FOR NEXT YEAR BY EXEC. COMMITTEE
Declaring that he consideerd the jiocedure of the Student Body Ex-*ntive Committee in its selection t a manager for The Trojan distinctly ill-advised and unfair, Marc
S.	Goodnow, head of the journalism department, late last night said he would request the organization to reconsider its action.
Mr. Goodnow stated he believed it unfair to make charges against a man and take action against him without giving him an opportunity to state his side of the case, as it appeared to him, the committee had done.
| Certain persons, Mr. Goodnow be-} lieves, may have listened to the (tongue of gossip and scandal without making any investigation. He stated he will ask A. S. B. President Reeves to call a meeting of the Executive Committee to hear and discuss charges made against any candidate.

LEW WILES, ’23
Freshman. New York Manual Arts High School.
Killtor Weekly. Reporter New York Globe.
1 have come to the conclusion that I am a chaser. When I left high school, six years ago, I started in pursuit of the will o' the wisp. Elusive Will always kept two jumps «\ead. Growing disgusted, I came back to Los Angeles and commenced search for the House Opposite. The House Opposite proved to be a miscellaneous collection of houses on University avenue.
Since coming to U. S. C. I have still been on the chase. Here the chase took me to all parts of the campus and mysterious corners of Southern California. I chased news for The Trojan and credits and—that is all, on the campus. Over the various parts of Southern California I chased bugs. All three were much easier to get than Will.
I was in several sanguinary battles during my two years in the Marine Corps. One of these battles was a siege which lasted 13 months. It was the siege of the Catskills. There the outfit was attacked by long-necked demons; square, white demons; brown, foamy demons; and long, slender demons of all colors and brands. The demons won. but I was able to crawl back to the bosom of my family.
When / was a mere youngster I showed great talent in writing. After a short .prosperous period of writing, my father hid his check book and I have written but very seldom since. Mr. Goodnow says I cannot write, Miss Biles says I cannot write, and “everitor”
I ever saw says I cannot write. In the face of such overwhelming odds, one would naturally quit.
But I am not natural. Some day some one is going to leave his check book unguarded and I am going to show the world that I am able to write at least one big one. Then maybe I will be able to got in the Quill Club.
1 hate to deprive the readers of The Trojan of a complete story of my rather stormy life, for I have done many things that will live down through the centuries. All these deeds are on record in the county archives, so all one has to d ' is to get permission from the chief to read these glowing accounts. This amount will have to suffice, for I have already exceeded the limit set by a parsimonious editor.
