Revised Exam Dates Given by Committee
Tentative Schedule Cancelled by Group
Sweeping changes in the schedule for final examinations will be introduced this semester to meet the needs of graduating students who will take part in the winter convocation for commencement to be held Sunday, January 31.
“The tentative schedule for final examinations, published last' September has been cancelled. All previous schedules are now superseded by the new schedule appearing for the first time in today’s Daily Trojan,” announced the University Program committee.

Under the new schedule, most graduating seniors will complete final exams by Wednesday, Jan. 27. Lower classmen will find an unexpected week’s reprieve before departmental examinations in the new program. Other examinations have been moved up a week sooner than announced last September. Freshman’ English, health education, women’s physical education, accounting 50a, economics 53, and most general studies examinations will come a week later than previously scheduled. No final examination Is planned for men’s physical fitness courses.
No undergraduate course is exempt from the final examination unless the instructor has secured special approval by the Curriculum committee in advance, it is advised. Undergraduate students will not be allowed to anticipate any final examination or omit any final examination.

President Asks More Manpower
WASHINGTON, Jan. 11—<U.E)— President Roosevelt advised congress in his annual budget message today that about 6.000,000 more people will be needed for the armed forces and war production during 1943.
“Total mobilization of all our men and women, all our equipment and all our materials in a balanced pro duction program will enable us to accomplish the production goals underlying the $100,000,000,000 war budget,” he said.
He said these manpower needs can be met without impairing essential civilian requirements—by transferring workers from less essential jobs and putting to work people "who have not recently sought employment.”

Actors Emote from New Site in Short Plays
One Act Dramas to Begin Saturday
Inaugurating a new policy, the Drama Workshop will present the first of a series of plays to be staged in Touchstone theater when “These Three Tonite” is offered by the workshop players on Saturday,
Jan. 16, and Monday, Jan. 18, at 8:30 p.m.
The use of Bovard auditorium by the SC thespians has been abandoned for the duration because of the expense involved and because the naval air cadets now being trained on this campus, often use the auditorium for a classroom,
Joan Miles, director of the Drama Workshop, announced yesterday.
PRESENT THREE PLAYS “From now on, Touchstone will be referred to as the Touchstone little theater, and we are going to present all our plays in the future from this stage,” she declared.
“These Three Tonite” is actually^! three plays of one act each and with different group of actors taking part in each play.
Admission to the performance will be at the price of 25 cents for ASSC book holders and 35 cents for all others. Tickets go on sale in the Student Union today.
STAMP SALE PRODUCES
As a result of the workshop’s production of “George Washington Slept Here,” $400 was raised by the sale of war stamps, and a special report was made to the treasury department officials by a member of the Los Angeles office of the bureau of internal revenue concerning SC’s contribution to the war effort'.
Money from Saturday’s show will be used to redecorate parts of Touchstone to fit it for future productions.
Feature of “These Three Tonite” is the last act which is a special musical written by Ashmead Scott, member of the workshop, titled “The Last Boat from Jersey.”
