Belter Understanding Between Protestants, Jews, Catholics Sought
Brotherhood week on the S.C. campus will start today ln conjunction with the National Brotherhood week.
Brotherhood week is an annual nationwide observice in which an effort is made to promote interfaith understanding between members of the Protestant, Catholic and Jewish churches. The program will be held in cooperation with UCLA and LACC.

PLANS MADE Miller has made plans for approximately 60 student speakers to go to the different churches from San Fernando to San Diego next Sunday. These stHdents will speak from the pulpit, explaining the purposes of the Religious Conferences at S.C., LACC, and UCLA to the public. Including the speakers from UCLA and LACC, there will be between 200 and 250 student orators.
Thursday night in the Student Union building there will be a dinner for the students chosen to speak | on Sunday. They will be Informed | as to the text of their speeches, the places where they should go, and the times that they are scheduled to talk.

Summing Pool Is Safer Than Saturday Night Bath * + * +
Filter Requires 578 Feet of Gravel
Though it sounds like a paradox, gravel and sand today assured Trojan swimming enthusiasts of clean, soft water for the next five years.
Work is being completed beneath the south side of the Physical Education building with 578 cubic feet of "dirt' to filter the water going into the SO-— swimming pool
Chief Enlgneer John Woodruff explains that the filtering system must be changed every Jive years. Four giant drums are filled with three grades of gravel to a depth of 18 inches, and with two grades of sand in layers from 6 to 12 Inches deep.	'
Water has been thus filtered and constantly circulated 14 hours a day
since the pool was built. In addition, scientific regulation and tests of chlorine content are made every two hours, and the water and air in the room are kept at a constant temperature to safeguard health.
In fact. Engineer Woodruff assures all students that swimming ih the Trojan pool is less dangerous than taking the Saturday night bath.

blue, four-starred flag from the swift cruiser Houston that late yesterday bore him from Key West to war games in progress in the Caribbean.
PRESIDENT CONCERNED
Mr. Roosevelt, before he departed, Indicated he was concerned over demands b yother countries — demands which he believed the nations concerned hoped would be met because of a fear of aggression among European democracies, rather than discussed through regular diplomatic intercourse.
The president mentioned no names but it was apparent that he had in mind Germany and Italy, and their attitude toward the French. Should the international situation become acute, he was prepared to cut short his tropical cruise and speed back to Washington before March 4, the date originally fixed for his return.
HOUSTON IN WAR GAMES
The president had revealed that the Houston and her escort destroyer leader, the Warrington, would be part of the “deefnding” force ln the games to test the ability of the fleet to protect American shores from an Invader.
Because of the secrecy surrounding the tactical exercises and maneuvers of more than 100 warships ln Caribbean waters, Mr. Roosevelt believed that perhaps 48 hours might elapse before he would communicate with temporary white house offices ln Miami.
RADIOS TO BE SILENT
During certain phases of the games the radios of all ships will be silent, particularly when the opposing fleets emabrk on the problem of searching for each other.
However, Mr. Roosevelt reserved the right to detach the Houston from the maneuvers at any time in order to receive Washington communications and to transmit official business.
In Miami lay the destroyer Badger," serving as a communications ship between the Houston and temporary White House offices in the Miaini-Biltmore hotel.
It was expected that during the week mail and papers would be flown to the president.

Cagers Remain in Race After Defeating Stanford, 35-29, 53-31
A thrilling home stretch duel le ln the offing today with the Trojan Warhorse ready to challenge the one-length lead held by the California Bear when the two teams meet at Berkeley next Friday and Saturday.
The Stanford entry was eliminated from the race last weekend when Southern California turned back the Indians. 35-29 and 53-31. California encountered little difficulty in scoring two lopsided victories over UCLA.
Even the San Francisco fair i* scheduled to fade into the background of interest this week as basketball fans throughout the Pnclfle coast prepared for the climax to the closest race for the southern division title since Hank Luisetti started playing basketball.
CAL IS FAVORITE
California remains as a heavy favorite to annex th? title because of the advantages of a one-game lead, the use of their home gym, and superior height. The Trojans are banking mainly upon their greater speed, a smoother passing attack, and the sharp-shooting of Ralph Vaughn and Dale Sears.
Because of their lead, the Bears need to win only one game to put the Trojans almost entirely out of the running. If Southern California splits the series, Its only hope ls that Stanford wlll upset California at least once in the final two-game series between the school. In the latter instance, the Trojans wolld have to beat the Bruins Ttolce to gain a tie for the title and enter a playoff with the Bears.
TROJANS UNIMPRESSIVE
In their first game with Stanford last weekend, the Southern Californians were unimpressive as they had to come from behind to win, but in the second encounter the Trojans showed Improvement as they stayed ahead of the Indians throughout the oontest.
The first half of the Friday night game found both teams playing cautiously and guarding closely with the Trojans leading 12-10 at the end of the half.
Players on both squad* seemed “to find their eye” during the first minutes of the second half, however, and the sctore was tied three Continued on Page Three
