Bear Lake chosen as conference site
Plans for a campus-wide program to bring religion to all Trojans and to make provision for the spiritual needs of all SC students were described by Don Gibbs, president of the Council of Religion, as part of the work of this student group, which held its first meeting yesterday.
Gathering at their weekly meet-
ing, the members of the council discussed .the extent of religion on the campus, and made plans for the fall term. Virginia Hartunian, vice-president, recalled the large response to last year's spiritual opportunities.
First on the agenda of the group will be a conference at Big Bear. More .than 60 members of the council will spend the weekend of Nov. 17 in the mountains for the purpose of drawing up the term's schedule of religious activities and becoming better acquainted with one another. Past conferences nave been held at Balboa and Pacific Palisades
During ,the conference, members of the council will decide which of the four commissions, education, recreation, administration, and promotion. they wish to support, and the various commission chairmen will assign projects to be completed throughout the term.
Largest of the activities of the student Council of Religion will be Religion Emphasis week. New to incoming Trojans, but popular with upperclassmen, according to Gibbs, the week is set aside to show students how closely religion is connected with academic activities. An attempt is made to bring interesting speakers with student appeal and pertinent subjects to the campus, and to acqi aint students with college religious life.

Only 975 pom-pons were received for the last sale, and, since there were not enough, students were allowed to enter without them. “There are plenty to go around, however, and there is no reason why every woman can not have one,” states Madelyn Hale, president of Spooks and Spokes.
Each pom-pon will sell for 25 cents. Proceeds of the sale will go to the Mortar Board fund. Women who will sell the pom-pons are Patches Quaintance, Ginny Brumfield, Lois Stephenson, Virginia Lee Steitz and Anne Pearce.
“SC should feel indeed fortunate, as we are the only school on the west coast to secure pom-pons," added Miss Hale.

approximately 50 bids left at the ---
cashier's window. All students who plan to attend and have put off getting bids had better buy their bids as soon as possible.
“This is a splendid chance for new and old Trojans to become acquainted,” said Gordon Pearsons, one of the many people working to make this dance the perfect introduction to this season's social events.
The outstanding event of the evening is to be the program of college and fraternity songs. Norm Hawes, president of the sophomore class, reports that the SAEs, Phi Psis, Sigma Chis, Theta Chis, and Phi Sigs are the only fra-ternities that nave handed in their requests. If the other houses want their songs played, they should be turned in to the Knights office, 229 Student Union, by noon tomorrow.
Jackie Boice, vice-president of ASSC, and Brohammer say that the visitors from Cal are buying many
of the bids. The Golden Bear rooters are sure to enjoy themselves fully as much as the Trojans did up north earlier in the season, even if
they lose another game.
The dance is being held at the Riviera Country club in Santa Monica. Suits and ties are the acceptable dress for men and date dresses for the women. Dancing will be from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. to the music of Muzzy Marcelleno and his orchestra. The sophomore council has requested that there be no corsages of any type worn at the dance.
Under the chairmanship of Brohammer, the committee for the dance has been Norm Hawes, Gordon Pearsons, Tom Cosgrove, Keith Robinette, Fauilne Tevis, and Don Arthur. The special guests of the evening will be Dean Helen Hall Moreland, Dean Carl Hancey, Arnold Eddy, R. F. Stephens, and Robert Craig.

The CBs foUowed soon after to build the seventh fleet headquarters near Manila. He arrived back in San Francisco on V-J day, sailing into the bay just as the whistles began to blow announcing the end of the war.
The chief's talk will climax the Victory Chest drive at Troy. Football players from Cal, their student body president, George Briggs, raid vicepresident Pat Hendrickson, will be introduced, and Briggs will say a few words to the crowd.
