The runoff election between Bob Richmond and Dick Calhoun for the presidency of the freshman class and Dori Bonham and Martin Green for the vice-presidency Oct. 12th, subject to the approval of the senate, Bob Reynolds, eletion commissioner, announced Friday.
The special election was found necessary when Bob Richmond, though polling more votes than any of the other candidates, did not obtain a majority of all the votes cast. Recent legislation demands that in such cases a runoff election be held between the two candidates polling the largest numbers of votes.
Expenditures up to $25 will be allowed each of the candidates for his campaign, Ellen Potter, vice-president of ASSC, said.
In the absence of provisions for runoff elections in the student constitution the decision was made on the basis of action taken in a similar situation during the elections last year.
Reynolds cautioned the campaign managers that all publicity must be cleared through Bernard L Hyink. dean of students, and that financial statements of campaign expenditures must be submitted V> Ellen Potter, vice-president of ASSC. by noon of the day of the election.
It will not be necessary to secure voting booths from the city for the election as sufficient booths are available on the campus to handle the anticipated vote, Reynolds said.

•Wamp Boffs Eiffels-
“Zees Warn poos eez—’ow you say? —zee cat's negligee!”
That was the sparkling comment of Miss Frou-Frou D’Arcy. darling of the Folies Bergere, Friday when she examined an advance copy of the October issue of the campus humor magazine, which goes on sale tomorrow.
Miss D’Arcy, who flew here from Paris last week to be seen in the vicinity of the Wampus sales-coun-ter, frankly admits that her trip is a publicity stunt.
“I ’av hear of zees gay journal even in Paris,” she said, explaining that to be seen in company with a copy of Wampus is to be the toast of the French capital.
“Of course,” she said, “zees witty publeecation ’as been ban from zee FYench mails, but we of zee Folies ’ave been able to steal our best screepts from eet.”
The peppery Gallic sensation, called by the Paris edition of Varie -ty “preety as zee post card,” is accompanied by her pet Pomeranian ••Le Fido.”
“Zees Tirebitair must take care ’ she said, “my dog ees a real ti-gair.”

Officials to Plot Foreigner Aid
University officials will meet with immigration authorities this afternoon in an attempt to relieve the financial plight of SC's foreign students.
More than 303 foreign students on campus were affected by the devaluation of the pound and subsequent devaluations in other sterling areas of the world.
An attempt will be made to secure work permits for the students, without which aliens may not do any work requiring a social security card.
Other emergency measures under consideration are allowing students to take less than 12 units to facilitate holding part-time jobs, and securing scholarship aid.
The possibility of receiving aid from the student loan or scholarship funds is slight, however, since both reserves are practically depleted.
Council of Religion To Hold Meeting
Two “firsts” for the Student Council of Religion, a banquet and a float entry in the Homecoming week celebration, will be discussed when the Council holds its third meeting of the semester, 3:15, today in the Chaplain's bungalow.
Bob Grilfin, president of the Council, said both of the big projects planned for this fall are new to the organization.
Griflin invited all persons interested in seats on the council to today’s meeting at the bungalow at 2713 S. Hoover street.
“We need many new members,” he said.
No Check Yet? Coming Nov. 1
“The bills came in, but the checks didn’t.”
GI students sang the same sour song today after many expected checks failed to arrive on schedule.
“Veterans who registered in July and didn’t get their checks over the weekend will probably receive them Nov. 1. There will be no special mid-month mailings,” William E. Hall, assistant registrar for veterans affairs, said Friday.
Hall added that some veterans who registered in September may receive subsistence checks Nov. 1 but most of these students will get their checks at a later date.
Students who are attending school under deferred tuition or who have not received their certificates of eligibility may expect the elusive slips of green Dec. 1 at the earliest. The same goes for students whos-j VA records have not yet been trans -ferred to the LA office.
An unofficial count by the veterans accounts credit office revealed that total veteran enrollment at SC is 15.309. Of this tot3l 12.985 are attending under Public Law 346; PL 16 rehabs, 667; deferred tuition, 507; dental PL 346 400; dental rehabs, 100; and state 650.
Four SC coeds will today display the hour-glass figure of the 1850’s.
The winners of the Foun ders day contest, four 1850 women and the four chosen to represent 1950, will be pho tographed this afternoon at 3 p.m.
The 1850 women will hav to struggle into the whalebone corsets, multiple petticoats, and gored skirts of that era. The worn en of 1950 wiU be dressed in the iatest collegiate fashions.
The women. will participate in the Founders day ceremonies Wednesday, that wiil commemorate the date of Oct. 5, 1880 when the Rev. Marion McKinley Bovard first SC president, received the keys of the university from the Board of Trustees.
High spot of the Founders day ceremonies will be the laying ot the old and new cornerstones lor the LAS building. After the cornerstones have been laid, a gold ribbon will be placed around old cornerstone and a cardinal ribbon around the new one. Two women from each group will take the ribbons to the center and Dr. Fagg will join them to graphically depict the uniting of the past with the present.

Neyman Speaks in Bowne Hall Today

Soloist Delores Peterson will sing, “Unto Thee. O Lord,” accompanied by Pat Davis.
Tommy Gets Protection Against Paint Attacks
SDX
. . . will meet at 1 today in 418, Student Union. All pledges should attend.
Tommy Trojan went under cover Friday afternoon as wary Knights, recalling past mutilations of SC's famed statue, took precautions to prevent a recurrence of last year’s paint bombardment.
Believing that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, the Knights decided to have Tommy draped with a heavy canvas whenever UCLA has access to the Coliseum.
Tommy has repeatedly been attacked by brash wielding Bruin students. Most recent of these attacks occurred last year when blue and gold paint was freely used on Mr. Trojan and on the Iront ot the administration building. Hie clean-up campaign tnat followed lasted a week and reportedly cost more than $1000.
The problem is not a new one. In 1946, a daylight raid was made on the statue by a bold UCLA student. The attack occurred about 10:30 a.m. when the Bruin fan jumped out of his car and hurled black and blue paint at Tommy. Although hotly chased by a motorcycle-riding student, the culprit managed to escape without punishment
The Knights were one jump ahead of the Bruins that time, though. Tommy had been covered with a thick layer of grease and the paint was easily wiped off.
BOB PADGETT First Non-Org
It’s Definite Now
Padgett First Non-Qrg Prexy
Further search Friday of available records in University library indicates that Bob Padgett definitely is SC’s first non-org president.
A check of student newspaper files back to the 1912-13 academic year was made and showed that Padgett was the only non-org elected during the 36-year period.
Only once in the years explored did a write-in candidate win the
Petitions for tiv; chairmanships of the student union .greater university, URA, and Troj3n Chest committees may be obtained in the ASSC president's office today and tomorrow. They must be filled out and returned by 5 p.m. Wednesday, President Eob Padgett, said.
Grim visages, haggard from weekend pastimes, are expected to crack into smiles today when the Phrateres open their “Hello and Smile Week” by cutting the ribbon encircling “Hello Walk.”
The ribbon-cutting ritual will take place at noon today
in front of the University library,*-- ■ — ■
. with Helen Hall Moreland, counselor of women; Bob Padgett, ASSC president; and Ellen Potter, ASSC vice-president as official cut-ups.
CHUCKLE GETTERS In order to put book-burdened , Trojans in a jocular mood, the walk will be lined with slogans advising them to, “Come on, smile,
I you’ll find it's easy; it even makes ! your teeth feel breezy.”
“I'd walk a mile for a smile,” is another grin teaser.
Tags will be distributed on campus and in sorority and fraternity houses to remind students to effect a change of facial expression involving a brightening of the eyes and an upward curving of the corners of the mouth, expressive of amusement, pleasure, affection, irony, derision, etc.
KING. QUEEN GET JACK A “Hello and Smile” banner wi’l
hang from the third floor of the Student Union throughout the week.
Photographers, cleverly concealed along the Hell walk which extendi from 35th place to 36th street on the library side of University avenue, will take pictures of the widest and brightest facial yaks. The pictures will be entered in the “King and Queen of Smiles” contest, and winners will be announced at the AMS-AWS picnic Friday.
Personality smiles will pay off. for the winners will receive $10 merchandise orders.
The “King and Queen of Smiles” will be chosen by judges Bernard L. Hyink, dean of students; Katie Connelly, Panhellenic adviser; Rae Haas, Mortar Board president; Joyce Elman, chaiman of Hello week; and Frank Ashley, DT editor.
Willett
Race'
Explains
Clause
pres:dency. The election of Gardiner Pollich on a write-in vote in 1927 was upheld by the student senate.
The last presidential re-election was held in 1943. A second election held later that spring was ordered by the Senate after irregularities in oting were revealed by a fact-finding beard. Bill Caldwell, defeated in the first election, won in the retake.
Interviews
Senior council interviews will be held today and Wednesday from 2 to 4 p.m. in 112 Bridge and Tuesday from 3 to 5 p.m. in 211 Bridgr announced Larry Bub, senior president.
Students who have completed M units are eligible to apply. Petitions will be available at the receptionist's desk in the Student Union until Tuesday night and in 112 and 211 Bridge Hall during interviewing hours.
First official report of the Senate committee investigating the use of the ‘ race and descent” clause on admission applications will be filed Wednesday with the secretary of the Senate.
The committee report is the description of conferences between the panel and Dr. Hugh C. Willett, director of admissions, and Clarence Bergland, assistant director.
The five-page document, compiled by a six-man committee from the Council of Religion, is the first concrete result of an investigation touched off last semester by Bob Padgett, newly elected ASSC president.
From Mar. 23 to mid-April, hotly-worded debate about the clause intermittently flared at Senate meetings.
The survey will be continued for weeks, a committee spokesman said.
‘USEFUL DISCRIMINATION’
Mentioned in the first report is discrimination “to the advantage of the applicant” and “useful, justifiable and legitimate reasons foi discriminating” in some cases.
These cases where discrimination would be “positive” are in the fields of medicine, dentistry, library science, and teacher training, it was disclosed.
“In fairness to the applicant, this means refusal of admittance if it will be impossible for him to complete his training and to place him professionally,” it was stated.
Bureau Head Tells Child Aid Need As Alumni Honor Arlien Johnson
Need for an expanded program ox social services for children on a national scale was cited by Katharine Lenroot, chief of the U.S. Children’s bureau, Friday night before 400 at the Town and Gown.
Miss Lenroot spoke at a dinner given by the alunini association of the SC School of Social Work in honor of Dean Arlien Johnson’s 10th anniversary as head of the school.
Only about one-fifth of the counties in the United States have a full-time public child welfare worker, Miss Lenroot said.
Miss Lenroot feels that extension of these services must be based on sound community planning which considers the resources and contri-
butions of public and private agencies.
“There has been a great advance in the extension and enrichment of both health and welfare services,” she said. Enactment of the Social Security act of 1935 made possible the development of public child welfare services. Now every state, territory, and the District of Columbia has recognized in law its responsibility for the welfare and protection of children.”
Miss Lenroot paid high tribute to Dean Johnson as a national leader in the field of social work.
“The School of Social Work of the University of Southern California cannot be thought of apart from
the personality of Arlien Johnson,”’ M.. . Lenroot said.
‘Her imprint on its life and character will remain throughout the coming decades. She has also influenced—and will continue to do so—social work practice and knowledge throughout the nation.
Alumni presented Dean Johnson with a check for establishment of an Arlien Johnson Library Fund. The presentation was made by Frances Lomas, director, Belvedere district, Bureau of Public Assistance.
President Gordon Manser of the alumni association op?ned the program. Chancellor Rufus B. von KleinSmid of SC was master of ceramnniN.
Policies of the school were outlined in a discussion of applications for the teacher training program.
“We shall have to follow tha social trend rather than lead," tha report declared. “We accept society as it is and work with it under its conditions.”
TEACHING LIMITED
The number of Oriental or Negro students that can be placed in practice teaching is absolutely limited, the opinion stated. ‘The source of limitation Is outside the university,” it said, explaining that once the limit is reached, those who cannot be placed are invited to apply toward a different objective.
“We feel that this procedure works to the distinct advantage of the applicant,” the report said.
This is one of the pre-registration uses of the clause mentioned in the committee findings. FURTHER USES The administration also uses tha race and descent clause in connection with student aid and housing during the student’s school years. After graduation, the information in the clause is one of the “personality factors” provided organizations and authorities seeking data on former students, the report stated.
Bob Griffin, president of the Council of Religion, read the report at the Senate meeting Wednesday. The report was compiled by a committee composed of Lynn Hartzler, Jerry Smith, Gershen Lewis, Jeanne Bobilin, and Robert Bobilin.

The committee report is the description of conferences between the panel and Dr. Hugh C. Willett, director of admissions, and Clarence Bergland, assistant director. The five-page document, compiled by a six-man committee from the Council of Religion, is the first concrete result of an investigation touched off last semester by Bob Padgett, newly elected ASSC president. From Mar. 23 to mid-April, hotly-worded debate about the clause intermittently flared at Senate meetings. The survey will be continued for weeks, a committee spokesman said. ‘USEFUL DISCRIMINATION’ Mentioned in the first report is discrimination “to the advantage of the applicant” and “useful, justifiable and legitimate reasons foi discriminating” in some cases. These cases where discrimination would be “positive” are in the fields of medicine, dentistry, library science, and teacher training, it was disclosed. “In fairness to the applicant, this means refusal of admittance if it will be impossible for him to complete his training and to place him professionally,” it was stated. Bureau Head Tells Child Aid Need As Alumni Honor Arlien Johnson Need for an expanded program ox social services for children on a national scale was cited by Katharine Lenroot, chief of the U.S. Children’s bureau, Friday night before 400 at the Town and Gown. Miss Lenroot spoke at a dinner given by the alunini association of the SC School of Social Work in honor of Dean Arlien Johnson’s 10th anniversary as head of the school. Only about one-fifth of the counties in the United States have a full-time public child welfare worker, Miss Lenroot said. Miss Lenroot feels that extension of these services must be based on sound community planning which considers the resources and contri- butions of public and private agencies. “There has been a great advance in the extension and enrichment of both health and welfare services,” she said. Enactment of the Social Security act of 1935 made possible the development of public child welfare services. Now every state, territory, and the District of Columbia has recognized in law its responsibility for the welfare and protection of children.” Miss Lenroot paid high tribute to Dean Johnson as a national leader in the field of social work. “The School of Social Work of the University of Southern California cannot be thought of apart from the personality of Arlien Johnson,”’ M.. . Lenroot said. ‘Her imprint on its life and character will remain throughout the coming decades. She has also influenced—and will continue to do so—social work practice and knowledge throughout the nation. Alumni presented Dean Johnson with a check for establishment of an Arlien Johnson Library Fund. The presentation was made by Frances Lomas, director, Belvedere district, Bureau of Public Assistance. President Gordon Manser of the alumni association op?ned the program. Chancellor Rufus B. von KleinSmid of SC was master of ceramnniN. Policies of the school were outlined in a discussion of applications for the teacher training program. “We shall have to follow tha social trend rather than lead" tha report declared. “We accept society as it is and work with it under its conditions.” TEACHING LIMITED The number of Oriental or Negro students that can be placed in practice teaching is absolutely limited, the opinion stated. ‘The source of limitation Is outside the university,” it said, explaining that once the limit is reached, those who cannot be placed are invited to apply toward a different objective. “We feel that this procedure works to the distinct advantage of the applicant,” the report said. This is one of the pre-registration uses of the clause mentioned in the committee findings. FURTHER USES The administration also uses tha race and descent clause in connection with student aid and housing during the student’s school years. After graduation, the information in the clause is one of the “personality factors” provided organizations and authorities seeking data on former students, the report stated. Bob Griffin, president of the Council of Religion, read the report at the Senate meeting Wednesday. The report was compiled by a committee composed of Lynn Hartzler, Jerry Smith, Gershen Lewis, Jeanne Bobilin, and Robert Bobilin.
