Southern California's improving [Trojan eleven will meet the Washington Huskies in the annual homecoming classic on the Coliseum turf Saturday. Although there will be no e hampionsnips involved, foot-'

Mock Murder Triad
Featuring the revival of old-time ■kits, the first banquet ever sponsored by the College of Architecture and Fine Arts devoted entirely to its alumni will be held tonight in the exhibition hall of the architectural building.
Composing a major item on the evening’s program, the skits, which will caricature and satirize architecture, will be resurrected from ones which have been given in past years when the college was host to tha American Institute of Architecture. They will be enacted by members of the faculty and present students.
Roy Kelly, who has practiced architecture in Hawaii and designed many of the buildings on the Islands, will be the principal speaker. Carl Denny will be toastmaster.
“It is hoped that from this a«-•emblage we will be able to establish a permanent alumni organization." Dean Arthur C. Weatherhead said yesterday.
Court was in session at the S.C. school of law.
In one room a man who had theoretically murdered a man who had never existed was being held for trial by a iudge who was not a judge. Trained witnesses were called upon to testify by a prosecuting attorney who was not an official of the State, and were cross-examine^ by a defense attorney who had not been admitted to the bar.
Similar paradoxes were being enacted simultaneously in several other sections of the school of law Representatives for the defense and prosecution were pleading to have testimony stricken from the records, were objecting to testimony as "illegal and irrelevant,” and were making sarcastic references to one another's ability.
At. the end of the trials, the judges invariably cast off their judicial dignity and sighed, "All right, fellows, we’ll review the case tomorrow.”
Court was in session at the S.C. School of Law—but the trials were mock trials which had been inaugurated several years ago to afford embryonic lawyers the opportunity to practice actual oourt procedure.

School of Law Reception Will Be Tomorrow
When the togs blaze high in the fireplace at the homecoming day reception of the school of law, to be given in the lobby of the Law building tomorrow afternoon, many prominent court judges will be among the alumni who have returned to their former haunts.
All superior court judges in Los Angeles, as well as judicial dignitaries from the municipal court and court of appeal for the Los Angeles district, have been invited to attend the reception, it was announced this week. A large number of these persons are alumni of the School of Law.
Governor Merriam will remain ,or. the campus until time for the men’s football banquet, at which he is to be an honored guest.
Alumni park, although having existed in portion since construction of Doheny library in 1929, did not take its present form until late last spring, when the last private buildings were removed from its southwest corner. It is now covered by grass, young trees, hedges, and neatly-laid brick walks.
In the centei or the park is a fountain pool 30 feet in diameter, above which stands extensive statuary that was sculptured last summer and dedicated three weeks ago.
Alumn^park Ls bordered by University a'venue, 36th street, Hoover boulevard, and 35th place.

In keeping with his policy, Roberts will not divulge the nature of the £tunt until practice Saturday morning.

To Zeta Beta Tau's "Homecoming Handicap” went the first fraternity award, while Alpha Chi Omega took the top place in the sorority contest. The Delta Gamma sorority display of “From the Darkness Into the Light” was judged most symbolic of homecoming.
Alpha Gams Win Trophy
Alpha Gamma Delta, with .another yacht harbor scene, was given the trophy for the most beautiful house decoration. Phi Kappa Psi was decided to be the most humorous in the judgment of the awards committee, with Sigma Phi Delta's “Reopening of the Trojan Mine” showing the most originality in ita makeup.
With Dr. Frank F. Barham as chairman, the committee judging the decorated Greek houses which line both sides of fraternity row was composed of Elmer P. Bromley, general chairman of homecomiitf T" Prof. Roy Johnson of the S.C. School of Architecture: Lewis K.
