Mr. X's Slogan
The 75th homecoming slogan selected Monday has been discarded by the Homecoming Committee and! replaced by “Our Diamond Year Brings Trojans Near.” The new slogan was written by Bob Gerst, who will receive two tickets to the UCLA football game.
“Homecoming com mittee members voted unanimously to discard the original slogan, “Trojans Cheer Diamond Jubilee Year,” because it would not adapt itself to publicity under anonymous authorship,” Al Mour, homecoming, publicity chairman said. The new slogan has been accepted and approved by Arnold Eddy, head of the homecoming alumni.
Slogan runnerups will divide the gifts as was previously stated.
“Our Diamond Year Brings Trojans Near,” is the theme all floats will follow,” Mour stated.

R Major To Discuss ■amily Life in Austria
Dick Merritt, senior in inter-tional relations, is probably the ly American student on campus io has been a member of an trian family.
[e will relate his experiences, [strated with colored slides, ore the Intereultural Club this imoon at 3:15 in the Interna-ial Students Lounge, lerritt spent two months this imer in Klagenfurt, Southern stria, under the auspices ol seriment in International Liv , a Los Angeles women's up, as a representative of this r,
buring his stay in the town, 10 |es north of the Yugoslavian *er, Merritt followed the reg-daily rountfrie of the fam-
ily. But he admits having had some trouble understanding them.
Purpose of the visit he ex* plained, was to show on a small scale that international friendship and understanding could be achieved. It also provided him an opportunity to see European life from the inside.
In addition to slides of Austria, some of Venice, Munich, and Germany, which he visited more briefly, will be screened.
Merritt, who has attended SC since a freshman, lives in San Gabriel. He became interested in international relations wrhile debating in high school.
The talk will be followed by a question and answer period and refreshments.
Public assistance and social se curity are approaching universality under the present administration brightening the future of this program, according to Rowell Perkins, assistant secretary for the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare.
Perkins, speaking on “Trends in Social Security Legislation,” told students of the School of Social Work yesterday that 1954 amendments to old age and sur vivor’s insurance laws have brought in many new workers who otherwise have not been cov ered in the past.
Increased Benefits “These increases in benefits to those over the age of 65 and others needing public assistance have been brought about to keep pace with the changing economic conditions of our country,” Per kins stated.
The federal government has now stepped in and said that they will go 50-50 with the respective state governments for aid to the aged, blind, children, and to the totally disabled.
“This means that the federal government is now matching the state funds,” Perkins added, “and giving greater aid to those who do not receive a sufficient amount from their pensions, to cover other problems.”
More Self-Sufficiency Increased emphasis is also being placed on making these individuals more self-sufficient in stead of “paying them to get them out of their jobs when they reach 65 years of age.”
This reserved trend of keeping people active in the community and making them spiritually happy is more important than receiving money and stepping out of their community.
The department of health, education. and welfare, of which Perkins is assistant secretary, is a newly-organized federal department under the leadership of Mrs. Oveta Culp Hobby. The department came into existence in 1953 under the present administration.
Campaign Material The organization of this department has served as election and campaign material for the Republican party. Last month, the department approved 600,000 social security checks as a result of recent amendments to existing laws, according to Perkins.
Perkins graduated from Harvard College in 1945 and from Harvard Law School in 1949. Since then he has been engaged in general law practice, and served in various capacities on state bar associations and state legislature committees.
In January of this year he was nominated to his present post. His appointment was confirmed by the U. S. Senate in March.
Rules, Entries for Decorating Ready
Rules and applications for University Avenue Homecoming decorations are available now in 228 SU, Chairman Dick Hildenbrand announced yesterday.
APhiO Knows As AChiO Know No One Knows
The mixup between Alpha Phi Omega, national service fraternity, and Alpha Chi Omega, social sorority has gone too far.
Last semester the Daily Trojan twice listed the APhiO president as president of AChiO.
There wras a slight error recently in the DT about a smoker held by the service fraternity. The DT said AChIO was holding a smoker. APhiO is still trying to coax prospective pledges off the front steps of the AChiO house.
Yesterday the Security First National Bank mailed an AChiO credit clip for $36.50 to the Student Union office of APhiO.
As a result of the confusion, the fraternity is in favor of merging the two organizations and1 is offering some of their office space to the sorority.
Wally French, membership chairman, requests all men students who showed up at the AChiO house last Friday night to come to the APhiO office, 220 SU, for interviews.
They will be held today, 9 to 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.; tomorrow, 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.; Monday 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., and 3 to 4 p.m.; Tuesday,
9 to 10 a.m., 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., and 4 to 5 p.m.; and Wednesday, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 3 to 4 p.m.

NewTelevision StationtoOpen November 1
A new television station will open on campus November 1. Its shows will be aimed at the interests of the University students and SC talent will be used for acting, writing, and prop work. It will be closed-circuit, transmitting pictures only to sets which are plugged into the transmitter.
The station, which is being sponsored by the telecommunications school, will be run on an experimental basis for about a month. During this time, all students are welcome to see the shows in the Hancock Foundation, room 231 on Mondays and Wednesdays from 3:15 to 4:15 p.m. There will be a viewing set there, but eventually the telecommunications school hopes to branch out with a circuit to the Row. It is hoped that students will participate by coming up at this time and giving their opinions.
The equipment and facilities of the former SC station KTHE including Studio B will be used during the experiment. Howrever, in the words of Richard Tuber, “We are going to expand and hope eventually to have our own facilities.”

Deputy Mayor Backs Poulson OnSegregation
By N orene Charnofsky
Mayor Poulson’s attempts to root out racial segregation in the Los Angeles Fire Department were lauded vigorously yesterday by Deputy Mayor of Los Angeles John J. Irwin in his speech at the Faculty Club luncheon.
“Many people have the impression that Poulson has blithely stepped in where angels fear to tread,” Irwin said. “But he has tried to accomplish what legally is his duty with a minimum of social confusion.”
Irwin denied the often-heard charge that Poulson has been making political capital of the recent Supreme Court decision on segregation in the schools.
Mayor Takes Action “Mayor Poulson took action on this issue last September,” he claimed. “That was long before the Supreme Court’s decision.” According to Irwin, Poulson sent a letter to the President of the Board of Fire Commissioners in September asking him to investigate charges of segregation made by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
In January, Irwin said, a hear ing was held to formulate a plan of action on the problem. At that time, Fire Chief Alderson, the Board of Fire Commissioners, and the Mayor agreed to begin a “gradual change in policy.” Gradual Change In the next six months, they decided, there should he a gradual correction of segregation policies. It was felt that any drastic and sudden change “might seriously impair the efficiency of the department, with resulting hazard to our citizens.”
An investigation in May, however, produced evidence that the Mayor’s intentions for a policy change were being thwarted.
Irwin claimed that for the first time in eight years men taking the civil service exam for firemen were required to pass an roal test, in addition to the usual written exam.
No Negroes Pass He said that, curiously, not one Negro of the 30 w^ho took the orals passed. This was hard to believe since one of the men had scored a 95 on his written exam.
Mildred Younger, Republican candidate for state senator, will “pull no punches” today concerning present political issues when she returns to her alma mater for the ASSC Forum sponsored address, according to Steve Robertson, forum chairman. She will speak at 3:15 p.m. in 129 FH.
Mrs. Younger, who defeated State Senator Jack Tenney in the primaries, is pitted against Richard Richards for the senatorial post. Richards is scheduled to speak on campus within a few weeks, Robertson added.
Mrs. Younger, who was the outstanding woman graduate of SC in 1942, is now considered one of the outstanding women in Republican circles. She served as secretary of the Republican National Platform Committee in 1952.
Student body vice president during her days at SC. Mrs. Younger is the third woman in history to be an officer on the platform committee. She was also chairman of the subcommittee on civil rights.
At the 1952 National GOP Convention, she gained national recognition for her speech seconding the nomination of Chief Justice (then governor) Earl Warren for president.
While a student here, she was intercollegiate debate and allied speech arts champion seven times.
Mrs. Younger was graduated magna cum laude and received the Town and Gown Award for the outstanding woman graduate. She was a member of Alpha Delta Pi sorority.
She was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Mortar Board, Amazons, Alpha Lambda Delta, Religious Conference, ASSC Senate, and several professional sororities.
Mrs. Younger has owned and operated her own small arts and crafts business and has been a professional lecturer on crafts, art history, status of women, and political party structure.
“Only 100 persons attended the appearance of U. S. Senator Kuchel yesterday,” Robertson said. “I feel the attendance could be helped very much if the faculty would inform their students of the forum speakers,” he added.
Jazz Star to Play At Open House
Pete Daily and his Chicagoans will supply the music for the Zeta Tau Alpha open house Saturday, Social Chairman Joan Musgraves announced yesterday.
The open house will begin at 4:30 p.m., immediately following the SC-Cal football game.

Miss Musgraves extended an in* vitation to all SC students, including the "Bermuda shorts crew.”
