Fraternity Men to Sprint In First Annual IFC Relays
The first IFC Relays will be held on the Row tonight from 6 to 7:30, followed by a street dance.
Chairman Bill Dahlman said yesterday that 20 of USC's 29 fraternities had entered six-man teams in the series of mile medley relays.
Star Shines In Dull Plot At Stop Gap
By ROGER GRACE
Allison Price starred last night in the drama department's production of “Good Woman of Setzuan.” the story of a prostitute who sought to be “good'’ with the odds against her—and failed.
The Stop Gap production met with a similar fate, despite Miss Price's priceless performance.
The play dragged its way through the improbable situations concocted by author Bertolt Brecht and contained just enough childish finish ing touches to qualify as a flop.
Grasps Part
The pulchritudinous starlet held the production together with her radiance and apparent grasp for the part.
Male lead Gordon Hoban and minor characters Swoo-sie Kurtz and David Anderle gave particularly polished performances.
Yet the story of a prostitute, reformed through the help of three gods and who dresses up in men's clothing whenever she feels the need to stop “being good", might well be found in a book of Grimm's Fairy Tales were it not for her profession.
Projecting appropriate proverbs on a screen dropped in the middle of the stage following each act. and flashing “symbolic pictures" every now and then to help get the message across added considerably to the ridiculousness of the entire affair.
Gag Pajamas
“The relays will be run in heats, with four teams participating in each heat,” Dahlman explained. “Winners will be decided on the top four times, so each team will race just once.”
The street dance will be held from 8 to 10. Awards will be given at that time, Dahlman noted.
“We’ll have the Fireballs and a surprise attraction at the dance,” he said.
The first leg of the relay will be a 220 from the Kappa Alpha House to Sigma Nu. The second will be a 440 from Sigma Nu to Tau Epsilon Phi. The third leg will be a 220 from TEP to KA. The fourth runner will also sprint a 220 from KA to Sigma Nu. The fifth and sixth men will go from Sigma Nu to TEP and from TEP to KA.
Mandatory Meeting
Dahlman remined all fra temities that there will be a mandatory meeting at 3:30 today at the KA house for representatives from all teams.
“There’s nothing to worry about concerning the race,’ Dahlman told interested run ners yesterday, “if you’ve paid your health insurance.”
Dahlman said the relays were open to all pledges and actives, except trackmen or those who have worked out with the track squad.
No Bicycles “There will be no bicycles allowed either,” he stipulated.
Money for the event was raised through Project View, a test psychological experiment that fraternity pledges participated in last fall, receiving $1 each for their effort. The money went to pay for the event.
Judges will be Assistant Dean of Students Tom Hull, Daily Trojan Editor Hal Drake and Daily Trojan Sports Editor Jerry Wilcox.
The three officials will be
track coach Vern Wolfe, assistant athletic publicist Bing Cherrie and Assistant Commons Director Ron Turnbull.
Timers for the relays will include ex-varsity trackman Dick Tomlinson and trackmen Kevin Hogan, Rex Cawley, Dick Cortese and Ted Doll.

Disagreement In Blue Key
A smouldering disagreement among members of Blue Key over selection of new members halted yesterday ~s the group voted to tap 10 additional members.
The members, apparently patching up an argument that broke out following the group’s April 24 meeting, added the new tappees to 17 tapped last week. Names will be announced at the AMS assembly tomorrow night.
Following last week’s meeting, eight members protested actions of a selection board that had rejected several nominees for membership without recourse to a major ity vote of members.
The group yesterday considered men who had been rejected by the four-man selection committee and a vote of the majority at the April 24 meeting.
Detail Talks
Only discussion over details arose during the hour-and-25-minute meeting.
The biggest discussion came when members suggested that President Dann Moss not count abstentions as among the majority voting for members.
They said a majority of the present membership should have to vote for a nominee so that only the most highly qualified will be selected.
Moss, however, said according to Robert’s Rules of Order he was using correct procedure and continued using the method.
Vote Again
However the members chose at a meeting last Thursday to vote on nominees that had been rejected earlier after a verbal battle that raged for nearly an hour and 20 minutes.
Dr. Robert F. Craig, Blue Key adviser, read 1959 bylaws that he had gotten from Dr. Totten J. Anderson, former faculty adviser.
The by-laws described ‘•he duties of the selections committee as including the right to make recommendations on nominees for membership.
Several of the dissident members maintained that recommended” didn’t mean that the committee could reject potential members, arguing that the membership should have the right to approve or disapprove the committee's decision.
Moss said the committee had felt it was its duty to
GETS $50,000 GRANT
Th.e School of Medicine has received a $50,000 gift for heart research, Dr. Clayton G. Loosli, dean of the School of Medicine, announced yesterday.
Forwarded through the Los Angeles County Heart Association, the contribution came from the Donate Once Club of employes at North American Aviation Inc.
The money will help support heart research at USC, Dr. Loosli said. The director of the research is Dr. David H. Blankenhorn, associate professor of medicine.
“Dr. Blankenhorn applied for a grant,” Dr. Loosli explained. “This represents support of his general program. He will be able to enlarge the program now to include new staff members, while taking in larger dimensions. He is quite well-known in heart research.”
President Topping and Dr. Loosli received the gift yesterday from H. F. Coleman, secretary- treasurer of the North American Employes Club.
A referendum to urge suspension of the campus Communist speaker ban will be circulated by the Trojan Democratic Club (TDC), newly elected President Glen Mowrer said yesterday.
The move has already been approved by Dean of

Two-Ton Trunker' To Train for Race
By JIM PERRY
If someone told you there was a shortage of large elephants in California, it’s doubtful that you’d worry much about it.
Unless you were in Friday’s second annual Intercollegiate Elephant Race, that is.
“It’s simply the law of sup ply and demand,” Sigma Alpha Mu's Larry Harvey notes. “There are only a few big elephants in California, and it would have cost us $3,000 to ship one from Texas.”

Dr. Frank C. Baxter, emeritus professor of English, will be the keynote speaker at the assembly. He will also present the Order of the Palm to the outstanding senior man.
Awards will also be given to the outstanding athletes in 12 different sports, to the outstanding athletes of the sophomore and freshman classes and to the athlete with the highest grade-point average.
The Jacob Gimbil Award will be presented to the athlete who is judged to have the best attitude.
The fraternity with the highest grade-point average and the most outstanding service organization also will be cited.

The other, Allen Baker, will probably ride their entry, two-ton Margie, in Friday’s elephant race. Margie was finally acquired from Nature’s Haven Wild Animal Farm at a cost of $250. That doesn’t include insurance, which had to be taken out on her.
“If we hurt the elephant, it’ll cost us $10,000," Baker explained.
The Sammies will be selling $1 tickets to the race through Thursday in front of the Student Union. The Orange State College-sponsored affair will be held Friday afternoon at Los Alami-tos Race Track.

Harvey was more optimistic.
“The only thing Margie can’t do is fly,” he maintained.
Harvey summed up the qualities the Sammies searched for, and found, in Margie.
“There is a certain personality an elephant must have to enter the race.” he said. “The elephant must have a good disposition. It must be happy-go-lucky, and not too old. because they get grouchy with age.”
