He wrote the song as a student member of the Trojan fans and players, the song has been used in numerous recordings Trojan Marching Band for the finale of a 1923 campus show. and movies. Legend has it that during World War II in the Pacific, an American task force attacked an island held by the Japanese. As the Americans stormed the beach, “Fight On” blared from the deck of one of the transports. The U.S. men let out a tremendous roar and eventually won the island.

“CONQUEST”

USC’s other famous song is the regal processional march, “Con- quest,” by Alfred Newman. This stirring battle cry, from Newman's score to the 1947 motion picture classic "Captain from Castile," has become synonymous with the championship tradition of USC since the Trojans adopted it in 1950. Newman, a legendary composer of film music, was the musical director of Twentieth Century-Fox Studios.
