HSF Awards ! Grant to Aid Marine Study
A National Science Founda-, tion (NSF) grant for $100,- j 000 has been awarded forj USC marine geological studies.
The grant will primarily support work aboard USC's research vessel. Yelero IV. USC marine scientists, using the precision echo sounder aboard the Yelero. are mapping sections of the Pacific Ocean floor in areas where this type of study has not' been conducted for more than . 50 years.
Dr. Leslie A. Chambers, director of USC's Allan Han- j cock Foundation which operates the Yelero. says the grant will be entirely directed toward the work of USC's marine geologists, even though the Yelero is also used j in marine biology.
Marine Studies
The marine topographical studies are the particular work of two USC graduate j students in geology and their findings will become thesis. material for advanced degrees. Dr. Donn Goraline. associate professor of geology, and a research fellow of the | Hancock Foundation, pointed out.
Robert Gaal is with the topo-probing of the Catalina basin level. Frederick Wright is mapping the 10,000-foot level along the Continental slope off Point Conception. Dr. Goraline said both studies will contribute to national defense because of their significance to the Office of Naval Research.
Wright and Gaal are among IH USC graduates working in | the area of marine geology. ' fifteen undergraduate students are also involved in the program.
Cooperation
“In a number of our present research projects, we're working closely with teams of graduate students in both biology and geology." Dr. Goraline said. ‘ On such programs we cooperate closely with Dr. Paul Saunders, head of the

Christmas Can Collection Gains Sudden Support
Businessmen Should Study,
Expert Says
By DENIS HOUSE
Social science is becoming an increasingly important factor in business administration. Dr. George Odiorne. director of the Bureau of Industrial Relations at Michigan University, said yesterday.
Speaking before an informal gathering at Bridge Hall. Dr. Odiorne said an “explosion of things to know" has intensified the need for business leaders to have a good background in one or more of the social sciences. Specifically. he named economics, sociology, anthropology, psychology and mathematics.
“Economics, in particular, because gains made in related behavioral sciences have overshadowed it. needs to be further utilized by businessmen." Dr. Odiorne explained.
He noted the major problem in applying the behavioral sciences to business was a tendency to over - specialize in one impinging field.
General knowledge that is inadequate in specific situations is similarly dangerous. It is up to our business schools to offer an effective application of social sciences • to business while turning out efficient individuals," he observed.
Dr. Odiorne added that part of this job can be accomplished in liberal arts colleges. but that it is up to the business schools themselves to provide the “effective intellectual climate in the business sphere.”
“I also predict the decline of the BA in business.” he said. There just isn't enough time to do a satisfactory By DICK SHEREK	prived her family of nearly as Ygraine. and though she job.

New horizons and new challenges are “old hat" to Arline June Gordon, senior in education at USC.
Miss Gordon hn3 solved the problem of what to do in her “spare time”—she's eliminated it.
In addition to her study obligations she is on a PTA scholarship — she finds time
to produce and sometimes direct a television series, to work part-time in the campus educational placement office and to student teach at 32nd Street Elementary School.
The psychology major and speech minor also teaches emotionally disturbed children.
A course in audio - visual aids at USC spurred Miss Gordon into the field of tele-
vision. Her term project brought her in contact with every phase of television, in front of and behind the
scenes.
The television series “Essence of Judaism," which Miss Gordon helps produce, appears every Tuesday at 9:45 a.m. on KCOP, channel 13.
Appealing to both Jewish and non-Jewish. the program attempts to overcome prejudices and build understanding through the presentation of the religious aspects, traditional customs and artistic contributions of the minority group.
The next program in the series will be a children's dramatization of the story of Hanukah. which will be (Continued on Page 2)
Food Goal
Appears
Feasible
There have been more contributions to LTSC's canned food drive in the past 24 hours than during the entire week. Joe Baldi. chairman of the Christmas project to aid needy families, said yesterday.
“Response has been fantas-, tic" Baldi said With a wholesale food connection we've made, we'll be able to pur-j chase canned vegetables for less than 12 cents each to help our drive help others.”
Baldi was confident that the committee's goal of 6.000 cans would be met.
More than $350 has been collected, but that figure still represents less than 4 centa per undergraduate student, Roger Rosendahl. Baldi s assistant. added.
Fraternity Donors
Fraternity donors include Sigma Alpha Mu and Phi Gamma Delta. 300 cans and Phi Kappa Psi. 150 cans. More than .SI50 in joint contributions from the fraternities has also been collected.
Sororities, the directors of the drive explained, have contributed little toward L'SC's effort.
There have been donations from every service club on campus and interest among the student body and faculty has greatly increased, according to the drive's officials.
Other contributors include Stokely - Van Camp Produce Co.. 300 cans: Larry Greenfield. a student. 6 cases; Chancellor Rufus B. von KleinSmid. $10; the Law School. $50; the Pharmacy School. $15: TYR. $10; and TDC $10.
On Duty
Speakers will continue to visit residence halls, fraternities and sororities.
Canned goods or money will be collected at four locations* on campus — in front of the Student I'nion. across from Founders Hall on University Avenue: in the Hoover Boulevard parking lot across from Doheney Library and in the engineering parking lot on Hoover Street across from the YWCA.
Members of Spurs. Troeds, Knights. Squires. Chimes, Amazons and Trojanes will be on duty at these locations (Continued on Page 4)

The International Students House is suffering a critical financial shortage that is hampering its activities and threatening to undo its efforts to provide an effective social climate for foreign students. an article in the Row Newsletter claimed recently.
The article cited declining attendance at house activities. lack of interest on the Row and. above all. refusal of the administration to permit collection of dues, as the major causes of the strain.
‘‘The International Students House was told by the administration that they could not collect dues, thereby removing the logical way of raising money." Row Editor Fred Cassidy wrote.
Cassidy said the apparent reason for this and other moves hampering the financial growth of the house is an administration plan to form a committee in behalf of the International Students House. The committee is planning to donate funds to

“Although the house would gladly accept this gift, it is not the proper solution. The International Students House should be an autonomous, sovereign and divorced from external control," Cassidy believes.
In addition, the article said the funds will probably be given at some time in the future. but the present lack of funds is lessening the influence which the house exerts over its members.
“The house is unable to provide the activities that make membership a worthwhile and attractive thing.”
Cassidy pointed to several solutions for the problem. He suggested the ban on collection of dues be removed, thereby returning to the house its main sou rce of funds.
Film Series To Conclude
Delta Kappa Alpha, national honorary cinema society. will conclude its fall film schedule this weekend with the showing of three film classics.
“Les Girls.” the Friday evening feature, is a Cole Porter musical. On Saturday. "My Darling Clementine." a John Ford western, will be featured with “La Cucara-cha.”
Both programs will be shown at 8 p.m. in 133 FH. Admission on Friday is 50 cents. Saturday it is 75 cents.
He also suggested that houses on the Row offer to donate funds to the International Students House.
As a third possibility. Cassidy proposed that members of fraternities and sororities on the Row patronize those activities which the house is able to sponsor, as well a3 the facilities of the house.
"This would, in turn, attract foreign students eager to meet them and would make up for the temporary lack of social activities offered by the house.” the article continued.
When it was first opened, in February, 1962. the International Students House received financial help from donations from the Row and from university alumni. Fraternities and sororities provided help in the form of labor, and after a short time the university donated the building, formerly the Acacia fraternity house, on a rent-free basis.
“USC has one of the largest groups of foreign students of any campus in the country-, and it has the obligation to provide every opportunity for them to become fully integrated into campus and make them acquainted with the ‘American way of kUfe ," Cassidy noted.
