First Voter Group Urges Registration
Youthful Supporters of Party To Push Large Student Ballot
Fifty young democatic suppoters met last night at the downstown Roosevelt headquarters to push the drive for registration of more "first voters." One of the chief speakers at the meeting of the newly found ed organization was Sherman Mel linkoff, Beverly Hills high school president.
According to Kieran Vanier, Los Angeles county chairman of the organization, the purpose of the club is to get all young people who will be 21 by November 3, to register before tomorrow night. He explained that the club was open to advocates of any party. The new club has swept the country and will present a solid front by November 3. the young chairman from Loyola stated.
Worth Bernard, a well known S. C. graduate and organizer of the Los Angeles league, stated that he hoped many first voters from S. C. would join the organizaUon.
Graham Sheldon, who is the committee chairman on the 8. C. campus, reported that he secured registrars for the convenience of the Trojans and posted notices regarding the activities of the Young Voters league.
It was explained by the chairman that the young Democratic group was organized by Francis B. Sayre, a grandson of former President Wilson. He pointed out that in Los Angeles alone 200,000 young voters would be going to the polls for the first time and that ln the United States there will be nine million. This is the fertile field for the league to cultivate, he concluded.

Mary Jane Sturgeon. Amazon president, explains, “Freshman women who fail to appear at the ceremony today will be called before the Amazon court and will be penalized by having to wear a double-sized armband.

Freshman women must continue to wear their armbands until the traditional freshman - sophomore brawl takes place towards the end of the first semester. If the frosh win, the women may discard their bands and the men their hats; but if the sophomores win. they must be worn until the time of the annual homecoming game.
The green and red armbands may be purchased at the Student Union book store for 25 cents any Ume before the ceremony.

Measuring “brain trust" legislation with the constitution as a yardstick, a 96-page book by Dr. E, M. Erlcksson, associate professor of history, and Trent Steele, Montebello high school instructor, has Just been published.
Entitled "The Constitutional Basis for Judging the New Deal.” the small volume has occasioned much commendatory comment by some of the nation's prominent figures, and by numerous publications.
Dr. Ericksson has received letters from Col. Theodore Roosevelt, Col. Henry Breckenridge, John D. M. Hamilton, Joseph Scott, and numerous other national and local figures.
Dr. Ericksson states that his small book is a by-product of three years of Intensive research into the New Deal measures, executive orders, and the Supreme Court decisions.
In the preface, he points out: “From the beginning of the New Deal, the American people have been subjected to a flood of propaganda and ballyhoo unsurpassed since the World War.
‘‘To the average American oltl-zen this Is very puzzling Is the | constitution really being violated or is it merely being used as a political football? To enable each person to formulate an answer to this question Is the purpose of this book.”
