DT Outstanding Again But Oh, That El Rodeo
The typewriters in the DT city room hummed a merry tune yesterday, but in the El Rodeo office all was gloomy.
SC’s Daily Trojan triumphed over the UCLA Daily Bruin by receiving an all-American rating in the December issue of Scholastic Editor, national collegiate publication mtgazine. The DB was relegated to mere first-class mention.
This was all to be expected.
However, in the college yearbook ratings, UCLA’s Southern Campus won all-American honors, while SC’s El Rodeo was given only first class.
Whether this has any significance was not immediate ty determined.
Trovets Ask Students, Faculty to Remember'
Bruins Lead Trojans as Red Cross Blood Drive Enters Final Quarter
Trovets yesterday began its two weeks Living War Memorial scholarship drive with an appeal to administrators and employees of the university.
Frank Ford has been appointed general chairman ot the drive by Andy Weber, Trovet president.
With the theme ‘ Remember,” the Trovets have started their fund raising campaign by sending pledges to faculty and contacting school officials.
Scholarship Drive
The scholarship drive wil send an orphan of a World War H or Korean veteran to the university. The Travels will turn the money over to the university and allow the Scholarship committee to make the choice. One of the important factors is that the orphan chosen must be one who lacks funds to go to college. The scholarship will be for the entire college enrollment and ** everyone will

drive. Final reports at UCLA show a total of 615 pints pledged by Bruins. Their drive snded last week.
The SC total topped the 400 mark yesterday but tomorrow is the last day of the drive.
Last year SC led all West Coast colleges with a 364-pint total. This year the prolonged bitter Korean war has drained away blood reserves and all quotas have been upped. Both SC and UCLA quotas were set at 540 pints.
Need Acute
So acute is the need this year, that for the first time, military men are being asked to contribute. SC's NROTC unit has responded splendidly with 235 pledged pints, which is almost a 100 per cent average for the group.
“Most of the non-naval reserve pledges have come from men and women over 21,” said Daryl Emer-
