Freshman Political Aspirants Begin Election Whirl Today
Freshman candidates will initiate thmselves into the wilds of college politics today when freshman election campaigning officially begins.
The class will hold their first election this Wednesday and Thursday in front of Doheny Library.
An Kay. elections commissioner, said that the election was originally slated for Oct. 5 and 6. It was postponed because of the ASSC Executive Cabinet's veto of the Senate-passed elections code.
Because of the late date in rescheduling the elections, the new politicians will have today and tomorrow to campaign for office.
Six freshmen are running for

Educators Inaugurate Special Teaching Plan
By DIANNE RILEY
A bold venture has become reality this fall as 49 highly selected graduate men and women began the semester in Los Angeles city shools under a new specialist-teacher program.
The experiment is a cooperative plan between USC's Graduate School, the School of Education and the Los Angeles city school system to prepare school specialists.
The two-year program is open to graduates in fields other than education. It is a unique attempt to prepare men and women who have been trained in other fields, such as science, history, drama and mathematics for specialist teaching careers.
Fellowships from $1.530 to 55.000 are awarded by the Ford Foundation to the trainees. During the two-year program, the students also receive credits toward their master's degrees in their chosen field.
The specialist-teacher program is attempting to break through the practice of school district pre-service training of their own teachers, reports Dr. Leonard Calvert, director of the program for USC.
Participants have been accepted by graduate departments on the basis of past performances. personal interviews and standardized examination. All have passed the personnel screening of the city schools.
The program received the close cooperation of other Western colleges. Dr. Calvert says. The schools supplied the names of 5.200 liberal arts graduates to which USC directed correspondence.
Cooperating colleges and universities included Arizona. Arizona State, Brigham Young. Denver. Nevada. N e w Mexico.
I New Mexico 'Vestern, San Diego, Utah and Westminister, i Of the 1.000 inquiries received 49 were accepted. Nineteen are ; USC graduates.
Seven are teaching English i or the language arts; eight teach ! social studies; two instruct arts and crafts; one teaches mathematics and one teaches science.
Lewis BeDell, Eleanor Carper, Margaret Davies. Thomas Gillespie, Robert Pedersen, Elvin Ricks and Armida Tellez are the English, journalism, speech and drama majors.
Noon Reading Feature
Kipling's Art
English department's program, “Books to Read Again,” will be given today when Dr. William B. Templeman, head of the department of English, reads from Rudyard Kipling’s “Poems.”
He will speak at 12:30 p.m. in 133 FH.
Speaking of the selections. Dr. Templeman said,“ Kipling’s stor-| ies are clear to the listener and more than ordinarily sensitive i in their presentation of human nature.”
“Millions in the English t speaking world have enjoyed i reading them again and again,” he added.
“Kipling’s poems are ones I like to read again because he j I is a great storyteller in his po- j etry,” Dr. Templeman added.
“He is also a poet giving mu- j sic as well as action and dramatic characterizations. His! poems are frequently told by different people in different oc cupations in life,” he said.
enthusiastic and eager to win this belated election,” he said.
Kay predicts that the campus grounds will see an array of posters and other colorful campaign materials.
He urged all freshmen to vote : in their first college election.
ID Card Required
“I hope that all freshmen will exercise this right to vote,” he said. “The only requirement is to be able to show a university photo ID card, guaranteeing that they are registered freshmen.”
For the puropse of this election, the freshman class is operating under a temporary election code.
The Executive Cabinet did not approve the election code passed by the ASSC Senate on Sept. 21, defeating the bill which would set up the rules for all student elections by a 5-2 margin.
The vote held-up the elections and forced a postponement of the elections until this Wednesday.
Voluntary Registration
The bill would have established a voluntary registration system for all voters in the ASSC elections.
Based on similar registration procedures in municipal, state and national elections, it would have denied voting privileges to anyone not registering.
A new code will be voted upon by the Cabinet in the near future and will be in operation for the next major elections held in the spring.
The temporary freshman code will be in effect until a new code is passed.
Good Turnout
Elections commissioner Kay said that he was very satisfied with the turnout. “It’s a good sign to see so many students trying for a ‘public’ office,” he said.
“It shows the new students are interested in student government,” he added.
The 15 freshmen who will run in the election may officially campaign on the campus during the next two days, but during the actual voting, they must remain a good distance away from the polling area.
The freshmen candidates will contact their constituency in the residence halls, before group meetings and on the row to win their support.

A pair of Georgia peaches received a Southern California version of “southern hospitality” last Friday when they visited the USC campus.
Jayne Malcom, a cheerleader for the University of Georgia Bulldogs, and Mariann Gordon, her traveling companion, spent most of the day touring the campus and meeting the students of Troy as guests of the ASSC.

Professor Visits Mexico To Study Unique History
Studying a subject in its own environment offers a distinct advantage — one that cannot be found on the USC campus. This is the conclusion of Dr. Donald C. Cutter, history professor.
During the summer. Dr. Cutter. along with Dr. Laudelino Moreno of the Spanish department and Dr. Manuel Servin of tlie history department, participated in a University College summer session offered at the National University of Mexico City.
Three courses were offered during the session. They were Archival Research Techniques. Human Geography of Latin America and History of Contemporary Mexico.
Approximately 26 graduate students, mainly USC history, international folations and Span-iih majors, attended the ses-
sions, held in the School of Anthropology and History.
Living conditions in Mexico City were good. Dr. Cutter says. He terms the capital an almost incomparable improvement over Tijuana. “Very nice apartments are available for approximately $25 per person a month, and i living conditions, especially food, are much cheaper than in the United States.” Dr. Cutter asserts.
The classes during the session were arranged to give the students a three-day weekend. This enabled them to take sightseeing tours and thus take greater advantage of the environment.
In 1955. the same type of session was offered. “It is so valuable.” Dr. Cutter feels, "that we plan to repeat this summer program frequently.”

Kennedy and Nixon will debate at USC today on foreign policy philosophies in the persons of Dr. Colin R. Lovell, associate professor of history, on the Democratic side, and Dr.
Carl Q. Christol, associate professor of political science, on the Republican side.
Sponsored by AWS. the debate will be held in 133 FH at 3:30 p.m.
Concerning GOP foreign policy, Nixon would conduct an aggressive. thoughtful, responsible policy so that the national interests of the U.S would be j preserved and protected ! throughout the entire globe, Dr.
Christol believes.
“Nixon would have at his elbow the advice of Vice President Lodge, whose spectacular are meaningless unless they are qualities for leadership have been observed in the United Nations for the past eight years,” he feels.
