The humble official then said, “Tnis is a radical new approach to senior class organization. There are many new offices and they are going to be allowed to experiment.”
Another Kazanjian first is the admittance of underclassmen to the committees.
“Seniors will have preference, but hard-working, interested underclassmen will be selected to fill vacancies,” he said.
'•This will give the next senior class a head start so that they don’t waste two months just figuring what to do first.
“In light of student government in the past, we’re not going to try to set the world on fire. We'll try to complete a few main objectives and have a frood year. We realize our limitations.”
ONLY ONE CLASS Kazanjian said only the senior class has organization because the senior class is the only one that can be called a class.
“Some people graduate in one year, some in two, some in three and others in four, but everybody is a senior in his final year. The rest below are a huge blob.”
A few other selected quotes from the articulate senior leader were: “Seniors are fortunate this year in having a capable and humble administrator. namely myself.”
“This will not be run as a bra intrust as it has in the past.”
“We’re looking ahead with a great deal of vision, inspiration and anticipation.”
When pinned down on a sticky question like, “how many people are there in the senior class?”, Kazanjian snapped back, “A great multitude. I’m really worried about the draft though, a great number of our best have been lost to this.
And he left, shaking his head with concern about Uncle Sam's unfair recruiting tactics.
Lynch mob!'—excited vigilantes make Steve Harvey swing for sins
By HAL LANCASTER City Editor
“Lynch mob!”
The words rolled off the excited, salivating tongue of one and echoed through the entire community Friday, raging into the SCellar, sweeping through the vending machines.
“Lynch mob!”
People began to pour into the streets. Justice, as the mob saw it. was about to be done. A criminal would be strung up at noon on University Avenue, for everyone to see.
“Lynch mob!”
And now they came, the band of vigilantes, dragging their victim. The golden - headed ringleader, his nostrils spread like a bull, directed the execution.
“What's going on?” he was asked.
“We’re hanging Steve Harvey in effigy here and Steve Harris in Pao Alto Saturday.” he said.
It suddenly became clear. It was the Trojan marching band striking back. Harvey, Daily Trojan cosports editor, had written an article for the Los Angeles Her-ald-Examiner, charging the band with harboring a few fakers. Harris, Daily Trojan editor, had originally made the charge in the campus newspaper.
“Mipht it be assumed, then, that you are all members of the Trojan marching band ?” the ringleader was vsked.
“Band? There is no band, don't you know that? It's the Trojan Library Band, remember?” he retorted.
“Are there really members of the Daily Trojan sports staff who are faking it?” a lone voice cried from the rear.
The deed was soon done, and the likeness (it was made of old DT’s, hot air and cabbage for a head, the ringleader said) stayed there for a full half-hour before the Campus Police cut it down.
The vigilantes were asked whether they intended to perpetrate any further harm to the victim.
“Yeah, we’re going to have a pregame and halftime show at Stanford.” the ringleader said.
Meanwhile, the man who had started the ruckus, Steve Harvey, was admiring the likeness from afar.
“Basically, I love that,” he said, pointing to the effigy, “and the charges are true. I must show it to my dad.
“Don’t you realize, I've made you famous,” h« shouted to the mob.
"John Wilkes Booth was famous too,” they replied.
“I think it’s all a little silly though,” Harvey 9aid. “The article was meant to be funny. It just shows how people can close themselves off into their own little world.
“If they wanted to get so enraged about something, it's too bad they couldn’t have done something like hang-continued on Page 2)

Phil Kazanjian, senior class president. did a lot of thinking this summer. He thought while he sat in his fraternity house, wiiile he guided a boat dowm the jungle rivers of Disneyland and even while on dates.
In other wrords, Phil did a helluva lot of thinking. Suddenly, like a bolt of lighting, the fertile soil of Kazan-jian's mind bore fruit.
He said. “Let there be a senior class.” And there wras a senior class.
Organizationally, the senior class will be made up of six committees. They are:
•	Senior :iass gift
•	Special events
•	Publicity
•	Fund raising
•	Alumni
•	Senior activities
“We will not meet as a large, unruly body, but rather as a small select group. Instead, the representatives, advisor, committee chairmen and myself will meet and they will report to me,” Kaanjian said, humbly

ADVANCE COPIES
Two things Kazanjian plans for this year are sending copies of the Alumni Review to February and June graduates and initiating a relationship with the El Rodeo to compile a four-year senior resume to be kept on file for job recommendations.
“These things have been planned for many months by me,” he added once again humbly.
Applications are available for membership on the committees and council at the YWCA building. Applicants will be requested to take an interview sometime between Oct. 24-28.
Kazanjian himself will head the senior class gift committee.
“Chairmen will be in complete control of their committees.” he said. “The committees will not wrork the entire semester. Once their task is completed, they will b* dissolved.”
PHI TAUS' BROTHER'
Hog joins
By MARSHA SCARBROUGH
Everyday, the Phi Taus take their pig for a walk. Yesterday, they took him to relax and munch on the grass in front of Doheny Library. The day before, they W’ent to wratch football practice.
“But they threw us out—It was a closed practice,” John Zuanich, co-owner of the pig, explained.
Porky, as the pig is called, is a stunning black, white and pink Berg-shire hog.
He is still young, weighing in at only 53 lbs., but his owners are confident that he will weigh 300 to 350 pounds within six months.
“Then we’ll get a two-man leash.” Mike Morgan, another of Porky's co-owmers. said.
Right now7, the Phi Taus tether Porky with a vivid yellow water-skiing rope. “Well, we’ll use twro ski ropes,” Morgan added.
Zuanich, Morgan and Steve Hill
are the pig’s owners, but Porky is the official mascot for the Phi Tau house. They got Porky on the day of Presents.
“We thought that would be a nice day to get a pig.” they said.
ADPi Vickie Billings has been named an honorary owner. When Porky goes to the fraternity’s parties he sometimes gets scared. Vickie is a very soothing person, it seems.
Phi Tau Fred Forte is Porky’s assistant walker.
Porky’s keepers say he is a very clean pig. “He gets a bath every day, and we spray him with Florient air freshener and sometimes Brut. He’s really the animal type, ya know.”
Porky likes to eat. Mainly he likes to look for roots by digging up the ground with his snout.
He’s a real rooter. In fact, he may be putting in an appearance at a football game soon,” Zuanich said, “but he really likes to root for di-

frat at 'Presents'
chondra.”
He eats eight cups of barley for breakfast and six cups of barley for dinner. But his favorite food is chocolate ice cream.
“He eats it w’henever and wherever he can get it,” Zuanich said. “Actually he'll eat anything, like raw hamburger and even pork.”
Porky also eats out of his owner’s hands. He loves to run and gallop. Pigs are very similar to humans. We read that in the funny papers,” Morgan said.
The Phi Taus violently deny there is any pointed significance in having a pig as their mascot.
“We just got a pig because wre wanted a different mascot no one else would have,” Morgan said.
Of course, Porky has a naturally curly tail, but he only curls it when he's happy. So far. it’s his only trick, but his owners are trying to teach him to jump through a flaming hoop.

“One of the most important objectives of the Peace Corps is to erase the Ugly American image created in foreign countries by the U. S. diplomats and tourists,” Mike Gale, a Peace Corps representative, said in an interview Friday.
Gale, a former USC student, played defensive end on the Trojan 1962 Rose Bowl team.
After graduation, he went into Peace Corps training. On completion of the course he was sent to Margarita Island, 12 miles off the coast of Venezuela, to teach school.
“Venezuelans call the place where the Americans live the Golden Ghetto, and Peace Corps volunteers must prove themselves day after day,” he said.
SINGLE INCIDENT
Gale told of one incident wrhere anti-American attitudes lost ground.
“When I first arrived, my Venezuelan coworker was introducing me to the students in a condescending wray. He was speaking quite rapidly to keep me from understanding, and he asked me to say a fewr words.
He did not expect me to be able to do it. but when I said in Spanish that I was happy to be there and was looking forward to working with them for the next year, they burst into applause."
Gale taught sports and served as
a coach in the Venezuelan school.
“I found the Venezuelan attitude toward sports much different than the American attitude," he said. “The Venezuelans are very good ath'etes, but the ones I taught were undisciplined.
“They are very proud people a 1 would rather quit playing than Ic*: a game. I watched many a <rr mo where the losing team walked crt rather than lose," he said.
Gale said the image most people have of the Peace Corps volunteers braving their way through malar -infested jungles is entirely false. The Peace Corps goes out of their way to put you in a spot where you'll be happy,” he said.
USED TO BEACHES
“When they found out I’d lived in Southern California all my life, and was used to beaches. I was sent to an island in the Caribbean with beautiful beaches and a wonderful climate.
“Once you’ve been in a foreign country for a while you reti: rn to America with a totally different sense of values.” he said.
“USC students in particular don’t really go in for service-type things. I went to school here, I know the feeling. It isn’t give, give, give.
“Travel is the greatest educational process going. I know I gained more from the two years that I spent than I could possibly have given the Venezuleans.’’
