•First Nighter*’
“First Nighters" has bjen very popular on campuses throughout the country and we’re hoping to establish the tradition at SC,” White said.
"The idea for the affair came from members of the Senate. They felt it would help draw more students to the play."
The reception is open to everyone attending the opening night performance of "Twin Menaech-mi.” Gresting all the guests at a reception line will be members of the drama department, student officers, Dean Bernard L. Hyink, and Dr. Robert C. Gordon, counselor of men. Continuous Play Originally, the farce by Roman Playwright Titus Plautus „u . | was a continuous p]ay without
ahead in the professional anv intermissions. The SC pre-and I don t know anyone sentatioili however, has divided it into three acts: 1. Before Lunch. 2. After Lunch. 3. Later in the Day.
“Twin Menaechmi" centers around a set of twins and the confusion that arises when people confuse one for the other, while the audience tries to anticipate when the twins will meet each other face to face.
It all occurs when M'laech-mus of Syracuse, p'ayed by Peter Hayman, travels to Epidamnus to look for his brother, played by Ken Niles Jr.,.who was separated from him at an early age.
"Twin Menaechmi” will run for five nights through Saturday, Mar. 24. An additional Wednesday afternoon matinee has been scheduled for Bovard. The curtain goes up at 8:30 on tlv? evening performances and 2:30 for the matinee.

Wampus Near Death Unless Sales Spurred
I SC students will witness the j death of a tradition this week j 'inless they rally to its rescue. Wampus magazine is lit its death-throes, according to Arnold Diener, the magazine’s editor.
Unless enough copies of Wampus are sold today and tomorrow, the humor magazine, w’hlch has been a part of Trojan life for more than thirty years, will no longer appear along Univer-sltv Avenue.
In order to spur sales. Diener announced yesterday that someone buying a copy this week will be awarded a late model Chevrolet. A number appears on page 16 of each copy sold this week, the duplicate of wh'ch is nrinted on a card locked in the Wampus office.
Monday, one of these cards will he drawn and the student who possesses the magazine with that number in it will receive the car.
The winning number will be printed in Tuesday’s Daily Trojan, Diener sa’d.
“If enough sales are made this week." Diener said, "we will go ahead with the next-scheduled edition of the magazine.”
He predicted that the next edition will be the best in Wampus history. He said that it will contain “more literary work by SC students, more news concerning the Row, and more original work than any other edition."
This edition will feature a story by a member of the magazine’s staff who smuggled a tape-recorder into a sorority house; a picture story about SC the trio, Hungary, Austria, j women; and stories concerning politics this year.

He’s temporarily out because he didn't make a 2.0 grade point last semester after receiving two IWs.
He promised the Senate he'd make up the IW's before the next n>3eting. But he will have to show senators that he is now carrying the eight units required for graduate student senators before he can be reinstated.
Report Fails The Trojan Chest report of Dick McAdoo failed and was sent back to committee after considerable debate because several senators felt that their per-sonally-endorsed charity was more deserving than the others.
McAdoo's original report gave the following percentages:
Troy Camp—50 per cent YWCA—25 per cent Living War Memorial—15 per cent
World University Service—
8 per cent Community Chest—1 per cent Red Cross—1 per cent.
In the math struggle, Steve Robertson, senior class president, suggested upping the LWM to 25 per cent and cutting YW to 20 per cent and WUS to 3 per cent.
He pointed out that the funds for the scholarship of LWM are coming from the $17,000 already collected. If the contributions this year could reach LWM's $20,000 goal, the scholarship could come from yearly Interest on the invested money and not from the principle.
Syd Deem, veterans representative, at first wanted tt< raise j the LWM to 30 per cent, but finally OK'd Robertson’s proposal.
Gift for Children
Senator Carl Terzian wanted
the end both Terzian's and Miss Cooper’s amendments were defeated.
Though Robertson's readjustments were approved by the Senate, the entire Trojan Chest proposal ended hack in committee when the Senrfte voted 17 to 13 against McAdoo's report.
AMS Hassle AMS President Bob Gerst came up with three serious amendments to his group's constitution and saw two of them sail through the Senate and the third defeated.
Moves to bring Men's Judicial Council and Ball and Chain into voting membership on the AMS cabinet were passed quickly as were the additions of Projects, Special Events, and Civil Defense to the list of the standing committees.
Gerst found himself defeated, however, when he attempted to add the words “as a voting member" of the cahinet to the AMS presidency eligibility clause. The constitution now requires that the AMS leader have had experience on the cabinet.
Approve Resignation The senators approved Morris Meadow's resignation as chairman of the Committee on Recognition of Student Organizations. Applications for the post can be left in the ASSC president's box in 215 SU till next Wednesday.
Robertson’s resolution to set up a five-member committee to investigate student wages was approved. Members named were Robertson, chairman, Rudy Ve-land, Judy Green, Sue Corwin, and Ruthann Marr.

After six months’ research in Africa, India, and Pakistan, Prof. T. Walter Wallbank returned to his "Man and Civilization” class Monday with a modernized concept of the changing world, and with memo- j ries of stampeding elephants and , Bombay riots.
Professor Wallbank said the purposes of his trip were to get a first-hand picture of this changing area to present in SC’s general studies courses, to refresh his knowledge ot tropical Africa, and to bring up to date his book, "India and Pakistan in the New Asia,'' which will be published this fall.
A Rockfeller Foundation grant assisted Dr. Wallbank in pursuing his studies in India and Africa.

By the Watchblrd
It will be a case of politics within politics tonight when the Trojans for Representative Government meet In a general assembly to thrash out nominations for the coming ASSC elections.
With a big battle looming over the vice presidential bid, plus a lot of unhappiness over nominations coming from certain factions, TRG will attempt to name its candidates at the Phi Sigma Kappa house, 938 West 28th Street, starting at 1,0 p.m.
Here the Watchblrd offers his predictions on the names that will be put up tonight, followed by explanation of the rivalries involved.
President: Greg Taylor.
Vice President: Mary Laird, or both Mis« Laird and VI Jameson.
Secretary; Barbara Page.
Senators-at-large: The possibilities are Fritz Howser, Kappa Sigma; Joan Beisang. Alpha Chi Omega; Sandy Hardin, Alpha Omicron Pi; and Dotty Schaeffer, Kappa Alpha Theta: and Tom Tishner, Sigma Chi. Randy Parker. Beta Theta Pi, should get either the junior class pres-
the professor visited the new university, gave radio broadcasts, and visited Volta Dam, which makes possible the manufacture of aluminum. He also studied programs of development in the African villages.
"This once dark continent^»» been transformed by the rise of nationalism and industrialism," said Dr. Wallbank.
After a few days in l.eopold-
Chest chairman, or Senator-at-large Carl Terzian.
Some TRG members say that Taylor, as an independent, would be too easily defeated, that the party would have trouble holding solidly behind Taylor. They remember the lai'.t elections when some of the most violently antl-TRG forces on the Row supported Jerry McMahon for ASSC president rather than Murray Bring, sn Independent.
McAdoo has the advantage of being a fraternity man, but comes from the same house, Phi Sigma Kappa, as the current ASSC president. Because Row-ites fear giving one house too much power, McAdoo may have to settle for the AMS presidency, provided the constitution is changed to allow a person to hold that office although he hasn't served on the AMS Council.
The other possibility, Terzian, had been under strong TRG consideration previously but was dropped beciusa he had run against the party in the last election. But as late as last night, he was still being approached by elements of the party.
la the big battle for the vice presidency, the party is split between Senator-at-Large Mary Laird, a Pi Beta Phi, and «Chimes President Vi Jarrcson,
Karachi and the old. historic | city of Lahore. Dr. Wallbank interviewed many public figures in i idency bid or a senator-at-large these cities and gave a number I nod
