Weaklings? - No, Says Doctor
* * * * * * * * * * * * Trojans Are Physically Fit
The college man of 1935 is no weakling in the estimation of Dr. R. E. O’Conner, medical doctor for the Chrysler Motor company. Furthermore the excellent physique of the average coUege student is far superior in comparison with that of the man In the street.
All-around physical fitness seems to go hand in hand with intellectual ability of the campus, intimates the ! doctor.
The 90 S.C. men who were ex-i amined by Dr. O'Conner early this ■ week were part of 100 employees i prepared for several days of ex-! tensive inventory in the Chrysler ! motor works. Only three out of 90 men examined were rejected and ; then only for minor defects that might possibly result in injury later.
Employed by the Chrysler Motor company as examining physician for all employees who enter the plant. Dr. O’Conner has examined thousands of workmen entering the employment of the company. Al-
though many of the men hired are in fine physical condition a large number lack perfect physical health.
Speaking for the Chrysler Motor company, Cox, personnel manager, remarked upon the satisfaction which will come from the employment of college men. He was pleased with the job of the S.C. employment bureau in finding this large group of college men in so short a time. They will undoubtedly prove more satisfactory than the men who might be employed outside of college ranks, was his belief.
A four-day inventory starting today is the task assigned to this group of students.
Forty thousand parts may be found in the department and should, though many may be nuts and bolts, tax the strength of any hundred men. With 85 perfect specimens making a majority of the 100 college men employed, the parts department should prove to be a pushover.
Pope Approves Italy’s Mandate
Viewpoint To Be Revealed Tomorrow in Issue of Catholic Magazine
Band Will Have Day’s Vacation From Practice
The Trojan band will receive a day’s rest tomorrow, Ona Conrad, manager, announced yesterday.
“Because the fellows have been co-operating in such a good manner, and have gradually improved throughout the year, they will be given a vacation tomorrow but wUl resume drill next week in preparation for the Stanford game,” Conrad said.
The program for the game with Stanford will probably be carried out after the same manner as that presented at the Cal game Saturday. Upon the arrival of the Trojan band in Berkeley, it was put through a spirited drill on its own stunt and was then taken to the university campus, where it was introduced to the California aggregation.
ROME, Friday, Nov, 1. — «J.P> — Pope Plus early today came forward squarely to favor of granting Italy a mandate over Ethiopia.
In the view of the holy father the mandate should be granted to Italy to avoid "more dangerous conflagration.”
The pope’s viewpoint will be revealed in a leading editorial in the next iesue of the Civlllta Cattolica. The publication will appear Saturday.
Pope Writes Editorial
The Civilita Cattolica is the leading Catholic publication of .the world and its most important editorials are written under the direct supervision of the holy father.
The editorial will contend, in outspoken fashion, that the League of Nations should not hesitate any longer to grant a mandate over Ethiopia to Italy if it wishes to prevent still greater conflagrations in Europe and perhaps in the whole world.
Equal Consideration Asked
The editorial will point out that Italy is entitled to a mandate, If not by the considerations of strict justice, at least by considerations of equity, because Italy received nothing in the “fat distribution” of ! mandates over the ex-German colonies at the end of the World war. Other powers received colonies at the end of the great war but Italy received none.
The editorial will conclude by urging Catholics of France and Britain to strive for a broader understanding of Italy's necessities.
Parking Lot Employees Named by Head of Crew
Workers for the parking lots sponsored by the associated students were released yesterday by the office of the comptroller. This group will work Saturday ln connection with the U.CL-A.-Califomia game.

Debate Teams To Compete in North
S.C. will send three debate teams north to attend the convention of Western Speech Teachers to be held at San Francisco from November 25 to 27.

Groman and Bell will leave on November 20, to debate at Stanford, University of California, Santa Clara, and St. Mary’s before they continue north to the convention.
Both Groman and Bell have had two years experience on the debating squad and are regarded as top-notch by their colleagues. Groman ls captain of the squad. Bell, before coming to S.C., was national champion in junior college of all divisions, Including oratory, debating, and extemooraneous speaking.
Tryouts for the woman’s team will be held at a later date.
