Ozone concentration, the indicator of severity of smog, reached 41 yesterday in Downtown Los Angeles and .40 in Vernon. A first alert is called at .50.
By Jerry A. Burns
“A college party system is basically good, but with .only one dominant party many good people are prevented from holding office,” Senator-at-large Carl Terzian told the UCLA Community Council at the Westwood campus yesterday.
Speaking before 50 student leaders who had invited him to speak on "SCs Political System,” Terzian described SC* Senate, elections, and political setup. To illustrate he showed some election posters and DTs from the last election.
Good Experience
The Senator told the informal group that the party system “affords good practical experience as a leader and a follower.” It affords a unique type of organization which enables a Jot of work to be accomplished during the course of a year, he said.
Terzian pointed out the drawbacks of the SC system.
"But, when you have only one party, or, in a multiple party system, where one party is very dominant, many qualified people are prevented from holding public office, the purpose of the party system is destroyed,” he stated.
Leadership Opportunity
Upon questioning later, 8erzian said that “SC has many independents, foreign students, and Rowites who have the kind of leadership it needs who are not getting a chance to utilize that ability in government."
He feels that SC should carefully restudy the merits of its political system “with the aim of providing more opportunity for people not left out of government to get into it.”
Terzian’s remarks were followed by refreshments and a brief tour of the UCLA newspaper setup.
James Signed for HC Ball
Harry James, who gained his fame with "Bumble Boogie," will have to blare forth with “Fight Oil" to make celebrating Trojans satisfied at the Anniversary Ball Saturday' night.

Speakers Bureau Wins Senate OK

presentation.
Senator Carl Terzians supposedly “quiet" motion for a Permanent Speakers Bureau got a brief flare-up of debate in the abbrebi-ated ASSC Senate meeting last night which excluded the senior fe bill resolution.
The motion, which was passed, was aimed at having the Senators “come down and see the stu-Bents.” It met criticism on the grounds that it could be used for political reasons
Red-haired Marguerite Cooper, international relations president supported Terzians move, bi stressed no politics should be in it.
"I’ve been running periodically for three years and have found that people fall into two categories: those that don’t know any'-thing about politics and those who think it’s all dirty, ’ she said.
■exclude Politics
Terzian, speaking for his motion, said that “it was a shame" that the Senate members are considered lo have “such low political integrity.” He asked for support stressing the exclusion of politics "for once.”
In other Senate action Chairman Don Masuda moved to hold a mock political conventions at SC Apr. 6 and 7 of next year.
California schools would be contacted and asked to represent a state at the mock Democratic or Republican party conventions. Keynote addresses would be delivered by nationally prominent politicians, he said.
LAS ADVISEMENT OFFICE ENERGIZED BY ASSC JIBE
The LAS Advisement Office, recently criticized by the ASSC Senate for failure to meet advisement need*, has taken definite action to correct the situation.
The office has arranged a time schedule for students to sign up for personal conferences, and plans later to send conference cards to freshmen and sophomores. Already it has mailed interview cards to probationary students.
ASSC members attending the Idyllwild Conference in October said (1) there were not enough advisers on duty and (2 )advisers were not specifically informed as to degree requirements.
Paul E. Hadley, director of the office, said that during registration there are usually two advisers in the administration area and one in th.e department office. It is not a lack of personnel that causes long waiting in lines. Kather students should make use of advisement service prior to registration, Iladley explained.
In meeting the second criticism, Iladley pointed out the office is for lower division and general advisement.

Schools of Troy Schedule Alumni Homecoming Events
Legend' and Brutus the Bartender' Cop ; Sweepstakes for Alpha Phis and Fijis
By Jim KHrayn
Alpha Phi and Phi Gamma Delta walked off with the trophies of the Diamond Jubilee Show last night, before a packed house
The Alpha Phi s "The Legend” took the first place gold trophy for the best sorority act. The number was an Indian ritualistic scene depicting prayer dances to some mythical god. The number featured mostly the choreography of about two dozen girls An Yma Sumac type voice" was used to narrate the elaborate number.
Taking the mens sweepstakes was Phi Gamma Delta with “Brutus the Bartender.” The original number featured a satire on SC’s
football wins and losses for this year. As Pete Henderson, a talented bass played, narrated the story, the games were enacted by a group in the "Trojan Milk Bar.” The biggest ovations were for George Criona, who made a very comical and noisy Tommy Trojan. Henderson wore the original lyrics; the music was "improvised.” Pantomine was directed by Fiji Jack Diomand.
Placing second in the sorority division, Delta Delta Delta used only two girls and an accompanist. The ndmber was “A Couple of Swells" from the motion picture "Easter Parade." The girls were dressed in disshelved tuxe-
dos and black-and white striped stiff shirts.
Phi Delta Theta placed second in the fraternity category with its rendition of “The Terror of Highway 101." The group used motorcycles donated by the famed Victor MacGluutin Motor Corp. The number cleverly opened with a dozen cycle headlights "blinding" the audience. While ihe "gang" used motorcycles, "the terror" rode a putt-putt.
Third place In the women's division was won by Alpha Delta Pi for their number, "The Sacrifice.” It was also a ritualistic dance similar to the Alpha Phis, except this was Afro-Cubian in- J stead of Indian.
acia fraternity got the third place in the men's division with a long parody on the coming Stanford-SC game. The number featured a live Tommy Trojan Frolic will lie held at 11 a.m. in
