Various southern California schools will represent the states at the Model convention. Since SC will represent California, and the California primary has not yet been held, the delegation is free to support any candidate it pleases.

Carnival Ducats To Go on Sale
More than 2000 tickets are on sale for the YW “Global Gayety” carnival being held Friday night in the YW. Tickets may be purchased at the YW during the week or at the carnival entrance.
The cost of 25* cents per ticket will entitle the purchaser admission to the booths and dancing.
Trophies, donated by Hollywood Rogue Sportswear, for the most humorous and the most beautiful booths will be given for the first time this year at the carnival, which will last from 6:30 to li.
Trophy Award
One trophy, that for the most appropriate booth, has been abolished because of the theme of the booths this year. All booths will have an international setting which would make judging too difficult.
This year {he booths will be judged by Mrs. Bernard L. Hyink, Dr. Totten J. Anderson, professor of political science, and Ken Shanks, IFC coordinator.
Contrary to misinformation received by the DT from the YWCA and published in Friday’s issue, all of the trophies are perpetually rotating.
Last year the YW sold about 1000 tickets and made a profit, of $300 which goes into the YW fund.

Ann Vierhus Wins Disputed Miss T Title
A last-minute whirlwind of 336 write-in ballots carried cast-bound Ann Vierhus, Daily Trojan news editor, to victory as Miss Trojanality Friday, despite opposition voiced by Newman club. Theta Chi Harry Merrill walked away with the Mr. T tag with 703 votes.
Newman club members protested Miss Vierlftis’ victory on grounds thatfc she was a sorority woman, a member otf Kappa Alpha Theta, and that they had understood sorority women could not be entered in the Miss T vote.
Panhellenic council ruled last semester that sororities could not enter their members in the Miss T contest, but since Miss Vierhus was entered and financially backed entirely by the Daily Trojan staff, Trojanality contest chairman John Witt decided that Miss Vierhus was the winner, fair and square.
Newman clubs’ entry Joan Myers came in second with 169 votes.
Plunking down $40 just before the polls closed at noon, Don Rein-holdt assured victory for fraternity brother Merrill, and helped bring the contest contribution to the Trojan Chest drive to the $221.59 total.
Mr. and Miss Trojanality received their trophies at the Varsity show’s last performance Friday night. Miss Vierhus, who is wearing a cast as a result of a broken vertebrae received in an automobile accident, wore a loose fitting, maternity-type dress as she appeared on the Bovard stage for her award.
Others in the Mr. Trojanality voting were George Gottesman, 152; Dick Kappes, 138; Tom Lovrich, 129; Glenn Berry, 118; Don DuBose, 115; Herb MacGregor, 53; Bob Flandrick, 47; Don Underwood, 22; Jack Owen, 13; Wallace (write-in), 20; Vince Dundee, 9; Warren Ettinger, 8; Ken Shanks, 8; Chuck Kelly, 7; Jack Tillar, 7; Fred Neil (write-in), 5; Terry Gordon (write-in), 5; Jack Davis, 4; Pat Canna-mela (write-in), 3; Parry O'Brien, 3; Dick Van Laanen, 3; Al Carmichael, 2; and Ken Kruger, 1.

SC Financial Woes Discussed by Fagg
Problems of the university in the face of rising prices were discussed by President Fred D. Fagg Jr. yesterday before a meeting of the SC chapter of the American Association of University Professors.
Commenting that half of the universities over the country are presently operating in the red, Dr. Fagg requested that everyone connected with SC economize so that the reserve fund will not have to be drawn upon to meet expenses.
Tough Years Ahead “I can see two very tough years ahead," Dr. Fagg said, “and the reserve fund should be preserved for a more rainy day than we are having now.”
Although he is encouraged by the fact that there are 5200 nonveteran men now enrolled at SC, while there were only 5000 men students before World War II, Dr. Fagg expects a decrease in total enrollment to around 7500 men in several years.
T.he bright side of the picture, according to Dr. Fagg, is the increase in popularity of SC among well-known high schools and preparatory institutions throughout the
I country as well as increased alumni
support through endowments.
Of direct concern to the univer* / •
sity, he said, is the bill before the House of Representatives urging attendance of Korean veterans in state institutions. The bill would give veterans $110 monthly for personal expenses and tuition, which would have an adverse effect on private universities.
Dr. Fagg also commented on the recent visit of the state Senate Un-American Activities committee to SC, at which time several other Southland college representatives were on hand.
Faculty Investigated “We have never taken on faculty members unless their qualifications have been looked into thoroughly,” he said. “We are as interested In keeping Communist influence out of the university and in preserving freedom as the committee is.”
Dr. Fagg also announced that alumnus Dr. Harold J. Stonier, executive manager of the American Bankers association, scheduled as guest speaker on Alumni day,May 17. will be unable to attend because of the illness of his wife.
