Revolt
Chinese Communists, in their Ians for building a new nation, re paying more attention to edu-tion than to economics, a suin-er session audience was told cdnesday.
Each Chinese high school stu-;nt must take five hours a week f political education, said Dr leodore H. E. Chen, head of the epartment of Asiatic studies. Each liege student must have 17 of Ls 130 units for graduation in the eld of political education.
“There is no distinction between EDUCATION FOR WAR ucation and propaganda in Com-junist eyes,” said Dr. Chen.
“The Communists don't rely en-rely on open force or violence, hey use suasion first and coercion ;xt, if necessary.
“Student propaganda teams are nt out among the people to soften lem up for tlie invaders. The gap etween the educated and the un-ckicated is large in China so achers and students wield a great lfluence on public opinion. CHIANG HAD STUDENTS “Chiang Kai-shek couldn't have en to ix>wer 22 years ago if he adn’t had the students of his y behind him. The Communists day have the students of this neration with them.”
A month before the occupation f Peking and Tientsin, Dr. Chen id, the Communists announced 'ho would be the new presidents f the universities in those cities, his action, taken before even the ayors and other civic adminis:-rators we re selected, proved the portance ol education in the new gime, he said.

Registration shov/s dip from '49 figures
Although Summer Session registration ranks SC’ among the top four of the nation’s universities offering “off-season” courses, late figures from the office of the' registrar today revealed Troy’s summer enrollment approximately 1000 below last year’s totals.
Complete registration figures showed 11,489 enrolled in the Summer Session, including both the six- and 10-week periods, as compared to 12,400 in 1949. However, it is estimated that an additional 200 will be added to the current session by enrollment of late registrants and of aeronautics and graduate medicine students not yet reported.

URA offers dances, games
by VINOD PATHAK
Out of the social and sports activities conducted by the URA, it seems that the students will have much to pick and choose from the ensuing programs.
A social dance, the second in a string of dances set out for the summer, will be the main attraction today. Mickey Anderson’s orchestra will play the rhythmic tunes. Admission is 50 cents. No formal wear is insisted upon but sports wear will be appreciated. An opportunity open to all whether single or otherwise.
A sad piece of news for trip-minded persons. The UR chairman regretted that a trip to Catalina which had been arranged for July 9, had to be canceled due to the regular classes.
Fish in the deep sea are in a constant threat of aggression due to the deep sea fishing probram of the URA on July 15. For the said act, a chartered boat has been procured by the URA chairman, Alex Aloia.
On sports front, Aloia said that today is the deadline for entry in the a 11-university Summer Session golf tournament. For all-university handball tournament the final date for entries is July 7.
All classes which regularly would have met on Monday, July 3, will meet on Saturday Jul.V 8. This meeting will substitute for the one missed because of the holiday.

Reserve fighter pilot called up
The Marine Air Reserve Training Command reports that William Avery Monfort, a sophomore stu dent last fall in the School of Dentistry, will begin two week-; : -tive duty as a part of the Mannc Reserve summer training activities at Cherry Point, Calir.
Monfort is a member of Marine Fighter Squadron 241, at the U. S. Naval Air station, Los Alamitos. He had an excellent war time record. Besides getting the Air Medul, he was fortunate to get Presidential Unit citation. He saw dutv in the Solomons, New Georgia, Okinawa and China.
Rent ceiling misses mark
Rent control protects only the minority and works to the advantage of the conscientious landlord, according to Dr. Robert B. Pettengill’s interpretations of his recent survey of Huntington Park.
Dr. Pettengill, director uf the Teaching Institute of Economics here, found that Huntington Park rents were raised after decontrol in less than half the dwellings checked, and that the increase was cnly 20 p£r cent. The other three-filths of the dwellings had no rent increases at all.
Less than half the tenants interviewed even thought they knew what the ceiling was on their homes, and most of them guessed too high.
Dr. Pettengill’s survey covered 126 rental units and 47 units that were owner occupied. The sample was chosen at random from the official rent registration files and included different types of rental j units in all parts of the city.
DALE DRUM . . . seventh best
vocal guns at 8:15 p.m. in the North auditorium, 133 Founders hall. The Stanford team, David Lavitt and Forest Barr, will return the fire.
NATIONALIZE INDUSTRY?
SC will take the affirmative on the argument, ‘ Resolved, that the United States should nationalize its basic industries.”
Stegman is co-captain of the debate squad, and a member of the team that beat the touring British debate team for the second time in the 26 years they have met the Trojans. He is best known for his biting humor.
DRUM BEATS AGAIN Drum was ranked seventh best debater in the country at the national debate tournament at West Point. He is watched for a bril-liant. straightforward style.
In West Coast competition, the SC team won 20 and lost 4. At West Point they bested the national forensic champion team from the University of Vermont.
HOT PAIR No less austere is the duet from Stanford. Last month they won the Pacific Northwest-Rocky Mountain tournament at Montana university.
Dr. Alan Nichols, SC debate coach, predicts that this will be one of the fightingest, most brilliant debates ever to take place. And his prediction has grounds, in that this will be the last debate for both Stegman and Drum.
