Searles Gives Progress Definition In Philosophy Forum Talk Today
Dr. Herbert L. Searles, professor of philosophy, will attempt to define “progress” in his talk “Problem of Progress” at 4:15 p. m. today in Bowne hall.
The talk is part of the weekly Philosophy forum.
In defining progress. Dr. Searles says there is the simple meaning of the word. “That of movement forward toward some goal in space and time, or toward some real or ideal goal of achievement or effort. In the sense we are all believers in progress no matter what our theory of history or society.”
Advance of Man “Or, if we examine the larger canvas of historical events, say from the beginning of recorded history, we can with confidence say that we observe evidence of increase in knowledge of man the world and society; of the liberation of man from ancient evils of serfdom, slavery and tyranny; an increased life expectancy in at least some
parts of the world; more leisure from dfudgery; wider satisfaction of elementary human needs; in a word tiie availability to .larger numbers of people of fhe material and cultural resources of civilization.” “We may Conclude on the basis of these evidences that progress has occurred, said Dr. Searles.
Obstacles “Even on the basis of this relatively limited concept and criterion of progress, we find that our limited experience of advance is never in a straight line toward our goal, b it is hindered by opposing forces and impeded by plateaus and depressions.”
“If we take note of advance in some phases of moral, political, social. religious, aesthetic, economic, or international affairs, we must admit with equal honesty, deterioration in others,” according to Searles.
“Doubtless, our technological civilization has given many people more leisure from drudgery but has it
cultivated in us the wisdom to use it for greater self-realization, or for creative social purposes.”
Practical Knowledge Needed
“It is true that we are educating more people than ever before, but are we not overemphasizing the practical, which brings more immediate and greater economic rewards to the neglect of the theoretical and the ethical. This should provide the foundation for scientific advance and the guidance for national, political, and international justice and world understanding,” Searles added.
“Is our dependence' on push-but-tons and gadgets leading to biological regression? Is our dependence on atomic power making us arrq-gant? Is our satisfaction with our form of government making us unsympathetic to all others which differ from ours, and insensitive to the political aspirations of those with whom we disagree?” asks Dr. Searles.

New Board Takes Control of UCLA Daily Newspaper
UCLA's Daily Bruin, which has been controlled by a controversial Daily Bruin Advisory board, was brought under administration of the Publications board last week.
The Westwood daily was regulated last year by the DB Advisory board, a body whose policies proved controversial on the UCLA campus.
Two faculty members are included in the new Publications board, one a non voting member. The board selects editorial staffs of four UCLA publications — Daily Bruin, Southern Campus yearbook. Campus Spotlight magazine, and Scon humor magazine.
Officials from two large concerns are on campus today to conduct personnel interviews through the SC Bureau of Employment.
Executives from the J. C. Penney company will interview today only, while an official of the Food Machinery and Chemical corporation will establish contacts today and interview tomorrow.
Penney's will interview February men graduates ln retailing and j allied fields who are interested in that company's training program. Men interested must be under 28. Employment will be in the local area.
Interviewing all day will be Cy Wilcox of New York, head of the employment division, personnel department of J. C. Penney, and Raymond L Graham, manager of Penney's Inglew'ood store.
Appointments may be arranged at the Employment bureau. 3462 University avenue.
The Food Machinery and Chemical corporation of San Jose will be represented on campus today and | tomorrow by W. W. Bolton, the i firm's administrative assistant of i
industrial relations. Bolton will show a film on his organization’s activities this afternoon at 3 in 226 Founders hall.

Furnishes Judges School1 of Music
Two members of the School of Music faculty have been named to the committee of judges for the competition in the performance of the Art song to be sponsored by the Southern California Chamber Music society and "Evenings on the Roof,”
Dr. Charles C. Hirt and Frans Hoffmnn, both veteran leaders in the local music scene, will act as judges for the contest which is planned to stimulate the younger generation of singers to study and perform both classical and contemporary art songs.
Rain Today So They Say
Hauling out his size 12 rain boots, and readying his trusty skis, the United Press weatherman forecast:
“Southern California—occasional rain in the north and west today. Few scattered showers in the northern interior. Snow in the mountains above 5000 feet. Strong winds in the mountains and northern in terior. Cooler today.
Los Angeles and vicinity—occasional rain today. Strong winds in the northern portion. Warmer tonight in the northern portion.”
We at the Daily Trojan think this means it will rain today. Whether we have interpreted this forecast correctly will only become known today.
If you find water splashing in your face as you walk down the street then you can appreciate the shrewd, clever, ingenious talent which puts out the DT.
If not . . . Well, don’t you appreciate the sunshine?

SC Hosts Six Touring Japanese Educators
SC is acting a? ho6t to six delegates from Japan who are on a nation-wide tour studying physical education methods of U.S. schools.
The Japanese guests are Dr. Hajime Urmura. chief of school health section. Fukuoaka prefecture; Dr. Kenzo Murakami, professor public health and hygiene and dean of students, Kanazawa university; Shuichi Koba. assistant professor, department of physical education, iokyo university; Yoshio Imamau-ro. dean of the college of physical education. Tokyo university; Masa-aki Muravama. professor of health and physical education. Kumamoto university; and Yoshihiko Kuri-moto, president, Nihon college of physical education.
Selected by civil information and education department under th*
direction of Army General headquarters. the six delegates arrived by airplane Sept. 2.
Traveling to the East Coast, they visited colleges and universities where they studied school systems and observed classes in physical education.
All six delegates r. greed they were amazed to find such extensive facilities and equipment for physical education departments. They were surprised to see the number of swimming pools and the large gymnasiums located in the colleges and universities.
Dean Imamuro said. “We have learned n great deal in our U.S. tour and plan to use your physical education system in our colleges and universities. ’
Today thc si* delegates visit Los
Angeles public schools and Friday they will be guests of UCLA. They will attend the SC-UCLA game Saturday and leave for the University of California afterward.
This will be the third football game the delegates have seen in the U.S. When asked what they thought of American football. Professor Koba, speaking for the group, said:
“In Japan we play rugby, which is different from the colorful game of football. In football they substitute but in rugby it is only when a man is hurt too bad to play that he can be carried out and no one will take his place.”
According to Professor Koba. bands do not play at the rugby games because the people would think it was a festival instead of a sporting event.
“Only physical education majors play in the game, which is very serious, and no outsiders take part in the activity,” said Koba.
Dr. Elinor Metheny, professor of physical education, is hostess during the delegates’ visit. Dr. Metheny was employed by the State department after the war and sent to Japan in 1947 to help set up a physical education program for Japanese schools.
Physical education is a new program in Japan. It was started after the war by American occupational forces. Before this time it was believed by the Japanese people that physical education was manual labor and should be kept out of the schools.
The delegates leave Oct. 1 for their homeland.
Uclans Threat Thwarted by TT's 'Tarpcoai
An illegibly written note concerning Tommy Trojan’s recent overcoat of canvas was found in the DT letters-to-the-editor box in the Student Union.

The scribbled correspondence was on a magazine advertisement and was signed by a UCLA fraternity. Theta Upsilon.

LAS students with ideas or suggestions on ASSC legislation are asked by the council to get in touch with LAS council members.
SC’s annual Catalina day may not materialize due to lack of transportation facilities. Charter of a ship is expensive, one estimate being $7000. Water taxis are a possibility.

Housing Aid Meet Called
Students interested in a plan to assist foreign students in securing housing facilities on campus are invited to attend a meeting this noon in the International lounge, third floor Student Union.
The project was suggested by Housing Director Eunice Messent and Mrs. Albert F. Zech. It is designed especially for students from foreign countries so that they might establish residence much easier here.
The plan was formulated by the Housing bureau in cooperation with the YMCA World Relatedness committee, headed by Emil Zalesny. This committee, composed of native and foreign-born students, will visit various housing facilities to determine their suitability for foreign students. The findings of the committee will be presented to the Housing bureau where a record will be kept for future reference.

Framed!
Daily Trojan Receives Proficiency Awards
DT editors are busy today looking for someone with a large number of picture frames.
This sudden need for a flock of frames first became evident over the w'eekend with the announcement from Detroit that the Daily Trojan had won first place in the sports-writing division of the Sigma Delta
Chi collegiate newspaper contest.
Complications really set in, however, when 18 All-American award certificates arrived in the mail from the Associated Collegiate press.
With all this evidence of superiority now on hand only the frames are needed to complete the operation. Yes. that’s the picture right now.
will be sent an interest card with his permit to register. The information gathered in these cards will be used to select a “big brother" to help interest entering students in various phases of campus life.
“We will enlist the help of mens’ service groups and college councils in this work” Mitchell said.
Up Enrollment “If SC Is to remain a large university. it is necessary that students take some responsibility in interesting high school and junior college students in the benefits derived from attending a private institution and in particular SC.” he said.
We hope to boost materially the percentage of those who receive permits to register and those who actually register at the university.” Benefits SC This program can prove to be the most beneficial activity undertaken by SC students since it has been men's orientation that has proved inadequate.
Foreman said that men interested in being “big brothers” should file a petition in 212 Student UHion and also asked for help on the orientation committee.
“It is hoped that many independent students will take this opportunity to render a much needed and valuable service to the school,'’ Foreman said.
