Dig Will Raise Money for Fund
Gymnasium Dance To Take Place Monday Evening; Schuman To Play
Proceeds of the Monday night
“dig” in the women’s gymnasium will be donated to the fund being raised to send three outstanding Trojan swimmers to the N.CA.A. meet at Harvard the week-end of March 30, Phyllis Norton announced last night.
Jimmy Gilhula is being sent to
the meet by the associated students, but the other two. Gene Fletcher and Frank Kurtz, who will be essential to put S.C. in one of the leading positions, must be sent through the support of loyal Trojans. For this cause, a charge of 25 cents for both men and women will be made at the associated student “dig” scheduled for Monday night, March 25.
U. C. L. A. and Stanford last yeai sent, through student support, track teams to the I.C.4-A and the Drake relays, both teams bringing home the championships. With this . in mind, Phyllis Norton, social chairman in charge of all-univer-| sity “digs,” has expressed herself willing to stand squarely behind this campaign by contributing the admission proceeds of Mondays’ dance to the cause.
Trojan colors of cardinal and gold fraternity offered their house for j will be used in decorating the gym an open house dance tonight. An orchestra, not announced at press time last night, will be secured to play, and a crowd as large as that which attended the Sigma Nu open house affair of last week is expected.
Team To Aid
Almost simultaneously all members of the swim team united with Coach Fred Cady in organizing an exhibition swimming meet for this afternoon in the Trojan pool, in which Gilhula will attempt to further cut down the marks which he created Wednesday when he smashed 13 American records. Fletcher also will make a record-breaking attempt in a shorter free-style race, while Kurtz will give a diving exhibition. A small admission is to be charged students who attend this exhibition.
All during the morning hours funds are to be collected from students who will be expressing confidence in Troy's championship-bound swimmers by donating to the fund.
Student leaders expressed their confidence that the student bodv would contribute enough in tody's drive to assure the sending of the pair, in addition to Gilhula. to Harvard. At the same time it wp.s pointed out that no attempt would be made to persuad" adrr’in’st’-a-rion authorities from deviating from the temporary policy of curtailed atretic financing.
President von KleinSmid's announcement, made after consultation with members of the athletic finance committe°. also put to death a’l rumprs that the track team, golf stars, or tennis veterans wou’d compete in eastern nationally-import-ant competitions this year.
to hold an exhibition 6wimming meet this afternoon in the S. C. pool and an open house dance tonight at the Delta Chi fraternity house to add to the funds necessary to send a team of Trojan swimmers in an attempt to win the national championship.
Phyllis Norton, vice-president of the A.S.U.S.C., was contacted and it was immediately agreed that all funds received at the door in Monday night's all-university dig would go to the fund for the eastern swimming trip. Other members of the emergency committee aside from Haugh and Miss Norton are Pete Cavaney, president of the Knights; Fran Cislini. all-university senior class president; and Ed Jones, president of the Interfratemity council.
Temporary Policy
The concerted financial drive was begun when Pres. Rufus B. von KleinSmid announced yesterday that a temporary policy by the administration not to finance any eastern athletic trips this year because of insufficient funds as provided in the university budget. An exception was made in the case of Jimmy Gilhula, S. C. free-style swimming star, who will be sent with Coach Fred Cady to the national meet, March 29-30, it was announced.
With this declaration of the curtailed athletic financial policy for the remainder of the year, student leaders immediately organized the financial drive which is planned to provide funds to send two other swimming team members. Gene Fletcher, free-style sprint star, and Frank Kurtz. Olymoic games diving veteran. with Gilhula.
Immediate success greeted the attempt by the emergency committee, when members of Delta Chi
for the dance. Prior to this year, all-university dances were held sans decoration of any kind, but Phyllis Norton has started the custom ta several similar affairs both this semester and last.
Gerda Boorse and Letitia Lytle, assisting Phyllis Norton as her committee of arrangements, have secured Walt Schuman’s orchestra for the affair.
Riviera Cinema To Be Shown Monday
“Students and faculty members will be given an opportunity to enjoy the beauties of the Italian Riviera without incurring the expenses incident to travel,” said Dr. Giorgio Curit, Italian professor, referring to the assembly to be given ta Bovard auditorium Monday morning at 9:55 o'clock.
Motion pictures of Italy as it is today will be shown. The films were taken in Italy by the Institute L. U.CJE. and are comparable to a march of events, showing activities and progress of the people of that country, explained Dr. Curti.
