By Clark Jones ABOARD TROJAN SPECIAL Dunsmuir, Calif.. Nov. 12 — (Exclusive) — Troy's Thundering Herd, its company of coaches, doctors, sports writers, and more than 75 rooters are at present passing Mt. Shasta. In a few hours we will be into Oregon territory. Tomorrow at 10:30 the Trojan contingent will be in Seattle, the scene of Saturday’s conference football contest.
Headman Howard Jones has been a proverbial question mark to the galaxy of reporters on board. He has refused to state whether he will continue his two-team system or resort to picking the strongest combination from the two outfits. There Is a rumor afloat, however, that the sophomore team will start with Davie Davis skippering the youngsters from the quarterback post.
Norton Is Ready The announcement last night by Dr. Philip S. Feisler that Miles Norton, varsity tackle, would be ln shape to play, was greeted with satisfaction by Jones. "If we are to halt the running attack of the Huskies, we will need full strength at our tackle spots,” the Headman remarked. Norton will be kept ln reserve Saturday along with Max Belko. Don McNeil and Ray Oeorge, sophomores, are slated to get the opening call.
Ray Halvorson, husky sophomore guard who was taken north at the last minut-e, will not be ln shape to play. Dr. Feisler stated. He will be the only man out of the lineup because of injuries.
Band Serenades Team Yesterday morning the team was greeted at Sacramento by the Grant high school band. A large crowd was on hand to watch the team disembark. Al Phaen and Ernie Smith, former Trojan athletes, led the array of Sacramento rooters. More than 300 spectators followed the herd to the Junior college stadium, where a brisk workout was held.
The Trojans were drilled especially ln defense against laterals. Since last Saturday’s upset at the hands of California, Jones has started to concentrate on trick stuff which he fears the Huskies

Keep Soldiers in U.S.’
j KANSAS CITY, Mo., Nov. 12— tU.fi)—Maj. Gen. Smedley D. Butler, whose marines used to act as roving policemen for America, today advanced a new formula for keeping this nation out of useless wars.
“Not one soldier out of the Continental United States,’’ Butler said.
Not even for defense of the Panama canal would have American soldiers sent out of the country. ‘ "Why, one man alone could carry-enough dynamite to close the Panama canal so effectively lt would take three months to dig lt out,” he explained. Butler aided In building the canal.
“Keep all of our soldiers at home and our warships within 1,000 miles of our shores and the United States is safe,” Butler said. “We cannot be Invaded.”
Butler also favored abandoning the Hawaiian Islands.

Jones Lecture On Christianity, Heard by 1800
Noted Authority Discusses Problems of Religion In Scientific Age
‘World in Need of Uplift’
‘No Need for Communism, Fascism in America,’ Declares Author
E. Stanley Jones proved no disappointment to 1800 Trojan students who gathered to hear him in Bovard auditorium yesterday morning.
“What Can We Believe in An Age of Science?” he asked them. Then, pleasingly, but concretely, he told the 1800 not only what they might believe in these confusing times, but also what comfort they might derive from their belief.
“You often hear it said today that any change or advancement ln our living must come under one of two systems—communism or fascism," Dr. Jones stated.
‘‘Let me tell you that we need have neither communism or fascism In America. Religion has something more to offer than either of these. Religion offers the opportunity to have life and to have lt more abundantly."
Religion Brings Relief That religion can provide the goodwill necessary to bring general spiritual uplift to a nation and a world sorely in need of uplift, was Dr. Jones' earnest contention.
“We must grow tired of an economic system that allows us to live half-starved and half-stuffed,'' was the way he put It, showing again how religion1 offers the way out.
Regarding alleged conflict between science and religion, the speaker described science as a quantitative factor, and religion as a qualitative factor. Religion, he believes, makes a universe of the multlverse left us by science. Science v*. Christianity “Yet science," he continued, “has run ahead of religion, where it should have offered religion a new goal. We have only to look back on the great war to see a horrible situation wherein man's soul and intelligence failed to keep the pace set by science. Civilization must strive toward the day when Christianity will supplement scientific technique.'*
“But the scientific approach alone will never lead to God,’1 Dr. Jones concluded.
“I don't know what electricity ls,” he laughed, "but I'm not going to sit in the dark until I find out. I don't know all that there Is to know about my digestion, but I’m not going to starve until I can learn.
“Lastly, I don’t know all about Ood; I can't prove Him. But by trying to take Christ’s way toward Him, I feel confident He may be found ”

Contending that no other Wampus editor had ever made this claim, Larkin asserted that it was his belief that the slogan "tlie bes Wampus ever’ would probably enjoy as much currency as "Look at Spain and Vote Like Maine "
The reason for his silence is the "unreasonable edict of my staff which limits the use of my name in Wampus publicity stories to four times a sentence," the editor stated.
the things I selected—are daringly exotic. I think. In fact, as I do not wish to be quoted at all, just bear this in mind: I’m putting out a magnificent Wampus next week despite the staff's efforts at sabotage in the matter of publicity.
