Nippon Claims U.S. Division Paces Doom'
TOYKO, Jan. 12—(Broadcast recorded by U.P. in San Francisco)— Tokyo radio today broadcast a Shanghai report that Gen. Douglas Mr.cArthur has notified the U.S. government that the remaining forces of the 31st American division in the Phillippines “are doomed to be totally annihilated by Japanese encirclements.”
The Shanghai report said MacAr-thur notified Washington Saturday that he was “deprived of all possibilities” in his defense against Japanese forces attacking on Bataan peninsula.
‘JAPS TRUSTED’
Jorge Vargas, mayor .of Manila, was quoted by the Asahi Manila correspondent as saying that “the people of Manila have absolute trust in the Japanese forces.”
“Vargas said he would be bent on making every effort to restore complete peace and order in the city in accordance with a seven-point agreement reached with the Japanese military authorities,” the flash inteiTiew added.
The Asahi correspondent asked Vargas why he remained in Manila aftei President Menuel Quezon and U.S. High Commissioner Francis B. Sayre had fled.
AGREEMENT MADE
“Vargas said there had been an agreement between President Quezon and himself that someone should take care of the city even after its fall to the Japanese,” the dispatch said.
In an account of the Japanese victory over British defense forces on the Slim river, military dispatches said the attack was led by panzer units which flanked the British lines.
The panzers took a round-about
way and advanced 12 miles in nine hours to intercept the retreat of the British and inflict a defeat.
The defeated defenders included 10.000 troops of the 11th Malayan division, and 15,000 of the first group army — most of which were Australians.
These defenders had attempted to resist the Japanese with approximately 40 field guns.

SC Announces Scholarships
Thirty-Five Tuition Awards Proffered Accredited Students
Announcement of 25 national tuition scholarships for high school graduates to SC for 1942-43 was made yesterday by President Rufus B. von KleinSmid. An additional 10 scholarships for graduates of accredited junior colleges in the classes of February and June, 1942, were announced.
Candidates for either type of scholarship are required to rank in the highest tenth of their class in scholastic achievement and to be recommended by the school principal. Not more than one student may be nominated from each schpol.
The university committee on scholarships and student aid will select the winners after an evaluation of the data contained on nomination forms and school records submitted by the principals. Personal interviews are eliminated, thus giving students from distant states an equal chance with local students.
Nominations will cJose April 1 and scholarships will be awarded a month later. Each will cover basic tuition in any of the following divisions of the university:
College of Architecture and Fine Arts, College of Commerce and Business Administration (not including the School of Music), College of Pharmacy, School of Education, School of Government, and the Los Angeles University of International Relations.

Peeve Grows Against Vollrath Tells
Governor s Call Limit
SACRAMENTO, Jan. 11 — (U.P.)— Legislative resentment against Gov. Culbert Olson’s refusal to enlarge his call to include items other than appropriations to the state guard and emergency fund mounted tonight on the eve of the reconvening of both houses in wartime session.
Subventions to local governments
for defense previously were ruled out by the governor’s action and today an interim committee on water problems found that river levee protection could not be considered under the call.
State Engineer Edward Hyatt haS recommended to the committee that a state department, preferably the department of public works, be designed to supervise levee protection against sabotage with a $100,000 appropriation.
MAY USE SPECIAL CALL
“We’re powerless to take it up unless the governor enlarges the call and he already has told a subcommittee of the joint interim committee on defense that he positively will not do that,” said Assemblyman Seth Millington, a member of both groups.
Assembly Speaker Gordon Garland, leader of the anti-Olson bloc in the leaver house, predicted, however, that the governor would issue a special call to include anti-sabo-tage legislation as proposed by Hyatt.
Hyatt’s report was referred to the predominantly anti-Olson defense committee, which meets tomorrow prior to the reconvening of both houses at 11 a.m,.
The water committee recommended passage of a joint resolution urging congress to enact appropriate bills to continue the flood control program in California. The resolution was suggested by Garland and Sen. Robert Kenny, who conferred in Washington with federal officials last week on authorization of the defense committee.
COMMITTEE TO MEET
They will report to the defense committe tomorrow on the federal government’s attitude toward the state guard, one of the problems studied by the defense committee during the three weeks legislative recess.
Tomorrow the committee is scheduled to submit to the legislature 10 bills, calling for appropriation of $11,271,798 for defense, exclusive of $1,000,000 appropriated as a stop-gap for that purpose before the first part of the session broke up in tur-boil.

Argonaut Society to Hear Hocking
Dr. William Ernest Hocking, chairman of the department of philosophy at Harvard university, and Dr. Wilbur H. Long, professor of philosophy at SC, will discuss “Ethical Commonplaces” at the January meeting of the Argonaut society tomorrow afternoon at 4:15 in Argonaut hall. The discussion will follow a tea at 3:30.
The two philosophers will hold an informal, open discussion on current problems in ethics, a survey of contemporary moral issues, after which the audience may join in the conversation.
Dr. Hocking has lectured throughout the United States and in Britain having given several of the outstanding lecture series in philosophy in England. He is an outstanding philosophical idealist, said Professor Long.
Since 1912 Dr. Hocking has published 11 books including “Man and the State,” “The Meaning of God in Human Experiences,” and “Human Nature and Its Remaking.”
Photo Advance
Use of More Sensitive Plates in Near Future Foreseen by Professor
Photographic plates may be made 10,000 times more sensitive if recent discoveries prove successful, Dr. Richard E. Vollrath, research professor of physics, announced at the ninth annual School of Research lecture Friday.
Discussing “Recent Advances in the Science of Photography, with Particulai Reference to Astronomy,” Dr. Vollrath presented the lecture at an afternoon meeting instead of the usual formal dinner due to the possibility of a blackout. Dr. Rockwell Dennis Hunt, dean of the Graduate School, presided.
ACC1DFNTAL DISCOVERY
“It has been discovered by accident that changes can be made in the sensitivity of film,” Dr. Vollrath said, “and theoretically the sensitivity could be increased 10,000 times. This would mean that snapshots or moving pictures could be taken in moonlight.’*
Very recent experiments, some of which have not yet been thoroughly checked, show that the use of an organic mercury compound increases sensitivity 300 times. Film treated with ethelene diamine produces similar results.
LITTLE USE YET
“For ordinary photography these discoveries are of little use now, but since they are so effective for long exposures there is hope that they may eventually be made practical for snapshots,” explained Dr. Vollrath.
“At the present time these discoveries are very important in ad-tronomy. In taking star spectrums,” he continued, “especially of faint stars, the length of exposure required may be reduced from 8 hours to 48 minutes.” The increased sensitivity is also valuable in measuring the magnitude or brightness of stars and in the search for red stars.
In a preliminary address Dr. Hunt announced that the speaker at next year’s research lecture will be Dr. John Pfiffner, professor of government and director of the public administration research project. He also suggested that all of the lectures presented in the series be published in one volume next year to celebrate the tenth annual research lecture next year.
President Rufus B. von KleinSmid, who was to have addressed the group, was unable to be present.

Yank, British Planes Blast Jap Airports
RANGOON", Jan. 12—*X*P)—Twen-ty-six Japanese warplanes have been destroyed in raids by American and British fliers on Japanese-held airdromes in the Malay peninsula, army sources said this morning.
At least 10, “and probably more” were bombers, it was said.
It was not specified where the attacked air fields were located, but it was presumed they were 'in Thailand and North Malaya. It is from these fields that Japanese planes have taken off to bomb Rangoon and other points in Burma, as well as British Imperial defenses and troops resisting the Japanese in Malaya north of Singapore.
JAPS INEFFECTIVE
Ineffective Japanese raids were reported on two places in Burma, Moulmein, 100 miles southeast of Rangoon and Tavoy, 175 miles south of Moulmein.
It was announced that the Japanese dropped 30 bombs on Moulmein, which has been raided frequently in recent weeks. One civilian was killed and two were wounded. No material damage was done.
The planes dropped their bombs from about 4000 feet altitude. It was learned that one plane was shot down.
Tavoy reported no casualties and no damage.
SMASH PLANES
American planes manned by volunteers of the air force which the Chinese built up last year to protect the Burma road, and RAF planes have been ferreting out for the past week air fields in Thailand which the Japanese have been using.
Raids to smash planes on the ground, blow up gasoline stocks and make runways useless have been made on fields at Bangkok, Raheng. Mehsod and other places not yet revealed in communiques. All have been reported highly successful, and they have been carried out with little loss to the attackers.

There wasn’t, but then again you’ll have to admit it’s amazingly seldom, even if the plaster does leak, in which case the welder’s wife is strictly from hunger — or would you appreciate two week’s time to whitewash defense?
These, and other timely questions, will be fully explained and disgusted by a board of exceedingly incompetent experts on Jan. 14, which, by a strange coincidence, falls on next Wednesday — and, even funnier, still, falls all over the Wampus.
