Swinton Cites
Correspondent'
Requirements
Stresses Background
In Country's Affairs
"You must know the language,
the politics and the people of the
nation or area you are covering if
you are going to gather and inter-
pret the news accurately and ef-
fectively," Stan Swinton, '40, said
in yesterday's journalism lecture.
According to the former chief
of the Associated Press' Southeast
Asia Bureau, a correspondent
should figure on doing a lot of
intensive reading about his assign-
ment before he actually reaches
it.
"OTHERWISE, he will be
spending much of his first few
months on the job studying local
conditions."
A diplomat's tact and suavity
are also pretty essential for a
a foreign correspondent, Swin-
ton said.
uiting problems encountered
during the Indonesian revolt,
Swinton remarked that the corre-
spondent must be especially care-
ful in handling' news coming from
two opposing governments or
forces.
Fadiman Talk
To End Series
Clifton Fadiman, seventh lec-
turer for the Oratorical Series, will
close the 1948-49 season at 8:30
p.m. Thursday when he speaks on
"Our Writers, Our Country and
Our Planets" in Hill Auditorium.
Fadiman is replacing Rebecca
West who was originally sched-
uled. West tickets will be accepted
for admission.
A NATIVE NEW YORKER and
a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of
Columbia University, Fadiman has
been a steady contributor to mag-
azines and newspapers for almost
a quarter of a century. He is per-
haps best known for his job as
master of ceremonies of the "In-
formation Please" program.
Tickets to the Fadiman lecture
will go on sale at the auditorium'
box office tomorrow.

Xtaftat in ht...
with Herb Rovner

There's been a new addition to
the radio world . . unwelcome as
it may be.
The dull piece of trivia is called
for some obscure reason the Henry
Morgan Show and stars such well-
known personalities as Fred Allen
(its eager sponsor), Patsy Kelley
and Arnold Stang, to mention
three ingredients of this unsavory
potage.
AS I UNDERSTAND it, Mr.
Allen decided to revive Henry
Morgan-though as far as this re-
viewer is concerned he might have
let him enjoy a tranquil death-
in an attempt to divert radio fans
from "Stop the Music," which is
broadcast at the some time as the
Henry Morgan Show.
However, the world-wise, wise-
cracking Mr. Allen should cer-
tainly be aware of the fact that
as long at "Stop the Music"
continues to offer thousands of
greenbacks to its radio public,
Mr. Morgan and company don't
stand a chance.
In fact, Morgan has already
conceded his defeat. Or, at least, so
I assumed from listening to one of
Morgan's conferees commenting
on the new show. Said Morgan's
neighborhood grocer, "My radio
has never been used so much. Cus-
tomers keep switching to other
programs."
The sad fate of Mr. Morgan,
who was for a while radio's most
engaging comic, is that his show
lacks all the zip and sparkle that

HENRY MORGAN
... Falling Star
;. *
made last year's shows tops on
the Hooper.
This year, however, Morgan's
gags sag, lag and drag. Maybe
some listeners like this new flat
and insipid comedian; but per-
sonally, I prefer the irrepressible,
sardonic lampooner who was the
scourge of the dignity-loving man
-an individual who bore the
brunt of Morgan's attacks. As far
as I am concerned, Henry Morgan
and "straight humor" is nix.

Spanish Play To Be Presented

Carlos Soares, - '49Grad., and
Nanette Emery, '49Grad., will play
the roles of the hero and heroine
respectively in the play "Puebla
de las Mujeres" which is to be
given by La Sociedad Hispanica
at 8 p.m. tomorrow and Thursday
at Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre.
Others in the cast are Joseph
Plazonja, Georgina Fierro, Ethel
Cada, Elizabeth Clapham, Murray
Budney, Elizabeth Iden, Thelma
Fife, John Riccardo, Naomi Ga-
berman, Alvin Mendelson, Rose
Marie Levin, and Jack Steinhel-

per. Tickets may now be pur-
chased at the box office.
"Puebla de las Mujeres," which
is subtitled, "The Women Have
Their Way," is the story of a
young man who comes to a small
town in southern Spain on bus-
iness and soon finds himself en-
tangled in a romantic affair
brought about by the town gossips.

WASHINGTON - Instruments
used by Navy scientists to measure

stall them in an airplane.

Vets T old To
Plan Summer
Session Now
Veterans planning to utilize G.I
Bill benefits for the coming
summer session must begin now
to make necessary arrangements
for Veterans Administration elig-
ibility certificates, the VA an-
nounced yesterday.
Those already in school under
the Bill intending to continue
their educations this summer in
a different school have been ad-
vised to apply immediately for a
supplementary certificate of elig-
ibility, VA officers added.
-* * *
THEY POINTED out that these
vets must have their supplemen-
tary certificates before they can
expect admittance to new schools
or courses.
If a veteran is not presently
in training but holds an unused
certificate of eligibility issued
prior to Sept. 1, 1948, he must
obtain a new one if he plans
to attend summer school, the
VA said.
Those without certificates of
any kind and intending to go to
summer school are advised to
make certificate application at his
nearest regional VA office.
* * *
VETERANS MAY obtain appli-
cation forms from the University's.
registrar's office or from any VA
office. The completed application
must then be sent on to the VA
regional office at 52 Starling St.,
Columbus 8, O.
