INITIATES DENT OFFICERS To The Editor Westwood Village, March 28: To the Editor of the Daily Trojan: Alma Mammy is putting on the Hitz plenty out in Westwood. By the time she finishes her Spring cleaning about $6,-000,000 will have been spent getting her educational acres ready for her crop of wiseacres. Most of this money will probably be spent keeping her campus fenced in to prevent her aspirin-minded children from detouring to the seashore. Westwood Village reeks with class. Even the opening night of a vegetable stand looks like a movie world premier with its batteries of lights, jazz bands and rooting section. Liveried attendants go about spraying visitors with Thousand Island dressing and passing out cabbage heads as souvenirs of one exciting night. They do things big out in Westwood. It even took them two days to formally dedicate U. C. L. A. By dedication is meant that alma mammy was formally taken away from the real est a subdividers and given over to the state of California.

RENEE LAMBERT’S ACTING APPLAUDED Good Direction, Poor Cast Noted In “Enchanted April,” Junior Class Play. By STAN EWENS When four women decide to go to the Mediterranean for a vacation anything or everything Is liable to happen. And in Kane Campbell’s Ihe Lnclianted April" everything did happen. In this case, which was the annual junior class play presented Friday evening, the four women were Mrs. Lotty Wilkins, the dutiful blotted-out wife of a London solicitor; Mrs. Rose Ar-buthnot, the neglected, lonely wife of a writer of very popular historical romances; Lady Caroline Dester, the only daughter of a very distinguished family; and Mrs. William Fisher, who is quite sure she is the last of the Victorians. They rent a villa so that they' may be alone, but life without lius-1 bands or sweetheart is not what it is supposed to be, and so when said husbands and sweetheart arrive, there is great rejoicing. ACTING IS POOR The play itself is a very light comedy with very little plot. In fact, there is very little to recommend it to any acting group, and the junior class cast did not add to its merit. The direction was faultless, but the cast, as a whole, was not equal to the task of making a play go over on the merit of the acting alone. Renee Lambert, as Mrs. Fisher, gave the most outstanding performance of the evening. There was a definiteness to her clear-cut characterization of the woman who lived in the generation of the past and her every action and gesture helped this illusion. Her lines were read with a dry humor that never failed to get over to her audience. PHLEGER SHOWS POLISH Second to Miss Lambert was Frederick Phleger, as Mellersh Wilkins. He was the polished English gentleman at all times, and even in the screamingly funny scene In the second act when he is forced to leave the bath clad only In a towel, he did not lose that savior-faire necessary tor the portrayal of his character. Voice and actions alike were all that could be expected. Thomas Briggs, as portrayed by Ray Brooks, was very artificial and stiff. He failed to create the impression of any worldliness or sophistication that one would expect from an artist, Helen Pargellis, playing the part of Lady Caroline, also failed to come ui> to expectations. She lacked the life necessary to put over her characterization. Doris Henry (Lotty Wilkins) worked under the difficult handicap of a very bad case of tonsili-tls; and in spite of the fact that on the day before she could not talk above a whisper, she gave a very satisfactory performance. Virginia Barber was good in the small role of the Italian servant, as was Jerome Ehrlich. Other members of the cast were Gilbert Gagos, Mary Reasoner, and Elinor Wilhoit. Chapter President Departs Saturday For B.G.S. Meeting Representing Beta Gamma Sigma, national honorary commerce fraternity, at Its biannual convention April 1 and 5, Roy Maginnis, president of the local chapter, is leaving this morning for Chicago via the Southern Pacific. The two day convention is to be held in the Morrison hotel and will be presided over by the grand president, Mr. Roswell McCrea. Representatives from ap proximately thirty chapters will be there to discuss national business and elect new national off.-cers. Roy Maginnis stated that some of the most prominent men in the ecor.omic field will address the body, including Mr. Cox of the University of Washington and Mr. Heilman of Northwestern university. Following the convention the representatives will be entertained by the University of Chicago. Mr. Maginnis will return to Southern California at the close of the spring vacation. HONOR SYSTEM PUT UNDER FIRE A compilation of the results of a questionnaire on the honor system distributed amonf the students of St. Lawrence university shows that, of the 227 who returned ballots, 144 are dissatisfied with the present system and are in favor of changing It, while 77 wish to keep it. Of the 144 who desire a change, 84 voted to abolish the system entirely, and 60 preferred to modify it. The vote was taken in the college of letters and science, and only about one third of the student body voted. den Bears could generate was 26. The Trojans tasted unexpected victory in the opening event of the meet when Cliff Halstead defeated "Red” Mossman, who was doped to win one of the California first places. Mossman finished second. The time was 4:24.4. WYKOFF DOES 9.8 Sons of Troy then proceeded to make clean sweeps in the 100-yard dash and the 440. Frank Wykoff, the "Glendale flash," won the century in 9.8s. Vic Williams captured the quarter In 49.8s. Captain L. Pogolotti brought the 10,000 California fans to their feet when he nosed out Jeddy Welsh of S. C. in the high hurdles. Pogolotti’s time of 14.7s, was three-tenths of a second from lhe world’s record. The Trojans turned the track meet into virtual rout when they made a clean sweep in the two-mile. Fred Henderson had been favored to win and he led for seven laps, only to fall behind at the final stretch. Fitzmaurlce won for S. C. in the fair time of 9m 54.8s. Daniels and Patterson took second and third, respectively. / SNIDER TAKES JAVELIN Snider upset the dope for the Trojans again when he nosed out Curtice and Churchill of California In the javelin. Snider’s winning throw of 197 ft., 11 in., bent Churchill’s best effort by inches. Wykoff won his second event of the day in the 220 ln 21.5s as did Bob Hall ln taking the discus with a toss of 148 ft., 11 3-8 in. Carls pulled the unexpected when he lead all competitors to the tape in the low hurdles ln 23.9s. Barber and Paul finished one-two in the broad jump, tha winner leaping 24 ft., 2 3-8 ln. Van Osdel, who leaped 6 ft., 7 1-4 In. in the L. A. A. C. meet last week disappointed by failing to do 5 ft., 11 1-2 In., losing the event to Rice of the Bears. The most prevalent suggestion for modification was the procto system operated under faculty control. This was also given as the alternative for the present system in the majority of cases where the students voted for direct abolition. Among . the other suggestions for modification were, increasing the penalty, and providing a court composed of both students and faculty members to try violators detected under the proctor system. A system of student monitors was suggested as well as a general tightening of the present rules—St. Lawrence University N. S. F. A. News Correspondent. FLYNN WILL EDIT ALUMNI REVIEW THEY LIKE ’EM HEAVY Dori, French West Indies, March 30—A beauty contest held among the 15 tribes of this region has been won by a damsel of 18 who weighs 275 pounds.

A. T.E. INITIATES DENT OFFICERS
To The Editor
Westwood Village, March 28: To the Editor of the Daily Trojan: Alma Mammy is putting on the Hitz plenty out in Westwood. By the time she finishes her Spring cleaning about $6,-000,000 will have been spent getting her educational acres ready for her crop of wiseacres. Most of this money will probably be spent keeping her campus fenced in to prevent her aspirin-minded children from detouring to the seashore.
Westwood Village reeks with class. Even the opening night of a vegetable stand looks like a movie world premier with its batteries of lights, jazz bands and rooting section. Liveried attendants go about spraying visitors with Thousand Island dressing and passing out cabbage heads as souvenirs of one exciting night.
They do things big out in Westwood. It even took them two days to formally dedicate U. C. L. A. By dedication is meant that alma mammy was formally taken away from the real est a subdividers and given over to the state of California.
Yours for putting on the Hitz,
