This was one of the main points brought out by Sumner Ives, in a speech to a Founders Hall audience yesterday.

He feels that the reasons have been the “preservation of a respect for classical learning which, for so long a time, made a knowledge of Latin the mark of an educated man, and the failure of the language people themselves to apply themselves to useful and productive tasks.” The total study of language is divided into several branches, structural linguistics, dialectology, semantics, and rhetoric, he said. Defines Linguistics Structural linguistics deals with the forms of language, with the tangible symbols tha convy meaning and the rules which describe their combination into actual utterances.

Tomorrow morning at sic a bus load of Trojans and Tro-janes will head south of the border for a day in old Mexico. The travelers will make their first stop at San Juan Capistrano for breakfast and a tour through the mission. The crumbling ruins of the old religious edifice make excellent settings for picture-taking. Visitors can even count the “returning swallows.” . * The group will then proceed to Old San Diego where they will view Ramona’s marriage place, and the old San Diego Mission. Ramona was the heroine of the Helen Hunt Jackson novel. “Ramona.” She was an acKial person who lived in. the early days of California. Lunch will be eaten at the San Diego Zoo. The zoo is supposedly the best zoo west of the Mississippi River. The next stop will be Tijuana where the group will break up into small packs or go their separate ways for an afternoon of [ sightseeing. The travelers will return by way of the Naval Repair Base ! and Training Center, Sunset ! Cliffs and La Jolla. This is an 1 excellent opportunity for out-of-state students and faculty to see ! some of the scenic wonders of i California and Mexico. Student Gets Ph D From Local Dump Bill McGrath, 38 , h i g h school teacher ami former Navy commander, got his Ph. D in a dump. Few people can make that statement. He was preparing to move from a rooming house at l(Hi2 W. 35th St., and put all his valuable papers — including Navy Discharge and Reserve certificates, his Ph.D., and deeds and Escrow papers to five parcels of proprety valued in excess of $250,000 — in a cardboard box. His landlady threw the en-. tire collection into the trash Vkhach city rubbish collectors removed a half hour before McGrath discovered the mistake. Bruce Coucliman, 21, and SC architecture student living at the same rooming house, hopped on his motorcycle and located the trash truck. “Can’t unload trash in the street,“ was the city rubbish collectors reply. Bruce followed the truck for two hours while McGrath got help. Two more students were added to the chase and followed the truck more than 12 miles to Griffith Park. Rubbish officials took pains to empty the truck in a cleared area and the quartet “dug in” with forks and shovels. McGrath was finally able to recover about nine-teriths of the documents and a third of his bills and receipts. Professor Predicts Growth in L. A. City's Population “Population of 10.300.000 bv 1975 . . . “Total personal income likely to increase from 120 to 148 per cent during the same 17 year period . . . “Billions of additional dollars being spent by the public for products and services currently unknown to the average consumer .. . “A 71 per cent increase in automobiles on the streets—4,800,-000 in 1975 compared to 2,800,-000.” These are some of the optimistic forecasts for the Los Angeles metropolitan area made in a study undertaken by Dr. Robert R. Dockson, professor of marketing in SC’s School of Commerce. Deliberately Conservative “The projections might appear unduly optimistic,” he observes. “However, when compared to past performances, they are deliberately conservative. “In my opinion,” he adds, “the Los Angeles area is well on its* way to becoming the number one metropolis of the world. New Development According to the study, migra- j tion will boost population to a total of 7,700,000 by 1965, 8,-700.000 by 1970, and 10.300.000 by 1975. A large part of this increase will be absorbed by those sections of the metropolitan area which have the greatest amount of undeveloped land. This includes East San Gabriel Valley, ! North Los Angeles County, West San Fernando Valley and Orange County. The study indicates that since 1950 personal income in the Los Angeles area has expanded at the rate of approximately two per cent for each one per cent change in gross national product, and business activity in the met-ea before taxes is expected to accelerate at an even faster rate. Average personal income for residents of the Los Angeles area before taxes is exepcted to reach from $3300 to $3800 by 1975. This compares with the 1957 level of approximately $2500. The report points out that a rise in income will mean more money available for spending and thus increased sales of durables, non-durables and services. Officiai Notice Students registered for the six week session who have deferred tuition accounts are reminded that the final payments are due July 14th. Payments made after July 14th will be subject to the $5.00 late payment fee unless an extension has been granted by the Office of Deferred Tuition. Payments may be made in person at the Office of the Bursar, or checks and money orders may be mailed, marked to the attention of the Bursar’s Office. William D.
