Sororities Gird For Grid Glory
With proceeds of the contest going to the foreign student fund, plans are under way for the football game between the Pi Beta Phi and Kappa Alpha Theta sororities this Friday at 2:30 p.m. on Bovard field in Troy's first annual Bloomer Bowl game.
Admission will be 25 cents, with the game being played according to NCAA regulations. The Pi Phis and Thetas will be sponsored by members of Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Kappa Alpha fraternities, respectively. Both sororities will be attired in helmets and shoulder pads, wearing the colors of the fraternity they are representing.
Ted Tannehill. former Trojan football star, will act as referee. He will be assisted by other members of the current grid squad.
The game will be replete with rooting sect?ons, card stunts, and half-time activities. A pre-game rally is being planned for Friday noon before the game. A caravan of cars, carrying the members of the teams, will drive down University avenue and then proceed to 28th street.
A tropny, donated by the two fraternities, will be presented the night of the game at the all-uni-versity watermelon dig. The game is expected to become an annual event, and the trophy will be perpetual. Each year the proceeds from the contest will go to a different charity.

AIA to Hear Meet Minutes
I
I Arthur B. Gallion. dean of the College of Architecture, and Fred McDowell, senior architecture student. attended the 21st annual convention of the California Council of Architects last week. The convention was held at Yosemite national park.
McDowell, director of the SC chapter of the American Institute of Architects, will present an outline of the proceedings of the recent convention at a chapter meeting tonight.
“The SC chapter of AIA received its charter only last year.” McDowell said, “and it is very significant that we were invited to this convention.” The University of California was the only other school represented by a student.
A senior, McDowell plans to go into residence designing after his graduation this summer.
Repair Work Moves Ahead
Work pounded ahead on the three stone buildings on the comer of 37t.h place and Hoover street this week as workmen pressed to complete the repairs on schedule.
When completed, in about two weeks, these buildings will be occupied by the Graduate school and the Graduate School cf Religion, Elton D. Phillips, university business manager, announced Friday. These buildings are receiving a major reconditioning, Phillips said.
Repairs started with a new roof last month, and will include major redesigning of the floor plans and landscaping of the yards. Offices ior the deans of the two schools, classrooms, seminar rooms, and offices for the staffs, are being prepared.
Cost of the repair has been estimated at $15,000.
To conform with fire department legulations concerning the number and size of exits in assembly areas, several new doors had to be placed in the buildings.
The buildings will not be connected. but- they will constitute a unit. Phillips said.
Space formerly occupied by these two schools is now occupied by the office of the educational vice-president and department of development.
Dc veterans make better grades than non-veterans?
Even three years after the war it smacks sacrilege to consider investigating the negative possibilities cf this hackneyed question.
But when a local newspaper assured us for the umteenth time that, those weary years of beans-for-breakfast thrice a week had been a miraculous mental stimulant,. we were overcome with an urge to go snooping for facts.
ICONOCLAST Sure enough, up in the education library, one Robert H. Shaffer of Indiana university, in “School and Society,” May 13, 1948, came forth with several statements that confirmed our suspicions.
Basing his statements on records at Indiana university. Shaffer said. “Analysis behind most statements (of vets’ superior grade averages) usually revealed only slight differences between the two groups (vets and non-vets), based on honor-point ratios carried to three or four decimal places.”
VETERANS’ BEST Immediately after the war, our writer informs us, veterans’ grades were indeed noticeably superior to those of non-veterans. But that difference has decreased steadily.
This difference, he believes, was due to the simple factor of age, not to the maturing effects of beans and battle-smoke.
For the decreasing difference between the two groups there are several explanations. One, schools are now getting the graduates of the 52-20 club.
YOUTH GOES Probably more significant is the fact that veterans who are now entering college are younger than those who entered immediately after the war. so that the age difference between veterans and nonveterans is decreasing.
The startling fact is the 1946-47 survey of grades at Indiana university is . . . “non-veterans were found to exceed veterans of the same age in every case.”
The veterans' grade average was higher as a group, but only because it was pulled up by the superior grades of older veterans.
j What is needed most to make j ; civil rights programs succeed, she [ said, is to build up the community | spirit toward such a program. Leg- I i islation at the top must be sup- ' ported from below.
REFERS TO GROUPS She referred specifically to citizens organizations such as the Back of the Yards group in Cnicago : and the Kentucky Civil Rights committee.
“I have been accused of being a Communist, Fascist, and almost everything else for my stand on civil rights in Congress,’-' she said.
She made her strongest attack against those who “^.re so blinded by prejudice that they cannot regard an issue with an open mind.” “Communists approach foreign affairs so beclouded by prejudice they cannot see things clearly,” she said. “Followers of Henry Wallace approach politics with the •Russia is right’ attitude.”
EXPLAINS DISLIKE She explained her dislike for Communism because of its government from the top down.
“We do stupid things in our government, but that is no proof that the system is wrong,” she said, “it is merely because we frail humans fail to live up to the glorious opportunities we have.”
two civilians were killed and 23 j wounded, 10 seriously.

A tropny, donated by the two fraternities, will be presented the night of the game at the all-uni-versity watermelon dig. The game is expected to become an annual event, and the trophy will be perpetual. Each year the proceeds from the contest will go to a different charity. souls-’ with his externporaneous ser- j mon.

Gallion. dean of the College of Architecture, and Fred McDowell, senior architecture student. attended the 21st annual convention of the California Council of Architects last week. The convention was held at Yosemite national park. McDowell, director of the SC chapter of the American Institute of Architects, will present an outline of the proceedings of the recent convention at a chapter meeting tonight. “The SC chapter of AIA received its charter only last year.” McDowell said, “and it is very significant that we were invited to this convention.” The University of California was the only other school represented by a student. A senior, McDowell plans to go into residence designing after his graduation this summer. Repair Work Moves Ahead Work pounded ahead on the three stone buildings on the comer of 37t.h place and Hoover street this week as workmen pressed to complete the repairs on schedule. When completed, in about two weeks, these buildings will be occupied by the Graduate school and the Graduate School cf Religion, Elton D. Phillips, university business manager, announced Friday. These buildings are receiving a major reconditioning, Phillips said. Repairs started with a new roof last month, and will include major redesigning of the floor plans and landscaping of the yards. Offices ior the deans of the two schools, classrooms, seminar rooms, and offices for the staffs, are being prepared. Cost of the repair has been estimated at $15,000. To conform with fire department legulations concerning the number and size of exits in assembly areas, several new doors had to be placed in the buildings. The buildings will not be connected. but- they will constitute a unit. Phillips said. Space formerly occupied by these two schools is now occupied by the office of the educational vice-president and department of development. Dc veterans make better grades than non-veterans? Even three years after the war it smacks sacrilege to consider investigating the negative possibilities cf this hackneyed question. But when a local newspaper assured us for the umteenth time that, those weary years of beans-for-breakfast thrice a week had been a miraculous mental stimulant,. we were overcome with an urge to go snooping for facts. ICONOCLAST Sure enough, up in the education library, one Robert H. Shaffer of Indiana university, in “School and Society,” May 13, 1948, came forth with several statements that confirmed our suspicions. Basing his statements on records at Indiana university. Shaffer said. “Analysis behind most statements (of vets’ superior grade averages) usually revealed only slight differences between the two groups (vets and non-vets), based on honor-point ratios carried to three or four decimal places.” VETERANS’ BEST Immediately after the war, our writer informs us, veterans’ grades were indeed noticeably superior to those of non-veterans. But that difference has decreased steadily. This difference, he believes, was due to the simple factor of age, not to the maturing effects of beans and battle-smoke. For the decreasing difference between the two groups there are several explanations. One, schools are now getting the graduates of the 52-20 club. YOUTH GOES Probably more significant is the fact that veterans who are now entering college are younger than those who entered immediately after the war. so that the age difference between veterans and nonveterans is decreasing. The startling fact is the 1946-47 survey of grades at Indiana university is . . . “non-veterans were found to exceed veterans of the same age in every case.” The veterans' grade average was higher as a group, but only because it was pulled up by the superior grades of older veterans. j What is needed most to make j ; civil rights programs succeed, she [ said, is to build up the community spirit toward such a program. Leg- I i islation at the top must be sup- ' ported from below. REFERS TO GROUPS She referred specifically to citizens organizations such as the Back of the Yards group in Cnicago : and the Kentucky Civil Rights committee. “I have been accused of being a Communist, Fascist, and almost everything else for my stand on civil rights in Congress,’-' she said. She made her strongest attack against those who “^.re so blinded by prejudice that they cannot regard an issue with an open mind.” “Communists approach foreign affairs so beclouded by prejudice they cannot see things clearly,” she said. “Followers of Henry Wallace approach politics with the •Russia is right’ attitude.” EXPLAINS DISLIKE She explained her dislike for Communism because of its government from the top down. “We do stupid things in our government, but that is no proof that the system is wrong,” she said, “it is merely because we frail humans fail to live up to the glorious opportunities we have.” two civilians were killed and 23 j wounded, 10 seriously. Rose Bowl TV Rights Bought Exclusive television and broadcast rights on the Rose bowl gridiron classic have been purchased for three years by the Columbia Broadcasting system.

Hopes for Oil Peace Fade Two major oil companies today flatly rejected an offer by striking CIO oil refinery workers to end their month-old walkout on an agreement to submit wage differences to arbitration. Reese Taylor, president of Union Oil, released the text of a telegram which he sent to oil workers’ president, O. A. Knight, turning down the union offer. Strikers To Free Cargoes on Dock Striking CIO maritime workers here today offered to move .cargoes for individual shippers, wholesalers, and brokers at prestrike wages if shipowners have no objections. L. B. Thomas, speaking for a joint union committee, said the strikers “recognize that individual shippers cannot allow their cargoes to remain on the docks much longer without suffering serious financial difficulties.” Russ to Challenge UN on Berlin PARIS.
