These units will be set up in the area between the Student Union and the library, and south of the Technology Building. No permit is necessary in order to have an X-ray taken free of charge. The .tuberculosis survey is a part of the work of the United States Public Health Service, and everyone over 15 years of age is urged to participate. Early ТВ displays no warning symptoms.

Students with all types of acts may compete. Solo-- ists should bring their own ac¬ companists. Directors of the show will choose their talent first and then build a simple script around it. In the past the script has been written before tryouts were held. By using the new method judges will be able to find the best tal¬ ent available. Deep Purple Music Music from “Deep Purple” will probably be used for the back¬ ground of the Crafty Hall show.

The Sophomore, Junior and Senior Classes follow in that order.

Deadline for turning in receipts from new ASB’ers is Wednesday. At this time, if less than 3600 City Collegians hold cards, the campus activities budget will be slashed accordingly, Fenner ex¬ plained. Multiple Benefits ASB cards are 10 dollars. They entitle each holder to free ad¬ mission to football games, plus a student rate on the Turkey Tus¬ sle and Junior Rose Bowl tilt, junior rate prices at all Fox West Coast Theaters in the area, ad¬ mission to assemblies, voting privileges and reduced rates for other collegiate activities. Upon payment of an additional dollar, collegians receive a copy of Cam¬ pus, the school yearbook. A card may be purchased on the installment plan, with a 30 per cent “down payment.” Club Day Channels Collegiate Interest It is hoped that everyone will attend a club meeting in which he has some interest, on Club Day, October 20. Bob Williams, in charge of Club Day arrange¬ ments, is stressing the following theme: “Attend a Club Meeting of your Choice.” Some of the clubs on campus that have already scheduled meet¬ ings for Club Day are Eagle Scout Club, Hi-liters, Sigma Tau Delta, Fabiolan Club and the Pasadena Promenaders.
