*cepted the same industry 12*4-cent I hourly hike that has been rejected j by the CIO union, was viewed by I some as an entering wedge that ; may eventually influence the CIO to compromise on the wage issue.
The IUFW is about one-third the size of the striking CIO Oil Workers’ International union. Its new contract covers 1089 union employees in the Union Oil field department and in the pipeline, purchasing and automotive divisions retroactively to July 3, 1948. The agreement was reached in Los Angeles and announced both there and in San Francisco.
The action was the highlight ot the day in the crippling oil strike. The industry, meanwhile, apparently was making legal moves to open tank truck supply lines from distribution points that have been closed off by picketing.
In what was believed to be the first such njpye, one of California’s struck oil companies had obtained a temporary injunction preventing mass picketing of bulk delivery depots.
Prompted by a deteriorating supply situation that threatened to leave retail stations short within 48 hours, the Tide Water-Associated Oil company served the striking CIO Oil Workers International union with a state-wide restraining order.

Sheep Neurosis Talk in Bowne
Dr. H. S. Liddell, experimental psychologist from Cornell university, will lecture at Bowne hall in the Philosophy building at 7:30 tonight.
His topic will be “Environmental Stress and Animal Neurosis.” The lecture is sponsored by the chology department and Psi national honorary society of psychologists.
Dr. Liddell is widely-known for his experiments on the conditioning of sheep. He is a guest speaker at the Hixon symposium now being held at the California Institute of Technology.
“The induction of experimental neurosis in lower animals by use of the frustration technique has implications for behavior problems in humans,” said Allan Canfield, instructor in psychology at SC.
Bowne hall has a seating capacity of only 150, so interested persons should come early, advised Canfield.
A discussion period will follow the lecture. All students and friends are cordially invited. There is no admittance charge.

Western Allies Confront Russ WithFinal Note
Three Powers May Dump Berlin Crisis On General Assembly
LONDON, Sept. 22—T h e United States, Great Britain and France sent Russia a “final” note tonight, asking her in effect: “Will you or will you not accept four-power control of Berlin?”
The alternative to a satisfactory reply will be an appeal by the western allies to the United Nations, throwing the whole German situation before that world body.
Secretary of State George C. Marshall and British Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin agreed to one more note to Moscow on the plea of French Foreign Minister Robert Schuman, whose insecure government wants to put off a final showdown with Russia as long as possible.
NO CHANCE
(Acting Secretary of State Robert A. Lovett declined in Washington to discuss the notes, saying that the situation was in the hands of General Marshall in Paris, so that there would be no confusion. Lovett told reporters that the center of gravity had moved to Paris. He emphasized the word “gravity.”) Andrei Y. Vishinsky, peppery Russian chief delegate, in an afternoon session speech, denounced alleged machinations of the “Anglo-American bloc” in the UN, and hinted that Russia might not always be a member of the UN.
Russia is already on the defensive in the UN annual General Assembly which opened here yesterday.
VISHINSKY ANGERED Vishinsky was angered yesterday when the Assembly ignored the Russian bloc in electing a president and chairmen of the six chief Assembly committees, and again this morning when only Russia and Poland were included among the seven vice-presidents. *
These elections meant that Russia has only two members on the 14-member, all powerful Steering committee which consists of the Assembly president, the seven vice-presidents and the six committee chairmen.
Photo Stragglers Get Last Chance
Don’t get shut out. The student activity ticket situation is haltingly entering its final stages and will be wound up today and tomorrow.
All those who may still desire to view the year’s athletic events via a student book had better drag their weary bodies over to the first floor of the Elisabeth von KieinSmid hall immediately. Today’s 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. stint is to be the last appearance of the photographer on campus.
In addition to initial purchasers, all retakes who have not had their second pose filmed must also face the camera today. Numbers 1844,
1845, 1846, and 2080 have been added to the retake list.
Negatives on the first three were fogged over, while 2080 hid the distinguishing features of his physiognomy behind a pair of sun glasses.
Distribution of processed tickets continues today with numbers above 4500 on deck. All ducats purchased during the first two weeks are ready, but those sold this week will not be available for several days.
The Student Union patio booths will also be open tomorrow to accommodate stragglers in the pickup process.	v.
3 Campaigners Hurl Charges
Sept. 22—(U.P)—President Truman appealed to the people of California tonight to “vote the straight Democratic ticket in November” to “keep the country from going to the dogs.’1
En route to two major speeches in San Francisco and Oakland tonight, Mr. Truman, in a series of stops along the central valley of California, heaped new scorn on the Republican leaders whom he described as “a bunch of old moss-backs.”
Dewey Flails Truman
ALBUQUERQUE, N. M.. Sept. 22 —(UI!) — Gov. Thomas E. Dewey charged tonight that “mistaken policies, bad management, and poor judgement” by the Truman administration are aiding the inflation.
The Republican presidential nominee made the charge in a speech in which he discussed what he called two fundamental problems facing the American people — inflation and the threat of another world war.
Warren Hits Democrats
LOUISVILLE, Ky., Sept. 22 — (l'.P)—Gov. Earl Warren, Republican vice presidential candidate, tonight accused the Democratic administration of endangering the nation’s bi-partisan foreign policy by withholding information from the people.
“While Republicans, in and out of Congress, have shown a degree of cooperation in foreign affairs never equalled by any opposition party, they have not always been admitted to the confidence of the present administration,” he told a crowd of 3,000 Republicans.

Stars Headline Pregame Rally For Tomorrow
The biggest, noisiest, most talent-studded all-U rally of the year, Troy’s first all-American day, breaks loose tomorrow on University avenue in front of Phelps-Terkel.
At noon the celebration will begin with a pre-Oregon game rally. Yell King Jack McKee and his assistants will start the yellfest on the dot.
An imposing list of entertainers, including Milt Raskin, Capitol star; Kay Starr, vocalist; the Pied Pipers, and the Dick Kane trio will furnish the harmony.
Many of Troy’s past all-Ameri-cans will be there to set their footprints in fresh cement beside those of Coach Dean Cromwell, last year’s all-American end Paul Cleary and George Tirebiter.
Past football stars who have already agreed to be there are Morley Drurey, quarterback, and Jesse Hibbs, tackle, of the ’27 team; Ernie Pinckert, halfback, and Orv Mohler, quarterback, of the 1930 team; Gaius Shaver, fullback, ’31; Ernie Smith, tackle in 1932; Aaron Rosenberg, tackle and Irvine Warburton, quarterback, of the 1933 team; and John Ferraro, tackle of the ’44 and ’47 teams.
Match-happy students who insist on warming things up will find themselves outside the Coliseum searching for a television set, warned Morey Thomas, president of the Trojan Knights. The Knights have been delegated the job of enforcing order.
“We wish to thank students for their splendid cooperation at the SC-Utah game,” said Thomas. “Many compliments were received by us concerning the card stunts, and since these are unrehearsed and depend solely on student cooperation, we think the entire card section deserves a vote of thanks.” Game-going attire will be standard, said Thomas. Th^s includes white shirts and rooters caps for men; white blouses or sweaters for women with pompons optional.
Rooters should enter gate 23. The gate will open at 6:30.
Trojans Glad To See Razing 0( Old College
Sentiment Lacking As Students and Faculty Approve Development
The fact that Old College is soon to be but a memory seems to have little effect on students and faculty of the university.
Typical student opinion on the prospective razing came from George Marshal, education student, who 'said, “Nothing but good!” He pointed out that the venerable old halls creak and crack under every footstep, and that the building is just “too antiquated.”
“Let’s not bring sentiment into it,” quoted Leland T. Dalby, lecturer in accounting, when asked if he had any feelings about the aged edifice. “Sentimentality should nut take the place of practicality in such matters,” he added. As far as Mr. Dalby is concerned, there wiU be “little inconvenience” in the movement of his classes.
In the department of drama, Prof. James Harmon Butler says that the OC razing will “be better for the university in the long run.”
Professor Butler said he did not know where the department of drama will be moved, but expressed his desire for a permanent on-campus theater.
So far, Touchstone theater will remain where it is; future location is still a mystery. The class seminar in playwriting is now being conducted in Mudd hall, history of the theater in Elisabeth von KieinSmid hall, and analysis of drama takes place in the art and lecture room of the Doheny library.
Myles Tracy, assistant professor of finance, says, “I do not think that tradition should stand in the way of the removal of a building this size.” Professor Tracy also remarked that the building is outdated and “unsatisfactory for teaching.”
Husbands Cleared Of Ticket Charge
Some Submit to Punishment; Others Submit Marriage License
“Approximately 50 per cent of the men charged with trying to get activity books for non-existent wives have cleared themselves by presenting marriage licenses,” Dr. Albert F. Zech, counselor of men, said yesterday.
The other students have cooperated with his office in
submitting to their due punish-*-.

to be false.

“Leniency will be afforded those who applied for the tickets in the expectation of getting married within the next month,” Dr. Zech said. Money for the extra books will be
Knights Ponder Tirebiters Fate
George Tirebiter, Troy’s famous canine character and campus mascot remained in “protective custody” today at an undisclosed dog emporium as his fate remained undecided.
George has been in hot “aqua” with the city health department as the result of throwing his bicuspids around on two occasions at products strictly not rubber. As a result, department officials have ordered that George be placed on a leash or turned over to them for confinement in the city pound.
Morey Thomas, president of the Knights said yesterday that the question of what to do with Tirebiter was discussed at last night’s regular meeting and would be brought up for more conclusive action at next Wednesday's meeting.
Meanwhile the DT i n q u i re d among John Q. Trojan in an effort to determine what they thought should be done with George. The following lucid comments were the result.
LeRoy Moser, PKT, — “George should be given a new leash on life.”
Don Lloyd, Petroleum engineering, — “The school should erect a campus kennel specifically for George.”
Creater-U Croup Announces Plans
Bob McClymonds, chairman of the Greater University committee, today announced a work schedule for the group designed to break bottle-necks and bring some of the most sorely-needed improvements to the campus.
Plans include work toward a better health service on
the establishment of an 4----
campus,
international house, water fountains and bookracks in the Cellar, and investigation of the traffic problem.
The committee is primarily a planning and research group, McClymonds said. It investigates problems and suggested projects on campus and reports to the student senate. After senate approval, the various service groups usually carry out the projects.
Among its regular assignments, the committee revises and publishes the student handbook, plans the annual high school band contest, and supervises High School day, when local high school seniors are shown around the campus.
Other projects, which MoCly-monds labeled as tentative, are investigation of food facilities on campus, plans for coke-vending machines, and an attempt to get veterans from Birmingham hospital into Trojan football games.
Recently appointed members of the committee are Don Black, Pat Cameron, Bob Flower, Norm Folpe, Elwood Houseman, Jo Ann Innes, John McElderrey, Patti Peter, Bill Stevens, and Bob Reis.
McClymonds has asked members to meet today at 4 in the ASSC president’s office, 235 Student Union.

refunded to the future bridegrooms, because today is the last opportunity to apply for tickets.
In case the student is a wife and wishes to get a book for her spouse, she may get the extra book in the same manner as male students. No identification of extra book holders will be necessary. Should the student be unable to attend, the one holding the extra book will be admitted to the activities without the corresponding student ducat. SALES TOTAL 9600 Ticket sales have dropped a little this year to a total of 9600, said Ticket Manager John Morley. He attributes the decrease to the necessity of having photographs on the football ticket books, since they were not required last year. An even more foolproof system of eliminating ticket scalping and misuse is being planned for next year by the ticket office.
Students who do not purchase their activity books by the deadline today wall not be able to get one until February. Then they will pay $6.50 for the remaining semester. The $13.50 paid this semester is for the whole year. Both purchases include a copy of the El Rodeo, the student yearbook which comes out next June. An estimated $o is alloted for the El Rodeo.
In buying a student activity book, the holder is entitled to a reduction in the tax on football tickets, as well as getting a bargain on the tickets themselves.
NeedsTiming, Says Yell King
Plans for providing more spirit in the SC rooting section were announced today by Yell King Jack McKee.
“By closely coordinating the efforts of the yell leaders, the rooting section, and the band, we feel that we can get the maximum amount of spirit behind our football team,” he said.
To facilitate this cooperation a weekly meeting is held by a co-I ordination committee composed of Morey Thomas, Knights president; Jack McKee, yell king; Tommy Walker, Trojan band; and Bill Hobba, card-stunt designer*.
Under this new system the yell leaders and band alternate in their efforts rather than compete directly against each other.
“We will have fewer yells, but the ones that we do have should be louder,” McKee said.
The yell king and his yell leaders plaji to try out some of the newer yells during the hour before kick-off Friday night.
“The only way we can make SO rooters heard is to stay together, and the only way to stay together is to keep your eye on your yell leaders,” McKee concluded.
Painters Butch Freshman Hop
There’s confusion everywhere. Even the painters helped this dilemma.
The confusion started when th# freshman council, which doesn’t exist yet, was supposed to give a “Get Acquainted” dance for freshmen and transfer students today ac 3:15 p.m. in the student lounge.
When the absence of a freshman council was discovered, the job of sponsoring the dance was turned over to the sophomore council. After preparations were started and the announcement of the dance had been placed in the DT, Bill Dineen, sophomore prexy, found that the student lounge was being painted and would continue to be painted for another week.
Result? There will be no “Get Acquainted” dance for freshman and transfer students today at 3; 15. Don't be discouraged, advised Dineen, there may be a dance yet.
