players. Such today is the situation

Showing the alocfly grand position
occupied BY the Trojans, it might be
pointed out that they still are enjoying

them sole right TO use the Coliseum

foot ball season over 10-year period

not play in an arena built and sup
ported by public taxes without per-
mission of the University of Southern
California, private institution.
But, then, U. C. L. A. was not born
when this arena was built, and South
