TRC Gives Nod
To Sue Corwin;
Dissension Seen
By Carl Strobel
A political cold war may be brewing on campus as the result of TRG’s choice of a candidate for ASSC Secretary.
Alpha Gam Barbara Frank indicated she will probably run independently for the office against TRG-sponsored Sue Corwin. Miss Frank was earlier reported to have had TRG backing forthcoming as the
only candidate for secretary.
When the deadline for petitions was extended by the Senate, DG Sue Corwin also filed. She received official TRG sponsorship last week.
Disqualified1
In other political developments ASSC President Bill Van Alstyne said that Freshman President Bob Poindexter and Commerce President Don Robinson are technically disqualified from office. He added that he doubted if any Senator will actually press the matter if the two can raise their grade average to the necessary 2.0 by removing IWs.
Van Alstyne said that, legally, falling below the required grade average makes the officer ineligible even though the grades are later made up.
In the secretarial race, TRG Chairman Joe Cerrell said that Miss Frank’s opposition to the party-sponsored candidate “would not be good for the Alpha Gam ma Delta house in the spring election.”
Sororities May Object
He pointed out that her opponent’s sorority would especially object, as well as the other houses backing her opponent.
“Barbara is either with us or
will center around “The Relationship between Campus Politics and Politics in the Community."

A veteran of World War II and a graduate of class of 1949, Unruh served as an ASSC Senate member, was instrumental in the formation of Trovets, and became the first elected Veterans’ Representative on campus. Majoring in journalism, he served as
desk editor of the Daily Trojan and wrote a weekly column, “Week-End in Review.”
Gene Fredricks, Wesley Club President, said the forum is open to all interested students, and they may bring their own lunch or fix one for themselves in the Wesley “Do-It-Yourself” kitchen.

mile Royalty Crowned t Santa Ynez Dance
The happiest people on campus, George Root and Lauretta Misraje, were crowned he King and Queen of Smiles at the Smile Dance Saturday night.
The coronation at the Santa Ynez Inn was the climax of the Phrateres sponsored ‘Hello and Smile Week” from Feb. 14 through 18.
‘Hello and Smile Week,” which has become a tradition at SC, is a part of every
semester’s activities. Last week about half the people on campus went around wearing little tags saying “Hello and Smile" with their names below, and some of fH them even followed the advice.
The week’s activities were 1 7m. punctuated by a voice saving,
|	“Watch the birdie and say hello
and smile.” Roving photographer Owen Haggarty snapped more than 250 pictures of students in his efforts to help the Phrateres find the two people with the happiest and friendliest smiles on campus. The photos will be sold |£ at ten cents apiece later in the semester.
King George has always considered that he has a “crummy smile.”
“When I was running for president of the senior class, he said.
“they had to photograph me for a whole afternoon before they could get a presentable picture for my campaign.”

against us, there is no middle ground,” Cerrell warned
Miss Frank declined to comment on Cerrell’s statements.
Cerrell also said Miss Frank never actually received the endorsement of TRG so last week’s action “could not be construed as stabbing in the back.”
(Miss Frank first said there was a misunderstanding in her relationship with TRG. then declared, “There was never any understanding about running with TRG.”)
Success Wished
“I personally think very highly of Barbara and wish her success in her campaign,’’ Cerrell said, but added he expected the TRG candidate. Miss Corwin, to win by a landslide.
The TRG candidate for Veterans’ Representative will be announced tomorrow since neither Jerry Detwiler nor Carlos Martinez were able to gain the two thirds vote needed for nomination in last week’s TRG meeting .
Political viewers expect Detwiler to get the nod. He trailed 65-64 and 78-58 on the first two roll call ballots, but came back 83-55 on the third ballot, when voting was secret.
Observers said many houses were giving the two candidates an even split on the voice votes to avoid offending the politically powerful Sigma Nu house representative by Martinez. They felt the secret ballot was a better indication of political feeling towards the two.

Pharmacists Learn of U.S. Drug Production Leadership
America leads the world in the discovery of new drugs, it was reported yesterday at the Pharmacy Seminar which was the concluding event of the five-day Trojan Caravan in San Diego.
The United States assumed this leadership about 10 yArs ago when England relinquished it, pharmacists attending the all-day seminar were told. Germany was the leadeij from about 1920 to 1940.
Nearly 300 new drugs come on the market every month. Keeping up with these developments is a tremendous job for doctors of medicine and pharmacists.
Helping these professional men keep abreast of the newer drugs is one of the public services of the School of Pharmacy, and the seminar in San Diego v/as arranged for this reason.
Pharmacy at SC is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year as the University observes its ?5th year.
SC has about 2200 pharmacy i
