CLASS SEES OLD
omestic Art Is New Addition to Home Economic Department
Old-time spinning such as our great-reatgrandmothers did years ago was demonstrated in the Home Economics department yesterday at 3 o’clock to members of the department and vis-tors.
The demonstration, In charge of Miss Mabel Mears, head of the Domestic Art Department, was made by Mrs. Mary J. Holloway of Whittier. Irs. Holloway, before coming to California from Pennsylvania, a number of years ago, did all her own spinning. The material with which she worked lyesterday was tow, a coarse material which was used for bed ticking. The demonstration proved interesting as well as very instructive to the stu-idents.
The spinning wheel as well as the jtow wras furnished by Barker Brothers. The wheel is valued at $50 and was secured by Miss Mears for a period o! two weeks.
New Addition Domestic art is a new addition to the Home Economics Department this year. At present there are sixty-five girls enrolled in the course. The laboratory is well equipped for work. Donations are being made by inter-I ested persons ln the way of old handwork and homespun material, and is greatly appreciated by the department. Miss Mears expects that in the near future a loom may be installed as weaving is at present very much in vogue.
Soon aft^r Thanksgiving an exhibit will be made of the hats which the classes are now making, also the handiwork. At this time the Domestic Science classes will serve tea.
The enrollment of the Domestic Science Department is one hundred this semester. Miss Gertrude York, who is head of the department is planning a series of dinners to be given by the classes In the near future.

frosh team does not PLAY PACIFIC COLLEGE
Contrary to the announcement in yesterday's calendar, published in the Ti-ojun, the U. S. C frosh will not play the College of the Pacific on next Saturday Their schedule terminated with the big game with the embryo Bruins from the state university, leaving the varsity to play the final games of the season as is the case with the Pacific
•	oast Cpnference members. The freshmen completed a successful s>*a-“on with the California game, having won all but one of their games by overwhelming scores, defeating Stan-
ford’s
peagreeners by a greater score
than the Berkeley frosh were able to Put over on last Saturday.
U' OF C. FRESHMEN
DEFEAT 8TANFORD
(Exclusive Dispatch) ■TAnford UNIVERSITY, Nov. 13 University of California freshmen de-the first-year team of Stanford tlieir annual football match here to-,“y by the score of 38 to 7. The Stan-ro team scored in the third period *n Judy made a touchdown, after inmg thirty yards with a forward P 1“ **°dges, left half, starred for rnla, making four touchdowns.
cup, offered by Mr. Miller of the California Theater to the institution which secures the greatest number of memberships ln this roll call, Is already rife between the girls of U. S. C. and those of S. B. U. C. Last Saturday the young ladles of the Southern Branch succeeded In securing approximately 5000 memberships and the girls of this school are out to eclipse that record.
Before a group of coeds selected from the various organizations on the campus, to start the campaign, Mr. Clark outlined briefly the past work and future needs of the Red Cross. In part, he said, "Last year the local chapter spent In charitable work $190,000, and succeeded In collecting only $89,-
000.	Los Angeles is the largest city on tho Pacific Coast and should subscribe 100 per cept ln the present drive. It is a matter of honor and pride to support this great work, and every loyal citizen who has a spark of benevolence in him should wear the 1921 button. The Red Cross is a body which functions perpetually, and is the one form of charity which gan effectually alleviate the suffering of mankind.”
In speaking of the attempt of some persons to besmudge the honesty of the organization by charges of corruptions, Mr. Clark made a warm defense. “Every charitable institution must have some overhead expense, and It Is because of this fact that persons have been able to make the charge of graft. However, the Red Cross ln this city has had but 4 per cent overhead, while a certain other charitable body here has an overhead loss of 60 per cent.” People Give Generously
Figures from the national committee completely refute any such propaganda. Last year, by virtue of careful business management, $1.01 has been available for every dollar contributed. Since 1917 the American people have given to the Red Cross $400,000,000 for its work, and every dollar has been used for the purpose for which It was given.
The appearance of petty shirkers was denounced by Mr. Clark; ‘‘it has been brought to my attention that persons, either through some mistake, or to dodge their duty, have stooped to the trick of wearing buttons of last year. It is urgently requested that anyone caught selling these buttons be immediately reported and the source of difficulty be determined. It may be that laBt year’s buttons are being sold by mistake."
In conclusion he said: “A heart and a dollar is all you need to do your share towards helping us take care of the needy. You can keep your heart but give us the dollar.”
Under the leadership of Marion Curtis, Jennette Green and Grace Cowper, the girls will be organized in groups on Friday and be given the material for the work. This year receipts are not to he given and 1921 buttons only will signify the active support of the Red Cross. Every girl who desires to aid in the soliciting of the downtown streets Is requested to give her name to one of these leaders at the Y. W. C. A. headquarters.
U. S. C. has 6500 buttons to distribute. Gangs or groups of twos and threes will be used on the N. E. and
S	W. corners. Assistance from about twenty boys will also be required to help ln the task.
Strong Support at U. S. C.
Opinion on the campus is strong in support of the undertaking. Howard Butterfield, when asked his opinion, said "I am sure strong for the lied Cross. I was right in the midst of the Red Cross work ln France, and always tecelved the best kind of consideration from tho Red Cross people. It was through the Red Cross that the soldiers Vecelved the homelike assistance. It was the most efficient organization in existence, and merits the united support of every college man and woman.
An opinion held hy many is that the work of the Red Cross was finished with the war. However, bulletins from Washington. D. C„ show that 26,000 men are still In the hospitals recuperating from the war. Last year 300,000 American babies died before they were one year old because of Ignorance and indifference, and 750,000 American people died of preventable disease, of which 200,000 deaths were cauSed by tuberculosis; 3395 cases of practically destitutibn were taken care of in Los Angeles alone last year, and 4000 cases
U1(\Vhen interviewed, Marion CurtiB atHted “Let us open our eyes to the ?ict that the Red Cross is still alive to its mother task. We e*PMt to «° through with this task, and the girls are going to respond nobly, hav ng already taken some 350 buttons to
U Los^ngeles, whose quota Is 100 000 Is expected to take at least 120,000 memberships That U. 8^ C. will do her share in raising the fund. Ib the opinion of Gwynn Wilson, student body president, who said. I am that the students will respond will ingly, when they realize the woitbl-ness of the cause.

Today's chapel services at 11:40 will be the third of the series of meetings held this week ln the Chapel to observe the International Week of Prayer.

Special music will be supplied by the Choral club under the direction of Professor Cogswell and soloists from the College of Music.

The contralto solo will be sun by Miss O. A. Luhring.
Evidently fearful of calling forth a new form of tub in disguise, the frosh are dutifully dividing attention from their party to a much more important if not pleasant occupation. They are busily carrying wood out to Bovard Field in preparation for the bonfire feature of the Pajamarino, November 24.
One of the verdant ones remarked that gathering wood was his favorite form of night exercise before donning his pajamas, which incidentally demands an explanation on the part of his superiors, that the Pajamarino is for from a sleepy affair, as he will eventually realize.
ARIZONA CAPTAIN REGAINS SIGHT
Captain Slonaker, quarterback of the Arizona eleven, who lost his sight in the game at Pomona, last Saturday, Is now recovered, and has returned home.
Will Be Given at Gamut Club, on December 8th and 9th
CHARACTERS ARE CHOSEN
Paul House and Miss Mitchell Have Been Selected for Leads
Tickets will go on sale the first of next week for “Mister Antonio," to be staged December 8 and 9, at the Gamut club by the College of Oratory.
"Mister Antonio” Is a four-act play by Booth Tarkington, a playright ai.d author, whose reputation has placed him among the foremost ln this line. This play was also made famous on the stage by the renowned actor, Otis Skinner. It lmd a long run in New York und also on the road. "Mister Antonio" Is a high-powered comedy drafcia, and was chosen by the College of Oratory because of Its Intensely interesting atcion and amusing lines. It is capable of getting a laugh out of the most serious-minded individual while, on the other hand, it containfrlncidents that hold Its audience. Interest never lags throughout the four acts, but keeps the audience joyfully W'onde^ing until the final curtain falls.
The scenes are laid in a small village in New York state.
Miss Florence Hubbard, who Is coaching the play, is making every effort to round the large caste into first-class form. The finishing touches und rough spots are being smoothed out at the daily rehearsals.
Although the entire caste Is not released as yet by Miss Hubbard, the mafTi characters have been settled upon.
During the four acts the interest centers around a very amusing and optimistic Italian, otherwise known as Mr. Antonio. His peculiar philosophy of life is unusually entertaining. This part is to be portrayed by Paul Howse, a student at the College of Law. He comes to U. S. C. from Poly High, where he was prominent in dramatics. Miss Mitchell takes the part of June, who plays opposite “Tony.” Before the week is up the rest of the caste will be definitely announced.
The tickets for the event will be popularly priced at fifty and seventy-five cents. This is well within tho reach of everyone's pocketbook, and should insure u large sale among the student body.
Mission Play Dancers Will Appear at Spanish Program
Typical Spanish dances by Sr. and Sra. Zorraquinos, premier dancers of tbe famous San Gabriel Mission Play will be one of the distinctive features of the first of the Spanish series, to be presented tomorrow morning at 11:40 in the ‘Y’ hut. The senores Zorro-qulnos are far and Justly famed for the graceful and characteristic interpretation of their native dances.
Another entertaining number on the program will be a talk by Mrs. Hugh Lowther, member of the Spanish department, on her trip through Spain, made last summer. Mrs. Lowther is a fascinating speaker, and has many in-
teresting anecdotes to tell about Cas tillian and provincial people, their customs and their country. One quaint provincialism she found in southern Spain is a phrase of leave-talking instead of saying, “Give my regards to your wife," when taking leave of a friend, a Spanish gentleman of a southern province says, "Que se en-gruesa su esposa” (may your wife grow fat). Obesity is highly desired by these Spanish women.
Mrs. Lowther’s talk will be illus trated by some very beautiful colored lantern slides, from photographs which she took during her travels.

Is’ That So?
The following appeared in the editorial columns of the Dally Palo Alto, Stanford’s paper, on November 8: “Coach Powell’s gang of scrappers came through up-north, and at the rate they are going now, nothing will stop them this side of PaBadena.” Evllently a 10-0 beating doesn’t count iu the Card's minds, or else University avenue Is south of the 1 asadena city limits.
Then this appeared in the Utah Chronicle on November 9:
“BERKELEY, Cal., Nov. 8.—The University of California football eleven this, afternoon decisively won the right to represent the Pacific coaBt In the annual intersectlonal game with the East at Pasadena New Year’s day by trimming Washington State college by a score of 49 to 0.”	•
An the following emblazoned the editorial columns of the Daily Californian on the same date:
“ 'On to Pasadena’ Is the cry of the University of Southern California Trojan. The southerners had better cry, 'On to Berkeley' before they think of making any such pretentious noise.” Well? Yeah, We thought the same thing.
Tickcta for tho Theo. Karle concert to bo held this afternoon ut 2:30 In the chapel, nre being Bold rapidly, nnd as the number of scats Is limited Lance and Lute, which is in charge of the program, urges that the sale of tho remaining tickets be concluded as soon as possible.

ENTERTAINMENT SOUGHT BY BLASE NEWSHOUNDS
Jaded members of the U. S. C. Press Club will meet In the Journalism building tills ufternoon at three o’clock to decide on new forms of entertainment which are not too utterly common place for them to Indulge in. In search for something new, the typewriter ticklers have lined up Tuey Far Low’s Chinese opium den where seventy yards of noodles and adequate quail titles of ehoin mein may be consumed for 85 yen. In all probability this will be the place decided upon, though discussion will take place.

CARD WOMEN ACCOMPLISHED BONE ROLLERS
Stanford Co-Eds Smoke Cigarettes and Shoot Craps, Says Feminine Writer
Girls, here’s something to think about! An article appeared reeently In one of Stanford's campus publications accusing the co-edB of that institution of excess smoking and shooting of craps. The writer, a co-ed herself, made gome bold assertions, and lt Is wondered by Tho Trojan If such Is the cuso ut other universities, particularly U. S. C.
"When one can smell the gentle aroma of cigarette tobacco floating down the corridors at an Institution of higher education like Stunford university," or, “when one woman can clean up the best crap shooter on the campus In the, noble sport of Nubian polo, lt Ib time,” says Miss Hocking, the author of the article in mention, “for the women students to frown down entirely Buqh practices.” She goes on further to seriously state that Stanford girls are smoking more generally than uny one haB any Idea of.
The fact that men smoke and shoot craps is to her no excuse for women doing so.
"Ye gods!" she ejaculates, “what would tho world come to if the women followed men’s examples ln everything!”
Miss Hocking believes that the penalty for such actions should be suspension from the university.
