Slogan Winner To Be Decided At Noon Today
Judges will pick one slogan out of a hundred today in deciding on the official commercial for homecoming week. The contest, which closed to entnes noon yesterday, thus goes into its final phase. The DT will name the winner ::n tomorrow’s issue.
After reading close to 1000 limericks, catchy lines, lines not so catchy, and other gimmicks, a panel of student judges reduced the number of slogans to an even 100 yesterday afternoon in a meeting unmarked by political squabbles.
Three faculty members and seven students will lunch together today and make the final selection.
One SC student put in his bid for 50-yard-line seats with this: ‘For a smile and a tear, visit SC this year.” Two others were: “We’il fight together in smog or weather,” and “Mess teepee for keepee.”
And then there was the Theta pledge who turned in this little gem:
“Little wooden injuns all in a row.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
There they go.”

Ford Workers Ask For Pay Boost As Strike Looms
DETRCIIT, Sept. 21—<Ui?)— The CIO United Auto Workers’ union is holding out for more than a 10-cent “welfare” package for 115,000 Ford Motor company workers, a UAW spokesman said today.
He said the steel formula would not give Ford workers the $100 retirement demanded by UAW President Walter P. Reuther.
But “real progress” was reported by Ford, and settlement close to the $100 figure was considered probable before a threatened strike Sept. 29.
Ford reportedly proposed a pension plan for its workers along the lines of the welfare package recommended in the steel dispute.
Under the program, Ford would set aside 83* cents to pay a pension to workers 68 years or older. It already contributes V,i cents toward an insurance plan which would bring the total to the 10-cent steel recommendation.
According to reports, Ford contends that the 10-cent package would give workers close to $100-a-month retirement when added to $35 or $40 average social security for which aged employees would be eligible.
The UAW disputed this. The spokesman said that the 8ai offer would amount to only $50 company pension according to union estimates. He said the average social security payment is $27 a month, making a total of $77 or short of Reuther’s peace demands.
Unity Party Resumes Membership Drive

The Navy game rally fits in with the purpose of the original Chi Phi watermelon digs. They were first given during the war to arouse the interest of Navy students in SC activities.

The drive for members was declared legal, he went on to point out. The question was the legality of the bulletin board which was a part of tr<e drive.
Frank O'Sullivan, Unity party chairman, cleared up the question concerning tne luture plans for signing up new members.
“We suspended our drive temporarily,” hs stated, “because we want to do the right thing and avoid any reason for ill-feeling between the factions here on campus.
“As soon as we discovered that there was some doubt about the legality of our display we stopped the drive,” he added.
Going on he pointed out that since the bulletin was not a campaign act, immediate steps will be taken to get permission from Dean Hyink’s office to display the bulletin board again today when the membership drive resumes.
O'Sullivan concurred with Colicigno that the mix up of Tuesday will in no way hurt the membership drive.

PHTL SHUMWAY Party Time
students and friends, Phyl Shum-way, Kappa Delt party chairman, said she hoped that attendance would surpass last year's number of 1300 guests.
In order to lure rooters to the house at 919 West 28th street, refreshments consisting of three layer cakes decorated in SC and Navy colors will be served along with sandwiches, cookies, punch, and cof fee. A combo will play for dancing in the Lanai room.
Bovard curtains will rise at 8:30 tonight cn the first Pacific Coast presentation in German of Goethe’s celebrated drama “Faust.” The well-known play will run for three nights.
Production of the original drama in German is SC’s contribution to the celebration of the*-5-
200th anniversary of the birth of Germany's man of letters, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.
Dr. Harold von Hofe, head of the German department and chairman of the Goethe bicentennial committee on campus, pointed out that the German department's production of “Faust” is not the opera, but the spoken drama from which Gounod took his operatic version. Goethe wrote the play in his youth and worked on it all of his life.
SELLS HIS SOUL
“Faust” is the story of a man who sells his soul to the devil.
Faust surrenders his soul to Mephisto and makes an agreement with him unmindful that a pact has been made between Mephisto and God. The pact states that Faust’s soul is to be forfeited to Mephisto if he can succeed in killing Faust's high ambitions and satisfy him with earthly pleasures.
After leading Faust through a series of adventures to satisfy him,
Mephisto learns that he has lost neither his ideals or ambitions.
The devil continues to entice him, but Faust knows that he will win over Mephisto by doing good for others.
One of the biggest jobs in producing the 19-scene play was designing and building the sets, according to Dr. von Hofe. Rolf Jacoby, formerly a director with UFA, pre-war German motion picture company, and also associated with the Max Reinhardt theater in Berlin, designed the 14 sets for the drama.
5-SECOND CHANGE Scenery can be changed in five seconds with the use of a special three-tier division of the stage. The auditorium will be darkened so that it will be unnecessary to close the curtain for scenery changes.
With the use of the 100-button control board, unusual lighting effects have been worked out by Mrs Evadna Blackburn, formerly of the SC drama department faculty.
The professional German cast will be headed by Norbert Schiller,
Laura McCann. Else Baeck Neft and Otto Waldis.
Producer-director of the produc tion is Walter Wicclair who has presented “Faust” in Germany Czechoslovakia, and Holland Assisting him is Rolf Jacoby, who has collaborated with Wicclair on three plays in Los Angeles and San Francisco.
Tickets for the production are on sale at the University ticket office for $1.20. $1.80. and $2.40.

Trovet List Increasing
“The list of new Trovet members is increasing rapidly,” said Ted Wiggins, membership chairman, yesterday. Although the number of new members hasn’t quite topped 100, a big turnout is still expected.
Because of the large number of vets struggling to join, Wiggins has visions of great things. Increased social functions and a bigger and better newsletter are just c, few of the proposed changes.
Old Trovet members were urged to reinstate themselves soon. A Trovet representative will be at the Student Union entrance from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. today and tomorrow to answer questions and to take 50-cent membership fees.
Members of the Jewish Faith will observe Monday, October 3, as the Day of Atonement. All students of the Jewish Faith who so desire may be excused from attending their classes on that day.

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.
Va., Sept. 21—(U.P>—John L. Lewis emerged angry and upset from a meeting with northern coal producers today and union and industry officials agreed privately there is little hope for early settlement of the three-day-old cool strike.
Lewis’ attitude quickly dispelled any .optimism that may have resulted from companion negotiations at nearby Bluefield, W. Va. It was reported there that all southern producers but one have complied with an ultimatum by the United Mine Workers to pay up back union welfare royalties.
Neither side would comment on what occurred at the Bluefield meeting except to say that joint talks will be resumed at 2 p.m tomorrow.
Lewis and his top negotiators were closeted with the northern producers here for more than two hours. He obviously was angry as he left and had a stock “no comment” for every question put to him.
The spokesmen on both sides told a reporter they were no nearer a solution than when the meetings started. The deadlock resulted in a “self-starting” strike last Monday which has idled some 480,000 soft and hard coal miners.
Sources close to the conferences said the operators were reluctant to talk new contract terms with Lewis until the steel dispute is settled.
Federal labor experts in Washington predicted that the government will maintain a “hands-off” attitude toward the coal dispute for at least another week.
At Bluefield, it was reported without confirmation that Pocahontas Fuel company, the largest of the companies which have refused to pay into the union fund, either had made its August payments or had agreed to do so.
The Island Creek Coal company was said to be adamant in its refusal to pay as long as there is no contract with the union. Lewis has tried repeatedly but without success to get the company to resume the payments.
It was the refusal of Island Creek and some other southern producers that touched off the nationwide strike last Monday. The walkout already has forced coal-hauling railroads to schedule layoffs for some 30,000 workers this week.
Meantime, violence flared at Clearfield, Pa., where 400 pickets forced non-union workers to leave the No. 3 mine of the Benson Lin-gle Coal company. The pickets turned off the fresh air fan at the mine, “roughed up” the workers and damaged the tipple.
Law of Diminishing Tempo ★ ★ ★ ★ Grid Musicians on TV
Tommy Walker and 11 of his grid musicians will diminish their tempo and come to a halt before KECA’s television camera at 8 this evening in the first of the Hoffman “Hi-Time” shows that will be presented during the football season.
The band will be a regular part of the production in which Jeff Cravath, head football coach; Cotton Warburton, former SC All-American; Kenny Washington, UCLA's contribution to the football hall of fame; and radioman Frank Bull will appear each Thursday.
Questions about coming coliseum

The program will be televised from the Long Beach Naval hospital tonight. Succeeding programs will originate from different high school and college auditoriums each week.
Walker is seeking a quartet of beauties with vocal experience to appear as a regular part of the show. He may be reached at the Instrumental Organizations building on Hoover street and Exposition boulevard.
