the University of Southern California Law School at a dinner Tuesday night of last week at the Jonathan Club. It was in honor of the senior class of the school by Alfred I. Mellenthin, a member of the class. Seventy-five seniors, faculty members and
Mother guests were present.
Error Given In Cast By Trojan Brings Apologies
Charlyn Tedrick, not “Charles” will take the lead in the 1928 Extravaganza. The name was incorrectly spelled in the Trojan yesterday. Miss Tedrick is a student n the College of Music.
Gwendolyn Rickard, in the part )f Sabra Webster, a sophisticated jngenue, and Robert Cooke, as Walter the perennial student, are .he minor leads in the musical ;omedy. This was omitted from :he flrst announcement.
The reporter who wrote the story was not to blame. The Troian offers, through the editor, sincere apologies to the three persons concerned in the announcement, to Miss Larsen, the author, and to the play productions department, for the error.
Tickets On Sale For Junior Class French Comedy
Moliere’s “The Doctor In Spite of Himself” Has Impressionistic Settings.
Tickets for the junior class play, “The Doctor in Spite of Himself,” to be presented in Bovard Auditorium Friday evening of this week, are now on sale at tbe cashier’s window in the Students Store. They will be for reserved seats and may be purchased singly, in pairs, rows or blocks.
Settings for the French comedy will be something entirely different from any used before on the university stage, states Ray MacDonald, N. C. P., university play director. Impressionism will be the key-note for the production. This will introduce something new in campus dramatics. It will be entirely different from the atmosphere of either "The Chinese Lantern” or “Adam and Eva.”
Impressionistic type of setting will be used throughout the entire production. The exterior scenes for the first and third acts and for the interior of the second will be of this type. The designing, construction and erection of these settings is under the charge of Jack MacFaden, who has been appointed stage manager.
The forest scene in the first act will effectively carry out this theme according to the plans nearing completion under the direction of MacFaden. Grotesque tree trunks from which weird faces will peer down on the human quarrels going on beneath them will stand out against a back site of a contrasting color. The scarcity of trunks and limbs will be more effective in its suggestiveness than a profusion would be.
For the interior scene of the second act merely a suggestion of a room will be given.
Los Angeles, a world port and a city that is destined to be one of the largest on this continent, was declared by Dean Miller to be an ideal location for a law school that would be sufficiently endowed to carry on extended research into the complications of criminal law, international and admiralty law, trade relations and judicial procedure and administration. It is particularly vital that the facilities for teaching law be developed at the University of Southern California, he asserted, since it has the only approved law school in the Southwestern United States, the most rapidly developing section of the Union.
PREXY SPEAKS
Other speakers at the dinner were President Rufus B. von KieinSmid, who told of the university’s plans for immediate development and expansion; Ranny C. Draper, president of the Law School student body; Bernard Brennan, president of the University of Southern California Law School Alumni Association, and Orra E. Monette, vice chairman, board of directors of the Bank of Italy, who discussed the relation of the law school to business. A musical program was furnished by the women’s trio of the university glee club.
Merely to compete on present levels with existing law schools is not enough, Dean Miller told the assembled seniors. The law' school of the future, he declared, must retain the best of what has been developed and at the same time keep pace with changing conditions in the world. He pointed out that Harvard Law School, despite her vast resources and unexcelled library facilities, had recently set out to raise five million dollars for further endowment and improvements. Southern California can very well, he declared, undertake the solution of some of the major problems that vex the profession and cause untold millions of dollars in waste and social disruption.
CLEAN - UP COMMITTEE ENDSWORK
Drive Closes As $150,000 Mark Reached By Group; Alumnus Make Up Deficit.
- BY MATT BARR
Closing the student Endowment campaign with a rush, the clean-up committee, under the direction of Paul Elmquist, turned in a last minute flood of subscriptions that netted $100 over the
quota.	1
In addition to the student contributions, an alumnus, who refuses to allow his name to be published, pledged a subscription of 12760, in order that the success of the campaign might be assured. If the contributions already promised are received before the end of this week, the subscription will be reduced, remaining onty large enough to asure a surplus of $100.
At the close of the official campaign, three weeks ago, there was a deficit of $23,000 to be raised. During the time that no active work was done on the campus, a sum in excess of $5200 filtered into the Endowment drive office. Most of the contributions were voluntary ones, mailed to the office by graduate students who had not been approached on the campus.
The two-day clean-up drive netted $5040 dollars. The conditions under which the large anonymous contribution were made were that the donor would guarantee to bring the total subscribed on the last day to $5500, $100 dollars more than were necessary to reach the goal of $150,000.
AID FROM LAW Although the Law School has not given its individual drive a great deal of publicity, it must be given credit for helping to bring the total subscription to its completion. The seniors were the first to make a concerted effort to obtain subscriptions. Each member of the class pledged himself to give at least $50 toward the fund for the building of the new library. Following the lead, the other three classes voted unanimously to donate the same amount. The total figures have not been compiled.
The efforts of the clean-up committee will be rewarded by a huge celebration, plans for which will be announced today, according to Paul Elmquist. More red paint will be ordered to complete the color scheme on the arch in front of the Administration building.
"I have never seen a finer example of co-operation than that displayed by the students of Southern California during this drive,” Elmquist stated. “The two committees, the large group (Continued on Page Four)
