Hancock Group Offers Varied Musical Show
Ensemble to Present Popular Compositions On Program Tonight
The Hancock ensemble of the university will be presented in one of the regular evening concerts tonight at 8:30 in Hancock auditorium, under the direction of its conductor, William Strobridge.
Tickets will be reserved for the
public at the information desk in Hancock hall until 8:15. No tickets will be needed for admittance after that time.
Soloists to be featured this evening are George-Ellen Ferguson,
soprano, and Lisa Minghetti, violinist.
A well-balanced progam has been arranged, which will include such numbers as the choral-prelude “In Thee Is Joy,” Bach: theme and variations from 6vmphonie concer-tante in C minor, Mozart; “Thine Forever” from “II re pastore,” Mozart; Divertimento in F, Schubert; Prelude and Fugue in E Minor, Mendelssohn; “Ver la Source dan le bois,” Tourmier; two dances from “Sahdjl,” Still; “Lo Here .the Gentle Lark,” Bishop; and “Memories of Childhood,’' Pinto.
Stephen De'ak. cellist, and John Crown .pianist, will be heard in a sonata recital presented by this same foundation on the evening of Wednesday, Mar. 27, at 8:30.
He also stated that official figures show that enrollment for the spring term is crowding a record-breaking 12,000 mark, and should surpass this number by deadline time.
Applications are still being accepted from all students who desire a change in class programs. In order to do so, however, a student must have the permission of the class instructor, and a statement that the class is not already filled to capacity. A fee of $2 is being charged in all class revisions.
Veterans have been mainly responsible for SC’s large enrollment with an estimated 7000 ex-service-men entered for this term. This figure will boost the university’s veteran attendance to tops among universities ln the nation.
According to the Associated Collegiate Press service as of Feb. 27, SC ranked sixth in national standings. Minnesota, with 5.500 vets topped the list, and New York university was second. Pittsburgh, Texas university. University of Washington, and SC followed in that order.
Last term's enrollment, itself, a record-breaking total, reached 10.795. Veterans made up about one-
fourth of this figure, with 2500 registered, while this term should find their enrollments making up over one-half of the student body.
Kn.igh.ts Offer Freshmen Dig
Ivan Scott’s 9-piece orchestra will be the feature attraction at the Knight-sponsored dig scheduled for the men’s gymnasium Friday night, it was announced yesterday by Norm Hawes, chairman.
Beginning at 8:30 p.m., the dig has been planned especially for freshman and other students new to fhe university. Students that have attended the university previously are asked not to attend, as facilities are limited.
"It will be a fine opportunity for new students to get acquainted with their university colleagues.” stated Hawes. “The Knights are doing everything possible to make the dig a gala occasion, one that will be profitable to all.”

Redlands Awards Bogardus Degree
Dr. Emory S Bogarus. dean of the Graduate School and director of the School of Research, received an honorary degree of doctor of huipane letters at the mid-term graduation of the University of Redlands.
Dr. Bogardus was the speaker at the commencement, and spoke on the subject “The Marks of an Educated Citizen.”
Dr. Bogardus has been at SC since 1911. He succeeded R D. Hunt as dean of the Graduate School. He was previously professor of sociology and former editor of the Social Research university edition.
'Junior' Visits Student Union; Books Vanish
Well, well, Junior’s back in business again. Who’s Junior?
Por the benefit of the newly enrolled students who haven t had the pleasure of meeting up with him or his tactics, Junior is one of SC’s top trouble makers. He’s not the ficticious character Red Skelton dreamed up, nor one of Walt Disney’s creations, or a Rube Goldberg oddity. Ed C. Beaumont, a mechanical engineering major, can verify this statement.
Again attracted by the pickings of thousands of students intent on getting an education, and not worrying about him, Junior seized another opportunity to stir up trouble. He up and walked off with Beaumont’s lecture notebook, his Harbrace Handbook, and copies of “Technical Drawing” and “Writing from Observation.”
Yes, you guessed it—Junior’s a thief, and a bold one at that.
Panel to Air UNO Tasks
upon Dean Emory S. Bogardus to introduce the speakers for the afternoon. Dr. Meng was the first to address the assembly. The underlying theme of his speech was closer individual International relations, especially between China and America,
Dr. Chih Meng, stressed the need of an all-out strategy for peace just as in war. He urged a continuation of an exchange of scholars and technicians between China and the United States, which has already sent 10,000 students to the far east since 1854.
In the past, according to Dr. Meng, the individual nations of the world have been too eager to approach all problems as a group. In the way of comparison, Dr. Meng brought out the similarity between relationships between tv/o persons and relationships betwaeii two nations. “It is much easier to establish peaceful relationships with a single person than with a large group of persons at once, and it is also much easier to make peace with one nation at a time,” said Dr. Meng.
“The most encouraging thing I find today is the increasing tendency toward international thought among the American people,” continued Dr. Meng. He lauded international travel and the free exchange of ideas. Dr. Meng broached his belief that “similarity of the fundamentals of national culture between nations will be (Continued on Page 3)

‘Absolutely Last Day For Auditioning/ Says Director Len Adelson
Science Has Assisted Philosophic Advances, Says Forum Speaker
Ghyka to Maintain that Moderns Compare Favorably with Classical Philosophers
Science’s influence on philosophy will be the theme of the speech to be presented this afternoon by Matila Ghyka,
professor of philosophy, in Bowne hall at 4:15.
Professor Ghyka will base his discussion on the fact that
the pessimistic view exists among
too many who claim that in comparison to Plato, Berkeley, Kent, and Hegel, no advances have been made on the philosophical front.
“Pure and experimental science contemporary philosophy, and this influence has acted in two quite opposite directions, separated roughly by the turn of the century,” Professor Ghyka states.
The deterministic materialism theory based on Laplace's conception that man could explain all by infinite knowledge of the particles of the universe can oe divided into three groups of mechanistic determinism, semi-material theory, and psycho-physical parallelism.
According to Professor Ghyka, those theories have been reincarnated in more recent concepts of

Student union. , ., . , ,
These theories have been based
in the past on scientific findings, bnt they have, in effect, been upset by the very advances in the scicnces. The new aspects of physics which have reduced particles to pure electricity have broken down these materialistic views and have nourished the vitalistic concept that has grown up since the turn of the century.
Professor Ghyka will stress the importance of this “mentalistic” view of something beyond the material as a setting force of this universe.
One of the most perplexing prob- Mr. Baker said that Duanes, who lems that faces the United States jS a lqS Angeles importer of South
I and the Western hemisphere, a. , . . „
. - . .f American goods and ardently pro-
matter that is also of much concern
j to the infant United Nations organization. will be examined tonight on KFIs 9:30-radio program, “The American Way.”
The topic of discussion for the four-man panel will be “What Is it all About in Argentina?” Two members of the SC staff, Dr. Carlton C. Rodee, head of the political science department, and Alonzo Baker, teaching assistant in politi-
I cal science and general studies, will represent the interventionist school of thought.
Opposed to them will be Francisco Duanes, Ecuadorean, who is a graduate of the College of Commerce of SC, and Dr. Osgood Hardy, professor of history at Occidental college and a South Am-
_ eriean affairs expert.
Argentina, will undoubtedly uphold that nation’s present policy.
The question about which most of the discussion is expected to revolve. Mr. Baker declared. Is “Should the United States and other United Nations intervene In Argentina’s affairs to prevent the establishment of a Fascist state under the leadership of Juan Per-on.”
“Dr. Rodee and I will contend that intervention by the United Nations to forestall the dictatorship that will result if Peron is permitted to continue his course without hinderance, is justifiable on the basis that Peron was an ally of Germany and Italy during the recent conflict,” Mr. Baker stated. (Mr. Baker referred to the expose
of Peron’s collaboration with the Axis powers which was revealed in a recent state department blue book.)
Dr. Handy, it is anticipated, will uphold the view of many prominent United States officials that intervention in Argentina’s internal affairs cannot be justified on any grounds. The essence of his contentions will probably be that Argentina will solve her own problems to the satisfaction of her Western-hemis p h e r e neighbors, and that intervention now would only antagonize the Argentine people and cause greater misunderstanding than already exists.
"The American Way,” a weekly feature of KFI. presents prominent and well-versed men discussing current topics of national and world significanee.
“Today is absolutely the last day for auditioning original composi- ; tions.” Adelson emphasized as he outlined instructions to the musicians.
“Lead sheets must accompany all songs. They will be returned later, and no song will be accepted without them. Composers are invited to bring their own accompanists if they wish.”
Harvey Edwards, show executive, said that all lyricists and arrangers are expected to attend the same meeting with yesterday's material selected and approved. We have ample songs to work on,” he added.
Latest communique from the Varsity show boss, Harvey Edwards, sets the pace for this afternoon with the following on the agenda:
Publicity chairmen, Mary Ann Mohlengraft and Sandy Sapin will meet in 418 Student Ui ion, 1:45 with publicity chief Tex Abbott to outline this week’s activities.
Costume designers and secretaries will assemble with Ray Rand, beginning at 2, in same room, for sign-ups. *
Lyricists and arrangers will meet with Lenny Adelson for assignments.
The professor claims that “vitalism has become the most coherent system in the actual state of scientific research.”

Redlands Awards Bogardus Degree Dr. Emory S Bogarus. dean of the Graduate School and director of the School of Research, received an honorary degree of doctor of huipane letters at the mid-term graduation of the University of Redlands. Dr. Bogardus was the speaker at the commencement, and spoke on the subject “The Marks of an Educated Citizen.” Dr. Bogardus has been at SC since 1911. He succeeded R D. Hunt as dean of the Graduate School. He was previously professor of sociology and former editor of the Social Research university edition. 'Junior' Visits Student Union; Books Vanish Well, well, Junior’s back in business again. Who’s Junior? Por the benefit of the newly enrolled students who haven t had the pleasure of meeting up with him or his tactics, Junior is one of SC’s top trouble makers. He’s not the ficticious character Red Skelton dreamed up, nor one of Walt Disney’s creations, or a Rube Goldberg oddity. Ed C. Beaumont, a mechanical engineering major, can verify this statement. Again attracted by the pickings of thousands of students intent on getting an education, and not worrying about him, Junior seized another opportunity to stir up trouble. He up and walked off with Beaumont’s lecture notebook, his Harbrace Handbook, and copies of “Technical Drawing” and “Writing from Observation.” Yes, you guessed it—Junior’s a thief, and a bold one at that. Panel to Air UNO Tasks upon Dean Emory S. Bogardus to introduce the speakers for the afternoon. Dr. Meng was the first to address the assembly. The underlying theme of his speech was closer individual International relations, especially between China and America, Dr. Chih Meng, stressed the need of an all-out strategy for peace just as in war. He urged a continuation of an exchange of scholars and technicians between China and the United States, which has already sent 10,000 students to the far east since 1854. In the past, according to Dr. Meng, the individual nations of the world have been too eager to approach all problems as a group. In the way of comparison, Dr. Meng brought out the similarity between relationships between tv/o persons and relationships betwaeii two nations. “It is much easier to establish peaceful relationships with a single person than with a large group of persons at once, and it is also much easier to make peace with one nation at a time,” said Dr. Meng. “The most encouraging thing I find today is the increasing tendency toward international thought among the American people,” continued Dr. Meng. He lauded international travel and the free exchange of ideas. Dr. Meng broached his belief that “similarity of the fundamentals of national culture between nations will be (Continued on Page 3) Musical Wares Will be Heard By Show Head e ‘Absolutely Last Day For Auditioning/ Says Director Len Adelson Science Has Assisted Philosophic Advances, Says Forum Speaker Ghyka to Maintain that Moderns Compare Favorably with Classical Philosophers Science’s influence on philosophy will be the theme of the speech to be presented this afternoon by Matila Ghyka, professor of philosophy, in Bowne hall at 4:15. Professor Ghyka will base his discussion on the fact that the pessimistic view exists among too many who claim that in comparison to Plato, Berkeley, Kent, and Hegel, no advances have been made on the philosophical front. “Pure and experimental science contemporary philosophy, and this influence has acted in two quite opposite directions, separated roughly by the turn of the century,” Professor Ghyka states. The deterministic materialism theory based on Laplace's conception that man could explain all by infinite knowledge of the particles of the universe can oe divided into three groups of mechanistic determinism, semi-material theory, and psycho-physical parallelism. According to Professor Ghyka, those theories have been reincarnated in more recent concepts of Members of Troy’s Sharps ’n Flats fraternity will display their. . original musical wares this after- automatic response, theories which noon before Lenny Adelson, Var- sti11 retain th* materialistic view sity show music director, and his Professor Ghyka will show that assi^ant, Richard Eshleman.

The new aspects of physics which have reduced particles to pure electricity have broken down these materialistic views and have nourished the vitalistic concept that has grown up since the turn of the century. Professor Ghyka will stress the importance of this “mentalistic” view of something beyond the material as a setting force of this universe. One of the most perplexing prob- Mr. Baker said that Duanes, who lems that faces the United States jS a lqS Angeles importer of South I and the Western hemisphere, a. , . . „ . - . .f American goods and ardently pro- matter that is also of much concern j to the infant United Nations organization. will be examined tonight on KFIs 9:30-radio program, “The American Way.” The topic of discussion for the four-man panel will be “What Is it all About in Argentina?” Two members of the SC staff, Dr. Carlton C. Rodee, head of the political science department, and Alonzo Baker, teaching assistant in politi- I cal science and general studies, will represent the interventionist school of thought. Opposed to them will be Francisco Duanes, Ecuadorean, who is a graduate of the College of Commerce of SC, and Dr. Osgood Hardy, professor of history at Occidental college and a South Am- _ eriean affairs expert. Argentina, will undoubtedly uphold that nation’s present policy. The question about which most of the discussion is expected to revolve. Mr. Baker declared. Is “Should the United States and other United Nations intervene In Argentina’s affairs to prevent the establishment of a Fascist state under the leadership of Juan Per-on.” “Dr. Rodee and I will contend that intervention by the United Nations to forestall the dictatorship that will result if Peron is permitted to continue his course without hinderance, is justifiable on the basis that Peron was an ally of Germany and Italy during the recent conflict,” Mr. Baker stated. (Mr. Baker referred to the expose of Peron’s collaboration with the Axis powers which was revealed in a recent state department blue book.) Dr. Handy, it is anticipated, will uphold the view of many prominent United States officials that intervention in Argentina’s internal affairs cannot be justified on any grounds. The essence of his contentions will probably be that Argentina will solve her own problems to the satisfaction of her Western-hemis p h e r e neighbors, and that intervention now would only antagonize the Argentine people and cause greater misunderstanding than already exists. "The American Way,” a weekly feature of KFI. presents prominent and well-versed men discussing current topics of national and world significanee. “Today is absolutely the last day for auditioning original composi- ; tions.” Adelson emphasized as he outlined instructions to the musicians. “Lead sheets must accompany all songs. They will be returned later, and no song will be accepted without them. Composers are invited to bring their own accompanists if they wish.” Harvey Edwards, show executive, said that all lyricists and arrangers are expected to attend the same meeting with yesterday's material selected and approved. We have ample songs to work on,” he added. Latest communique from the Varsity show boss, Harvey Edwards, sets the pace for this afternoon with the following on the agenda: Publicity chairmen, Mary Ann Mohlengraft and Sandy Sapin will meet in 418 Student Ui ion, 1:45 with publicity chief Tex Abbott to outline this week’s activities. Costume designers and secretaries will assemble with Ray Rand, beginning at 2, in same room, for sign-ups. * Lyricists and arrangers will meet with Lenny Adelson for assignments. The professor claims that “vitalism has become the most coherent system in the actual state of scientific research.” Knight Troy Skie rs To Assemble ^There will be a meeting of the Trojan Ski club planning committee tomorrow at 4 p.m. in the lobby of the Law building to reorganize for this term.
