Faculty urged: Help students help others
RySTAN METZLER News Editor
Perhaps the main quality shared hr 200 I’SC students is commitment.
*	very committed USC student told the faculty yesterday noon.
Commitment. T^en Matheson said the Faculty Luncheon, and interest In the tutee as a person are the two qualities that even- USC tutor should possess.
Matheson. one of four school directors in Student Tutorial, and Alan Linsley, pro.iect director, were speaking on what the faculty can do for Tutorial.
“We could place 600 to 1.000 tutors right now." Lindsley said, ‘‘but the turnout just hasn't been as good this year as last.
NO LONGER UNIQUE “For one thing, it’s no longer quite as unique a thing to go down to Watts Tt's been over a year now since the riots, and the need somehow doesn’t seem so urgent.’’
For the faculty, he said, the pressing need is ‘to ask. to suggest, to demand" that students consider spending three or four hours a week helping an underprivileged child.
He also urged them to meet wrth student tutors as they go over techniques and problems and to financially aid University Teen Post.
a high school-oriented project with a pressing lack of funds.
Earlier. Cookie Pettee and Pat Reed, directors of Project Chance, explained the opportunities available in their program, w h ic h works with first, second and third graders from 37th St. School, located across Vermont Ave.
THREE MAIN GOALS
The main goals of Project Chance. Miss Pettee said, are to deal with children in a small group situation, to let them experience something new and to help those with slight emotional problems.
“We re wise enough to know that we re not capable of dealing with those students with real emotional problems." she said, “but we do like to get those with slight group adjustment troubles."
She explained that the 30 to 40 students participating in the project, often meet to discuss these problems and urged the faculty members to at-tend these meetings and give suggestions on how to handle them.
She and Miss Reed also asked the faculty to open up their labs and classes for small group visits, to donate craft materials and to take out associate YWCA memberships, the $2 fee from which helps support the project.
Students seek Brown-Reagan TV talk; Say Democrats are main obstructionists
By HA I, LANCASTER City Editor
Stubborness seems to be a trait with some people.
Like Ron Heyer. David Kenner. Jim Mason and Charles Bushman, for instance.
They stubbornly refuse to believe that Gov. Brown and Ronald Reagan cannot and will not debate on television before Election Day, Nov. 8.
And they have set about trying to get the two together. The odds against this are 3-to-l, or so says one of Reagan’s aides, but they're trying anyway.
The four-man committee, was formed in a graduate speech seminar on argumentation and foren*
sics. They decided to see what the problem was and try to correct it. They eventually devised a format for the proposed debate.
“One man went to Republican headquarters and another went to Democratic headquarters,” Heyer, a teaching assistant, said.
“I talked to Jim Caswell, the assistant to Phil Battaglia, who is directing Reagan's campaign. He jumped up and down and said ‘do it, do it.’ ”
Kenner talked to officials at Brown's headquarters.
Heyer said the Republicans would concede almost anything, while the Democrats would con cede nothing.
“The Republicans wanted a for-
mal. academic debate, with direct questioning between the candidates, no notes and no limitation of topics.
“The Democrats wanted a meet-the-press type debate with questions coming only from reporters. They also wanted the topics limited to fiscal policy, law enforcement. social welfare and any other subject previously agreed to.”
Oddly enough, Heyer said, non actor Pat wanted makeup and actor Ronnie didn't.
The main problem, the committee decided, was the Democratic feeling that Brown is not aggressive enough to look good in a televised debate and that Brown should
have the final word on the arrangements for the debate The proposal the committee finally presented to Dr. James H. McBath. chairman of the speech department, and eventually to the candidates, was a compromise.
The show would be split, with half conducted under Reagan’s for-mal-debate format, and the other half under Brown's meet the-press format. The topics would be preselected and notes would be optional.
No mention was made of makeup.
"I hope they will get together and at least consider this format,” Heyer said. ‘We re non-partisan. We want the issues aired."

HUNDREDS CHEER TROJANS AS SAN FRANCISCO ECHOES WITH FIGHT SONGS Annual Union Square Rally is traditional kicking-off point tor Friday night on the town before Sat. Stanford Game
UNION SQUARE—FRIDAY AT 9
Trojans will get a second chance at tradition tomorrow night at 9 in San Francisco s Union Square.
The traditional rally, previously cancelled because of the failure of last year's effort was reinstated last week at the request of the AMS Council, which along with men's service groups is assuming the responsibility of organizing the rally.
Stu Renjamin. AMS president, stressed the importance of the Union Square crowd being orderly, and the rally will end promptly at 9:30.
Rrad Sales, publicity chairman, urged everyone going north for the Stanford game to attend because "unless we have a good showing, this will
he the last time for the Union Square Rally."
“We anticipate a huge crowd." said Benjamin, “at least a thousand people." Alumni have also been invited to the rally.
A rooting section of 2.900 seats at the Stanford stadium has been sold out to Trojans, said Sales.
The yell leaders, headed by Yell King Jeff Herten. will lead USC songs and cheers and Athletic Director Jess Hill is -scheduled to speak to the crowd.
Because the rally was not reinstated until last week, the Trojan Marching Band did not make hotel reservations for Friday night and
Pat Ryan, frats adviser, seeks to make Row responsible force
Ry PAT SAXON
The scratched-up sign on the door nf 21R Student Union reads "FRATERNITY AFFAIRS." The sign is old. Hut the tall man behind the office desk is new.
He is Pat Rvan. the new assistant dean of men. and he has already begun an active program to make fraternities a more responsible part of the university community.
He is replacing Mike Raleigh, a Phi Kappa Tau. who is now in the Personnel Department of Litton Industries.
The first major step the Inter-fratemitv Council, to which Ryan is adviser, undertook this semester was the day - long Direction '67 meeting held in September.
SMALL DISCUSSIONS
Representatives from all fraternities met together to discuss in small committees the significant problems faced by all the houses on campus and to recommend practical programs to deal with the problems.
Ryan said he anticipates a number of programs to be initiated in the upcoming year as a result of the conference. The report of the conference will be made public next wek.
Another program Ryan is backing ti the graduate adviser system, w'hich

is now being used by Pi Kappa Alpha. Lambda Chi Alpha. Tau Kappa Epsilon. Tau Epsilon Phi and Chi Phi.
These advisers meet every week with Ryan and discuss issues com-
mon to the houses they represent. This enables them to counsel their respective houses more effectively.
Ryan himself is no stranger t.o counseling individual chapters. Before coming here he was a traveling secretary for Lambda Chi Alpha for two years following his graduation from the University of Kentucky.
There will be an increase in the number of positively directed programs undertaken by the IFC once the fraternites all realize that the IFC is representing them and that it is there to help them, Ryan said.
Ryan believes the major role of the fraternity system in a, university community is to help overall personality development of the individual beyond the classroom.
SELECT GROUP “It provides an opportunity to live closely with a select group of friends and to develop by being with them during an important part of life.” He said this basic purpose is being achieved here and emphasized that it is compatible with the university’s desires.
Ryan is secretary for the Interfraternity Alumni of Southern California and Assistant National Director of Ritualism for Lambda Chi Alpha.
will not be in San Francisco until early Saturday morning.
However, a sound truck will be on hand to fill the Union Square area with pre-recorded Trojan spirit songs.
Although Traveler and his rider Richard Saukko plan to make a brief appearance at the Saturday afternoon game, they won’t appear Friday night, Sales said, as a precaution for the safety of the mascot.
Arrangements with the City of San Francisco for permission to use the downtown park were made hy Bob Jani. director of special events.
CABLE CAR POSTERS
Thirty posters featuring a cable car, San Francisco’s trademark, were made by the Kappa Kappa Gamma class to publicize the event.
Another pregame rally, which had been set for Saturday at 10:30 a.m.. has been cancelled.
Thirty-six rooter’ busses have been reserved for transportation to the game in Palo Alto- They are scheduled to leave Union Square, at the corner of Post and Powell Streets, from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. They will return passengers to Union Square following the game.
Tickets cost $2 for the round trip. They may be purchased in the Special Events Office, 232 Student Union, at the Alumni Reception Friday evening at the San Francisco Hilton Hotel and at the rally-

“It is remotely possible that people who question the credentials of someone running for even a city council 3eat will examine Ronald Rea gan and note his inconsistencies and unawareness of California politics and issues.
“But then. I don't have much confidence in people.”
Dr. Russell Caldwell, professo*- of history and guest speaker at Hill-elunch yesterday, thus unenthusiastically picked GOP candidate Ronald Reagon over incumbent Edmund G. Brown in next month's gubernatorial election.
Dr. Caldwell cited several campaign issues in which the electorate “only feels disgruntled, but does not see the underlying issues.
“Brown is mistakenly associated with current problems, while people seek Reagan as a way out.
‘TIRED OF VIETNAM’
“The California voters are tired of the Vietnam war, and Brown has continually supported President Johnson's foreign policy in Southeast Asia “Inflation and rising costs in food products have made Brown a good foil for Reagan. The GOP candidate charges that government spending is much too high, but Brownt has nothing to do with these rising costs,” Dr. Caldwell said.
In civil rights, many white voters feel irresponsibility on the part of Negroes is being unreasonably tolerated. This white backlash is particularly evident among labor unions, he said.
“Unions are now pressured into taking in Negro members. Minority groups are pushed in while whites' seniority is often ignored. Because Rrow-n has identified himself with the Negro cause, labor blocs will vore against him.”
Dr. Caldwell, in charging that the
DR. RUSSELL CALDWELL Picks Reagan winner
GOP is squandering its political resources and political future with Reagan, said the party has never been in need of capable men.
“Dwight Eisenhower had the power but not the will; he placed himself above GOP politics at a tune when the party needed revitalization. Nelson Rockefeller, however, had the will but no power.
CIVIL RIGHTS ISSUE
“In an issue as important as civil rights, the GOP. the party of Lincoln, could have made this cause its own."
“President Johnson, in reading the political tea leaves, has not attempted to exert any influence in California politicking by campaigning for Rrown." Dr. Caldw’ell said.
"Johnson, is discerning Brown's un-popularity, does not. want to he identified with disaster and has deserted the governor by taking off for a conference in Manila."
