Petroleum Executives To Describe Industry
Representing more than 40 years experience in the oil industry, two of the featured speakers on tomorrow afternoon’s oil industry panel, to be held at 3:15 in Harris hall, are Hugh Colvin, economist with the Union Oil company, and David Day, vice president in charge of manufacturing and pipeline transportation for the Richfield Oil corporation.
Mr. Colvin, former member of the Caltech faculty and a specialist in oil economics, will discuss the economic significance of the oil industry. The vital role of oil in shaping a national economic program will be the central theme of his talk.
«
The manufacture of oil products is the topic on which Mr. Day will I lead the discussion. An engineer and oil technologist, he will describe the oil refinery, manufacturing processes, and methods used to make the many different petroleum products. He will also touch on the administrative set-up of a large re-| finery and the role played by research in the manufacture of oil products.
Designed to acquaint the students with the many vocational opportunities available in the oil industry, the panel is being sponsored jointly by members of the SC faculty and

SLIPS MISSING
“Some car owners, intentionally or otherwise, remove or turn registration slips on the steering column so that reading them is impossible on a locked car. This, of course, is a violation of the California vehicle code.”
Thoughtlessness is still the main source of parking trouble, according to Dr. Zech. One student, he stated ( has received four tickets, yet lives only three blocks from the campus.
REASONS FOR DELAY
“One of the reasons for .the delay in sending the citation letters

This action is necessary as a result of the failure of the driver of the automobile to report as required in connection with a recent automobile parking violation on the campus of this university.

WASHINGTON, Apnl 21.—ttT-E)— Economic stabilized Chester Bowles tonight let loose another blast at those who would kill price control while there is still danger of “destructive” inflation and predicted defeat for the “out-and-out profiteers licking their chops’’ over an anticipated increase in prices.
Following up two torrid attacks Thursday and Saturday on the house-approved OPA extension bill, he said in a statement that the country is alarmed over passage of the measure which would '“make impossible” the job of holding down the cost of living.
CALL TO ARMS
In what obviously was both a call to arms .to “everyday citizens' and ajplea to the senate to knock out of the house bill a series of cnp» pling amendments, he said that congress “has been under tremendous pressure from a well-Tinanced and powerful minority of lobbyists” seeking to kill OPA.

The row attributes this to what it terms non-org lack of interest in campus activities; ISA says it is due to the fact that SC politics are sewed up by 28th street. WHAT IS ISA?
Just what is this ISA. which keynotes its platform with “government action, student action, and social action?’’ Ostensibly, its purpose at Troy is to place as many non-orgs as possible in student offices in the coming elections and to “reform” the present ASSC government setup which it brands "inadequate and inept.” In its broader applications it has a leftist tone as regards politics on the national

Even greater than the need for school supplies, however is the pressing demand for food and clothing.

The production, one of a regular series of one-act plays, will consist of three short works, “The Golden Doom,” “Submerged,” and “The Valiant.” Each play will be staged by a graduate student in, drama, and will provide valuable experimental work for cast and staff.

WASHINGTON, Apnl 21.—ttT-E)— Economic stabilized Chester Bowles tonight let loose another blast at those who would kill price control while there is still danger of “destructive” inflation and predicted defeat for the “out-and-out profiteers licking their chops’’ over an anticipated increase in prices. Following up two torrid attacks Thursday and Saturday on the house-approved OPA extension bill, he said in a statement that the country is alarmed over passage of the measure which would '“make impossible” the job of holding down the cost of living. CALL TO ARMS In what obviously was both a call to arms .to “everyday citizens' and ajplea to the senate to knock out of the house bill a series of cnp» pling amendments, he said that congress “has been under tremendous pressure from a well-Tinanced and powerful minority of lobbyists” seeking to kill OPA.

ROW STARTING SLOW Although probably the most disorganized group on campus in these initial days of political tit-tat-toe are the “organized” students from the environs of the row, the belief of ISA’s leaders that the 28th street crowd represents a solid front since 1931 has a non-org been student body president, and in the intervening years the battle for this No. 1 job in student body government has come to be a see-saw affair between fraternity men. The row attributes this to what it terms non-org lack of interest in campus activities; ISA says it is due to the fact that SC politics are sewed up by 28th street. WHAT IS ISA? Just what is this ISA. which keynotes its platform with “government action, student action, and social action?’’ Ostensibly, its purpose at Troy is to place as many non-orgs as possible in student offices in the coming elections and to “reform” the present ASSC government setup which it brands "inadequate and inept.” In its broader applications it has a leftist tone as regards politics on the national collecting the university’s share of the $1,000,000 national goal, according to Don Blank, chairman of thS drive. The campanign got off to a fly ing start when the Methodist Wesley club came through with $350, an average of $4 per member, right at the beginning. AWS followed up with a large contribution. $75 FROM PHARMACY Yesterday the College of Pharmacy turned in $5 from students who asked that their donation be used to purchase laboratory equipment for schools which had suffered damage to their plant during the war. “iz--The table set up outside Student Union to accept individual gifts made good progress at first, but gradually contributions fell off. Blank estimates that there are still a great number of students who have not yet offered anything. FOOD, CLOTHING NEEDED Even greater than the need for school supplies, however is the pressing demand for food and clothing. Auditions Held For Thespians All Trojans interested in treading the boards for the Touchstone players’ next production are asked to appear for auditions today in the Touchstone theater from 3 to 5 pjn. The production, one of a regular series of one-act plays, will consist of three short works, “The Golden Doom,” “Submerged,” and “The Valiant.” Each play will be staged by a graduate student in, drama, and will provide valuable experimental work for cast and staff. “This is not a closed proposition.” stated William Sowers, production manager of the players. “Not only drama students, but all other Trojans interested in acting are eagerly A WSSF representative in China 30u*^t *or our productions and which they must crack has sent and world scenes.
