WILL CHECK TROY CLUBS
F orty-seven Unrecognized Groups Will Be Reconsidered Today.
Forty-seven campus organizations which were last week declared by the organizations committee to be non.existant will be considered this afternoon when the committee meets at 2:15. Those organizations which were notified last week have been requested to supply the committee with the proper data by noon today in order that they may be passed upon at the meeting.
Monday of last week the organizations committee startled the Trojan campus by announcing that by legislative act number nine of the constitution of the associated students of the University of Southern California 47 organizations were non-existant and would be denied ail privileges of pledging, the holding of social events, and the use ot student publications. The act reads:
“An organization is any body of students — honorary, professional, service or social — in the University of Southern California, distinguished by a special name, that holds meetings, regular or irregular, for the purpose of transacting business peculiar to its own interests, and which is chartered by the Legislative council upon recommendation of the Student Organizations committee. The act further states “No group of students shall be permitted to exist as such unless it has signified Its intention of, or has formally petitioned for a charter."
Chastened by the restrictions imposed by the ruling, several of the organizations have attended to the necessary filing of an application for a charter, but about forty groups are still on the list.
Fred Pierson, chairman of the committee, has requested that any organization representative who wishes to appear before the committee should see him before noon today. Pierson will be able to supply information regarding the organizations any day at chapel hour or between
2	and 4 p. m.
Those wha comprise the committee are: Lucille Huebner, vice-president W. S. G. A.; Herb Pratt, president Professional Inter-Fraternity Council; Ralph Flynn, editor of the Daily Trojan; Jane Lawson, secretary of the W. S. (J. A.; and Fred Pierson, chairman.

Sophomores Invite Frosh To Big Battle
Second Year Class Issues Tie-up Challenge to S. C. Freshmen.
Tie-up! Sophomores vs. Freshmen!
That is the spectacle in store for upper class students when the two lower classes of the university clash in what should be one of the most hard fought battles In the history of the tie-up, sometime in the near future on Bovard field.
The challenge for the event was issued yesterday by the sophomores through Thomas Kuchel, president of the Becond year division. Although the freshmen have not had sufficient time to answer the challenge lt is believed by student ofllcers of the university that they will accept.
The tie-up is an annual affair in which the members of the freshman class get an opportuninity to pay back all ill-treatment received from the sophomores. During the past two years, however, sophomore classes have emerged victoriously from the tie-up.
Here is the challenge Issued by the sophomores.
A PROCLAMATION
It has come to the attention of the sophomore class that the freshmen on this campus are becoming disrespectful to the upperclassmen. The mere thought of freshmen, green, light headed, low-down, no-accounts that they are, believing that they are of any use on this campus Is most repulsive to the university. It was believed that freshman week would show the under-dogs their place on this campus; but as it apparently has not, the sophomores of Southern California rise to the occasion to show it to them.
So the class issues a challenge to the wearers of the dinks, a challenge that when accepted will prove just what the green cap boys amount to. We challenge the Frosh to meet us on Bovard field at the earliest possible date and do battle to the end— the freshmens' end to be sure.
Thomas H. Kuchel President, Sophomore Class, Letters, Arts and Sciences.

Eight Fraternities and Sororities Scheduled to Have El Rodeo Pictures Taken.
Continuing the progressive appointment system of photograph appointments, the El Rodeo studio in the basement of the Student TTnion is now open for appointments for pictures to be taken beginning Monday, October 21. Eight fraternities and sororities have been assigned photo appointments for next week.
Members of the sororities and fraternities scheduled for next week, must report to the studios for definite appointments immediately, according to Morton Morehouse, assistant editor in charge of photography. The groups whose appointments must be made at once are: Delta Zeta, Alpha Delta PI, Kappa Delta, Delta Delta Delta, Kappa Sigma, Pi Kappa Alpha, Tau Delta Phi and Phi Kappa Psi.
Because the demand for appointments has exceeded the expected number, appointments have been filled for four days in advance, Morehouse states.

Those houses to be photographed next week will be allowed seven days to have photographs completed, stat»d Morehouse. Unless appointments are made in advance, students will not be assured of sittings, he declared.
