Nothing has been overlooked that will make this event a success. The large circus tent prepared for the occasion will contain wonders of all descriptions. The trained pig which has been secured is unique among the trained pigs of the world. The clowns who have the animal in charge are equal in their fuinniness to the famous “Slivers." The wild man is a specimen of a race of wild men never before introduced into any part of Southern California. Anthropomorphic societies are vieing with each other in their attempt to secure this specimen for study. The Juniors promise good music, but refuse to divulge the exact nature of it.

S. C. Orchestra will give its annual concert at assembly tomorrow morning promptly at 11:40. The program of the concert and entertainment will include a list of twenty-five talented performers. It gives promise of being particularly clever and interesting. The opening numbers will be the rendering of Ballet Egyptienne by the orchestra, which will be followed by classical and popular selections. The Hicksville Rubes are the scream of the entertainment, and will fur- nish their “sidesplitting comedy.” Cliff Henderson, well-known Yiddish impersonator, will perform his pranks. Miss Elene O’Haver will give some whistling solos. The violin soloist and rube-comedi-an, Elmer Kendricks, is slated to create a sensation. The Jubilee Club will “deliver some entirely new and original goods in the song-medley line.” Tickets for the orchestra’s concert tomorrow are obtainable at the book exchange for IS cents each. 11 RELATE WAR EXPERIENCES TODAY Uncensored war news from the prison camps of Europe will be given in chapel at 9:50 today by J.

A. and the Y. 'V. C. A. OF CONFLICT IS HEARO Debate Teams Prepare for Contest at Exposition Park on Freshman-Sophomore Day I'h• theory that love comes to a Man !jut once is as antiquated as the uj<'a that a bath once a week is sufficient Meeting in woefully wordy conflict, freshmen and sophomore two-man debating teams will soar to the heights of flowery oratory and plunge to the depths of profound logic in their annual forensic contest on Thursday afternoon, May 4, at Exposition I’ark. The subject of the debate, which is but part of the program now being planned for Fresnman-Sophomore I)ay, is: “Resolved, that journalists should be licensed by the state or federal government.” Tryouts for places on the teams will be held the latter part of this week, sophomore men, who are thinking of entering the tryouts, should cohfer with R. L. Olson. Freshmen contestants should give their names to Martin Miller. T PLACE IN CONTEST George Fenimore and Floyd Farley Take Second and Third Honors, Respectively Uugene Blalock of the College of Liberal Arts again maintained his distinction upon the platform last Thursday evening in assembly hall by winning first place in the peace oratorical contest. George Fenimore of the College of I.aw carried away second honors, and Floyd Farley was awarded third place. Dr. E. Edgar Cole, Attorney Jacob Bisel and Professor II. Hanson of Manual Arts were the judges on delivery. The judges on thought and composition were Professors C. H. Marvin. O. C. Minear and H. L. Lunt. Mr. Blalock will represent the university in the Southern California Intercollegiate Contest, May 5. After thirteen days of concert work throughout the central part of the State, the Men’s Glee Club returned home last Sunday afternoon. Sixteen men made the trip, which was both musically and financially successful. Go By Auto The entire trip was made by auto, a large six-cylinder motor truck. The sightseeing bus made an ideal means of transportation, for not only did the men enjoy the trip through the country not reached by train but also they appreciated the fact that they could leave for the next place when they chose and did not have to rush or wait for trains. Leaving two weeks ago, on Mon-* day, March 27, the boys made the trip to Bakersfield the first day and gave a concert in that city in the evening. From Bakersfield the men went to Taft, Delano, Portersville, Exeter, Visalia and Hanford. Sunday was spent in Tulare and Monday night the second week of concerts began. Monday the men sang at Tulare, Tuesday at Fresno, Wednesday at Clovis, Thursday at Strathmore, and Friday at Lindsay. Saturday the return trip was made as far as Bakersfield, where the club remained overnight and Sunday the rest of the trip home was made. That the club was appreciated everywhere, was shown by the enthusiastic reception given the boys. The club easily succeeded in upholding its reputation as “The greatest club on the coast.” BEAR FRESHMAN VICTORS IN MEET WITH STANFORD No one was more surprised than the California freshmen when they defeated the Stanford frosh in Saturday’s track meet by a score of 65 1-3 to 56 2-3. Tho chief event of the contest was the record made by House of Stanford, who made a total of 'twenty-three points for his team
