UN Assembly Slaps Council
ASSEMBLY HALL, Flushing, N.
Y., Nov. 19. (U.R) — The United Nations General assembly took a slap at the security council today by urging that it reconsider the rejected membership applications of Ireland,
Portugal, Outer Mongolia, Albania and Transjordan.
The assembly also passed, over the objections of the United States,
Russia and France, a resolution designed to strip from the security council some of its powerful hold over future membership applications.
Delegates from Afghanistan, Iceland and Sweden sat in the assembly for the first time today. Those three hations were approved by the security council last August at the Fame time it turned down the other five applications.
The assembly started a long day by electing Belgium, Colombia and Syria to the security council and naming the United States, Venezuela, New Zealand and Lebanon to the economic and social council.
Then it bogged down on naming two more members of the latter body.
All are to replace present members of the two bodies Jan. 1.

King Bemoans Lack of Queens As Judges Await Last Entries
“There’s more beauty at SC than you can shake a stick at,” said Okey King, chairman of the Homecoming Queen contest. “The place is overrun with pulchritude. That’s why I can’t understand why so few entrants have appeared so far.”
From among the entrants submitted, a committee of alleged “gentlemen judges” will select the 1946 edition of “Helen of Troy” and her four attendants tomorrow at noon in Bovard.
Judges will be restrained by straitjackets and each will be provided with a bib to absorb any excess moisture which might result when the glamorous contestants slither enticingly across the auditorium stage clad in svelte black date dresses.
Helen herself will be chosen from either the senior or the junior class, while one attendant will be chosen from each class.
King stressed the fact that noon today is t h e deadline for the names of entrants to be turned in to the ASSC office, 230 Student Union.
Applications must be signed by the entrant, and the girl’s class and affiliations should also be included.

Lewis Arrest No Solution To Mine Dispute—Pettingill
Government action following the temporary restraining order against John L. Lewis will have no effect in stopping a soft-coal strike, in the opinion of Dr. Robert B. Pettengill. associate professor of economics.
“The government will only succeed in making a martyr of Lewis.” Dr. Pettengill said. “It is apparent that to put Lewis in jail would not stop the strike but would only make it more certsfln. since the miners will stand behind Lewis.” GOVERNMENT DODGES ISSUE
Tlie present trouble grew out of the seizure of the mines at the last strike. Dr. Pettengill asserted. Government seizure avoided the real issue, whether the union or the coal operators is the more powerful, and who must yield to compromise. Since the government is now operating the mines, the present difficulty is that the dispute is no longer one between labor and management, but between labor and the government.
Quizzed as to whether there was any relationship between the recent Republican victory and the government action. Dr. Pettengill replied:
“Possibly, but we have had the appearance of crackdowns on Lewis before which turned out to ve otherwise." Government action, he continued, is a manifestation of a “bi£-stick complex” which people
j get during wartime.
“Economically, it is certain that higher wages would mean higher coal prices, which would reduce | sales. This would hurt miners as well as operators in the future.” The coal miners are just as much entitled to S1.75 an hour as the longshoremen, who recently won a contract paying that much or more. Dr. Pettengill added.
SOCIETY TO SUFFER With winter approaching and steel scarce, a work stoppage would be very harmful from society’s viewpoint. “I hope, therefore, that a peaceful compromise may be reached quickly,” he said.
Stressing that a positive program which will eliminate the present stalemate requires a very wide knowledge, Dr. Pettengill said with a smile:
“Not being a radio commentator, I can’t give you my opinion immediately.”
“In a recent pool by the American Arbitration association, I voted in favor of compylsory submission of labor disputes to arbitration.
“If we really believe in free enterprise. we have to let management and labor, or in this case government and labor, slug it out.” Dr. Pettengill concluded. “To do otherwise by putting Lewis in jail is a fascist technique.”
In order to prevent the victimization of students through ! the operation of “football pools,” one of which failed to pay off today, the university through Carl Hancey, dean of men, announced the following policy yesterday:
“Any student found guilty of selling pool tickets or aiding in the sale of such tickets will f-
be subject to disqualification. The purchase or possession of such pool tickets is considered a misdemeanor under Los Angeles Municipal code and will be dealt with accordingly.”
Operating through student sales-

men, at least three groups of racketeers are in action on the campup. local authorities announced.
Pool operators expect to make their big “killing” this weekend from those who buy tickets on the pools covering Saturday’s games.
The racket operate as a lottery device through which students are permitted to win money by guessing the winners of various football games. When the easy money has attracted a sufficient number of the gullible, the payoff man disappears, and the student salesman is left with nothing but excuses with which to pay the winners.
The new university policy is designed to safeguard students, many of whom have lost considerable amounts of money during the last week.
SC Students Plan Recital
Prospective Bachs, Beethovens, and Gershwins of Dr. Ernst Ka-nitz's music compositions classes will present an evening program of their own compositions at 8:15 Dec. 3 in Bowne hall.
The original student composition recital will show trends in the creative musical abilities of young American musicians, acording to Dr. Kanitz, SC assistant professor of music, whose class in composition has drawn students from universities throughout the nation.
Chamber music, piano pieces, and songs, written entirely by students of the SC School of Music, will make up the concert. Many of the young composers will play their own compositions on the piano or other instruments.
Tom Emmitt, vocal soloist, and Glenn Swan, violinist, both members of the music faculty, will take part in the performance.
Ho-Hum—Bruins Licked Again
Two thousand Bruins will storm the campus Thursday and Friday.
Not the real McCoy, of course, but suckers, which bear a remarkable resemblance to their Westwood brothers, made in the shape of bruin heads. Members of Spooks and Spokes will sell the popsicles to Bruin-hungry Trojans.
“If you’ve ever wanted to lick a Bruin, here’s your chance,” said Penny Caras, vice-president in charge of the projact. “Fill your pockets with them, so you can lick the little suckers to your hearts content.”
NEW YORK, Nov. 19. (U.E) — Russian Foreign Minister Viaches-lav Molotov has informed Italy that Russia favors direct negotiations between Italy and Yugoslavia for a settlement of the Trieste problem and the future Itajian-Yugoslav frontier, it was made known tonight.
It was indicated that Russia made known its approval of direct negotiations in hope of winning better terms for Yugoslavia than the foreign ministers have given in the Italian treaty draft which they are now completing.
MOLOTOV GIVES VIEWS
Molotov gave his views in a letter to Pietro Quarino, Italian ambassador to Moscow who is now in New York as a member of an Italian ambassadorial delegation.
The Russian letter was a reply to a note which the Italian ambassadors to the United States. Britain, France and Russia made individually to the big four, suggesting the possibility of direct negotiations. The United States replied coolly that Italy and Yugoslavia might negotiate if they wished but that neither could decide whether any agreement could be approved.
TITO PROPOSES TRADE
The idea of negotiations originated in an offer by Marshal Tito of Yugoslavia to Italian communist leader Palmiro Togliatti to give up ciaims to Trieste if Italy ceded the city of Gorizia to Yugoslavia.
But since then the Big Four had broken the bottleneck which the Trieste problem had presented, and seemed near agreement on final treaties for Italy, Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary, and Finland. Hence Molotov’s letter, if he tried to delay the treaty writing until Italy and Yugoslavia sought direct negotiations. might prove a complication. He has been conciliatory, however, in recent days.
Molotov told Quaronl that Russia took a favorable view toward direct negotiations and any agreement leached —and also approved the Big Four — would “assist in the strengthening of peace in Europe” and would be in accord with the interest of the United Nations.
Plastics Field In LAS Talk

Hope Panics Trojans
Radio Show Pleases Huge Bovard Crowd
by AL HIX
Miriam, the one and only Miriam, was seen and heard by 1800 SC students in Bovard auditorium last night. Mix-iam, of course, is the young lady on the Bob Hope show whose popularity zooms weekly in direct proportion to the amount of irium she consumes.
In addition to Miriam, the crowd which jammed into the auditorium at 6:30 last evening laughed almost continouosly with the master comedian himself and his cast of top notch performers.
JESSEL APPEARS
During the warmup before the program went on the air, Announcer Wendell Niles introduced the cast and guests. Actor-Writer-Pro-ducer Georgie Jessel was introduced and went into immediate competition with Hope for gags.
Another guest, ’Genie Baird, sweet singing vocalist, evoked whistles from the male contingent when she appeared for her pre-broadcast bow in a formfitting black dress.
The regular Tuesday night standbys, Vera Vague and Jerry Colonna were on hand to provide additional comedy for the fast-moving program. •
HOPE QUIPS
Hope’s opening gag after the program had hit the airways set the pace and style for the remainder of the evening's entertainment. He quippe:
“College — that’s where a freshman takes a girl out, looks at her teeth, and says, ‘True or false’?”
Desi Arnaz, in a smart business suit, and his orchestra, looking self-conscious in frilly Cuban costumes, provided fast and furious native music as well as the smooth background necessary for Miss Baird's soft trilling.
With the broadcast out of the way at 7:30. Hope and his gang let their hair down and went to work entertaining the audience with everything from a series of slapstick pantomimes to a barbershop trio involving Hope, Colonna, and Dennis Day, who was backstage as a surprise visitor.
There’s no doubt that everyone, including the football team in the front row and George in the fifteenth, enjoyed the entire program from beginning to end.

Chancellor Receives LLD
For his “contributions to the fields of education, science, and international affairs” Dr. Rufus B. von KleinSmid was awarded an honorary LL.D. degree last Tuesday in ceremonies at William Jewell college. Kansas City. The degree was conferred at the annual Achievement day dinner following an address by Dr. von KleinSmid, the principal speaker of the evening.
“Clearly, permanent peace is a matter of world adjustment and economic distribution,” Dr. von KleinSmid stated. He also warned against the force policy in attempts to protect the security of the world.
“A strong army and navy are no guarantee of p^pce. In the present unified world we must learn that the future of all is involved in a mutuality of interest. Let us seek justice first of all and peace will be realized as its natural outgrowth,” he said.
Interesting events of the Achievement day program were student forums led by Dr. von KleinSmid, and other guests of the college.
