Harriman
*TalkSlated
Plans were set rolling to invite
Averell Harriman to speak Oct. 13
here by the Students for Steven-
son at their meeting last night.
Since Harriman will be in the
vicinity of Washtenaw County, the
organization decided to take ad-
vantage of it and extend an in-
vitation to the New York Demo-
crat.
MAIN SPEAKER at last nights
meeting, Prof. Theodore Newcomb,
head of the social psychology de-
partment, explained to the large
audience that the factors of resi-
dence area, religion and class stat-
us are most likely to influence a
person's political preference.
A voter will consistently cast
his ballot for the same party be-
cause he is subject to the same
group influence, he said. For this
reason, Prof. Newcomb' added,
only 12% even consider both
parties.
The psychology pr6fessor con-
sidered the non-voter the most
critical element in an election. The
non-voter, he claimed, is usually
Democratic.
Because there has been confu-
sion over the name of the Steven-
son group, the Ann Arbor Citizens
for Stevenson decided at an execu-
tive meeting last night that it
would retain its present title and
the campus organization would' be
called Students for Stevenson.
Local Politicos
Meet Tonight,
Tomorrow
Various campus political groups
will be holding meetings today ard?
tomorrow.
Democratic congressional can-
didate Prof. John P. Dawson of
the law school will speak at the
first meeting of the Students for
Dawson Committee at 7:30 p.m.
today in the Union.
Prof. Dawson, who is running'
against incumbent George Mead-
er, will speak on the whole na-
tional and local election picture.
AT THE SAME time the Civil
Liberties Committee will be meet-
ing in Rm. 3B of the Union.
On the other side of town,
Prof. Preston Slosson of the his-
tory department will speak on
"Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson and
Civil Rights" at 8 p.m. in the
council chambers of city hall.
The meeting, sponsored by citi-
zens for Stevenson, is open to te
public. A question period will fol-
low Prof. Slosson's speech.

THE CAMPUS UNESCO council

* *
eeting last night made an attempt
Ann Arbor, but due to scheduling
Odifficulties, the plan fell through.
County Democratic officials
explained that Gov. Stevenson
would not have time to come to
Ann Arbor and still maintain
an itinerary that will carry him
to Detroit where a major speech
will be delivered Tuesday night.
Gov. Stevenson will arrive at the
airport at 2 p.m. where he will be
met by all of Michigan's Demo-
cratic candidates.
Following a short meeting be-
tween the governor and State
Democratic officials, a motorcade
will take the group into Ypsilanti.
THE SPEECH, the topic of
which was not been announced,
will be given outside the .auditori-
um, weather permitting. Prof.
John P. Dawson of the Law
School, Democratic candidate for
Congress, will introduce Gov. Ste-
venson to an anticipated crowd of
10 to 15 thousand.
A ten-minute speech by the
Demorcatic presidential hopeful
is also on tap for Willow Village
following the Ypsilanti address.
Although the governor plans to
visit the State again in late Oc-
tober, County Democratic officials
said that he would probably not
-stop at Ann Arbor.
Teamwork
NEW YORK-(P)--Columbia
University's student newspaper
yesterday declared its opposi-
tion to Gen. Dwight Eisenhow-
er, the university's president on
leave.
The paper, the Columbia
Daily Spectator, said Eisenhow-
er in his presidential campaign
had forsaken "principle for ex-
pediency" and shown himself
a "plodding, orthodox, unimag-
inative thinker."

BROOKLYN (IP)-Joe Black, a
rookie pitcher turned starter in a
"shoot the works" gamble by Man-
ager Chuck Dressen, mastered the
ever-winning New York Yankees
yesterday, 4-2, while the booming
home run bats of Jackie Robinson,
Duke Snider and Pee Wee Reese
brought Brooklyn the opening day
victory in the' 1952 World Series.
* ,
SNIDER'S tremendous two-run
blast in the sixth, sailing in a high
arc' over the shiny electric clock
atop the right field scoreboard,
was the payoff in this contest
watched by 34,861, a series record
for Ebbets Field.
By whipping Allie Reynolds,
the Yankee ace, in the opener,
the Brooks took a giant stride
toward their goal of bringing
a world championship to Brook-
lyn after five misses.
Defense,, as much as the home
runs, told the story of this well-
playedethriller. The Dodgers were
all over the place. Furillo's whip
arm discouraged Phil Rizzuto from
trying to score from third in the
fourth. Pafko cut down an over-
ambitious Gil McDougald going
from first to third in the fifth.
Pafko also made a sliding grab of
Hank Bauer's dropping fly for the
final out in the fifth.
COX, toasted as the best fielding
third baseman in the game, lived
up to his notices with two fine
plays in the seventh, ranging to
his left to start a rally-killing dou-
ble play on McDougald's smash
and backhanding Billy Martin's
blazer back of third to throw him
out on a fine Deg to Gil Hodges.
It was a 1-1 tie when Snider
stepped up in the sixth. Robin-
son's second-inning belt on a
3-2 pitch into the lorwer left
field stands had been balanced
by McDougald's homer in the
third.
Black, who saw only nine pitches
--all strikes-during his three
brief stays at the - plate, was

CHEJU ISLAND, Korea-Five
hundred Red Chinese prisoners
unleashed their first big riot on
their "independence day" yester-
day.
The first official estimate of 45

and bloody history of Communist
prisoner violence in Korea.
A board of army officers flew
to the island to begin an inves-
tigation.
CHICAGO-The first elevator
operators strike in Chicago's his-

pled business operations in 120
buildings.

YR Plans
NixonTalk
The controversial GOP vice-
presidential candidate, Sen. Rich-
ard Nixon, will give a. major talk
here sometime late this month,
Young Republican Club officials
said last night.
Dave Cargo, Grad., member of
the YR executive board, said that
national Republican officials had
approved the so-far unscheduled
speech. Sen. Nixon will deliver his
address at Hill Auditorium or
some other large campus speaking
hall, according to Cargo.
The speech is tentatively
planned for the third week in
October.
In their first meeting of the fall
semester, the YR group made
plans to parallel other "get out
the vote" drives in the city. Chair-
man of the Ann Arbor GOP or-1
ganization William Dobson told
YR's that their major problem in
this traditionally Republican dis-
trict was to "deliver the maximum
votes to offset Democratic votes in
industrial districts."

14,000 Hear
Eisenhower
At Jackson
Candidate Gives
ForeignPolicy
Special To The Daily
By HARRY LUNN
JACKSON - Gen. Dwight D.
Eisenhower received tremendous
ovations here and throughout
Michigan yesterday as he outlined
Republican foreign policy goals
and blasted corruption in govern-
ment.
Speaking before an estimated
14,000 people, many of whom had
come 40 miles or more to hear him
at Jackson, the presidential candi-
date warned that the world can-
not be free without a free and sol-
vent America.
"Our task must be effective
leadership for an almost defeated
world," Eisenhower asserted. To
accomplish these aims, we must
keep governmental expenditures
within our means, he emphasized.
* * *
THE GENERAL'S S'ate tour
took him to-seven key cities yes-
terday where an estimated 100,000
people saw and heard him. Crowds
ranged from 5,000 to 20,000 at the
back-platform talks from hiscam-
paign train.
At several stopsmistakes In
timing cut short his speeches,
and the train pulled out too fast,
leaving both Eisenhower and
huge track-side audiences an-
noyed.
All along the whistle stop route
he chiefly attacked Administra-
tion foreign policy, although he
covered other major issues.
Charging that the Democrats
had fomented disunity in America
on the foreign policy issue, the
GOP standard-bearer said the
Truman administration has claim-
ed all the credit for the successes
while obscuring the contributions
of the Republicans in foreign pol-
icy formulation.
ACCORDING to observers, Eis-
enhower drewlarger crowds and
received a greater ovation than
did Gov. Adlai Stevenson when
the Democratic nominee covered
part of the same Michigan area
last Sept. 1.
A caravan of more-tlian 30
automobiles brought an esti-
mated 250 Washtenaw County
Eisenhower supporters to Jack-
son. Many students went along
on the trip and participated in
ceremonies there.
Decorated with signs reading
"Let's Clean Up the Mess" and
" *e Want Ike and Dick," the mot-
orcade made a colorful procession.
All told, 14 counties sent repre-
sentatives to the Jackson program.
Around 4 p.m. torrents of rain
poured down on the city causing
consternation, among the recep-
tion committee which had sched-
uled a huge parade in open con-
vertibles.
However, the rain stopped just
as Eisenhower's special train rolled
in on schedule at 4:40 p.m., and
the gala parade, complete with two
bands, 32 open convertibles and
showers of confetti, got under way.
