Dance at Racquet Club
by Ed Neilan
With the Model UN convention only a week behind them, aspiring SC politicians and diplomats were dusting off their soapboxes again today in preparation for another “model” convention.
The event is the Model National convention, which will
be held on the Pepperdine college campus May 10. SC students will represent Republican and Democratic delegations from California I and Connecticut, according to Dr. ! Carlton C. Rodee, professor of polit-I ical science and president of the Southern California Political Science association, which is sponsoring the convention.
Demos and Repubs “Many southern California colleges and jaysees, Including UCLA. Pepperdine, Occidental, Redlands, Whittier. Loyola, Los Angeles State, Long Beach and Chaffey, in addition to SC. have been assigned states to represent in the conven tion,” Rodee said.
The Republican delegations will meet from 9 a. m. to 12:30. and the Democrats from 2 to 5:30 p.m. The meetings will begin with a call to order, followed by the keynote speech by the party’s national chairman, and the actual voting by delegations.
“In preparing for participation in this convention, the delegations must study the political backgrounds of their state and have a knowledge of the current political situation in that state,” said Rodee “The convention, which will follow party convention procedure down to candidate placards and banners, will offer to the participants first-rate exercise in political realism. They'll also learn how eastern politics differ with those of California.” Pic’l Democratic Chairman Dean Pic'l SC orator and debate squad member, has been selected as permanent chairman of the Democratic party. Don Muchmore. Long Beach State, will act as Republican chairman.
Any SC students who are interested in taking part in the model convention should contact Prof. Rodee in 420 Founders hall.
Dr. Totton J. Anderson, professor of political science, will be in charge of SC's delegations.

No Court-Martial For Two Airmen
SAN ANTONIO. Apr. 21—(UP)— Court-martial charges against two reserve officers who refused to fly were dropped today, but Gen. Hoyt Vardenberg. Air Fore*5 chief of staff, said it was no sign he had adopted a “soft” attitude.
“There is one idea I would like to knock in the head: that is, the notion the Air Force is in any way proposing to adopt a ‘soft’ attitude on this question of refusal to fly,” Vandenberg said.
The two men against whom charges of wilfully disobeying an officer were dropped are First Lt. .Tames G. Bristol, a pilot, and First Lt. Edwin L. Cox. a bombardier. Maj. Gen. J. K. Lacey, commander of the crew training Air Force, said he already had started admin- | istrative action to separate honorably from service.
“Sandwich Board Sandy” is back again and for two days this highlight of the pledging activities of Alpha Delta Sigma, national advertising fraternity, will be seen around campus.

Judging
Judging of the boards will take place tomqrrow at noon in front of Doheny library building. They will be judged on originality, art, copy, general layout, and the amount of work spent on the project by the individual.
Successful participation in the boardcarrying activity will qualify the pledge for active membership. The winner of the contest will receive his choice of a fraternity key or pin.

The squeeze Is on for tickets to the premiere of “Wide Horizon,” varsity show which opens Apr. 30.
That was the impression left yesterday by Rick Spalla, chairman of the premiere, who said seats are going fast for the star-studded opening.
“Bovard holds only 1800 persons,” Spalla pointed out, “and after the 50 members of the cast pass out tickets to their relatives and friends, after reserved seat blocks are filled and after the 100 prominent guests are provided for# there won't be many seats left.” No Standing Rocm
Spalla added that due to fire regulations, no standing room space will be sold.
Tickets are on sale at the ticket office for 60 cents.
The varsity show is scheduled for a three-night ran, Apr. 30, May 1, and 2. The opening night premiere will be strictly “Hollywood” with searchlights, celebrities, and a band.
Bleachers will line the walk leading into Bovard to give onlookers a chance to see the prominent aliunni and stars of stage, screen and radio who will attend the show. Johnny Grant, the disc jockey, will interview the stars as they arrive.
The show itself has 18 musical numbers written and arranged by Sam Spence, Jack Tillar. Elmer Haskin, and director Ed Earle. A 22-piece orchestra will provide the

musical background. The cast of 50 is rehearsing daily in Mudd hall.
Studios Loan Props
“The studios have been great about helping with the props,” said Spalla. “Paramount is donating all the lights for the premiere and also donated, several set sections. M-G-M provided shrubbery for the different scenes.”
The show, proceeds of which go to the Trojan Chest fund, is being plugged daily on the Bob McLaughlin, Don • Otis, and Johnny Grant radio shows.

SC Doctors Make Find
Few cases of diabetes would remain undetected if a simple blood test used by three SC doctors on 3132 students were used.
An article explaining the experiment appears in the latest issue of the American Medical Journal and was written by Drs. Paul O. Greeley, director of the Student Health center: M. H. Reinberg, center staff member; and Mary S. Littlefield, lab technician in charge of the experiments.
The single blood sugar test was performed on students two hours after injections of 50 grams of dextrose sugar.
As a "result of the screening test, conducted in the fall of 1S50, 12 nev% cases of diabetes and six persons likely to develop the disease were discovered.
Early diagnosis and treatment of the disease is very important, the article asserted. Experiments have shown that certain cells affected by the disease can be regenerated and that early changes are reversible if the disease is treated properly in its early stages.
D. Eisenhower registering a surprized look upon receiving the news of Gen. Douglas MacArthur's dismissal.
The photo was entered in the contest by Stars and Stripes. The newspaper gave- the following account of how the prize-winning picture was taken:
“Don't tell him until I'm set.” Reaction That was G randy’s reaction to the news that General MacArthur had been removed from his commands by President Truman, said Stars and Stripes. The ‘him’ was General Eisenhower whom Grandy was following during his inspection of French troops.
Grandy was thus in position when reporters informed Eisenhower of the news to take a photo of Ike’s reaction, said the army's pa-ped. Modestly, Grandy admitted the element of luck which is a part oif every good photograph.,
“I happened to get Eisenhower at just the right second,” he grinned.
Outstanding
The picture was acclaimed as an outstanding photograph and was serviced by the Associated Press, International News Photo, and United Press Newspictures. The •New York Daily News called it “one of the champion news photographs of 1951.”
Grandy, 29, lives in Herman, N.Y. Despite the acclaim he has won in the news photo field, Grandy says movie making is his first love. He holds a B.A. degree in cinematography.
according to the constitution, Is by a petition signed by 25 per cent of the members, and no such petition was presented.”
Jansen said the action was “an underhanded method on the part of a small clique to subject the interests of Unity party to their own selfish objectives.”
Executive Committee Wayne McClaskey defended the actions of the party faction which called the meeting. “I don’t know where Jansen gets his facts,” he said. ‘‘The executive committee of the party has the power to call a meeting.”
The executive committee is made up of the five Unity voting senators. They are John P. Bradley, A/lyn Hunt, Al Katz, Dick Van Lannan, and Miss Warnock.
“If Jansen had his way there never would be a Unity meeting,’* McClaskey continued.
Temporary Chairman “Jansen was only elected temporary chairman in the first place.” he said. “As far as Unity party senators are concerned, Jansen is out as chairman.”
Hunt expressed the same thought, saying, “Jansen is not Unity party —he’s one individual. He's like Senator McCarthy representing the whole United States Senate.”
Jansen Calls Meeting Jansen has other ideas, however. He's calling a meeting of Unity membership-at-large at noon today in 420 Student Union to take “definite and constitutional aetion on the party chairmanship.” Whether the action will be constitutional or not is a moot point because. according to McClaskey. neither faction has a copy of the Unity constitution.
Action upon the endorsement of Unity candidates may also be taken at Jansen's meeting, Jansen said. Candidates seeking Unity support will be allowed to present their platforms and views to party members at the meeting.
Prexy Yet/ Jeanne Says
Rumors that Jeanne Wamock resigned her post as Unity party chairman because of pressure on the part of the YWCA were»refuted yesterday by the blonde independent leader.
The story going the rounds had it that persons had called the YWCA objecting to Miss Wamock’s participation in politics because of her position as YWCA presidentelect. These persons, the rumor went,didn’t like the idea of the Y getting involved in politics.
Miss Warnock said that she had not resigned, that she was still party chairman, but that she was going to keep in the background. “I'm not to be quoted in connection with political stories.” Miss Warnock said.
Applications Due For YWCA Posts
Applicants for the 25 YWCA posts must submit their petitions by tomorrow iftemoon.
They will be interviewed by the outgoing and incoming executive cabinets tomorrow and Thursday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the YWCA building.

Apr. 21—(UP)— Court-martial charges against two reserve officers who refused to fly were dropped today, but Gen. Hoyt Vardenberg. Air Fore*5 chief of staff, said it was no sign he had adopted a “soft” attitude. “There is one idea I would like to knock in the head: that is, the notion the Air Force is in any way proposing to adopt a ‘soft’ attitude on this question of refusal to fly,” Vandenberg said. The two men against whom charges of wilfully disobeying an officer were dropped are First Lt. .Tames G. Bristol, a pilot, and First Lt. Edwin L. Cox. a bombardier. Maj. Gen. J. K. Lacey, commander of the crew training Air Force, said he already had started admin- istrative action to separate honorably from service. “Sandwich Board Sandy” is back again and for two days this highlight of the pledging activities of Alpha Delta Sigma, national advertising fraternity, will be seen around campus.

That was the impression left yesterday by Rick Spalla, chairman of the premiere, who said seats are going fast for the star-studded opening. “Bovard holds only 1800 persons,” Spalla pointed out, “and after the 50 members of the cast pass out tickets to their relatives and friends, after reserved seat blocks are filled and after the 100 prominent guests are provided for# there won't be many seats left.” No Standing Rocm Spalla added that due to fire regulations, no standing room space will be sold. Tickets are on sale at the ticket office for 60 cents. The varsity show is scheduled for a three-night ran, Apr. 30, May 1, and 2. The opening night premiere will be strictly “Hollywood” with searchlights, celebrities, and a band. Bleachers will line the walk leading into Bovard to give onlookers a chance to see the prominent aliunni and stars of stage, screen and radio who will attend the show. Johnny Grant, the disc jockey, will interview the stars as they arrive. The show itself has 18 musical numbers written and arranged by Sam Spence, Jack Tillar. Elmer Haskin, and director Ed Earle. A 22-piece orchestra will provide the JACK TILLAR . . . writer musical background. The cast of 50 is rehearsing daily in Mudd hall. Studios Loan Props “The studios have been great about helping with the props,” said Spalla. “Paramount is donating all the lights for the premiere and also donated, several set sections. M-G-M provided shrubbery for the different scenes.” The show, proceeds of which go to the Trojan Chest fund, is being plugged daily on the Bob McLaughlin, Don • Otis, and Johnny Grant radio shows. Til Be Darned' Ike Photo Wins Alum Cash “Well, I'll be darned" was the title of the winning photograph in the 13th annual Editor and Publisher spot news photo contest and also the reaction of the prize-winner, Francis J.

Information may be obtained at them [ the School of Law, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia SC Doctors Make Find Few cases of diabetes would remain undetected if a simple blood test used by three SC doctors on 3132 students were used. An article explaining the experiment appears in the latest issue of the American Medical Journal and was written by Drs. Paul O. Greeley, director of the Student Health center: M. H. Reinberg, center staff member; and Mary S. Littlefield, lab technician in charge of the experiments. The single blood sugar test was performed on students two hours after injections of 50 grams of dextrose sugar. As a "result of the screening test, conducted in the fall of 1S50, 12 nev% cases of diabetes and six persons likely to develop the disease were discovered. Early diagnosis and treatment of the disease is very important, the article asserted. Experiments have shown that certain cells affected by the disease can be regenerated and that early changes are reversible if the disease is treated properly in its early stages. D. Eisenhower registering a surprized look upon receiving the news of Gen. Douglas MacArthur's dismissal. The photo was entered in the contest by Stars and Stripes. The newspaper gave- the following account of how the prize-winning picture was taken: “Don't tell him until I'm set.” Reaction That was G randy’s reaction to the news that General MacArthur had been removed from his commands by President Truman, said Stars and Stripes. The ‘him’ was General Eisenhower whom Grandy was following during his inspection of French troops. Grandy was thus in position when reporters informed Eisenhower of the news to take a photo of Ike’s reaction, said the army's pa-ped. Modestly, Grandy admitted the element of luck which is a part oif every good photograph., “I happened to get Eisenhower at just the right second,” he grinned. Outstanding The picture was acclaimed as an outstanding photograph and was serviced by the Associated Press, International News Photo, and United Press Newspictures. The •New York Daily News called it “one of the champion news photographs of 1951.” Grandy, 29, lives in Herman, N.Y. Despite the acclaim he has won in the news photo field, Grandy says movie making is his first love. He holds a B.A. degree in cinematography. according to the constitution, Is by a petition signed by 25 per cent of the members, and no such petition was presented.” Jansen said the action was “an underhanded method on the part of a small clique to subject the interests of Unity party to their own selfish objectives.” Executive Committee Wayne McClaskey defended the actions of the party faction which called the meeting. “I don’t know where Jansen gets his facts,” he said. ‘‘The executive committee of the party has the power to call a meeting.” The executive committee is made up of the five Unity voting senators. They are John P. Bradley, A/lyn Hunt, Al Katz, Dick Van Lannan, and Miss Warnock. “If Jansen had his way there never would be a Unity meeting,’* McClaskey continued. Temporary Chairman “Jansen was only elected temporary chairman in the first place.” he said. “As far as Unity party senators are concerned, Jansen is out as chairman.” Hunt expressed the same thought, saying, “Jansen is not Unity party —he’s one individual. He's like Senator McCarthy representing the whole United States Senate.” Jansen Calls Meeting Jansen has other ideas, however. He's calling a meeting of Unity membership-at-large at noon today in 420 Student Union to take “definite and constitutional aetion on the party chairmanship.” Whether the action will be constitutional or not is a moot point because. according to McClaskey. neither faction has a copy of the Unity constitution. Action upon the endorsement of Unity candidates may also be taken at Jansen's meeting, Jansen said. Candidates seeking Unity support will be allowed to present their platforms and views to party members at the meeting.
