“Is Ernest Hemingway going to lecture today? It can’t be Walt Whitman—he’s grey. Maybe it’s B. O. Plenty.”
Such varied speculations may well be flashing around classrooms during the next three weeks, but the chances are that they will be far from accurate.
Much more likely, the mysterious bushy stranger inspiring such guesses, unidentifiable behind a luxurant growth of facial fura, will only be an ambitious Sigma Nu, striving to increase his chances Ho walk off with one of the prizes come Mar. 30.
On that date, at the ADPi-Sig-ma Nu Cabaret dance, one of the notable events will be the beard contest. ADPi experts in the art of detecting outstanding qualities of hue, texture, density, style, and trim will choose winners in three classifications; the longest, best looking, and funniest tonsorial

In the meantime, the campus wHl be dotted with everything from precisely trimmed Van Dykes to flaring Guess-Whos, or perhaps What-is-its. And Mar. 30, will they come off? Even the hardworking Sigma Nu, with
His tonic, lotions, and DDT powder doesn’t have the answer to that one. It may be that three weeks of mustache cups and sharp-pointed scissors will turn his hedge shears to putty when he awakes on the 31st and views his masterpiece for the lasttime.
“Monty Wooley, King George V, and Rasputin can testify to the desirability of beards,” he will say to himself. “They're just the thing for mountain climbing, riding in an open cocqpit, or short blankets. Why should I be different?”
Frontier days have come to SC. Give them an admiring smile, a wave of the hand, and just call them “Beavers.”

Lindsay Relates Guerrilla Fight Against Japan
Support of Chinese Aided Group Fighters In Warring Triumph
Dr. Michael Lindsay, professor of economics at Yenching university from *1938 to 1941 and former Press Attache at the British Government Headquarters in Chungking, described two and a half years during which he lived and worked with Chinese guerrillas at a luncheon of the Men’s Faculty club today.
Dr. Lindsay visited the guerrilla areas during 1938 and 1939 and saw this type of warfare develop. When Pearl Harbor took place he was in Yenching and subsequently went into the hills himself.
A Chinese general, knowing that Dr. Lindsay had made an extensive hobby of radio, requested him •o stay and work for him, training technicians, and supervising and installing equipment and Installations. Dr. Lindsay was in the province of Hopei for one year and spent the remaining year and a half of his life with the guerrillas in the province of Yenan.
In describing the work of the guerrillas and the part they played in the war against Japan—at one ; time, more than half the Jap army was engaged in unsuccessful efforts j to stamp out the guerrillas—Dr. Lindsay emphasized the meagerness of material at hand to afti the j Chinese in their fight. Often they had to rely entirely on local arse-I nals to provide them with ammu-I nition. Consequently, the whole j guerilla strategy was aimed at j fighting small battles against inferior forces, ambushes, and raids. Notwithstanding the punitiveness of j these small efforts, the effect as a whole was large.
An indispensable factor in the success of the guerrilla warfare, according to Dr. Lindsay, was the (Continued on Page 4)
A Fiji islands and an Eskimo fiddle, a Seminole knee rattle, and a Buddhist prayer drum comprise only a small part of a unique collection of primitive and obsolete musical instruments recently donated to SC by Albert Gale, and now being exhibited in the Hancock Foundation building.
By way of introduction. Mr. Gale, now retired and residing in Ontario, Cal., was formerly on the faculty of the School of Music at the University of Washington and the Western State Teachers college, Oklahoma. For the last 10 years his collection of instruments has been on temporary loan to the Los Angeles County museum. Its permanent home is intended to be in exhibit cases of SC’s future music building.
The reconstruction at the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893 of small villages of distant parts of the world directed Mr. Gale's attention to this st*ject. The native Instrumentalists and dancers of these exotic peoples prompted him to sketch the melodies which they played and chanted, and then to begin collecting the Instruments on which to play these melodies.
Visiting some 30 American Indian tribes and traveling abroad en-nabled Mr. Gale to accomplish this.
In his collection are a number of Indian rattles, a type of knee rattle attached to the Indian’s legs and moved imperceptibly beneath their long skirts, producing a quiet and dainty sound which is supposed to have religious and healing significance. Mr. Gale tells a curious story of having seen a Hopi Indian snake dance actually terminate in a downpour of rain out of a clear blue sky.
His most remarkable rattle Is a medicine rattle from the Haida Indians of Alaska. The beads inside which produce the sound are of ancient Russian origin, thus indicating early communication across the Bering Straits.
Mr. Gale believes the most important result gained from his work is “the study of racial relationships through the study of comparative music.”
Also included in the collection are the original bugle used by Custer in his famous last stand and the original fife used at Bunker Hill in 1775.

Stalin Slashes At Churchill
LONDON, March 13.—d'.P)—Generalissimo Josef Stalin tonight personally answered Winston Churchill, accusing him of fomenting “new armed, intervention’’ against eastern Europe. Stalin asserted bluntly that if Churchill and his friends in Great (Britain succeeded tn doing so they would be beaten.
Calling Churchill’s speech at Fulton, Mo., a sort of ultimatum to the non-English speaking world, Stalin said:
There is no doubt that the setup of Mr. Churchill is a set-up for war, a call to war with the Soviet Union.”
Stalin termed Churchill’s speech a dangerous act which jeopardized cooperation among nations and said the former Prime minister's attitude was incompatible with the 20-year Russian-British alliance. Thus, by implication. Stalin invited the British labor government to repudiate Churchill and even hinted he was ready to tear up the alliance treaty if necessary.
Stalin made his statement, a bitter personal and political denunciation of his wartime Big Three colleague, in an interview in question and answer form published in the newspaper Pravda, organ of the Russian communist party. The interview was broadcast by the Moscow radio and recorded here.
The Russian generalissimo and premier compared Churchill in detail with Hitler and, calling his speech a x>rt of ultimatum to the vast majority of peoples who do not speak English, emphasized that Churchill was supported in his views by friends not only in Britain but also in the United States.
DiplomaUc quarters at once recalled, although no connection was mentioned or indicated in Stalin's interview, that President Truman was on the speaker’s

Dean Raubenheimer Slates Re-Opening of Counsel Aid
Under the direction of Paul E. Hadley, instructor in international relations, an educational counseling program for lower division and new students in the College of Letters, . Arts, and Sciences, which was commenced last term, has gotten underway again this week. Dean Albert S. Raubenheimer has announced.
This counseling service seeks to aid students plan programs for future terms which will satisfy the various general requirements of the university for graduation, and also to include the specific requirements of the different departments at SC.
Mr. Hadley stated that group meetings, such as the several successful ones held during the winter term, have not taken place. He pointed out, however, that students who are puzzled con-oerntng fhe requirements which
they must meet, should seek to make an appointment for an interview with him at his office, 207 Administration.
Office hours of Mr. Hadley are from 9 to 10 a.m., 11 to 12 noon, and afternoons from 2:15 to 3:15. Interviews may be arranged for other hours.
Not only newcomers to the university but all lower division students who are having difficulty with their programs are urged to make use of this educational counseling service provided by the university.
The counseling was inaugurated when university heads learned that many students were finding difficulty in attempting to plan a long-range program which would meet all university requirements while still leaving room for the student s own desired objects-
Eleanor Roosevelt To Speak in LA.
A first-hand report on the EUn-don meeting of the United Nations organization will be given to residents of tftiis area when Eleanor Roosevelt appears at the Shrine auditorium on Saturday evening, Mar. 23, according to Herman Lissauer, director of the Modem Forum, under whose auspices Mrs. Roosevelt will speak.
Pointing out the pertinence of both subjects, Lissauer declared.
Certainly no one is so capable of giving a resume of the events that transpired in London as Mrs. Roosevelt, and if she does speak on the problem of Europe’s refugees and displaced persons, we can be sure that it will be handled from a clear-cut view of one who has 3een the picture at close hand.’*
It has been announced also that Mrs. Roosevelt will comment upon the recent Missouri speech made by Winston Churchill.
Tickets for Mrs. Roosevelt's lecture are now on sale at the Modern Forum office in the Philharmonio building, Mutual 0048; or at the Southern California Music company, 737 South Hill, Tucker 1144. Price* range from 90 cents to S2.40.
