STANFORD PREXY TO SPEAK HERE
DRAPER IS SCHEDULED FOR TALK
Henley Will Go North in Exchange Courtesy With Palo Altoan.
Murray Draper, student body president of Stanford University, will speak to assembled Southern California students next Friday morning when the regular rally is held in Bovard Auditorium.
This is continuing ihe tradition now existant on this campus of arranging for exchange speeches between the presidents of universities on the Pacific coast. The tradition was started two years ago with Pomona and was continued last year while Leland ‘‘Dee’' Talman was president here, j
As a return for this appearance Wil- j liam Henley will represent Southern California at Stanford University on October 14. when he will speak to the Stanford students in their rally prior to the game of October 15.
Henley will also appear before the students of California University on October 21 at Berkeley, as another date in this series of exchanges.
The week following his appearance there, October 28, Wright Morton, president of the California student body, wil address S. C. students at the night rally in Bovard auditorium, previous to the California game to be played here.
This tradition, Henley feels, has done much to produce good results between the personnel of the various universities. He states that his contracts with the presidents last year were profitable as far as inter-presidential relations were concerned, and that they undoubtedly had some influence on the feeling by the students.
During the time that the tradition has been followed on the campus Pomona, Stanford, California and \J. C. L. A. have been some of the colleges with whom exchanges have been made and it is felt that the relations cannot help but be continued this year by keeping alive the tradition.

RECORD IS SET UP BY COMMERCE
Enrollment Mark Presages Successful Year in College of University.
BY LEON SCHULMAN
Starting with the largest enrollment in its history, the College ot Commerce and Business Administration, is off to the biggest year of ifs existence. Dean McClung estimates the increase over last year’s enrollment as being more than twenty per- j cent. The increase is especially prominent in the large number of graduate students attending the col-1 lege of Commerce.
To cope with the increased enroll- | ment, the faculty has been increased, there being six new members on this year’s teaching staff. Some idea of the size of the faculty may be obtained from the fact that forty faculty members attended the recent banquet in honor of the new dean, Dr. McClung.
MAJOR GROUPS
The College of Commerce has perfected a very detailed organization. The officers of the Commerce student body, are Wallace Hicks, president; Miss Nora Hoffman, vice-president; Miss Margaret Nelson, secretary, and Allan Mainland, treasurer. For further sub-organization, theer are some eleven “major” groups, such as accounting, foreign trade, etc., which give dinners every month or two. At thees dinners, men from the business world address the club members, thus providing outside contacts.
[Commerce has its own, professional fraternities, as well. The professional fraternities are Al pha Kappa Psi, and Delta Sigma Pi. Alpha Kappa Psi presents a scholarship cup to the freshman having the highest average during his first year, and Delta Sigma Pi presents a scholarship key to the student having the highest average during the four years he is in attendance at the College of Commerce at tl\e University of Southern California.
HOUSES WILL PLEDGE GIRLS TUESDAY NIGHT
Friday evening, with .each house giving a formal dinner, at various clubs in the city, formal rush week was finished. From ten-thirty Friday night until Tuesday evening, when pledging will take place, truce will be carried on, and no sorority girl may talk to a rushee either on or off campus.
On Monday morning the bids will be sent out, and all those girls who have been bid by any house will receive a notice to that effect from the office of the Dean of Women. The rushees will be requested to report to that office and state their preference, after which the bids will be mailed special delivery to the chosen girl.
Pledging wiil take place on Tuesday evening at seven-thirty at the different chapter houses.

PLACES ON EL RODEO STAFF ARE STILL OPEN
Applications for El Rodeo staff positions may still be turned in, according to Dave Bryant, editor. Although a number reported last week and their names and a statement of their experience were taken, approximately fifteen more students are desired for the staff.
A new plan is outlined this year*S. U. S. C. building. This is across
37th street from the Pharmacy building and is the first house west of University Avenue on the south side of the street.
for the reorganization of the staff by the editor. This will provide for responsible staff members for the next two years. Editorial assistants will be composed for the most part of freshmen and sophomores who wish to continue in 6taff work on the annual. These assistants will work up from the positions which they will be given this year into ones of responsibility next year. This, explains the editor, will eliminate the dirth of good material for staff members in the future which is existant at present.
The editor’s office, where applications are made for staff positions, is located on the second floor of the A.
Photographic work will be started on October 10 for the annual. This will be handled by Witzel Studios. This studio took care of all individual photographic work last year and the results were so favorable that it was asked to do the work again this year. Pictures will be taken on the second floor of the Zeller building, which is across University Avenue from the Pharmacy, south of the Geology building.
Beta Gamma Sigma is the national, honorary fraternity at Commerce. Selection is made on the basis of scholarship and serious interest in business. Phi Chi Theta is the women’s professional sorority. Membership qualifications are based on personality, scholastic ability and promise of marked business ability. Other fraternities and sororites are Gamma Epsilon Pi, Beta Gamma Sigma, Beta Alpha Psi. Delta Phi Epsilon and Sigma Beta Chi.
CLUB POPULAR
Prominent among the clubs at Commerce is the Advertising Club. The Ad Club gave a well-attended dinner last Wednesday, and is making plans for similar dinners in the near future. The Ad Club offers free publicity service to any campus organizations which need such service. Last year, the club managed the publicity for the Extravaganza and the musical comedy, “Aye, Aye Sir.” Officers of the club are Carl Plate, president; Kenneth Lindsley, secretary, Dorothy Kendall, vice-president, and Dr. Moriarity and Dr. Morse as faculty members.
Flans are under way for a dance to be given in the early part of December, according to Wally Hicks. Also on the social program, are smokers from time to time as they are needed. Arrangements are being made, already for the annual Commerce Dinner to be given near the end of the year. Last year, more than 500 attended the banquet, and an even larger attendance is expected, thus far ahead.
BAND MAKES BIG HIT WITH DRILL
Trojan Band Uncorks New Stunts in Santa Clara Game; Plays Yale Song.
Playing and marching at the Santa Clara game ,the Southern California Trojan Band scored a hit with the spectators with its novel formations and stunts. Harold Roberts, leader of the band .uncorked several new drill features which “went over big” with the crowd.
A unique feature of the drill was the formation of the two letters, *W. C.’\ in memory of Walter Camp. The game itself was in memory of Camp, the “granddaddy of American football” Part of the proceeds went to help build the “Walter Camp Memorial Gateway” at Yale’s athletic field so the band played a famous Yale song, “Boola Boola”
The band wore the flashy cardinal and gold blazers and white flannels which were worn last year. However, the band will soon come out in “novel and different uniforms,” according to Harold Grayson, manager of the band.
Much of the music was broadcast over radio. The full 155-man personnel of the band played. It is believed that when the band is enlarged to 175 men, according to present plans, that it will be the largest college band in the country. Last year it was hailed as the finest band of its type in the United States.

His every word will be repeated after the speech is finished, and faulty enunciation and other errors can be pointed out to the student by means of the record.

As it is now Telegraphone is doing duty in the office of Ray K. Immel, dean of the School of Speech, but active work in a class will soon be the lot of the new arrival. His tryouts have proved satisfactory, as the Misses Marjorie Snow and Helen Morlan seem to be attesting by the broad smiles in the picture—and he has met all requirements for a regular berth in the voice-educating faculty.

Tappan, Kreiger, Startle With Touchdowns. Bronchos Register Two.
By BILL HARVEY
Captain Morley Drury took over the part as head thunderer Saturday and led the Trojans “Thundering Herd” to a 52 to 12 win over the Santa Clara visitors at the Coliseum. Drury was the bright star of the Trojan attack, and although his gains were not sensational, they were steady and of a decidedly colored hue.
Expected to be one of the hardest struggles on the Trojan schedule, the Bronchos were not able to stand the gaff of Coach Howard Jones’ ball packers for more than a quarter, in which period they held and threatened the home town-ers. The Trojans pushed across one score in the opening spasm, three in the second, two in the third and two in the final quarter.
Drury kicked off for the Trojans and booted the ball to the Santa Clara 10 yard line to Cummings who ran the ball to his own 25 yard line where he was downed by Hibbs. The Bronchos tried the Trojan forwards three times and failed to gain. Simoni then kicked to Southern California’s 15 yard line. The ball on this kick took a bad jump and went past Drury.
After piercing the Broncho line for a three yard gain Drury fumbled and the visitors recovered... Petty smashes by Simoni and McCormick placed the pall on the Trojan 6 yard line... Here the Trojans held and took posession of the ball on their own one-helf yard line. Hibbs punted out of danger.
TONY STARS Tony Stepcnovich made possible a Trojan parade a few minutes later when he intercepted a Broncho lateral pass in mid field. Russ Saunders romped around the Santa Clara right end (Continued on Page Three)
Babes Try a Dempsey In Squawk Over Annual Rush Decision
“We were 'rooked’ in the decision,” declared the silver lounged leader of “Ye Howling Babies.” “We were the undisputable victors if the tie-up.” He is inclined to believe that the best way to prove absolute superiority of the Freshman would be to challenge the alleged victors of the fracas to a tug-o-war over a pit of oil... The entire freshman class are dissatisfied with the official verdict but they agree that they are willing to sacrifice the victory which they believe is theirs if they may fulfill any school traditions by doing so.	’
The Sophomores declare that they won the battle fairly and shall continue to resume their air of superiority.
The victory of the upper-classmen was confirmed by the Knights who were the supervisors of the affair. In any case there was much “pent-up’' fury dTspelled Thursday and both classes feel better for having battled.
LAWYERS TO AID COMMUNITY CHEST
Joseph P. Loeb, Vice-chairman of Advence Gifts Committee, Appeals To Business Men.
Support of the coming annual appeal of the Los Angeles Community Chest was asked of all lawyers of the city today by Attorney Joseph P. Loeb, a vice-chairman of the Chest’s advance gifts committee. The preventive and character-aiding activities of Chest agencies were stressed by Loeb.
“So long as philanthropy was ruled wholly by sentiment,” he said, the public was interested primarily in relieving the cases of distress that happened to be brought to its attention. With the entrance of scientific method into this field, supplementing and directing sentiment, now hope has come of rendering a more far-reaching service that emphasizes prevention rather than the relief of existing evils. More wholesome conditions of life are resulting from the work of the agencies now.”
KAPPA LUNCHEON
Members of Kappa Kappa Gamma will meet for luncheon at the Cottage Tea Room at noon today.

DR. BOGARDUS RECEIVES PRAISE FOR WRITINGS
Rarely intriguing, according to a recent interview with Dr. Bogardus, head of the Department of Sociology at Southern California, is the study of the social problems of man, and judging by the remarkable growth of that department during the past fe\v years, there are doubtless many others who agree and who are making or have made this study their life work, *ciological Society began to hold
monthly meetings, at which the mein-
The international praise which is accorded the numerous literary and sociological volumes of Dr. Bagardus. is something which has brought hundreds of enthusiastic students to Southern California yearly, and which has influenced almost every student of the university in enrolling in the courses of that department.
Dr. Bogardus is at present completing his work on a history of his department, which is to compose one chapter in a volume of similar material, composed by the University of Chicago Press. Various sections of this paper deal with pre-departmental days, the first books, the primary organization, publications, committees, the societies associated with the work, members of the department, the establishment of the first freshman course in 1911, and the present opening of over 50 courses to upper division and graduate students.
In 1915 the Southern California So-
bers invited important speakers to lecture. This society later developed or branched into two others, thus losing its individuality, though its fine work was by no means wasted.
The Sociological Research Society, composed largely of department faculty members, is one of the newer organizations. Its bi-monthly meetings, held during the last years are devoted to two kinds of reports:
Findings Reports, or those concerning incomplete or tentative data, and
Clinic reports, concerning the presentation of various problems.
The chief interest of the department is the Journal of Applied Sociology, which they helped to establish. This journal not only publishes reports and contributions from every country on the face of the earth, but has upon its advisory and editorial staffs mem bers from famous universities of France, India, Africa, China, Poland. Hawaii, and Germany.
