were bound up in another drawn-out

are demanding would require Allied
troops to retire south for from five to
fifteen miles. On the other side the
Allies are proposing a line that would
force the Reds from two hundred
square miles in the west. This plan
would require the Allies to leave about
the same distance in east and central

London—Last Friday King George
Labor Party was 13,877.922. For the
Conservatives it totaled 13.655.595, and
this group won the contest. The pop-ular
vote for the Liberals was the
highest ever polled by a single Brit-ish
party, but it was too concentrated
in the industrial areas to swing the
required number of districts. The Con-servatives,
on the other hand, were
pretty evenly spread out.
Monday Foreign Secretary Eden
burst into action by calling Sir Fran-cis

Assembly which meets in Paris

and French ambassadors that he

Expects Nomination
The first candidate to toss his hat
in the ring for the coming election,
Senator Taft marks this as his third i
attempt to gain the Republican nomi-nation.
The two previous times he was
defeated by Dewey. It is understood |
that Taft expects to have enough dele-gates
lined up in his favor by March
of '52 to give him the nomination on
the first ballot at the Republican con-vcntlon

D. Eisenhower, who has not yet an-nounced
his intentions publicly, but
whose supporters staunchly contend
that he will definitely be a candidate,
is Taft's closest competition.

Lord Bertrand Russell.
Third Series Lecturer,
Coming in November
Lord Bertrand Russell. 1950 winner
of the Nobel Prize for Literature,
cited by the Nobel Award committee
as "one of our time's brilliant spokes-men
of rationality and humanity, and
a fearless champion of free speech and
free thought in the West," appears as
the third lecturer on the campus lec-ture
series.
The philosopher whose books have
stirred up intense controversy through-out
the world, will speak at Aycock
Auditorium, November 5, at 8:0O PM,
on the topic, "Is Happiness Still Pos-sible?"
Born in England, May 8. 1872. Ber-trand
Arthur William Russell, the
third Earl Russell, Is the grandson
of Lord John Russell, British Prime
Minister under Queen Victoria. Be-fore
attending Cambridge University,
he was educated at home by gover-nesses
and tutors, acquiring a thor-ough
knowledge of French and Ger-man;
It has been said that his "admir-able
and lucid English style may be
attributed to the fact that he did not
undergo a classical education at a
public school."
Led Exciting Life
Lord Russell, holder of the British
Order of Merit, a Fellow of the Royal
Society, and a Fellow of Trinity Col-lege.
Cambridge, has led an adven-turous
life, writing, teaching, and lec-turing.
After graduating from Trinity
College in mathematics and moral sci-ences,
he was attached to the British
Embassy in 1894. The same year he
married and went to Berlin, where he
made a careful study of German so-ciety.
Shortly afterwards he began
his writing career, and Principa Wath-i
viatica, written with Alfred North
Whitehead. has been listed by Li/c as
one of the 100 great books of all
time. This has been followed by al-most
thirty books on philosophy, math-ematics,
science, and education, all
significant works in their respective
fields.
When World War I broke out. Lord
Russell turned his literary talents
toward the cause of conscientious ob-jection,
bringing out a pamphlet which
cost him a 100-pound fine. Undaunted,
he wrote an article expressing his
pacifist views for the Tribunal; this
attitude resulted in a six-months pris-on
sentence.
A Labor candidate for Parliament
In 1922-23. Lord Russell became a
member of the House of Lords upon
ascending to the earldom in 1931. Upon
entering political life he announced
his intention to devote his attention

Seniors Lower Dues
Make Plans for Sermon;
Kent Chosen Director
Tuesday night the Senior Class vot-ed
to lower the class dues from $2.00
to $1.29.
It was explained, during a discus-sion
of the matter, that the former
sum was suggested because of the
many additional expenses occurring
during the senior year, but alter a
reconsideration the Senior Council de-cided
that a lesser sum would be suf-ficient,
provided the class would agree
to an assessment in case of an emer-gency.
The class rescinded and discussed
an act of last Spring eliminating the
Senior formal, and reached the same
decision on the new vote. A motion
was passed to follow the examples
of last year's class and have a Senior
Show Instead of unmusical, and "Scot-ty"
Kent was elected chairman of the
show.
Acting on a suggestion made by a
class member, the class voted to make
a request to George M. Thompson that
the choir present a program of senior
request numbers some time during
commencement week.
Miss Schaeffer of the Placement
Bureau made announcements concern-ing
senior job opportunities and the
permanent records for the bureau.
Anne Preston gave a report on the
I niyersity Sermon, and Dr. EUKI I
Hunter thanked the class for dedi-cating
the annual to her.
