Besides establishing a new high in western football audiences, Saturday's game may fill the coliseum completely — a thing that has never been done by football since the enlarging of the coliseum.
If a complete sell-out is effected, the total number of persons attending the game will be 103.303 according to figures of Al Wesson. This means 2.130 people will not have seats as there are only 101,074 seats in the stadium.
MANY EMPLOYEES
The excess number of persons Is due to 1200 stadium workers, 550 employees of concessions, 230 officers. and 150 players, coaches and trainers.
There are 99.907 reserved seats including both students, alumni and general admission; 836 box seats, 341 press box seats; and 89 tags for press photographers and newsreel men.

Hundreds Visit Watson Art Exhibition in Doheny Library
The collection of representative art from 79 foreign countries on view in Doheny Memorial library has been visited by hundreds of SC students, Los Angeles citizens, and pupils from public school classes since its opening Monday.
The collection, assembled by Thomas J. Watson, president of the International Business Ma- ,---
chines corporation, was gathered by the leading art authorities and museum directors in each of the countries where the company has representatives.
William Rumwell. local director of the exhibit, is in the art and lecture room from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily to answer questions concerning the
shadow box frame.
Amusing in its originality is Carlos Merida’s “Projections of a Hunt,” an archeologist's version of his scientific discoveries in the modern cubist art.
"The Fete of St. John,” by Sophi Stryienska. has also proven to be a very popular painting with local
ductive to “maximum physical well being, social and emotional stability, and intellectual excellence.”
With the above thoughts in mind, the professor will examine the caliber of health programs in institutions of higher learning.
HEALTH PROGRAMS NEEDED
Not only did 67 per cent of some 224 businessmen interviewed admit that a course in health education in college is worthwhile, but a further need for health programs was noticed when a wide majority of students were found to admit that their high school health programs were inadequate and ineffective, according to Webster.
“When a student matriculates in an institution of higher learning, he not only places his cerebral cortex into the hands of the academic staff for reorganizing, enriching and polishing, he places every scrap of his anatomy squarely into their laps. The average savant is ignorant or neglectful of the psycho-somatic needs of our eager embryonic alumnus,” criticized Webster.
In this light he mentioned that the entering university student should be given an adequate health check-up as well as competent guid-Continued on Page Four
