Happy Birthday to You, Too As the University took a deep breath of Santa Ana winds to blow out the can- dles on its birthday cake, many famous names in southern California also cele- brated milestone years. Mickey, Minnie, and the rest of the gang at the Magic Kingdom joined Dis- neyland for a silver celebration. The par- ty in Anaheim was complete with a spe- cial birthday parade, firework displays, a mouseketeer reunion, and a three-day round-the-clock extravaganza marking 25 years since the park opened. The city of Los Angeles joined the par- ty as it kicked off its bicentennial cele- bration. T-shirts, bumper stickers, and buttons proclaiming I Love New York, but LA ' s the Place carried the theme of the year-long campaign. Mayor Tom Bradley named Berlin, Germany sister- city for Los Angeles, as festivals, fairs, and various celebrations launched LA into its third century. Kodak corporation joined USC in the festivities of a century of existence, while closer to home, structures on cam- pus had their own birthday parties. Mudd Hall of Philosophy and the bronzed Tommy Trojan gained golden recognition, and Widney Hall, USC ' s alumni house, became 100 years old. So happy birthday Tommy Trojan, Los Angeles, Widney Hall, Disneyland, Mudd Hall, and Kodak. Glad you coul join us — and many more Below: TALL AND PROUD — After 50 years of being used as a billboard, a tailor ' s dummy, and the object of college-rivalry ptranks, Tommy Trojan stands as regal as he did the first day he appeared on campus. Right: A STAR IS BORN — Mudd Halt of Philosophy, symbol of academic heri- tage, loas featured in many films and television shows its first 50 years, m- cluding the 1933 version of The Huncliback of ' otrc Dame. Right: JOIN THE PARTY — Beth Beckham takes part in the celebration with a rousing chorus of For He ' s A Jolly Good Fellow.
