LOS ANGELES, CALIF., WEDNESDAY, OCT. 27, 1954
mocrat Power Has creased Says Yorty
‘The Democratic party is larger and stronger than ever lore in the state and the Democratic ticket will make a ^ep in the elections.” Congressman Sam Yorty said in jEnders Hall yesterday afternoon.
Yorty, Democratic candidate for U.S. senator, who spoke
before students and faculty mem-! bers at the last in a series of i|4m	ASSC Forum events, drew
'■	liw JuvCaiV the same size audience as his op-
| ponent, Sen. Thomas Kuchel, who spoke in Founders last week.
Yorty tore into the record of his Republican opponent and the •V	|	Republican administration. He
I	listed reasons why he and other
■ VwU J	Democrats would be elected and
many Republicans defeated.
“The downfall of the GOP came jn 1952, Yorty said, “when the Republicans were elected. The congressman said the Republicans claimed they had a solution for every problem and when elected proved they did not.
The main issue Republicans are rufining on, he said, was their support of the president. Senator Kuchel, the congressman said, voted against Eisenhower on the Bricker Amendment, the Foreign Trade Bill, and the bill making it a crime to belong to the Communist party.
“A lot of the Republicans are the biggest obstacles to Eisenhower,” Yorty said, and charged that many of these Republicans are “just riding the president’s coattails.” Yorty pointed out that he had voted along with Ike 50 per cent of the time.
The congresman said, however, that on such isues as the air force cuts, the Dixon-Yates issue, and the GOP distribution of taxes program he could not support the administration.
He said that the air force cuts by Charles Wilson “then of Gen-eneral Motors and now of dog fame endangers the security of the nation. The new look, he said, reduces the goal of the air force by six wings and stretches it over a two year longer period.

NSA Affiliation For Troy Near Says President
“After eight years of controversy, we’re at last becoming a member.”
So spoke ASSC President Bill Van Alstyne yesterday when he announced that the student body has finally secured the funds to join the National Students Association.
He said that at tonight’s meeting of the Senate the Board of Financial Control will recommend that the Senate take necessary steps to become affiliated with NSA.
Annual Controversy
Whether to join NSA, a national confederation of student governments, has been an annual topic of discussion for many years.
The Senate took the first definite steps toward membership last month when it voted to join, provided the needed $1000 for membership could be raised without endangering other student projects.
The Board of Financial Control will also report that it has appropriated money matching the amount raised by the Foreign Students to build a float for Homecoming. The Board agreed to appropriate one dollar for every dollar the Foreign Students raised in building their float.
No Salary Previously
“Until this year, SC’s was the only university student government on the West Coast which did not pay its president a salary,” Van Alstyne said. The ASSC presidential salary is presently fixed at $500 a year.
Steve Robertson also will report on the first phase of his Forum Committee’s 1954 program tonight. Van Alstyne has predicted that “though these have been the best forums we have ever had, the Senate will probably abolish them because of lack of interest on the part of the student body.”
In another Senate report, Fred Fagg III will detail the Walls of Troy program for the months ahead.
The last item of Senate discussion will be the revised bylaws which were forwarded for consideration to tonight's meeting.
Trojans will have an opportunity to help design the “Walls of Troy” by submitting entries in the contest which begins Monday, Bill Ruch, chairman of the Walls of Troy Committee, announced yesterday.
“The contest is open to all students, and actual draft-
skill isn’t necessary,’' Ruch
ing sKiii isn't necessary, said.
The Walls of Troy Committee, a sub-committee of the Greater University Committee, has already decided the general plan for the wall. The contest is to determine the specific design.
Pillars, Wrought Iron As shown in the picture above, the walls will be constructed of pillars and wTOUght iron. Contest ! entries should include such things I as designs for the sides of the pillars, the shape of the pillars, ornaments for the top of the pillars, and the nature of the wrought iron fencing between the pillars.
Fred Fagg III, chairman of the Greater University Committee, said that highly elaborate designs will be discarded, as their expense is prohibitive.
Judging Basis *
The Greater-U Committee’s judging of the contest will be based on economy of construction, function, and significance of designs, harmony with the existing architecture on campus, originality, and adaptability of ideas.
Two tickets to the Rose Bowl game will be awarded the winner. Other prizes will be announced later.
Rules Drawn I'p
Rules for the contest are:
1.	Each design will be one wall section. The section will be 15 to 20 feet in length and seven feet in height.
2.	Each entry will be on standard 8 V2 by 11 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 place to submit entries will be announced Monday.
“This contest is open not only to students in the fine arts and architecture departments—but to anyone who has a constructive idea—regardless of artistic ability,” Ruch said.

TV Personality
Invited to Annual Education Meet
By Maggie Christensen
Dr. Frank C. Baxter will leave at 10 o’clock this evening for the 30th annual convention of the National Association of Educational Broadcasters in New York, where he will speak at the Thursday evening general session.
Dr. Baxter has been invited by Ralph Steele, executive
director of the Joint Committee j on Educational Television to speak on the uses of television, based on his experiences.
Dr. feaxter’s talk will be preceded by a brief excerpt from one of his kinescope programs.
“More Than Any Other”
In his invitation, Steele said that Baxter has “probably done more to prove the case for educational television than any other one man.”
Dr. Baxter will be the guest of honor at a luncheon given Friday by the New York CBS television station, WCBS. He will relate his experiences with the Shakespeare series to newsmen, educators, talent on the local educational programs, and WCBS executives.
On Friday, Dr. Baxter will have a combination dinner and interview with Nanette Kudner of Good Housekeeping magazine.
Eleven Awards
Dr. Baxter has received eleven awards for his performances and contributions to educational television. Among these have been two "Emmies,” television’s counterpart to the “Oscars,” of the motion picture industry. These were presented to him at the sixth annual Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Awards Banquet last spring.
Baxter has been an avid Shakespeare student for many years, and was considered an expert before the “Shakespeare on TV” series began.
One of his prize possessions is the scale model of the ojd Globe Theater which he built several years ago for use in his classes.
“I am thrilled and honored to be asked, as a strictly academic educator, to speak before the people most concerned with the present and future status of educational television,” Dr. Baxter said of his invitation.
“People Beginning To Care”
“I feel that this convention is tremendously significant because of the change in attitude of TV producers and viewers. At its beginning people watched it because it was something new and different, and they wou^d take anything that was thrown at them.
“But now the people are beginning to care about what they watch, and the men inside TV are anxious to please them.”
Dr. Baxter will stay at the Biltmore Hottel while in New York. He will fly back late Saturday afternoon in time to prepare for his television appearance on Sunday.
