It will be closed season on Tirebiter hunting in the future if the Los Angeles city humane department has anything to say about it.
Patrick J. Flynn, chief of the prevention of cruelty to animals division of the humane department, said yesterday that anyone found mistreating or molesting the big black and tan Trojan mascot would be subject to prosecution under the California penal code and the Los Angeles municipal code.
“This department will prosecute anyone guilty of mistreating any animal, including George Tirebiter,” Flynn stated. “Violators are subject to a S500 fine and six months in jail under the provisions of the penal code.” Meanwhile George was removed from the veterinarian’s where he was taken after his brief “dognaping” and shaving last week. He was reported to be fully recovered from his misadventure. The veterinarian reported that the dog had definitely been given an anesthetic, confirming earlier reports that he had been doped.
Plans have been made by Herb Hynson, Trojan Knight custodian of Tirebiter, to keep the mascot in a safe place at all times and to provide for his relative safety w’hile on campus.

SS Chief Convicted
NUERNBERG. Germany, Nov. 3—SS Chief Oswald Pohl, described as the most murderous slave driver in history, and three of his top helpers were found guilty of directing concentration camp crimes today and sentenced by the American war crimes tribunal to hang.
Eleven other major SS officers were sentenced from 10 years to life imprisonment. Three were acquitted.
Labor Party Defeats Revolt
The display of the 1932 Rose Bowl trophy in the bookstore window off the University avenue entrance to the Student Union will continue for another week. Bob dancer: Her- I Reis, sophomore class council trophy committee chairman, said yesterday.
“The display of this trophy, along with pertinent statistics about SC’s great 1931 football eleven, and a picture of the immortal Howard Jones, has attracted so much attention that the sophomore council has decided to leave the trophy on exhibit for another week,” Reis stated.
DISPLAY EACH VVEEK The sophomore class council plans to display a different SC trophy every week until June. Interested Trojans, the majority of them viewing the beautiful trophy for the first time, continue to crowTd around the window to see the exhibit.
“The sophomore class is doing a wonderful job in displaying these trophies,* ASSC President Paul Wildman commented. “I doubt if many Trojans even know- that wre have a trophy room containing awards won by Trojan teams throughout the years.”
BEAUTIFULLY ARRANGED Jea Morf. ASSC vice-president, said that she thought the exhibit was “swell.’’
“The display is beautifully arranged and interestingly presented,”
I fall semester in universities and colleges in the Los Angeles area will have received monthly subsistence payments by Nov. 15. L. C. Chapman, manager of the local veterans administration regional office, said yesterday.
’	j Records in the regional office, Mr. j
[ Chapman revealed, indicate that I one out of every six veterans who j entered school on or after Sept. 15 j has already changed address, and ! the heavy backlog has been even more complicated by failure to notify the VA.
ADDRESS CHANGES Students have been urged to submit new addresses at once, as in many cases the post office is unable to deliver checks without loss j of time or without having to return the payments to the treasury j department.
In an attempt to ensure prompt payment, a VA representative will visit the campus during the second week of each month to check on cases of delayed subsistence, Mr. Chapman added. Student veterans will be notified in advance in order to make appointments for personal interviews, he said.
PRIORITY FOR CLAIMS Regional office employees will give priority to all claims received until the veteran has received his check, with all necessary information to be recorded and sent to higher levels.
Because of late enrollment, a few veterans will not receive subsistence checks until after Nov. 20, as many failed to submit certificates promptly. Overpayments which must be deducted by the VA before subsistence can be paid and the necessity of transfering folders from other regional offices add to the delay, Mr. Chapman said.
Von HofejjTalk Will Interpret German Ifooks

“Contrary to Ameri tn belief, there is no decay in -loral values as expressed in postwar ~3erman literature, but general rea msideration of such values,” said Pr. Harold von Hofe, professor of :erman, w'ho will discuss “Roman* -ism Among German Ruins” tomorr w afternoon at 3:15 in the art and cture room of University library. 1 Dr. von Hofe will coi ne his lecture to German literature, romantic in tone and conter.j which has been published in Gerr^vny f#om 1945 to 1947.
EMPHASIS^
“Romanticism does nt^ stress the political and social prol^ems of the day, and it does not prtoiarily concern itself with the wel.gr-* of man.
Its emphasis is on emotgm and the spiritual experiences ar® insight of the individual.” said Dr _ von Hofe.
“I shall try to interpr «• the works of four German autho -',” he said.
“They are Albrecht Haushofer,
Gearhard Hasler, jo&chjgi Kreuder, and Stephan Hermlin.”

last week’s election.
Bill Stevens, debate representa-
senators approved of the election “while realizing that the procedure was not according to previously approved stipulations.”
Debate on the motion centered around the allegation that a vote in its favor would indicate acquiescence in an illegal election pro-
though most felt that a new election was not called for.
FLYNN DISSENTS
Final vote on the Stevens motion found only one dissenting vote, with Joe Flynn casting the negative decision and Jack Shaffer abstaining. Flynn stated that he did not believe any senator should go on record in favor of what he believed was an, illegal election, even though a new vote was out of order.
In an earlier move, members unanimously accepted the report of the election of senators-at-large. engineering officers, and junior class vice-president. The new senators are expected to be seated at the next regular senate meeting Nov. 12.

appraised Dr. Max T. Krone, dean of the Institute of Arts. “His music is less dissonant and more romantic than most contemporary American music.”
In his statement the Negro composer revealed that he had just completed his Fourth Symphony in
August. At present he is working on his newest opera, “Trouble Island.”
“I'd like to see people looking for worthwhile music, not merely something new,” Dr. Still remarked when asked about the future of music in America. He described sensationalism and the “pseudo-American music which imitates European styles.”
When asked the inevitable question as to which of his compositions he likes best, Dr. Still came back with a direct answrer:
“I think I like my opera ‘Trouble Island’ best of all. However, I haven’t heard it performed yet, so I can't be sure." he added cautiously.
He holds high respect Vr such American composers as "toward Hanson, Deems Taylor, F^bert McBride, and Frederick Macl ay. Saying he had little time tc§ listen to others’ music, the Negr» ^composer branded too much limning as “dangerous to originality."!
