Tentative plans for the Trojan Knights’ Mardi Gras festival, traditional fall semester fling of the upperclassmen's service organization, are now being laid by president Hal Newell, who has chosen the night of Friday, October 18. as the date for the grand masquerade ball.
Under the name of the Panic Parade, the Knights’ social highlight of the first term was regularly an annual affair until 1930. when it was discontinued. Last year, the dance was again put on the university calendar and proved highly successful, with 400 couples in attendance.
Costumes To Get Prtxes No central theme will feature the 1935 Mardi Gras, Newell said. Dancers will be attired in brilliant costumes and masks of any and all descriptions, from horned devils to winged angels. Prizes will be award- j ed for the best costumes.
‘ Committeemen in charge of the Mardi Gras have decided to keep the cost of bids at a nominal sum —$1.50 per couple.’ Newell said. “It 1 is our intent to arrange this ball within the price range of every stu- I dent.”
As probable sites for the dance,! Knights have been considering the I Shrine ball room and the Riviera country club. Plans call for fraternities and campus organizations to have separate tables reserved for their parties.
Members Are Undecided Members of the committee of arrangements are as yet undecided about the orchestra that will be engaged to furnish music for the dancers.
“It will depend on what band wil lhave an open date on October 18," said Jim Krueger, general chairman. “We plan to hire a ‘big time’ orchestra, if any is available.” Tickets for the Mardi Gras will go on sale this week, with Knights and Squires acting as salesmen. Bids may also be obtained at the fraternity and sorority houses, as well as at the university book store in the Student Union.
Assisting Krueger in making arrangements are Ross Wattlett and Jack Privett. While developments progress during the next few days, Knights and Squires will be divided into committees to facilitate and augment the work, Newell said.

Oct. 7— Despite the action of the council ol the League of Nations in movina to apply economic penalties to Ital;. because of her unjustified invasion of Ethiopia, Emperor Haile S^'assie I tonight rushed his nulitarv propar-! ations and prepared to fight to ? standstill with each of the Italian columns advancing from thc coas. towards his upland capital.
The emperor had little hope th.1 League will be able to restrain Premier Benito Mussolini and hi? fascist legions and he did not share the opinion of some of his foreign advisers that French diplomacy might induce Italy to call a halt now that she has taken Aduwa, avenging the disaster of 1896 when 8.000 Italians were slaughtered ln the frontier town by Hordes of wild Ethiopian warriors.
Haile Selassie's war plans ail hinge on taking advantage of nature— utilizing to the the fullest the trackless mountain forests which guard the approaches to his capital.
He moved 30.000 men up to Gon-dar to guard *he approaches to Lake Tana from the Italian columns now investing Aksum, in the north, after their capture yesterday of Aduwa. He sent south, to Ogaden Province, a part of his own prised imperial guard—his crack troop? who have been drilled by European soldiers and are armed with modem foreign weapon*. He induced the French to strengthen their guard at Diredawa and urged them to keep Ethiopia's only railway, that which leads from Addis Ababa to the coast in French Somaliland, through Diredawa. open and running all the time.
