Ike Blasts Adlai,
Hits Communism
WITH EISENHOWER IN ILLINOIS, Sept. 15 (/P)—Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower carried his presidential campaign in
to his Democratic rival’s home state of Illinois today with
blasts at quips and communism.
Eisenhower’s 18-car special train pulled into Englewood,
a South Side Chicago district:
AFL Gives
Democrats
Ful! Support
NEW YORK, Sept.' 15 (IP)-
AFL leaders keynoted their
8,000,000 members today toward
all-out political support of the
Democratic party.—and the first
presidential endorsement in their
history.
Their goal, outlined to the 71st
AFL Convention, is repeal of the
Taft-Hartley law. AFL President
William Green bitterly labeled it
that “obnoxious, dirty Taft-Hart
ley law.”
Green foresaw labor as “a very
deciding factor” in the November
elections.
And the approximately 800
convention delegates were told
they would be “strike breaking
at the ballot box” if they backed
supporters of Taft-Hartley—who
are chiefly Republicans.
Never before has the AFL Con
vention given all-out endorsement
to a presidential candidate. But
the temper today was such that
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey—a Repub
lican —wcindered in a welcoming
speech it this convention wasn’t
just “a Democratic clambake.”
An endorsement of Gov. Adlai
W. Stevenson for President is ex
pected next week, after he and
his Republican rival, Dwight D.
Eisenhower, have . addressed the
convention.

union, but that they could not do
so as long as the group was hold
ing a meeting which in effect
called many employes from their
work in violation of a state law.
(The law referred to is public law
1183, 'which forbids workers to
strike against an agency of the
State.)
The union walkout was spor
adic throughout the College.
Hardest hit were the dining halls
and the physical plant. At the
creamery, on the other hand, only
five of the 52 employees left their
posts.
As a result of the shortage of'
help in the dining halls, two of
the men’s serving are a s were
closed, and the men ate several
meals with the womdn in Mc-
Allister, Simmons, and McElwain
halls.

and he switched to an auto
mobile for a four county Illinois
tour before reboarding it.
The GOP presidential nominee
arrived in Illinois after seven
“whistle stops” in Indiana—high
lighted by a turnout of scores of
thousands' in South Bend.
Obviously referring to quips by
Democratic presidential nominee
Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson of Illin
ois, Eisenhower said the times'
and the issues were too serious
for amusing treatment.
The usually jovial general was
unsmiling as he declared Korea,
corruption, and communism were
“not funny.” ,
In attacking communism, inside
and outside United States borders,
Eisenhower referred to an expres
sion once used by President Tru
man. He told an audience against
a backdrop of steel furnaces at
Gary: •
“When we find that there have
been Communists in government,
and we get the answer ‘red her
ring,’ ladies and gentlemen, it is
time to clean the.m out —not only
the Communists . . . but . . . the
people that put them there.”
Police estimated 40,000 heard
Eisenhower speak from the St.
Joseph County Courthouse steps
in South Bend and that 60,000
saw him tour the city.
Combined estimates for all the
Eisenhower stops in Indiana put
the total crowds at about 150,000.
He told the South Bend crowd
he had heard that citizens them
selves were to blame for corrup
tion in government because gov
ernment corruption reflected pri
vate corruption—a point made by
Stevenson.

when 1200 students tried to sched
ule Music 5 when provisions had
been made for only 600.
Additional improvements will
be to have more students register
early and to send freshmen
through the system according to
an alphabetical order rather than
according to curriculum, Williams
said. In going by curricula, long
lines formed for courses common
to students in the curriculum
being processed.
Directors Due Next Week
Using the new system class
rolls for all courses were com
pleted by 2 p.m. Saturday, two
hours after Recreation hall closed.
The speed was accomplished by
using IBM machines to print the.
list.
Student directories will, be
available for all College offices
next week. They also will be
printed on IBM machines. No pre
diction has made as to when
the regular directories will be
published.

Penn State class rings may do so
from the following authorized
jewelers represented in State Col
lege, according to James Plyler,
chairman of the senior ring com
mittee: Balfours, Diegis and Clust,

last April. Another MIG also has
been destroyed by a carrier plane

change pilot, flying with the Fifth,

he will be credited with the des
troyed MIG.
Allied losses, if any, will be an

Eleven separate dog fights raged
from nearly six miles high down
to tree top levels when 80 MIGs
