Fraternity pledges will abandon their convertibles and flash up and down the row afoot at 5 this atternoon in the semi-annual pledge relay race sponsored by the Phi Kappa Sigma house.
Ligaments and muscles will strain as the neophytes fight for first place in the race and first place in the hearts of the sorority beauties who will line the curbs of 28th street and cheer for their favorite team.
There are four pledges entered from each house and the distance to be covered by each runner te a little more than 200 yards. Contestants will pass a baton as in a orthodox track meet, but track shoes will be ignored because of the concrete course.
f-EGGY CORNELL .... pretty please
pus more attractive and pleasant for everyone concerned,” said Carol Moss, in charge of the Amazons part in the campaign.
POSTERS AID DRIVE
Posters by Mary Jane Woodrow are being prominently displayed around school grounds and buildings, pointing out certain social graces and respects for the rights of others that should not be overlooked. The posters emphasize courtesy in parking and driving on campus, refraining from littering the lawns with trash, hogging tables in the student union cafeteria, and crowding in lines.
The week-long drive will end Friday night with a skit depicting the evolution of Trojan traditions of courtesy, presented by the Amazons in “Something for the Girls,” according to Miss Moss.
Inhabitants of the row making the long trek to their houses on foot will be given lifts by a special ride service from university library. This service will continue throughout the week until Friday evening.

Inspector Notes Improvements in Local Restaurant Conditions
Trojans Plan WSSF Race With Texas U.
The University of Texas has been challenged. It's a challenge which she may lose, provided the students of SC see fit to set the Longhorns back on their . . . well, pan-handles.
The “betcha we can give more than you can” dare which clattered over the telegraph lines last weekend was sent by the Trojan World Student Service fund committee as a challenge that this university can raise more funds for the coming Apr. 21-25. drive than can the cowboys and gals way down Austin way (you all). Both drives open next Monday.
“Now the $64 question is, whether the U. of Texas will accept.” said Keith Robinette, SC publicity director for the drive.
D.T. THERMOMETER
If the “I’m from Texas" scholars acc^Jt, the DT will run a day by day thermometer of how Tommy Trojan is making out in the financial roundup against the Longhorns.
The WSSF, according to Dick Thomas, regional chairman for that organization and front man for tlie coming drive, is an “American initiated student-to-student relief enterprise for supplies from the students of the United States to the poverty stricken students of Europe and Asia.”
“Never,” Thomas continued, “have the starving students of the world been more in need of assistance from their more fortunate American brothers than at the present time.”
TEN YEARS OLD
The WSSF. with present headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland, Thomas continued, started in 1937 during the Chinese-Japanese war when various American relief groups sent money and supplies to the students erf war-torn China.
In 1942, he said, after hostilities had swept through both Europe and Asia, and were succeeding in engulfing practically the entire world, the WSSF turned its attention toward peoples the globe over. Tfre WSSF works on the theory that “the future of man rests in the minds of the students of the world.” stated the local regional director.
The opening “please help” plea will be sounded next Monday at a jumpoff assembly, whether or not Texas accepts, according to committee chairmen Robinette, Bob Unruh, and Mary Neff.
“No local goal is being set as there is no limit to the needs of the world,” the chairmen commented.
Marked improvements in conditions of restaurant sanitation > in Los Angeles, and around SC particularly, during the past four years, were noted Friday by Joseph Sol-lins. assistant to the director of the Los Angeles bureau of sanitation.
Having been in the restaurant business in New York several years ago. Sollins is familiar with problems confronting sanitation enforcement and feels that “local conditions are as good as those existing in any city in the country.” SC AREA IMPROVED
“The area around SC was pretty bad two years ag:>.” said Sollins. “but that condition has been remedied. Restaurants in college areas are now neither worse nor better than those in other areas.”
In order to effectively control health conditions in Los Angeles Sollins explained that the sanitation bureau uses three separate activities in its work of control— special details, district inspectors.
and a food handlers training program.
Placing particular emphasis on the value of the special detail, Sollins declared that it has proven to be very effective in the three years it has been in existence. It is strictly an enforcement agency, he added, consisting of one food sanitation specialist and one or two inspectors in training. Thsir job is to make surprise checks in all districts. and they are authorized to issue city attorney citations or closing orders when necessary.
District inspectors operate under any one of nine district supervisors and are responsible for routine inspection of specifically assigned territories. Primarily interested in using salesmanship to convince food handlers of the value of sanitat:'on. Sollins pointed out that the inspectors are empowered to use leeal force it necessary.
Ordinarily a warning to the owner of an unsatisfactory condition is
i sufficient to bring about corrective 1 action but it sometimes becomes I necessary for the inspector to issue a city attorney citation. The city attorney issues an official complaint. and the courts may then , take action.
SUSPENSION POSSIBLE
i “If immediate action is neces-! sary on serious conditions,” added Sollins. “the inspector advises his supervisor and they suspend the owner's permit to operate.”
Sollins described the bureau’s food handler’s training program as a seven-week training course for food handlers in which the importance of sanitation is explained and sanitat'on ordinances and laws are analyzed.
‘Large restaurants send groups of their employees to this course and the smaller restaurant owners are beginning to appreciate its value." stated Sollins. “Eventually we hope to put the program on a compulsory basis but at present attendance is entirely voluntary.”
