“I don’t think anyone will complain,’* he added.
On hand to personally greet the visiting Redskins will be Johnny Davis, ASSC president, who will provide for their reception and any help they may need in pulling off the stunt.
BIG AUDIENCE Playing before the biggest crowd in its history, an estimated 55,000, Utah is making the most of its rare fortune. Although not a small school, she belongs to a relatively minor league.
Nash recalled the hectic days of the early 1930’s when Texas Christian and Southern Methodist regularly played on campus enroute to their Santa Clara games.
“It hasn’t happened since then,” Nash mused, “and it is the first time in our .History that one of our actual opponents has pulled a serenade on us.’*
Tommy Walker, leader of the 100-piece Trojan bwid, •will be on the scene with his musicians to counter-serenade the Redskins, assuring p° applications for the band plenty of noise for all. The band [taken after Sept. 22, those been practicing intensively for H are urged to report to coliseum game Friday night ■ office at once. an(i ^ ^ {ine styie.

V V ^ f f fl tl1! 11# noon in busses, the Redskins were l/l w originally planning to execute their maneuver in Indian motif today, but it was found that their instruments would not arrive in time. Parry Sorensen, Utah’s athletic news director, and Ron Gregory, band leader, in conjunction with Dick Nash planned the novel event.
Mark Cannon, associated students president at Utah, and Johnny Davis will meet informally shortly before the Salt Lake team departs on Saturday. Both prexies have ex-cnanged friendly correspondence for some time prior to the game. DAVIS EAGER “We are looking forward to meeting the boys from Salt Lake,” Johnny explained. “It is our first game with them and a really important event for both of us.” My assistants and I personally will do everything in our power to assist the band and the team in serenading the student body as planned.” “Utah’s Crimson and White is not in the habit of playing for its rival teams. It is just something extra for the occasion,” Nash emphasized.
If there is any plaster left on the walls around here it will not be the musicians’ fault, he observed.

Waldinger voiced many grievances regarding the SC system in general, but since he is a UCLA graduate this is not too hard to understand. He admits that his campus stint has been saturated with kicks, not the least of which being the one purchaser who tried to chin himself on the backdrop after turning his back to the camera, a la chest X-ray. Several potential scalpers are said to have hurriedly about-faced when they saw the camera.
WOMEN WON’T SMILE
SC women leave Waldinger cold, and he had difficulty in coaxing a grin out of the campus belles, while the male students invariably flashed Hollywood smiles that stretched from Exposition to Jefferson.
Students who make their ticket purchases today or tomorrow will not have their season books processed in time tor the Oregon tilt, but some arrangement will be made for admittance to the tussle.

Stopped
Powers Of Cabinet Increased; Dominion Flyers Attack Enemy
NEW DELHI, India, Sept. 15 —(UP)—India was placed 011 a complete war footing today as its troops, battling toward Hyderabad’s capital, were reported to have been stopped cold on two fronts by Moslem guerrillas.
Premier Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru’s cabinet issued a
sweeping “public safety ordinance” giving the government power to requisition and mobilize men and material for the war against the Nizam of Hyderabad.
The only major successes reported by Indian field commanders were in northwest Hyderabad, where the state’s second city, Aurangabad, fell after being declared an “open city” by its defenders, and on the northeastern front where the campaign was said to be “going well.”
The main Indian striking force— the First Armored division which yesterday climaxed an 85-mile drive from Sholapur by capturing Rasa-jur, half-way point on the West-East highway to Hyderabad city-gained only 10 miles in the past 24 hours, the army spokesman acknowledged.
Bevin Attacks Commie Tactics
LONDON, Sept. 15—(U.E)—Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin today
charged that Communists, led by the Moscow-dominated Cominform, sought to wipe out all Western influence in vast Southeast Asia.
Deploring India's invasion of Hyderabad, possibly with the momentous diplomatic struggle between Russia and the Western powers also in mind, Bevin said:
“Never was there a time when have to exercise greater care thsm you have now lest you find yourself landed into another world struggle.”

Tom Perry, in charge of orientation this semester, promises that the evening will not be dull, and to back up his promise he offers the talents of vocalist Kay Starr, the | Dick Kane trio, and the comedy team of Astor and McEwen. Miss Starr and the Dick Kane trio appear through the courtesy of Eddie DeSure, owner of the Oasis restau-lant.
REFRESHMENTS AT 7
The cider and doughnut department will set up shop at 7 in the Student Union. The program, starting at 7:30, will cover as many new students’ problems as possible, Perry stated.
Dr. Zech will officially welcome the students to Troy and will offer practical suggestions on university/ life.

LEONARD JOHNSON . . . battle cry
Petitions Open For Non-Orgs
“More representation for independents!” has been a battlecry in campus politics for many years, and the formation of the Independent council affords all non-Greek students representation in the student government. Petitions for those who want to join the council are available in 235 Student Union and will have to be turned in by 4 p.m. next Wednesday.
Leonard Johnson, independent representative in the student senate and head of the council, has said that the membership of the council will be enlarged from the 15 in last year’s group to an as yet undetermined number. With a larger council, non-organized students may take a wider interest and participate more in student activities this year, Johnson said yesterday. The organization is concerned with coordinating independent activities and social events.
After the petitions have been reviewed, the council will be formed and a definite meeting time and place will be established. Heretofore, the council met once a week.
First Grid Rally Set For Tomorrow Noon
Timbers in Bovard auditorium are i rally to get the season started
due to shake tomorrow when the season's first pregame rally explodes at noon.
Competent fuse lighters in the form of Tommy Walker and the SC football band, Yell King Jack McKee and his boys, radio disc jockey Jim Hawthorne, and Ike
Carpenter making the ivories jump will supply the spark to Trojan spirit. George Tirebiter has given his personal promise to organize all canine rooters present.
Listeners to “Hogan” Hawthorne’s zany spiel over KECA every night at 10:30 may have an inkling of what to expect from him when he appears on the Bovard stage. Hawthorne’s home-town Chamber of
Fraternities and sororities are requested to dispense with the usual noon lunch hour on Friday in order that members may attend the rally in Bovard auditorium at 12.
Commerce in Victor, Colo, has been quick to state that the high altitude of the Rocky Mountain areas is not injurious to gray matter.
To aid the straining vocal chords of rabid rooters, Bob Rousso, chairman of the rally committee, has promised each and every person who carries two lungs and a will to use them through the Bovard portals tomorrow noon a shiny new megaphone plus songsheet. He urged all students to attend the
with a bang.
During the program, members of the SC coaching staff and the varsity football team will be introduced to the audience.
The Utes will offer their own contribution to the day's rah-rah stuff when the University of Utah band arrives on campus at 2 p.m. to serenade the hoarse rooters who stagger out of Bovard.
KAY STARR .. . offers talents
university social life is very important. We want each man to join at least one extra-curricular activity.” ALL MEN INVITED Davis wiU discuss general activities on the campus, and Thomas will explain campus organizations and their activities. Yell King Jack McKee will be there with his assistants to lead some yells and explain seating and rooting procedure at games.
“All men students are invited to attend the smoker,” said Perry, “but we especially urge freshmen and transfers to be there.
“The program is the result of This is the first of ten pregame j careful planning, and we feel that it rallys which are scheduled for the I will offer substantial and practical season. I help to new Trojans.”
ASSC Senate Ratifies Heads Of Committees
Committee appointment and reports marked the first ASSC Senate meeting last night. Convening in a fourth floor Student Union classroom because of redecoration of the regular Senate chambers, the body took steps to start student government rolling.
Helen Hall Moreland, dean of women, addressed the Senate and urged the members to take the responsibilities involved in student government.
“My job is to help you get more student government and responsibility,” Dean Moreland said. “Future leadership, I am convinced, will come from American universities and very possibly from SC.”
INVESTIGATE TRAINS ASSC President John Davis, as was expected, appointed a committee to investigate the transportation service for the Stanford football trip. Pointing out that in the past the trains carrying SC students north had been late and unsanitary, Davis said the investigation would be on a competitive service and not a competitive rate basis. Three sen-ators-at-large, Larry Bub, Pat Mc-Griff, and Chet Carter were appointed to the committee, with Bub as chairman.
The yeU leading situation was straightened out with the approval of Bill Winston. Winston, an assistant last year, replaces Lee Ler-ner. who was elected to the position but left school.
GEORGE’S CARETAKER Standing committees appointed were Rules, with Milt Dobkin, chairman, Don Robertson, and Lenny Karpel; All-University Forum, Betty Ann Smith, chairman. All-University Forum committee is appointed by the chairman of that committee with the approval of the Senate. Davis heads the Finance committee, and two other members will be elected by the Senate later.
ASSC committee chairmen are Ed Vierhielig, Student Union; Tom Perry, Orientation; Bob McCly-monds, Greater University; Bill Mc-Gurty, Election commissioner; Carl Almquist, Trojan, Chest; and Bill Montieth, University Recreation Association.
George Tirebiter was assured of a caretaker when Hugh Greenup volunteered for the job and was given the assignment temporarily.
Gridmen Supervise Parking
Although drivers may see some foctball formations on the Science parking lot, they can be assured that the team is still holding practice on Bovard field. Six players have been given the job of bringing a semblance of order to the present congestion by acting as lot attendants.
Mr. Ernest E. Everman, head of the office of Operations and Maintenance of the university, announced yesterday that he had hired a sextet of Trojan mole-skinners to run the lot from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., five days a week. All six men will work during the rush hour from seven to eight in the morning, and then two men will be on the lot each following hour ’till noon, when the fuU squad will return for an hour.
The attendants may hot always be football players, however, because athletes from other sports have signed the waiting list as alternates. The prevailing wage is 65 cents an hour, and it is paid out of the university’s maintenance allotment.
When the parking situation on the Science lot was at its worst last semester, the Independent council organized a system for remedying the confusion. Members of the councU marked white lines on the ground and guided drivers to the stalls. The lot will accommodate 350 cars when it is properly filled, and parkers have a chance to get out clear aisles once the system is in operation.
Ray Jackson, who planned the
parking system last year with Jack Shaffer in the Independent council, has prescribed the following rules for quick and easy parking:
1. Enter only the aisles that are marked off.
2. Park as close to the next cars on either side as possible, and in the same angle to the boards as they do.
3. Do not enter the lot without the attendant’s permission. Then park where he asks you to.
4. Do not park in the aisles at any time.
5. If you get to school before the lot opens, try to park in the street.
6. Park diagonally within the white lines, not perpendicular to the boards.

REFRESHMENTS AT 7 The cider and doughnut department will set up shop at 7 in the Student Union. The program, starting at 7:30, will cover as many new students’ problems as possible, Perry stated. Dr. Zech will officially welcome the students to Troy and will offer practical suggestions on university/ life. “We want the freshman coming to SC to get a good start,’’ said Dr. Zech, “and we want to help him keep a clean record during his stay here. My door is always open to any student in an attempt to further that aim. “I will emphasize the fact that LEONARD JOHNSON . . . battle cry Petitions Open For Non-Orgs “More representation for independents!” has been a battlecry in campus politics for many years, and the formation of the Independent council affords all non-Greek students representation in the student government. Petitions for those who want to join the council are available in 235 Student Union and will have to be turned in by 4 p.m. next Wednesday. Leonard Johnson, independent representative in the student senate and head of the council, has said that the membership of the council will be enlarged from the 15 in last year’s group to an as yet undetermined number. With a larger council, non-organized students may take a wider interest and participate more in student activities this year, Johnson said yesterday. The organization is concerned with coordinating independent activities and social events. After the petitions have been reviewed, the council will be formed and a definite meeting time and place will be established. Heretofore, the council met once a week. First Grid Rally Set For Tomorrow Noon Timbers in Bovard auditorium are i rally to get the season started due to shake tomorrow when the season's first pregame rally explodes at noon. Competent fuse lighters in the form of Tommy Walker and the SC football band, Yell King Jack McKee and his boys, radio disc jockey Jim Hawthorne, and Ike Carpenter making the ivories jump will supply the spark to Trojan spirit. George Tirebiter has given his personal promise to organize all canine rooters present. Listeners to “Hogan” Hawthorne’s zany spiel over KECA every night at 10:30 may have an inkling of what to expect from him when he appears on the Bovard stage. Hawthorne’s home-town Chamber of Fraternities and sororities are requested to dispense with the usual noon lunch hour on Friday in order that members may attend the rally in Bovard auditorium at 12. Commerce in Victor, Colo, has been quick to state that the high altitude of the Rocky Mountain areas is not injurious to gray matter. To aid the straining vocal chords of rabid rooters, Bob Rousso, chairman of the rally committee, has promised each and every person who carries two lungs and a will to use them through the Bovard portals tomorrow noon a shiny new megaphone plus songsheet. He urged all students to attend the with a bang. During the program, members of the SC coaching staff and the varsity football team will be introduced to the audience. The Utes will offer their own contribution to the day's rah-rah stuff when the University of Utah band arrives on campus at 2 p.m. to serenade the hoarse rooters who stagger out of Bovard. KAY STARR .. . offers talents university social life is very important. We want each man to join at least one extra-curricular activity.” ALL MEN INVITED Davis wiU discuss general activities on the campus, and Thomas will explain campus organizations and their activities. Yell King Jack McKee will be there with his assistants to lead some yells and explain seating and rooting procedure at games. “All men students are invited to attend the smoker,” said Perry, “but we especially urge freshmen and transfers to be there. “The program is the result of This is the first of ten pregame j careful planning, and we feel that it rallys which are scheduled for the I will offer substantial and practical season. I help to new Trojans.” ASSC Senate Ratifies Heads Of Committees Committee appointment and reports marked the first ASSC Senate meeting last night. Convening in a fourth floor Student Union classroom because of redecoration of the regular Senate chambers, the body took steps to start student government rolling. Helen Hall Moreland, dean of women, addressed the Senate and urged the members to take the responsibilities involved in student government. “My job is to help you get more student government and responsibility,” Dean Moreland said. “Future leadership, I am convinced, will come from American universities and very possibly from SC.” INVESTIGATE TRAINS ASSC President John Davis, as was expected, appointed a committee to investigate the transportation service for the Stanford football trip. Pointing out that in the past the trains carrying SC students north had been late and unsanitary, Davis said the investigation would be on a competitive service and not a competitive rate basis. Three sen-ators-at-large, Larry Bub, Pat Mc-Griff, and Chet Carter were appointed to the committee, with Bub as chairman. The yeU leading situation was straightened out with the approval of Bill Winston. Winston, an assistant last year, replaces Lee Ler-ner. who was elected to the position but left school. GEORGE’S CARETAKER Standing committees appointed were Rules, with Milt Dobkin, chairman, Don Robertson, and Lenny Karpel; All-University Forum, Betty Ann Smith, chairman. All-University Forum committee is appointed by the chairman of that committee with the approval of the Senate. Davis heads the Finance committee, and two other members will be elected by the Senate later. ASSC committee chairmen are Ed Vierhielig, Student Union; Tom Perry, Orientation; Bob McCly-monds, Greater University; Bill Mc-Gurty, Election commissioner; Carl Almquist, Trojan, Chest; and Bill Montieth, University Recreation Association. George Tirebiter was assured of a caretaker when Hugh Greenup volunteered for the job and was given the assignment temporarily. Gridmen Supervise Parking Although drivers may see some foctball formations on the Science parking lot, they can be assured that the team is still holding practice on Bovard field. Six players have been given the job of bringing a semblance of order to the present congestion by acting as lot attendants. Mr. Ernest E. Everman, head of the office of Operations and Maintenance of the university, announced yesterday that he had hired a sextet of Trojan mole-skinners to run the lot from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., five days a week. All six men will work during the rush hour from seven to eight in the morning, and then two men will be on the lot each following hour ’till noon, when the fuU squad will return for an hour. The attendants may hot always be football players, however, because athletes from other sports have signed the waiting list as alternates. The prevailing wage is 65 cents an hour, and it is paid out of the university’s maintenance allotment. When the parking situation on the Science lot was at its worst last semester, the Independent council organized a system for remedying the confusion. Members of the councU marked white lines on the ground and guided drivers to the stalls. The lot will accommodate 350 cars when it is properly filled, and parkers have a chance to get out clear aisles once the system is in operation. Ray Jackson, who planned the parking system last year with Jack Shaffer in the Independent council, has prescribed the following rules for quick and easy parking: 1. Enter only the aisles that are marked off. 2. Park as close to the next cars on either side as possible, and in the same angle to the boards as they do. 3. Do not enter the lot without the attendant’s permission. Then park where he asks you to. 4. Do not park in the aisles at any time. 5. If you get to school before the lot opens, try to park in the street. 6. Park diagonally within the white lines, not perpendicular to the boards. |
