UCLA to Gasp, Tommy Grasps Sword at Last
Tommy Trojan will stop resembling a pugilist preparing to bring up an uppercut, and return today to the sword-bearing pose that was intended when the statue was unveiled in 1930.
This will be done by Theta Chi fraternity, who have elected to provide the Trojan shrine with wooden swords during Homecoming week, preceding the UCLA game Nov. 23. A permanent metal sword will be in the right hand of Tommy in the near future to accent the traditional spirit of the campus in athletic competition.
“Since no one else has taken the initiative to arm Tommy Trojan,” stated Reid Hughes, spokesman for the group, “We members of Theta Chi feel that we would like to do It.”
The various-colored swords are fringed in a red-like tinge, rumored to be Bruin blood. The first wooden weapon was presented to Tommy last Wednesday, but was removed so that the statue could be cleaned. Starting today and continuing through the end of the UCLA game. Tommy Trojan will not be weapon-less according to Hughes.

Taft Foresees Heavy Budget Slash, Income Tax Cut of One-fifth
NEW YORK, Nov. 7—(UP) —Republicans plunged into the task of organizing Congress tonight. They promised to make good their pre-election pledge to cut federal spending and reduce taxes.
Two Republicans who will have a lot to say about shaping domestic legislative policies during the remaining two years of the Truman administration foresaw the posibility of a balanced budget.
TAFT SENATE LEADER
Sen. Robert A. Taft, of Ohio, who probably will be elected Republican senate leader when the 80th Congress convenes Jan. 3, predicted in Chicago that his party would be able to cut government expenses $13,000,000,000 next year and reduce taxes 20 per cent.
President Truman, whose friends termed “fantastic” suggestions tnat he resign in the face of both houses becoming Republican, still kept silent about the election.
White House sources said he had no idea of forming a coalition government by putting Republicans into top executive jobs. Sen. .J. William Fulbright, Arkansas Democrat, said Mr. Truman ought to quit for the country’s welfare and puc Republican Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg, of Michigan, in line to succeed him.
MARTIN FOR RAYBURN
As the new congress shaped up, with Republicans holding 246 House seats out of 435 and 51 Senate posts out of 96. Taft, Knutson and Rep. Joseph W. Martin Jr., of Massachusetts. who is slated to become House speaker to succeed Sam Rayburn of Texas, announced preliminary plans for a general revamping of Mr. Truman’s domestic policies. A bi-partisan attitude is expected to be maintained toward foreign policy.
The Republicans will begin charting their congressional program next Thursday in Washington when Taft and Martin meet with their respective legislative steering committees.
ATTACK CONTROLS
It appeared certain that the top plank in their plans would involve elimination or reduction of many federal controls on industrial life. One of their chief campaign issues was an attack on government controls, which they blamed for tna recent meat shortage and for the scarcity of many foods and clothing.
Meanwhile, demands for a special session of congress came from Sen. Dennis Chavez, who appeared to have survived a close New Mexico re-election fight against former Secretary of War Patrick J. Hurley,

LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y., Nov. 7—
(UP)—Soviet White Russia today called on the United Nations to break commercial as well as diplomatic relations with the Franco government and begin a communications blockade which would virtually isolate Spain from all contact | with the rest of the world.
The proposal was submitted by the White Russian delegation as an amendment to a Polish resolution for an undiplomatic break.
QUOTE RESOLUTION The amended resolution said:
“The general assembly recommends that each member of the United Nations organization terminate diplomatic and commercial re- ! lations. such action to include the suspens on of communications by j rail, sea, air., post and telegraph, with Franco Spain.’’
The White-Russian proposal al- | most certainly had the blessing of Soviet Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov. and was taken as an indication that Russia would push for con- j

the White Russian delegation, sent the amendment to UN Secretary General Trygve Lie with a request that it be passed to the political and security committee, which is charged with considering the Spanish question and reporting to the general assembly.
The announcement of the White Russian action came after the United States had outlined its trusteeship program and made it plain it intends to keep the former Japanese islands in the Pacific, regardless of what action UN takes.

Couples will resume their prewar status tomorrow at the SC-Cal game in the Coliseum when they ar* seated in three sections surrounding the card section.
Faculty members will sit in the lower bank of seats between tunnels 19 and 20 and will enter tunnel 20. according to a revised seating plan, announced yesterday by Wayne Crawford, Trojan Knight in charge of the game.
NO COUPLES IN SECTION No couples wiH be admitted to the card section. Crawford said, but will occupy choice seats above the band, above the card section, and behind the faculty. All couples will enter the Coliseum by stairway and tunnel 19.
Unescorted women with pompons and white blouses will enter by stairway 21. Stag men with rooters’ caps and white shirts will enter the game by stairway 20.
WHITE SHIRTS STAY “It’s still the same big rooting section, so white shirts and blouses will be in order for everyone, regardless of seating,'’ Crawford said. “This system will facilitate better handling of the entire section, and we hope that every Trojan will cooperate to help make this a memorable game.”
Crawford, who pointed out that couples were not included in the card section before the war, urged all students to remain in the rooting section until the alma mater is sung.
