DEADLINE FOR PROOFS IS SEE
January 17 Is Last Day, Or Pictures Will Not Be Included, States Editor.
Ml seniors in Law, Commerce, Letters, Arts, and Sciences, and other campus colleges, must return their proofs of El Kodeo pictures to Austin Studios before January 17, or the pictures will not be included in the yearbook.
This is the statement of Morton Morehouse, assistant editor, who declared that Friday, January 17, will be the final date upon which members of professional or honorary fraternities may have their individual photographs taken.
Members of all professional and honorary fraternities are urged by Morehouse to make their appointments with the studios in the Student Union immediately, as few vacancies exist. Students who break appointments, he declares, will have their dates cancelled, and no new ones will , be granted. The deadline will be rigidly observed, as Austin Studios will leave the campus on the scheduled date. Students who do not return j proofs within the week allowed by the studios will not be granted an extension of time, as organization pages are now in the process of being made up, and all pictures must be finished | by the downtown studios and returned to the El Kodeo staff before February 1.
Following the close of activities at tlie campus studios, the ofllcial El Kodeo photographers will establish headquarters at Senior Dental College for three days. No students from campus colleges will be allowed to be photographed at the Dental studios, however.
Although many more pictures have beeu taken this year than in any previous term, Morehouse says, fewer proofs have been returned. Unless these proofs are returned the fraternity, sorority and senior sections will show many students omitted from their places.

Council Recommends Postponement Of Hell Week Until After Finals.
There will be no Hell Week after the final exams if fraternities on the campus act upon the recommendation of the Inter-Fraternity council Hell-Week committees. Fred Pierson, Hell Week chairman, acting for the professional houses; and Glenn Johnson, acting for the social houses, have decided that the two groups should be Included under the one ruling.
The bad effect of the strain of Hell Week during the period of final examinations will be reflected upon the rating of the houses themselves through the lowered scholarship of the initiates, they pointed out.
Action on thc proposal will be taken when the Inter-fraternity council meets next Wednesday night. The entire meeting will be devoted to consideration of the problem of regulating the period of physical initiation vitli most fraternities precede their formal induction ceremonies.

Dr. Woellner scorned the complacent, smug attitude of the group of people who glorify the "good old times" and compared them to the pharisees who crucified Christ because he preached progress. The speaker suggested that the modern world use past experience as a foundation for future advancement and not as a block to new ideas.
Because of the numerous inventions and facilities of the twentieth century, Dr. Woellner declared it the "greatest epoch in the history of the world." He particularly urged the youth of today to feel confident in their abilities and in the age in which they were living.

HOOPSTERS LEAVE FOR INITIAL GAME WITH CALIFORNIA
Fifteen Men Comprise Squad Taken North For Conference Opener.
By TED HAWKINS
Carrying the hopes that this may be another season for Troy to upset the basketball aspirations of the Golden Bears. Southern California left last night for Oakland to play Coach “Nibs” Price's squad in a two-game series as a conference opener for both schools.
Two years ago the Cardinal and Gold men snatched a championship from the waiting hands of the California team, and Coach Sam Barry’s aggregation may duplicate the performance this year. Southern California has an Indeterminate standing even after winning from Arizona, as there is no means of comparing the strength of tbe Wildcats with the University of Kansas team which took three easy Bet-ups from the northerners.
BEARS LOSE REGULARS Both teams have evaluated themselves as the under dogs In the contest, and Judging from a comparison of stories the game should determine which is the lower. As final reports from Berkeley show that injuries and ineligibility would hamper the Blue and Gold players, Southern California’s chances rise.
Loss of Captain Perry Ten Eyck to the opposition will weaken California considerably. Due to scholastic difficulties, the versatile player will be definitely out of the game until reexamination time. Meanwhile, his loss
