as editor lor 1952. Jansen gained the right to speak when Dick Van Laanan, veterans representative, allowed him to talk in behalf of Van Laanan’s motion requesting the newly reorganized Publications Board to review Harper’s appointment.
Harper replied to the charges levelled at him and the Senate vindicated the El Rod editor with only two dissenting votes—those of John F. Bradley and Van Laanen.
Only If Wise
Jansen said that the resolution before the Senate called for the removal of the present El Rod editor only if it were deemed wise by the ASSC Senate, and only if the Board of Publications considered it advisable.
Basing his attack primarily on a comparison of the 1951 El Rodeo with the 1950 Southern Campus of UCLA, which won an all-American rating, Jansen sought to bring about a change in the editorship of the SC publication.
In his verbal blast at the El Rod, Jansen talked about everything from printing, binding, and photographic specifications to methods of selection and applicants for the post last spring.
Explains Charges Harper won over his Senate colleagues with a straightforward, point-by-point explanation of the charges made against him.
He presented his budget for 1952, noting a cut in the appropriations for the new yearbook. He described the layout of the 1952 edition and related the progress made to date.
Harper, in describing the 1951 edition, said that printers told him it was the finest yearbook SC had published since 1939. The 1939 El Rod was the last to win an all-American rating.
Harper further said that it would be impossible foi a new editor to take over his job at present and (Continued on Page 4)

Trovet Member Drive Extended; More Than 800 Signups So Far
“The Trovet Membership drive has netted well over 800 memberships which is exceeded only by -the membership for the Fall semester of 1948,” said Ben Hoogasian, chairman of the drive.
Hoogasian has extended the official drive period, which was originally planned to end today, to the first part of next week. He feels that many veterans would like to join Trovets and have been unable to do so since the beginning of the drive Monday.
The memberships came in steadily and he feels that the membership will continue to soar if the drive is extended into next week.
The Membership booth will be moved from the north comer of the Student Union to the front of the Annex on Monday, and to the front of the Engineering building on Tuesday.
“This movement will make It easier for engineers who have not paid their dues to do so on Tuesday. and to facilitate the joining of those veterans who have most of

fieir classes in that part of the ?mpus.” Hoogasian said.
The cost of membership for one
semester is 50 cents, and is extended to any Allied veteran. Memberships must be renewed each semester.
“Trovets should have the support of every SC veteran,” so we will have united front to carry out our program,” said Andy Weber, Trovet president.
Services performed by the Trovets include expediting the delivery of subsistence checks, arranging Trovet social events, and aiding veterans with their university problems.
“Delay in the delivery of subsistence check is extremely critical this year because many veterans, need their subsistence checks immediately to eat and remain in school,” Weber said.
Several veterans who have not ro^eived their subsistance checks have been forced to borrow money to live on until these checks arrive he said. “In some instances these veterans are paying interests of 6 per cent or more. Borrowing money and paying exhorbitant rates of interest are disasterous to the veteran’s education.”
