Pioneering in the field of education, William Gould, director of the Trojan band, presented the first movie short of a college band, complete with narration, continuity, and musical scoring, at the University and College Band Directors conference in Chicago during the holidays.
Made during the hectic days which preceeded Gould’s departure for Chicago, with the aid of the cinema and radio departments and the Hancock foundation, the short deals with the pre-game and half time activities of the Trojan and visiting bands during the 1946 football season.
STANFORD TRIP SHOWTV
The short also depicts the trip of the band up to Stanford and the ensuing activities.
The short, which was shown in conjunction with Gould’s address to the conference, was the only subject of that kind presented there.
Gould was immediately flooded with requests from schools, 35 to be exact, requesting permission to show the film. Colorado, Arkansas, Indiana. Illinois, and Mississippi state clinics also asked to be allowed to exhibit the film to high school band directors from their respective j states.
EDUCATIONAL PROJECT
“I would like to give special thanks to Harris E. Moore and Herbert Farmer, who took charge of production assisted by students, Johnson Potter and Don Duke; John Wardell. narrator; Daniel Weigan and Carson Donaldson of the Hancock foundation who did the sound recording; film editors, Melvin Sloan, Helen Crosby, Ross Patton, and Gladys Trask; and the concert band who did the recording I one day from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m.,’' i Gould said.
i The short was produced as an ed-j ucational project to show prospec-| tive high school students what SC ! has in the way of a college band.

Former Track Star Dies of Heart Attack
George S. Schiller, SC track star 1 in the early 1920s, collapsed and j died at the Hall of Records on Christmas eve. Death presumably was from a heart seizure.
He was captain of the 1921 track | team at SC and member of the 1920 American Olympic team. His best I record for the 440-yard dash was j 48.8 seconds, which established the Trojan record for 11 years. He competed from 1919 to 1922 inclusive, graduating in 1923 from the College of Engineering.
A county employee since 1926, he was district civil engineer for the Altadena area in the county road department.
He leaves a widow and two chil-
Presldent Also Warns Against Tax-Cutting, Hasty Disarmament
WASHINGTON, Jan. 6 — (UP) — President Truman I today asked the Republican , 30th Congress to prohibit unjustified strikes by legislating compulsory arbitration, t o refrain from cutting taxes at ;the expense of national deot reduction, and to guard against hasty premature disarmament.
The • 20th president to face an opposition senate or house, or both, Mr. Truman told a joint session that if the country is to achieve “a state of well-being” among its own people as well as those of other nations, “the congress and the president during the next two years, must work together.”
Unless they do, he said in his personally-delivered, 6000-word state of the union message which put la-bor-management problems at the top of his legislative program, “we shall be risking the nation’s safety and destroying our opportunities for progress.”
OPPOSITION But despite this plea for unity, the president bumped immediately into firm Republican opposition to his all-embracing domestic and foreign program, which he said was designed to bring about “collective security for all mankind.”
A quick survey among prominent GOF senate and house members, made while the chief executive’s address was being broadcast to the country—and for the first time by television—from the crowded, Kleig-lighted house chamber, showed that many viewed the program as too general and merely a re-hash of earlier White House pronouncements.
TAFT SPEAKS
One Republican leader, chairman Robert A. Taft of the senate labor committee, said the president's views on industrial peace were in
Supreme Court Upholds OPA Rent Ceilings
WASHINGTON, Jan. 6— (U.E) — Pha legal basis for OPA’s rent ceilings was upheld by the Supreme Court today in a test action brought by owners of four New York city apartment houses who contended they were not getting enough rent for their premises.
The court refused to review the findings of an emergency court which had rejected the landlords’ request for higher rents. The landlords sought an interpretation of the price control act that would compel OPA to set rent ceilings at a level which would guarantee them “a fair return on investment”.
MUSICIAN’S TAXES The court did agree, however, to look into the knotty question of who pays a musician’s social security taxes. That point was raised by the owners of the Crystal ballroom at Dubuque, Ia., and the Greer ballroom at Fort Dodge. Ia„ who filed suit against the government to recover social security taxes they paid for musicians in 11 dance bands which played on their premises in 1940, 1941 and 1942.
The ballroom operators claimed the musicians’ old age and unemployment taxes were a legitimate worry of the band leader. That view was upheld by the U. S. District court for southern Iowa but denied by the eighth circuit court of appeals.
EMPLOYER’S CONTRACTS
The Supreme court ruling will determine in part the validity of contracts by James C. Petrillo’s American federation of musicians (AFL). Ballroom and nightclub operators who engage musicians are required line with those taken by GOP to sign standard contracts stating
Psychology Department Affiliated With SC 15 Years
Dr. Neil D. Warren, professor of psychology, has been appointed dean of men, it was announced recently by Chancellor Rufus B. von KleinSmid. Dr. Warren will replace Dr. Carl H. Hancey who was made Dean of the University College evening division.
Dr. Warren has been affiliated
with the university since his graduation in 1931. He has served as Lead of the psychology department since 1938, a position he wiH continue to hold. During his four years of military service in World War H, he was director of the psychological research unit of the Santa Ana Army Air base with the rank of major. He also served in the Mediterranean and European theaters as commanding officer of the research division of the AAF. In 1945 he was made director of the Veterans Guidance Center, affiliated with the university.

sponsors of the revised Case antistrike bill once vetoed by Mr. Truman. Taft indicated that Republicans would go ahead with their own program.
Declaring that “the spirit of the American people can set the course of world history,’’ Mr. Truman surrounded his labor-management. tax and disarmament views with these other major points.
1.—Universal military training is necessary to develop a trained citizen reserve. Recommendations on the possible need for continuing selective service will be made before the present law expires March 31.
2.—Creation of a single department of national defense offers “one certain way by which we can cut costs and at the same time enhance our national security.”

In other decisions today, the court:
1—Upheld the authority of the federal reserve board to remove national bank directors who also are engaged in the underwriting business.
2—Ruled that the interstate commerce commission may not alter the certificate of a common carrier once it has been issued, unless it is proved that certificate was obtained by fraud.
3—Ruled that royalties need not be paid for use of patents if the patent licensing agreements violate the anti-trust laws.
4—Ruled that a state may tax a company’s business even though its products are sold outside the state. That decision upheld Ohio authorities against the International Harvester company, which contested the state’s collection of taxes from

Radioactive Isotopes Received on Campus
Containing radioactive isotopes from the atomic radium pile at the Manhattan Engineering district in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, a pair of two-ounce bottles encased in 40 pounds of lead were recently received at SC for scientific research projects, according to the university news bureau.
More intensely radioactive than
radium, the atoms of this element, iodine 131, are constantly breaking up with the emitting of high speed electrons. More than 90 per cent of the substance has destroyed itself in the few weeks since the shipment was received. When exhausted, it will be replaced by a new supply.

Collective Safety Important-T ruman
WASHINGTON, Jan. 6— (U.E>— President Truman told congress today that the United States will not disarm until the United Nations’ system of collective security has been established.
“We live in a world in which strength on the part of the peace-loving nations is still the greatest deterrent to aggression,” he said in the foreign-policy section of his message on the state of the union.
“This is an age when an unfor-seen attack could come with unprecedented sped. We must be strong enough to defeat, and thus to forestall any such attack.”
US WILL TAKE LEAD
The president said this country would be willing to take the lead in “collective disarmament” as soon as the United Nations organization is equipped to maintain the peace.
He did not go into detail on American atomic policy, but he linked it to military policy and indicated strongly that the same theses of no disarmament without collective security holds good for this country's atomic secrets and bomb stockpiles.
SEEK NO MONOPOPLY
“The United States has taken the lead in the endeavor to put atomic energy under effective international control. We seek no monopoly for ourselves or for any group of nations. We ask only that there be safeguards sufficient to insure that no nation will be able to use this power for military purposes. So long as all governments are not agreed on means of international control of atomic energy, the shadow of fear will obscure the bright prospects for the peaceful use of this enormous power.”
MAY RESUME DRAFT
The president warned that American military forces are barely sufficient to meet the obligations involved in the nation’s foreign policy and he hint ed that the army may ask for a resumption of the draft if the current drive for volunteers falls short.
On American dealings with Russia. Mr. Truman said our policy toward that country would be guided by “the same principles which determine our policies toward all nations.”
UPHOLDS JUSTICE
“We seek only to uphold the principles of international justice which have been embodied in the charter of the United Nations,” he added.
He said the differences which ! have arisen between this country j and Russia “should not be allowed to obscure the fact that the t? ;ic interests of both nations lie in the early making of a peace under i which the peoples of all countries may return, as free men and women, to the essential tasks of production and reconstruction.
Gen. Marshall Recalled by Pres. Truman
WASHINGTON. Jan. 6 — (TJ?) — President Truman tonight recalled Gen. George C. Marshall from China to report “in person” on the critical situation there.
The former army chief of staff, who has been the president’s personal peace emissary in China for a year, is expected to leave Nanking by plane tomorrow.
“The president has directed Gen. Marshall to return to Washington to report in person on the situation in China,” was all the White House announcement said.
White House press secretary Charles G. Ross said he was not prepared to comment when asked if Marshall would return to his post. This probably will depend upon the conferences he holds here with Mr. Truman and Secretary of S t a t • James F. Byrnes, and Marshall's own evaluation of the situation — whether he thinks his return would do any good.
American officials have nothing but praise for the work Marshall has done in China although his main objective—establishing peace between the communists and nationalists—has not been achieved. CHINA FAILS
These officials insist that it is China which has failed rather than Marshall. The general, they say, has done everything humanly possible to help China’s warring political factions reconcile their differences.
Marshall’s recall set in motion plans to review the entire far eastern situation, especially United States relations with China and the Soviet Union in that area.
A few hours before the White House announcement the state department announced dispatch of firm notes to Soviet Russia and China about the failure to reopen Dairen, Manchuria, as a free port and to eliminate Soviet military control.
CHINA POLICY
The way for Marshall’s recall was prepared by President Truman less than a month ago when he issued a long statement of US policy in China. In it he reviewed Ameican efforts — especially those of Marshall —to help the Chinese solve their political, military and economic problems.
The statement was directly critical of both the nationalist government and the communists. It pointed out that the communists broke off negotiations with the Central Chinese government, and that the Central Government had not moved sufficiently toward a democratic government to get any of the $500.-000.000 earmarked for her by the US export-import bank.
