LOOKS MORE LIKE A PIE FIGHT—But they insist it's a pizza-eating contest. Whatever it is. USC won in the end, even though it looks as though
the participants lost momentously. Final score was USC 24v2, UCLA 19'/2.
Bloated Bruins Fall To Troy's Pizzamen
By FRED SWEGLES
Forget USC's losses to UCLA in football, water polo and basketball this season. Los Angeles is once again Trojan Town, or at least when it comes to eating pizza.
USC's first pizza-eating team captured the first annual crosstown championship Thursday night at S’lakev's Pizza Parlor in Hollywood. The score was a bloated 241 ^ - 19’j pizzas.
Before a spirited throng of some 300 spectators from both uni-
pizzas, and TEP pledge Jack Sander, who drank down five soggy pizzas.
There was some dispute over the exact number of pizzas eaten, since pizza fragments were scattered all over the floor.
“The win is in the TEP heritage.’’ Sander proudly told the Daily Trojan yesterday, agreeing with LeVine that “TEP's have always been big eaters.” TEP Don Kaplan won the USC-UCLA pancake-eating contest last year by

versities. the five-man USC team averaged close to five pizzas-per-man in the allotted contest time of ten minutes. Bruin gastronomists averaged less than four pizzas each in the ten minutes.
Leading the Trojan gorging attack was Mike LeVine. a member of T?u Epsilon Phi. who devoured 51 -j pizzas and attributed his victory to what he called “TEP-sumption.”
His victory strategy consisted of watering down each pizza, crushing it into a dough and drinking it down. This made the pizzas soggier, he said, and easier to bolt down.
Second and third place Trojan honors went to Ev Miller, of Tau Kappa Epsilon, who consumed 5'4
stuffing down approximately 300 in a half-hour.
Other Trojans who contributed to the victory were Greg Lahr. of Alpha Tau Omega: and Mike KirV' ner. of Sigma Aloha Epsilon.
The previous Thursday had seen 12 Trojan pizza fans vie for coveted positions on the finals team which went on to swallow UCLA. LeVine had also won that competition by downing 5'^ of the 12"-diam^ter pizzas.
For their victory spoils, the Trojans received Shakey's first annual team tronhy. which they will keep as long as th?y keep eating up the Bruins. All five finalists on each team were awarded smaller trophies.

Bagels, Lox and Bikel Or, The Jewish Ethic
B> JUDY BORGERDING
“I want people to grab power, but I want to know what they are going to do with that power,” Theodore Bikel, actor - singer - turned-exhorter said before a near overflow crowd at the Hillel House yesterday.
Bikel. in defining what he refers to as “the Jewish ethic,” covered topics ranging from the cultural transmission of Jewish heritage to Vietnam.
Beginning on a somber note, he spoke of “a horrible spectre which haunts me—the spectre of organized Jewry being a bunch of old men talking to other old men.” who then ask “where is our youth?”
He lambasted the older generation not only for their failure to transmit values to youth, but also for their lack of values to transmit in the first place.
The younger generation was next. He called for a total involvement by Jewish youth whether that involvement be a personal or a religious one.
“The gulf that separates the youth and their elders has never been as wide, never seemingly as unbreach-able. Alienation is not-a particularly

Jewish problem, but it has its Jewish ramfications,” he said.
The Free Speech Movement and the anti-Vietnam protests (which he cited as legitimate forms of protest) along with draft card burning and lying on train tracks (which he characterized as a symbolic means of protest are symptoms of alientation between the generations.
Bikel’s answer to this alienation is total commitment — the commitment of the older generation to the younger generation and vice-versa.
The Jewish ethic, he said, is a commitment, for example, to civil rights, based on the Judaic law, "thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.” “That law doesn’t say that the neighbor must be black or white, so we must work in this movement as Jews.” he said.
Further defining the Jewish ethic, Bikel spoke of the Jews as “the chosen people — chosen to carry out a task.” Part of that task is promoting peace. “It is doubtful whether we have a pipeline to LBJ, but he tells Goldberg to tell the Jews to lay off,” Bikel quipped.
Characterizing the Jewish people as promoters of peace, Bikel feels the
A lack of communication was the reason voter registration did not begin yesterday. Elections Co-commissioner Laury Scott said yesterday.
A difference of opinion prevented registration cards from being printed in time for Monday’s opening in front of the Student Union.
“We were supposed to have the the voter registration cards printed by the University Press,” Scott said.
“I took them down to Robert Scheewe and he was going to rush them and get them done by Monday. He called to make sure it was a rush job. and Clive Grafton (student activities director) said there was no rush.
“I can only attribute the failure to a lack of communication between Mr. Grafton and myself,” he said.
Voter registration will begin tomorrow at 9 a.m. in front of the Student Union.
Students must register to be eligible to vote on April 3 and 4 in the regular student election. Undergraduates must carry at least twelve units and graduates must carry at least eight units to be eligible to vote. A photo I.D. card must also be presented.
Voter registration will continue until March 10. Students may also register on election day by going through the special line in front of the Bovard Auditorium polling area.
Scott said the floating poll, originally scheduled to be in the architecture-fine arts-engineering area at the south end of campus, on April 3, is “kind of up in the air right now.”
“I don’t know where it will be yet, Scott, said, but it’ll be somewhere.
On April 4, the floating poll will be on the Row, at University Ave. and 28th St.

DG Named No. I Dresser In Contest
By SUSAN LEEPER Society Editor
Jeanette Fakehany, a DG nominated by both her sorority and the KA’s, will represent USC as its Best-Dressed Coed in Glamour magazine’s search for the Ten Best-Dressed College Girls in America.
Miss Fakehany, a senior majoring in sociology, won the Daily Trojan contest over 16 other contestants in a hot and confused afternoon yesterday.
Kathv Pennock. nominated by ADPi. was named alternate.
The contestants were judged in three outfits—campus, casual and cocktail—by Mona Shelton, art major and model: Lance Spiegel, sports editor; Dr. Frederick Coonradt, professor of journalism: and Susan Leeper. society editor.
Two other judges could not attend because of illness, and a third arrived late and was thus unable to judge.
Adding to the general confusion, one of two rooms reserved in Von KleinSmid Center had to be U3ed during part of the judging for a classroom: while the entire building was unseasonably hot because the heaters had been left on through the night.
Other contestants included Marilyn Carter (AChiOs) Linda Cornell (ChiOs): Joan Susan Cottier (Gamma Phis): Leslie Forester (Thetas); Christina Graves (ChiOs); Alpha Phi Sandy Johnson (Spurs); Katy Kane (DGs); Harriet Lees (ChiOs).
Claudia McHenry (Thetas); K. T. McNei! (Gamma Phis); Betsy Mogul (B’nai Brith Hillel); Judy Reining (Kappas); Debra Taylor (DGs); Molly Turner (Alpha Phis); ADPi Sherry Thorne (Sid Eps).
STATEWIDE COMPETITION .
El Rod Wins, DT Loses by I
Daily Trojan Editor Greg Kieselmann and the 1966 El Rodeo paced the USC delegation to within one point of a fourth consecutive Sweepstakes victory at the California Intercollegiate Press Association convention last weekend.
Sacramento State College, host school, emerged as the victor by capturing awards in newspaper, yearbook and magazine competitions.
The 1966 El Rodeo, edited bv Brad Sales, won first place in the Overall Yearbook category.
Kieselmann placed first in Investigative Reporting for his five-part series last semester, “The Negro at USC.”
Stan Metzler. assistant to the editor. and Bill Dicke, assistant editorial director, won second place new* writing awards.
Metzler won for an article en ‘‘The New Morality,” an advance story on Bishop James Pike’s November speech. Dicke placed for his coverage of CSC members of SDS who picketed an air base in a story headlined “Demonstrators Blast War Policy.”
The Daily Trojan failed to win awards for sports writing, editorials or photography.
Also, for the first time in many years, it did not place in the Overall Daily Paper division, won by the San Diego State Aztec. The Daily Trojan had submitted five consecutive issues, including the Rose Bowl and UCLA gamp editions, in this competition.
USC did not compete for magazine awards, although these were included for Sweepstakes competition.
TV convention began Friday with a serirq of news coherences and panel discussions on nolitics, freedom ot the ^ress and news coverage.
Speaking at the Friday night banquet. Lt. Gov. Robert Finch said that modest state college and university tuitions “would help poor students get a grant or loan so they would not need a falltime job.”
Noting that the state schools already have a tuition in the guise of incidental fees. Finch advocated that funds thus received be returned to the schools through student grants and faculty inducements.
He admitted the public relations on the tuition proposal had been badly handled, but blamed the first release of information to educators who “broke trust after preliminary negotiations" with the government by reporting the secret talks to press.
At the Saturday business meeting the USC delegation, voting last, broke a tie to pass a resolution advocating complete freedom of all California schools to endorse political candidates and issues.
State colleges and universities are theoretically prohibited from endorsements by seldom-enforced education code articles, and many private schools, including USC. have been asked by their administrations to avoid endorsements.
The resolution, explaining that student newspaper opinions represent only the newspaper staff and can perform “a valuable advisory. function for its readers,” recommended that editorial comment be bound “only by the laws and canons of the press in the United States of America.”
TO THE WINNERS BELONG THE TROPHIES—Daily Trojan editor Greg Kieselmann, 1966 El Rodeo Editor Brad Sales, 1967 El Rod Editor Ginny Walters* and Daily
Trojan staffers Jack Chappell and Stan Metzler display
the trophies they won at the iGth annual convention of the California Inteicollegiate Press Association.
