JOBLESS FIGHT FOR LOUISIANA GOVERNORSHIPS
Six Hats In Ring In Mad Mixup Over Two Offices In South.
BATON ROUGE. La., Oct 16— (UP)—Resplendent with three governors, two acting lieutenant-governors and a third ready to enter the scramble, the state capital presented all the glamor of a tlx ring circus tonight.
Latest developments in the political turmoil came from Shreveport, where L. D. Smith, an unemployed man “grabbed himself an office’’ by being sworn ln as lieutenant-governor.
“I am not related to any af the present governors and am not on the state payroll,” Smith said ln a formal statement. “That qualifies me for the office. I will go to Baton Rouge tomorrow and assume my duties.”
At the same time a grocer, E. H. Reed, telephoned the Shreveport Times announcing that Ue was going to take the oath of lieutenant-governor also. ’'We have three governorsand only two lieutenant-governors,” Reed said. “Figure it out. Every governor needs a lieutenant-governor and I am going to take the oath and qualify as ‘governor’ Walter L Aldrich's second in command.” Aldrich, unemployed until he had himself sworn ln as goversor yesterday, is also a Shreveport citizen.
The whole thing . started over whether Huey P. Long, governor for the past two years, hadn’t lost his right to hold office when (Continued On Page Two)
PEACE PACT IS EXPECTED
American Participation In Controversy Asked By League of Nations.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 15—(UP) — Hope for a peaceful solution of the Japanese-Chinese crisis grew stronger here today despite a diplomatic mixup which culminat-ed in a vote of the League of Nations.
On the surface there was a serious diplomatic situation at Geneva when, despite forceful Japanese objection, the council voted 13 tol to ask Prentiss Gilbert, United States contact man in the League capital, to sit as a delegate-observ-er In Ihe council's study of the dispute between China and Japan.
Japan's objection to United States participation in the League discussions seemed based partly on a desire to prevent an absolutely united front among the world powers—the members of the League council on one hand and tha United States, not a member of the League but possibly the most potent force in Pacific affairs, on the other. There was also an element of sensitiveness among Japanese at inquiries that have been made direct to her.
For Field Trip
The first of a series of six field trips will be made by the general botany classes Saturday when a group Ipaves for El Se-gtindo and Playa del Rey at 9 a.m. under the supervision of Mrs. Tema Clare, George H. Johnstone and Andrew C. Life.
Plant life in the salt marshes and the sand dunes will be studied in its respective habitat. Although the class ls not very far Into the work, the practical study and identification of plants are invaluable for later work, according to the faculty advisors.
Participation in four of the six trips Is one of the requisites of the class, nnless It is impossible for the student to take the trips.

VANCOUVER, B. C„ Ocl. 16— (UP)—The American Federation of Labor swung its powerful support today behind a stand for legalization of 2.75 per cent beer at the next session of congress.
Action came without debate and without a record vote, the convention, however, defeated two motions which sought to give labor's support for repeal of the 18th amendment and the Volstead act..
As the convention drew near its close, it unanimously re-elected William Green president by acclaim in a burst of cheering. All other officers of the federation also were reelected.
Cincinnati won over Washing* ton, D. C., as the site of the 1932 convention. The vote was about 2 to 1.
The convention refused to ask repeal of the 18th amendment, or its absolute nullification. Instead, it demanded 2.76 per cent beer (by weight), through modification of the Volstead act.
Labor will use Its full power— its mailed fist—to secure legal beer, just as it will use every influence to advance its unemployment relief program. Legal beer will be demanded of the next congress.

Call Issued By Morgenthau For Rodeo Payments
“The 1932 edition of El Rodeo, Trojan yearbook, may be unnecessarily delayed by the failure of 120 campus organizations to make first payments on their space ln the annual,” said Mac Morgen-thau, business manager, when he issued a plea for cooperation ln the collection of installments.
‘•We are not trying to Intimidate anyone Into meeting their obligations. All we want Is the payment of the proper amount at the specified time. If this 1» not done, there may be a serious delay In publication as the result,'’ stated Morgenthau further.
The deadline for the firat payments was last Saturday, but due to the fact that only 25 organizations have paid, it will be extended to next Monday.
The amounts are receivable in the El Rodeo office, 211 Student Union.

INTO COMA; END IS FEARED NEAR
“Plans are being formulated for the third drive on the campus of the Community chest,” was the statement Issued yesterday by Alton Garrett, campua chairman.
This will be the third consecutive year that the University of Southern California has participated in this campaign. This year the main object ls to enlist as many pledges and subscriptions aa possible rather than to concentrate on the fund in the matter of dol-lara and cents.
The campus campaign committee has been formulating plana to have the drive completed by the first week ln November. This Is the date which has been set by the campaign headquarters for the start of the house to house campaign.
NO QUOTA SET
No definite quota has been set for the student body so far this year, but it la hoped that the quota will at least equal or surpass that of last year, stated Garrett.
The committee as approved by university officials ls as follows; Marjoria Edick. sororities; Richard Tilden, fraternities; Billie Rogers, organizations; “Chic” Clay, buildings; Emil Steck, dormitories and residence halls; Gordon Klme, posters; Phyllis Doran, publicity; and Jane McFee, secretary to the committee.
CHEST GROUP TO MEET
There will be a meeting of the community chest committee today at 2 p.m. in room 234 Student Union. The following people must be present: Marjfftia Edick, Dick Tilden, Billie Rogers, “Chic” Clay, Emil Steck, Gordon Klme, Phyllis Doran, and Jane McFee.
feet through four games this season, the foxy old mallard. Doc Spears, has his sophomore eleven pointing for tomorrow's fracas With only Oregon State and Ucla remaining on their schedule after they meet fhe Thundering herd, the Ducks will not only be fight ing tomorrow to defeat the Trojans but also to win the conference title. With this in mind it may be expected then that the Lemon and Green players will be “playing over their heads.'’
NEW DEFENSE
During the past week, although he has not completely neglected his offense, Head Man .lones has spent the larger part of hls time tutoring the Cardinal snd Gold squad on his new defensive formation. With Mark Tepiple, Joe Lillard, and Leighton Gee In the Oregon backfleld able to toss passes from the right side with no mean ability, and John Watts, south-pswed half, shooting them from the left side, Jones realizes the strength and danger of such a set-up and hss been drilling his men accordingly.
Although Jim Musick has not been participating in the scrimmage this week, lt is more than probable that he will start against the invading Ducks. In case the Trojan mentor decides not to start his regular full, either Dick Barber, who the Head Man has with the addition of Gen. Plutar-been using a great deal in practices this week, or Homer Griffith will get the call.
JONES UNDECIDED
When asked whether or not he would start John Baker, Coach Jones replied, “1 don't know." So. the Trojan's regular running guard may have to wait until the California game before playing liis first conference tilt. Rosy Rosen berg of course will be In the left guard position in case Johnny remains on the side-lines, and Tay Brown will be present ia Rosy’s left tackle berth.
In the backfleld there may appear another change. Gordon Clark, who haa been doing a good job of replacing Tom Mallory at left half, may start tomorrow because of Mallory's injured leg. Mallory has been having a tough time this week trying to get his (Continued On Page Three)

another blow at the dominance of the Catholic church in Spain. Controversy over the church question caused the resignation of Nlceto Alcala Zamora as president yesterday, and the firat acts of the Azana government fully confirmed forecasts that the new president would follow a strong-handed policy.
