"In view of the drastic conditions of unemployment now prevailing and the need for public funds to meet the sltuntlon, the University of Southern California Is Issuing an Invitation to St. Mary's college to play a football game In the Los Angeles coliseum Dec. 20 for the benefit of an unemployment relief fund ln Los Angeles.
"It Is against the policy of the university to play post-season games, but because of the extremity of the circumstances regarding the unemployment situation, which has been brought to our attention through representative civic and relief organizations of the community, the university believes that It ls fitting to stage such a contest. Tho game, of course, will not mark the establishment of a precedent for such contests ln the future.’ *
