“We have students lice. who. over a period of years. have accumulated shortages of .up to 50 grade points and would be e\-I>elled under the n°w rules." tie said. "However, the system is not retroactive and those students will be r tained as long as they maintain a C average."

Patmore remarked that the system must lm applied for at least two vears lv»fore ¡1 laconics fully operative, but the general impression of the administration and faculty now is that it is a "good, suitable method of handling the poor-grade problem.”
Also noted by Patmore was a decided improvement in student attitudes toward learning. "The faculty seems to feel col-'ectively that students are working harder than they did under the old grade system.” lie said.
No lifted Seen
Formerly, students were placed on probation when their grade point average dinped below 1.5.
No appreciable effect of the scholarship system on the total number of persons who app'ied for admission for this semester was seen by Herman J. Sheffield. director of admissions.
"The group entering in February was better prepared for university work than the class of last Septemlier." he remarked. “And the entering croup last September was as well prepared as any we’ve had.”
Troy Camp Jobs Open
Applications for jobs as counselors al this year's Troy Camp may be picked up today in the ASSC office. 21 5 SI'. Approximately 25 positions are open, and alternates will be selected.
Troy Camp is an SC-snonsored summer camp for underprivileged children of both sexes, hel 1 at Camp Buekhorn in Idylwi'd near the end of the summer recess. Head counselor this year will be Abe Somer.

“Talks as familiarly ol roaring lions
As maids of thirteen do of punpydogs!" Shakespeare
Like the King John of the Shakespearean stage, the men ol Sigma Alpha Kpsilon can boast of "roaring lions" as an everyday occurrence, lor Alpha, a livc-month. 50-pound, female Masai lion cub. is the household p°t of nearly Hu fraternity men.
The ¡>350 pledge project was purchased at the Nature's Heaven at 1000 Oaks, a place famous lor renting wild animals to tiie movies and television.
I ps Food Bill
The female cub eats three pounds of meat per day and will be 450 pounds lully developed.
Jim Sweet, oflicial “lion-tamer." said that ‘Alpha enjoys horsemen t. eggs and even her vitamins but the only thing we object to in her diet is when she chews on the mattresses and television cords.”
"However." he continued, “she is completely housebroken."
Bill Ring. SAE president, said that “Alpha sleeps in the rooms with her "brothers” and awakes them on schedule by either pulling the covers or licking their faces."
She’s Harmless, Rut—
Both men issued a warning to prospective prowlers that ihe lion cub will not hurt anyone unless a stranger touches her without the permission of an on-looking brother.
“Since female Masai lions do the hunting in ihe family." Sweet .said. "Alpha plays for hours around the oalm tree in back of the house. She runs throughout the house and the yard but will stop when she reaches the curb since she has been taught not to 1 go into the street.”
“When she grows too big — 150 nounds or more we will give her back to the Heaven and receive S125 plus a new lion cub." j he concluded.
TV Cat Man In this manner, a new tradition has been born and. according to Ring, will continue.
Alpha has been on many television and radio shows, including Monitor. Al Jarvis, and others. and she will also eventually be in movies. Sweet '.aid.
Since 4 p.m. :s her regular feeding time, both men sa’d that everybody ^sj>eciallv "iris is
invited to watch the 50-pound ! cub devour three pounds of' hor^emea 1.
Nature's Heaven told the pledges that they should not teach Alpha too mam tricks because it is h^r natural disposition to be independent, although she is the third generation including mother and grandmother—to be held in captivity.

Former Dean Urges
Gradual Integration
Race relations in the U.S. are improving—but at a very slow rate, it was reported Friday by Dr. Emery Bo-gardus in a free public lecture at the YWCA on race problems.
Chief factor in the improvement is ‘increased communication with racial groups ----
based on development of inter-cultural education and of mutual good will," he explained.
Such a policy, he added, mu-t tie the focal point in any U. S. campaign for further improvement.

The Daily Trojan won second place and ¡>250 in the tenth annual college newspaper traffic contest for its safety campaign i prior to the Christmas holidays last year.
This announcement, made by | James S. Kemper, chairman of Lumbermens and affiliated Kemper group companies, cited the ¡ University of Illinois' Daily II-| lini as the recipients of a ¡>500 first prize check.
Jerry Burns, editor of the Daily Trojan, indicated surprise in winning second p'ace duo to the sacrifices made in the campa gn because of the Pacilic Coast Conference controversy going on at that time .
He said. "Though the prize money is rewarding, our primary interest in the campaign was to save lives."
Working in conjunction with the Los Angeles Police Department and other safety agencies in the city the paper's campaign covered such subjects as the value of safety belts, the effect of alcohol on driving, driver training courses, a review of new California speed and driving laws, back seat drivers and proper freeway driving habits.

Immediate Reactions
“Immediate reactions were what we wanted.” said Dr. Bo-gardus, “and we did not want [»copie to think or rationalize, but rather to record their very first feelings about the racial or national group.”
He described the “Racial Distance Score." a measure of the races to which the jieople felt j 'vers closest in 1926. 1936 and 1956, and stressed the changes in reactions and general attitudes over the 30 years.
Situation Improving Although the situation is improving, Dr. Bogardus emphasized the slowness of the change. s Also, relations are better with reference to certain races and nationalities with other groups, conditions are worse.
The total situation, however, reveals a brighter picture.
