Jones’ Order Bars Squad From Centennial ‘Girl Shows’ at Dallas
Schindler Still on Shelf
Reach St. Louis in Morning, Short Practice at Champaign Today
By Phil Daniel
ABOARD TROJAN SPECIAL. Pine Bluff, Ark—(Exclusive)—We finally got out of Texas and are now rolling across the fertile fields of Bob Burns’ bazooka-land.
The team, with the exception of Ambie Schindler, whose leg is still pretty bad, worked out tn the Cotton Bowl at Dallas today—home of Southern Methodist’s Mustangs. We were met at the stadium by Joel Evans and Sue Gates Evans, who need no introduction to Trojans.
Our visit to the Centennial exposition was somewhat dampened by Coach Jones' official order barring any of the boys from seeing girl shows. That edict didn't stop some of the rooters, however, though I’ve never been able to wax enthusiastic on such things in the middle of the day.
Belko In Style
Max Belko got himself a glorified rickshaw, as ever doing things up In the biggest way possible. Gene Hibbs looks blooming with his sweet curls, and should terrorize Illinois no end.
Tell Jane Anderson that Bill Gaisford has run into more female cousins wherever we stopped, fulfilling his quota at the fair.
The entire gang bought 10-gallon hats, which really caught on with the local grid bugs who turned out to meet us. I must say that Dallas outdid itself in receiving the team.
Rounsevelle and Colston. I am happy to report, are still sober.
Cold weather at EH Paso yesterday continued ln Dallas today, adding considerable zest to the Cotton Bowl workout. The temperature never got over 70 degrees.
In St. Louis
We're due in St. Louis at 9:15 tomorrow morning, central time, and will then leave immediately over the Wabash line for Tolono, 111., where we arrive at 1 p.m. From there they’ll whisk us over to Champaign by bus for a short tapering off practice session on the Illinois campus. Then we’ll be taken over to Danville, 25 miles west of Champaign, where we will be quartered until shortly before game time.
Of course. I’m a yell leader, and supposed to be a rah-rah boy, but honestly. I've never seen a squad

clay by Dr. Emil A. Seletz, an eminent Los Angeles brain surgeon also noted for his work as a sculptor.
Dr. Widney not only helped to found the university, but was one of its early presidents, and later established the medical school, of which he became the dean. He will be remembered well by Trojans who heard him speak recently at the Founders Day assembly.
At 95, the venerable educator Is still active, though an automobile accident has partially deprived him of his sight and hearing. He expects to soon publish a book | "Life and Its Problems as Seen by a Blind Man at 95,”
Upon its completion, the bust will be unveiled in the Doheny library at an impressive ceremony to be arranged by the medical alumni. It will then be placed on a pedestal at a vantage point where it will serve as a permanent reminder to all of Dr. Widney’s work ln founding and maintaining the university.
Soviet Flatly Tells League She Will Intervene if Fascists Aided
Specific Instances Cited
Long-Feared Crisis Raised By Reds' Ultimatum;
Pits Two Powers
LONDON. Oct. 8— (UP)—■ Russia tonight specifically charged Portugal with intervening in the Spanish civil war and reiterated that she will consider herself free to act as she sees fit.
The charges, contained ln a second note delivered to the international committee for nonintervention ln Spain by Russian Delegate Samuel Kagen. came while diplomats of 27 nations held a friendly conference, hoping to prevent the ultimatum from plunging Europe Into possible war.
Kagan Delivers Note Yesterday Russia flatly told the committee that if the Fascist powers do not stop aiding Fascist rebels, she will consider herself free from the nonintervention pact. Today Kagan delivered the second note specifically charging Portugal with several violations of the neutrality agreement. Germany and Italy were mentioned earlier in a general denunciation.
The note mentioned testimony of an Italian sergeant, Vincenzo Patri-arca, alleging that Portuguese authorities helped him to return to Gen. Francisco Franco's rebel forces after his plane was forced down In Portugal.
Portuguese Incidents
It asserted further that a Portuguese state-owned munitions factory in Barcelona sent shells and machine guns to the Spanish rebels, while asphyxiating gas of Italian manufacture was sent from Lisbon to the Spanish frontier for the ln- I surgents. The note demanded that an Impartial commission be dispatched to the Spanish-PorlUKUesc | frontier to Investigate charges ol . neutrality violation and that observers be stationed there to assure ad- j herence to the neutrality agreement.
It was tacitly admitted that the Soviet Union’s ultimatum had pre- | cipltated a long-feared crisis—one w*ich finds the Fascist nations diplomatically pitted against anti-Fas-clst powers.
Agenda Listed
Meautlme, Lord Plymouth informed the members of the committee of tomorrow’5s four-point agenda:
1.	The Spanish government’s complaints of outside aid to rebels, which, it was understood, British consuls in Spain have been investigating.
2.	Russia's detailed accusations agt.inst Portugal.
3.	Russia's formal notification denouncing the non-intervention pact unless steps are taken immediately to prevent outside assistance from going to the rebels.

Holden To Play for Varsity Club Dance
Calley Holden's 15-piece orchestra has been procured to play at the Varsity club's second annual dance, which Gardiner Pollich, co-chairman, described last night as “the biggest social event ln Trojan nightlife history.” The affair will be in the form of an after-game celebration following the Washington State-U S. C. grid pageant, October 17, and will be held at the Vista Del Arroya hotel ln Pasadena.
Holden’s band ls not unfamiliar to those Trajons who toiled for fame and fortune as extras at the 20th Century-Fox studios during the summer months. It was this musical unit which provided the collegiate airs for that company’s football production, “Pigskin Parade.”
Holden’s experience as a band leader Is not. however, limited to motion pictures. He conducted his orchestra last year for U. S. C. International Relations ball. Formerly, the organization furnished music for the dancers at Balboa's Rendezvous ballroom, and later toured several eastern cities.
Bids for the dance are to go on sale today, according to tickct-chalrman Joey Roberts, and may be secured from any member of the Varsity club. They are priced at $1.50 The affair will be semi-formal, said Pollich, and corsages will be banned.
