The Squires, sophomore brothers of th* Trojan Knights, were organized in 1925 to assist the Knights in policing the campus, act as ushers at SC functions, and aid in the orienting of new students. The Knights were organized in 1921.
The motivating principal of both Knights and Squires is the ideal of service to the university and since I their inception they have grown into lone of the basic organizations of | the campus. The membership is drawn from all fraternities on the campus as well as the non-organized groups. The initiations Wednesday will increase the number of Squires to 64.

Parking Zone Sought by SC From Officials
Action on Permission To Use Boulevards Expected Next Week
“Troy's severe parking problem is by no means near a solution,” stated Robert D. Fisher, financial vice-president, “and definite steps have been taken to alleviate the present emergency.”
Foremost among the new measures designed to conserve vital parking space and promote efficiency is the lining of the area behind Science hall. Spaces were blocked off with wet lime Sunday, Mar. 3, under the supervision of Mr. Fisher. The parking lot was not chosen for any specific reason, but Is the largest area on campus, accommodating approximately 250 cars. Signs are tacked to various trees, spotted .throughout the park, with the warning: “Park in designated areas. Keep aisles open.”
Rains have washed the lime lines considerably, but they are still visible. Another series of showers, however, will necessitate new lines.
Trojans have responded to the drive very well, commented Dr. Carl Hancey, dean of men. “Through efforts of the Trojan Knights, who patrol the trial area two to four
times a day .tagging offenders, only
a dozen drivers have been found disobeying the rules in the two weeks we have been trying the program.”
Another possible solution to the parking strain is being negotiated by O. M. Chatbum, asssitant to the comptroller, under the direction of Mr. Fisher.
A week ago, Mr. Chatburn appealed to the Los Angeles Police department for permission to park on the south side of Exposition boulevard. “Nosed-in” parking would be used from Vermont avenue to Hoover boulevard, and would accommodate enough cars to ease the present tension on campus and would be near enough not to inconvenience the faculty and students.
“Action is expected the early part of next week,” Mr. Chatburn said. “To date, we have heard nothing of the matter.”
Wesleyans Plan 'Bow-Tie Brawl'
Sinatra and his neck, or rather the fancy ware he puts around it, will provide the theme for Wesley club's “Bow-tie Brawl” at the University church at 8 tonight. Prizes will be offered .to the men sporting both the most artistic and the most conservative neckwear creations.
According to Betty Fiske, president of Wesley club, any neck adornment goes, even the most weird ties will be proper and appropriate for the occasion.
An intermission program, staged by student talent, will feature the Voice. Club members say that no expense has been spared to obtain the swoon-man’s services. They assert that Frankie will be on hand, spurious or no.
Wesleyans promise good music for the dance, selecting the numbers from their record collection of 250 hLt parade tunes. Smooth and jive enthusiasts will both be offered their turn.
"We invite all those who attend the Red Cross variety show to amble over and partake of the festivities,” said Miss Fiske. “We guarantee a super show at one of the first all-U on-campus dances of the term.”
Suggested for women’s attire was, “Date dresses with heels, sweaters and oxfords, or any other wearing apparel.”
Refreshments will be served at intervals during the dance.
Educators Show Need For Youth Training
Returning from an air trip to the middle west that included attendance at a meeting of the American Association of School Administrators, and side trips to several mid-west universities, Dean Ernest W. Tiegs of University College reports a new emphasis among American educators
on providing the youth of the

Dig Planned For Veterans
The Trovets announced yesterday that the university is sponsoring a social get-together, under the auspices of President Rufus B. von KleinSmid, for all veterans on the campus.
The gathering, in the form of a dig, with refreshments, is planned for Saturday night, Mar. 30, in the Student lounge.
All veterans are invited to attend, and a special invitation is extended to all women veterans on the campus.
Entertainment will be provided by Hubert Finley, chairman of the Trovets social committee.
The dig will be the first this term planned to bring together all the SC veterans.
“Anyone with talent who would like to help out in the entertainment is mvited to leave his name at the Trovet office in the Student lounge,” Finley said.
Members of the Trovets will be in charge of all the arrangements for the affair.
country a sound basis for getting along toegther in later life.
Stressing “looking ahead in education” were such representative educators as Dr. William Russell, dean of Teachers college; Dr. E. W. Jacobson, president of the University of Louisville; Dr. Ernest Horn, University of Iowa; J. K. Norton, Teachers college; Eric Johnson, president of the United States Chamber of Commerce; Dr. Henry Lester Smith, Indiana university; and Charles Lake, superintendent of schools, Cleveland, Ohio, and president of the American Association of School Administrators.
An issue which is not new among educators as individuals, but which received its first emphasis within the association as a group was an insistence upon training and adjustment in personality to enable people to adjust to the complexities of current human living. This, If carried out, would, in the opinion of the association, result in better relation? among men. Going hand in hand with these aims, the association agreed that a worth-while program of education must also embrace a program for bettering the living conditions of all people everywhere.
Dean Tiegs points out that perhaps the greatest emphasis, however, was placed on the concept that “we must believe that we can achieve our own obpectives better by helping others, than by playing the lone wolf.” Further, it was agreed that in order to achieve this, teachers on every level must believe it to be true.
The role of the education administrator in reaching this goal must be to help set up curriculum on every level to give practice in the habit of living in the right way.
With the university’s College of Aeronautics under his personal direction at present, Dean Tiegs visited Purdue to study its aeronautical curriculum. Set up by Grove Webster, formerly with ,the United States government where he organized a part of the governmental flying programs, Dean Tiegs declares that Purdue has a “comprehensive curriculum, and fine facilities serving over 800 students.”
Swinging around to the University of Illinois, the dean voiced the prediction, “Illinois has one of the finest layouts, and will shortly develop into one of the outstanding colleges of aeronautics in the country.”

Madsen Meets Eleanor
Mrs. FDR Asks Peace By Collective Force
by Ruth >Madsen
“The world still believes that a certain amount of force is necessary, but only through collective force will it be possible for each nation to decrease the individual force that breeds war,” declared Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt in a press conference at the Beverly Wilshire hotel, yesterday.
the
“Gradual disarmament of nations of the world by a gradual pooling of forces will be very advantageous. In this way each individual nation will be able to put more resources into constructive things.
“However," she cautioned, “this disarmament will not happen next week.”
Mrs. Roosevelt, who is in Los Angeles to make a report on the United Nations organization at the Shrine auditorium tomorrow night, also stated that the participation of all the great nations of the world can arouse the interest of the peoples of the world, who under the League of Nations didn’t feel they had any responsibility.
“No organization can be successful unless the people back it up,” she said, “although I agree with Senator Pepper that it is also imperative that the Big Three get along.”
“Someday the atom bomb should be controlled by the United Nations organization,” commented the former First Lady, “but that day is not yet at hand.”
Mrs. Roosevelt would make no statement about the current control of the weapon, explaining that until we know the results of the atomic commission (to which
Collier’s Tomlinson to Speak
Among the outstanding speakers who will be heard at the 16th annual Women’s Civic conference Apr. 11 in Bovard auditorium, will be Edward Tomlinson, associate editor of Collier’s.
Nationally known as a radio commentator, Tomlinson is also the author of “The Other Americans.” He has covered the San Francisco and London conferences and for 23 years has been an adviser on inter-American affairs, traveling 300,000 miles by air in visiting South American countries. .
While completing his work at Edinburgh university for an advanced degree in economics, Tomlinson became convinced that the trade future of the United States lay in development of markets in South America. He supported his belief in a thesis that was recently condensed by Collier’s into a full-page editorial.
Determined to visit the continent whose economy he
knew so well at secondhand, Tomlinson secured introduc-

tions to leading figures in Brazil and Argentina, and
went there in 1922.
Twenty-two years of visits and friendships since his first trip have acquainted Tomlinson with every sector of South America, and its leaders, peoples, and problems.
Sic.ce his participation in the first inter - continent broadcasts, Tomlinson has been the NBC representative at every important Pan-American conference. He also has been special South American correspondent for the New York Herald-Tribune and its syndicate.
Director for several years of a program of. Latin-American folk music and folk tales for NBC, Tomlinson assembled for the network the largest library o f Latin - American music in the world.
He is now adviser and commentator on inter-American affairs for NBC and also is Collier’s “Other Americas” editor.
Bernard Baruch was recently appointed as United States representative), it would be impossible
to reach any conclusion.
Commenting on her recent trip to London as a member of the U. S. delegation to set up the machinery of the UNO, Mrs. Roosevelt stated that “today one doesn’t enjoy Europe, but one does find it very interesting.”
On the basis of her own observation during two and one half days in the American zone of Germany, Mrs. Roosevelt declared that the German people are suffering from hunger, but not from starvation.
“I am not so sure that this can be said of every zone,” she stated. “I am averse to sending more food to Germany before the other occupied countries are adequately supplied.” . •
“During the war the Germans lived comfortably on supplies from conquered countries, and people of even moderate incomes had much food stored away. Germany should be kept merely on a subsistence level, as the greatest danger of epidemics lies not in Germany but in those countries where resistance is lowest and starvation has been longest.”
Mrs. Roosevelt stated that she hopes to go to Russia next summer as a writer for United Features syndicate if the necessary details can be worked out.
Strays Postpone Choice of Queen
Final choice of the transplanted Trojane who will reign as queen of the Stray Greeks has been postponed until Tuesday, a spokesman for the organization announced.
The stray ones, members of fraternities without chapters on the campus, are unable to make their
choice today as originally planned— they just can’t make up their minds. Pictures of the candidates, who, like the Stray Greeks themselves, must have transfered from other universities, have been pouring into the group's office, 225 Student Union,
from the sorority houses and dormitories.
Mike Catalano, president, announced that the winner of the contest will be selected Monday night, with all members of the organization balloting.
sorority and fraternity member* will wait until 8 for their desserts.
“Since the Red Cross touches everyone in some way,"
Ginny Lee Steitz, Red Cross chairman, “we all will have a common interest in gathering tonight, as well as enjoying tha wonderful show Mary Ellen Medler has prepared.”
Miss Medler, president of tha School of Music, has searched for and found a wide variety of talent and has bound it together in a swiftly moving, colorful production. Catching the spirit of the last century in such acts as "By the Sea1* and a real melodrama, the cast has guaranteed to provide an evening of music, dancing and general fun which will long be remembered.
Doug Corbin will lead the theater orchestra in a special overture written by George Hyde and arrangements by Mat Doran and Frank Desby. Ruth KeUel will accompany some of the acts, and Carl Beaver will be at the organ.
"Last Tuesday I saw the m<t>n rehearsal of tha Review," aaid Dorsey Payne, fund drive chairman, "and it was better than I’d ever dreamed. The music m terrific, and the entire cast seems to have as much fun working as I had in watching. I know everyone else will feel the same way tonight."
While finishing toachee were being put ta the “Review” Red Cross representatives basOy contacting organizations and hunting, down faculty members for contributions, drive committee mem-bers meeting constantly to plot new avenues of attack, and posters being tied to tha bumpers af every car in sight, operations went steadily onward from the booth te front of Bovard.
Attended by Troeds, ram or sh»n^, the huge basket attracted over 200 people and is still dang business on a large scale. Each contributor departed a full-fledged member of she Red Cross, equipped with membership card, Red Cross pin, and a pamphlet on the ever-increasing activities of the organization.
Don McEachron, returning veteran and one of the many who placed a dollar in the basket, waa followed into the Student Union after making his contribution. "Looking over this pamphlet,” he said, "I find a lot of things about the Red Cross that I didn't know before. Red Cross helped me a lot while I was in the service, and I know it will continue to help me whenever I need it.”
Hadley Sets LAS Confab
Paul E. Hadley, instructor in international relations, yesterday afternoon held the first in the series of council meetings to instruct lower division students in tfie College of Letters, Arts, and Sciences te the general requirements of the university.
