Cause Of Chile Earthquake Cited * * * +
John Tanaskovic, Santiago Student, Gives Reason * ■* * *
Andes Weak Zone Stress Blamed
By John A. Eyed
John Tanaskovic, engineering major and a resident of Santiago, Chile, believes that the recent disastrous earthquake can be attributed to the stress of the Andes mountains upoon the weak zones which lie in its valleys—thereby causing volcanic reactions. These mountains have been producing new volcanoes. Qulzapa. the *	--
most active of these, has erupted already.
Giving a description of the country, Tanaskovic says that the affected area is a rich agricultural center and ls part of the great and fertile Center valley. This valley begins 50 miles inland and extends approximately 100 miles farther.
After a four hour train ride south from San-tlage, the entrance to the area,' San Fernando, appears occupations and here the "huasas"
(co^ '^oys) are seen.
Little by little, the more fertile parts of the valley are seen. It is bordered or. the east by the most highest r<eaks of the Andes, Presently, Valca, a new and modem ap tears. Talca was destroyed by au arthquake in 1927.
Forty miles farther lies Chilian, one of the oldest cities in Chile.
The fifty thousand inhabitants live mostly in adobe homes. Chilian ls also the birthplace of many notable personages responsible for the independence of the nation.
There is only one good highway and two railroads connecting the area with Santiago, the capltol.
These routes are severed and this makes relief measures extremely difficult.
Experiencing violent quakes before and twice caught off guard—
1913 and 1927 — the Chilean government has been making preparations to insure against another of these catastrophes. Modern hospitals ,wlth adequate facilities for emergency operations have been installed ln many cities. Concepcion is best equipped.	—j------

Pritchard Selected For Two Offices
Coordinations Assistant Appointed to Stale, Local Committees
The hobby of boosting the career system in public service has been responsible for the appointment of Lawrence D. Pritchard, assistant director of coordination at S.C., as chairman of the Public Personnel Standards committee of Los Angeles and as a member of the National and State committees organized for the same purpose.
Sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, the work carried by these committees is part of a drive rapidly becoming a notional campaign to Improve the merit system in Public Service and extend lt to Jurisdiction where it ls totally absent for the' present time, Pritchard says.
‘‘The future of Democracy depends upon the working of a democratic system, the Public Service is one of the means of consoling human rights with efficiency to govern," Pritchard states. In his opinion a career system which would give an opportunity to talented young men to enter ln Public Service for a life work, would be the best safeguard of Democracy.

Cal Holds Upper Hand In Series
By Jack Gillean
Height and Bill Ogilvie will be matched by speed and Ralph Vaughn when the league-leading Cal cagers tangle with the second-place Trojans at 8:30 o'clock tonight and tomorrow night ln the Olympic auditorium.
Pasadena junior college will take on the unbeaten Trobabes in a preliminary contest at 6:30 o'clock tonight, with the frosh meeting Fullerton J. C. tomorrow night at the same Uire.
Holding two lop-sided victories over UCI.A ard one over Stanford, the Bears enter tl-e sirles as fav-orUes to remain on top in the conference race. With a defeat at the hands of Stanford to mar their record, the Trojans must win both games to move Into first place in the standings.
OGILVIE STARS
Averaging 6 feet 4 inches in height, the towering Bears boast of a sharpshooting center ln Ogilvie. The Trojans, standing a little over 6 feet, will depend ur.on Forward Vaughn for most of their points. Vaughn and Ogilvie are leading the confersnca ln scoring.
Last year a favored Trojan five lost to the Bears ln three out of four tilts. The first game found Cal winning 33-25, with 39-37, and 49-40 victories following. In the last game of the 1938 season between Cwl and B.C., ehe same Trojan five thit plays tonight walloped the Bears 60-27,
RECORDS LISTED
So far ln conference play the Trojan* h*ve knocked over UCLA 69-36, and Stanford. 45-32. In two games with the Bruins, the Bears won 54-39 and 49-33. Against Stanford, Cal experienced little difficulty in winning 45-29.
In nearly every game, the Bears have combined height with a smooth offense to win. Besides 6 foot 6 inch Ogilvie at center, Coach Nibs Price has two high-scoring forwards ln Ivor Thomas and Captain Bob Chalmers. All three take turns in leading the Bear scorers, with Ogilvie probably being the most consistent player.
Reports of Vaughn’s record-breaking performance of last weekend were quick to reach the Berkeley camp, and Coach Price has designed a defense that wlll pit Walt Continued on Page Three

‘‘The public Is tax conscious to-, day but not tax Informed," said Professor Ragan who will be Instructor of the new course. ‘‘Todays student ls tomorrow's taxpayer and he should be acquainted with the problem of Public Finance.
