Bomb Explodes, Injures Postal Worker
WASHINGTON, May (U.R1 —A postal employe opened a copy of “Uncle Tom'* Cabin” In the dead letter office today and a roar, a blinding: flash, and the smell of gunpowder enveloped the room. One of the most delicately balanced bombs ever put Into the mails mangled one of Myrton 8. Genung's hands. Lacerations on his forehead poured blood down his face. William Jackson, a postoffice messenger, standing behind him, suffered slight wounds.
The explosion blew the wrapping to blta and destroyed the postmark, best clue available to postal Inspectors in running down the sendee. He had cunningly hollowed out the pages of the book. The bomb was adjusted so opening the cover would set off the trigger.

Seniors Leave On Ditch Day, Juniors Study
Class of ’34 Departs From Campus as Third-year Men Stay Homa Traditional Pitched BattU Fails To Materialize As Men Leava
Hi one of the quietest ditch days ln years, members of the class ot ’34 last night started on their annual exodus. No resistance was offered by members of the Junior class, and the seniors were allowed to depart ln peace.
Although lt has been • tradition on the Trojan campus for an annual fight between the two upper classes with kidnaping of prominent men on both sides, member* of the class of ’35 preferred to let the senior men go on their way undisturbed.
Conflicting reports flooded th# campus last night on the destination of the fleeing fourth-year men, Some claimed that they were gathering at Lake Arrowhead In the San Bernardino mountains, while others reported Balboa as the rendezvous for the ditch day.
Little Interest Shown
A majority of the Juniors showed little interest ln the affair, most of the members of the class had too much studying ln preparation for final examinations to be bothered with the traditional pitched battles which usually accompany the exodus. The same | factors caused many of the seniors to disregard tho general trek to the hide-out.
No ditch day was held by th* senior class last year, and to this was attributed the lack of Interest ln last night’s activities. The word of the departing caravan flashed around the campus last night as the different fraternities held their regular Monday night ] meetings, but the general comment was "let 'em go.”
Campus Leaders Leave
Many of the fourth-year men were expected to be attending classes as usual today, but most of the campus leaders will probably be off In some far away meeting place for Uie day. Such men as Larry Pritchard, Roy Johnson, Wendell Sether, John Leach, and Fred Robinson were not on cam> pus at a late hour last night.
Tlie lack of Interest ln the goings-on last night evinced tha fact | that the annual ditch day will probably cease to be the oampus tradition which ft has been for many years on the Southern California campus. In the years to come, the fourth-year men will probably be allowed to leave the campus without any unusual activity,
