Final Phase
Peace Key Issue
In National Fight
WASHINGTON-P)-The bat-
tle for control of the 82nd Con-.
gress goes into its critical week-
before-election phase tomorrow
with peace and national strength
emerging as key issues in a con-
fused, bitterly fought campaign.
That's the viewpoint of nation-
al party leaders swinging into the
final drive for a lion's share of
the Nov. 7 vote. They see the
country called upon to decide:
Does the record of President
Truman and a Democratic Con-
gress warrant a vote of confi-
dence?
Or would peace prospects be
brighter with Republicans at the
helm of congress during the last
two years of the President's
first full term?
Domestic and purely local issues
color the picture in many states.
There is, for example, the big la-
bor drive to unseat Republican
Senator Robert A. Taft in Ohio.
And in New York the much-pub-
licized "Hanley Letter" is one of
many issues without much to do
with national or world affairs.
But in other battleground states
-California, Pennsylvania, Con-
necticut and Illinois among oth-
ers-a dominant issue was the
"Fair Deal" and its performance
with regard to Communism, Korea
and the general security of the
country.
* * *
CHAIRMEN OF both parties
came pretty close to agreement on
what the issues are.
"I believe that the voters are
very deeply concerned with mak-
ing sure that this country's posi-
tive efforts to obtain security and
world peace are not interrupted
and that our national prosperity
is maintained and advanced,"
Democratic National Chairman
William M. Boyle, Jr., asserted.
And the Republican National
Chairman, Guy George Gabriel-
son, put It this way:
"The principal issue of the cam-'
paign is the demonstrated incom-
petence of the Democrat Congress
and Administration to achieve
peace or maintain an adequate
national defense."
WHICH SIDE will win?
Normally the party out of pow-
er expects to gain strength in a
midterm election. Gabrielson and
GOP Congressional leaders said
they expected their party to cap-
ture at least five Democratic Seats
in the Senate and 25 or 30 in the
House. They saw "a good chance"
of winning control in both houses.
To do that, they need a net gain.
of seven Senate seats plus 49 seats
in the House.
All told, 36 Senators are to be
elected, along with the full mem-
bership-435-of the House and
32 State Governors.

(Any items of news interest from
men's and women's dorms, league
houses and co-operative houses
should be given to Jane Ellzey at the
Daily or 9319.)
Selection of officers highlighted
the activities in several dorms this
week.
Stockwell Hall picked the fol-
lowing to direct dorm affairs:
president, Nan Holman, '51; as-
sociate president, Barbara Mar-
tin, '51; secretary, Florence Mor-
row, '51 and treasurer, - Libby
Rahm, '52.
Stockwell members have a spe-
cial project which they are spon-
soring again this year. The wo-
men are conducting a continual
nA11nin of lnthinr0A QII
if you're lucky enough not to be
right under the bomb and if you
follow these "six survival secrets:"
1-Try to get shielded. If you
have time, get down in a base-
ment or subway. If you're caught
outdoors, seek shelter alongside a
building-or hump in any handy
ditch or gutter.
2-Drop flat on the ground
or floor. To keep from being
tossed about or hit by flying
objects, flatten out at the base
of a wall or the bottom of a
bann
3-Bury your face in your arms.
This will protect your face from
flash burns, prevent temporary'
blindness and keep flying objects
out of your eyes.
4-Don't rush outside right af-
ter a bombing.
5-Stick to canned and bot-
tied foods and beverages. Un-
protected food and water may
have radioactive poison.
6-Don't start rumors. In the
confusion that follows a bombing,
a single rumor might touch off a
panic that could cost your life.

Trouble seemed to be the com-
mon denominator of college stu-
dents and on college campuses last
week.
Most of the difficulties weren't
world-shaking, but they were at
least thorny. At Texas, the Ku
Klux Klan, or someone acting in
its name, was making trouble; at
George Washington University, the
marching band was in trouble; at
Harvard the football team was
having its troubles-to put it mild-
ly.
* * *
THE TEXAS incident was an old
fashioned southern cross burning.
A six-foot cross, made of four by
fours and wrapped in kerosene-
doused rags was lit near the Uni-
versity's law building and burned
I for 15 minutes before the firemen
finally arrived.
After the fire nearly a dozen
sets of KKK's were found splat-
tered on various parts of the Law
Building.
Austin police thought that teen-
age pranksters might have pulled
the stunt.
But an elderly night watchman
had an explanation of one more
in the know about the ways of col-
lege men: "Just more trouble be-
tween those engineers and the law
students."
* ,'
AT GEORGE WASHINGTON,
the student paper mustered up all
its knowledge of vocabulary and
headlined: "GW Band Dying of
Apathy."
"I'm at my wit's end," it quot-
ed Band Director Leon Brusiloff
as saying. Brusiloff disclosed'
that to keep the band march-
ing he has recruited members
from local high schools, boys
clubs, other local colleges and
at times had even hired profes-
sionals.
But the expose suggested no so-
lution. All the article could do
along that line was quote des-
parate Brusiloff's desperate words:
"We need some kind of stimulus
to make those students join."
* * *
HARVARD'S difficulties were
athletic. On one horrible day Ar-
my's football powerhouse trampled
the Crimson 49-0, Army's jayvee
football powerhouse buried the
Crimson jayvee 41-0 and Harvard
frosh lost to Dartmouth 21-0.
Men from West Point even pum-
meled the Crimson soccer team 2-1.
This team had previously won four
straight.
Something had to be done.
Early this week the Harvard ath-
letie department announced that
effective 1952, Army and Cornell
(which had slaughtered Harvard
the week before) would be drop-
ped from the schedule.
But the Army debacle produced
a result probably closer to the ave-
rage Harvard man's heart. Hu
Flung Huey, ooC, Harvard Crim-
son football predictor for the last
21 years, resigned.
Sobbing brokenheartedly he told
the paper's editors that he had
never done so poorly in his whole
life, which was probably true. OoC
had been right only once in the
last 12 guesses on Harvard games
and had missed the last six in a
row.
But all was not gloom on cam-
puses. At Smith College te ad-
ministration decided that the girls
could smoke on the back steps of
the college's library, if they didn't
get boisterous or cluffer up the
vicinity with butts.
