False Alarm! Be Happy, NoJappy
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 3—<U.R) —An erroneous report that a large number of unidentified surface vessels was sighted 450 miles off the coast of California today touched off a seven-hour navy alert and a flurry of unfounded rumors.
Navy personnel at liberty hastily returned to duty at their stations in the San Francisco bay area following a report by a U. S. navy patrol that the unidentified vessels were observed offshore at dusk last night.
Vice-Admiral John W. Green-slade, commandant of the western sea frontier, issued a statement terminating the alert and announcing that the report of the vessels was “considered in error.”

B urns; Old College Just Shudders
Elation soured rapidly into disillusionment yesterday when a column of oily, black smoke was discovered to be the burning of the Crown Sheet Metal works instead of Old College. #
Eager, alert Trojans poured from surrounding buildings to watch the conflagration. Student Union waitresses suddenly found themselves with a mass of deserted cokes. An estimate by the cashier showed that the fountain was emptied in 63 seconds flat by local pyromaniacs.
Cause of the fire still remains a mystery even to the firemen. One theory is that an acetylene tank, used for welding, exploded. William Holland, owner of the shop, said he had no fire extinguisher, and it was 20 minutes before water was used to quench the flames.
After viewing the charred wreckage of his plant, Owner Holland said, “I guess I’ll have to look for a new job.”

The band will open the program with the .selection “Victory,” arranged by Dr. Cailliet and based on Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony. This will be followed by the “Star
“Homage to U.S.C.,” Cailliet; and “All Hail,” Wesson.
Dr. Cailliet, who formerly arranged for Leopold Stokowski and RCA Victor, is considered to be one of the outstanding men in the country in his line. Although burdened with many other duties, he has spent long hours making special arrangements for this year’s band.
Many local critics have made the statement that the present band is Troy’s best musical unit in some
