ALL FOR ME? — Befuddled co-chairman of last spring's blood drive wonder how they'll ever get all those bottles filled. They collected 737 pints in a five-day drive. Goal for this year's two-day drive beginning Dec. 7 is 800 pints.
Blood Drive Sign-Ups Start Today at SC
by Magpie Christensen
Sign-ups begin today in front of the Student Union for one of the biggest blood drives ever conducted on the SC campus. Students and faculty members must contribute 800 pints on Dec. 7 and 8.
This year’s campaign has been dedicated to the memory of the late Leon Patterson, according to drive co-chairman Chickie Muel-tr.
“We feel that this is a fitting tribute to one of the all-time great Trojans,” said Miss Mueller. Nurses Idle “This drive is also doubly important because of the two-dav time limit and the fact that there will be no drive on the campus next spring," she continued. "The Red Cross has sent us enough nurses and equipment to collect 1350 pints for every previous dr/ve. Most of these drives lasted four or five days and half of the time the nurses had td* sit around waiting lor people to show up.” 800 Pint Goal The first blood drive on the SC campus was held in 1948. The largest number of contributions were made last fall when a total of 972 pint,? were donated, topping the UCLA contribution by-two pints. Last spring the total went dow nto 737, while UCLA collected 812. The UCLA blood d#Pe will be next April.
“Although we must collect 800 pints in the two days that the Bloodmobile will be on campus, the final tabulations will not be in until January 6. Any group that
cannot be accommodated on campus will be able to go down to the Blood Center between Dec. 9 and Jan. 6, and be credited on the Honor Roll,” said Miss Mueller.
Trophies Awarded
‘This way we could get out total contributions past a thousand.”	„
Three trophies will be awarded to the groups donating the most blood in the campus drive and at the bank. Students may credit as many organizations as they wish when they donate. One trophy will go to the campus organization donating the most on a percentage basis, and the other two will go to campus living groups, also on a percentage basis.
A chart will be posted in front of Tommy Trojan throughout the sign-up campaign next week, showing the total pledges made by each group. A huge thermometer will hang in front of the Student Union showing the total of all pledges.
“We hope to see the red mark hit the top long before the end of the week,” said co-chairman Jerry McMahon.
“Perhaps there will be a bigger turn out of faculty members this year than usual,” he continued. "We have never had more than eight professors donate in one drive, and that was during the orean war.
“No matter who donates, we are counting on traditional Trojan spirit to bring off the drive in great style.”

Capacity Crowd Sees SC 17-14 Lead Wiped Out
by Murray Brown Daily Trojan Sports Editor
NOTRE DAME STADIUM, Ind.—Nov. 27—If ever a team deserved esteem and respect after losing a football game, underdog SC did today.
The Trojans were beaten 23-17 by Notre Dame in chilly, wintery weather, but they played magnificently.
They jumped out in front of the Fighting Irish three times. In the last period, Quarterback Jim Contratto completed five straight passes—the last a 21-yard touchdown aerial to End Chuck Griffith—to give SC a 17-14 advantage. Trojans Had Lead Less than seven minutes remained and the Trojans led a Notre Dame team that was ranked fourth in the country. The Irish were 14-point favorites before game time. They had lost only one early season contest, then had taken six in a row.
They had three All-Americans in their starting lineup— Quarterback Ralph Guglielmi, Halfback Joe Heap and Tackle Frank Varrichione.
The incredulous capacity crowd of 56,438 was on the verge of conceding SC the victory.
Surprise Ending But Coach Terry Brennan’s lads had a surprise ending
left.
They had possession on their own 28-yard line. It was third down and three yards to go. Guglielmi, working from the split T, threw one of his famous delayed laterals to Jim Morse, sophomore right halfback.
Morse, running at full speed, took the ball and sped around his own right end and past the outfaked Trojan defenders. He was out in midfield, then eluded a last-gasp tackle attempt by Contratto, and went all the way, 72-yards for the winning touchdown.
Anticlimatic Safety Following this score, with less than a minute left, the Trojans gave Notre Dame an anticlimatic safety when Marv Goux’s center was kicked out of the SC endzone by Fullback Gordon Duvall.
Though Jess Hill’s Trojans failed in their attempt to record their first victory against the Irish at South Bend since 1939, the fans were still proud of them because they gave mighty Notre Dame such a tough fight.
The way they played ball today was an indication that the Trojans won’t be easy„,to handle in the Rose Bowl.
Although outdowned and outgained, Troy failed only because of Morse’s run.
Aramis Dandoy, Marv Goux, Contratto, George Galli, Leon Clarke, Ed Fouch, and Duvall were as good as anyone else on the field.
Dandoy set up SC’s first touchdown when he cracked through a nine man line for three yards, bringing the ball down to the 1-foot line. From there, Contratto plunged over and Troy led, 7-0.
It was also Dandoy who enabled Sad Sam Tsagalakis to boot the 25-yard field goal that put the Trojans ahead for the second time, 10-7. The fleet-footed tailback sprinted 40-yards and would have gone all the way had he not lost his footing on the slippery field.
Dandoy was lost for the last quarter due to an arm injury. The Trojans were also without the services of Lindon American life-areas emnhasized Crow’ their startinS wingback, for the entire contest.

Tackles Varrichione and Sam Palumbo missed just a few minutes.
Goux was an ironman for the Trojans. The fiery center recovered two Notre Dame fumbles and helped stop Irish threats to the left side of the line.
Fouch, Galli, Clarke and Duvall were instrumental in bottling up Guglielmi. The Irish passer only completed two of nine attempts, and didn’t gain much on the ground.
But the Guglielmi favorites—the pitchout and handoff worked to perfection. With perfect timing, the Irish quarterback, seemingly tackled for a loss, would lateral to Morse or Heap and these two backs would proceed to run through Troy’s defenses for big yardage.	'	*

LOS ANGELES AND VICINITY
—Low clouds Monday morning becoming mostly sunny in afternoon. Partly cloudy Tuesday. Slightly warmer Monday afternoon with high near 64.	—	United	Press.
SC’s Diamond Jubilee promotion program was praised recently in a front page editorial in the Laguna Beach South Coast News which called it a “marvelous educational program.”	t
W. W. Ottaway, publisher of the News, congratulated the university on its Trojan Caravan Day events in the Oceanside community, which included a talk on the subjects of TV by Dr. Frank C. Baxter and an alumni banquet, with International Relations Professor Rodger Swearingen as featured speaker.
The day’s events were termed by Ottaway “the most outstanding public information programs” that Laguna “has had in many years.”
SC “Outstanding”
He described SC as “an outstanding example cf an educational institution that handier its public relations intelligently and efficiently.”
I
“I consider it in a class by itself,” he said.
Ottaway contrasted SC's new promotional program of sending speakers to Southland communities with the usual method of an institution mailing out publicity material which in most cases eventually ends up in the newspaper’s wastebaskets.
“Common Sense Used”
SC’s dealings with the News have been “far ahead of the public relations programs of other California universities, he said.
“SC employs intelligence and common sense in its public information program. What better way to develop understanding and respect for the university,” he added.
Besides Dr. Baxter and Dr. Swearingen, Dr. Henry Reining, public administration dean, and Dr. Paul D. Saltman. instructor in biochemistry and nutrition, also addressed groups in Laguna.
