If anyone on campus is so rare as to have an idea on improving any condition for women at S. C., there is time to drop the suggestion into the ballot box near the entrance to the student bookstore, before 3 p. m. today.
Although several ideas have been turned in, there is still an opportunity to see personal brainchildren in print on the women's page of the Daily Trojan tomorrow. The women's staff will consider all suggestions and investigate their possibilities.
No contribution will be too trivial for consideration, but names must be signed.

Tokyo Guarded
Army and navy forces converged on Tokyo Thursday morning to reenforce Emperor Hirohito’* control after:
A bloody uprising by young military extremists who assassinated Premier Keisuke Okada, Lord Saito, lord of privy seal; Gen. Jotaro Watanabe, inspector general of military education; Korekiyo Takahashi, minister of finance; and Admiral Soroku. Suzuki.
Finance Minister Korekiyo Takahashi was wounded. Private advices report he was killed.
Admiral Suzuki, grand chamber-lain, was wounded seriously.
Troops of the imperial body guard aided the emperor in regaining control while reenforcements sped from their garrisons to Tokyo and while thc men o’ war of the first and second fleets trained their guns on Tokyo, Yokohama, Kobe, and Osaka.
Situation Confused
With the political situation confused, troops patrolled Tokyo streets. General Kashii, Tokyo garrison commander, promised maintenance of public order, protection of private property, and ordered citizens to resume normal business activity.
Fumio Goto, former home minister. accepted appointment as acting premier, but resigned shortly afterward with surviving members of slain Premier Okada’s cabinet.
Foreign reports that the emperor was a virtual prisoner in his moat-encircled palace during the uprising were discredited. It was emphasized that the uprisings were definitely pro-imperial in character.

Architects Will Use Class Day To Decorate Building
ct
Kuhn, aid Leland Schmidt.
“We are going to practice what we preach,” quoth Arthur B. Weatherhead, dean of the College of Architecture and Fine Arts yesterday.
“And the whole thing means that on March 18, 19, and 20, the entire college will cut classes, to redecorate the Architecture building. This date has been decided upon as the time for the annual class day.”
Dean Weatherhead pointed out various decorations around the building, commenting that the work done has been accomplished by students in architecture and fine arts.
“Time was,” said Dean Weatherhead, “when we had some good looking decorations on the outside of the building, but as the elements have proved too much we lately gave the buildings a new coat of white paint in preparation for the class day. On this day, all the students will turn out and we are going to really work on the building until we can again be proud of the way it looks. We teach this sort of thing over here, so what could be more logical than doing the work ourselves?”
The architecture building, Is entirely temporary. Dean Weatherhead stated that plans are being drawn at the present time for the new building which is to be located on Exposition boulevard, opposite the museum building.
Since the present buildings have been in use by the future architects and craftsmen, lt hu been the most important tradition of the collegians to do their own decorating. The rafters around the patio have been painted with little designs and the top of the building around the edge of the roof is decorated with little figures which have been made by students in the arts and crafts.
“We are going to have a prettier little place that ever,” said Dean Weatherhead. “A sun dial is to be added, and other improvements are to be made. After the work has been completed, open house will be held over here. All our friends will be invited.”
It was learned that not only will the newly-decorated buildings be open for inspection but there will be a dance to which all students on the campus will be invited.
Debate teams of Southern California and Utah State university meet this afternoon in two platform decision contests to be held in Porter hall. Four groups of speakers will take part.

Having recently returned from a 950-mile walking trip in the Tyrol and an extensive tour through Europe, Wilder is being brought to the S. C. campus by Epsilon Phi. honorary English fraternity. Last year Epsilon Phi sponsored a lecture by the English author, Hugh Walpole.
Europe Toured
While in Europe, Wilder met Dr. Sigmund Trend, Pablo Picasso, Max Reinhardt, and Gertruds Stein. Referlng to the Salzburg festival the author says that Reinhardt would be ideally capable of producing a similar festival in this country.
Wilder graduated from Yale in 1920 and since that time he has gained a foremost place among American authors, as well as building a reputation tmong foreign men of letters. Arnold Bennett said of Wilder’s writing, “he has not been surpassed in the present epoch.”
Criticism Favorable
The latest contribution of this author is “Heaven’s My Destination.” A reviewer in the New York Herald Tribune said. “I suspect that there will be more discussions about this book than any other novel of the season ...”
BeHeving that the novel is declining as an artistic medium and that “drama will become predominant as the vehicle to succeed the narrative form,” Wilder ls planning to write a play.
