Television Makes Debut On Campus
Hour Program Broadcast Viewed by Students, Faculty Members
In a 60-mlnute performance television made its debut yesterday on the S C. campus.
In the darkened office of the radio department curious students and faculty members saw the long bottle-shaped tube of the television receiver gleaming with a vibrant green light in the form of a five-inch square.
IMAGES ARE SHOWN
Across the front of the tube streamed the miniature images of a China clipper, produced in the KHJ studios by a motion picture, the figure of Frank Andrews, explaining the program ,and several interviews with people who are interested ln the educational future of television.
A separate radio receiver below the television set, supplied the supplementary sound accompaniment. PURPOSE EXPLAINED
The purpose of this broadcast as explained by George Seward, president of the society sponsoring the "hear and see” educational program, is to demonstrate how students could be shown the actual, moving scenes from the industry, business, or social condition ln which they are Interested.
Four southern California schools and colleges received yesterday's exhibition. They were S.C., Pomona college at Claremont, Polytechnic high school of Los Angeles, and Polytechnic high school of Long Beach.
Owing to the limited facilities, visitors were asked to look at the demonstration for a short time only.
Spanish Battle In Capital
Street Fighting Starts In Barcelona,- Women Prepare lor Stand
I PERPIGNAN, Franco - Spanish Frontier, Thursday, Jan. 26—iU.P > j —Catalonian extremists today dis-j trlbuted rifles to their women folk for a desperate “house by house” fight in lhe streets of Barcelona, whose military defenders were flee-j ing northward to escape a sw'ift Insurgent encirclement of Spains greatest city.
Generalissimo Francisco Franco's Moroccans, already in the outer streets of the south behind a vanguard of tanks and armored cars, reported that their light guns had "pulverized” fortifications hurriedly thrown up at the entrance to the city.
COMMANDER IMPATIENT
The commander or the Moors. General Juan Yague, was described by Insurgent headquarters at Lerida as impatient to push on into the center of the city but Franco delayed his order for a triumphal I entry until the partially-destroyed and hunger-ridden metropolis ls completely surrounded.
| It appeared that, with the exception of the syndicalists and anar-| chists and their womenfolk prepar-] ing for a last-ditch fight ln thc J barricaded streets, only a compara- :
I tively small covering force of Loy- [ j allst troops remained in Barcelona. MARKED FOR DEATH | The syndicalists ana anarchists,
| almost every one of whom is believed to be marked for death bc-j fore Franco's filing squads if cap- j | tured, warned the enemy at the gates by radio that "the taking of j Barcelona wlll be no easy matter." |
J "Every man and woman is fierc- I tly det<*rnvlned not ko yield a stop |
before the foreign Invaders,” said ; j the broadcast, relayed to Valencia i in the southern section of govern-j ment Spain.
"The population of the city ls ! ready and the city will be defended I inch by inch and house by house." j [ The chances of escape grew slim-i mer by the hour and late last night i ; military dispatches Indicated that I only an 8 or 10-mile wide gap above the city was poen to escape
Fight Against Paralysis Is Outlined In Lecture By Dr. John F. Kessel
Infantile paralysis, the dread disease constantly pursued as to source, nature, and prevention, is still considered a mysterious malady, according to Dr. John F. Kessel in his Wednesday lecture, "Recent Investigations Regarding Poliomyelitis.”	J Dr. Kessel. head of University of
Southern California's bacteriology department and recognized as an authority along research lines, presented the facts of the disease, historical, and irom the point of view of recent research completed on campus with cooperation of county medical authorities, then wound-up by stating. "Certainly infantile paralysis or poliomyelitis ls a complicated subject It ls one that requires a great deal of work yet. To this end cooperative investigation is being conducted ln many parts of the United States, Europe, and Australia."
DISEASE IS NOT NEW
Infantile paralysis is nothing new. There is good evidence Uiat nay back in 1500 B C. during the time of the Egyptian civilization people were occasionally afflicted by the disease. Dr. Kessel. ln order to substantiate this statement showed by means of slide a reproduction of n crude drawing of an Egyptian figure with a withered leg, as found by archeologlsts ln an ancient tomb.
Spcclal attention was focuscd locally on the malady as result of the serious epidemic which occurred in the Los Angeles district during 1934-35.
MALADY IS PECULIAR
One of the most baffling aspects of the study of the paralysis disease, it has been found, ls the fact that according to early past records it did not strike in epidemic form but rather ln singular spotted cases. Only in recent times has it been known to strike ln mass form. Other peculiarities of the malady, especially the form that has in the past infested the uos Angeles area is the wideness of attack, lowness of death rate, and of residual paralysis as ln comparison to higher mortality and greater paralysis ln other sections of the world.
Among otner things, comparatively recent work has shown that the
U. S. Warships Take Refugees Out Of Spain
ABOARD UBS OMAHA, off Caldetas. Spain, Jan. 25—<l'.r>— American warships, their anti-aircraft guns stripped and manned for action, ran a gaunUet of Insurgent aerial fire today and took off American refugees and embassy staff members — Including seven women and three children —fleeing the Barcelona area.
The U. S. destroyer Badger steamed through a rain of aerial fire to take off 22 American refugees at Caldetas, the embarkation point for foreign refugees.
Seven Insurgent planes dropped 14 bombs, several of which appeared to have been aimed at the U. S. cruiser Omaha's motor launch tied up at the breakwater for the evacuation of the American refugees.

Chilean Earthquake Kills 8000
Rich Agricultural Landi In South-Central Chile Devastated by Shock
SANTIAGO. Chile. Jan. 25—(l.P* —The rich agricultural and coal mining region of south-central Chile tonight lay devastated by an earthquake that took an appalling toll of lives, with government official* reporting 8000 dead ln Chilian and Concepcion alone.
The pilot of a special national airlines plane which the government dispatched to survey the earthquake area, reported that ChU-lan. a city of 40,000 inhabitants 320 miles south of Santiago, was "completely wrecked" and that approximately 10.000 persons were killed. CHILEAN HARD HIT
The government officially estimated the death toll at Chilian, one of the cities hardese hit by the disaster, to be 5000.
The pilot said he saw only three houses standing ln an area of 144 city blocks bounded by four avenues. Injured were piled in the debris-filled streets.
Chilian ls located 320 miles south of Santiago, with which lt ls connected by rail, but the government had received no reports since the quake occurred.
MARTIAL LAW DECLARED
Martial law was proclaimed throughout the devastated area to prevent looting. Property damage was said to be heavy, with several towns ln the rich agricultural and coal mining region reported to have been wiped out in the quake which rocked the entire seacoast and a considerable inland area last midnight.
Foreign Minister Abraham Ortega, acting president of the council of ministers, signed a decree putting the stricken region under control of-t+ie-army and nary, while President Pedro Aguirre Cerda left by special train to direct relief measures.
TOLL EXAGGERATED
Ortega broadcast reports received
by the government on the extent of the disaster and Insisted that early
Information that thousands had been killed was exaggerated. Official
dispatches, he said, indicated the loss of life was not so heavy.
Disrupted communications, however, made lt Impossible to gauge the toll of casultles and officials said lt might be several days before the complete death total is learned.
President Aguirre called upon all citizens to aid the victims of the earthquake, which was the moat severe since the one ln December, 1928, In the same region and which killed 600.
