“What determines our color pref-1 erences?”
Dr. Joy Paul Guilford, proofessor of psychology, will answer this j ( question Wednesday when he ap-! pears as the ninth speaker on the weekly lecture series, telling why | certain colors predominate over others in their popularity with hu- ; man beings. Dr. Guilford will speak in 159 Science fwm 4:30 to 5:30 p.m., and the lecture will be open | to the public.
Commenting on his subject, thc psychologist said that blue is gen- j erally the most popular color. This ! is because color preferences are j induced t» a large extent by biological factors and the human nervous system.
“The nervous system inherits the disposition to be pleased or displeased,” he explained.
Following blue in popularity is red, and then green, with brown the least-favored hue.
When asked whether there is any basis to the theory that the domestic man likes blue, the selfish green, and the “lady-killer” red. Dr. Guilford replied it was “so much nonsense." Biological reaction rather than character is what determines color preferences, ht pointed out Dr. Guilford will illustrate his Wednesday talk by means of slides.

NROTC to Play Host to Chilean Midshipmen
SC will have its first view of military pomp next Friday when midshipmen of the Chilean naval academy, now cruising the coast, will visit the campus and be received by the
j local NROTC unit. |-—
j Twenty-eight cadets and 15 officers are aboard the light-armored I tanker. Rancagua. now anchored at ! San Francisco. Manned by the
senior class of the Chilean naval school, the boat will arrive in Los Angeles harbor early this week for an eight-dav tie-up before returning to its home port from the annual trip.
In full dress uniforms, the Tro-
includethe Chilean consuls stationed at Los Angeles. Dr. Rufus B. von KieinSmid, and members of the International Relations and Spanish clubs.
“Hemispheric solidarity will be furthered strengthed by the greater understanding occasioned by the event,” said John Tanaskovic, promotor of the visit.
He declares that the Chilean navy
were also allowed to act out their songs.
Entries were judged on the basis of excellence of performance and quality of vocal presentation.
Delta Tau Delta took second prize in the classical division, singing “Delta Tau Girl,” and “Delta Shelter.”
SIGMA NU SECOND
Sigma Nu won second prize in the novelty division with its songs, “Adam and Madam,” and "The Freshman Song."
The trophy awarded to the winner of the classical division was donated by Dick Powell, and the cup presented to the winner of the novelty division was donated by the Burr-Patterson company.
Although 17 fraternities had signed up to enter, only 12 actually took part in the contest for the bronze and silver loving cups. Houses winning the cups were allowed to keep them permanently to be added to their collection of trophies.
In a scarcely-veiled prediction of U.S. convoys, the prime minister in a world-circling radio broadcast said that he was confident the American people will not be “frustrated and allow the materials they manufactured to be sent to the bottom of the sea.”
WARNS OF CONFLICT Churchill predicted “fierce and widespread” war in the Mediterranean now that Greece has fallen. He warned that the conflict may spread like a sweeping conflagration “to Spain, Morocco, Turkey, and Russia.”
He said that the American Atlantic fleet and flying boats have been ordered to “patrol the wide waters of the western hemisphere and warn peaceful shipping of all nations outside the combat zone of the presence of lurking U-boats or raiding cruisers."
This American naval and air action, he added, will enable Britain to concentrate her forces closer to the British Isles and “take a far heavier toll of U-boats” in the intensified battle of the Atlantic. ADMITS NAZI STRENGTH He admitted that Germany may occupy, for a time, the vital eastern oil fields and said in a grim statement of the seriousness of the situation;
“We cannot expect to beat the
Germans at once.....I never
under-rated the Germans.”
In his references to the speed-up of American war aid. Churchill said he had learned “with indescribable relief” of the decisions of President Roosevelt to aid British shipping. SANCTIONS U.S. PATROLS Of the United States neutrality patrol proposals, he said he had “felt for some time that something like this was bound to happen.” This, he added, will enable Britain to “concentrate protective forces on routes nearer home and take a far heavier toll of U-boats there.”
“The United States solemnly pledged aid to Britain because its own danger was involved,” Churchill said.
'Weatherman Misses Again on Field Day
Cold and windy weather again haunted the Trojan field day as SC students gathered on the beach at Santa Monica last Friday to play games and enjoy their day away from regularly scheduled classes.
Despite the fact that the weatherman had predicted a “perfect” day for the annual outing, Trojans found the sun’s rays only slightly warm, and a cold wind blowing from across the ocean.
The crowd of students that attended the organized field day played badminton, volleyball, and softball from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Although no refreshments were served by the student committee planning the day, students either brought their lunches with them or purchased food from Santa Monica stores.

Nazis Face Reckoning, Says Holland Minister
•
Warning the German occupants of the Netherlands that there will come a day of reckoning, Dr. Alexander Loudon, minister to the United States from the Netherlands, explained that his nation is still at war with the Nazis.
“It is' true that the government I--
has ordered her soldiers to lay down ^
their arms,” he said, “but the navy | Pll I lOSOD lIV VlTOUp
is still practically intact. Nor has any armistice ever been signed." ,
Loudon was the guest of Dr. and 10 V^TTCl 10111111 Mrs. Rufus B. von KieinSmid at a reception in their home last Thursday.

The diplomat was strong in his conviction that the Netherlands East Indies would never adhere to a policy of appeasement; yet they would always be willing to discuss
reasonable peace terms. He asked Americans to remember that Holland is only a small portion of the empire of the Netherlands, the size of the East Indies being more than twice that of the mother country in population.
Dr. Harold R. Smart, professor of logic at Cornell university, will be the guest speaker. He will speak ono “Some Problems of Modem
Logic.”
Dr. Smart is on sabbatical leave from Cornell. His “History of Modem Logic” is soon to be published and traces the growth of logic from Francis Bacon to the present.
