Social Club Prejudice In Choosing Described
America’s college fraternities and sororities are still choosing their members on the basis of “Aryanism,” making | disci iminations because of race, religion, and national origin.
This condition was blamed on “Fraternity professionals | ant* alumni who prevent pledging of minority groups,” by Dr.

Exploitation by US Prevented Island Development, Stieg
United States exploitation of the Philippines is resented by Filipinos and has prevented them from developing industrially, University Librarian Lewis F. Stieg said yesterday.
Dr. Stieg, who was a Fulbright professor at the University of the Philippines and
who organized their library through the Foreign Operations Administration, told the Faculty

even more effectively than fraternities do.”
Administration Blamed
Dr. Lee also hit college administrations which failed lo take positive steps against such discriminatory practices. He noted only eight of the 125 campuses surveyed had any such controls. College administrators “do not support the efforts of student chapters against segregation, thus allowing the nationals to maintain their fraternal status quo."
Although he believes that social fraternities are important to young people in preparing to take part in the business and social life of a democracy, Dr. Lee also sounds a warning.
“To the extent that Aryanism persists in them, social fraternities represent a basic threat to democracy in the United States and to the effectiveness of American leadership in world affairs.”

Veteran students attending school under I*.I.. 550 (Korean G.I. Hill) should pick up Iheir attendance forms for Ihe month of December, 19.15, in the Ofl-flee of Veteran Affairs If they have not already done so.
E. E. BROOKS, Assistant Registrar.
A solemn warning came out of the foreign st dents office yesterday.
Jim McAree, foreign students adviser, said all foreigners who S.
Department of Justice by Jan. Hi will lie deported automatically to Iheir respective countries.
In order to save aliens a trip to the post office, the Department of Justice has permitted the foreign students office to Issue the registration forms on campus.
“I hope nobody get* this registration confused with the recent census registration required of foreign students by the utrte. This is a separate registration conducted yearly by the national government, and all aliens are required to register,” said Me/ ree.

their biggest economic problem and feel that the agreements destroy their sovereignty.”
The Bell Agreements of 1950 give the Philippines preferential treatment in United States trade but keep them from competition on the open market. They also give the United States fiscal control of the Philippine peso.
“The Philippines feel that the United States is keeping them tied to colonial economy, but there is no alternative to these controls."
Give* Advice
‘‘Our programs of foreign aid and exchanging students are tremendously important — but we must remember not to try to buy friendship. We should look upon the Islanders as human beings, not as a country which would be useful to us in a political situation.”
Analyzing conditions in the fields of politics, economics, and sociology, Stieg said that the following conditions exist:
1. Politically — the Philippines have democracy in form, but not in substance; we gave them our form of government and they are just beginning to learn to understand it. The election of (RamonI Magsaysay was the first free election held on the islands; "only eight or nine people were killed."
2. Economically — Ihe standard of living is very low and trade is tied closely to the United States; they have a primitive agricultural economy which has not been developed industrially.
3. Sociologically thp greatest influence w'hic hthe United States has had is in the field of education, where they follow our pat-
| tern.
Tells Summary
I In summation, Stieg said that the United State*' influence in the j Philippines “has been enormous, and for the most part, good.”
“However, we must always re-■ mpmber lhat we can’t simply im-I pose rules upon them; they can’t j simply apply the pressure of our j naval bases upon us. We must develop a cooperative attitude of ' mutual respect.”
VELERO IV TAKES PART IN BEACH SEWER PROBE
Residents along the shores of Santa Monica Bay are being asked to watch for 500 waterproof envelopes which may he washed ashore within the next few days.
Dropped In 20 specific areas recently by scientists aboard the Velero IV, operated by the Allan llaneoek Foundation, the envelopes are part of a unique study in the ociyinic field.
The thin plastic envelopes contain directions and reporting data to aid in determining drift and rate of flow of offshore water motion.
This will aid engineers in their studies to determine > the best future location for sewer outfall, reports Dr. Robert E. Stevenson, director of the oceanographic research.
“Two previous drops were made with a 46, and 48 per cent return,” says Dr. Stevenson. “A six per cent reply is considered normal. Our results indicate an appreciation by the public of the importance of the drift survey.”
Each drop is made from 20 stations extending as far as eight miles from shore. The envelopes, with, balancing light washers, give the scientists a different study of water motion than lighter, flat envelopes which may be carried by surface winds.
Other studies aboard the vessel have been made while on weekly cruises by the scientists during the yearlong survey.
New Senior Bill Ups Activity Fund
A new Senior Activity Bill, signed Tuesday by President Fagg, will mean “more complete” activities at lower cost to SC students who will graduate in June.
As a direct result of the new Activity Bill, the 1956 senior class will have $4500 to draw from for use ln senior activities in contrast to the $2300 that was

available during the 1955 spring semester.
The Activity Bill is now compulsory for all University Park graduating seniors carrying eight or more units and who expect to reoeive a bachelors degree in June.
Leave* Out Some The bill does not include students who will receive a Bachelor of Laws degree.
The ASSC Senafe passed the bill Nov. 17, 1955 as an improvement on the 1955 Senior Fee Bills which were sold for $3.50 to individual students during a week set aside for that purpose.
The cost of the new Activity Bill is set at $3.00.
The amount of the Activity Hill must bs added to the tuition payment in the same manner as the $10 medical foe.
Pay Here Tuition payments are made at the Bursar's office or during registration in the men’s gym.
President Fagg's signature on the Activity Bill culminated a semester of careful investigation and len years of discussion.
Senior Class President Steve Robertson and Joan Chapman, senior class vice president, started work on the bill last June.
History Told A Senior Fee Bill Commlltee was organized to investigate the mechanics of the proposed change. During the investigation more than 150 students were asked their opinion.
Offices of the Director of Admissions, Registrar, Auditor, Veterans Affairs, NROTC, and Senior Affairs were included in the investigation.
By October the bil' had ire-cured the approval of the Senior Class Council. It passed the ASSC j Senate in November. Illness prevented President Fagg's signature of the bill until this week.
States Aims
“Through this bill the Senior Council can sponsor more complete activities. We feel it will also bring more international and indepedent student* into campus activities,” said Class President Robertson.
“This year's Senior Ditch will ho an all-day affair at White's Point, will include free food and refreshments, entertainment, and a band,” he said.
Action on tlv:- Activity Bill wa* prompted by poor participation and delinquent Senior Fee Bills.
I'oor Past
"An example of poor participation was last year's Senior Breakfast when 225 made r«»*-!rvations and only 180 showed up,” he said.
“The Council now has time to d?vote more lime to tha planning of activities and other senior benefits and is assured of a definite amount of money to work with," he said.
The broadened senior activities will includ? a reception for graduates and their parents following the Baccalaureate services in June.
Bob Lenard Named New Sports Editor
Bob Lenard, 23-year-old Daily Trojan news editor, has lieen named DT sports editor. He will replace Carl Strobel, who will resign in Fehruary.
He now covers water polo and basketball and writes “Rumblings" for the DT.
He lettered in basketball for two years at Van Nuys High School and in ice skating was a finalist at the 1949-50, 1952 meets of the National and North America Indoor Ice Skating Championships.
Air Force Vet

He also outlined a series of speakers for next semester, which will include Chester Bowles, former ambassador to India; Thurgood Marshall, attorney for Ihe National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; Margaret Mead, anthropologist; and Ralph Bunche. long time associate of the United Nations.

Fee Kill Win*
Steve Robertson, senior class president, announced that President Fagg signed fhe Senate's motion into reality Tuesday. It goes into effect on next semester's fee bill.
Parking problems on campus brought two motions by Burton Zipser, president of the student council on religion.
The Senate voted to instruct Elton D. Phillips, university business manager, to approach the Los Angeles City Traffic Commission for two changes in parking:
1. Change the angle parking on 36th Street between McClintock and Vermont to head-in parking like that near the Student Union.
2. Allow for continuous parallel parking along streets around the university and define the parking stalls with painted lines.
Never Mentioned
An earlier suggestion hy Zipser to bring regulated parking to University Avenue was never brought before the Senate since It’ would necessitate purchasing lhe street from the city and the money is nol avuilalile.
Senator Boh Meads reported on Ihe progress of the Orientation Committee. He said Ih. t outlines have been distributed to English lOOab and General Studies lOOab, 200, and 204ab instructors who will decide what action is to be I taken.

The cost of the new Activity Bill is set at $3.00. The amount of the Activity Hill must bs added to the tuition payment in the same manner as the $10 medical foe. Pay Here Tuition payments are made at the Bursar's office or during registration in the men’s gym. President Fagg's signature on the Activity Bill culminated a semester of careful investigation and len years of discussion. Senior Class President Steve Robertson and Joan Chapman, senior class vice president, started work on the bill last June. History Told A Senior Fee Bill Commlltee was organized to investigate the mechanics of the proposed change. During the investigation more than 150 students were asked their opinion. Offices of the Director of Admissions, Registrar, Auditor, Veterans Affairs, NROTC, and Senior Affairs were included in the investigation. By October the bil' had ire-cured the approval of the Senior Class Council. It passed the ASSC j Senate in November. Illness prevented President Fagg's signature of the bill until this week. States Aims “Through this bill the Senior Council can sponsor more complete activities. We feel it will also bring more international and indepedent student* into campus activities,” said Class President Robertson. “This year's Senior Ditch will ho an all-day affair at White's Point, will include free food and refreshments, entertainment, and a band,” he said. Action on tlv:- Activity Bill wa* prompted by poor participation and delinquent Senior Fee Bills. I'oor Past "An example of poor participation was last year's Senior Breakfast when 225 made r«»*-!rvations and only 180 showed up,” he said. “The Council now has time to d?vote more lime to tha planning of activities and other senior benefits and is assured of a definite amount of money to work with" he said. The broadened senior activities will includ? a reception for graduates and their parents following the Baccalaureate services in June.
