Committee Begins Quest For Helen'
By AL BINE
Applications for USC’s homecoming queen contest will be available through October 12 in 232 SU, Bill Heeres, contest chairman, announced yesterday.
The quest for Helen of Troy will end October 31 at Trolios. Her majesty, along with a court of other charmers, will be introduced to the student bor^ during the homecoming vai.ety show.
Helen Represents
"Helen of Troy represents the epitome of what the USC woman is supposed to represent,” explained Heeres.
"As in the past Helen will be selected o n the basis of greater cirteria than just pure beauty,” Heeres said. "Judging Will also be based on the worn-ans intelligence, poise, ability to carry on a conversation and ccmmon sense.”
Preliminary judging will be held on Oct. 16, 18 and 23. The semi-final session will be on Oct. 25 and the finals are slated for Oct. 30 during a dinner at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.
Must Attend
Heeres emphasized that contestants must attend all judg-ings.
Junior or senior women »/ho have attended USC for a year with a minimum grade point average of 2.5 are eligible to compete for the coveted Helen title. Heeres said.
A $2 entrance fee must accompany applications, which are due Oct. 12.
Delta Gamma's pert Carolce Reem, a blonde senior major ing in English, reigned as Helen of Troy throughout homecoming week last year. Her princesses included sorority sis ter Mary Westover; Thetas Faye Henderson Hauser and Margarethe Bertelson: and Pi Phi Linda Petrie.
Faculty Musicians to Play At Junior College Theater
Two USC faculty members will be featured in a concert tonight at 8:30 in El Camino College Campus Theater.
Harpsichordist Alice Ehlers, emeritus professor of music, and violinist Eudice Shapiro, lecturer in violin, will perform for the college audience.
The program will include solos and duets by the pair. They will demonstrate techniques they have developed from close association in 24 years of working together.
Dr. Ehlers was born in Vienna, Austria, where she received her first musical training. She is now working, as she explains, to “bring out as many good students as I can.”
Miss Shapiro began studying music early in her childhood. She has attended Eastman School of Music, Rochester School of Music, and Curtis Institute of Philadelphia.
Mmes. Ehlers and Shapiro became a team in 1938, shortly after the former came to California. “We understood each other,” Miss Shapiro said. “We appreciated each other’s music. We were both very enthusiastic.”
Tickets foe the Friday night performance will be available at the box office the evening of the program. The program is being sponsored by El Camino College Campus Theater and the school’s student personnel office.

Junior Men May Apply For Awards
Trojans interested in applying for 1962 Rhodes Scholarships should sign up in 212 SU as soon as possible, Dr. John E. Cantelon. university chaplain and scholarship adviser, said yesterday.
The awards are available to unmarried male United States citizens with a junior class status. Applicants must be between the ages of 18 and 24 and have the endorsement of the university, Dr. Cantelon said.
Rhodes Scholars are awarded approximately $2,250.00 a year for two years of study at Oxford University. A third year award is possible if the student’s record merits, he explained.
A candidate’s eligibility is based on literary' and scholastic ability and attainments, truthfulness, courage, devotion to duty, exhibition of moral force of character, physical vigor shown in sports and a definite quality of distinction. Dr. Cantelon said.
He said last year two Trojans were successful as far as the state selection board in San Francisco, which was “indicative of the increasing academic standard at USC.”
He added that students should have a cumulative grade point average of 3.7 before applying.
Art Historian Accepts Post
Dr. Paul M. Laporte. Los Angeles art historian, has Joined the USC faculty to teach Renaissance and contemporary art history. Dr. Neil D. Warren, dean of the College of letters, Arts and Science, announced recently.
Dr. Importe has served as professor of fine arts at Immaculate Heart College. He has contributed to the university's art history program in recent years through University College and summer sessions.
KUSC-FM, the university's radio station, will begin its 17th year of broadcasting cultural and educational programs Monday, Steve Nenno, publicity director, announced yesterday.
Under the direction of Dr. Kenneth Harwood, station manager, manyr foreign produced programs such as Music from Germany and Masterworks from France, along with such students produced programs as Trojan Digest and Afternoon Concert, will again be returning to the air.
Campus Activities
KUSC will also broadcast USC campus activities, includ-

ture series on science.
Some of the new shows to premiere on KUSC this fall are “Foothill Fables” and "Music Relays” from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, the "Faculty Viewpoint,” and two new KUSC produced shows — "Broadway Alley” and "Jazz, Scene One.”
An expanded "USC In The News” program will be heard nightly for a full 15 minutes and will include the latest news from the USC campus.
Volunteers
KUSC is run completely by volunteer students from university schools and colleges. The station acts as the key outlet of the West Educational Radio Network (WESTern), which is a live FM network composed of Southern California college stations, Nenno said.
Through this network, KUSC is able to broadcast educational and cultural events from the campuses of other colleges in the area, he explained.
The station published a bimonthly program schedule available without charge to listeners.
Ron Yeakley, USCs broadcast specialist, said yesterday that the only sure way of catching the program will be to check the TV log from week to week.
"The program’s time will vary, depending on the locations of the games.” he explained. Dr. Baxter is normally seen at 5 p.m. on Channel 4.
Rodger Swearingen, the director of USC’s research institute on Communist strategy and propaganda, began a CBS Sunday series called “Communism: Myth vs. Reality” on Sept. 16. The show was replaced by the Pacific Southwest Tennis Tournament Sunday and won't resume until Oct. 7 at 4:30 p.m.
USP Charges Senate Seats Kept Closed
By DAN SMITH Daily Trojan City Editor
Two ASSC officials yesterday gave conflicting answers to a charge by University Students Party (USP) representatives that petitioning for unfilled Senate seats was being kept illegally closed.
Dick Messer, ASSC Elections Commission©^ said petitioning would be opened for those offices as soon as Senate President Barbara Shell could determine the number of vacancies that remained.
Conflicting Opinion A conflicting opinion came from Mike Robinson, administrative assistant to the Senate for ASSC President Bart Led-del. Robinson claimed the sen atorial offices could not be thrown open to a student vote because the ASSC constitution says s u!c h vacancies must be filled by appointments.
Section 4, part C of the con stitution provides that the "executive authority” of fields of studies that have senatorial vacancies must appoint qualified replacements.
Robinson said he had discussed the situation with Led-del and he and the president had agreed vacancies should be filled by field of study presidents.
Senators Lost
But Messer said Miss Shell had been working during the week to determine which fields had lost senators during the summer and which had not been able to elect senators at the spring elections.
He promised to release Miss Shell’s findings today and open petitioning. Messer said he would extend the present Oct. 4 petition deadline if he felt office-seekers needed more time because of the late notice.
Messer indicated that no pe jtitions had been filled for freshman class president. He said five men had petitioned for class president Their names cannot be released tin til petitioning closes, he said.

Tonight marks a milestone in USC’s history of foreign-American student relations.
The International Student House opens its doors for the first time at 7 pjn. Under the direction of senior Russ Decker and graduate student Aslam Niaz, the center has grown from a dream to a reality. 1
Decker invited all students to attend the open house festivities and tour the partially completed center.
Decker still recalls that dream. “We hope the house will provide an opportunity for the American and foreign students to become aware of each other. The house will be a place for them to touch fingertips. It will be a place for relationships to begin,” he said.
When the house opens tonight, it will be on shaky ground. The lease has yet to be signed and the monetary pledges from the houses on the Row are only trickling in.
Donation» Pledged | Fraternities and sororities are each pledged to donate $15 per month toward the upkeep and the rent for the house. As | of today, 23 have signed pledges. This totals $345 per month.
The rent charged by the uni-Jversity, which owns the build-; ing, is $500 per month. But Decker said there will be more than enough to cover the difference coming in from outside I donations.
