In order that work may be completed on schedule, no deadlines will be shifted.
Regardless of the number of photographs taken ,the studios will leave the campus Friday, the report continued. No permission will be given for students to report to the downtown offices of Austin studios foliate sittings, as this would materially retard the completion of the book.
Several students have postponed sittings because of failure to wear formal clothing. No more postponements will be allowed, and students failing to bring the required costume to the studio will forfeit tlieir appointments, it was stated.
The Friday deadline applies also to all student body and class officers, and to members of the various editorial staffs.
Les Hatch, business manager of El Rodeo, reports that some organizations requesting pages in the book have failed to make a formal reservation and to leave a deposit at the business office. Owing to the demand for pages, and to the ruling of the organizations committee, only organizations which have turned in their lists of members and ofllcers to the organizations committee will be allowed to reserve pages, and reservations will be cancelled if a deposit is not made, or payment in full not completed before February 1, Hatch says.

Hollywoodland (s »ampg), Jan. 13 — If the number of auto accidents lteep on increasing in Los Angeles there won't be any need of taking the next census. Merely regretting the situation without doing something about it is as useful as picking a false set of teeth. What ls needed is action!
A simple remedy for the traffic problem would be for the city council to pass an ordinance prohibiting women drivers from crossing intersections until the third bell rings.

Social Dates Must Be Put On Calendar
Applications Are Now Being Filed With Dorothie Smith For Next Semester.

Dates may be applied for either by seeing Miss Smith personally inV her oflice during chapel hour, or by leaving a note on her desk to which she will reply whether or not the date is open.

Sociological Society Told Of Industry
Dr. Vincent Discusses “Five Modern Industrial Experiments in Relations Field.”
“Five Modern Industrial Experiments in the Field of Industrial Relations" was the topic discussed by Dr. Melvin J. Vincent of the sociology faculty at the meeting of Alpha Kappa Delta, honorary sociological society, held Friday evening at the home of the Rev. and Mrs. Paul B. Elliott.
The flve examples were selected by the speaker because they present the most advanced and representative plans in the field of industrial relationships today and represent approximately the greatest advance that has been made so far in “socio-industrial co-operation.” "The plans are significant because of the fact that they have generally succeeded in lessening social distance between employers and employees," said Doctor Vincent.
The Hart, Schaffner, and Marx plan was the flrst experiment cited by the speaker. Since its inception in 1911, the plan has succeeded in building up an admirable code of Industrial law, declared Doctor Vincent. It is formed by both employers and employees through the media of conferences.
Because it has been called the greatest industrial experiment of our age, the Baltimore and Ohio plan, commonly called the B. and O plan, was chosen as the second example. This represents, on a large scale, trade uniou co-operation with th# management.

BIG BASKETBALL RALLY SET FOR FRIDAY CHAPEL
New Coaching Staff Will Be Presented T o Student Body By Sam Newman.
As premiere for the S. C. basketball season prefacing our flrst home game when we meet Stanford Friday night, the rally Friday morning at 9:55 In Uovard is to constitute the formal presentation of the S. C.’s new coaching staff for basketball.
Coach Sam Barry will be Introduced to the campus, as will his assistant, Forrest Twogood, both of whom are new additions to the 8. C. athletic coaching staff. Coach Barry was formerly Director of Athletics at the University of Iowa for the past seven years.
As all-American forward of two years ago during his captaincy of the Iowa basketball team, Twogood gained national recognition which resulted in his recent engagement at S. C. He is at present also intercollegiate coach of the Los Angeles Athletic club.
Both men will make short speeches as will Captain Johnny Lehners who has been prevailed upon to represent the S. C. team before the student body. Inasmuch as the team has already seen action the past week-end at California, Lehners will be able to give attitude and possibilities.
“This being the .first real basketball rally of the season, and the final one of this semester, we expect every Trojan to be present to aid ln honoring our new coaching staff and the team," stated Sam Newman, chairman of the rally committee who will introduce the speakers. “In addition to the formal presentation, the committee has secured the Biltmore trio to fill the remainder of the program."
Iu addition to the popular songs presented by Earl Hurtnett’s trio, there will be several songs and yells led by Gordon Pace. Due to the length of tho rally, the program will begin flve minutes early, at 9:56, and will extend a few minutes over the regular chapel time. The 10:25 classes will meet on time and ample time will be allowed students to reach them without tardiness.

WILBUR SPEAKS TO S1U0ENI DELEGATES
Two hundred and fifty delegates to the llfth annual national student federation convention at Lelaud Stan* ford ‘University hear and saw Hay Lyman Wilbur, secretary of the interior, and president on leavo of absence ot the university, address them while he was in Washington.
Tnable to lea^e Washington. Secretary Wilbur had a "talkie” made of his address to the students. He advised them not to take themselves too seriously.

Rare volumes showing early methods of printing and binding can be found at the motion picture museum of S. C. in the basement of the School of Law. A leather bound Bible, almost as large as a modern unabridged dictionary, printed in German in 1736, is one of the earliest examples of this type of binding.
The English Book of Common Prayer, about which there has been much recent discussion, is represented by a volume dated 1669. A personal prayer book written by hand on vellum in three languages by Queen Elizabeth of England, according to J. Tarbotton Armstrong, curator of the museum, also may be seen. Showing the type of illustrations used in the time of Shakespeare is a wood cut which was employed in one of the early editions of his works.
While it bears the fairly recent date of 1803, the History of Cambridge colleges is quite a rare book and an authentic reference on the early years of Cambridge colleges.
Among the novelties now on display at the museum are a complete set of ivory dominoes so small that they are contained in a box smaller than the flrst joint of one’s thumb, a pen, or quill holder formerly used by Marie Antoinette, and a watch case that the curator of the museum said dated back to the seventeenth century. In those days watches were too thick to be worn in pockets and this case was made to be worn as one wears a watch tob today. The works themselves were very noisy, making it necessary to have a pin in the case in o/der to stop the watch at night.
