Drawing a comparison between the past and the present, Dr. Eiselen pointed out that American sentiment, as indicated by the Gallup and Fortune polls, is stronger, if anything than at any time since 1917. Our economic ties, since passage of the lend-lease bill, are stronger also. Our sensibilities have been shocked, this time by actual atrocities, the brutal Polish campaign and the bombing of nonmilitary objectives in England. Now (Continued on Page Three)

A professor in the School of Education, Dr. Crawford came to the university shortly after receiving his Ph. D. at the University of Chicago in 1924. His classes during the Summer Session are “Secondary Education” and the secondary education section of the master’s thesis seminar.
BOARD FACES PROBLEMS
Tracing recent movements and experiments in educational methods, Dr. Theodore H. E. Chen, lecturer in International Relations, education and Asiatic studies, discussed “The Quest for Unity in College Education” at the first meeting last week.
Every college administrative board, Dr. Chen pointed out, is Confronted with many problems vital to the educational aims of the school: “Is college for the few or many? Is education meant for all or the select few? Should we seek truth for the sake of truth alone or for its use in society? Shall we concentrate on culture or vocational competency? Is citizenship or scholarship to be stressed in the university curriculum?”
HARVARD IS EXAMPLE
Because the factor of personal evaluation enters into the solution of these problems by each administrative group, a dissimilarity in the aims, methods, studies and product exists between divisions of the universities as well as between comparable institutions.
“The growth of disunity in colleges education is best illustrated (Continued on Page Four)
First Tour 0( Session
Trojans to Inspect Broadcast Facilities of Columbia Square
First event in a series of tours to points of interest in southern California arranged especially for the Summer Session students by Kenneth K. Stonier, tour manager, will be a visit to the Hollywood studios of the Columbia Broadcasting System July 3.
Station KNX and the facilities of Columbia Square, one of the world’s most modern radio “workshops” will be inspected by students in a series of tours conducted at half-hour intervals by guides who present an interesting, informal picture of “behind the broadcast” scenes in radio, Stonier said. PURPOSE EXPLAINED
The studio tours have been designed to give a first-hand view of an ideal radio production center, so that visitors may gain an understanding of the details and problems entering into radio production, according to a CBS spokesman. Columbia Square is located at Sunset boulevard and Gower street on the site of the first motion picture studio in Hollywood.
Tickets for the trip to Santa Catalina island July 19th are now on sale at the cashier’s office in the student bookstore. Round trip tickets from Los Angeles, including train and steamer fare, are $3.10 each. Round trip steamer transportation from Wilmington, is $2.50 per person.
For all SC Summer Session students a reduced rate of 25 cents per person will be charged on the Trojan “radio day” only, Stonier announced, adding that tickets for various broadcasts will be available weekly.
OBSERVATORY NEXT VISIT
Second trip in the tour series will be a visit to the Griffith Park Observatory July 10. Interesting features of the visit include astronomical demonstrations and observation of the celestial bodies through the 12-inch telescope.
Other visits on the special events calendar are a tour of the famous Huntington Library in San Marino where rare books and art objects are on display; an inspection of the Community theater, state theater of California and “proving ground” for many of our present motion picture personalities; the always-popular trip to Santa Catalina island, vacation center of the Southland; and a tour of Los Angeles harbor by boat.
Western United States Home to Most Students
The western part of the United States has supplanted the east as the leader in the student body at the University of Southern California.
During the regular school year, New York and Illinois led the list of out-of-state students on the SC campus, with two other eastern states also in the
“big ten,” but the eight-weeks term of the current Summer Session finds all of the first ten states west of the Mississippi.
Preliminary figures based on the records of the home-towns of the registrants in the first summer term show Arizona and Kansas as the leaders, with New York, which was first during the regular school year, dropping to fifteenth, and Illinois, from second to twelth.
Other states In the summer first ten are Nebraska, Texas, Missouri, Iowa, Washington, Utah, New Mexico, and Colorado.
