in every respect. They are only
approaching a most digastrous de-
feat when they start playing with the juniors in competition. The night of December 3 will be mem-orable as a victory for the juniors. �Amen."
Both classes have had an out-standing past. The class of ’44, while they were sophomores, came to a victorious close of their ca-reer in their lower division year by winning a cup presented by Hudson jewelers after a year of contests with the freshmen.
SENIORS SLY
The class of ’43 proved highly spirited last year with a series of antics and trickery that led to the exposing of the junior-senior sneak before it actually took place. It spoiled completely the plans of the other class and left them in a lurch.
These are the two classes that meet in attendance - competition Thursday evening, the committee said. Rivalry will be friendly, but
"tough outfit meets tough outfit", chairmen concluded.
Roth classes have held pre-mixer parties to work up spirit this quar-ter, a1111 plans are strider way to make the affair something really good, the two councils said.

In compliance with its new pol-
icy of sending La Torres to stu-
dents who have purchased advance
subscriptions but who are leaving
school before publication of the an-
nual, the bustness staff asks all ad-
vance subscription ticketholders
who are going to leave at the end
of this quarter to give their names
and addresses to staff members in
’ the publications office to begin the
mailing list of the 1943 annual.
"We have adopted this policy be-
cause of the uncertainty of stu-
dents’ status in school in regard to
the calling up of the reserves," comments business manager Jerry
Becker. "A great many men and
women will have undoubtedly left
school by next June, but we feel
that they will be just as interested
in viewing the school year of 1942-
43 AS portrayed by the ’43 La
Torre". Advance subscriptions are still
on sale in the Publications office.
The deadline for the purchase has
been set as the first week of next
quarter less than a month away.
Director Hopes No Blackout Will Interfere With Christmas Play
Last year’s Christmas play’s second night audience was left in the dark, but it is hoped by Director Wendell Johnson that the Yuletide program consisting of a one-act play and musical numbers to be presented Thursday night at 8:30 in the Morris Dailey auditorium will not be cut short by the siren of an air raid alarm.
The program is being joint y produced by the Speech and Music departments, with music be-ing provided by the A Cappella Choir, directed by William Erlend-son of the Music department and the Madrigal singers under Miss Maurine Thompson. Soloists will be Letha Medlin; Helen Reese, who will also accompany Miss Med-lin on the violin; James Wright, and Frances Ebert. Jean Long, a former State student, will offer se-lections of the organ and accom-pany several of the soloists. Mrs. Lydia Boothby, music instructor, will accompany Miss Medlin’s vio-lin selections on the harp.
Special lighting will be used to heighten the effect of the musical numbers and to give the entire per-formance a more Christmasy air.
CLIMAXED BY PLAY The one-act play "Dust of the
Road" will bring the program to a climax. This same play, classi-fied as a fantasy with a realistic background was produced here
SJS TECHNICALS A list 111 the names 11f ’AU-
dents 141/.0111’11 in tecl �al only, and who are to he considered for transfer to the four-year A.B. degree course at the end of this quarter, is posted on the bulletin board outside the Per-sonnel office. Any student who wishes to 111’ considered for transfer to the A.B. degree, but whose name is not on the list, should see either Dr. Heath or Miss Clark in the Personnel of-fice. Unless this request is made, the committee will take no action.
Quarterly Sale of Unclaimed Articles Today

Council Meets Tonight At 7:30
Minus Bob Jennings, who has
taken a leave of absence to have
an operation, the Student council
will meet at 7:30 tonight in the
Student Union.
Main topic of discussion will be
the punishment handed by the Stu-
dent Court to six organizations
who failed to turn in lists of mem-
bers to the council.
three years ago by speech students as a laboratory experiment. A tramp, who exemplifies the spirit of the Biblical character, Judas, coming back to earth to redeem his soul by helping others, supplies the fantasy element of the play. Real-ism is brought out by the mean, miserly farmer who is converted by the humble tramp during the Christmas season in a mid-western farmhouse kitchen.
Jack Hume plays the tramp; Ed Ropolo, the farmer; Esther Laci-Oriole, the farmer’s wife, and Ruth Banks, an old woman.
The program is open to the pub-lic and is free of charge. It is es-timated that the entire production will last about an hour and a half.
Chapel Services On Campus Today
"Vision in These Times" is the
topic chosen by Mrs. Florence
Bryant of the English department
for today’s Chapel Hour program,
which will begin at the usual 12:35
p.m. in the Little Theater.
Special music will be provided by Helen Latta, who will play a violin solo, "Arioso", by Bach. Her ac-companist is to be Howard Latta, pianist.
According to Advisor Dean Paul Pitman, prayer will be given by Betsy Hand. The prelude will be of recorded music.
Next week Chapel Hour, which thrives for students of all faiths, will feature the college A Cappella Choir under the direction of Wil-liam Erlendson of the Music de-partment faculty.

Old toys! Broken toys! Discarded toys! No, we are not
selling them, it’s just the Eighth annual Spartan Daily toy drive
getting under way.
Here is a chance for every member of the student body and faculty member to participate in a school activity, and not even a student body card is required Surely every student can find,
beg, borrow, or buy some toy which will go towards making some under-privileged child hap-pier on Christmas day. Look in the cellar, attic, in your room-mate’s animal collection, and in the leftovers from the scrap drives. Somewhere in every home, apart-ment, fraternity, or sorority house there is an object that can become a part of the toy pile.
ANNUAL SUCCESS In the last seven toy drives
sponsored by the Spartan Daily staff, enthusiasm and co-operation shown on the part of the students, faculty, and various organizations have been most heartening and have increased with each addition-al year. Maybe it’s been the yen to play Santa Claus or just to have that good old feeling that comes from giving at Christmas time. Whatever the motive, the Daily staff of 1942 is counting on the whims and generosity of students again this year to stack the toys high under the yuletide tree.
Contributions of every size and description will be gratefully ac-cepted for the limbs of the tree in the Publications office. Antiquat-ed, chipped, broken, torn�any of the more decrepit cast-offs of the kid sister or brother can still be used. If you live away from home, trot down to the local 5 & 10 stores and buy something or bring the money into the Publications office.
What happens to these toys after staff members are through having a big time with them? Well, they’re turned over to the Salva-tion Army where a series of reju-venation treatments are applied. They are then distributed at Christmas to hundreds of children who would otherwise be deprived of the suspense, fun, and yuletide spirit that comes with the receiv-ing of gifts at Christmas time. Money that is collected from those who prefer to donate dimes and quarters is used to buy gifts suit-able for children in bed. These toys are given to the Children’s Preventorium of the County Hos-pital.
TOY DRIVE DANCE Climaxing the toy drive is the
annual Toy Drive Dance. This year the Spartan Daily staff in-vites all students to the Student Union from 4 to 6 o’clock on Thursday, December 10. Admission to the dance will be a toy or 10 cents. Plan to attend, since you’ll not only have a good time, but also have a chance to swing into the Christmas spirit and inflate that ole ego by giving some child a chance to have a merry Christ-mas.
Concert Features Benning Dexter
The San Jose State college Sym-phony Orchestra will present its first concert of the season Decem-ber 8 at 8:15 p.m. In Morris Dailey auditorium.
Soloist for the program Is Ben-fling Dexter, head of the college piano department, who has ap-peared as concert pianist on the campus many times during the past three years. He recently played on an NBC shortwave broadcast to South America.

CAMPUS COWENT �Gasoline rationing extends Its
grip over the whole country today.
From now on we can all expect to
stay near by.
Entertainment will be scarce
over the week-ends. Theaters are
already overcrowded, and many
more persons will be clamoring for
something to do.
0110 A few students were gathered
outside one of their rooms yester-
day discussing this subject. They
came, to the conclusion that some-thing should be planned for each week-end. Something that all the students could attend.
Student body dances with "off the record" music would greatly aid the entertainment shortage. Student officers should do their best to see that some solution to the problem is reached. It is too late to get any program in swing this quarter, but plans could be made for the next year.
By DEAN THOMPSON
Perhaps skating parties will
come into popularity. There has
been some talk of the Ice Bowl
reopening this winter. That would undoubtedly help.
Bowling parties would interest many students. A plan might be made with one of the bowling "palaces" to turn over all of the alleys to State students on the night of a bowling party.
Sports contests will probably
draw larger crowds. Collegiate basketball games and collegiate boxing may rise to new heights In both college and community popularity.
To sum up the situation, we must make the best of the enter-tainment that we will have. If each of us does his part, there will
always be something to do. Per-haps we will all become better ac-
quainted.

ARMY RATIONS SHOWN HERE
I Itt, e you scot t he 12 ...,ounce dinner the paratroops carry with them? Do you know what the "Logan" bar looks like, the sol-dier’s scouting duty food, his meals for one day in a fox hole? These emergency field rations and photo-graphs of recent desert maneuvers are displayed this, week in the Home Economics building.
This exhibit has been collected and arranged by Leone Hampton Woods, a member of Dr. Jones’ Methods class, with the co-opera-tion of the Army Public Relations department at San Jose and the Cooks and Bakers’ school at the Presidio in San Francisco. These groups both loaned emergency field rations and photographs to the class for San Jose State college students to view.

JUST AMONG OURSElf By DR. T. W. MacQUARRIE

I have been writing thank-you
notes to everyone I could think of
who had anything to do with our
recognition by the Association of
American Universities. I have
been able to get in touch with
most of them, I believe, but I hard-
ly know how to reach the mem-
bers of last year’s graduating class.
They were the valiant ones, you
know, who were so suddenly called
upon by the Association of Ameri-
can Universities to take the Carne-
gie Foundation examinations. They
sat and worked for two mortal
days last spring on examinations which they had never even heard
about. They took them at our
earnest request, and because the
A. A. U. required it as a part of
our application for recognition.
As I understand it, no examina-
tions of that kind had ever been
given before. It was new wrinkle � and tout foolor thing which especially 14,SAN hard for us was that they
made for a liberal arts coney, sp( did not recognize the no education. Since a good to, our seniors were going to 18 era, much of their spent! Cora knowledge did not count.
Still they must have dohe well. I have seen those and they checked up v ery with other averages. I wig ;hating friends of 1941 to know thtcollege appreciates the *rim they did. We all &apron* good sportsmanship in take/

SAN
SPORTS SCRAPS By
"SCRAPPY" SQUATRITO
Canoe next Tuesday night, what promises to be one of the
interesting cage seasons in Sparta’s history will get under
when the Coast Guard quintet headed by Stanford’s Jim
°tad tangle with the Spartans in the local gym. Gasoline
ming will be in effect when the cage sport rolls around and
the first time basketball may pay for itself. The Spartans.
nine members out of 13 back from last year’s squad, are
ed to field a pretty strong team, but will also face one of
toughest schedules since San Jose was a member of the Northern California Intercollegiate Conference.
St. Mary’s Pre-Flight seems to rate the top spot as far as compe-tition goes with the great Angelo "Hank" Lusietti leading a cast of former All-Coast and All-Amerien basketball stars. Coach Ed Blesh has tried to schedule Stanford and California, but as yet hasn’t had much success. Whether the Indi-ans and Bears will meet the Spar-tans will not be known until after December 13, when the Pacific Coast Conference holds its meeting.
As the Conference schedule now stands, the Indians and Rears have no spot for the locals, but if they can get the rest of the PCC mem-bers to allow them to play all their road games in one trip, they will have room for San Jose. Thus all we can do is to cross our fingers.

Gamma Phi Vs. Beta Chi Today
Resuming play after a week’s lay-of, f , Spart a’s interfraternity football league goes back into ac-tion this afternoon when Gamma Phi Sigma and Bela Chi Sigma tangle on the San Carlos turf.
Comparative records of the two teams against common foes give the Gamma Phi gridders an edge in the betting circles. However, Beta Chi showed a lot of scoring power in their last engagement against APO when they took the latter team by an 18 to 6 score. Highlighting the game will be the fact that Gamma Phi will be fight-ing to maintain their undefeated status. To date, they have not tasted defeat although they have been betel tea ties by two opponents.
Other games this week will find last year’s champs and this year’s No. 1 team � DSG meeting the doormat DTO team in what should be a pushover for Gager, Bacon and Co. on Wednesday, and
undefeated but once-tied SGO tak-ing on the sometimes up sometimes
down APO men on Thursday.
Diederichsen Sends Soccermen Against San Mateo Junior College Eleven In Final Home Appearance Of Season Tomorrow Afternoon At Spartan Field
Playing their last home game of the season, the title-bound Spartan soccermen will meet San Mateo J. C. on the Spar-tan Field near the Stadium to-
morrow at 3:30. Coach Roy Diederichsen ran
his squad through a tough of-fensive drill last night in prep-aration for tomorrow’s contest. The big gold machine is not suffering from any serious in-juries at present, so they should be at full strength to-morrow. Although he was bothered by an ankle injury for a time, Bud Racoosin, Spartan center forward, con-tinues to look good in his new-ly acquired position and hopes to add a few more goals to his
string against the glen Mateo squad.
Although they don’t base an impressive record, the boys
Irons up the peninsula may give the locals a full afternoon. Coach Diederichsen fears that his team is looking ahead to
the San Francisco State game Saturday and has forgotten about tomorrow’s contest.
After looking over recent football results, Diederichsen feels more and more that San Mateo may be the team to beat. Underdog schools have in the past two weeks, risen up and smacked down two of the ation’s top collegiate elevens simply because the favorites were not pointing for the game � they were looking
ahead for bowl bids. So with the Spartans. Died-
erichsen believes; they May be looking ahead to a fourth con-secutive NCI title.
Now that the squad is within sight of their goal, another soccer title, Diederichsen does not want to have the season marred with a loss to a second division team.
However, continuous work-outs throughout their entire three-week rest from confer-ence play hasn’t hurt Spartan chances for a victory tomor-row. "At least the boys won’t be suffering from lack of prac-tice," Diederichsen said. "If anything, they may be a little stale from over-work," he added.
DEE PORTAL
Novice Winners May Be Fighting For Varsity Maces
S ’thing more than just a
medal may well he in store for the
winners in next week’s Novice
Boxing tournament, declares pu-
gilistic mentor DeWitt "Dee"
Portal.
Faced with the possible loss of
all but one veteran from his last
year’s star-studded varsity boxing
team, Portal has announced that
the other berths will be "wide
open," and the novice winners will
seem to have best chance to fill
them.
Watches Novices
"This is the first year in my
coaching career here that I’ve been
faced with such a shortage of expe-
rienced men," Portal says, "but
there seems to be. a wealth of tal-
ent among the novices now work-
ing out for the tournament, so
rm keeping my fingers crossed."
The departure for army service
of Charlie Townsend, Pacific Coast
Collegiate lightweight champion,
yesterday left a big gap in Por-
tal’s squad; and now it appears
that Woody Gibson, experienced
light-heavyweight, and Bob Web-
ber, PCC finalist last year and
third-place winner in the nation-
als the year before, will also be
among the missing next quarter
when the season starts.
Only Smith Left
Portal had previously lost Dick
Miyagawa, national 127 - pound!
champion, to a Japanese restora-
tion camp, and later on his ace
heavyweight, Frank Miran!, left
school via the draft.
So far Stan Smith, a rugged
middleweight, is the only veteran
that Portal is sure will be on hand,
’rime for today’s encounter be-
tween Gamma Phi and Beta Chi
has been set for 4:15, announced!
league czar Joe Weitzenberg.
SPARTAN WRESTLING STOCK ZOOMS AS FOUR INTERCOLLEGIATE CHAMPS REPORT FOR DAILY WORKOUTS IN GYM
With prospects for a champion-
ship squad looking bright indeed,
Coach Sam Della Maggiore is giv-
ing his wrestlers stiff work-outs daily in the local gymnasium.
Cheered greatly by the presence of an abundance of good material in most divisions, the husky men-tor predicted that this year’s squad will be one to reckon with in ama-teur wrestling circles. Among those returning to boost the Spar-tan mat machine’s stock are three Pacific Coast intercollegiate wrest-ling champions in the varsity divi-sion, and last year’s Far Western kingpin in the freshman division.
Heading the list of champs is
Davey Hines, Far Western and PCI champ for two years straight. The
blonde judo coach will wrestle this
year in the 165-pound division. Next in line on the star-studded
roster is Hans Weidenhoffer, pres-
ent 165-pound titleholder who will
wrestle at 175 pounds this year.
The third titleholder is Ivan Olsen,
head man on the Pacific slope in
the 136-pound group last year.
Completing the quartet of cham-
pions is Harold Janie, I45-pound
freshman leader in the Far West.
Along with these men, sam Is
counting on Grey McConnell, Bill
Perry and John Dahl, three rugged gridders, to gain points in the
heavyweight division, and Al Long, former frosh star at 175 pounds to give Weidenhoffer a run for his
money in the light-heavyweight
group. So far, the Spartans have a
meet scheduled with UC’s Bears,
two with Camp Roberts, and a meet with St. Mary’s Pre-Flight.

THREE ADDITIONAL GROUPS JOIN GROWING LIST OF WASHINGTON SQUARE RED CROSS WORKERS
Three more organizations have been added to the ever-
increasing list of campus Red Cross workers, it was announced
yesterday by Mrs. Mildred Winters, general chairman of the
unit.
Pi Epsilon Tau, general elementary honor society, has
taken over the sewing room for the hour between 4 and 5 on
Tuesdays and Thursdays. This
means that, though the working
day was originally scheduled to
close at 4, it has been extended
Delta Beta Sigma.
The other newly-signed organiza-
tions are Kappa Kappa Sigma and
until 5 o’clock.
PUBLIC SERVICE WORK
Members of Pi Epsilon Tau have
always done some sort of public
service work, and this Red Cross
sewing will take the place of what
they were formerly doing this
quarter . . . picking tomatoes and
helping with other crops every
other week.
There are 25 girls in the group,
which has been divided so that
some work on Tuesdays, and the
rest on Thursdays.
Instigator of the idea of work-
ing as a group instead of as indi-
viduals was Miss Elsie Bursch.
Captains of the sewing groups are
Misses Elsie Toles, Enes Veglia,
and Virginia Davis.
AWARD GIVEN
It has also been announced by
Mrs. Winters that a service pin
will be awarded to Miss Susan
Byrne, member of the Art depart-ment faculty, who has completed
over 100 hours of sewing and knit-ting for the Red Cross this quarter.
All other girls who have signed up to work for the unit are urged to keep putting in their hours in room 32 so that the quota of fin-ished garments for the quarter will be reached.
GOLFERS HELP Oh, yes .. . another "group" has
been added to the campus unit, with work by Its members deter-mined by the weather. When it is raining, Mrs. Vivian Gordon sends her golf classes over to room 32 to sew for the Red Cross.
"Last week we were deluged not so much by the rain, but by the number of workers who poured in at the 11, 12 and 1 o’clock hours. Now when we fall behind in our schedule, all we have to do is pray for rain!" says Mrs. Winters.
What D’Ya Know! Photography Professor George
E. Stone comes to Life. What we mean is Life magazine.
He sputtered and muttered inco-herently as he peered at a two-page spread of one of New York’s latest musical comedy reviews.
There was a picture of George E. Stone, Japanese candid camera fiend. The professor’s head was whirling. He tried to be an Aris-totle and work the situation out logically, but he was just plain George E. Stone.
He wanted to sing and forget it, but he was no Bing Crosby. Just plain Georgie Stone. "If my stu-dents see this, my name is mud," he said. But we know his name is George E. Stone.
The fact of the situation is that another man by the name of George E. Stone Is playing the part of a Japanese agent in a New York City Broadway show. The agent is a camera fiend. When interviewed, our Stone came clean and said, "It’s true, my name is George E. Stone, and I am a camera fiend, but I am not a Japanese agent-period "
