Included in the activity book, which sells for the astonishingly low price of $5.50, are tickets for five football games with a chance to participate in the great new Trojan rooting section of civilians and trainees. “This year, because there are so many more men on campus,” Caldwell explained, “it is possible to plan more spectacular between-halves attractions. Our new yell leaders are already planning surprises for the first game.” “September 20 is the last day to get the book at the reduced rate; after that, who knows?” he said. “The book may be bcught any time day or night, well, day anyway, in the Student Union bookstore at ^*Khe window marked Cashier, and the nice lady won’t bite .you, for she likes to sell these books as they are such splendid values. “Just like dollar day,” she exclaims as she wraps up a dozen for a customer. cott describes icily s terrain ‘Sicily, the land of invasion” will the subject of an illustrated lec-ure given by Dr. Florence R.

It was from these 155mm Long Toms located on the Sicilian shores of the narrow straits of Messina that much of the ammunition was fired. Men-in-white receive pay, shots Saturday It was a case of the men-in-white meeting the man-inwhite last Saturday morning when approximately 800 navy trainees, including the V-12 unit and the NROTC, were vaccinated for smallpox and inoculated for tetanus. But the big news was, from the sailors’ angle, that they got paid, and in cash too this time. --- ASSC plans trainees picnic Religious dubs unify meeting Holding what will be the first in a series of joint meetings, the Roger Williams, Westminister, and Campbell clubs will meet for a luncheon today from 12:25 p.m. to 1:15 p.m. in the University Methodist church. Speaker for the meetings will be Dr. Perry P. Rice, former executive secretary for the Christian churches in Chicago. Dr. Perry is also one of the founders of the Disciples Divinity house, graduate students dormitory, at the University of Chicago. The anti-tetanus shot will be followed by another injection two weeks from Saturday. At a later date, the men will begin a series of four typhoid shots, given at weekly intervals. The pay, as usual, will be given out after an interval of a month. No bad effects are expected from either of the medical precautions taken last Saturday morning. While some men might experience a slight reaction from the smallpox vaccination, the only noticeable effect of the antitetanus shot will be an arm that might feel a little rubbed. The T shot is a muscular injection. This tetanus inoculation was purely to build up the anti-bodies in a man’s system in case he were seriously injured, as in battle. Immediately after his injury, the man would be exposed to tetanus germs because everything around him would be, medically speaking, dirty. The more anti-bodies in his system, therefore, the better the man’s chances of survival will be. Due to the rapid advances in medicine at the battlefront, 97 per cent of the wounded now survive. This anti-tetanus procedure at SC is one of many precautions that is assuring the man in uniform of the best in medical care. Navy and marine trainees who are new to SC this semester, both transfer students and incoming freshmen, will be honored guests at a picnic next Suaday, Sept. 12, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. in Griffith park, according to Leta Galentine, ASSC vice-president, in charge of the affair. Food will be provided by the sororities, with Pat Ebey, Delta Zeta, as chairman. Lists of the approximately 500 men invited to the picnic have been posted in the various barracks. Women with cars who would like to attend the picnic will be signed up in the dean of women’s office, the student body office, or the Y house. Part of Griffith park has been reserved for this ASSC picnic, with Bob Stevens making the arrangements with the park. The trainees will be able to visit the zoo, play badminton or shuffleboard, ride the merry-go-round, go swimming, or participate in various other activities, according to Miss Galentine. MacArthurs forces attack Jap-held Lae GEN. MacARTHUR’S FIELD HEADQUARTERS, NEW GUINEA, Sept. 6.—(U.P.)—-Gen. Douglas MacArthur Saturday led a powerful land, sea, and air assault against the Japanese base of Lae, main enemy stronghold on the north-- west coast of New Guinea. Two sororities plan Friday's entertainment Tenth in a weekly series of recreationals for servicemen and civilians will be a plantation party this Friday night at the Zeta Tau Alpha and Chi Omega sorority houses on 28th street, with dancing, refreshments, and women in gingham dresses as special features, according to Leta Galentine, ASSC vice-president. A special invitation has been extended to all professors, deans, head residents, and commanding officers for the plantation party, said Miss Galentine. The two sororities, which are next door neighbors, will have a combined open house. There will be dancing in both houses. Florine Harris is in charge for the Chi Omegas. Badges of the official Friday night hostesses will be worn for the first time at the plantation party, said Miss Galentine. Last Friday night’s double header, when the first all-U sing followed by an all-U recreational was held, provided a full evening for all attending. Trojans assembled in Bovard auditorium at 7 p.m. for the sing, which was under the sponsorship of marine trainees headed by Warren Steinberg. Three new songs written by marine trainee Raymond Page were featured in the evening’s entertainment. Bob Signorelli introduced “There in My Heart,” while a platoon of “singing marines” presented “My name is Yankee Doodle” and “On the Road to Paris Island.” Signorelli also sang “I Left My Heart at the Stage Door Canteen.” With Sally Unmack as chairman, the latter part of the evening was spent in dancing and sports activi ties at the gym. Ping pong, badminton, volley ball, and swimming were under Stuart Skeele’s direction. The latest popular recordings provided music for the danc-ing|.in the gym. Taking to the field with his highest-ranking military aides in the southwest Pacific, MacArthur personally directed the coordinated landing drive that sent picked assault troops storming ashore east of Lae early Saturday morning under a powerful bombardment from covering warships and protective aerial formations. Heavy forces of MacArthur’s ground troops followed up the initial invasion with a landing northeast of Lae, effectively cutting the Japanese garrison off from direct communication with its supporting positions at Finschhafen. “The movement to invest and isolate Lae is. now under way,” a confident headquarters communique announced today. Tne first assault troops fought their way ashore in the early hours Saturday under cover of a smoke screen laid down by warships that convoyed the invasion fleet, while the big naval guns hammered the Japanese shore defenses and Alhqd warplanes battled enemy aircraft overhead. - Twenty-one Japanese bombers and fighters that attempted to smash the landing boats were shot down by MacArthur’s fighter screen, at a cost of two Allied planes. Trojan Knights render service With the approach of the 1943 football season, the Trojan Knights, junior and senior men’s honorary service organization, is this week donning its new wartime identification, which consists of maroon and gold arm bands in place of the prewar Knight sweater. A masculine counterpart of the Amazons, Trojan Knights serve the university by officiating at assemblies, football games, and rallies and by organizing all football rallies and card stunts. In this latter capacity, the Knights arrive at the coliseum approximately five hours before game time to place instruction cards in the bleachers. At all football contests, the Knights are guardians of the traditional emblems of the University of Southern California, the Trojan sword and banner. The banner, which is 25 feet long, consists of the letters SC in gold on a maroon background. The sword is pointed at the goal toward which the Trojan team is battling. . Guiding the Kmghts’ activities for this year is Bob Fisk, Sigma Alpha Epsilon president, member of the ASSC senate, the men’s council, and Skull and Dagger. He is also rally chairman, Sigma Sigma president, and past chairman of the interfraternity council. Requirements for membership in the Knights include the completion of 60 units of credit and a grade point average of 1.0. Admission is by interview of the members. The sophomore auxiliary of the Trojan Knights is the Squires, an organization formed to assist the junior-senior service group. The Squire arm band is a blaek circle with a white Trojan band. Rae Rawlins, NROTC trainee and member of SAE, heads the sophomore honorary. School term opens for owls Subjects pertinent to the war are to be featured by University College, evening division of Troy, in the 12-week term beginning Sept. 13. Field codes used by the Central Powers during World war I will be included among four courses in cryptography and cryptanalytics. Japanese, Chinese, and Mayalan as background for interpreters will supplement six divisions of rehabilitation of the war wounded including occupational therapy and placement of the handicapped in employment. Subjects in civil aeronautics for commercial airline executives, air hostesses, meteorology and navigation have been introduced in addition to fields of architecture and fine arts, science, education, * nd other courses which have beenles-tablished in the college curricula. SC professor gets new duties Dr. Osman R. Hull, professor of education at SC, has been retained by the Montebello unified school district as part-time consultant and official secretary to the board of education there, according to an announcement made Friday. Dr. Osman succeeds Dr. Cecil D. Hardesty, who has been granted a military leave of absence. Dr. Hull while employed by the district will maintain his duties and professorial status at the university. Kepler talks at assembly Speaking to an all-U religioui assembly Thursday, in Bovard auditorium is Dr. Thomas S. Kepler, professor of philosophy and religion at Lawrence college, Wise. Dr. Kepler has spoken at several colleges while on a tour of the west coast. For his topic here, the doctor has chosen “Living in a Time of Crisis.” According to those who have heard him speak, Dr. Kepler hai a forceful personality and platform presence. Having traveled throughout the United States and Europe, he is in national demand as a college speaker. Dr. Kepler has attended Boston university where he received his BA. degree and Cornell college, receiving his STB and Ph.D. degrees there. Besides speaking before the student body. Dr. Kepler will address audiences at the third annual Ministers’ week. 15-m.Lnu.te sleep real, but holiday only dream Labor Day, traditional compensation day for the working masses, is not being observed on the Trojan campus today, a fact wl?ich is all too obvious. But the working Trojans have received some compensation, for today marks the new 53 minute, “get up 20 minutes later” time schedule. Time was (last week) whe® classes extended themselves over 65 long, dreary minutes. But today a new scintillating, time-juggling creation is in effect with classes starting at 8 and 9 a.m., and so on until lunch time. After an hour and a half lunch period, classes will resume at 1:30 p.m. and continue until 7th period which begins at 3:30 and ends at 4:23. Trainees will be allowed 15 minutes more sleep, thus hitting the deck at 0545 instead of the famous 0530. So while civilians are getting 20 minutes more sleep, trainees are still getting robbed. As there is a slight difference between 15 and 20 minutes, the question of the week is: What is the navy going to do with those five extra minutes?
