HC Parade May Be TVed
At 8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 9. the “greatest homecoming parade of all” will start its march down Wilshire boulevard's Miracle Mile.
The parade will start from Orange Grove street, one block east j of Fairfax boulevard, and will end at Detroit street, one block west of La Brea.
Parade chairman Alden McKelvey said Paramount studios have donated huge spotlights for the
occasion, and two local studios are A special Homecoming luncheon . interested in televising the entire
ASSC President John Bradley expressing student body opinion, sent a telegram to Life magazine Friday labeling as “unwarranted and unfair” the article in its latest issue covering the SC-Cal game.
* Life’s article ran six pages, mostly pictures. In a story Pat Cannamela was referred to as a “human gorilla,” 2nd the team was accused of "impersonating Murder, Inc.” Bradley’s telegram follows:
“Your insinuations that SC's victory over .California was achieved by unnecessary rough tactics (life, Oct. 29) is an insult to a fine group of athletes who gained a great upset victory. Your story can only be added to other irresponsible charges of ‘dirty football’ which have been denied by all competent obr servers including California coach Lynn Waldorf. Phrases such as ‘Murder, Inc.’ and a ‘human gorilla.’ and statements that SC’s planned strategy was to ‘soften them up first and worry about winning later,’ are unwarranted and unfair.”
Students Irate
. Bradley was not the only student angered by the article. Spot interviews were made on campus in a poll of student opinion concerning the story. Bob Connor, a junior,

said, “Not only are many of their points inaccurate, but I think Life Is biased in *favor of the Cal team. What is more, I don't think that Life has had the time to get more than one side’s opinion—Cal s.”
Bill Fox, a junior in the School of Commerce, had xthis to say. “From the selling point of view, I think the article is tops. I would
say that the pictures show Cal played just as roug a game as SC —Olszewski was shown on his feet, Sanbrano was flat on his back Regardless of what Life was trying to prove with its article, by showing Gifford’s 69-yard run and the top-notch blocking that made it possible, they certainly gave a boost to the team's prestige.”
Band Good Too
Nancy Mispajel, a sophomore music major, made no bones about her views. “The Trojan band is the best college band iir the country. It marches better, looks better, and plays better than any other. Did they give the band the credit it deserves? There was one small picture showing three band members playing their instruments while sitting in the club car enroute to Berkeley,” said Nancy. “Also some of the pictures taken on the train showed Trojans with whiskey and beer, but no pictures were ever shown of the _ disgusting way in which the Cal rooting section behaved themselves. The whole arT tide was biased and unfair,” she said.
N<Jne of the students were fanatical or hotheaded about it, they seemed to know exactly what they were talking about.

Price will be $3 a ticket including tax, a reduction of 60 cents over previous years, said dance chairman Beck Kissclburgh. Carmen Perez, assistant chairman, will be in charge of sales. -
The dance will be held at the Deauville club in Santa Monica, Nov. 10 from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Frank Devol’s orchestra and the Firehouse Five will provide the music, playing at the same time in different
rooms of the club, ft
The Firehouse Five will play in the Continental room on the second floor, while Devol’s orchestra makes music in the Empire room on the main floor.
“Due to the tremendous success of our team this year, I don’t see how the dance can be anything but a huge success,” said Kissel-burgh. “We have exclusive use of the club 4hat night,” he added.
The only criticism of last year’s dance was the crowded condition at* the refreshment counter. Kis-

The Egyptian Parliament issued brought their dispute with Britain

“A very definite legal question rises in this dispute. Egypt has ileaded that a change of conditions justifies her action. This sug-its an aspect of treaty law which lys that in some exceptional cases very fundamental change of con-litions, not existing at the time the treaty was negotiated, and
that the Egyptian allegations were wholly unfounded, since the Anglo-Egyptian Treaty of 1936 would not expire until 1956 and it provided for the presence of -British troops in Egypt.”
The result was that the Security Council, Dr. Harley said, felt the two disputing parties should try to settle their own problem, but the Council left the question on the agenda for future reference may be brought up at the request of either of the two disputing parties or any council member.
college degree.
The second ’ course offered will be a four-year full-time day curriculum open to a selected number of outstanding students who have completed two years of college work.
Both programs will be offered in addition to the present full-time three-year course requiring a college degree‘for admission.
Meet Growing Needs
This stepped-up curriculum is being initiated at the recommendation of the California State Bar’s survey committee.
In order to meet the growing needs of the Los Angeles area, the committee has recommended establishment of an expanded program of high-standard evening instruction for part-time law students, said Dean Shelden D. Elliott.
“Our evening program will aid in meeting this need. It will be open to students who fulfill the same admission requirements demanded by our three-year full-time day program,” said Dean Elliott.
“We believe that the number of qualified college graduates in the Los Angeles area who cannot attend a full-time law school during the day will justify our providing the opportunity for them, to enroll for night courses. ’
Three Years Inadequate
It is the general opinion that three years of full-time law study is inadequate to provide the subject coverage that present-day law practice demands, said Elliott.
“A four-year program for selected students with demonstrated scholastic ability provides the additional time necessary for such extended coverage,” l^e said.
Keynote speaker for Religious Emphasis week, the Rev. Alan Walker, will speak on “Religion and International Affairs” at 3:15 p.m. in 133 FH.
An Australian religious leader, the Rev. Mr. Walkef is speaking at SC with the backing of the University Christian mission.
