House Managers Organize Council
Two heads are belter than one. As far as SC fraternity house managers are concerned, several heads are even better than two.
Interfratemity cooperation being the motive, house managers of Trojan fraternities have recently organized the Interfraternity House Managers association. Dr. Albert Zech. interfratemity coordinator, revealed yesterday.
TOWNSEND PRESIDENT Ralph Townsend. Sig Ep, was elected president of the new council. Jack Gardetto, Dolta Sig, is secretary-treasurer.
“This organization is the answer to a long felt need at Troy.” Dr. Zech commented. He explained that the purpose of the group will be to (J^nerally improve the fraternity living setup through the exchange of ideas among the house managers of the different fraternities. PROBLEMS DISCUSSED Monthly meetings will be held where the different problems of the house managers will be discussed and an attempt will be made to solve them through group cooperation. Periodical inspections will also be made by the managers at various houses. “Through these inspections. it is hoped that improvement of each house will naiurally result.” Dr. Zech said.
The exchange of ideas will not be confined to SC fraternities, however. Members of a similar organization at UCLA will be invited to the meetings. In addition repre-(Continued on Page Four)

Station KUSC Opening Date Set Next Week
Reaching 50,000 homes with better programming, KUSC studeni-operated, experimental frequency modulation station will go on the air Oct. 24 from Hancock hall.
Part of the Allan Hancock Foundation program, KUSC will be the first major collegiate frequency modulation station to begin broadcasting on a regular program schedule. The station will utilize the 91 7 area on the FM band, which is channel 219.
ACADEMIC PROGRAM KUSC will operate in conjunction with the SC academic program for radio majors and will draw part of its personnel from the 384 students enrolled in radio classes.
Programming, as set up at present, calls for scheduled shows built on every basic format in radio— news, music, public service, drama, discussion, and audience participation. Six hundred students thus far, have applied for auditions for participation in one or more of these formats, and. with auditions well under way, the station schedule will be undertaken by a staff of professional people and student from the radio field.
Station operation will be broken down into the customary department—continuity, production news, music, programming, . announcer's staff, sound effects, engineering, public relations, and talent. The station will be operated on a professional basis.
MODERN TECHNIQUES Set up as one of the regular SC information activities, KUSC will pursue a program of cultural and educational material presented with the most modern techniques from commercial radio. An essential part of the station opera Lion will be th“ Radio Workshop experimentation in j improvement of these techniques j and the attempt to discover and | perfect others to replace them hs | they lose their utility in the com- j ing years.

Miss Mary Mullin, symphony representative, will be present in the booth to answer questions concerning the symphony, concert schedules, and seating arrangements for the remainder of this week and part of next week.
Motto Stimulates Weary Workers
“Wampusum Nauseatum” reads a huge cardinal and gold sign which hangs directly over the editor’s gilt throne in 403 Student Union.
Freely translated, this stirring motto means “Come rain, or snow, or labor trouble, the Wampus must hit the street next Monday morning.”
(According to an old tradition, the SC funny magazine is never merely issued, released, or put on sale. It must always “hit the street.”
The October issue is just bulging with stuff. There’s something or other on practically every page.
In addition to thc cover girl VIP and an irrepressible story by the languorrusly-named Easy Sloman, there is a deeply significant parable dealing with a Dier, a Naerda. ?nd a Hurnu. who live in the SC forest and have voluble differences of opinion on how things should not be run.

But it’ll spoil all the fun if we reveal any more. Just remember to match grandma double - or nothing for a quarter next Monday morning and come prepared to have your very own copy of the Wampus.

English Poet Likes Humor
by Leo Moulton
“The most important quality of a religious novel is for it to be funny,” Christopher Isherwood said. “It should get away from the sen* timental gloom that one usually finds in stories of religion. When I read such a story I usually come to a moment of embarrassment when I feel that I am intruding on something that should be left sacred and unread.”
Speaking on the problems of the religious novel yesterday at the first of the LAS Wednesday lectures, Isherwood. English poet, and novelist stated that when creating a character in a story all novelists fight against the universal pattern of the saint or hero.
“They must start with the fact that everyone is exactly like everyone else basically and must then make each characterization intelligible,” he said. “Every writer seeks to create a flexible, and unpredictable hero; one in whom they can bring out all sorts of unusual and original ideas.”
Isherwood. who has written several novels including, “Prater Violet,’' “The Last of Mr. Norris,” “Goodbye to Eerlin.” and ‘ Memor-(Continued on Page Four)
amendment during the first meeting soon proved to be only the calm before the storm as debate grew heated following the banging of Mitchell's gavel to open the second meeting. Sparked by a dramatic support of the amendment by Dobkin, and opposed chiefly by Carl Gebhart, LAS president, charges and counter-charges of selfish interests again flew about the senate chambers as they have in th£ two preceding meetings.
“No group on the campus, not (Continued on Page Four)
The curtain went up on both the third and fourth acts of the continuing ASSC senate drama of strife and disruption last night, and before the lights went down in the senate chambers, representatives of Trovets found their request for a voting seat on the senate going down to defeat on a roll-call vote, 10-6.
Immediately after the motion was laid in the grave, Anita Norcop,
AWS president, offered a consolation prize, moving that Trovets be given a nonvoting seat. Jesse Unruh,
Trovet president, gaining attention oi the chair with difficulty, grimly declared: *
“You are relegating Trovets to the position of an ordinary service group. I term the motion for nonvoting seat as a direct insult to our organization. Although I cannot yet speak for the group as a whole, I personally reruse to accept.”
In a sudden and dramatic move.
Milt Dobkin, junior class president, proposed that the senate adjourn at 8:15 and reconvene at 8:20 in order to overcome the constitutional pro-v’sion that an amendment must be debated at the meeting immediately following the one at which it is introduced and voted upon at any succeeding meeting. Dobkin thus, in efect, forced the senate to hold two regular meetings in one evening.
TECK SUPPORTS
Jim Mitchell, ASSC president, limited debate in the first meeting to two speeches from each senate member but only Bob Peck, senior class president, took the floor in support of the proposed amendment before Dobkin dropped his dyna-mite-laden proposal among the senators.

Trophies Sought For War Exhibit
Plans are underway at the Los Angeles county museum for an exhibition of World war II trophies this winter.
Arthur Woodward, curator of history and anthropology, stated that there had been a generous contribution of material, but many items are still needed to make the exhibition complete.
If you are a veteran and have practiced the art of scrounging, either in Europe or the Pacific, the museum would appreciate the donation of any trophies you may have come upon in your travels.
