“The only possible exception would require a two-thirds vote of the Senate to amend the agenda,” he added.
The Rules Committee will submit all proposed legislation to a test of technical clarity and accuracy to avoid heated arguments on the Senate floor jver small technicalities, he said.
All members of the Senate who anticipate bringing up legislation at tomorrow's meeting must submit it to the Senate parliamentarian, 215 SU, by noon today, Karabian said.
The Rules Committee, headed by Senate Parliamentarian Gary Dubin, will meet each Tuesday preceding a Wednesday Senate meeting to receive legislation for that week's meeting.

In addition to clearing legislation. the Rules Committee will act as an advisory council to Karabian in his forthcoming program to “do a little house-cleaning” in the ASSC constitution and bylaws.

Fifth Place

Fox, first prize winner in the California finals, was in competition with 11 other state finalists.
Class Flags Begin New Troydition
Cardinal pennants of the 76 classes which have graduated from SC were raised at last Friday’s football game as the newest tradition at SC.
Raised on staffs at the peristyle end of the Coliseum, they will be displayed there at each home game.
Three feet long and trimmed in gold, the pennants bear white numerals of the class graduation year. They are displayed four to a staff on 18 poles with two staffs holding two pennants each.
“We have many traditions at SC because we are the oldest private university west of the Mississippi,” said Francis D. Tappaan, vice president in charge of student and alumni affairs speaking from the field to the football crowd as the pennants were raised for the first time.
“You can’t have traditions without age, and SC has been in this community for a very long time. WTe’ve been here longer than any other institution of higher education,” he said.
"SC was founded in 1880. In 1884 the first class of three students was graduated. Last June saw the 76th class graduate. There have been more than 80,000 graduated since 1884, each contributing to SC’s heritage and sharing in its traditions, each adding to the worth of our community,” he continued.
“In years to come you will be able to look back to this occasion and remember it as the inception of the pennant tradition. Each year another pennant will be added for a graduating class,” he concluded.

The Inter-Fraternity Council will place strict controls pledge training in the future, John Berne, counselor of men’s organizations, said today.

Firemen Jack Knill and Bill Parker, members of a rescu« unit who tried to turn the choking Swanson onto his back to administer oxygen, told police that their actions were questioned and hindered by fraternity members.

Anyone for a quick haircut or shave? The most convenient place for Trojans to “spruce up” is right on campus since Barber Harry Sutcliffe opened his shop below the Commons this week.
Sutcliffe, a barber for 10 years, has been hired by the university to be the official campus barber. The shop is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
“This is a nice switch from what I’ve been doing,” Sutcliffe said. Before coming to SC he owned his own shop in Riverside. He sold that business and took a chance on being hired at SC.
“Why did I want to sell my own business and come here? Because I like working with young people. Besides, I’ve always been a staunch rooter of the Trojan teams, and I just decided I’d like to be a part of this institution,” he said.
“To be honest, I really like doing flat-tops. I consider this to be my ‘speciality,’ and I thought a university like SC world be a pretty good place to show my skill,” he laughed.
The moustached, 46-year-old barber was brought to SC as one of the first projects in making the university a complete unit in itself, said Elton D. Phillips SC business manager.
Male residence halls more than
doubled last year, which greatly increased the number of men on campus.
“Business hasn”t picked up to the speed I hope it will,” Sutcliffe said. "But, of course, we’ve just been open one day, and students and faculty members haven’t really had a chance to find the place.”
An optimistic spirit prevails in the shop, however, as customers can see as they walk into the three-chair shop. Already Sutcliffe has interviewed barbers to work the other two chairs. He plans to name his two coworkers socn.
In addition the clean, new shop has plenty of room to add two more chairs if busines requires.
Sutcliffe, a native of New "¥ork City, came to California when he was six years old and reached the southern part of the state by the time he was 11.
After graduating from Venice High School in Los Angeles, he went into the welding trade, specializing in arc and acetylene welding.
Following service in the Navy, he decided to become serious about barbering. He entered a barber school in San Diego in 1949 and has been in the profession ever since.
"I definitely recommend shaving with a straight-edge razor,” the barber said. “That is, if you have had a little practice.
“As for haircuts, flat-tops seem to be the most popular style for men today, he explained.
“There’s a trick to figuring out what men want, however, when they come in and ask for everything from a Princeton to a Balboa. Each part of the country has different names for haircuts. I’ve found out, though, that these are just two different ways of asking for a flat-top.”
Prices for all haircuts in the SC shop «x’e fixed at $1.75. Sutcliffe ieels that men who prefer flat-tops shouldn't be "punished” because they look better in that style.
Not only does Sutcliffe cut men’s hair, he has already had some Trojanes in his shop.
One of the more important aspects of barbering is to know whether customers come in to get a few minutes of relaxation or to catch up on the latest news,” he explained.
“I try to suit the customer’s mood.
“When I ask a conversational question and the man just nods or shakes his head, then I figure he’d rather just sit quietly,” he said.
It is just this good-natured understanding which made Sutcliffe the choice over more than eight other barbers who applied for the position.
The idea of a barber shop (Continued on Page 2)
ing headed by Ken Cotier, provides for the following:
(1) That all fraternities conduct their informal initiation period at the same time.
Te coroner’s jury will determine of Swanson's death was accidental or if it was the cause of criminal negligence.
Its decision will probably cen-
(2) That each fraternity must Iter around the type of first aid submit a complete schedule of ¡given and the degree of coopeia-pledge activities for the semes- tion received from Kappa Sigs.
{ter, along with a program of pledge activities to occur during “Help Week,” to the Fraternity adavisor.
(3) That on each day of informal initiation, a committee of five fraternity presidents will visit the fraternity houses to observe the initiation programs.
This action came about primarily to provide a means of enforcing pledging regulations which currently appear in the IFC bylaws, Berne said.
“There seems to be no question that fraternity membe < cooperated,” said Dr. William II. McGrath, assistant dean of students — men.
Stories Conflict Dr. McGrath pointed out that Lt. William Porter, who conducted the police investigation, noted a “conflict” in the stories of the ambulance attendant and the firemen.
“The coroner’s inquest is a
