FORREST TWOGOOD . . . eyes victories
rojans Meet Bears For Crucial Series his Weekend at Pan
by -Stan Wood Ordinarily, when two per-ons or two groups have met n 109 occasions, it is reason -bly safe to assume that the costers are on the friend-^t of terms.
This • assumption, however, be completely dispelled tarting tonight and tomor-w evening when the SC and fornia basketball teams lash in a crucial twin-bill at he Pan-Pacific auditorium.
Spirited action and good ketball should be plentiful in this vital series since these are currently the two hottest teams in the southern circuit, lough both teams own only ediocre 15-9 seasonal records, each has been tremendous in the stretch drive as evidenced by their respective records.
The Trojans are atop a five-game victory wave and have won seven of their last eight games. The Bears had an ight game winning streak going until last Sunday night ^hen their victory string was severed by the Military Air tansport five in Honolulu. Troy, by the way, beat this ame service team by a 75-69 margin when the SC team was lucking leis and hoop wins on their Hawaiian excursion between semesters.
The 110th and 11th hardwood encounters between the two schools can very easily be the deciding factor in determining the champion of the tight PCC southern division.
California leads the race with a 4-2 record while SC and UCLA are one game back with 3-3 standards. Stanford trails the pack with a 2-4 mark. The Indians, however, have five home games in ^their final six conference contests so with their home-court advantage, Stanford could conceivably throw the race into a down-to-the-wire chase.
The race could even wind up in a blanket finish with four teams showing 6-6 records.
This ending would not please the ever-trying and vastly improved Trojan basketball brigade if last night’s scrimmage was any criterion. The squad, with exception of their injured captain Don Underwood, is in great physical shape for the series—indeed, a rarity in this injury-packed season.
The players showed more enthusiasm in their final workout yesterday afternoon than in any since preparing for the UCLA games. Coach Forrest Twogood—as do many observers on the Daily Trojan sports staff—believes his team

Harry Slams Taft On Political Issue
From th« United Press
President Truman has taken a slap st Sen. Robert A. Taft for making the U.6. joint chiefs of staff a political issue, but he still refuses to shed any light on his own political plans. Speaking at a Washington press conference the President said that the question of seeking four more years in the White House is "a difficult decision for me to make.” He saio. however, that when he is ready he will announce it himself and “not through a third person.”
On the matter of the joint chiefs, the President said they are not political appointees and not a proper subject for political discussion. Sen. Taft stated in Seattle earlier in the week that he had no confidence in the military leaders and their conduct of the Korean war. The President reaffirmed hie -utmost confidence m them.

The President also has criticised newspapers for- publishing the fact that aerial maps showing the location of U.S. atomic installations have been issued by the government and are easily available to the
public. The President said it would be bad if the charts fell into the hands of enemy spies and reprimanded a reporter who pointed out that “anybody can get them just by writing” to the Civil Aeronautics authority.
This latest brush with the press centered around a recent story in the Minneapolis Morning Tribune about the government's issuance of 12.000 detailed maps of atomic installations and how these maps could be obtained. The newspaper said the government charts carried far more details than those in a map published by. Fortune magazine in January, 1949, which drew the President’s fire.

Trovets Praised For Book Mart; End Best Year
Members to Foot Bill For Running of Mart; Donations Only $25
Business at the Trovet Book Mart is braking to a halt this week after running briskly for four weeks.
We are approaching the $3000 mark with almost 1300 books sold, plus other itmes such as slide rules, drafting sets, dissecting tools, and Spanish records,’’ said Larry Courtney, president of the Trovets.
Joe Dorn, pre-dentistry student and veteran, said that he was extremely satisified with the selling of his books, because the sale was in the interest of both parties” and not made outrageous by the “elevating influence of profiteering.” Hours Spent
The book mart will remain open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and from 6 to 7 p.m. through next week, but the latter part of the week will be devoted to returning unsold books and •uncalled-for money.
Courtney said this year has been the Trovets' most successful in the book business.
50 Donated
“I believe that our street level location, donated to us by the university. is mainly responsible for the increased trade.” Courtney said.
The main costs of financing the book mart will have to be paid by the Trovets. Donations from our patrons to cover our expenses of printing receipts and buying office space for the mart have amounted to only $25. The mart has run up a bill of $70, Courtney said.

Johnstone Gets VP Post In Run-off
by Ted Wilson
Chuck Kelly, Delta Chi, was voted in as the new president of the Inter-Fraternity council yesterday at a special meeting held at the Delta Tau Delta house.
Others elected are Bill Johnstone, vice - president; Herbert McGregor, secretary, and Larry Deutch, treasurer.
The voting was brisk and decisive. Kelly won the election for his office by a margin of eight votes over the combined 12 votes of his two op-poent, Al Graves Phi Kappa Psi, and Warren Ettinger, Tau Epsilon Phi.
Kelly who is a senior in foreign trade, has held the offices of secretary of the Trojan Knights, president of Delta Chi, junior baseball manager, and social chairman of the IFC. He came to SC as a junior from Menlo Junior college.
The meeting was opened by
CHUCK KELLY . . . the winner
George Gottesman, Zeta Beta Tau, treasurer. Bud Hauslein, Phi Sigma Kappa, retiring president was unable to attend because of his »law classes. Later, before voting, Jack Tillar, Delta Tau Delta, retiring vice-president, took over.
When nominations for the office of vice-president were called for by Tillar, Ed Isen-berg, Zeta Beta Tau, who had
Four Decline Nominations For Offices
been nominated at the last meeting, stood and declined nomination because of lack of time to devote to the office.
Then in quick succession Jerry Capello, Phi Kappa Tau; Johnstone, Phi Sigma Kappa; and Al Glaves were nominated.
The first vote ended in a 15-15 tie between Capello and Johnstone. In the resulting run-off Johnstone won.
When nominations were put in order for secretary, Gottesman, who had been previously nominated, asked that his name be removed from the ballot. This left McGregor, Acacia, the only other nominee, to win tfy unanimous ballot.
Larry Deutsch, Tau Epsilon Phi, won the election for treasurer in the same way. Bob Slandrick, Theta Chi, and Dick Worth, Beta Theta Pi, declined their nomination.
Senators Table Idea To Incorporate ASSC
by Sam Feldman
Seven items were discussed and voted upon in the ASSC Senate meeting Wednesday night after lengthy debate on two mam issues, the IFC amendment and the incorporation of the ASSC. The former wras defeated and the latter was tabled in accord with constitutional provisions.
The first meeting of the Senate this semester found the members gathering speed and finishing 20 minutes ahead of the 11 pjn. deadline.
John F. Bradley, senator-at-large, figured in three of the discussions. He gave committee reports on the budget and diplomas and introduced an amendment to the Constitution.
Budget Distributed
After distributing complete copies of the budget, which showed how much each department has spent so far this semester Bradley made three recommendations:
1.	That the School of Medicine be given mere money.
2.	That the graduate class fund be abolished.
3.	That $300 of the Associated Womens Student fund be frozen for publication of Steering Wheel, which explains campus organizations to new women. He recommended three means to raise funds for the AWS to make up the difference.
Diplomas Changed
Only changes in diploftias this year will be in the paper and everything will be in capital letters. The size, type, and frame were found to be satisfactory by the committee. The printer and administration worked with the students in the changes.
The amendment to have all voting members of the Senate carry at least 12 units and have a 1.30 scholarship average in office was discussed and placed on the agenda for the next meeting. According to the constitution the Senate has to wait one meeting before voting.
Bradley Backed
A 14-to-9 vote backing ASSC President John Bradley’s decision not to change the eligibility of the IFC president aroused considerable debate. Tony Ward, senator-at-large. had thought that the IFC representative was an officer of the Senate and therefore required to have a 15 grade-point average to bold office. The ruling of President
Bradley’s was that he was not an officer, but a voting representative.
The Senate voted to allow the University College student body a non-voting membership on the Senate. George Maley, president of UC student body, thanked the senators and said the new post would serve as a liason between the two student bodies.
Election Supervision . AWS elections this year will be supervised by the ASSC elections committee. Lois Stone, ASSC seo-retary, asked this be done to insure proper handling of the elections.
Jeanne Warnock, senator-at-large, displayed tine filing system used on the activity cards of freshman and sophomore women and recommended it be continued each year.
New members, proxies, and the absence of non-voting members were noted at the initial meeting of the Senate. Knight President Don DuBose and Squire President Warren Clendening were introduced.
Wampus Needs Music Critic ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Arthur Calls Truman
Judge Harry Truman has been found.
After making repeated attempts to find Judge Truman, of Independence. Mo., Wampus Editor Allen A. Arthur, finally got somewhere yesterday, when he called the editor of the Independence News.
“Oh, that must be the president,” the editor said to Arthur's query about whatever happened to the judge.
At that moment the operator broke in and said, with a horrified note in her voice. “Oh goodness, is that the one you wanted?”
When it was finally established who Judge Truman was and where he was, Arthur asked the operator to connect him with Washington.
But the operator was reluctant and said she couldn t call Trjpian for him unless he knew Truman, and she wasn’t convinced that he didr
Arthur explained that he used to know of a Judge Truman in Independence, but wasn’t sure if the man in Washington was the same guy, but if he was, he wanted to talk to him.
He didn’t get to talk to the president, but a White House spokesman said, “The president wants you to write him a letter.”
Arthur, who has been trying to contact the judge to ask him to be
music critic for the Wampus, came back in true fashion:
“The Wampus is very happy that the president wants to correspond with us.” i
Plenty Snow For Skiers
There may be a lack of snow in Norway for the Olympics, but there will be plenty of the white stuff at the Trojan Ski club hill this weekend, and all tows and facilities will be operating.
The recent storms have deposited five feet of snow at the Trojan hill, and tomorrow will be the first time the tows have been in operation since the heavy snowfall last month. The warming hut will also be open.
The area will be available to all members of the club and their guests. Anyone interested in joining the club will be welcome on the hill, which is located just beyond the Mt. Waterman chair lift on Angeles Crest highway.
Instruction will be given Sunday to all snow* “bunnies” and beginners. Practice for future races will be held, and the club will also conduct tryouts for th|e men or women’s ski teams. *
City Leader Gets Degree In Spare Time
City Councilman Kenneth Hahn received the degree of master of science in Education here yesterday.
The diploma represents nearly six years of study in summer sessions and late afternoon classes since Hahn returned in 1946 from service in the South Pacific as a lieutenant in the Navy.
Hull Present*
Osman R. Hull, Dean of the School of Education, presented Hahn with the degree in the presence of Dr. C. €?. Crawford, professor of education, who supervised the councilman’s thesis.
Hahn, who also holds a secondary school teaching credential from SC, said he would start work immediately for a doctor’s degree in education.
The councilman teaches a course in city government at Pepperdine college, from which he received His A.B. in 1942.
He wrote his master’s project, “A Course in Local Government for College Students,” m the form of a syllabus to use in his class. It can also be used for the indoctrination of new city councilmen into the intricacies of local government, Hahn said.
