TROJANS-TIGERS CLASH TOMORROW
IS
College Men Find Difficulty at First; But Once Started Make Mark.
"We often hear people assert that a college education is not a benefit to the business man. They cite Carnegie and other numerous examples to prove their argument. But conditions are different in this day and age. A college education Is now a necessity to the business man,” said C. E. Cannon, manager of the sales and personnel department of the Goodyear Rubber Company, in an address to the students of the College of Commerce in chapel yesterday, at 11:40.
Cannon gave a resume of the difficulty facing the average college student. He then emphasized the value of the training that a university gives a man.
“Our company is particularly anxious to secure the services of college graduates, because ve realize that the potential power stored up in them by their previous training, will ultimately be of benefit to us. College men are not a paying proposition at the start. However, it is the confidence we have in them for their long period of training that prompts us to urge them to enter our organization.
“Once in our institution, the college man has many discouragements to confront, him. These difficulties are generally swept aside and we get along amicably.
“Yes, a college education is almost a necessity for the man entering business today. By all means get your education and supplement it with practical experience during your vacations.”
Larger Trojan For U. S. C. Makes a _____ New Epoch in History of Greater ‘U*
EPISCOPAL CLUB TO HOLD SOCIAL MEETING AT BRADY’S HOUSE
Oh Tapa, See the 0x> WJ11 Make Desperate
All Episcopalians will be pleased to learn that the Episcopal Club of the University of Southern California will hold an Informal social meeting at the home of “Bobby” Brady, 1426 West Twenty-seventh street, this evening, October 22nd. By the end of the present week a personal invitatton to attend this meeting should be in the hands of each of the 113 Episcopalians registered at U. S. C.
For the benefit of new students the raison d’etre of the club may be stated thus briefly: to further the work of the church, the spirit of friendship, and the good of U. S. C. With this three-fold purpose in mind its founders believe the club may justly take its place among the various organizations of the University. It is earnestly hoped that any students desiring further information as to the aims and purposes of the club will get in touch with any of the following officers or faculty members: "Bob” Broadwell, president; “Bobby” Brady, vice-president; Arthur Dodge, secretary; Gale Hunt, Treasurer. Faculty members include: Miss Beers, Prof. Goodnow, Prof. Nye, Prof. Wann, Miss Forrester and Miss Borthwick.
Rt. Rev. William Bertrand Stevens, lately consecrated Bishop-Coadjutor of the diocese of Los Angeles, has expressed a keen interest in the aim and work of the club and is enxious to join the founders of the organization in extending a welcome to the new Episcopalians.
All students that have been interviewed are enthusiastic over the Idea, and a large turnout is expected.
ARMORY AT EXPO PARK WILL RING WITH JOYFUL MERRIMENT AT HALLOWE’EN
Today marks a new epoch In the history making of U. 8. C.
Today the student body receives the first copy of an enlarged Trojan. The growing student body, the Increased spirit, the general enthusiasm and the perfect functioning of the staff are given as causes of the increase.
The merchants, however, are the people who are giving the larger Trojan to the student body, according to Willard Cooke, Business Manager. He says: “The advertisers have found to a certain extent that advertising In the Trojan is no longer a donation. A good many of the fellows have told advertisers that they saw the ad In the Trojan. We have made several friends in this manner. If the student body will get behind the Trojan and support nobody but Trojan advertisers we will have the merchants begging for space. That would mean a larger Trojan, unsurpassed by any college publication. It is entirely up to the students."
Marc N. Goodnow, Instructor of journalism, remarks that this is the thing he has been looking forward to for two years. He says: “The new paper is made possible by the efficient work of Mr. Cooke and his assistants."
The new Trojan will compare favorably with the other college papers In the United States. It is the same size as the Columbia Spectator and the Daily Palo Alto. Is larger than the University of Washington Daily, formerly the premier six-column paper of the Pacific Coast, and has longer columns than the Oregon Emerald.
The Trojan is now larger than it has ever been before.

PI BETA PHI FOLLOWS LEAD OF DELTA BETA TAU IN BUILDING HOME
Pi Beta Phi was unofficially reported yesterday to have under way the raising of fundB for the construction of a sorority home near the campus. This follows the lead established by Delta Tau fraternity, who were the first to announce the raising of funds for the building of a home.
The two organizations are being commended on their splendid civic and college spirit in starting a movement for the establishment of a "Greek letter row.” Many hope that within a short space of time an entire block of houses will have been built near the campus for the housing of the various Greek letter organizations.
FRIENDSHIP COUNCIL
Campus problems were discussed last evening at dinner at Hill’s. Pro fessor La Porte delivered the flrs't of a series of four problems to the stu dents. The dinner commenced at 5:30.
Pretty Oxy Tigers
By Noah Lott, Jr.
See the pretty animal. The animal is a tiger. What iR a tigert A tiger is an animal that bites and chews. See the tiger. Is the tiger pretty? Yes, the tiger is pretty. Whom does the pretty tiger belong to? f The pretty tiger belongs to Occidental. See the pretty tiger nod its head. Why does the pretty tiger nod its head ? The pretty tiger nods its head because it thinks Occidental will win. Will Occidental win? Yes, Occidental will win.
Thus ran the Occidental College Primer previous to a dark day last fall when cohorts of tho University of Southern California by hook or crook or the grace of Heaven, purloined the brute.
Children entering the portals of the Eagle Rock Institution now ask their elders where the tiger has went, to which the astonished elders shake their sage heads and say, “hush, my child, don’t ask foolish questions."
The little freshies of Occidental are hereby informed that the famous Oxy Sacred Pep Producing Tiger Is safely ensconced at U. S. C.—From all prospects the O. S. P. P. T. will remain at U. S. C.—and, as long as it remains here, the brute cannot sit on the sidelines and nod approval of an Oxy victory.
Betting at Eagle Rock this week is to the effect that the tiger will travel back across the city before the game Saturday. U. S. C. students claim that If the tiger goes back, he will be removed over the dead bodies of the Tro-

RALLY TODAY FOR BIG
CONFLICT TOMORROW
Trojans will rally today. The spirit that beats Occidental will appear in the chapel at 11:40. Preparations will be completed for the tonnual reception Saturday on Bovard Field of the fighting Tigers.
Dr. Ezra Anthony Healy, dean of the College of Theology, will address the assembly. According to Student Body President Gywnn Wilson those who in former years have heard Dean Healy’s specialties at football rallies anticipate his reappearance with glee.
The Delta Beta Tau Jazz Band is scheduled to appear with noise and music. What further plans they have will not be disclosed until their performance takes place.
T'-e spirit which has ulways made the Occidental game one of the bloodiest and most hotly contested football battles of the year will appear today as it did at the surprise rally yesterday.
Surrounded by a body guard of husky Trojans and muffled in the quilt which between rallies hides it from the gaze of its owners and former possessors the famous Occidental pep-producing tiger was displayed yesterday on the steps of the Liberal Arts building at 9:60 to the assembled student body.
Greeted by noises led by the U. 8. C. band and the Trojan squad of yell leaders the yellow and black striped sacred cat of the Oxy was displayed ln grinning glory.

Attempt To Vanquish The Guardians of Their Tiger
By Morgan B. Cox
With Charlie Dean and “Swede” Evans unable to start the game Saturday, with Johnny Leadingham slightly crippled, and Kincaid anything but In top-notch shape, the Trojan Varsity has a few handicaps to contend with before Oxy ever arrives.
That Sllm-Jim Johnny and “Hobo" Kincaid will be able to round into shape Is pretty certain, but even then with Charlie Dean and Evans sitting on the side-lines the team will bo greatly weakened, which lt cannot well afford to be.
Shifts in Line-up
To fill the holes left by these men. Coach Henderson will shift several of his regulars. As It looks now, "Dumbbell" Smith at end will be shifted Into tackle, with Toolen playing Smith’s old position, and Green on the left wing as In the Stanford fray. In the backfield Frank Lockett will bo in Dean's place, and anybody who remembers this same young gent In the last quarter last Saturday can rest assured of some good, plunging football.
Jimmy Smith at tackle will not weaken the line to any extent because the young "dumbbell" Is an old hand In this smashing berth, and was, at the time he played there, considered to be one of the sweetest tackles in Southern California. Smith's weight Is ihe only thing that haw handicapped him In this Job, but what James lacks In weight he makes up In flght.
Center of the Line Strong
The strong renter combination of last week Is still Intact. Cslland, Townsend and Axe ure a trio that are hard to stop. A wall on the defense and a battering ram when a hole hss to bo opened these galloping Infanta still have the old Jazz and battle.
It still remains a toss-up as to whether “Old Man" Beale or Johnny Boyle will start at left tackle. Both of these men are good tackles, although a little more aggressiveness wouldn’t be amiss, and are somewhat evenly matched. The only advantage one has over the other lies in the fact that Hoyle can snag passes like a demon, while llesle Is a good ground gainer on the strong tackle-around play. As lt looks now, either man Is good for the Varsity, and either, if started, will be a mainstay in his position.
What Has Oxy 7
In the meantime, what has Oxy? Defeated last week by a team that nobody thought could do lt, and defeated easily somewhat spills the dope. A new angle has been uddcd to the coming fray, for Oxy will certainly be "raring to go" when she takes the field against U. 8. C.
ln the line Powers at center is the big mainstay, with Dunlap, Jones and Corey playing good ball, but the Oxy line Is not heavy with the exception of Powers, and certainly didn’t have a (hing on the ball when they hit Whittier.
The Oxy backfield with Curtis, Hillis, and Norton, all last year’s men, Is a more evenly matched combination and are in a fair way to be almost dangorous. In other words, the Oxy team is weak compared to the Trojan machine, yet at the same time dangerous, nnd as far as we can see, for two reasons.
i Oxy Has the Fight
In the Drat place, Oxy will bo lighting mad Saturday, first, because she was easily whipped by Whittier, and second, because she would rather beat U. S. C. than eat. Oxy Is determined to do or die, survive or perish, lick or get licked, and any team with that spirit is always hard to Biiuff out.
Nothing can Illustrate that point better than tho Oxy-U. S. C. brawl held In the season of 1918. In that flght U. S. C. made 180 yards clear gain ugainst one first down for Oxy, yet Oxy won, the final score being 7-6. Oxy had the flght! This year Oxy Is hoping to duplicate a win of that order.
The second reason why Oxy is to be feared Ilea ln her Coach, Foxy Stanton. Stanton is a coach who knows modern football and can teach It to his team. That the Oxy team will have the strongest formations of any team U. S. C. will hit this season is assured.
It Is a fact that a mediocre team with fight and formations is twice as strong as a wonderful team without the formations. Oxy has the flght and Oxy has the formations, but Oxy will not win.
U. 8. C. Will Fight Oxy Coach Henderson realizes that to lose a game to a Southern CalIfornla college ruins the Trojan season, and Saturday he will send a team on the field that will have as much flght a* Oxy, but will also be a wonderful ma chine as good aa Henderson can put out.
That U. 8. C. should win is acknow edged, but whether she wins by a safe score or a close one depends on whether the team feels a little light ubovu the collar.
Tbe probable line-up will be:
HR.—Toolen (176).
R.T.—Smith (171). ll.G.—Townsend (200).
O--Calland (1«$).
LO.—Axe 41H0).
L.T.—Beale (180), Boyle (187).
L.K.—Green (176).
Q.U.—Woodward (186).
L.H.- Lockett (176).
It H- Kincaid (176).
F.U.—leadingham (140),
A. W. S. ARRANGES TO LOAN MONEY TO U. S. C. WOMEN
The A W. 8. made arrangements at the last meeting to have a loan fund for the women of U. 8. C.
According to the new plan, juniors und seniors may borrow a maximum of $60 provided the student’s undergraduate work has been completed.
The student’s personal note is given for tbe money but interest does not begin until the date of graduation.
At that time a 4% rate of interest begins and lasts until expiration of note, which Is five years.
Sophomores way borrow $10 for three months if their freshman year was spent at U. S. C.
Written application must be made to the president of the A. W. 8. or to Jenny Tridd.
all Its harrowing details the story of the strategy by which its hiding place was dlBcovered und tho midnight expedition which carried it off. He openly gave the names of the guilty men.
The tiger nodded his head In approval throughout.
Professor Harold Stonier, of the College of Commerce, spoke on Trojun traditions, as represented by the capture of the tiger.
Occidental has not yet accepted the challenge to recapture the animal.

C. ln the line Powers at center is the big mainstay, with Dunlap, Jones and Corey playing good ball, but the Oxy line Is not heavy with the exception of Powers, and certainly didn’t have a (hing on the ball when they hit Whittier. The Oxy backfield with Curtis, Hillis, and Norton, all last year’s men, Is a more evenly matched combination and are in a fair way to be almost dangorous. In other words, the Oxy team is weak compared to the Trojan machine, yet at the same time dangerous, nnd as far as we can see, for two reasons. i Oxy Has the Fight In the Drat place, Oxy will bo lighting mad Saturday, first, because she was easily whipped by Whittier, and second, because she would rather beat U. S. C. than eat. Oxy Is determined to do or die, survive or perish, lick or get licked, and any team with that spirit is always hard to Biiuff out. Nothing can Illustrate that point better than tho Oxy-U. S. C. brawl held In the season of 1918. In that flght U. S. C. made 180 yards clear gain ugainst one first down for Oxy, yet Oxy won, the final score being 7-6. Oxy had the flght! This year Oxy Is hoping to duplicate a win of that order. The second reason why Oxy is to be feared Ilea ln her Coach, Foxy Stanton. Stanton is a coach who knows modern football and can teach It to his team. That the Oxy team will have the strongest formations of any team U. S. C. will hit this season is assured. It Is a fact that a mediocre team with fight and formations is twice as strong as a wonderful team without the formations. Oxy has the flght and Oxy has the formations, but Oxy will not win. U. 8. C. Will Fight Oxy Coach Henderson realizes that to lose a game to a Southern CalIfornla college ruins the Trojan season, and Saturday he will send a team on the field that will have as much flght a* Oxy, but will also be a wonderful ma chine as good aa Henderson can put out. That U. 8. C. should win is acknow edged, but whether she wins by a safe score or a close one depends on whether the team feels a little light ubovu the collar. Tbe probable line-up will be: HR.—Toolen (176). R.T.—Smith (171). ll.G.—Townsend (200). O--Calland (1«$). LO.—Axe 41H0). L.T.—Beale (180), Boyle (187). L.K.—Green (176). Q.U.—Woodward (186). L.H.- Lockett (176). It H- Kincaid (176). F.U.—leadingham (140), A. W. S. ARRANGES TO LOAN MONEY TO U. S. C. WOMEN The A W. 8. made arrangements at the last meeting to have a loan fund for the women of U. 8. C. According to the new plan, juniors und seniors may borrow a maximum of $60 provided the student’s undergraduate work has been completed. The student’s personal note is given for tbe money but interest does not begin until the date of graduation. At that time a 4% rate of interest begins and lasts until expiration of note, which Is five years. Sophomores way borrow $10 for three months if their freshman year was spent at U. S. C. Written application must be made to the president of the A. W. 8. or to Jenny Tridd. all Its harrowing details the story of the strategy by which its hiding place was dlBcovered und tho midnight expedition which carried it off. He openly gave the names of the guilty men. The tiger nodded his head In approval throughout. Professor Harold Stonier, of the College of Commerce, spoke on Trojun traditions, as represented by the capture of the tiger. Occidental has not yet accepted the challenge to recapture the animal.
