Jo Stafford To Plug SC On Air Shows
Songstress Jo Stafford, the girl with a quaver fci her voice that leaves a hemidemisemiquaver in the listener's seart, has promised to devote two NBC broadcasts on Dec. 4. to SC's homecoming theme. Bill Winn, homecoming chairman, said yesterday.
Both shows will be broadcast from the Shrine auditorium, which will seat 6700 students. The first show starts at 4 p.m.. Winn said, and will be directed at East coast audiences. The second show, intended for Wrest coast listeners, begins at 8 p.m.
OTHER STARS TOO Arrangements for the Jo Stafford show were made by the university with R. E Packham. producer. Paul Weston and his band will play a 15-minute musical program after each Stafford show. Winn said that Mr.
Packman had also agreed to work with the university in obtaining “other top stars, who will furnish an additional 30 minutes of entertainment.’ *
WAGNER DIRECTS Howard Wagner has been appointed student homecoming chairman for the Jo Stafford show, Winn explained, and plans axe being made to have Miss Stafford sing “the three most popular songs in the nation, as selected by the Trojan student body.”

Students to Select Grid Star of Year
“Trojan Football Player of the Year” will be officially chosen by the students of Troy this year in a Knight-sponsored election to be held at the end of the season after the SC-Notre Dame game, Ernie Wilson, president of the Trojan
Knights, said yesterday.
Kooker to Talk At LAS Series
“The political scare of a possible third party in 1948 is hard to evaluate and difficult for a historian to predict,” said Dr. Arthur R. Kooker, associate professor of history, who will give the seventh LAS lecture on "The Third Party in American History” in the. art and lecture room of the University library this afternoon at 3:15.
Dr. Kooker refused to commit himself on the current third party movement and explained that there has been no strong indication from dissenting elements of the Democratic party that they will not work within the framework of the party rather than form a new party, a move which historically has proved to be a potent method of helping the opposition to get into the White House.
TRACE HISTORY
The professor pointed out that in his lecture today he would trace the history of third parties in America and discuss their effect on social and economic legislation.
students will be asked to name what they consider the three top tunes in the nation.”
FREE TICKETS
In describing the issue of tickets for the broadcast, Winn emphasized that “they are free, and the fairest possible means of distribution will be employed.” He said the paramount reason for selecting the Shrine for the show was “to make it easier for more students to attend.”
Prior to the 8 p.m. broadcast, students will form a victory parade, starting on Figueroa and ending at the Shrine. After the show, Winn said, other group activities are planned—possibly a bonfire back of Bridge hall where the Irish will be burned in effigy.

lutionary movements which started over 300 years ago.
In tracing the history of the Slavic people who are believed to have originated 25 centuries ago, Dr. Lopatin said that in 862 A.D. the first official dynasty was found in northwest Russia, but that archaeologists know that there were confederations at least 800 years before when such cities as Kiev and Smolensk existed.
DIFFERENCES “Many reasons for the difference in Russia and western civilization are that the former drew much of its culture from the Greeks, and the western civilization depended mostly on the Romans.” Professor Lopatin continued. “Even Christianity coming into Russia was different from that which was known in Europe as it was the Byzantine branch of religion and not the Roman Catholic.” •
MOSCOW WAS LATE According to historical studies, Moscow didn't become the center of Russian culture until after the !3th century, the speaker indicated. It was through the strong rule of the princes of Moscow that other provinces were consolidated around that city, eventually forming a Soviet nation
White Rose' Hop Planned
Tlie Epsilon Omicron chapter of Sigma Nu fraternity has announced the presentation of its eighth annual White Rose dance Saturday evening at the Uplifter’s club in Santa Monica.
The affair, which will be formal, will have music provided by Allen Albright and his orchestra. Those attending will include members of the SC chapter and their guests.
the time, later have been incorporated in laws and statutes,” the historian added.
Concerning the beneficial effects of third parties, Dr. Kooker said that “they serve as a foundation for reform movements. They give reformers a chance to express their dissatisfaction, and this is good for tlie old-line parties that may not be serving the best interests, of the people.
LOCAL SUCCESS
“It is to be noted,” cautioned the historian, “that third parties do not thrive on the national level, but have more success on a local level where they are able to form effective voting blocs.”
When queried about a possible third party from the ranks of labor, Dr. Kooker stated that prior to the organization of tlie CIO labor had followed the policy of re-i maining aloof from politics and set j down by the AFL. He reiterated I that no substantial evidence has been uncovered to indicate a possible third party since labor has apparently decided to work with the old parties.
‘Next month’s contest will be an annual event at SC.” said Wilson. “Each year the player of the season will be elected and honored by the entire student body.”
Voting for the gridiron hero of 1947 will take place on Dec. 8, the Monday following the Notre Dame game, at tables to be set up in front of all buildings on campus. Students will vote by ballot and will be allowed to write only one name on each ballot. There will be no registration for voting in the contest, but the student body card of each person casting his vote will be stamped on the back with the words “Trojan Knight’' to prevent any student from voting more than once.
On Friday, Dec. 12. at 12 noon, this year's elected football player of the year will be honored by the men and women of SC in a ceremony to be held at the Gates of Troy. On the corner of 34th street and University avenue, a cement block will be tom out of the sidewalk -next to George Tirebiter’s cardinal cement square, and in that space will be put a gold-colored cement block with the name and cleat-print of the elected football hero stamped under the title “Trojan Football Player of the Year.” The following year the football player of 1948 will have his name and cleat-print stamped in a cardinal-colored cement square next to the gold one of 1947. In each additional year the tradition will continue so that a pattern of cardinal and gold blicks will appear down the sidewalk.
The Trojan Knights will also honor the player of the year with the presentation of a mahogany plaque. The plaque will contain an engraved bronze plate giving the name and title bestowed on the player. The plaque will not be a revolving award but will be allowed to remain in the hands of the elected football player of the year.

In tracing the history of the Slavic people who are believed to have originated 25 centuries ago, Dr. Lopatin said that in 862 A.D. the first official dynasty was found in northwest Russia, but that archaeologists know that there were confederations at least 800 years before when such cities as Kiev and Smolensk existed. DIFFERENCES “Many reasons for the difference in Russia and western civilization are that the former drew much of its culture from the Greeks, and the western civilization depended mostly on the Romans.” Professor Lopatin continued. “Even Christianity coming into Russia was different from that which was known in Europe as it was the Byzantine branch of religion and not the Roman Catholic.” • MOSCOW WAS LATE According to historical studies, Moscow didn't become the center of Russian culture until after the !3th century, the speaker indicated. It was through the strong rule of the princes of Moscow that other provinces were consolidated around that city, eventually forming a Soviet nation White Rose' Hop Planned Tlie Epsilon Omicron chapter of Sigma Nu fraternity has announced the presentation of its eighth annual White Rose dance Saturday evening at the Uplifter’s club in Santa Monica.

Concerning the beneficial effects of third parties, Dr. Kooker said that “they serve as a foundation for reform movements. They give reformers a chance to express their dissatisfaction, and this is good for tlie old-line parties that may not be serving the best interests, of the people. LOCAL SUCCESS “It is to be noted,” cautioned the historian, “that third parties do not thrive on the national level, but have more success on a local level where they are able to form effective voting blocs.” When queried about a possible third party from the ranks of labor, Dr. Kooker stated that prior to the organization of tlie CIO labor had followed the policy of re-i maining aloof from politics and set j down by the AFL. He reiterated I that no substantial evidence has been uncovered to indicate a possible third party since labor has apparently decided to work with the old parties. ‘Next month’s contest will be an annual event at SC.” said Wilson. “Each year the player of the season will be elected and honored by the entire student body.” Voting for the gridiron hero of 1947 will take place on Dec. 8, the Monday following the Notre Dame game, at tables to be set up in front of all buildings on campus. Students will vote by ballot and will be allowed to write only one name on each ballot. There will be no registration for voting in the contest, but the student body card of each person casting his vote will be stamped on the back with the words “Trojan Knight’' to prevent any student from voting more than once. On Friday, Dec. 12. at 12 noon, this year's elected football player of the year will be honored by the men and women of SC in a ceremony to be held at the Gates of Troy. On the corner of 34th street and University avenue, a cement block will be tom out of the sidewalk -next to George Tirebiter’s cardinal cement square, and in that space will be put a gold-colored cement block with the name and cleat-print of the elected football hero stamped under the title “Trojan Football Player of the Year.” The following year the football player of 1948 will have his name and cleat-print stamped in a cardinal-colored cement square next to the gold one of 1947. In each additional year the tradition will continue so that a pattern of cardinal and gold blicks will appear down the sidewalk. The Trojan Knights will also honor the player of the year with the presentation of a mahogany plaque. The plaque will contain an engraved bronze plate giving the name and title bestowed on the player. The plaque will not be a revolving award but will be allowed to remain in the hands of the elected football player of the year.

Dr. Robinson pointed out that Professor Mannheim grew up in Genpany under the government of the Kaiser and was later forced to leave by the Hitler regime. After leaving Germany he taught at the London School of Economics. “Of his three major books ‘Ideology and Utopia’ is probably the greatest and may have a far-reaching effect on the future,” Dr. Robinson stated. The director of tlie SC School of Philosophy emphasized that while Professor Mannheim believed that a planned economy is the answer to present world evils, he did not accept communism or fascism in his conception of planned economy. .... football squat! - members will meet in the Varsi \ lounge.
