Fisher gallery opens one-man art exhibit
The Elizabeth Holmes Fisher gallery opens its doors this morning on a one-man show by Paul Laur-itz. president of the California Art club, the oldest organization of its kind in Los Angeles.
Born in Norway, Lauritz came to this state many years ago and has since specialized in painting California landscapes. According to Miss Winifred Poingdestre, curator of the Fisher gallery, Lauritz’s current exhibit might be titled “California in the 6pringtime.”
“Though Lauritz is perhaps a conservative artist,” said Miss Poingdestre, “his landscapes show both a knowledge of his subject and his ability to capture familiar settings on canvas.”
Among the paintings in the current show, “‘Afternoon Shadows,” and “After the Storm” are two of the coolest. The first pictures rolling California hills in the late afternoon, while the second shows waves breaking on a rocky coast. Lauritz’s lighting effects are particularly good, according to Miss Poingdestre.
“Spring Day," painted at the corner of Western avenue and Los Feliz boulevard, shows none of the urbanity of its location.
Perhaps the most familiar canvas in the show is “San Bernardino Mountains,” which carries the eye from the rocks in the foreground to the tall pines in the distance. The painting reveals Lauritz’s excellent sense of composition.
This one-man show will be on exhibit in the Fisher gallery until Aug. 31.

Amazons
. . . will hold their weekly dinner meeting at 4:30 at the Pi Kappa Alpha house this afternoon, announced Betty Coman, acting president.
That the war is one step closer to its end was the opinion expressed by Dr. Carlton C. Rodee, head of the political science department, in looking over the Italian upset of last week. “But I’m not making any rash guesses as to when that end will come/’ Dr. Rodee quickly added.
Mussolini resigned as head of the Italian government after placing before the Fascist grand council Hitler’s proposed plan of abandoning Rome, dividing Italy in half, and making a new stand against the Allies. The plan was rejected by the grand council and the Italian cabinet.
An Interesting fact to note, Dr. Rodee brought out, is that the council members were all Mussolini’s own appointees.
Guessing at II Duce’s next move Rodee thinks he probably went to the king to see if he could swing Hitler’s proposal, and, with his last hope dissolved, a quick exit was the order of the day. The government now in power is not truly a democratic one, as we understand it, Dr. Rodee said. The government before Mussolini’s rise to power was not a true democracy either but was moving toward it.
"me present administration under King Victor Emmanuel is a reactionist monarchy,” Dr. Rodee said. “Italy today is under a militarist ruler, not a Fascist,” he continued. “The masses of the Italian people are poor and this government hasn’t its roots in them." me population is supporting tbe government now because it has been able to shed the yoke of Fascism, but how long will the government be supported if the king reverts to too many militaristic and reactionary tactics is the question Dr. Rodee raises.
When asked what Germany intends doing, Dr. Rodee says he feels sure that Italy will be left in the lurch by Hitler but the Nazis will try to establish a defense line for themselves, probably in the north of Italy.
“Unconditional surrender and not neutrality should be the only terms the Allies hold out ror," Kodee strongly atnrmed. “If the Allies permit Italy to just check out of the war and remain neutral it will be harder for our forces to reach Germany, but if they are able to use Italy as another base it will be easier to overpower the Nazis.”
Present chaos told by Ross
Telling not the plan for the future but tbe problems which we must overcome today, Dr. Floyd H. Ross of the School of Religion interpreted Roussy de Sales’ “The Making of Tomorrow” at the weekly book interpretation yesterday.
Two conflicts rage within the world today, according to Dr. Ross’ interpretation. One is the nationalistic ideal or fundamental oneness of the individual country; the other is idealogistic or the overall relationship of countries and ideas.
“De Sales’ book,” Dr. Ross says, “is content to deal mainly with the nationalistic conflict.’ The fundamental problem, it appears, is one of morale.”
This nationalism, according to Dr. Ross, has become a poor substitute for spiritual unity. More attention has been turned toward it as a unifying force and less has been turned toward religion.
“Under nationalism, three main forces are at work in this world,” Dr. Ross said. “These are national -(Continued on Page Four)

NROTC
Beginning with the March, 1944, term, each Naval ROTC unit in the United States, including that at SC, will absorb between 50 and 60 V-12 trainees selected from the V-12 college program as a whole. The total 1450 men chosen will be taken from applicants who have completed the first two terms of curriculum l.
This is the only possible way by which navymen may receive commissions upon graduation from SC.
The following factors are to be considered in the selection of students at each university:
1.	Score on U.S. Navy test C-l (V-12 entrance test on general aptitude).
2.	College grades for the first term and one-half (24 weeks).
3.	Score on NROTC comprehensive test at the end of the first term.
4.	Recommendation of the commanding officer in terms of rating on military aptitude and leadership.
Only freshmen are eligible since requirements provide that students must have completed the first terms of curriculum 1 and new enrollees will have been here that length of time by March, 1944. The same opportunities will b« open to trainees each term following the completion of the necessary units of work.
Applications will be submitted some time this month at a date to be specified later.
