Can't Even Set Calendars by SC Chimes Now
The notorious clock on the tower high above Mudd hall set a new record for incorrectness Friday by being two months fast. Instead of the usual 10 minutes to 10 hours difference between Mudd hall time and PST, a new twist was added.
At 3:30 p.m. the melodious strains of “Silent Night” echoed throughout the campus from the clock tower. Everyone knows there are 63 days until Christmas. The Yuletide spirit is just a wee bit early.
Ducks Start Strong; Stumble in Stretch
by BOB ERBURU
Jeff Cravath must be considering today a plan to have his Trojans show up at Seattle Saturday in time for the second half of the Washington game, ONLY.
Cravath, who might have been even more successful as a preacher, once again delivered a stirring sermon to his charges at half time last Saturday and then they proceeded to do Dne of the most amazing turnabouts ever seen at the Coliseum.
—	* In fact, some fans might have*--*
thought they saw two separate games as the Trojans roared from far back to run Oregon into the ground in the stretch, 40-13.
KEEPER OF THE QUIPS Bob Hope and Les Brown watch owlishly as thrush Doris Day chirps a cheery cantata. Head men Hope will bring his entire radio crew to Bovard next Tuesday for (A) their regular broadcast, and (B) the purpose of getting Homecoming week off to a solid start. Admission will be free.
Slogan Unknown To 8 Out of 10
“Stinks” . . . ‘ Quite clever” . . . “Sensible” . . . “Too long” . . .
This was the kind of varied reaction of students to the DT's sidewalk reporters’ question, “’What do you think of this year's Homecoming slogan?”
The usual reply, however, was,
I “What IS this year’s slogan?" Eight of the 10 queried prefaced their answers with this question. They were informed that it is “Alumni Get j Big Hello While Injun Get Put Below.”
Chuck Wiggins, commerce junior, was different. He had definite ideas

Women Won't Talk
Ms1
squad
are beginning to believe that the vaunted vocal prowess of the female is vastly over-rated. This conclusion was reached when only five women competed for debate squad membership tryouts.
Women who displayed their gift of gab were Freda Weyen, who spoke on education: Betty Ann Smith, on education: Joanne Clare, on campus happenings; Anita Com-isaroff. on the nationalization of basic industries: and Margaret Grupe. on sororities and their value to the university.
Women may gatner points for their organizations by participating in intramural and intercollegiate speech activities. A year-long speech contest was recently started among the sororities, women’s dormitories. the YWCA, and other women's organizations on campus to stimulate interest in speech programs.
Other speech activities for which women may gather points from now until the end of the year include the interclass contest, the Bowen Cup extemporaneous contest, and the impromptu speech contest sponsored by Tau Kappa Alpha, honorary speech fraternity.

on the subject. He knew what it was, and h: didn’t like it.
“It stinks,” he said, between sips on a cherry coke. “It seems to me that out of 15.000 students somebody could submit a better slogan than that.”
“I like it,” countered Shirley Allen, graduate—of John Marshall high school. “It's quite clever, although it seems to be more appropriate for Stanford than SC.” Shirley is an education freshman.
Wesley Hughes, music senior, didn’t remember the slogan, but, when his mind was refreshed, he commented: .
“Yeah . . . well, it's kind of long, isn't it? But I guess it ties in with the game fairly well. Sure, it's pretty catchy.”
Robert Krause, engineering senior, paid the phrase a backhanded comment when he remarked:
“It makes more sense than last year’s. It means something,—on the surface, anyway.”
Sociology freshman Barbara Smith also offered the back of her hand when she answered with: “Pretty cute. Let’s hope it comes true. Last year's was better, though.”
Evaluating the slogan with a slightly less jaundiced eye was business senior Albert Swanson. He shifted in his soft student lounge chair and scratched the bottom of
Youth Groups Seek Students For City Jobs
Applications for volunteer positions with youth agencies in the city are available today through Wednesday at the YWCA,, 30th and Hoover streets, according to Barbara Butterfield, Social Responsibility commissioner.
‘“The purpose of our program is to find civic-minded students with the right backgrounds to fill the vacant staff jobs in numerous Community Chest-sponsored organizations,” she said.
Although work in the juvenile field is being stressed, other jobs are equally important in hospitals, clinics, veterans homes, and Travelers Aid centers.
Both men and women have expressed enthusiasm about the community service program. Several students have already made direct contact with the Volunteer bureau seeking immediate appointments.
Interviews for applicants will be held 9-4 p.m. Thursday and Friday at the Y house.
Trick Shots Make Citizen Kane' Classic
Orson Welles’ history making epic, “Citizen Kane” comes to the screen of Hancock auditorium tonight at 8 as one of the offerings of the Film Classic series.
The Kane film is important in a technical sense because of the methods used in its production. The remarkable use of creative sound in some of the scenes has been unexcelled. The voice of Kane and his wife fade into a sinister hollowness as they move away from each other in one of the big rooms of Kane’s’ house.
A technical method used in making the film more realistic is the use of newsreel shots. Kane is depicted in movies of the 1920 s. This part of the film is grainy by contrast and filled with just the right amount of artificial scratches.
Welles’ purpose was to have his Mercury theater players tell the story with a minimum of dialogue and narration. This method left the camera the active element in photoplay.
Flashbacks are used in telling the story. Ka§e’s servant conducts the last visitor on a tour of the huge publisher’s house and the story unravels from there.
Tickets for the series are still available in the university ticket office. No tickets for individual performances are sold.
HALF-TIME BULGE
Oregon’s 6-0 lead at half time looked Uke only the forerunner of a smashing win for the defending PCC co-champions from Eugene.
Yet after running up a huge statistical bulge against Troy in the first 30 minutes, they came back apparently the same team, and had six touchdowns scored against them and wound up 27 points in arrears when the final gun sounded.
It was a completely daffy game to say the least. One that you had to see to believe.
BACK IN SPOT
The win put the Trojans right back in the running for the Rose bov/1. Oregon's second conference loss eliminated them from conten tion, although they could still play the spoilers role by upsetting California’s unbeaten Golden Bears later in the season. %
Don Rogers and Bill Bowers both returned to action and contributed materially to the Trojan win. Rogers played only on defense and turned in a tremendous game at the safety spot. Bowers carried the ball five times and averaged 4.2 yards per play.
However, Jay Roundy, Jim Bird, and Tom Colley remained on the sidelines and game captain Art Battle was injured early in the first quarter.
SOPHS COME THROUGH
Fine performances by sophomores Pat Duff, Johnny Fouch, Bowers, Frank Gifford. Dean Schneider, and Dan Zimmerman made up for these (Continued on Page 3)
ing:
"Mediocre. Not anything special.” Non-student Gloria Cartozian, bookstore salesgirl, volunteered her “impartial” opinion. A graduate of I the .University of Oregon, she said: “It would have much more punch if it were shorter. For example, our 1947 slogan at Oregon was ‘A Home for Homecoifiing.’ At that time we were collecting money for a student union building. Even *o, I thing SC's is catchier than the Oregon one.”
Watch It Fellows! ’Shes' May Be 'lies'
Whoops! Don’t whistle at that dreamboat. “She” may be somebody’s boyfriend.
This will be good advice when the bevies of beauties slink across the stage at Bovard auditorium Oct. 31 in a contest to pick “Miss Gold Digger of 1949.”
The beauty contest will feature the poise, personality and beauty not of women, but of men. The masculinity of the entry will be artfully concealed by frills and laces, however.
Unwary males will be tapped this week to look “cute” in dresses. The deadline for entries will be Wednesday, according to Dick Pod-more, chairman of the Homecoming committee. Each sorority and woman’s dormitory is expected to have a male entry selected for sponsorship.
The rules governing the contest will be distributed today, Dick Podmore said.
Oskie to Stay at SC, Refuses to Go North
Duel in the Seine?
by LEON FURGATCH
Art Buchwald. former DT columnist and Wampus managing editor has challenged movie producer Walter Wanger to a duel, according to a United Press dispatch from Paris Friday.
Buchfald. who has become the motion picture critic cf the European edition of the New York Herald Tribune since he left SC in June 1948. issued the challenge after Wanger called him “‘immature” and “incompetent” for his review of “Joan of Arc.”
Wanger, who made the statement at a luncheon of the American club in France, has not yet accepted the challenge. ,
“I don’t think an American film critic in Europe should be an apologist for bad American films.” the UF quoted Buchwald as saying.
The former SC student is now sharpening some old dueling swords, despite the fact that dueling has been illegal in France for some time.
According to the French consulate here, Wanger and Buchwald
would be thrown into the bastile after they met on the field of honor.
A spokesman for RKO studios, distributors of “Joan of Arc,” called it a publicity stunt, when the DT called to ask for comment .
Buchwald was well known on campus for his column of humorous satire and his letters-to-the-editor character of the illiterate Howard Lindhofer.
The short, stocky Buchwald laughed at anything and everything, according to accounts from many students who knew him well.
Mike Colicigno, Unity party bigwig, called him a great liberal, and Al Hix, former DT columnist, said that he never saw Buchwald lose his temper.
‘ Buchwald was a deadly enemy of the row,” Hix said/ “and his only dueling experience was with TNE. outlawed political fraternity.”
The office of the registrar corroborated Hixs claim that Buchwald had no dueling experience.
They said that he had never registered in a fencing or archery class.
Hix agreed with RKO studios that his friend was only pulling a gag.
An account in a downtown newspaper told how Buchwald, after his arrival in Paris, grew a goatee, put on a beret, and met American tourists at a railroad station posing as a typical citizen. He let the tourists take pictures of him at 5 francs a throw.
Buchwald entered SC as a special student in 1945, because he had never graduated frcm high school. He left SC without a diploma or certificate. Records show that he never flunked a course.
Hix said that ‘Buchwald took whatever subjects he wished and never worried about requirements.” He was only after an education, he added.
Buchwald co-authored the varsity show of ' April 1948 entitled “No Love Atoll.” He was also a member of Unity part.v and Trovets during his stay at SC.
Dismayed Cal students were left waiting at the train gate over the weekend; Oskie refused to be put aboard the train Friday for the return trip north.
“He’s just grown too attached to SC,” said Knight Ron Beyl, “and wants to stay around awhile.”
Oskie, Cal’s bear mascot, disappeared in a retaliation move at the Berkeley game two weeks ago. Members of Lambda Chi Alpha whisked him away after they failed in attempts to recover the SC banner, which was stolen earlier in the game.
Oskie was to be delivered safely to Cal over the weekend. Since he refused to go back, hurried negotiations will be started with Cal this week, Beyl said.
Because Cal will be down here to play UCLA in the Coliseum Saturday, fears have 'arisen over possibilities of further retaliation by enthusiastic Cal fans if plans are not completed for return of the papier mache bear.
Hopes are high right now to get an exchange of Oskie for the banner, Beyl said. But just in case of mishaps in plans, Tommy Trojan will be guarded day and night, he added.
Special watch over Tommy is necessary because of pictures published in the Daily Trojan and metropolitan newspapers showing Tommy and Oskie sharing the ped-
estal in front of Bovard. If Cal rooters know what pals they are, Tommy may be in a dire predicament this weekend unless things are straightened out, Beyl said.

International Peace Control Is Forum Topic
Falling appropriately in United Nations week, the first ASSC forum this year will deal with the present day international situation.
Three campus professors Dr. Robert B. Pettengill, Dr. Harvey Seifert, and Dr. Eugene Harley, each prominent in his field, will analyze the situation for students Wednesday afternoon, 4:15, in Bowen hall. They will discuss “International Control, the United Nations, and Disarmament.” Dr. Ross I Berkes, professor of international relation* will moderate the forum.
Dr. Pettengill, director of the Teaching Institute of Economics, will discuss the aspects of international control. Dr. Harley, professor of political science, will defend the United Nations. Dr. Seifert, professor of religion, will discuss disarmament.
The forum committee, under the direction of June Tapp, has chosen the international topic for this forum in an attempt to broaden student understanding of the international scene in the light of recent developments.
Commenting on his topic of disarmament, Dr. Seifert stated yesterday, “I believe disarmament is an important matter we should be pushing through the UN. In many respects it is more important than eliminating the theory of unanimity or so-called veto power.” th*. Pettengill will delve into the possibilities of international control with or without the Russians. Taking a firm stand for the United Nations in disarmament and international control will be Dr. Seifert.
Each speaker witf^tovaikwred five minutes^ to present his views. Following the talks, the discussion will be thrown open to questions from the floor as well as among the speakers.

Program for UN Day Set By IR Club
Members of SC's International Relations club will today help celebrate UN day, recently proclaimed by President Truman, with a double program of day and night activities.
nie club will set up an infor-
spoke to more than 400 attorneys mation booth today from 8 am. to
4 p.m. on the walk south of the Student Union, Blake Lanum, club
and accountants at the institute.
“I am not a gun and badge man,” Oliphant stated. ‘Ours is npt just police work. Most taxpayers are honest.
“Our prime function is to reduce litigation. There are about 40,000 tax cases reported in the law books already, and that’s about enough. Four out of fivi! cases that come before the Tax Court of the United States or the federal district courts are ended by settlements,” he concluded.
On the subject of refunds Oliphant commented, “We do our best not to collect more than the amount, that’s due to the government.” In support of this he pointed out that about one-fifth of all big refunds to income tax payers are found and developed by internal revenue agents without a claim having been filed by the taxpayer.
Visiting speakers like Oliphant, Randolph Paul, former tax adviser to the Secretary of the Treasury, and Arnold Raum, first assistant to the Solicitor General, were high in their praise of the SC tax institute, only one of its kind in the West.
Speakers and members of the planning committee were honored at a dinner Friday night. Los Angeles attorneys who arranged the institute program were Louis M. Brown, John W. Ervin, Richard H. Forster, Arthur Groman, Sidney D. Krystal, Arthur Manella and Carl A. Stutsman Jr.
