Professional and Honorary Group Members Must Have Pictures Taken By Friday.
All professional and honorary fraternities and sororities, with the ex ception of those in Dental college have been schduled for El Rodeo photographs at Austin studios, in the basement of the Student Union, dur ing the week ending Friday, Janu ary 17, according to Morton More house, assistant editor.
"Every professional and honorary organization which has requested a page in El Ilodeo must notify its members of the necessity for making appointments within the next two days, as the campus studios will be closed on that date, and no sit tings will be given to late comers," Morehouse says.
"Owing to the necessity for making up senior and fraternity sections immediately, the El Rodeo photographers will take no photographs ,jext after January 17. if it were possible to keep the studios open until February 1, undoubtedly many more students would be enabled to obtain photographs for the book. Already the number of sittings made is far in excess of any previous record, However, operations iu the studio will have to cease this week to allow meeting a definite printer's deadline.
‘‘Many students who have had their photographs made during the past month have not yet returned their proofs. If these are not delivered to the studio within a week after the sitting is made, the work of the editorial staff is delayed. Students are requested to return their proofs at once, and those whose photographs are taken this week are urged to return their proofs within two days, if possible. A maximum of one week will be allowed, and all persons who fail to observe the rule will lose the right to have a photograph in the book," Morehouse concluded.

CHINA LEADS OTHERS
China for the past seven years has sent more students to the United States than any other country. In the year 1928-29 they led all nations with 12S7 students enrolled out of 9685 for-cigu students pursuing their studies tn this country. The closest rival to the oriental country was Canada with | 1122, then came Philippines, 1073; Japan, 814; Russia, 501; and England with 369.
It is interesting to note that the ma jority of students coming to the United States are our western neighbors, showing the great awakening
Arierican industry is quickly taking cognizance. Then Russia, under the Soviet government, is sending a goodly number of its most promising students to this country to gain some of the knowledge that has put this country ahead of every other nation in such a comparatively short space of time. Such facts are significant in the consideration of world peace.
FORTY-TWO NATIONS HERE At Southern California approximately 12 nations are represented in the university’s enrollment. This compares lavorably with the 112 nations listed by the Institute of International Education of which 89 had representatives in this country during the past year. Many of the world’s most remote and least heard of places have student?; studying in this country. Such nations aa Abyssinia, Azervaijan, Es-thonia, Formosa, Iceland, Isle of Man, Mauritius, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, To-goland, and Tangiers were listed as having sent over students.
The Institute through its work student movement has done much to foster the movement of foreign students coming to America to study. Through arrangements with the Immigration Continued on Page Four
