'Sense' Party
Gives Plans
Of Campaign
Publicity on Big
Scale Outlines
By LINDA SIMON
A "spectacular" publicity cam-
paign was outlined by the Com-
mon Sense Party at its meeting
at the Union last night.
Bill Allen, Grad, publicity chair-
man, announced that a minimum
of 5,000 flyers would be distribut-
ed before the December student
government elections. The mater-
ial will inform the campus popu-
lation of general aims and pur-
poses of CSP.
The complete CSP platform for
the coming elections is printed in
full in the space below.
Sponsors Speeches
A speech campaign, including
every housing unit and student or-
ganization on campus, will be
sponsored by the party. Non-can-
didiates will mainly comprise the
speaking "army" unless there are
not enough men to "go around."
Vishinsky Dies
Of Heart Attack
Foreign Minister Was Preparing
Important UN Atom Debate Speech
NEW YORK (A--Andrei Y. Vishinsky died of a heart attack yes-
terday while preparing for one of the most important debates in his
career as the Soviet Union's leading orator.
His blistering voice and brilliant mind had lifted him from the
role of obscure bureaucrat to world fame in the East-West cold war.
Vishinsky was 70. He died at 9;30 a.m. EST, the Soviet delegation to
the United Nations announced, at its headquarters on Park avenue
here. He had collapsed earlier, after attending a dinner given Sun-
day night by the French delegation.
Appoint Commission for Funeral
A Moscow broadcast announced yesterday that the Soviet gov-
ernment and Communist Party had appointed a commission to take
charge of the funeral of Vishinsky, and said his body would be brought

Sheppard . . .
CLEVELAND -- An old school
chum testified yesterday Dr. Sam-
uel H. Sheppard spoke twice with-
in three years of divorcing his
slain wife, Marilyn.
The osteopath is on trial for her
murder July 4.
On the second occasion, said Dr.
Lester Hoversten, he warned Dr.
Sheppard that his wife was a tol-!
erant woman and that "he might
actually be jumping from the fry-
ing pan into the fire."3
During less than half a day on
the witness stand, Dr. Hoversten
also testified:
1. He saw no sign of unhappi-
ness or discontent as a guest in,
the Sheppard home.
2. When he saw Dr. Sheppard,
a day after the murder, the de-
fendant wept and told him, "Why
couldn't they have killed me in-,
stead of Marilyn, because Chip-
his son-would need Marilyn more
than he would need me."

A funeral announcement is expect-

New York police were called, and
Lt. John McCarthy was admitted
to a room where Vishinsky lay

Speculation began immediately
on Vishinsky's successor. One pos-

Because of an Assembly Associa-

For the fifth consecutive year,
Assembly undertook the collection
of cans and packages of foods in
women's residence halls at special
"Tin Can Dinners" in the dormi-
tories last week-with no coed ad-
mitted unless she brought a por-
tion of food for the families.
Names of the food recipients
were given Assembly by the Dun-

Prof. Paul Dwyer of the mathe-

proposed calendars to the Univer-

meeting yesterday.
Main change explicit in the two
plans would cut the "lame-duck"
period between Christmas vaca-

present two weeks to one week.
No decision will be made until
the committee has studied pos-
sible ramifications of a calendar
change in the athletic program,
the Residence Halls set-up and
orientation program.
Basic difference between the two
plans involves scheduling the be-

one or two weeks after Labor Day.
Both plans wouldballow the full 15
