IFC Probes PiKA Engine Paint Daubing
Who painted the Pi Kappa Alpha fire engine with gaudy yellow enamel Wednesday night?
This suddenly became the main issue of yesterday’s Inter-Fraternity Council meeting as representatives of the Pi Kappa Alpha house publicly accused Alpha Tau Omega fraternity men of smearing the newly painted truck with bright yellow.
A dozen Kappa Alpha men spent Thursday morning cleaning the engine with paint thinner to’ get the enamel off before it dried completely. Damage to the engine was approximately $43 plus labor costs. The vehicle had just been painted the customary red by Earl Schibe, a local car painting establishment, and bore his credit line at the time of the smearing.

Professional Secretary.
The National Secretaries Association in New York selected the women to take the tests, which have been passed by only 360 professional secretaries in the nation in the past four years. The examination is intended to place secretaryship on a professional level. It also helps businessmen identify secretaries capable of filling top-level positions.
Based on actual secretarial duties and responsibilities, and not on textbook material alone, the 12-hour test includes personal adjustment and human relations, business law, economics and business administration, secretarial accounting, stenography, general secretarial and office procedures.
Dr. Albert C. Fries, head of the SC department of office administration, is a member of the Institute of Certifying Secretaries and is chairman of the Test Centers Committee. Mrs. Ruth Toothaker, administrative assistant in the School of Commerce, will be in charge of the examination.
Public Readings Begin Monday

Selections will be of good literature chosen on the basis of wide appeal, with emphasis on the writings of modern British and American authors of poetry and prose, according to Dr. Lionel Stevenson, department head.
Dr. Frank C. Baxter, professor of English who is on the CBS Television network coast-to-coast each Sunday noon with his “Now and Then” program, will be the first reader on campus Monday.
★ ★ ★ White Stallion Replaces Nag In Mascot Job
(Bulletin: Trojan Knight President Don Daves said late yesterday that all students who plan to sit in the rooting section tonight must wear white shirts or blouses or they will have to sit near the goal line.)
A new Trojan Horse will charge onto the Coliseum track to highlight pre-game ceremonies of tonight’s SC-TCU clash.
Knight President Don Daves said the white stallion, ridden by Tommy Trojan, will be Troy’s permanent mascot, replacing the off-white nag of the Pittsburgh game.
“The new Trojan Horse has quite a background,” Daves said. “The horse and its owner, Robert Casswell, are members of Sheriff Eugene Biscailuz’s famous Silver Mounted Posse.”
Knows Tricks
According to Daves, a horse must know many tricks and know how to behave in large crowds in order to be used in the posse.
“The Silver Mounted Posse,” Daves continued, “has participated in the annual Rose Parade, and was vojed one of the best groups of its kind to ride in President Eisenhower's inaugural parade in Washington two years ago.
“The ceremony for tonight’s game will consist of the band marching onto the field, then playing "Conquest” for the entry of Tommy and the Trojan Horse,” Daves said.
Larger Rooting Section4
For better control of the enlarged rooting section, Yell King Don Ward and his assistants will direct yells from the track.
“Highlight of the card stunts at halftime will be a small green horned frog jumping around the card section. A block SC starts to move into the section and the horned frog tries to push it out but the block SC keeps on moving, finally forcing the frog to jump out of the section and into a tunnel of the Coliseum,” Daves said.
“Other stunts will include a salute to SC's second president,
First Day of Balloting Went Smoothly, Says ElectionCommissioner
By Beverly Scroggs
Three hundred and eighty-three students voted in the elections yesterday, for what Bette Dobkin, election commissioner, termed “a very slow day.”
“I’m happy to	say the voting	went	smoothly	and	without mishap,” Mrs.	Dobkin said,	adding,	“I’m	sure	it	will	be
as good today—but with more students voting.”
Of the 383 who voted, 261 were freshmen, and 23 were from the School of Music, which is electing a school president.
Only freshmen are voting for class officers, but the entire student body is eligible	to vote on
the amendments to	the ASSC
Constitution.
Not Enough Workers “Even though the number of voters was small, not enough workers were available during the morning hours,” Mrs. Dobkin said.
She added that in the afternoon “we had had plenty of people helping, and the Amazons are volunteering more help for us today.”
In urging a large turnout for voting on amendments to the ASSC Constitution, Mrs. Dobkin said, “they are of great importance, and should be considered by every student.
“If we are to have representative government at SC,” she said,
“a sufficient dumber of students should turn out for the elections in order to make it truly representative.”
An Honest Election Mrs. Dobkin also emphasized, the fact that every precaution is being taken to make this an honest election.
“We have a member of the" elections commission posted at the ballot box at all ■ times, and the votes were sealed after yesterday’s balloting and put in a vault overnight,” she said.
The polls will be open today from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. As soon as the voting is over, a committee of 40, including representatives for all candidates, will assemble in the Senate Chamber to tabulate the votes.
If any run-offs are necessary they will be held next Thursday and Friday.
Interviews for membership on the Junior Council will be held the last time today between 1:15 p.m. and 4:15 p.m. in SU 214, it was announced by Bob Hal-deran, junior class president.
Today’s schedule will include all students who turned in their
petitions but have not appeared ] for the closing,” he said, at the interviews this week. Any petitioners who have not been interviewed by 4:30 p.m. will be dropped from consideration for membership.
Of. the 140 applications that have been received, 60 students will be chosen to serve on the Council. The list of names will appear in the DT Tuesday.
Nine students out of the 60 chosen will be appointed committee chairmen. None of the chairmen will be chosen until after the close of the -interviews, according to Halderan.
There will be a large variety of jobs open to the members of the new council, he said. Plans for this semester include w#rk on the Trojan Chest, Homecoming, and the Senior Prom.
