Mlle. Eve Curie
Tells Womren' s
Peet I War
(Continued from Page 1)
and munitions makers toaay in
France.
Mile. Curie, usually gay and optim-
istic, becomes serious when she speaks
of the war. "The French do not con-
sider it a joke," she points out. She
is firmly opposed to armed aggres-
sion-"we can only hope that it will
be short.
"However, we are prepared for a
long war. Bad as the war is it is not
much worse than the kind of rpeace
which immediately preceded the war.
We French people realize that the
kind of persecution and oppression
with which we have been faced these
last several years cannot be tolerated.
It must end forever."
Of American neutrality, the young-
est member of a great scientific fam-
ily, states, "France is proud of Ameri-
can sympathy, but does not feel that
America is needed in the conflict. We
have too many soldiers already."
Mlle. Curie will be introduced in
Hill Auditorium by Alice C. Lloyd,
Dean of Women. She has contracted
for forty lectures during her visit.
This will be the sixth lecture of this
year's Oratorical Series.

The program, presented by the

ludes," the Chromatic Fantasy and
Fugue, Three Preludes and Fugues

people will be accommodated each
night, and that it is advisable to re-
serve' places at once by mail or tele-
phone. Admission price will be $1.

Camps Paths
Thj-ig*'I So -
Cause Damage
The old problem of vandalism and
destruction of University grounds and,
equipment has cropped up again with
the coming of winter, building andl
ground officials said yesterday. 1
Plagued throughout the fall by the
paint thattwarringclasses smeared
over University signs and buildings
before Black Friday, the building and
grounds department must now deal
with the havoc caused by paths made
through the snow.
Paint on University property caused
at least $500 damage last semester,
it was estimated yesterday, and other
damage such as defacing of signs and
destruction of shubbery forced the
University to an approximate total
expenditure of $1,000.
Unknown now is the amount the
University will have to spend as a re-
sult of the many paths hurrying stu-
dents are now making. These paths
which will necessitate reseeding in the
spring, are all over campus, it was
said.
Amateur trailblazers have dispensed
with the long walk from Angell Hall
to the Union, having worked out a
short cut that provides a perfect hy-
potenuse to the walks formerly used.
Ifaven Hall's approaches are now
joined by homemade path, and the
broad stretches about the diagonal
walk are covered with a network of,
paths, ingeniously formed even though
unthought of by engineers.

ties smoker held each year at. this

At this time eligible freshmen will

rious campus extracurricular activi-
ties, Kerner said. Campus leaders

sented on the program are: The

dent Religious Association, Alpha
Phi Omega, a scout organization, and
