Fraternity Afler Ws Stay Abroad Formed
Crescent Club Added To Ranks of SC Social Fraternities
The formation of a new local fraternity on the SC campus was announced this summer with the addition of the Cresent club to the roster of social houses on the campus.
A nucleus of 26 men will be on hand this fall when the fraternity opens its first semester activities. The group will petition Delta Tan Delta, national social fraternity, for a charter when school opens. Delta Tau Delta is represented in California by chapters at the University of California. Stanford, and UCLA. More than 75 chapters are designated on the campuses of the United States.
The new officers selected during the summer to represent the club are as follow’s; Bob Merson .Trojan Knight, president: Bob Wagner, YMCA officer, vice-president: John Roth, house manager; Bill Wood-worth. secretary, and Bob Dobbs, freshman baseball star, pledge-master. Bill Nietfeld will serve the club as publicity director.
Representing Delta Tau Delta on the SC campus will be Darrel Johnson, who will serve as field secretary for the fraternity. Johnson will act in an advisory capacity during the summer and fall. He is an alumnus of the University of Oregon, and will maintain his residence at the fraternity house.
Several members of the club are representative of outstanding campus activities. Bruce Blackstone. a pledge of the group, is a sub-editor of the Wampus, campus humor magazine. Blackstone also fills the capacity of chief photographer for that publication. Merson. aside from serving as a Knight, is a member of Sigma Sigma and has served on the Junior class council. Representing the club in the Trojan Squires will be Carl Miller, a sophomore in the College of Commerce.
Other men active on campus include John Van Duesen. junior football manager. John Masters, sophomore track manager, and 'Dm Wyle, varsity gymnast team member. Nietfeld is also a member of the Summer Trojan editorial staff, and a member of the editorial board on the Daily Trojan.
A Germany faced with desperate shortage of food, but in no way likely to meet defeat because of that shortage.
A Finland which has eventually come to be about the safest place in Europe.
An Italy which did not want to go to war against anybody.
--- i A Sweden w7hich must turn to
Russia, its enemy for generations, as its economic hope.
And an America gaining respect in Europe because it is keeping out of the wrar.
These are the thumbnail, up-to-the-minute sketches brought back by Dr. Ivan Benson, associate professor of journalism at the University of Southern California, who has just arrived in Los Angeles after a year spent in Stockholm, Sweden.
With his wife and three children, Dr. Benson found it necessary to travel through Germany and Italy to reach Genoa, where they sailed aboard the S.S. Manhattan, arriving in New' York June 11. Since that time Dr. Benson has been in Minnesota, having just arrived at his Los Angeles home to resume his faculty duties at SC.
“Our trip through Germany revealed that the Germans are not in good circumstances.” Dr. Benson stated. “Every available piece of ground appeared to be utilized for crops, but there seemed to be no one at hand to care for the fields, to say nothing of handling the harvest.
“In the cities there is a shortage of food, and most of that available is unpalatable, at least to those not aecustomed to substitutes or not driven by the zeal to sacrifice.
“However, there is no indication that a food shortage wrould ever defeat the Germans. The old people, cripples, and youth left behind Continued on Page Three

Conductor
Bradley To Talk on ‘Film and Theater’;
Orchestra To Play at Assembly Today
A program of music played by the SC Summer Session symphony orchestra and an address by Dr. E. Scully Bradley will be the features of an all-university assembly to be held at 10 o’clock this morning in Bovard auditorium.
Beginning a half-hour earlier than is usual for assembly -[ with selections bj^the orchestra under the baton of Ralph E. Rush, visiting professor in the School of Music. Classes will not be dismissed for their first half-hour of the assembly.
Following an intermission while the other students enter the auditorium at 10:30 a.m. the orchestra will play selections under the direction of Lucien Cailllet. resident professor of music. At the conclusion of the musical program Dr. Bradley, visiting professor of English, will lecture on the subject, "Film and the Theater."
In his lecture. Dr. Bradley will take issue with the notion that one cannot at the same time appreciate the legitimate drama and motion picture drama. An amateur director and actor of wide experience and a member of the Play and Players group of Philadelphia. Dr. Bradley combines knowledge of the theater with knowledge of motion picture drama gained through long acquaintance with motion picture workers.
Finding himself unable to accept the oft-repeated opinion that the theater and the cinema were mutually exclusive, he began an intensive study of the two forms of art.
He has concluded that whereas the motion picture is best adapted to narrative, the legitimate drama ia predominately a poetic expression. In a sense their intentions are different, and certainly both — not only one — are worth preserving.
In his lecture he will discuss the probable future of the drama, and it is his feeling that the trend will be towards the greater popularity of community playhouse undertakings, such as those of the Pasadena Community playhouse and the Play* and Players group of Philadelphia, and diminishing importance of th* New York type of professional drama.
Dr. Bradley is a visiting professor Continued on Page Four
