"FROSH” TO DANCE BEFORE BIG BONFIRE IN NIGHTIES
Pat Milliken to Assist with Many Yells to be Indulged in by Student j Body; Frosh Will Keep Caps Whole Year.
Two hundred freshmen clad in their nighties. Oh, girls, can you imagine such a thing? However, you won’t have to use your imagination, as the boys will actually be there, and in the condition just mentioned.
Bovard field is the place, Thursday evening at 8 o’clock the time, and the football game with California the occasion. This will be the biggest night rally in the history of the University and from the looks of things, it will be a long time before there is another one as large.
The bonfire, the offering of the freshman boys, will be the big event of the evening. A large quantity of wood has already been gathered, in spite of war conditions, which make this commodity unusually difficult to obtain. The fire will serve a double purpose. In the first place, it will furnish light for the assembled multitude, and secondly, will keep the “pajama chorus” from catching colds, it being reported that Bovard field is literally infested with colds of every variety, and that these are extremely easy to catch.
Owen Bird, a well-known sporting men of Los Angeles, will be the main speaker of the evening. Mr. Bird will introduce the varsity players, who will occupy seats on the platform and will be attired in their working clothes, meaning football suits. The members of the frosh eleven will also be present.
Short addresses will be made by President Bovard, Coaches Dean Cromwell and Fred Teschke.
Much yelling will be indulged in, and several new yells will be intro-Iduced to the student body. President I Manfred Evans has announced that I I’at Milliken, former varsity baseball I star and coach of last year’s nine, and Jat prcMiit instructor in the College I of Law, has been secured to assist in Beading yeiu. Pat says that the law I students, as usual, are showing a |fc,eat amount ot pep.
I	At l.i^t year’s rally, the freshmen l*OB»igi their caps to the Haines I'1' the bonfire, but this year the frosh ■wdl be permitted, in fact required, to n'vear th< ,i caps all year.
‘What lam After is Volume In the New Yells, ’ Says Evans	
“Songs are many, but I have only one new yell worthy of the name,” said President Manfred Evans. “It aegins, ’Oleander, goosy-gander.’ ” Evans was discussing the results of his song and yell contest which will close Friday. “I wanted a yell with a boom in it— one of the slow, rolling sort that seems to gather force as it sweeps	across the field. “Volume! That’s what I’m after— volume.” When asked if he had enough new war cries to till a volume, Evans sadly shook his head. "That part shouldn't worry the contestants,” he said. “If they will put the volume in the yells, they can leave it to me to put the yells in a volume.”

CROMWELL EXPECTS
UNIVERSITY WOMEN WILL ENTER PARADE
Girls Will Ride in Autos; Regulation “Dry” Uniforms Will Be Worn
Attired in white suits and hats, with red sweaters and yellow chrysanthemums, the women of the University Y. W. C. A. will enter the “California Dry” parade early Saturday afternoon, returning to Fiesta park in time for the first whistle of the big game.
It was the original plan of the Y. W. to provide a float for the parade, but it was later decided to use a number of automobiles. There will be room for every Kiri who wishes to aid the cause, and wear the regulation “dry” uniform.
The parade forms at 12 o’clock. Further details will appear in Friday’s “T rojan.”
TO HAVE SURPRISE FOB 'CAL' VARSITY
Coaches Shift Line-up; Captain Jones at Half and Burkett or Blake at End
LARGE ROOTING SECTION
RESERVED FOR S. C. MEN
Tickets to be Bought at Book Store and at Business Offices of All Other Colleges
“The way things look now 1 won’t be a bit surprised if we spring one big surprise next Saturday afternoon when we play California,” stated Coach Cromwell yesterday afternoon. “The team is rounding into better shape every day and I can promise the student body a better game of football than was exhibited against Utah.” The coach finished by saying that the team had a hard schedule ahead and that if the student body keeps up as good a work as the football team there will be no one left to complain.
Many of the varsity men have been injured. Stuart and Marks were put clear out of business by the Utah game and it was only yesterday that they could enter a skirmish. Burkett’s knee was badly injured and Clark’s elbow was dislocated. However, with the exception of Clark every man will be in fighting trim by Saturday.
Captain Jones has been shifted to Clark’s place at right half and Burkett put in his place. With the exception of this change the line up will be the same as that which went up against Utah.
A regular rooting section has been arranged for the U. S. C. rooters. A lar^e part of the bleachers in the center of the field has been marked off. and at least a thousand U. S. C. rooters should be in this section.
The student rate will be one dollar and the tickets will be on sale until Friday night at the University book store, and at the business offices of all the other colleges that are not on the campus.
The line-up for the game probably will be Wilson, center, Sigler, l.g.; Stuart, r.g.; Fox, l.t.; Marks, r.t.; Simpson, I.e.; Burkett, r.e.; Murray, quarter! Jones, r.h.; Mallette, l.h.; Kelly, full; Fox will probably do the kicking.
