At most, there is only one more day to suffer through it. But better to suffer through the campaign than to suffer an accident and/ or death. We have tried to impress upon each one the advantages of driving safely and carefully during the Holidays. We have tried to show the light as well as the sordid side of this driving business. It has been a week-long campaign aimed strictly at Trojan drivers to show each other how to return to campus in one piece. We have tried to do our part. Now it is up to the drivers. It is up to them to think of all the things we have said when they get behind the wheel, and to practice safe and courteous driving. They owe themselves that much. Before the long, and perhaps bloody, vacation begins, we wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a H?.ppy New Y’ear. But remember: DON’T GET PUT BELOW, TROJANS: DRIVE SAFELY! Student Union Heads To View Co-op Chances A motion that the Student Union committee investigate the possibility of establishing a Student Purchasing cooperative was accepted unanimously by the Senate at its last meeting Wednesday night. The Co-op, suggested by Senator Bob Donaldson, student president of the School of Education, would give all students the opportunity of purchasing any and all articles, ex- Committees Note Padgett Hints Future Purge ASSC President Bob Padgett yesterday hinted that certain unnamed Senate committeemen will get the axe next semester if they don't snap out of the doldrums soon. “I will exercise my perogative if I do not feel that committees or committee members are functioning adequately for purposes for which they were created,” he said. The ASSC constitution gives the ASSC president power to appoint or remove members of committees with Senate approval. Padgett said that certain committees have been functioning below expected efficiency, but he hoped that by next semester he will see better results. cept food, from city merchants at great reductions. “Tlie California Student Teachers association already has such a plan for their members.” Donaldson said. “They get clothing, jewelry. and a host of other things at wholesale prices.” “A student purchasing group here at SC would favorably effect profits fcr merchants through increased sales. The student, in turn, would profit through decreased prices,” Donaldson added. Simplicity itself would keynote the plan of operation. Student ID cards, certifying regular attendance status, would be honored by the member stores. Trojans Don’t firt Psit Below MUTE SAFELY Registrar Lists Signup Info Class Schedules Available Jan. 10 Instead of Jan. 5 Students were urged yesterday by P. J. Peterson, assistant registrar, to complete registration on their assigned day in order to avoid rush and confusion which would result in ! the piling up of a large group on one day. Pre-registration, he reminded students, is only lor those Wiho started to school this fall. It* will run from Jan. 16 to 25. Schedule of classes will be out on I Jan. 10 instead of the announced ' date of Jan. 5. IN WOMEN’S GYM Pre-registration as in previous semesters will be held in the women’s gym. But Peterson emphasised the student must have a permit to register.

Knowland, R., Calif., told a rain-dampened audience in Hancock auditorium yesterday that if China falls to the Communists there will be more power wielded by one nation than there ever was when Hitler was at the height of his power. The senator, who recently returned frcm a tour of the Far East, said that “If all of China goes it will only be a question of time till all of southeast Asia goes Communist, and if this happens, it is not unlikely that Indian and Pakistan will follow.” Knowland called Formosa a wedge in the Communist armor which, if it fell, would move our line of defense back to the Pacific coast. “I don't believe that we should take over Formosa, but it would be very bad if it fell to the Communists. The only alternative is for the Chinese people to defend it themselves, and I think they can defend it with proper aid and supervision,” he said. Speaking of British and United States recognition of a Communist government in the future, Knowland said it would give them a ueen paper. From the 40 finalists one will be named “Mirror Queen’’ and be given a trip to Paris by way of Mexico City and Havana. Mirror readers will make their choice next week. But lovely Joyce Kirby says she won’t be in it. ’Must be the home type. Library Schedule For Holiday Listed The University library will be open during Christmas vacation on the following days: from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Dec. 19-22, Dec. 27-29, Jan. 3-4. On Dec. 23 and Dec. 30 it 'will be open from 8 a.m. to 12 noon. cloak of respectability and a seat in the UN, open every embassy and consulate to espionage, and add another nation that will have its hand in forming the final Japanese peace treaty. Knowland answered h i s own question as to what could be done to help the Chinese by saying that President Truman should unfreeze $75,000,000 in far material for the Nationalists as well as $94,000,000 in Marshall plan money. This aid, he said, should be placed under the supervision of (Jen. Albert Wede-meyer. After this is done, according to Knowland, the United States should follow the same policy that it has successfully used in Greece and Turkey. “We should add a couple of car- , riers to a Pacific task force and i have them visit ports in Formosa and Japan,” he said. “I am personally convinced that we have stood agamst Communism in Europe and we have done some good. But we have cringed at Communism in the Far East. Appeasement is surrender on the installment plan.” Getting a bit dramatic, the broad shouldered senator from California raised his deep voice and referred to the Angus Ward incident by saying: “I say to you as a senator of the United States that the only reason the American consul general of Mukden is on his way to Korea now is because we paid extortion ASSC Notice __*;ourxesy L..A.

Bob Padgett ASSC President Scholars Gag As Humor Mag Hits Market * LWM—the Living Wampus Memorial drive—will get underway today. As a special inducement for students to contribute to the memorial fund, a copy of the December Wampus will be given to each person who contributes a quarter to the cause, officials of the campus humor magazine said yesterday. Meanwhilfe, an announcement Issued from the office of the ASSC treasurer, one of the groups participating in the campaign, stated that tonight will be Bank Night. “A11 contributions received tonight will go directly to the bank.” the announcement indicated. The Living Wampus Memorial drive has as its goal the establishment of a fund which would provide rheumatism pills for the settlers in the hills. money to get >him out of China.” Knowland blamed the United States for issuing a “white paper” condemning Chiang Kai-Shek's government for lowering Nationalist morale. He expressed confidence that the Communists would not attempt to take Hong Kong away from the British, because it was to their advantage to have a “window" looking out on the non-Communist world. In a question and answer period that followed, Knowland was asked if Dean Acheson, secretary of state, had done a good job since he voted against his appointment. “In light of Mr. Acheson’s actions, I would vote again today as I voted once before,” he answered. Flood Victims Get Coed's $500 Prize An SC coed already has given away the $500 she will win on the radio Wednesday night at 6. Ruth Nicol, senior in English, from Guatemala, will be heard on the Groucho Marx, CBS radio program, “You Bet Your Life,” on KNX. She already has donated her winnings for the relief of victims of the recent flood in her native country. The program was recorded three weeks ago. Miss Nicol was asked to be on the program with another foreign student, Jan Dykstra, 2 Hollander who attends UCLA. They chose their question category and easily supplied the names of the president of Argentina, the dictator of Spain, and the prime minister of India. This gave them a chance at the $1000 question, “Who is the U. S. high commissioner for Germany?” They answered this easily, too. “I was so excited I flunked a quiz the next day,” Miss Nicol said. “No permit, no register.” he said. The permit and the registration material will be passed out two days before the student’s scheduled registration day. Adviser’s cards will be available Jan. 5 and may be picked up at Door B of Owens annex. Because of final exams, Peterson recommended that advisers should be seen between Jan. 5 and 14. At that time, advisement may be obtained and the adviser’s card may be signed. Advisers will probably not be available during finals, he said. ENGINEERING EXCEPTION Students in the School of Engineering are an exception to the adviser procedure. Adviser's cards may be picked -up at the regular time but the bulletin boards should be checked for complete information. R cards will be available in 207 PE. and verification, assessment of fees, and the veterans credit office will be in 210 PE. H cards are to be secured from the head of each department concerned. Payment of fees will be made in 102 Owens hall. ALPHABETICAL ORDER Pre-registration will follow an alphabetical order with special times for student who missed their regular day. Jan. 20 and 21 will be “any letter” days for graduates, seniors, and juniors, and Jan. 25 for sophomores, freshmen, and special students. Following is the schedule for preregistration: Graduates, seniors, and juniors M-O Monday, Jan. 16, 8:30 a.m. P-R S a.m. T-Z A-B a.m. C-E a.m. F-H a.m. I-L Thursday, Jan. 19, 1 Any letter, Jan. 20 and 21. Sophomores, freshmen and specials Monday, Jan. 23, All students intending to gallivant over the country for Christmas vacation are invited by Alpha Phi Omega, national service fraternity, to meet at noon today in the student lounge. The A Phi O's are trying to arrange mutual agreements between drivers with empty cars and students without autos who intend to go to the same places over the holiday. The service group has maintained a car pool in the past which served as a clearing-house arrangement for holiday travelers from SC. It has been successful in arranging nearly 100 share-the-ride deals per vacation, and the pow-wow in the lounge is proposed to expand this service. Spokesman for the group said that the bulletin board on the first floor of the Student was full of ads asking for rides and riders, but that many of the people who posted the ads were unable to get together with those who answered them. He said that the traveler’s convention in the lounge was planned to take care of these difficulties. Monday. Jan. 16, 1 p.m. Tuesday.

The highlight of the evening will be a talk given by Dr. John Porter who has recently returned from China. After the talk festivities will begin. There will be games, caroling, dancing, and refreshments from 8 to 12. Betty Chin, who will emcee the affair, requests that all attending the party bring a small gift to be raded among the party-goers. Carol' Wrong Christmas Title Some carols are not Christmas carols but some carols are Christmas carols so carols are carols. This is not a quote from Gertrude Stein, but is a statement of fact by Dr. Pauline Alderman, head of the department of music history and literature in the School of Music. “The word ‘carol’ dates back to Medieval times and earlier, and originally meant to dance in a ring,” she explained. “Although there are many carols with Christmas themes, several have been written about Easter and other seasons of the year.” Old English carols were brought to America by the Jamestown settlers and there are some original American carols. John Jacob Niles, the American folk singer, has traced several of these. ^ “Carols are defined in the Oxford Book of Carols as ‘songs with a religious impulse that are simple, hilarious, popular, and modern,’ ” Dr. Alderman concluded, ‘ remember that when you sing them.” Veterans Notice Trojans Don’t Oft Put Below DRIVE SAFELY SC Soprano to Sing On Standard Hour' Opera Workshop soprano Jean Fenn, who sang the role of Nancy in the SC production of Benjamin Britten’s “Albert Herring," will appear on “The Standard Hour” broadcast at 8:30 Sunday evening over KFI. She will sing the fourth move- | ment of Mahler’s Symphony No. 4 with the Los Angeles Symphony orchestra under the baton of Alfred Wallenstein. This will be Miss Fenn’s second appearance with the same orchestra, conductor, and composition. The first presentation by the performers was on Nov. 17. Miss Fenn is the only singer to be a winner in the Atwater Kent auditions and also to be awarded a Hollywood Bowl scholarship. A student of Homer Samuels and Florence Holtzman, she sang the Countess role in Mozart’s “The Marriage of Figaro” when it was produced by the Guild Opera company in March. Miss Fenn has also sung in Hollywood Bowl presentations of “La Traviata” and “Madame Butterfly.” Public Law 16, or Rehab students, are asked to follow the following VA instructions: 1.
