Indian Airmen Defeat Trojans For Coast Title
Northerners Sweep Last Two Events For 28-16 Victory
White paper streamers, released by Stanford aviators a half mile above Gardena valley airport, spelled defeat for the Southern California flying team last Saturday in their Pacific coast championship meet with the Indians.
Stanford broke an 11-11 deadlock in the “paper-straffing” event' and went on to a 28-16 victory when Oliver Sweningson clipped the fluttering target twice in 21 seconds for a first place and five points. Stan Smith of the Trojans performed the operation in 22.9 seconds for second place and three points.
REDS TAKE FINALE In the finale Stanford’s Martin, Sharp, and Borntraeger earned 10 points by taking first, second, and third when they “spot' landed” 5 feet. 5 feet 8 inches, and 16 feet respectively, from the chalk line. Arch McGregor of the Trojans placed fourth.
The Trojans started well when Shapiro took the first event by “supply dropping” his bundle 2 feet from the center of a large white circle at an altitude of 500 feet. Sharp and Sweningson of Stanford took the remaining points with drops of 24. 30. and 50 feet away from the mark.
TROJANS SCORE In the second event, Stan Smith and Doug Bothwell of SC took first

(An Editorial)
The Community Chest drive, which has fizzled through five days of pitiful collections, reopens this week for the benefit of the committeemen who apparently enjoy observing its agonizing throes of death.
But the committeemen and chairmen are “butching” the job. They stumbled uncertainly through the past week vainly seeking a “short cut to charity,” and evidently today will resume their clumsy fumbling with the reputation of the university they volunteered to serve.
Even this rebuke is too mild an excoriation for the magnitude of blundering which it upbraids.
The drive chairman—who as the responsible head of the campaign, bears the principal brunt of complaints—has made the common yet faulty assumption that appeals confined to campus fraternities and sororities constitute full coverage of the Trojan student body. Only the Greeks were given the belated opportunity to contribute what is yearly “expected” Soon members of SC’s Greek of them, fleet will be singing this old 1 Apparently the committeemen made the disastrous as-

sumption that SC students are not human beings. They reasoned—we might presume—that Trojan students, being different from all other humans, do not have to be coaxed slightly to contribute even to worthy charities. And obviously they also believed that 7000 students would roam the 38 acres of the campus in daily search for the elusive sales (man) (men) who secretly bore the “I Gave” tags.
Thus far, the Chest campaign is a dismal failure, primarily the result of incomplete campus coverage, which in turn is an outgrowth of faulty management.

BASKETS OBTAINABLE
“Others who are desirous of contributing may obtain baskets in the YWCA office in the Student Union lounge,” she added.
The women's gym will be decorated with crimson and gold streamers and balloons. Trojan Amazons will be in charge of the refreshment booths.

The campus Chest officials have decided to extend the final deadline until November 22, although this week will be primarily a tag drive with Greek contributions slated to be turned in on or before the 22nd. The three contributions received Friday brings the total number of houses which donated to 18.
The donations rrom the men and women's dormitories will be tabulated thus afternoon. Paul Johansing and Doris Martin are in charge of the respective groups. Scott said that the results of the drives in the law. medical, and dentistry schools will be totaled and included in today's contributions.

Crowd of 5000 Attends Bonfire
With an estimated crowd of 5000 persons watching, the largest bonfire ever to be constructed by SC students was burned Friday night to celebrate the Stanford football game.
Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity captured the silver loving cup awarded for the organized group which secured the greatest number of points for gathering wood, building the fire, and clean-up work, with more than 19.000 points. Kappa Alpha took second place with 16.000. while j Pi Kappa Alpha and Phi Kappa Psi placed third and fourth respectively with 14.000 and 12.000, points.
Each worker was awarded 25 j points for every two hours of work. ! and 100 extra points for special j projects.
