The convening of the World Stu-
dent Conference today at Charles
University, Prague, marks the sixth
anniversity of the Nazi's massacre of
156 students in the city, a crime
which has since been remembered on
International Students Day.
About 200 delegates from demo-
cratic student organizations are
meeting to discuss a constitution for
a new International Federation of
Students.

the freedom-loving young people,

unity of feeling has been born of

Resignation of
Die CGaulle {Stirs
+Crisis in France
PARIS - UA) - A political crisis
stirred France tonight after Gen. De
Gaulle's office announced he had de-
cided to resign as Interim President
because of a deadlock with the pow-
erful Communist party over his new
cabinet.
.Sources close to the French leader,
however, said his letter of resignation,
as yet not made public, indicated a
willingness to continue efforts to
form a government. There was an
immediate flurry of political confer-
ences through the day.
The communist Party, which won
the most seats in the Constituent As-
sembly in the last election, had de-
manded "politial posts," including
one of the three top ministers-For-
eign Affairs, War, or Interior-as its
price for participating in a Coalition
government.
De Gaulle's letter was delivered to-
night to Felix Gouin, president of
the Constituent Assembly, which
elected De Gaulle Tuesday to serve
as president during creation of the
Fourth Republic.
Petitions Must
Be Filed Nov.24
Petitions for offices to be filled in
the Dec. 5 all-campus election must
be submitted to the Men's Judiciary
Council before Nov. 24.
Officers to be elected are two Union
vice-presidents, two members of the
Board in Control of Student Publica-
tions, senior officers of the engineer-
ing college and of the literary college,
and ten members of the J-Hop Dance
committee.
Students will also select a foreign
university to receive aid from the
fund-raising campaigns of the Stu-
dent Organization for International
Cooperation and the World Student
Service Fund.
Petition forms may be obtained at
th~e Student Offices of the Union.
Petitions should state the candidates'
qualifications, aims and views, and
must be signed by 25 students. Can-
didates must have eligibility cards
and must have two semesters of resi-
dence left on campus.

This is the call sent to students all
over the world by the National Union
of Czechoslovak Students, which,
with the Czechoslovak government,
is sponsoring the conference.
Czechoslovak students can truly
appreciate the need for unified action
to spread democracy and promote
peace. On November 17, 1939, the
Nazis murdered 156 of them and de-

Lecturer Tells
Of Differences
In Economies
"The Russian economy differs from
capitalist economies qualitatively as
well as in the quantity of government
regulation," Vladimir Kazakevich said
yesterday in a lecture in Rackham
Amphitheatre.
Government planning of industrial
production is one of these qualitative
differences, he said. Scarcity of labor
is one of the results of this planned
economy, since the plan expands
faster than the population.
When production is planned, prices
and consumption must also be plan-
ned, Kazakevich said. This results in
a domination of the law of supply
ind demand which controls capital-
ist economies.
Collectivized agriculture is another
characteristic of Soviet Economy, he
said. Agriculture in Russia is organ-
ized into collective farms, which are
run partly under socialist and partly
under private ownership, and Soviet
farms which are agricultural facto-
ries run by the government in which
workers are paid according to what
they produce..
Russia's biggest problem is to in-
crease its per capita production which
is still much lower than that of cap-
italist countries. Labor productivitiy
in the United States is one and one
half times more efficient than Rus-
sia's, Kazakevich said.
Choral Union
Will Present
Pianist Uniiisk y
Featuring Prokofieff's "Sonata No.
7, Op.83," the third Choral Union
concert will be presented by Alexan-
der Uninsky, distinguished Russian
pianist, at 8:30 p.m. tomorrow in Hill
Auditorium.
The program will open with three
Scarlatti sonatas to be followed by
the Beethoven "Sonata in E-flat ma-
jor, Op.31, No. 3." A group of Chopin
selections, including the "Nocturne in
D-flat major," "Waltz in G-fiat" and
three etudes, three Debussy composi-
tions and Liszt's "Spanish Rhapsody"
will complete the program.
Hailed as "one of the most remark-
able of present day virtuosi" by the
New York Herald Tribune, Uninsky
will make his first Ann Arbor appear-
ance as a part of his second trans-
continental recital tour. Within two
seasons in the United States the Rus-
sion pianist has skyrocketed to a
place among the major concert at-
tractions in this country.
At thirty-four, Uninsky has an ex-
citing history which began in Kiev.
He was graduated from the Paris
Conservatory at seventeen, won
the International Chopin Concurse
in 1932, subsequently concertized
throughout Europe and South Amer-
ica and fought in the French Army in

FOR IMPUDENCE EXTRAORDINARY:f
Varsity NightTo Sta
* _________________

Joe Gentile and Ralph Binge,
wacky mimics who have made insult-
ing advertising pay in six zero figures
for thirteen years on "The Early
Morning Frolic," will head the line up
for Varsity Night next Friday, Nov.
23.
They also will broadcast their reg-
ular program from 6 to 9:30 a. m.,
Saturday over station CKLW from
the Union ballroom.
Gentile and Binge last appeared
here in 1942 at an IFC Vanities show,
and Varsity Night will find them em-
ceeing again at Hill Auditorium. Any-
thing can happen when they take
over the stage to interview Tom Har-
mon, Bob Westfall, and Hal New-
houser. Even the instrumentally arm-
ed might of Professor William D.
Revelli and the University Concert
Band will have difficulty in coping
with the two impudent screwballs.
Spectators at the broadcast
should tell their friends to tune in,
because they can expect to be drag-
ged to the mike, willing or not, and
more than likely be thrown out of
the ballroom to the sound of a rip-
ping shirt (courtesy of the sound
effects man), after being preposter-
ously insulted by Gentile and Binge.
An ex-bookkeeper and dance hall
manager, Joe Gentile and his child-
hood pal, Ralph Binge teamed up
together in 1932. Binge was formerly
a plumber's helper, an amateur boxer,
and a door to door salesman.
The two comics are favorites of
Dr. Alexander G. Ruthven. On one
occasion, Dr. Ruthven asked them to
help him find a horse that had stray-
ed from his stables. Gentile and

Thanksgiving will be the theme of
maneuvers performed by the Uni-
versity Marching Band on the grid-
iron this afternoon, as announced by
Prof. William D. Revelli, director of
the band.
During the half, the band will
honor Purdue with its block P, after
which it wilf form the outline of a
Thanksgiving turkey. Appearing on
the scene, a hunter will shoot the
turkey, which will move down the
field at a fast gait. To complete the
slaughter, an oversized axe will be
used to chop off the turkey's head,
which will also move on down the
field. The turkey will finally appear
in its proper place, resting on a plat-
ter.
Continuing the Thanksgiving
theme, the band's next formation
will represent a church, inside of
which will be the University Choir
singing "Prayer of Thanksgiving."
Concluding its maneuvers, the band
will honor the university with its
