Frills Removed; Troy Emerges From Darkness
Well, Homecoming has officially ended, or at least the last traces of Homecoming disappeared from the campus last week.
After a two-week delay, the decorations on University avenue, pretty though they were, were removed from the electroliers.
Students may once again have enough light on the street to see which building they are entering before they get inside, and also enough light to read the street signs.
With this small complexity of student life removed, students returning from the Thanksgiving weekend are liable to think they have found their way to the wrong campus.

SC Maid of Cotton’ Describes Thrill; Considers Her Selection Fabulous'
By Gloria Sexton
“Fabulous” was the word used by Pi Phi Phi Paula Turner when she won the SC Maid of Cotton contest.
“We had to walk in front of the judges several times and talk p. lot. They even told us to say ‘now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country,’ ” she said.
Laurel Bump, Alpha Omicron Pi, who"" is “very thrilled” about winning second place said, “We had to walk about 15 feet in front of the judges. They asked us what our major was and looked at us from the back walking. Then we got in a line while they looked us up and down. We all wore after-
noon dresses for the judging.”
Judge Dr. Charles M. Whitlo, head of the SC retailing department, said the girls were judged on scholastic average, leadership, appearance, poise and conversation, and conformity to normal, body standards.
“This is not primarily a beauty contest,” he said. “We checked the

SC Loses

Troy’s Offense Cracks As Bruins’ Cameron, Stalwick Turn Heroes
By Kent Milton
The victory bell, a 39-0 loss, and second place in the Pacific Coast conference all apparently meant nothing to the Trojans Saturday as they fell—with a heavy thud—before an obviously aroused UCLA team, 21-7.
No one quite realized until Saturday what effect the Stanford loss had had upon Jess Hill’s legions, but it became apparent to all in the third quarter that SC was out of this game, and even when the Trojans tallied in the final stanza—after the Bruins had 21 points—no one took the lone touchdown as anything approaching a comeback effort.
Until the third quarter it was hard to tell what the final score would be, because the Trojans had put on their usual first half show —that of going nowhere. When they didn’t go anywhere in the third quarter and early fourth quarter, the 70 per cent filled Coliseum began to realize that Waterloo was near for an SC team that had played a brilliant season, until this game.
The first half, except for one quick 7-point thrust by the Uclans, was marked mostly by defensive strength.
Troy got an early break but couldn't capitalize on it. Bruin safetyman Joe Sabol fumbled a punt return which Dean Schneider gobbled up and carried over the goal. The officials ruled the ball dead after the fumble which brought it back to the 38. The Trojans sweated for eight plays but could make it no farther than the 27 where they had to relinquish the ball.

he was violently anti-American. He was Yosuke Matsuka, who became foreign minister prior to Pearl Har bor.
Reviewing some of the different approaches that colleges have used to better acquaint foreign students with America and to avoid petty prejudices. White said “Harvard answers this problem by ruling that no foreign undergraduate may room with another.
Instead he is given two or more American roommates. In their nightly bull sessions his English fluency improves and his loneliness evaporates. Soon his American friends are asking him home for vacations, not as a freak from abroad, but as a friend, White said.
The importance of projects throughout the country which attempt to show foreign students how American industries and farms operate, was stressed by White.
If one should ask how the average American can help to create
our foreign students, he has only to imagine how he would feel if he were allowed .to remain alone atd friendless in a foreign country, White said.
“His best answer then would be to go out and make a friend for himself—and America—among the thousands of our young and impressionable visitors,” White concluded.
