WAMP SHORT STORY CONTESTJO CLOSE
Manuscripts Must Be All in By End of Vacation, States Editor of Magazine.
The short story contest sponsored by the Wampus which has been on for the past month will terminate the first day after vacation, January 2, 1930, states Bud Fetterly, editor of the magazine. Those who are expecting to hand in stories during the vacation may address them to the editor of the Wampus in care of the university.
It is asked that those who have not already written their stories, use new and original themes. The supposition has been made that collegiate stories will gain more favor in the eyes of the judges than some old worn theme which is trite. Any story which is merely a rehash of other magazine stories that have run for years will be cast aside without even a second thought by the committee, as the main object of the contest is to get something new in the line of short tsories.
The judges have been chosen and are to be Prof. Lynn Clark and Prof. M. Thompson who are of the English department and are well able to judge such a contest. They have agreed to take into consideration style, plot, phraseology and manner of presentation of the theme of the story.
The prize is a secret, however the editor states that it is well worth working for as it is bigger and more appropriate than most. The winning story besides gaining the prize for the author will be printed in the January issue of the Wampus along with a resume of the contest and will be the story which will gain the most outstanding place of prominence in the book.
RELIGION SCHOOL PLANS MEETING

New Year’s Game Tickets Selling Fast
Indications Show That Rose Bowl Will Be Filled For Annual Classic.
Without doubt the 1929 edition of the Tournament of Roses football game to be played New Year'B Day in the Pasadena Itose Bowl between representatives of the University of Southern California and the University of Pittsburgh is creating more interest than any game played since the inauguration of the annual affair in 1916, was the statement of Arnold Eddy, general manager of ticket sales this morning. Applications are rolling In at an unprecedented rate and the seats are going fast although it was understood that applications will continue to be accepted up until Monday. Ticket sales to date exceed considerably the sales at thc same time for the Stanford-Notre Dame game of 1925 which up to now lias held the record for amount of interest and speed of ticket sales.
Four thousand tickets at $1.50 a-plece have been set aside for the use of the S. C. student body and they are expected to be gone within a few days following their being placed on sale at 1:30 p. m. yesterday. The supporters of the Pitt Panther are expected to make use of in the neighborhood of 2,000 seats I which will be situated on the west side of the stadium, as the S. C. rooting section will do its stuff on the sunny cast side of the bowl.
Between fifty and sixty thousand seats have been sold already for the Carnegie Tech-S. C. game in the Coliseum this coming Saturday. The well known colorfulness and playing ability of the fiery Scots coupled with the fact that one of the teams has been chosen to play in the Rose Bowl at New Year's have combined to create an unusual amount of Interest in this intersectional struggle. Since the Pitt Panthers decisively trounced them earlier in the season, everyone is expected to be on hand with an eye to comparisons on the possible outcome of the Rose Bowl affair. Whereas an easy win by the Trojans is likely to establish them as the favorites, a close score or a win by Carnegie will make Pitt a top heavy favorite to cop when the two teams meet.
PARADE RULES ARE SCHEDULED BY COMMITTEE
Line of March Begins at 34th Street and University Avenue.
Latest development’s concerning the 1929 Homecoming parade involve the changc of the location for the parades forming from the corner of 28th street and University avenue, to the part of 34th street between University and Figueroa. This was the statement Issued by Larry Weddle, chairman of the parade committee. The change Is being made to eliminate the possibility of a traffic tie-up which might result in attempting to get almost 60 floats across Jefferson Avenue. The parade will form at 10:00 a. m., and any floats entering the line-up later than 11 o’clock wlll not be eligible to compete for prizes. This ruling will be strictly enforced.
Another Important feature to be noted by the houses, added Weddle, is the fact that the east side of Menlo Avenue, from Exposition to Santa Barbara boulevard, ls being reserved for the floats after they come out of the Coliseum, so that houses need not worry about getting their floats back to 28th street, or wherever the case may be. Those floats out ef the CoMscum flrst should start lining up at the Exposition boulevard end of Menlo.
RULES GIVEN In answer to numerous requests Deceived by the parade chairman, the following list of rules is being published to eliminate all doubts, and it is imperative that all organizations follow the rules to the letter:
1.	There shall be two divisions of
the parade:
a.	Colleges of the university.
b.	Men's nnd women's organizations.
2.	There shall be one flrst prize ln
