Mere showers are forecasted today. Artist to Present Painting Views By PONCHITTA PIERCE A nationally noted serigrapher and professor of art at Immaculate Heart College in Los Angeles will present her views on the purpose of paintings at an open meeting of the Newman Guild from 1:30 to 2 p.m. Tuesday at the Newman Center, 3207 University Ave. Sister Mary Corita, I.H.M., will gear her discussion to non-artists in an attempt to help remove “blocks” which prevent people from getting to pictures. The nun-professor-artist also will bring samples of her serigraphs (color prints made by the silk-screen process and printed by the artist herself.) “Many art viewers are so blocked up with what art should be that they never really discover what art is,” she explained. Sister Corita, who feels that the language of a painting is the way in which it is put together, noted that because a picture does not look like a picture many surmise that it does not belong to the world of art. “Most confusing for some people,” she said, “is the relation between paintings that are images and paintings that are non-images.” Prints by Sister Corita have won more than 35 prizes in national and international print shows. Her silk canvases are based on biblical scenes or devotional poetry, fragments of which are frequently printed on the surfaces of her pictures. Her technique employs simple yet bold pictorial statements enhanced by bright, pure primary colors and contrasting abstract forms. Many of the nun’s serigraphs have been commis- weekly shows at 3 with a sioned by the International Graphic Arts Society, the 15.minute newscast airing from Museum of Modem Art, the Container Corporation of America, the Los Angeles County Museum, Neiman-Marcus and Reynolds Aluminum. A specialist in serigraphy, Sister Corita has had more than 70 one-man shows in museums, galleries and universities in the United States, Canada and Spain. A complete collection of her prints is in the Willis Gabriel collection in San Bernardino. sor emeritus of English, was on the stand virtually all day yesterday in Municipal Judge Kenneth L. Holaday’s court in downtown Los Angeles as a prosecution rebuttal witness in the trial of Bradley Reed Smith, 31, Hollywood book dealer, charged with selling Henry Miller’s controversial “Tropic of Cancer.” Dr. Baxter called the book “odorous” and "unhealthy.” “I know of no other work that appicaches the low level of tliis book,” Dr. Baxter testified. He was questioned by Deputy City Attorney Edward George. No Social Importance The winner of seven Emmys and the first personal winner of the Peabody award for educational television told the jury of three men and ninej women that he found no social J importance in “Tropic of Cancer.” “I’m always very much worried about censorship,” Dr. Baxter said, “but in a complex society we must live by rules.” “We can’t sell cancer cures or pornographic literature by mail,” he testified. “Society has to have a level in stano ards, and our American society grants a great deal of leeway in this regard. However, there is a line of tolerance, and this book falls below it. Comments on Shakespeare “The book is a shock,” he continued. "I would hate to see a young person meet sex in this book. It is almost clinical, and would do better in a medical text. “There is obscenity in Shakespeare," continued the authority on the Bard, "and lots of naughtiness and bawdiness, but even when Shakespeare refers women it is healthier and he _ doesn’t reduce the world to blood and pus. “I can’t find 50 lines in the whole book which seem to redeem it.” Dr. Baxter testified that Thoreau, Whitman or Emerson would not have accepted “Tropic" as characteristic of American literature. In cross-examination, Dr. Baxter engaged in a philosophical debate with Defense Attorney Mark W. Tumbleson on the idea of a man who rebels against society. “Miller used ignoble instruments to sell his tune,” Dr. Baxter said, objecting to the “four-letter mindedness” of the book.

Formation of the European Common Market is one of the greatest developments in world history, Dr. Ross N. Berkes, director of the School of International Relations, said yesterday at the first annual Trojan Women’s Day on campus. “We must relate ourselves dynamically and imaginatively to this exciting, refreshing change in Western Europe,” he told more than 250 members of the Trojan Guild who braved a rain storm to hear him and three of his faculty in a panel discussion on American foreign policy. Red Dislike The Common Market is one of the things the Communists hate most to see come into being, Dr. Berkes, moderator of the panel, said. Also on the panel were Drs. Willard A. Beling, who spok s on the Middle East; Paul E. Hadley, who spoke on Latin America; and Paul Langer. who discussed Asia policy. The caliber of American personnel in American embassies and consulates in the Middl*-East has improved so much in the past five or six years, said Dr. Beling, that he is “greatly encouraged and impressed.” The Communist penetration of Iraq in 1958 frightened that nation and swung it away from the Reds. Dr. Beling said, and improved our relations with the Arab world at the same tims. No Experience “Until four years ago the Middle East had played both sides against the middle and had had no experience with Communism, he said. “Imperialism had always come by sea. hut Communism cnme by land. Now the Commun'sts are out lawed in Egypt, Syria. Lebanon and most Middle East countries.” Speaking on A s i a, panelist Langer said Japan has solved its Communist problem despite current demonstrations against Attorney General Kennedy. He ndvised h i s audience not to take the present incidents tcm seriously. Junior Class President Dann Moss scored AMS President Gil Garcetti yesterday for using “circus techniques” in his campaign for the ASSC presidency. Moss specifically protested to Garcetti’s remarks regarding an unsigned letter circulated on campus Wednesday that supported the * i .x. junior president for the ASSC presidency. The AMS president, so far I the only declared candidate for jthe ASSC top spot, said that | Moss would have to be respon-jsible for the letter, which alleged that a political ‘ machine” would oppose Mass on the basis of “religion, personality or promises” rather than issues. Moss denied all knowledge of the letter. —Daily Trojan Photo by Frank L.

Both groups seek "new talent.” Glee Clubs Search For New Members Membership in the Trojan men’s and women’s glee clubs is now open to all interested students, directors Robert Is-gro and Royce Saltzman announced yesterday. Glee club members receive a half-unit of credit for participation and also get an all-expense paid spring tour and of-fical university blazers. Rehearsal for the clubs is scheduled this semester for Tuesdays from 7 to 8:40 p.m. and Thursdays from 3:15 to 5 p.m. Further information can be obtained by contacting 6 Widney Hall or calling Ext. 293. Especially designed for non- Control Support Garcetti asked how Moss would be able to control student government “if he can’t maintain control of his supporters.” Moss claimed yesterday that the AMS president's remarks represented just the sort of mud-slinging he said he opposed. “The one thing I have worked for the most at this uni-I vesity and that I want most to retain is my integrity,” Moss said. “When I say I don’t know | who put this letter out, I don’t know.” Moss implied that the letter had been put out by his opponents in order to discredit him I and confuse the real issues of |the campaign.

Rawdon, assistant professor of architecture, who worked AMS to Run Gripe Week Next week Trojans will hav*: an opportunity to speak for themselves during “Improve Your School Week” which is l>eing conducted under the join: sponsorship of AMS and AWS. “The purpose of this week.” as outlined in a statement jointly issued by both organizations, "is to try to encourage our fellow students to submit suggestions or objections for the improvement of USC.” Students nay voice their comments on changes in curriculum, parties on the Row, their professors, library hours and women’s lockout. Throughout the week, suggestion boxes will be located at various points on campus After AMS-AWS receive the suggestions, committees will be formed to take care of the feasible suggestions. Class Holds High School Orientation Five Trojans sponsored by the Junior Class held a two-day high school relations conference at Palm Springs High School last week to acquaint students with college life. The team, headed by Junior President Dann Moss, was made up of Robert Polis, Marcia Northrop, Bob Sangster and Bonnie Rowland. tributed nationally. The glee club was revived two years ago and has continued to grow in size and format since that time. Other activities scheduled include hospital and naval base concerts and other off-campus performances. Last year the clubs also toured Seuthern California schools. The purpose of the club is primarily to give and to receive music appreciation, copresidents Richard Kelley and Gina Quijano said. Women’s director Saltzman has been at USC since 1959, and has taught at the college level for six years. He received his masters degree in music from Northwestern University. Isgro, director of the men's club, received his masters degree from Columbia University in New York and is currently No Chance Contacted later, Garcetti -aid that he had no choice but to be responsible for material put out with his name on it, since the Elections Code specificiaJJy (makes candidates responsible for any material bearing their names. “I realize this would allow candidates from another camp to attack me by putting ojt something to hurt me,” he said. “This is possibly a flaw in the code but I believe in the long run it will discourage such practices.” Garcetti said that he was not “slinging mud” at Moss but merely renl.ving to the charges in the letter. Although he has not yet decided to run. Moss challenged Garcetti to debate the “substantial issues” of the cam- working at^USC for a doctor- paign with him as a potential ate in musical arts.

Elections Commissioner John Moyer said that very few petitions have been submitted thus far. although he expects greater returns in the last three or four days of filing next week. Petitioning, which opened on Tuesday, is scheduled to run until Feb. 16 at 5 p.m. Petitions are available in 301a SU. •Formal List’ "The formal list of candidates will be revealed at the time of the elections orientation meeting,” Moyer said. The meeting will be held on Monday, Feb. 19, at 2:30 p.m. in the Senate Chambers. All candidates or their approved proxies must be present or they will face automatic disqualification. Offices open include all major Executive Cabinet posts, ASSC Senate seats, class vice presidencies, and fic'd-of-study presidencies. Moyer said that all candidates must have a 2.5 grade average to be eligible for office. In addition, candidates for ASSC president, vice president and secretary must have studied at least two years at the university and have completed 90 units of college work by the end of this semester. 60 Units Required AMS and AWS presidential candidates also must have studied at least two years at USC but are only required to have completed 60 units. Class presidents must have been members of the classes they represent for at least one complete semester before elections. Senators and field-of-study presidents must have been enrolled in their major field a minimum of one year by the end of this semester. The program included assemblies and classroom discussion^ with sophomore and junior students, covering the theme. “The Unique Role of the University in a Democracy.” Motivation Purpose “The purpose of the assembly was to motivate big' school students to go to college and to orient them once they reach there so that they will be better prepared for the experience,’’ Moss said. Subject matter explained anc’ discussed by the Trojan group included curricula, cultural ac tivities, living groups, athlet ics, extra-curricular activities, student government and communications. Special emphasis was given to the features of the fraternity and sorority systems. Education Goal Moss sairl that the high school students were shown how college activities are coordinated within the university. “We pointed out how competition yields opportunity in leadership, cooperation, plan ning and initiative, which un der some pressure will yiel' growth of the individual," Moss said. “We believe this to be the goal of education."

Debaters Place Fifth In National Contest Two varsity debaters garnered fifth place in a national debate tournament at Harvard University in Boston last week. Michael Thorpe and Boyd Lfmon went 'indefeated in eight preliminary rounds, facing such teams as University of Florida, New York University and Naval Acgdemy. Their topic was “Re.'.olved: that labor organizations should t>e under the jurisdiction of anti-trust legislation.” Colleges from 23 states and Canada sent teams to the tournament. "The experience of the national tournament proved invaluable for Thorpe and Lemon. We felt that they surpassed our expectations,” Dr. James McBath, director of forensics, reported. On the weekend of Feb. 22, the varsity debate squad will attend the Desert Invitational in Tucson, Ariz. and the Pomona Cross-Examination Tournament.
