THE MICHIGAN DAILY THURSDAY, .Nt mp . I I Ma" NOTED SPEAKER: U.S. Commissioner Sayre To Open Oratorical Series _ : : : z Speaking on "Our Relations with the Philippines," the Hon. Francis B. Sayre, United States High Commis- sioner to the Philppines at the time of the Japanese invasion, will open the Oratorical Association series Nov. 16 in Hill Auditorium. Sayre, who succeeded Paul V. Mc- Nutt as High Commissioner to the Islands in June, 1939, has maintained a consistently friendly attitude to- ward Philippine independence. In contrast to McNutt, who insisted on retention of the Islands, Sayre de- clared in Manila that the Philippines Student Choir Reorganizes Tryouts Accepted May Receive Music Credit The University Choir which per- formed at numerous functions in 1940 is reorganizing for both men and women students and servicemen who wish to participate in the sing- ing of a varied repertory for their own pleasure.

Ann Arbor Bird Club Is Formed Representatives of the Michigan Audubon Society and the Detroit Bird Club, presided over by Joseph J. Hickey, met in Ann Arbor October 14 to form an Ann Arbor Bird Club. The organization will endeavor to arouse greater knowledge and ap- preciation of birds'among the people of Ann Arbor and will serve .s a gathering place for all those inter- ested in ornithology. would be granted their independence in 1946. Before taking office, Sayre gained familiarity with the Islands as chair- man of the Joint Preparatory Com- mittee on Philippine Affairs and as a member, since 1934, of the body planning new economic ties between the United States and the proposed independent Philippines. Wary of the possibility that the Filipinos may be steered toward dic- tatorship, Sayre has insisted that in the years preceding independence they must learn how a democracy should be run. In 1933, President Roosevelt ap- pointed him Assistant Secretary of State in which position he worked directly under Secretary of State Hull in the formulation of the recent reciprocal trade treaties. His earlier diplomatic experience was gained as adviser in foreign affairs to ' the Siamese government. A member of the faculty of the Harvard Law School for more than twenty years, Sayre served also as assistant to the president of Williams Couege. Sayre has written a number of books on law and international affairs, the most recent being "The Way Forward" (1939), "America Must Act" (1935) and "Cases on the Law of Admiralty" (1929). Pollock.. (Continuedi from Page 1) migratory workers, wives with theirasoldier husband, and our large displaced population, will all serve to out down the total vote. If the ballots total less than 48,- 000,000 Pollock thinks Dewey will be the winner. In past elections the upper economic one-fourth and the older groups have been the mainstay of the G.O.P. Also, a larger percen- tage of those groups always vote; conversely, the lower economic third and the young folks largely favor Roosevelt. If these last two named groups push the total vote past that 48,000,- 000 mark, then Roosevelt will be the likely victor, according to the pro- fessor. The soldier vote, he points out, is unpredictable and may upset all calculations. He also added that it is votes which count and not registrations. G.O.P. Ahead In Michigan Legislatures Reapportionment May Give Democrats Some Detroit Aid in House - By The Associated Press LANSING, Nov. 1.-Both Republi- cans and Democrats concede that the G.O.P. will retain its control of both the State House of Representatives and Senate in Tuesday's election. The Democrats look for a small increase in their numerical strength in the house, principally due to re- apportionment of legislative seats giving Detroit-a stronghold of their party-21 instead of 17 seats. Neither party expects much change in the senate partisan lineup. Last Election Score In the last election, 74 Republicans and 26 Democrats were elected to the House, while 25 Republicans and seven Democrats were elected to the Senate. A grand jury investigation of char- ges of legislative graft, which has caused the imprisonment and sen- tence to imprisonment of 12 legis- lators, has heightened interest in the campaign. Ten house members convicted of taking graft in a conspiracy have lost their seats. Two others await trial, one on a charge of perjury and the other on a graft warrant. Reapportionment of Seats Reapportionment of legislative seats has raised the house member- ship of Detroit, a Democratic strong- hold, from 17 to 21 members, and the Republicans have not seriously challenged the Democratic claim that all of 21 will be Democrats. The Deorai high command says it will also elect a Democrat from Macomb County, one from Oakland County, may pick up a cou- ple of additional Upper Peninsula seats, and one from St. Clair County because of dissension among Repub- licans in the latter county over a primary election contest. The Senate was not reapportioned. Truman 'Hits' Dewey PARKERSBURG, W. VA., NOV. 1 -(VP)-Gov. Thomas E. Dewey was described tonight by Senator Harry S.
