Six Sites Given For Footprints
By GARRY SHORT
Six ideas to where to move the All-American footprints were flying high in the air last week as Skull and Dagger continued its light to have the cement plaques moved from their present obscure location by the veteran's building to a spot closer to ihe heart of campus.
The six new location ideas are:
1 —On one of the islands in University Ave.
2—Around	the fountain in Alumni Park between the Administration Building and the Libran*
3—In	Heritage Hall, when it is completed.
4 By Cromwell Field.
5—In «he walkway in front of the Physical Education Building.
6 Around Tommy Trojan.
Tommy Most Popular
The most popular of the six ideas is the last one — around j Tommy Trojan — according to Don Simonian, worthy grand master of Skull and Dagger. ! mens’ honorary.
“In our original plan, we thought one of the islands could be adapted." Simonian said, j imensions were perfect for four of the 2’2 ft. plaques in line with a five foot aisle down the center of the strip. And the location was right in the middle of campus, too.”
How ever. Skull and Dagger j began to give it more thought. And they found quite a few disadvantages in this plan: tl) i When University Ave. is grassed-in. the plaques might have to be j removed again and <2i there is no tie-in between the cement j footprints and the islands.
Signify SC Spirit
“Then the idea of sinking them in the triangle around Tommy Trojan came up.” Simonian continued. “We figured tTiev would fit in beautifully with the bronze statue. Tommy signifies SC spirit and these shrines do too."
'rho disadvantage in thi« Tommy Trojan plan, according to the 24-year-old president who also works in the Athletic News Service office, is that it might throw the landscaping off if

. . . every sirftjle toe they removed the bush forming the triangle around the statue, i “I don’t think we need to worry about any paint that might be thrown on the statue harm- j ing the plaques." Simonian said. | “I’m sure they could be treated with the same stuff they put i on Tommy Trojan to protect it 1 against pranksters.”
Additions Planned Currently there are 21 foot- ; prints. And Skull and Dagger; plans to add those of Jon Ar-1 nett, Pat Cannamela. Frank Gif-j ford, Howard Jones and Willis O. j Hunter, as well as those of Bryce Taylor, Troy's first all-American. 1 when the shrines are moved.
Joe Barbato, manager of Phelps Terkel mens’ store, told I the Daily Trojan last week that j he favors the idea of putting

the shrines around Tommy Trojan.
It was Barbato who first started having Troy’s all-Americans put their footprints in wet cement years ago when his store was located where the veterans office is now.
To Discuss Ideas
In regard to the other ideas that have come up, Simonian says that each one of them have possibilities and will definitely be discussed by Skull and Dagger.
“And we welcome any other suggestions that SC students might have concerning a new location.” Simonian added. “If we get a lot of student and administration support behind us, we could have the project completely moved and brought up to date by the beginning of the 1957 football season,” he concluded.

Noon Talk Subject to be TopHumorist
Stephen Leacock, much-quoted Canadian humorist, and some of his books will be discussed todav by Dr. Burton O. Kurth, instructor in English, as a part of the English department’s weekly noon readings in 129 FH.
“Leacock is one of the most humorous writers who ever lived,” said Kurth.
Kurth. a specialist on the Renaissance and Milton, has taught at SC for two years. Leacock's books include “Literary Lapses,” “Nonsense Novels” and “College Dayi,” which contain “exaggerated humor, parodies of people and acid comments on Oxford University,” according to Kurth.
A Stephen Leacock Medal is awarded annually to the best Canadian humorous writing.
“A more dignified side of Leacock's life was seen in his position at McGill University as professor of economics and political science,” Kurth said.
Concerto for Chamber Orchestra (24 players) by Dr. Ernest j Kanitz, professor of composition j in the School of Music, will have its world premiere March 30 at I the University of Redlands or- J chest ra symposium.
Dr. Kanitz, who is one of the ! busiest composers at SC, recent- j ly was commissioned by the mu- I sic faculty of the University of North Carolina Women’s Col- j lege at Greensboro to write Concertino for Five Players. This composition for clarinet, violin, I viola, double bass and piano I was played March 13 at the 14th i annual Festival of the Arts at Greensboro.
Dean George W. Marquis wrote Dr. Kanitz after the concert: “You cannot imagine how wonderfully your composition was received at our contemporary concert. I am only sorry that you could not have been with us to receive the applause. It is sincerely a wonderful piece of music, and your slow movement had the audience in raptures—literally.
“The performers had such fun playing it and liked it so well that they are performing it again on television. I don't have a favorite movement because it flows so nicely into each movement. Our pianist was impressed with the fact that you made each instrument ‘sound’ and the whole piece was so effortless.”
BEAR, SKELETON SOUGHT BY SCULPTURE TEACHER
Where’s John?
Any skeletons walking around campus lately?
Skeleton John, the niascot of the sculpture department .has disappeared. Sadly enough he has been gone since last Halloween.
John had hung peacefully on a rack in a corner of the sculpture studio for 15 years. Suddenly that corner was empty—John had been stolen!
Strangely enough, too, John’s head, which had been removed for minor repairs, was also gone from instructor Merrell Gage’s office.
Gage, an instructor Ln sculpture at SC since 1923, said:
“I am very disturbed over the loss of John. He was very necessary in teaching anatomy to my sculpturing students. Both I and my students miss him ^ ery much. Besides that, he was w orth S170.”
The professor, who was the sculptor in “The Face of Lincoln” which won the 1955 short subject Academy Award, also said that he couldn’t understand how John got out of the locked studio, since only instructors have keys.
He added that a 75-pound limestone bear also had been taken from the front of his studio during the weekend after the first SC-UCLA basketbaL* game.
The bear was made by a Trojan as her senior project eight years ago.
Gage put the bear outside last fall when his studio moved to its new location at 914 West 34th Place.
Treasurer Tells IFC Expenses
Curiosity of Americans Praised by German
By RON CARPOL
“We never run out of money,” stated John Berger, IFC treasurer, as activities coincide with our treasury.”
The IFC. which receives no budget from the university, depends solely upon the dues that each participating member must pay. Each fraternity that belongs is required to pay $100 per year for membership.
“The only other way that we raise money," Berger said, “is from fines for missing meetings.”
Pays IFC Head
“Most of the money from our $3300 dues is given to the university for the partial salary of the IFC Coordinator Larry Courtney. This comes to about $1600.”
Rushing is another big expense of the organization, as the rush program cost the IFC ap-proximatelv $800 last year.
The Idyllwrild Conference recently was given $280 and the remainder of the money is easily taken up by some of the other expenses the IFC secretarial staff must also be paid.
The money left at the end nf the year is spent for the IFC formal, which w*as held at the Beverly Hills Hotel last year.
The main advantaee of IFC membership, is that through the council they have a voice in the university.
“Such a living intellectual1 curiosity there is in America,” stated Professor Fritz-Joachim von Rintelen. visiting SC from the University of Mainz.
“I am glad to have found this i here, and I am also impressed | by the immensity and beauty in America and the overwhelming friendliness and hospitality of Americans toward me here," he added.
SC students impressed Pro-; fessor von Rintelen with their healthy, uncomplicated freshness.
Professor von Rintelen is a visiting professor of philosophyj and education from the University of Mainz, who will deliver a forum lecture in Bowne Hall. School of Philosophy, at 4:15 ; tomorrow concerning the exis-

Larry Lewis, engine ering school president, said. “We expect about 250 couples at the dance to witness the presentation of a trophy to the queen of engineering and the selection of the outstanding engineering faculty member for the year.” Lewis said that the price of tickets is $250 and that they will be on sale al the Engineering Building. The Carroll Wax orchestra will play for dancing. Other events of the 10th an-
nual Engineering Week outlined by Lewis include queen selection. finals of a beard growing contest, open house and a picnic.

tentialism of Martin Hedegger.
At the University of Mainz he lectures about contemporary German philosophies and conducts a seminar on life and values.
Possessing a doctor of philos- j ophy degree from the University of Munich. Dr. von Rintelen also has honorary doctorates in art and literature. A member of the board of directors of the International Federation of Philosophical Sciences, he 1™S had twelve books published in German.
Three of the most important works are “Development of Values in European History,” “Philosophy of Finite: Criticism of Existentialism,” and a book on Goethe.
Ousted by Nazis
Dismissed from the University of Munich during World War II, Dr. von Rintelin is also well-acquainted with the policies of the Nazis. He was dismissed because he refused to join the Nazi Party.
The philosophy of values is his main specialty. In discussing tbe value of existentialism and Martin Heidegger, he stated, “Existentialism has a great influence in all wars. It comes from Germany and France.
“Heidegger’s existentialism is an especially deep analysis of the feeling of our times. It is a consequence of the catastro-phies of World War II.” Revolutionary Philosophy
"Therefore,” Professor von Rintelen commented, “It is a very revolutionary philosophy and has opened new' points of view which were previously unknown.”
“Completely opposed to Marxism, it must, however, be confronted. even though we are not existentialists,” he concluded, i

B. K. Culver,
Dir. Deferred Tuition
By JIM BYLIN
Senator Walt Williams and Gary Widell, independent students representative, declared late last Friday that they're going to fight to have the NCA resolution against discriminatory clauses in fraternities and sororities referred directly to the student body.
Last Wednesday the ASSC Senate vetoed the resolution calling for the eventual elimina- ■ tion of discrimination in student J social organizations by a roll call of 23-7.
“If our Senate claims to be a representative body, which it ( does, then there should be no j objection to this idea of finding out the student’s feelings.” Wil- j liams declared concerning introducing a referendum of W ednes-day’s meeting.
Seek Student Opinion
The resolution would be referred to the student body for their “opinions, suggestions and remarks” on the NSA plan.
“The method for this procedure will be to circulate copies of the resolution to the constituent bodies ^presented in the
Senate, all campus clubs and groups and in general the entire student population,” Widell said.
Their stand w as also strengthened by a resolution passed Thursday night by the SC Presbyterians on Campus stating approval of the NSA report and that they “deplore the action of the ASSC Senate concerning those passages in the NSA report which deal with discrimination in campus groups.”
Presbyterians Voice Opinion
"We petition the ASSC Senate to reconsider the action which we deem undemocratic and unchristian.” the Presbyterian group unanimously voiced in their draft.
The National Student Association resolution yi issue claims that “clauses that restrict membership on the basis of race, creed, color, religion, national origin or political belief in student social organizations in institutions of higher education are injurious to the Individual affected . . . and detrimental to the welfare of a democratic society.”
It contends that “no incoming j
group should be allowed on campus which contains in its 'constitution and or by-laws and or ritual discriminatory i clauses with regard to race, religion. creed, political belief or i national origin."
NSA believes that the institution should seek the elimination of "such discriminatory practices as rapidly as possible.” Education and legislation are emphasized by NSA as the media to remove discriminatory clauses and for the institution to work through the local chapters w'hen it exists in a national organization.
Senators Voice Opposition Senators Johnny Johnson and Clunie Denholm led the vocal opposition to the NSA resolution at the last Senate meeting, charging that it infringed on the right of free association. They argued that the plan was ideally sound in the long run, but that the method of attaining it was wrong.
