Medicos Arrange Free Sugar Tests
j JStudents and faculty are be-jing checked this week for unknown or potential diabetes in a free detection drive at the ! student health center. Dr. Paul |0. Greeley, director of the health center, said yesterday.
Persons wishing to be checked for diabetes may pick up a packet of sugar at the health center prior ro the day they wish to take the test.
I Participants should take the sugar with breakfast and return to the heaitn center exactly two hours later for tests.

1 Dr. Greeley urged people who have had diabetes in their family history to undergo the tests because he said the disease is often transmitted through heredity.
“If diabetes goes unnoticed and uncontrolled.” Dr. Greeley warned, “one’s susceptibility to various infections increases, and more etxensive diseases may result. In advanced cases the victim may even lapse into
“Early cases of diabetes often have no visible signs of danger and even the more advanced cases give very little warning, j “Increased thirst, pains in the legs, excessive urination and loss of weight are some of the more obvious signs in ad vanced cases,” Dr. Greeley explained.
“We hope that the students and faculty will take advantage of these free tests and ¡that some potential cases may be uncovered.” Dr. Greeley said.
Ed Williams, a lab technician. said persons can pick up their sugar from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. any day this week. Th* tests will be held daily until Friday.
Williams said those people with schedule difficulties mav make individual arrangements with him at the health center. “The results of the tests ma;’ be taken to family doctors for further action or information,” he said.

"For this reason, it is very important to detect diabetes early,” Dr. Greeley explainer).
Littie Time
He said if the disease is discovered early enough, serious ■ complications can be prevented and in many instances the disease actually can be cured | through the temporary use of insulin and proper diet control.
The actual testing only takes five or ten minutes. "These few minutes may prevent years ;of future trouble." Dr. Greeli«» said.
He explained thi* the health center tests are very thorough because of their correlation between blood and i.rine tests, which is essential in netectina jd:abetes.

The war of the telegram.- is on between USC and Alabama.)
And judging the first engagement from a strictly non-partisan. unbiased point of view, it looks as if the Trojans completely overwhelmed the Crimson Tide.
The conflict started this week when highly regarded United' Press International named the Trojans No. 1 in the nation in their football poll, and the! much less respected Associated Press poll tabbed the Crimson Tide for top honors.
So. obviously worried. Alabama's Spirit Committee of the Student Government Associa-j *
tion dispatched this bland telegram yesterday:
“Roll Number One Tide.” ASSC President Bart Lerldel. who received the telegram, immediately called a conference of his chief military advisers, and they finally came up with a brilliant, almost poetic reply that would have been worthy cf Winston Churchill. The telegram to Alabama read:
"Hear the Tide Is Rolling Out. Were Laughing All the Way to the Rose fa ml ”
It is to be assumed that upon receipt cf the telegram, the Southerners immediately obtained a copy of "A Stillness at Appomattox” to see how Lee surrendered to Grant.

THE
BACK!
THUNDERING HERD IS
By ALLAN MALAMUD
The Thundering Herd is back—in the same startling way that it first appeared on the Coliseum turf 30 years ago.
A team which was un-ranked in the national wire service polls when the season began is suddenly being compared to the only USC eleven to go undefeated and untied through a full schedule.
They didn’t have any ratings back in 1932. but the Trojans certainly would not have been ranked in any top 10 that year, either.
At least when the season began.
Starting with only three lettermen frcm the previous fall’s 10-1 club, Howard Jones molded that trio and an army of newcomers into a unit which allowed only two touchdowns the entire year.
Thirty years later, John
McKay has done the same kind of job with a team which had 16 lettermen—but they were returning from a 4-5-1 squad.
Success occurred early, though. A 14-7 victory over Duke convinced a national television audience that the West Coast uould have at least one respectable football team.
Still, it took a 14-0 victory over powerful Washington to finally bring the Trojans back into the national spotlight which they hadn’t enjoyed since the first eight games of 1959.
Another impressive victory—over Stanford—and USC vaulted into the No. 1 spot in the national ratings for the first time in history.
Rave notices weren’t evident in the first few games of 1932, either.
Ironically, it was another win over Washington —this time, 9-6—that cinched the Pacific Coast Conference title and aweke the nation to another power in the West.
The ’32 and ’62 teams are similar in another respect—success came at a crucial time.
The original Thundering Herd brought the first capacity crowds to a football game in what then was called Olympic Stadium—now dubbed the Coliseum.
This year’s team is beginning to bring back the following in an era when professional sports have threatened to overrun the collegians in Los Angeles.
With the direct opposition—the pro Rams— suffering a losing year, the Trojans have already outdrawn them in Satur-day-Sunday combat for the first time in years.
And the prospect is even better with an average of more than 60,000 fans expected for the remaining games with Navy, UCLA and Notre Dame.
It won’t be a surprise if the crowds stay with the Trojans in the future ,either.
In the color combination—red, gold and green —that McKay designates his first three units, only seven men are seniors.
That means a huge crop of returning lettermen will be around next season with an added year of experience to count upon.
The Thundering Herd may stick around for a few years.
