Kraus, elected manager of il Rodeo ’18, during the sophomore ear of the class, is also among the ab-;ent ones this year, owing to business lemands in the East. Consequently, :he class yesterday decided to hold a meeting next Friday, after assembly, 2:30 p. m., in room 40, to nominate and elect a manager to fill the place eft vacant by Mr. Kraus. Professors F. E. Owen and B. O. Bliven, of the faculty committee on publications, suggested new methods tor the business relations of El Roreo 18. They recommended the elimination of advertising, inasmuch as unnecessary financial complications can hus be avoided. Furthermore, it was tated that Stanford University and ither institutions arc planning to pub-ish their annuals without advertising. Reuel L.

I After the class meeting, the men ■hscussed the wearing of corduroys. By CAPT. HERB JONES Football prospects last week were about as bright and cheerful as the thoughts of a man who plays the wrong horse at Tia Juana. This week, however, there has been a decided improvement. Monday brought such noteworthy men as Fox and Malette of last year’s fame. Tuesday we had out a grand total of 22 men for varsity positions, including our old friend Simpson, commonly known as “Simp.” With the addition of Kelly, Marxen, Johnnie Schwamm, Moseley and some others from the other colleges, there is no reason why we cannot turn out a team capable of defeating our upstate friends known as the U. of C. The manager has arranged a splendid schedule with outside teams, including those of Utah and Arizona, and “Oregon Aggies,” and whoever the men may be who represent the University in the various games under the supervision of Coach Cromwell, it will be a regular team. CRAIG NOMINATED BY BIG MAJORITY Politicians Predict Overwhelming Vote for Popular Law Instructor at Finals Running ahead of his nearest opponents, two of whom were also incumbents, by 10,000 votes, Superior Judge Gavin W. Craig had easy sailing at the recent primary in his fight for re-election. The big vote given Judge Craig is a testimonial to his great popularity in the county, as his campaign expenditures were practically nothing. Local politicians claim Judge Craig will secure an enormous vote at the final elections next November. At the end of the next six years, when his term expires, Judge Craig’s friends will undoubtedly force him to seek even higher political honors. Judge Craig is one of the most popular instructors at the College of Law, where he has taught for twelve years. U. S. C. BASEBALL DEMON MAY BE PORTLAND STAR “Scow” Curry, the demon first-sacker of Pat Millikan’s baseball nine last season, will be given a trial with \V?lter McCredie’s Portland team next spring. Curry is a good fielder and hits well against the best pitchers. Strange to say, the poor pitchers are the ones that give him the most trouble. Curry will try to take the place of Louis Guisto, but he has some job ahead of him. Villainous Van Velzer Victimized After running his automobile into a lamp standard, talking back to a Santa Ana judge, and spending a night in a dark cell in Santa Ana, F. Clare Van Velzer, former freshman of the University of Southern California, is resuming his duties. Van Velzer declares that he was not speeding, and considers it extremely rude of the judge to subject him to a diet of bread and water. SCORE: 29-0 UNABLE TO RESIST DAN CUPID’S SUIT Law School Attorney Instructor and Politician Takes Woman Attorney for Bride Greater Experience of Sophomore Men in Interfering, Responsible for Clear-cut Victory on Bovard Lot— Stars Cannot be Distinguished It is Little Belle Hibben no longer! It is now, and in the future will be, Mrs. Kemper B. Campbell. For on August 31 last Attorney Dan Cupid served a permanent writ of attachment on the happy couple, and sentenced them for life. The ceremony, simple and private, was performed by Superior Judge Gavin W. Craig. Of interest to the students of the College of Law is the fact that the marriage was the outgrowth of a pretty romance that had its inception in its class rooms. After Miss Hib-ben’s graduation with the highest honors, Mr. Campbell gave her a place in his law office; later she became his business partner, and shortly afterward his life partner. Mrs. Campbell is very well known at the law school. She has frequently taught the Torts and Real Property classes. I'or the past six months she has been Deputy District Attorney, having the distinction of being the only woman to occupy such a position in the United States. Mr. Campbell is prominent locally as an attorney, instructor and as a politician. He served as campaign manager for Governor Johnson two years ago in the celebrated Johnson-Fredericks tussle. WEEDING OUT BEGINS; GIRL SINGERS’ TRYOUT The Girls’ Glee Club held its first tryout of the year Wednesday at 3 p. m. For the convenience of the girls who missed this tryout, another will be held in a few days, the date to appear in the “Trojan” and on the bulletin board. Sophomore experience was too much for freshman fight on Bovard field yesterday afternoon, when Captain Sigler's huskies overwhelmed the painted “Frosh” 29 to 0. At three o’clock the sophomores, groteskuely arrayed in old clothes, serpentined the field and lined up for the moving-picture cameras. Fifty-eight freshmen with green-painted faces confidently walked to their marks a few minutes later—a few more flickers from the camera, and the light was on. After the first resounding bump, it was plainly seen that the new men were no match for ’19. The sophs knew too much about the game. Last year’s victories over ’18, and Throop College had filled Sigler’s men with confidence and they were not to be stopped. They ran interference like seasoned halfbacks, taking freshman away from in front of the ball and leaving almost a clear field to the goal. In the first five minutes six points were scored, and three more were chalked up in the next four minutes. This took the light out of the freshman and scoring became a habit— nineteen to nothing at the end of the first half. The second half opened up the same story, the sophs scoring in the first two minutes. Freshmen football candidates, who were not allowed to play hy Coach Cromwell, stood on the sidelines and bemoaned their fate. “If we w;ere in that mess,” said one, “it would be different,” and nobody disputed his word. Eate in the fourth quarter the freshmen rallied, but were not able to affect the scoring. The game ended with the “frosh” bravely fighting off another threatening goal. The freshmen had organized yelling in the bleachers, led by a “peppy” young person named Clarence Perkins. The feminine element of both underclasses half covered the bleachers. TAJO ELEVATOR SLIPS; WELL-JUSTIFIED PANIC The elevator in the Tajo building, which in November, 1914, fell nearly four stories, injuring twenty-two persons, had another fall in its career. The car slipped nearly five feet yesterday, causing no injury to its occupants but resulting in a good-sized panic. Threats to start a petition for a new elevator were frequent yesterday at the law school. The 1914 accident is reported to have cost the owners of the building more than $75,000 in damage suits.
