Close Victories Registered in Alumni Park Runoffs

JOHN GARR . . . LAS prexy
John Garr, “really shocked” at his good fortune, was swept into the LAS presidency in Friday’s Alumni Park runoff election with a 47-vote victory margin over rival Hillard Torgan.
Chuck Leimbach, in winning the Freshman presidency, led a surprising TRG sweep of freshman offices. The Frosh football player won his office by a mere nine
votes over his all-U opponent, Dick Grantham.
Leimbach’s running mate, Regina Gesell won an easy victory over All-U candidate Diane Holt—if you can call a 46-vote margin an “easy” victory.
Garr ‘Surprised’
Garr, supported in the balloting by the TRG and Unity parties, expressed real surprise when notified of his 333-286 vote-edge over Torgan. “Someone told me I was sure to lose when the polls opened,”.he said. “No one could be more surprised about the results than I am.”
Leimbach polled 254 votes over Grantham. Speaking for himself and his running mate, Leimbach said, “Regina and I are happy and surprised. We want to thank all of those who voted for us. Now that the campaign
is over, I hope that all of the losing candidates will join with us to work for the good of the freshman class.” SC’s Narrowest Victory
Probably the narrowest victory margin ever recorded in SC elections was marked up by Lenore Monosson as she defeated Bud Sealts for junior class vice-president, 128 votes to 126.
“I’m left breathless to think that I won by just two votes,” Miss Monosson said. “That really shows that everyone’s vote counts in an election.”
A total of 1371 votes were cast in the three divisions of the runoff election. In the LAS election, Garr and Torgan together polled 619 votes. The tight Monosson-Sealts election saw 254 ballots cast, and freshman votes totalled 499.
Election Ran Smoothly
Once again, the entire election, under the direction of Elections Commissioner Chuck McClure, ran smoothly. The Senate is expected to ratify the election in special session some time this week.
Garr and Leimbach will take their Senate seats at the next regular session Oct. 28.

The breakdown for UC includes 8700 credit students, 800 in the Extension Division and 1000 attending Dr. Baxter’s Shakespeare course.
Of the students attending University College for credit, 5300 go only at night, while 3400 attend both day and night classes.
Large Program
“University College has the third largest program in the United States. As Los Angeles grows, UC grows,” said Dean Hancey. He also stated that UC is typical of a big city institution, as the need is not so great in a smaller city.
UC offers courses in community service in nine Southern California communities, programs in mathematics and engineering for graduate students at Edwards Air Force Base, and other varied courses both for credit and noncredit.
The average student takes two night courses a week and is either going for a degree while working during the day or is getting more information to help him in his job.
Man’s College
UC is a man’s college. Eighty per cent of those attending are men and last semester more than fifty per cent were veterans.

VACCINE DEVELOPED
Troy Aids in
Research
by Olga Katsigeanis
A vaccine which may prevent polio has been developed from recent experiments by five colleges, including SC, according to Dr. Harold E. Pearson, acting head of the SC medical microbiology department.
The experiments, sponsored by the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, uncovered three different vaccine members.
The first one, Bruhilde, was named after a chimpanzee used in the experiment conducted at John Hopkins University in Baltimore, Md. Lansing, the second vaccine, was found in an experiment done at Lansing, Mich.
The third vaccine, Leon, was named after a patient who was
SC POLITICAL SCIENTISTS EVADE TRIESTE QUESTION
by James Foley
SC political scientists were hesitant Friday to discuss possible solutions to the Trieste problem. Drs J. Eugene Harley and Carle-ton C. Rodee could not offer a solution because the stand taken by Yugoslavia is so new the department has not had sufficient time to study the turn of events.
“We don’t know which of the two countries, Italy or Yugoslavia, should have Trieste, and if we aid know, what would Russia’s reaction be to the answer?” said Dr. Harley.
Yugoslavian Claims
The problem as it stands today Involves the turning over of Trieste to Italy by America and England. Yugoslavia claims to have a share in the territory. Because of this, Yugoslavia has implied retaliation by force if necessary. They claim this would be legal under the provisions of the U.N. Charter.
Dr. Rodee said that Italy has j been dragging her feet in the J
world problems of today and this may have given England and America an opportunity to find out how she really stands. Then, too, Yugoslavia, which is a communist state, has been given arms by

the U.S. and now may be a good time to see which side of the Iron Curtain Tito wants to play with.
Dr. Harley said that the solution of one question also raises more questions in its place.
Russia's Reaction
Russia claims that the turning over of Trieste to Italy is in violation of the Italian Peace Treaty of 1947. As one of the Big Four powers during World War n, Russia thinks she should have as much to say in the problem as the United States and Great Britain.
Dr. Harley also conjectured another thought that Tito’s sudden show of strength may be due to internal pressure of his subordinates. If Trieste is lost to Italy, many high-ranking men in the Yugoslavian government may start an “I told you so” campaign against Tito.
Both professors agreed that it is too early to second guess British and American decisions.
in isolation for polio here in Los Angeles.
Other universities cooperating in the experiments include the Universities of Pittsburgh, Kansas. and Utah.
“The question now is whether the combination of the three vaccines will make humans immune to polio,” said Dr. Pearson.
The majority of the experiments have been done in Pittsburgh under the direction of Dr. John Salk. The vaccines have been results of large field trials in various parts of the country.
Started in 1948
Classifying the vaccines and developing them for immunity against infantile paralysis is part of the program which was nationally started in 1948. Among those who began the experiments were Dr. Charles F. Pait, associate professor in the SC Science department and Dr. John F. Kes-sel, former head of the medical microbiology department. Dr. Kessel retired from SC in 1950.
The cooperative program was founded here in 1940 by Dr.
Kessel, and was the result of the grant and appropriation given by the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis following its conference in 1939 at Washington, D. C.
The present study at SC is concerned with three fields of research. The first is a survey of neutralizing antibodies against the Lansing-Armstrong strain of the virus and other strains in normal laboratory animals and in animals which presumably have been exposed to poliomyelitis infection.
SC Study
Another is a detailed study in the field of any polio epidemic or similar virus infections which may occur in the Los Angeles area.
The third is a study of the reaction of body cells in tissue cultures infected with polio ana other viruses.
“The Bruhilde vaccine grown in the culture of tissue cells from monkeys is comparable to the way diptheria immunity toxin is harvested, although the vaccine culture is grown separate rather than mixed,” said Dr. Pait.
Official Notice
In recognition of the fact that several thousand students will attend the SC-Cal game Oct. 24, University administrative officials and student body leaders have made arrangements for a special rooters’ train to Berkeley. Because of the risk involved due to	the unusually heavy traffic on highways to the San Francisco	area,	and	in the interest of safety it is	hoped that many
students will take the train rather than drive their own car. The University, through the offices of the Educational \ ice-President and the academic deans, is requesting that instructors of classes where students are predominantly undergraduate not penalize students who are absent on Friday, Oct. 23. Students will assume responsibUity for making up the work which they miss in such classes.
The student rooters’ special will leave Los Angeles at 8:16 a.m. and arrive in San Francisco at 7:15 p.m. Oct. 23. The return train leaves San Francisco at 8:16 a.m. Sunday and arrives at Los Angeles 7:35 p.m. The Trojan Band will ride on this train, and plans are being made by the raUroad to make this train a typical “football special.”

Its the half-way mark for the topsy-turvy 1953 football season, and the SC Trojans, who were close to the depths of despair one short week ago following their 13-13 tie with Washington, now ride the crest of the PCC-upset wave. With a helpful assist from the spirited Stanford Indian,
Coach Jess Hill’s gridders now rank as the only unbeaten major team on the Pacific Coast — an honor that the Troymen formerly shared with the now defunct UCLA Bruin.
Stanford’s 21-20 win over the Westwooders Saturday in Palo Alto also shot the Trojans to the lead in the hectic race for 1953 PCC honors. With their narrow draw with the Huskies marring an otherwise perfect season slate,
Hill’s footballers now enter the second-half of the unpredictable 1953 campaign as a heavy favorite to successfully defend their PCC crowTi of last year.
But, the Trojans, who returned to the victory column Saturday with an impressive 37-0 win over Oregon State College, will undergo their own hazardous invasion of the Bay Area this weekend to do battle with the California Bear.
And Coach Lynn Waldorf’s re-surging eleven will be out t© repeat the upset-pranks of their neighboring Indians.
Rougher Fight
The Bears—win, lose, or draw —are expected to give the Trojans a rougher fight than did the OSC Beavers. Bluntly—Kip Taylor’s gridders were never in the game.
Crossing the midfield stripe only once, the Beavers had a goalward march stopped on the SC 24-yard line—much to the dismay of the 34,163 fans in the Coliseum. The Beavers, in fact, have yet to score a point this season while bowing to five conference foes.
The Trojans, meanwhile, lived-up to all advance expectations.
Tabbed as 33-point favorites at game-time, Hill’s lads scored once in the first quarter, twice in the second and third periods, and add-(Continued on Page Three)
-¥■ + * Band Show Tops Half-Time Activities
by Ed Neilan
SC submerged Oregon State 37-0 Saturday in the Caliseum but the day’s real “winner” was Tommy Walker who staged the tremendous Band Day show at half-time.
Majorettes, pompon and flag girls and musicians from 18 Southern California high schools turned the floor of the Coliseum into a bright quilt of colors.
The bands first appeared before the game and were introduced in a big “March of Bands’* around the track. The 2000 musicians then collaborated under Walker’s baton to do a stirring job on the “National Anthem.” Music Week Tribute
At halftime, the bands spelled out “Los Angeles Philharmonic”, in tribute to Music Week and played Tschaikowsky’s Piano Concerto.
Then the bands formed several large bass fiddles, and with the majorettes and pompon girls moving across as bows, played “In The Hall of the Mountain King” by Grieg.
