The Southern California Vol. VII. Los Angeles, California, Wednesday, January 12, 1916 No. 57 COMMENTS ON TRACK TEAM ISSUED BY CAPTAIN BRADLEY VACANCIES TO BE FILLED ORCHESTRA WILL TOUR SOUTHERN CITIES CANDY SUPPLANTS PORK AND BEANS AS TRAINING DIET OF Think of the Fun of the Exercise and of the Pleasure of Being Applauded and “Come on Out"—Berths Are Open for All Who Care to Enter Manager of University Orchestra Schedules Important Concert Dates —Players to Give First Program of Pleasing Numbers at Beach By Wilbur Bradley As captain of the track team I should like to say a few words as to the chances we have this year of putting out a winning track team. The athletic teams are a part of the student activities just as well as our class work. We should support the team just as hard as we work on our lessons, and sometimes a little harder. For if we have a winning team the eyes of the people around us are opened to the possibilities of our college just as they are if we receive good marks. After these rather impersonal remarks let us look at the true state of affairs in the track work. The first thing that we notice is the scarcity of men who have won monograms. At the present time there are some half dozen men who are still in school who have received monograms, and very few others who have been out for track. Surely the freshman class can not till up all the vacancies that have occurred in the team, and we will have to do something if we do not wish to fall into the Normal School class, what we want every student to do is to sit down calmly and have a few serious thoughts about going out for the team. Surely many men can find time to spend a few hours a week in pleasure on the track and hear the applause that is caused by his honest work. Now, finally, men of the University, the track team is yours; if we have a poor one the blame will be yours; if a good team the credit will go to you for your efforts. Aw come on out! LYCEUM POSTPONES WEDNESDAY MEETING Owing to a conflict of dates with the regular law school debating tryouts, the Law Lyceum will not meet for its regular Thursday evening gathering. Many of the organization's members have entered the tryouts. At the last meeting, Seymour Sil-verston and George H. Banta were victorious on the affirmative of the question that a lawyer may defend a client whom he knows to be guilty. Returning from a four-day trip to j various cities in Southern California, Alfred Epstein, manager of the University Orchestra, announces that he has booked engagements for concerts at Pomona, Riverside, Redlands, San Bernardino, Santa Monica and Santa Ana. He is now arranging a schedule to include Pasadena, Sierra Madre, Monrovia and other nearby cities. A dress rehearsal of the orchestra was held last Monday night. Able solos, comedy sketches and pleasing orchestra numbers are assured. The second appearance of the orchestra this season will be made at Trinity Auditorium from 7 o’clock to 8 o’clock tonight. The first regular concert to be given this year will be at the Hotel Virginia, at Long Beach, February 28. Goodbye, big, old T-bone beefsteak; farewell, Boston beans. Enter the era of the candy-fed athlete. Recent physiological experiments show that sugar—and lots of it—is benenficial to a well-trained athlete. Investigations made by S. C. medical students at the Whit-tier-U. S. C. fiasco proved conclusively that excitement, such as is experienced even in a slow game, causes a loss of sugar— and sugar is vital. So, beginning with this track season, boxes of candy have first call with the athletes. The address of your favorite athlete, girls, can be obtained at the registrar’s office. But to make sure you had better make personal inquiries; some prefer “Pig’n’Whistle” brand, others like “Pin Ton,” and some like the good, old, university “classroom” stuff. I like “Orange Blossom.” LAW DEBATERS TO TRY OUT TONIGHT Tryouts for the regular law school debates will be held tonight at 8 o’clock in the lecture room. The specific question, dealing with some phase of National Preparedness, will be given out at 6 o’clock, when drawings will be made. More than thirty names have been received for the tryouts. The debaters selected by the judges will argue the opposite side of the question on Thursday evening, at which time final selections for Judge Wells’ squad class will be made. SNAPPER SAYS HAVE A T THIS WEEK Number of Times Picture Is to Appear in El Rodeo Should Be Indicated on Back of Receipt—Price Will Be Raised on Delinquents U. S. C. STUDENT GIVES READING AT REDLANDS Miss Marjorie Kneclit, a student of the College of Oratory of U. S. C., gave a pleasing and appreciated reading before the students of Redlands High School. The reading consisted of two numbers—“The Absent Guest,” by Rolfe Gilson, and “A Child’s Almanac,” by James Foley. “Last call for photograps,” said Walter Watson, editor of the El Rodeo, yesterday. “All students expecting their pictures to appear in the 1916 El Rodeo must get their photograph taken before Friday evening, January 15th.” Witzel, the photographer, 811 South Hill, is doing the El Rodeo work. Editor Watson advises students who get pictures taken to inform the photographer of the number of times they expect their photographs to appear in El Rodeo. The number of times the photograph is to appear should lie put on the back of the deposit receipt. It is doubtful if photographs will lie accepted later than Friday. If so, there will be an increase in price. SIXTEEN BASKETBALL GAMES FOR A DOLLAR TO BE HELD ERIDAY MEET IN LECTURE ROOM L. T. Morehead and Fred Draper, ’14 Graduates, to Be on Program— “Industrial Compensation Insurance” Will Be Discussed The Associated Engineering Society of the University of Southern California will meet in the Physics lecture room of the Electrical Department on Friday evening at 7:45. This is the second meeting since the new society has been organized, and President Harold Briggs has made arrangements for an interesting program. L. T. Morehead, ’14, well known to the older students of U. S. C., who is now with the State Insurance Bureau, will speak to the society on “Industrial Compensation Insurance.” Fred E. Draper, ’14, district inspector for the State Compensation Insurance Fund, will consider "Safety Appliances; Prevention of Accidents.” Both of these men received their training at U. S. C., and the information which they have gained from their present work will lie of great value to the technical students. All students of the technical departments are requested to be present and a cordial invitation is extended to all. THESPIANS STAGE Season basketball tickets, good for every varsity game this year—sixteen in all—may lie purchased for $1.00 from F.arl Brown, Harry Sowden, “Bill” Sprotte and Fred Teschke. Combining a one-act comedy with the Men’s and Women’s Glee Clubs and Harold Brewster, the Loan Fund Committee will give an entertainment in chapel this morning. It will be the first appearance of the Woman’s Glee Club, while the men singers are prepared with a number of humorous songs. 1 he characters in the one-act comedy are: Monsieur Bol, “Bill” I3al-lis; Mine. Bol, Florence Don Carlos; Rosalie, Rachael Graves. Robbery and housemaid complications are guaranteed to make it interesting. Harold Bruster has a clever story up his sleeve which lie will unroll. Admission will be 15 cents. The proceeds are to increase the Loan Fund, which is used to aid girls in completing their college course.
