An Ordinary Precautionary Get Together
SC and UCLA faculty and student leaders met Tuesday at noon in the Town House, and Master of Ceremonies Willis O. Hunter, Troy’s athletic director, said it was "just the annual precautionary meeting to forstal anything that might happen’’ in the way of pre-game and game-time destruction or vandalism.	>
Hunter said the meeting between the leaders from both schools was just the ordinary luncheon get-together that takes place each year before the SC* UCLA football game. It is put on just to keep the good relationship between our two schools the same as always, he said.
Prevent Destruction
“Trouble-shooting'’ to try to prevent any campus destruction raids or out-of-place activities at the game was done at the meeting, Hunter said. He also said that everyone at the meeting expressed willingness, the same as ever, to cooperate.
* A few thmg6 will be modified in comparison to the usual SC-UCLA football battles. At this time no banners on top of the Coliseum above each rooting section are planned because they are "objects for attack.” It is up to the yell leaders if there is to be an exchange. SC Yell King Bob Maners says that he doesn't know yet if there will be an exchange.
% No Serenading
It was emphasized at the meting that no serenading will be al- j lowedeither before or after the , game. The losing team side will sing its alma mater first.

-¥• + 92,000 Fans To View Tilt
Ticket Manager John Morley estimated last night that 92.000 people will jam into the Coliseum Saturday afternoon to watch SC play UCLA in their annual football feud.
Even rooters’ tickets are being picked up faster than usual, said Morely. More than 3500 of the ducats had been claimed last night, leaving only 2000 without owners. ."
The ticket office has figured out a way to keep rooters from forgetting to pick up their tickets for the Notre Dame game during the confused half-vacation next week.
Everyone picking up a ticket for the UCLA game also receives one for the Notre Dame fracas. In this way there will be little worry over stranded Notre Dame ducats. Those not getting their UCLA tickets may pick up their Notre Dame passes next week, however.
Students will be able to get their pair of tickets at the Service Building for the last two SC football games of 1953 up until 11:30 Saturday morning.

Wind Scatters Leaflets Away
Thousands of leaflets hearing “This is the big one. here’s our theme—“Ruin the Bruin’s Rose Bowl Dream’ ” were dumped from an airplane over SC yes-’ terday about 12:15, but almost all missed the campus.
The stiff wind that was blowing, swept the 6 hy 5 inch sheets far from the SC campus, at which they undoubtedly were directed, and squarely upon the incompleted Harbor Freeway. The plane was identified as a single engine monoplane by an “aviation expert” near the scene.
They were dropped on a single run by the plane some 800 to 1000 feet up about three blocks west of Founders Hall, and they blew about four blocks east of the campus onto the freeway.
The Knights salvaged some and distributed them on campus.
The leaflet dropper still is unknown.

Cheering to Continue
Amidst the music and dancing. Bob Maners and his fellow cheer leaders will be present to keep the thought of the big game first in mind.
“School spirit is more important than it seems, so let’s show our spirit and attend the Trojan Hop tomorrow,” ASSC Student Body President Warren Clenden-ing said.
“I hope everyone will be there Friday and will have a lot of fun,” Harry Nelson, student activities adviser, added.
After Hill makes his appearance, the rally will move over to the PE building where the footballers will hear their last cheering before running out on the Coliseum turf Saturday.

“Big Jim” can transmit operational messages in Morse code or teletypewriter signals to all Navy ships, even submerged submarines, on the seven seas. It is non-jammable except by an enemy transmitter of equal power. * * * SACRAMENTO, Nov. 18—
