The records say “yes.” Two weeks ago the Indians were mbed 72-0 by UCLA’s Bruins to whom Oregon State had gone down 61-0. Saturday, the Tribe lost 30-26 to

Washington State, the team took apart, 39-0. The Trojans have lost once. Stanford has three de-feats.
But the Indians’ feelings say they’ll put up a hard fight. They are pointing for SC as a hungry dog points for the bone his master is holding just out of his reach. They know that a win over Troy is the only thing that can add luster to a season already blotted by Navy, UCLA and WSC.
Can Clinch Bowl If the Trojans win and Oregon loses to the Bruins, then SC will have clinched the Rose Bowl bid.
Jess Hill’s speedy team reached the entrance to Pasadena and extended its unbeaten PCC mark to four by rolling over Oregon State before 30,065 fans.
Whenever the Trojans had the ball, it seemed as though they wouldn't give it away until they had brought it into the end zone. Their swiftness and offensive line play was much too much for the Beavers, who did well to hold SC to the predicted 34-point edge.
Aramis Dandoy, taking over the tailback duties with Jon Arnett resting out a sore knee, couldn’t be stopped. He rarl through the Beavers with the same proficiency that made him the highest scorer on the team last year.
Score Twices
After Quarterback Jim Contratto scored on a 48-yard jaunt in the first quarter and Ron Calabria, sub wingback, on a five yard run in the second, Dandoy went into paydirt twice in the third period. He tallied from 21 and 10 yards cut, and left the field the games leading ground gainer with 103 yards and a 7.35 average.

SC Penalties
Penalties slowed the Trojans’ attack. They were marched back on four 15-yard infractions. OSC’s Ron Aschbacher, the 212 pound right tackle, also helped contain SC’s drive. Playing 58 minutes, he was in on most of the tackles and halted Troy on fourth down situations.
Troy fullback Jim Decker and third-string wingback Frank Clayton got off two long runs. Decker scampered 48 yards and Clayton raced 40 yards to set up SC’s second touchdown.

Design Contest °f Toda^'s English Readin^s Begins Today
KUSC-TV Broadcasts Begin Today
KUSC-TV begins operation of its closed circuit network today at 3:15 p.m.. according to Dick Tuber, station publicity director.
The broadcast can only be viewed on a special wired TV set which is located in 315 Hancock Hall.
Entries in the “Walls of Troy” contest which begins today, may be turned in at the University Bookstore magazine counter in the Student Union, according to Bill Ruch, chairman of the Wall6 of Troy Committee.
The contest gives Trojans an opportunity to design the Walls of Troy by submitting ideas for one section of the wall.
The contest is open to all students. Anyone who has questions concerning the contest is invited to attend the Greater University Committee meeting in the Senate chamber, 418 SU, at 2:15 this afternoon.
The Walls of Troy Committee is a subcommittee of the Great-er-University Committee which is chairmanned by Fred Fagg III.
The general design for the proposed walls—brick pillars with wrought iron fencing between— has already been determined by the committee. The purpose of the contest is to select a specific detailed design.
Highly elaborate designs will be discarded because of their prohibitive expense, Fagg said.
Judges of the contest will be the Greater-U committee, and will be based on economy of construction, function and significance of design, harmony with existing campus architecture, originality, and adaptability of ideas.
Two Rose Bowl tickets will be among the prizes awarded the winner.
Contest rules are:
1.	Each design must be one wall section, 15 to 20 feet in length and 7 feet in height.
2.	Each entry should be submitted on standard 8% x 11 inch typing paper.
3.	Name, address, and telephone number of the person entering the design must be printed clearly on the back of each entry. The paper should not be folded.
4.	Each contestant may enter as many drawings as he wishes as long as each idea is distinct.
5.	All entries must be submitted by 4 p.m. Nov. 10.
The contest is open to all students with constructive ideas, regardless of their artistic abilities, Ruch said.
The poems of Robert Burns will be featured at today’s noon English readings in 29 FH by Dr. William D. Templeman, professor of English.
Templeman will read and comment on some of the worldwide favorites of the famous Scottish poet. All students and faculty members are invited.
“The appeal of Burns to all types of people cannot be easily explained1 but it must be acknowledged,” Templeman said. He added that Burns had written on a large number of subjects and used a variety of dra-
matic approaches in his poems.
“He writes about the simple folk,” Dr. Templeman said. “He adds touches of romance and excitement to his works and has made his readers aware of the vigorous emotional enthusiasm displayed in his writings,” Templeman added.
Dr. Templeman, also of Scottish descent, 'said that Burns wrote most of his poetry in the Scottish dialect and1 at time* wrote in standard English.
The weekly readings of the English department feature a different speaker every Monday.

FALLEN TOWER — Band members inspect the ruins of the observation tower which collapsed on Bovard Field Saturday. Fifteen were injured.	i
Reporter Tells Of Observing Tower Collapse
by David C. Henley When I walked onto Bovard Field Saturday morning, I had intended to report for the Daily Trojan the practice for a pageant put on by 3000 musicians from 26 local high school bands.
Instead, I was a witness to a disaster which sent 15 persons to the hospital and left 5000 spectators speechless and trembling.
Just before noon, I was on the field talking to some of the band members who were participating in the event. Suddenly we heard a yell from the south side of the (Continued on Page Three)
Judy Green and Joan Belyea are in charge of dance bids, and Diane Freeman is chairman of ticket sales for the Jubilee Show.
Free Tickets Four ticket holders will win seats on the 50-yard line for the UCLA game, Gerst said. One pair of seats will be given to the person with the winning danoe bid and the other pair to the student with the winning show ticket. The tickets will be drawn at the end of this week.
Four hundred tickets must be sold before an intermission band can be hired, and the limited seating capacity of Bovard makes it important for students to secure their tickets today.
Anthony to Play Sherman Weiss, chairman of the HC dance committee, said that Ray Anthony will play for the Homecoming Dance. He has promised to play all the tunes that r.ade him famous, as well as many new hits.,
In addition, the presentation of Helen of Troy and her Court will be a highlight of the night. The dance, slated for Nov. 13, after the Washington game, will last from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. The dance will be informal.
Today is the deadline for float and nonfloat applications from fraternities, sororities, and other organizations, according to Float Chairman Vince Thompson.
“Only 26 float applications have been turned in,” Thompson said. “Since this is our Diamond Year Homecoming, we should build more floats than we did in the past to make the parade the best in our history,” he added.
Fraternities will receive points for building floats plus additional points and trophies for taking top prizes.
“The points will go toward the grand sweepstakes trophy presented to the organization which enters the most Homecoming events and chalks up the most points,” Thompson said.
A diagram 'showing how the float is to be constructed should accompany the float, he added.
Any organization that doesn’t" have an entry blank can secure one from Thompson at the Alpha Rho Chi house until 5 p.m. today.
Applications can be turned in to him or to the student activities adviser’s office, 228 SU.
An entry fee of S5 for floats and $2.50 for nonfloats is required.

Final dress rehearsals this weekend concluded almost two months of preparations for the drama department production “Beyond the Horizon,” which opens tomorrow night in Bovard Auditorium.
The play by Eugene O’Neill is a dramatic melodrama of the love of two brothers, Andrew and Robert Mayo, played by John Le-Vann and Paul Phillips, for the same woman, Ruth Atkins, acted by June Moncur. When Andrew leaves home after Robert and Ruth marry, the three characters begin to degenerate.
Challenging Parts “These are challenging parts,” said Dr. Herbert M. Stahl, director, “but interesting because the three people begin in the prime of life and end in hopeless futility and death.”
Eugene O’Neill won the Pulitzer Prize for “Beyond the Horizon” although it was his first full-length play.
“Melodrama had a strong appeal when the play was written, Stahl said, “We had to eliminate some passages. O’Neill wrote a 2-year-old child into the original play, but we had to cut that part.” Dr. Stahl said that the problems of handling a very small child onstage were just “insurmountable.”
Supporting Players
Supporting players are Neil Shaver, a senior in speech who plays the father, James Mayo, Andrew, and Robert; Sue Husted, drama senior who plays Ruth’s widowed mother, Mrs. Atkins; Paul Marchese, graduate in cinema, plays Andrew and Robert’s uncle, Captain Dick Scott; William F. Croarkin, graduate in telecommunications, plays a farm hand, Ben; and Ramon L. Ponce, sophomore in cinema, does Doctor Fawcett.
The play will open every night at 8:30. Final performance will be Saturday. Tickets may be purchased at the box office before the performance. Charge for adults is $1, children 50 cents. Students presenting activity books will be j admitted free.

Political Scientist Forecasts Gains For Democrats
By David C. Henley
Defeat for the Republicans and substantial gains for the Democrats in tomorrow’s election! were forecast Friday by Dr. Carl* ton C. Rodee, chairman of politi* cal science department,
“Seasoned reporters and experts all over the eountry hav« conceded a Democratic victorj for this year. The onJy question seems to be: by what margin wil they win,” Dr. Rodee said.
A glance at leading magazines and newspapers will show thai many political pundits are stick' ing their necks out by making predictions which seem very posi tive, he said.
“Influential magazines like US News, World Report, and Loot have completed national survey! which indicate substantial Demo cratic gains. The Gallup pollster! have pointed to the greater num ber of Democratic voters in thi United States. Recent articles bj the political writers of the New York Times indicate a stronj Democratic trend, Rodee added.
Democrats Will Win Why will the Democrats wii this year after a smashing defeat in 1952? Dr. Rodee gives thesi reasons:
(1) It is normal for an administration to have a setback at it4 midterm. This is evidenced bj President Hoover’s loss of Congress in 1930 and Truman’s Re (Continued on Page 4]
