Co_cht, Steidle Won't Russia must control Turkey and the Dardanelles before she can afford to go to war, but Russia will not attack Turkey, was the opinion of Dr. Edward Steidle, dean emeritus of the College of Mineral Industries Dr. Steidle, who has recently returned from Turkey, spoke to the members of the Retirees' Club at a dinner held at the Al pha Zeta fraternity last week. The countries in Central Asia are under Russian domination, Dr. Steidle said, and any attack on Turkey might be expected to start a revolution in Central Asia. Wants Oil Fields "Russia would like to have the rich oil fields in Iran and Saudi Arabia, the greatest known oil reserves, but because of mountain barriers she would have to move the oil by water through the Dardanelles which Turkey con trols," he said. • Dr. Steidle pointed out that the Turks strongly resent the Soviet Union. And, he said, Turkey and Russia have been engaged in five wars with each other with the Tur k s being victorious three times. ,The resentment stems partly from the conscription by Russia of more than half a million men from East and West Turkestan at the beginning of World War 11, Dr. Steidle said. These Turks were placed with the Germans and joined Germany later in its attack on Russia, he said. Surrendered To Allies At the end of the war, he said, the Turks wanted to surrender to the United States, but were re quired to surrender to the Allies. Under the Yalta Agreement, he said, the men were to be returned to Russia. "Only about 22 of these 500,000 men were ever heard from again," Dr. Steidle pointed• out, "and these men escaped into Turkey." The Turks believe that many of the men who resisted were killed and others were placed in Brunhilda Says— (And what she says is always right) So do you want to look like a complete negeek for the Pitt game? Walking around barefoot just isn't the thing these days. The Indians did it, but wouldn't you look a tad bit strange on that after the game date playing Poca hontas? Let's face f acts group, Simon's isn't there on Allen street as a window dis play. They sell shoes (the ad is alxiut shoes you know). They sell the best footwear in town (I told you it was about shoes). For example, that new black suede heel-less dress shoe is the end. Two black straps and hup! That's it. (The cotton pickin` things really are comfortable too). How about it Pocahontas or popularity? 109 S. Allen St. Says Reds Attack Turks labor camps and probably are now dead, he said. This was done partly for revenge and also to deprive East and West Turkestan of these trained men, he said. A common religion throughout the Middle East is a block to possible Russian aggression, Dr. Steidle said. The people through out the Middle East are of the Moslem faith, he said, and an at tack on one country might be expected to bring the Turks and others to the defense of that country. lin the Looking Glass Yumpin yiminy—it's vacation time and I just don't know how I'll get unused to getting up for 8 o'clocks and dashing around to make that 1 o'clock curfew (wouldn't wish them on an import!) But all is lost with thoughts of making up missed classes—Monday subs for Thursday, Tuesday be comes Friday—almost as con fusing as trying to find Wea ver the first day of classes! But education is wealth and we're all buying on the mar gin. And of course, we're buy ing our take-home and thank you gifts at ETHEL'S. We make it crystal clear when we say you can get a choice of drinking glasses at ETHEL'S. So many types to suit the occasion and atmo sphere highball glasses in black and gold modern de sign, numbered ones for the gung-ho golfer, poetry patter for the intellect, and irrides cent colors for the average American citizen (been read ing Sinclair Lewis). Brandy, cocktail, and cordial glasses come in as many types as your list of dates. (you cavaliers you). Designed for drying and so pert and alive with color, these towels look as though they could stand up and dry dishes by themselves. Real gay prints of horse drawn beer steins, pink ele phants and bubbling cham pagne to name a few. All based on single motif—do not stand up while room is in motion! And a table needs a wardrobe, t 00... A table without a cloth is like the UN without the U.S., just isn't rich (looking) and coverings should be as color ful as opening night at the Met. Plaids, checks, prints— reminiscent of old Heidelberg and solid, luscious shades for convervatism. Great ensem bles—placemats and napkins in contrasting shades and myriads of materials.
