★ Election Preview
It is disheartening to watch the re-election nf commerce presidency and freshman vice presidency being held today.
Disheartening for the candidates because tihey have to go through the strain of electioneering again. Disheartening for us because we fear the vote turnout will be slight.
Last week the turnout was meager enough. Of more than 1700 freshman, only 495 of them cast ballots for freshman vice president. Of the 1575 School of Commerce undergraduates, 345 voted.
Apathy about today's election stems from misunderstanding why the revote is being taken. Most students voice disgust, saying the whole thing is a political trick.
The truth is that the Ye-election is quite legal and necessary. But it was probably motivated by political considerations.
What happened last week was that the special electrographic pencil required for IBM tabulating was apparently taken from a polling booth by mistake. A regular pencil was found in its place about an hour later. Since the IBM machine will not tally votes made by regular pencils, many ballots were voided.
In the commerce election ballots were voided, and In the frosh election 56 ballots were no good. Some of these were blank; some marked incorrectly; but a substantial number were marked with the wrong pencil.
Leroy Barker beat TRG’s Nancy Bates-Lane by 3 votes in the commerce race and four of the frosli veep candidates received votes numbering in the 50s, 60s, and 70s. So the voided ballots could have changed the outcome in both races had they been legal.
The ASSC Senate refused to accept the report of Elections Commissioner Sid Owsowitz and ruled the election of the two offices illegal.
Ostensibly the move looks like an attempt to bend over backwards to support the democratic metihod of fair electrons. But the 13-10 vote of the Senate to disqualify the election indicates the revote would not have been held had TRG won the commerce post. The senators* voted pretty much along party lines, the 13 for a new election being mostly TRG.
What puts TRG in a bad light (although several party sources say they didn’t want another election) is that the decision to call a revote was not unanimous. If it had been, students would have felt the ASSC Senate as a whole was trying to insure a fair election.
Freshmen and commerce students have a chance to Insure a fair election themselves. All they have to do is follow instructions given by members of the elections commission at the polls.
If they allow their apathy or disgust to keep tihem from voting, they can’t expect fair representation. They can complain all they want, but the£ can't hope for good student government unless they realize it’s th.eir DUTY to vote.

Troyscope
Wisconsin
to Thrill Rooters
Troyscope, the cinemascope of card tricks, returns to half-time activities tonight when the Trojans battle it out with the Wisconsin Badgers in the Coliseum.
Supervised by the Trojan Knights, Troyscope was introduced last year arid was "twice as large as any card section of any other school," said Conrad Solum. Trojan Knights president.
Troyscope is twice as w'ide as the normal card section and requires the participation of 3300 rooters.
"When introduced last year the Troyscope section really went over great, and we’re hoping for the same amount of enthusiasm and cooperation from the students this year," said Solum.
The presentation will include 19 card stunts. The first two tricks are a series of “HI" in gold on a silver ribbon. This flips into “BADGERS”. Next, the
half-time score with "SC" and "WISC" will appear in red letters.
The next seven stunts are a series., Grass will be seen on a white field as a little mound of dirt pushes its way up. The mound gets bigger and a "W” for Wisconsin will be seen. Then a Badger will be seen pushing his black head through the mound. Tommy Trojan will appear with his stt’ord, hit the Badger orr the head, and leave the* scene victorious.
Other stunts will include a "CONGRATS STATE MUSEUM” in honor of the 75th anniversary of the State Museum; "STOP EIRE” as a reminder of Eire Safety Week; a growing block "SC”; a block "SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA!” and a signature stunt which will spell "TROJAN.”
SCamps To Ignite Noon Rally
SCamps, the spark that plans set the spirit of SC on fire, plus Johnny Green's Trojan Pep Band, Yell King Bill Hillinck, Jim Contratto, Vern Sampson,'and Coach Nick Pappas will combine ft forts to get SC “up'v at the Wisconsin game rally at noon in Bovard.
"We want to show the football team we haven't lost spirit because of the loss to Washington," Leroy Barker, rally chairman, said.
Troyscope Films
Another highlight of the rally will be the showing of movies of last year's Troyscope card stunts. Troyscope is done on a much larger scale than regular card stunts, and its presentation requires the help and cooperation of 3300 students.
The scoop on SCamps finally came to light last night when SCamps president, Dann Angeloff revealed what it was all about. The “SC” in the name stands for student body w'hile the "amps" means the “spark that sets the spirit of SC on fire.”
Finally Revealed Just what this m.vsterious name signified has kept Trojans state of emotional upset since Wednesday when it was cautionsly mentioned in a story in the DT.
SCamps W'as formed to create a new spirit at SC. It intends to create spirit for athletic teams, though rallies, pre-game activities, and post-game activities. Greeting returning teams at airports is one example of post-game activities that should bring up SC spirit, according to Angeloff.
Ignite Spirit Through SCamps’ plans, spirit will be instilled into the student body by starting a Trojan Pickup. which will give students rides to and from school. “Our policy will be to try to get the students more friendly toward each other sn that thev will give anybody a ride that they see walking to school.” Angeloff said. Aneeloff pointed out that many students drive back and forth to school in an empty car.
SCamps will fire up spirit by encouraging students to follow the teams when they play away from home and by organizing car pools for Saturday home games at the Coliseum.

In cases where the combination of pills and mercury compound didn’t work as expected, it was believed that the coating on the pills prevented the proper amount of ammonium chloride fr o m being digested. When uncoated pills were given the combination worked as it should, and the swelling was eliminated.

! The fate of the long-sought-after orientation program for freshmen may be decided within the next two or three weeks, according to Bob Meads, senator-at-large and chairman of the Senate Orientation Committee.
In a meeting held Wednesday night, the six-man committee studied orientation plans pin prised by former student leaders and developed new idoas into what the group believes to be a concrete, workable Indoctrination program.
"Orientation plans have been up in the air for about six years,” Meads said. “It's about time something really got accomplished, and I sincerely believe our proposals will correct weaknesses in earlier suggestions.”
Committee Member*
Other committee members are Robbie Carroll, Panhellenic Council president: Sue Corwin, ASSC secretary; Carl Terzian, senator-at-large; Bert Zipser, president of the Student Council on Religion; and Jim Hurst, junior class president.
Specific topics recommended by the committee for the orientation are study habits, use of library facilities, vocational guidance, carri-pus activities, and Troy traditions.
Former Indoctrination suggestions called for a snecial freshman course covering these subjects. Meads’ committee proposes their inclusion in such low'er division classes as English 100a h, General Studies lOOab (Man and Civilization), and General Studies 200 (psychology).
Senate Suggests
The Senate group suggests study habits and use of the library be covered in English lOOab classes, while GS 200 is consider-I ed a “logical choice" for vocational guidance and aptitude tests.
A half-hour donated four time*
J each semester by GS lOOab pro*
| fessors would be used by student and faculty representatives for taliks on campus activities, service oreanizatlons, and traditions of SC.
"Orientation In these fields would help the new students in all their classes for the entire time they are in college." Meads claimed “They would be better counseled a« to vocational choice and could plan their class program according!'’ ”
Campus I.Ifft
He pointed out that freshmen would become familiar with all phases of campus life early In their college years. With this knowledge in common, he said, there will erow a spirit of friendship and unity Tn create a more Intense school spirit, the Senate committee proposes a 10-minute period at the beginning of each Fridav GS 200 class, when freshmen would be ted in an "all-out" session of school yells and songs. A similar splrit-hullding device has been used successfully at UCLA for several years, according to Meads.
Extension Indicated Meads indicated that he will ask the Senate next week for a short extension to his original two-wek period for preparation of an orientation progarm.
"We must discuss our proposals with Dean Bernard L Hyink and the curriculum committee before presenting them to a Senate vote,” Meads said.
"Wednesday night we developed orientation plans that have never been presented before We believe they are workable and want to carry through to a successful conclusion.”
and prospective members are invited to today’s meeting scheduled for 12:15 p.m. in 418 SU.
High on the Trovet activity calendar is the operation of the Living War Memorial, a four-year, full-tuition scholarship given to a deserving child of a serviceman killed in action. Administered hv the university, the scholarship has been in operation since 1948.
The Bookmart, W'here Trovets act as agents for the sale of students’ books, is managed by the organization each semester.
Among other Trovet activities are the maintaining of a veterans information service, aid to GIs seeking housing, and various social events such as tonight’s |mst-sainc gathering al the Switzerland Restaurant on Figueroa

The fate of the long-sought-after orientation program for freshmen may be decided within the next two or three weeks, according to Bob Meads, senator-at-large and chairman of the Senate Orientation Committee. In a meeting held Wednesday night, the six-man committee studied orientation plans pin prised by former student leaders and developed new idoas into what the group believes to be a concrete, workable Indoctrination program. "Orientation plans have been up in the air for about six years,” Meads said. “It's about time something really got accomplished, and I sincerely believe our proposals will correct weaknesses in earlier suggestions.” Committee Member* Other committee members are Robbie Carroll, Panhellenic Council president: Sue Corwin, ASSC secretary; Carl Terzian, senator-at-large; Bert Zipser, president of the Student Council on Religion; and Jim Hurst, junior class president. Specific topics recommended by the committee for the orientation are study habits, use of library facilities, vocational guidance, carri-pus activities, and Troy traditions. Former Indoctrination suggestions called for a snecial freshman course covering these subjects. Meads’ committee proposes their inclusion in such low'er division classes as English 100a h, General Studies lOOab (Man and Civilization), and General Studies 200 (psychology). Senate Suggests The Senate group suggests study habits and use of the library be covered in English lOOab classes, while GS 200 is consider-I ed a “logical choice" for vocational guidance and aptitude tests. A half-hour donated four time* J each semester by GS lOOab pro* fessors would be used by student and faculty representatives for taliks on campus activities, service oreanizatlons, and traditions of SC. "Orientation In these fields would help the new students in all their classes for the entire time they are in college." Meads claimed “They would be better counseled a« to vocational choice and could plan their class program according!'’ ” Campus I.Ifft He pointed out that freshmen would become familiar with all phases of campus life early In their college years. With this knowledge in common, he said, there will erow a spirit of friendship and unity Tn create a more Intense school spirit, the Senate committee proposes a 10-minute period at the beginning of each Fridav GS 200 class, when freshmen would be ted in an "all-out" session of school yells and songs. A similar splrit-hullding device has been used successfully at UCLA for several years, according to Meads. Extension Indicated Meads indicated that he will ask the Senate next week for a short extension to his original two-wek period for preparation of an orientation progarm. "We must discuss our proposals with Dean Bernard L Hyink and the curriculum committee before presenting them to a Senate vote,” Meads said. "Wednesday night we developed orientation plans that have never been presented before We believe they are workable and want to carry through to a successful conclusion.” and prospective members are invited to today’s meeting scheduled for 12:15 p.m. in 418 SU.
