Reduce Prices
“An increase in facilities and volume with a reduction in price will encouiace the student to use ihe campus store,” said Fitz Randolph.
The bookstore officials, represented by Elton Phillips, acting l.nanciaJ vice pres’dent and Frederic W. Grayston, bookstore man-| ager. seemed receptive to the ASSC plans, said Fitz Randolph.
Senator-at-Large Mike Loshin, j an investigating committee member. said that “the bookstore officials are apparently open to a program that would increase : business and lower costs for SC students by reducing prices.” Working Together
The committee along with I Phillips and Grayston plan to I work together in achieving such a program.
At present, the bookstore pays j no overhead. Its profits, which j equal one per cent of the total ; university income, goes into a special university student fund.
Arkin and Fitz Randolph have scheduled a meeting for Monday | to develop the program further. A Senate meeting will be called on Wednesday to decide if th<! investigating committee will become permanent.
Lipid Reports To Be Given
The Seventh Deuel Conference on Lipids, in honor of the late I Dr. Harry J. Deuel Jr.. will be held al Furnace Creek Inn, Deaih Valley, today through Sunday.
Research scientists will pre-sent reports on unsaturated fatty acids, blood coagulation and fats in the blood.
Dr. Roslyn B. Alfin-Slater, re- j search biochemist in the SC j School of Medicine and a former | collaborator of Dr. Deuel, will read a research paper on the effect of safflower oil supple- i mentation on cholesierol levels.
Dr. Deuel was dean of the Graduate School at SC at the time of his death in 1956.
Grade Not Altered By Class Cutting
Professors are not required by the university to reduce the grade of a student because of excessive absences, although they are expected to report these absences to the registrar, Registrar Howard Patmore reiterated today.
Misconceptions on the part of some university students have led them to believe i~
, that grades are automatically reduced because of absences that exceed the number of course unit*.
In a letter to ihe Daily Tro-an. one student wrote that "ail instructors are reouired to dow ngrade any student v ho misses as many classes as that class me?is per week. This an absolute disgrace to the student.”
Memo to Faculty
In a memorandum to tl.f faulty, Patmore stated that the Committee on Student Scholarship Standards requires that an undergraduate student, whose consecutive absences from a class exceed the number of class meetings per week, shall oe reported immediately to the registrar.
The registrar will check 1he record of the absentee and refer the report to the dean of stu-ednts or the office of veteran affairs for investigation.
Student Attendance
“Students are expected to attend all the exercises of the courses for which they are registered. However there is no university policy or rule which requires an instructor to reduce the grade of a student because of absences,’’ Patmore said.
Absence from several meetings i of a course will operate to limit ! a student's achievement though, and. in most cases, will result in ! a lower grade the registrar explained.
The university does require that the professor inform his j students in advance if he intends | to use classroom attendance in arriving at a final grade.
Debate Teams To Participate In Tournament
Three SC debate teams will participate in the Claremont Men's College Debate Tournament to be held at Claremont College tomorrow.
Lee Granell, assistant varsity coach, will accompany the Trojans. Listed as paired teams are Alan Fox and Paul Sonnenburg; Burt Pines and Ted Jones; and Helen Sakiyama and Bobbi Fur-buss.
Debate director Dr. James H. McBath says it is certain that SC speakers are in for stiff competition as Claremont traditionally hosts the top flight debate schools in Southern California.
Missing from the SC ranks are recent third-placers from the Northwestern tournament, Dave Allswang and John Fraser, who are catching up on studies missed while in Evanston last week.

Pictures of the Japanese invasion of China will be shown loday by a man who roamed China for 20 years producing war films which Time magazine called “the most gruesome of all time.”
George Krain. Russian-born photographer, will show some of the slides which gained him the renuiation as a “master of sensational newsreel coverage.” today at 12:30 p.m. in the Cinema Building.
Krain. who is presently employed by the University Photo Shop, served as a correspondent and staff cameraman for Universal Newsreel, a branch of the Chicago Dailv News, from 1927 until the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1931.
ItijI Lloyd Policy
Krain’s exploits proved so dar-inc that Universal took out a $10.000 insurance policy for him with Lloyd's of London at a cost of S900 a month.
From 1922-1941 Karin traveled through China amid famines, fires, explosions, shootings and bombings. He was stranded in flood waters and captured by bandits. He lost money, clothing, cameras, cars and even pieces of
his anatomy.
"The newsreel cameraman leads the most thrilling life of am a^’isan today." claims Krain. and his o"n experiences are proof of this

Russia, the son of a czarist army !officer. Upon his graduation from I Vladivostok College in 1916, he joined his father's regiment to fight the Germans at the front lines for two years.
He was held captive in Petro-grad for 10 days during 1he phase of the communist revolt known as the “Bloodless Revolution.” He was able to escape and return to the front.
Following the Treaty of Brest Litovsk in 1918, Krain became engaged in civil war against the communists, fighting through Siberia to Vladivostok.
Learns to Photograph
He received his first experience in photography in Vladivostok, where he joined the American YMCA and learned to take motion pictures.
Krain remained there with his wife until the arrival of the Red Army forced him to escape over the mountains to China and made his way to Shanghai.
While in China, Krain covered sensational events like the ; Sino-Japanese War of 1932.
Kupe of Nanking
Risking his life. Krain took i pictures during the notorious j “Rape of Nanking.” Because of this, he was hunted by the Japa- ! nese. but was able to enter the j United States by means of a SDecial visa.
He traveled across the country and served as a special photographer for the various branches of the armed forces, lie gave special orientation lectures on China to military personnel.
In 1946. Krain became a naturalized citizen and began doing free-lance photography. He has ¡been at SC eight years.
he reached the hospital where he is employed.
“Although I expect to be up and about soon, I think I may have to use crutches,” he said.
He reported that he had found no broken bones, however, and he expected the hospital’s examination to turn out “routinely.” Deep Chin Gash
Held’s injury was a deep gash on the chin.
Neither Held nor Favela was held yesterday, and the police department did not sav what action, if any. will be taken toward either of the drivers.
Witnesses, who happened on the scene of the accident on their way to school, did not say whether there were any other persons in either of the two damaged vehicles.
Held was driving a black 1958 Thunderbird and Dr. Favela's car was a 1955 2 - tone brown Ford Fairlane.
