Mr. Andrews who is pastor of the Trinity Lutheran church, San Pedro. FAITH NEEDED “Luther was introduced to the idea that the justice of God is not impunity, but forgiving,” said the pastor. “God’s love is a gift freely bestowed to be apprehended by faith. The sinner must accept God’s forgiving pardon through faith.’’ Born in 1483. Luther lived 63 years.

First reports mentioned high Pacific trade winds, but late yesterday afternoon when three camera-shy Trojans clad in cuffed sarongs emerged from the shaky shack shouting, --—♦“Get your tickets now for the*- Phi Beta Kappa . . . faculty members will meet Thursday in 203 Bndge hall at 3:15 p.m. for the purpose of electing new dustrious, and pious. His religious members from the group of A.B. publications had a great appeal to j degree candidates, the common man because he was a i man of the earth from peasant; stock, stated the minister. WRITES BELIEFS “Having studied St. Paul’s letters to the Romans and Galatians, Luther wrote his doctrine of the standing or falling church by placing the supremacy of the scripture over the supremacy of the papacy,” he continued. It has been 400 years since the protestant ref6rmer's death, yet today approximately 70.000.000 men. women, and children bear his name, the pastor estimated. That others might find peace in the embrace of divine love, he translated the Bible and began the religion of protestan-tism. El Rod Out Soon, Editor Promises This year’s El Rodeo is entering the homestretch, according to Editor Morey Thomas. "As things look now, the yearbook should be ready for campus distribution on May 28, the Friday before finals,” said the editor. A picture record will be set by the 1948 El Rodeo. “A new high of 4569 pictures will appear.” said Thomas.

Wegener Sees Atom Utopia as Impossible Show Ticket Sale From Grass Shack Unions Combat Jim Crowism, Locke Reports Cooperation between Negroes and whites in the South is being ad vanced most successfully by labor unions and not by intellectual and religious leaders. These are facts and not speculation, Dr. Harvey J. Locke, professor of sociology, noted yesterday. The CIO and the United Mine Workers, despite strong opposition, have organized workers—both Negro and white—into nonsegragated unions, presenting a united front in voicing demands. WORKERS RECEPTIVE Dr. Locke, who will discuss “Racial Tensions in America” tomorrow at 3:15 in the art and lecture room of the University library, pointed out that wage-earners are more receptive to Negro-white cooperation when they realize that unity means a greater chance of pay boosts. In the matter of civil rights, he made reference to studies made by research workers, declaring that Negroes in the South are gradually achieving the vote and equal opportunities in schools. TRUMAN FAVORED According to a Gallop poll, President Harry Truman’s civil rights program was favored by one out ol nine white southerners. “It is safe to say,” commented Dr. Locke, “that no such large percentage would have favored such proposals two decades ago.” He pointed out that friction has increased in northern and western states with increases -in colored population in these areas. In the past, the expansion of “black belts” in nothem cities has brougat about riots and strikes. / ..i. Board to Query Unity Hopefuls Prospective candidates for any and all student body offices are slated for interviews at a special session of the Unity party credential board today, 1 to 3 p.m., in 318 Student Union, it was announced Friday by Gabby Garrett, chairman of the board. Candidates unable to attend the session at this time are required to contact any members of the credential board to make other arrangements. All board members are required to attend this meeting. Members include Bob Padgett, Dale Drunun, Herb Riley, Pat Corrigan, Jesse Unruh, Joe Flynn, John Hook, Hank Kavanagh, Jim McAree. Bob Barrett, Jack Shaffer. Lecturer to Stress Need For International Control An atomic Utopia where man’s problems have been solved and education purports leisure—not work—is seen by Frank C. Wegener, assistant professor of education, as an unattainable goal that should be of aid to man in his attack on ♦present-day atomic problems. Professor Wegener, who speaks on “Educational Implications of Atomia Energy' at this afternoon’s phil* osophy forum, 4:15 in Bowne nail, said yesterday that although such a society is impossible, it is valuable to contrast education in a Utopian community with realistic methods. SOCIETY OF LEISURE “In this atomic Utopia, where cultural lag has been eliminated and man has the ‘know how’ for adequate control of atomic energy, entire communities would have the primary purpose of promoting culture to preserve the ideal society of leisure,” he explained. “Our present education is directed toward problem solving," he continued. “We must realize that there can be no education for leisure as long as problems threaten our survival, but education to solve social problems in our atomic era complements the Utopian methods.” Professor Wegener pointed out that in a short range program to solve problems of atomic power “our total environment must have educational aims just as in the Utopian society.” Education is important in farming the intelligent public opinion that democratic leaders must have to realise successful international control of atomic energy, he said. DYNAMIC EDUCATION NEEDED The speaker stressed that there is need for a “dynamic” education which, in combination with other influences on public opinion—the press, radio, and motion pictures— could mold an enlightened populace. A sensible educational approach is important. Cooperation cannot be achieved if the public has a psychological fear of atomic energy." he added. Every teacher, from elementary school to college, must be cognizant of1 atomic facts, he said. When this point is reached, every “separate subject area of curriculums could be related dynamically to the solution of common problems. AGENCIES MUST COOPERATE Professor Wegener remarked that verbalized mastery of data with no thought behind it will not solve atomic problems. Formal education alone cannot solve the problems of atomic energy, but the school cooperating with other agencies in the community can create favorable public opinion. “Education must become the No. 1 business of our communities. People educated in democracy during a crisis can do more to sell democracy than words alone,” he concluded. WALT BROWN . . . personalized books Y Plea Brings 500 Textbooks More than 500 textbooks were collected yesterday, according to Chairman Dave Evans, as the YMCA drive to establish a Trojan memorial library in the Philippines got off to a flying start. Main book receiving depots will be located at the top of the stairs in Doheny and in the entrance to the Student Union, opposite the trophy case. The drive is to extend through Apr. 16. All books collected are destined for the University of the Philippines, Manila. Nonsectarian and state-owned, the university was destroyed by American and Philippine liberation forces in 1945. Campus representatives sp onsoring the drive feel that restoration of their library would be a fitting tribute to Trojans who died in the liberation campaign. USE ENGLISH BOOKS “English is the official language of the Philippines, and all classes, from the first grade through the college level, are conducted in English. Therefore, books collected here don’t have to be translated,” Evans said. Books of any type fere acceptable. Additional collection centers ’are to be located in the entrances to Bridge hail, Mudd hall. Old College, and the Law building. All fraternities, sororities, and residence halls on campus are cooperating with the YMCA by placing (Continued on Page 4) Sigma Chi Wins Pledge Relays ★ ★ ★ ★ Fastest Team Loses A Sigma Chi four-man relay team won the seventh running of the Phi Sigma Kappa pledge relays, yesterday. Actually, the team from Phi Kappa Psi was clocked for the fastest time, but after a heated discussion concerning Sigma Alpha Epsilon’s use of a beer bottle for a baton, and Phi Psi’s use of a man who is out for track, judges proclaimed the Sigma Chis winner. Members of the winning team are Jim Gillim, Bill McGinley, Jerry Allen, and Don Allen. Kappa Alpha placed in the meet and Sigma Nu and Phi Kappa Sigma tied for the show position. Over 2000 spectators were on hand for the race. An added attraction was provided by the Los Angeles Fire department. At 4 p. m., fire trucks raced up 29th street from Figueroa street barely nosing out fire equipment which came speeding down from Hoover. They met at the Alpha Delta Pi sorority, where they were informed no fire, other than that cooking the ADPi dinner was in progress. The fire trucks left the 28th street track only after considerable trouble encountered turning the long trucks around and backing up the crowded street. The SAE track team was attired in prisoners costumes, complete with hat and numbers. The Phi Psi team sported burlap track suits. A crew from KTRO broadcast the event to Trojans unable to attend the race. Music was played between events, and a public address system was employed to describe progress of the race. Nepa Project Wants Crads Murray Lesser, representative ot the Nepa project. Oak Ridge, Tenn., will confer tomorrow with spring and summer graduates interested in nuclear propulsion for aircraft, it was announced yesterday by Mrs. Florence Watt, director of the university employment bureau. Positions are open for both experimental and theoretical physicists in the field of nuclear physics, mathematicians in the field of applied mathematics, and a number of openings are available in basic physics to deal with properties of materials. The Nepa project was organized by the United States air force for the purpose of exploring the applicability of nuclear energy to the propulsion of aircraft and to develop a nuclear power plant suitable for aircraft propulsion. Many major aeronautical and electrical organizations concerned with research and production are associated for the fulfillment of these objectives. Interested students may make appointments at the employment office, 320 Student Union, t
