The brothers at Sigma Phi Epsi-! Ion. social fraternity at 630 West 28th street, last week grew weary at repeated mysterious raids on their food supply, and installed a heavy iron lock on the pantry door.

“Playtime” will go into effect at 4 o'clock this afternoon when the Women's Athletic association opens the spring sports season with a sportsfest in the women’s dance studio. 4 to 5:30 o’clock.
Badminton, p:ng pong, shuffle board, court tennis, tether ball, and volleyball will be included on the program. All Trojan women are invited by the WAA cabinet to attend the affair and participate in their favorite sports. Lois Wilkins and Helen Martin, golf and baseball managers, will circulate signup sheets at the sportsfest. Women registering for either golf or baseball at this time will be given credit for one practice in that sport.
Betty Peir, general chairman of the affair, announces that sports participants may attend in street clothes if they wish, but that gym clothes will be available to all Trojanes for the afternoon, free of charge,
the fraternity pledges help sell the magazines,” Warner averred.
“First of all,” he continued, “there will be short stories. ‘Of Jose and the River’ by Walt Bandick is a realistic tale based on events of the recent flood in the Los Angeles area. ‘Newspaper Man,' by Lee Goodman, and stories by Walt Zema and Bud Colegrove will also be in this issue. The March Wampus has the best short stories in the history of the magazine.
PROBLEM SOLVED
“Second of all," he said gaining vocal momentum, “the magazine will contain a pictorial presentation of a subject which has long been a baffling enigma to campus beautification. The Wampus at last presents a solution to the controversial topic of ‘What to Do With Old College.’
“Then there is an article by T. K. Wright entitled ‘Rugby Be Nimble,’ which explains the intricacies and finer points of this popular English sport. It is rumored that T. K. Wright taught Harry Smith, Trojan rugger, all that he knows about the game.”

Murder in Cabin 13!
This is the central theme of a $10,000 “suit,” the law school's second mock trial of the semester, which will be heard Wednesday evening in the law building auditorium.
The alleged murder in the case concerns William Wellington and his deceased wife. It was in February that Wellington — who is in reality a senior law student—unemployed, started with his wife from their San Francisco home for Phoenix, where they expected to find work. MURDER DISCOVERED Stopping overnight in Los Angeles, as the story of the pseudo-crime is related, the couple stayed in an auto court at 8801 South Alameda avenue—in cabin 13. About 10 o'clock, the manager of the court, stopping by to see if the Wellingtons were comfortable, was horrified to find the wife sprawled on the kitchen floor, killed by a skull fracture.
There were no witnesses to the “slaying.” It is a case of purely circumstantial evidence. A monl#ey wrench bearing Wellington's fingerprints, but no blood, was found outside the window; a bloody handkerchief, initialed “W.W.,” was discovered under the bed.
COMPANY REFUSES TO PAY Mrs. Wellington carried life insurance, with her husband the beneficiary. The insurance company, however, refused to pay Wellington, citing a clause in the policy which lenders it void should the beneficiary intentionally cause the death of the insured.
Wellington has entered suit against the company for recovery of $10,000 on the policy. Howard Patrick and George Hart Jr., attorneys for the plaintiff, have promised to “pull a surprise move” in attempting to secure a favorable verdict.
WORK IS DIFFICULT
Their work will be difficult, according to law students, since a stipulation in the rules of the mock trial requires that the plaintiff’s counsels, to win their case, must prove that the death was accidental. They cannot attribute the crime to another murderer, nor can they claim suicide.
The trial is enacted entirely by senior legal students. Representing the defense are Steven Weisman and Lyta Jorgensen.
A series of four addresses will b« made by Dr. Edgar Goodspeed. eminent American scholar in modern Biblical translations, at an all-day conference on religious work today.
Sponsored by the School of Religion, the conference will open with an all-university assembly in Bovard auditorium at 10 ajn. Dr. Goodspeed will talk on “Adventure* with Books.”
DISCUSSION PLANNED Techniques of handling the problems facing modern day parents, professional church workers, and religious groups of all kinds will be outlined at the non-denominational conference on religious works.
“Four Hundred Years on the English Bible” will be the topic of the second address of the day’s lectures, to be delivered by the eminent scholar at 2:30 p.m. His seminar at 3:45 p.m. will treat on “Modem Bible Translations.”
PRESIDENT TO PRESIDE Presided over by Dr. Rufus B. von KleinSmid. a banquet meeting in Foyer of Town and Gown at 6:30 p.m. will feature another of Dr. Goodspeed’s lctures, when he will discuss “The Larger Use of the New Testament for Today."
In conjunction with Dr. Good-speed’s lectures this afternoon, a series of five seminars will be con- $ ducted under the direction of Dr. Leonard Oechsli. district superintendent of the Methodist church. AFTERNOON SEMINARS Dr. Joy Leonard of U.S.C. will assume chairmanship of the lecture on “Capital. Labor, and Religion,’* conducted as one of the afternoon's five seminars. Other speakers of the day who will direct seminar discussions include Dr. Robert John Taylor .professor of religious education: Eugene L. Roberts, associate professor of physical education; and Dr. Carl Sumner Knopf, dean of the School of Religion.
ORGAN RECITAL Included ln the afternoon semin-! ars will be discussions of recreational programs to interest young people in the home and the creating of religious atmosphere within it.

Badminton, p:ng pong, shuffle board, court tennis, tether ball, and volleyball will be included on the program. All Trojan women are invited by the WAA cabinet to attend the affair and participate in their favorite sports. Lois Wilkins and Helen Martin, golf and baseball managers, will circulate signup sheets at the sportsfest. Women registering for either golf or baseball at this time will be given credit for one practice in that sport. Betty Peir, general chairman of the affair, announces that sports participants may attend in street clothes if they wish, but that gym clothes will be available to all Trojanes for the afternoon, free of charge, the fraternity pledges help sell the magazines,” Warner averred. “First of all,” he continued, “there will be short stories. ‘Of Jose and the River’ by Walt Bandick is a realistic tale based on events of the recent flood in the Los Angeles area. ‘Newspaper Man,' by Lee Goodman, and stories by Walt Zema and Bud Colegrove will also be in this issue. The March Wampus has the best short stories in the history of the magazine. PROBLEM SOLVED “Second of all" he said gaining vocal momentum, “the magazine will contain a pictorial presentation of a subject which has long been a baffling enigma to campus beautification. The Wampus at last presents a solution to the controversial topic of ‘What to Do With Old College.’ “Then there is an article by T. K. Wright entitled ‘Rugby Be Nimble,’ which explains the intricacies and finer points of this popular English sport. It is rumored that T. K. Wright taught Harry Smith, Trojan rugger, all that he knows about the game.” Amazon Pledges Named Twenty-Two Coeds Chosen For Women's ’ Honorary Group Twenty-two coeds were accepted for membership into Amazons, U.S. C. women's honorary service organization, when their names were announced by Jane Rudrauff, president of the group, at an assembly Friday.

Speeches by campus leaders and Murder in Cabin 13! This is the central theme of a $10,000 “suit,” the law school's second mock trial of the semester, which will be heard Wednesday evening in the law building auditorium. The alleged murder in the case concerns William Wellington and his deceased wife. It was in February that Wellington — who is in reality a senior law student—unemployed, started with his wife from their San Francisco home for Phoenix, where they expected to find work. MURDER DISCOVERED Stopping overnight in Los Angeles, as the story of the pseudo-crime is related, the couple stayed in an auto court at 8801 South Alameda avenue—in cabin 13. About 10 o'clock, the manager of the court, stopping by to see if the Wellingtons were comfortable, was horrified to find the wife sprawled on the kitchen floor, killed by a skull fracture. There were no witnesses to the “slaying.” It is a case of purely circumstantial evidence. A monl#ey wrench bearing Wellington's fingerprints, but no blood, was found outside the window; a bloody handkerchief, initialed “W.W.,” was discovered under the bed. COMPANY REFUSES TO PAY Mrs. Wellington carried life insurance, with her husband the beneficiary. The insurance company, however, refused to pay Wellington, citing a clause in the policy which lenders it void should the beneficiary intentionally cause the death of the insured. Wellington has entered suit against the company for recovery of $10,000 on the policy. Howard Patrick and George Hart Jr., attorneys for the plaintiff, have promised to “pull a surprise move” in attempting to secure a favorable verdict. WORK IS DIFFICULT Their work will be difficult, according to law students, since a stipulation in the rules of the mock trial requires that the plaintiff’s counsels, to win their case, must prove that the death was accidental. They cannot attribute the crime to another murderer, nor can they claim suicide. The trial is enacted entirely by senior legal students. Representing the defense are Steven Weisman and Lyta Jorgensen. A series of four addresses will b« made by Dr. Edgar Goodspeed. eminent American scholar in modern Biblical translations, at an all-day conference on religious work today. Sponsored by the School of Religion, the conference will open with an all-university assembly in Bovard auditorium at 10 ajn. Dr. Goodspeed will talk on “Adventure* with Books.” DISCUSSION PLANNED Techniques of handling the problems facing modern day parents, professional church workers, and religious groups of all kinds will be outlined at the non-denominational conference on religious works. “Four Hundred Years on the English Bible” will be the topic of the second address of the day’s lectures, to be delivered by the eminent scholar at 2:30 p.m. His seminar at 3:45 p.m. will treat on “Modem Bible Translations.” PRESIDENT TO PRESIDE Presided over by Dr. Rufus B. von KleinSmid. a banquet meeting in Foyer of Town and Gown at 6:30 p.m. will feature another of Dr. Goodspeed’s lctures, when he will discuss “The Larger Use of the New Testament for Today." In conjunction with Dr. Good-speed’s lectures this afternoon, a series of five seminars will be con- $ ducted under the direction of Dr. Leonard Oechsli. district superintendent of the Methodist church. AFTERNOON SEMINARS Dr. Joy Leonard of U.S.C. will assume chairmanship of the lecture on “Capital. Labor, and Religion,’* conducted as one of the afternoon's five seminars. Other speakers of the day who will direct seminar discussions include Dr. Robert John Taylor .professor of religious education: Eugene L. Roberts, associate professor of physical education; and Dr. Carl Sumner Knopf, dean of the School of Religion. ORGAN RECITAL Included ln the afternoon semin-! ars will be discussions of recreational programs to interest young people in the home and the creating of religious atmosphere within it.
