ASSC Ballot Bulges
As Nominees Chosen
Four more candidates for the five top AS SC posts were nominated from the floor ol the nominations assembly yesterday, and eig ht other candidates were returned irom limbo of ineligibility by Elections Commissioner Jim Schuck as political campaigning entered its final week.	.
Another nominations assembly for the remaining offices (ASSC President, Vice-Fresi-dent and secretary, AMS president,
and yell king were dealt with yesterday) will be held today at noon. Those candidates who already have petitioned will be introduced, and further nominations will be in order from the floor.
The nominations will be finally closed at the same time. Candidates for all offices may speak for themselves or have a representative talk in their behalf, but all speeches will be limited ta one and one-half minutes, according to Schuck.
Candidates nominated yesterday were Howard McCrady, TROY party ASSC presidential standard bearer; Alberta Slater, ASSC secretary; and Robert Imel and Mel Baron, yell king. These candidates have yet to be cleared as to scholastic and other requirements for office.
Eight OK
The eight now declared eligible were rendered ineligible last Friday by Commissioner Schuck. They have in the interim straightened out scholastic and office requirements in accordance with constitutional and university regulations. This action does not constitute a reversal of policy, since these candidates have now met the legal requirements.
The people back in good graces are Anne Clements, ASSC secretary; Terry Taft, yell king: Ron Tomasco, pharmacy vice-president; Jerome Schneider, education vice-president; Shirley Stolinski, education treasurer; David Murray and Elva Soper, international relations vice-president; and William Riddle, engineering vice-president.

It's Either a Boy or a Girl, Snell, Old Man
Now that it has been conclusively determined that the Wampus animal is a cat. Editor Perry Snell is diligently trying to ascertain the sex of the humor magazine’s mascot.
“Maybe it’s a boy cat,” said Snell, “and if it isn’t a boy cat. maybe it’s a girl cat.”
Since the “us” ending of the name is the Latin masculine suffix, it might lead people to feel thc Wampus is a boy; however, former Wamp editor Allen A. Arthur last semester gave the plural as Wampuses rather than Wampi and this would dispel rumors of a Latin origin.
The Wampus heirarchy, says the Snellanimal. is offering a lucrative reward, the amount of which is yet to be determined, for the person who can conclusively ’determine the gender of the Wampus feline.
Entries to the Wampus mag will be judged on aptness, oribinality, and clarity of thought.

Another ASSC presidential aspirant, 'Wendell Casey, told the assembly he was not a candidate for an office, but for a job. He said too many people feel that once they gain the office that is an end in itself; but he said he felt the office was the means to an end—a job well done.

World Affairs Magazine Sale Set Tomorrow
The World Affairs Interpreter’* spring issue will be on sale tomorrow afternoon at the University bookstore for 50 cents a copy.
Four of the more interesting articles in this quarter's issue, according to Willett L. Hardin, editor, are "Middle East: Powder Kef of the World,” C. C. Kochender-fer of Kent State university; “Towards Self Government in Malaya'* by Percival Spear, Far Eastern affairs expert and fellow of Selwya
college. Cambridge university, England: "WiU Communist China Become a Replica of the Soviet Union,'* Max Mark, Western Reserve university; and ‘The British Commonwealth Under Elizabeth II,” by Adamantious Th. Polyzoides, lecturer in International relations, SC.
The Interpreter is primarily interested in the interpretation and philosophical discussion of world affairs, although it is concerned also with a factual presentation of important current events.
Hardin has been editor of the publication for 23 years. Before being published by SC, it was the Quarterly Journal of Science, Religion, and Philosophy.
Through the years it has received contributions from some of the world's outstanding men. including Robert Millikan, Cal Tech. and Dr. Albert Einstein. These men both contributed articles in the spring issue in 1932, “. . .before many students here born,” Hardin reflected.
Dr. Hardin who has written every editorial for the past 23 years, had several of them published in book form under the title “Democracy, Its Problems and Its Strength.”
Eighty-three-year-old Hardin, who doesn’t look his age, started the magazine as a hobby and has done all the work on it ever since.
When told that he didn't look his age. Dr. Hardin chuckled and said that his secret was “ . . , being around youth. I treat coeds as I did in college ... I have a lot of fun with them,” he smiled.
Subscriptions are $2 a year and may be directed to the World Affairs Interpreter. University of Southern California, 3518 University avenue, Los Angeles 7.
Veterans Asked To Sign Petition
Signatures of veterans attending SC on either PL 16 or PL 346 are needed before Friday for the petition being sent to a California congressman for an increase in subsistence and earning power.
“Only about 10 per cent of the veterans enrolled at SC have signed the petition and it is felt that it will be relatively ineffective unless additional signatures are obtained,” said Larry Courtney, president of Trovets.
Courtney &id that any veteran who has not signed the petition and wishes to do so is urgently requested to visit the Trovet office this week.
The office. 405 Student Union, will be open all day and each evening this week.
TV Class Sees Demonstration On Micro-Wave Transmission
by Bill Rogers
A demonstration of micro-wave transmission, the medium employed by television, was given yesterday before the telecommunications class of James J. Rue. teaching assistant, by alumnus Daniel G. Strebel of the public relations office of the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph company of Los Angeles.
Strebel, class of ’37, transmitted micro-waves carrying the music of a long-playing record into a receiving set to pick up the sound. The straight line over which the waves travel was shown when the receiving set was moved away from the beam, and the horizontal position of the waves was demonstrated as Strebel cut off the sound by turning the set on its side, although keeping it on the beam.
Conductors Interfere
Interference with reception was shown to be caused only by conductors of electricity by placing a metal plate in the direct line between transmitting and receiving sets to cut off the sound.
Holding a board in front of the receiving set, Strebel showed that non-conductors of electricity would not interfere with transmission.
“It has also been found,” Strebel said, “that water, a poor conductor of electricity, does not interfere with transmission through ram or snow.
“The micro-wave measures seven centimeters, or about the length of a king-size cigarette and travels horizontally at a frequency of about 4000 megacycles,” he said.
Straight Line “Because the waves travel in a straight line, micro-wave transmission of television shows from New York to Los Angeles must be facilitated by relay towers, of which there are 115 across the country and eight between San Francisco and Los Angeles.
Strebel also showed how the micro- w-aves bounce off an obstruction in their path by diverting the beam off a metal plate and into the receiving set placed at a right angle to the transmitter.
“Because of this." Strebel said, “television programs are being picked up by persons living next to mountains who would not otherwise receive them.”
Extensive Use Micro-wave transmission was devised at first for voice communication, but its importance now arises from its extensive use in television.
“Micro-waves will carry any type of color television, and in the future there is the possibility that two or more TV programs may be carried on the same frequency by polarizing the waves,” Strebel said.
Also exhibited was a coaxial cable which consists of eight tubes capable of carrying 2400 two-way telephone conversations at a time. The cable is used for long-distance calls across country and is placed in street conduits for use in business districts.
St. Louie Cable
Its use in television transmission is limited, the cable being used for that purpose only between Chicago and St. Louis and along the Atlantic seaboard.
Strebel also brought along with him the so-called transistor, invented in 1948 by William Schockley of the Bell Telephone laboratories, which may eventually replace or supplement the vacuum tube. It is about the size of .22 rifle cartridge.
“The transistor contains a small piece of germanium crystal and, because the electrons are already present making unnecessary any heating up. it has great reliability and long life,” Strebel said.
