AMS to Tackle Troy s Growing Parking Pains
While the city council last week unanimously adopted a resolution ordering the city planning commission to expedite its study of three alternate plans for the solution of the parking problem at the coliseum and this area. SC's own parking headaches loomed as big as ever for the current term.
Beginning in the winter semester cf 1945 and the advent of an enrollment almost three times the size of prewar years, parking facilities in the vicinity have proven inadequate for student needs. Until some concrete steps are taken by the city in the direction of constructing the proposed parking lots, the only other hope of abating the situation is for Trojans to cooperate with the Associated Men Students in their program to ease the problem.
COOPERATION* ASKED
AMS president Terry Ragan urges that students driving to school should arrive early and park on the street a few blocks away rather than cruise around in hopes of finding a space a block or two (Story on Page Four)
Stepping into Troy’s top editorial post as editor of the Daily Trojan is Ed Prizer, former assistant editor, who introduces two staff innovations with today’s issue.
Prizer’s staff includes Bob Smith in the newly created managing editor’s position; Charles Neiswender and Dick Eshleman, associate editors; Bob Wood, feature editor; Hal Hodges, sports editor; and Shirley Barden, women's editor.
An editorial board, consisting of John Astengo. Phyllis Reinbrecht, Bob Fogarty, and Manuel Mireles, constitutes the second organization change.
A native of Southern Pines, N. C., Prizer attended the University of North Carolina, where he joined the marine reserve and worked on the Daily Tarheel. The new D.T. editor joined the RCAF in 1941 and saw four years of service. He was a flight lieutenant in the European theater.

On the Student Union fourth floor, typewriters are warming up to serve the campus its newspaper diet for this semester. Four pages daily in quantity, the diet will be varied and full of flavor if Daily Trojan editorial chiefs carry out plans which have been brewing during vacation.
To start off we feel It appropriate to present a menu of what is to comc. Our prime objective is to produce one of the best college papers in the country. In the paragraphs that follow is an outline of how we shall accomplish this objective.
* * * *
We shall strive for technical excellence in news-writing and typography since news loses value when ladled out in indigestible lumps.
A large staff of reporters will cover the campus to insure that all information of interest or importance appears promptly in the paper.
As the only widespread means of intercommunication between students, the Daily Trojan will accept its responsibility as a daily bulletin board, and impartial consideration will be accorded those groups wishing to reach the student body.

■New Trojans
At the beginning of this second semester, it is a pleasure to express this word of welcome. Today offers the opportunity of a new beginning and beginnings are always challenging. Past mistakes should be forgotten in a determination not to repeat them; former ideals should be recalled and good resolutions renewed. It Is a genuine privilege these days to enjoy the facilities of higher education when these are denied to so many who long for them as genuinely as we do.
Let me urge you to make the most of what is provided here. Give the best of yourself in order that you may receive the best in return. And may this semester be rich in experiences of thc highest worth.
R. B. von KleinSmid, Chancellor.
You are beginning your careers as students of the University of Southern California. In this, the first stage, there Is bound to be some confusion, a little doubt, and a great deal of anxiety. Regardless of this, however, you are the most fortunate group within the whole organization. Everything is before you. and there is no limit to the many, many ways that you may profit from your ’college experience. Anticipate and prevent the day that you might utter that timeworn phrase, “if I only had it to do all over again.” Make these next four years all that they can be—the richest and most valuable period or your life.
James H. Mitchell Jr. President, Associated Students of Southern California.

SC Chapter Becomes Honorary Fraternity

Aiming to form a bridge between the students and the administration and between the students and civic leaders. Blue Key has changed from a service •’organization to a national honorary fraternity with membership open to students showing leadership in one major activity.

Trojans Approve Early Enrollment
With 14.000 Trojans already registered for the spring semester, enrollment is expected to reach 15.000 by the end of the registration period, Howard W. Patmore, registrar, stated Friday.
15.053 Trojans were enrolled last semester, and the present number is expected to be about the same.
With classes filled to capacity, only about 2500 new students could be admitted to fill the places left by graduating seniors and others who dropped out.
ALL GIVE CREDIT Nearly everyone gave credit for the smooth operation of registering tfiis large number, to the new experiment in early registration begun ‘this semester, whereby most students were able to complete their enrollment before finals began.
Enthusiastic about the new registration procedure was Albert S. Raubenheimer, educational vice-president.
“It is preferable by far to have registration early,” he said. “The new plan has the unqualified approval of all concerned. It has functioned far better than we expected.
SIMILAR SYSTEM
“Since it has operated so well, we may plan a similar system for the summer and fall terms,” he said.
There was some trouble during the last three days with limited class cards. Patmore said, but this coula have been improved if there had been more people to help give them out.
One long stop in the registration lineup was eliminated this semester by not requiring students to have the health office stamp the first page of book one. These cards were collected with the rest during early registration and given to the health office.
RECORDS CHECKED There the records were checked,
and those who do not have their health records on file will be notified later.
University College is breaking previous records for the number of enrollments, with 6500 already and possibly 1000 more expected. This may make about 5000 night school students in addition to the 15.000 expected in day school.
Patmore Revises Card Procedure
Seeking to avoid the confusion resulting from many students changing their programs the first few days of school, Howard W. Patmore, registrar, has announced a new and simplified method of changing classes to be followed by all students.
If a change In program Involves adding a restricted elas* card, the student should go to 207 Physical Education building to see if there is room in the desired class. If not. the proposed change cannot be made.
A printed list of limited section* which are still open will be given each student when he receives his change of program cards.
Former SC students who are registering late are requested to report to the Office of' the Registrar to obtain their registration permits, stated Howard W. Patmore, registrar.
After receiving their permits, they should then go to 207 Physical Education building and obtain registration materials.
New students will have received their registration permits by mail, and should report directly to 207 Physical Education building to obtain their materials and section cards.
Heads of departments will be authorized this semester to change students, at their request, from one section to another section of the same course meeting at the same time, or at a different time, without going through the change of program procedure.
This does not include change* involving adding or dropping courses, for which the instructions given below must be followed.

Steering clear of the governor's “health bill,” we asked what provisions were being made in the state universities and colleges for the higher enrollments to come. Answered the governor, “the legislature has provided for 40.000 students in the state universities and for 18.000 students in the state col-Doctor of Laws (L.L.D.) degree leges.” We asked what provisions upon the governor " in recognition were being made for the selection of distinguished service to the and hiring of further instructors, commonwealth of California." | (Continued on Page Four) TROJAN AT LAST In a later conversation with the
by Bob Hager
In Sacramento's Senator hotel last week, a visiting editor from the Daily Trojan was introduced around to a group of conversing state senators, assemblymen, attorneys, and lawyer-advocates after which a loyal alumnus and Trojan club member. Ray C. Eberhard. made the remark that Gov. Earl Warren was at last a Trojan.
Eberhard went on to explain that Chancellor von KleinSmid, on Oct. 14. 1945. at the winter Commencement exercises, had bestowed the
governor, Eberhard said that the governor remarked “it has taken a long time but now they've gone and j made a Trojan out of me.”
Before the morning was out, an ?xclusive interview had been arranged for with the governor and within an hour wre were shaking hands with youthful, athletic-looking Gov. Warren.
LEADING QUESTION
The governor opened the interview with a leading question about
Journalists Must Check Programs
Al! journalism majors are asked to call immediately at 423 Student Cnion to check their programs and leave their addresses. This must be done at once if students wis-i Jo continue with their journalism major.
Designed to bridge the often painful and difficult gap between surgical or medical treatment and the return to normal life, the Physical
Therapy clinic organized this sem-j ester on a full time basis, offers disabled students a full course of rehabilitation by student therapist# under the direction of qualified instructors.
The clinic is open to all person*, especially S C students, who have suffered some disability and have been prescribed a course of physical treatment by a medical doctor. Miss Charlotte Anderson, head of the department, said.
“Physical therapy is the natural adjunct to medicine,” she said. “Sometimes our problem is to teach a patient to regain the use of an injured part as, for instance, following a fracture. Sometimes it is to teach a patient to work around an injury that cannot be cured, as in the case of an amputee.’’
By use of physical means such as with water, heat, light, exercises, massage, electricity, etc., patients are taught by the clinic to regain lost use of limb and body muscles. Other patients are taught to use artificial limbs and work out disabilities connected with use of unfamiliar muscles.
The clinic has three main problems. Mis Anderson said:
1.	Limited motion. Sometimes, after a fracture the injured will not immediately be capable of full use.
A leg may remain stiff after the cast is removed and the muscles ni'ist be re-educated.
2.	Lack of power. After removal from a cast, muscles are often weak
