A couple in Washington, D.C., has formed a club to pro
mote Dr. Milton S. Eisenhower, president of the University,
for the presidential candidacy in 1958.
The vice president of the Greater Philadelphia Chamber

ments in the series of events in
which Dr. Eisenhower has been
suggested for the 1956 presiden
tial race.
• However, Dr. Eisenhower has
not indicated his sentiments on
the question one way or the other.
He was still in Denver yesterday
visiting his brother in Fitzsimons
Hospital. He is expected to return
to the University today.
On this, his second trip to Den
ver, Dr. Eisenhower was accom
panied by Secretary of Defense
Charles E. Wilson and Admiral

The United States has in tile
past held itself aloof from diplo
matic involvement with the Pei
ping regime, which it does not
recognize. This country agreed
reluctantly to the Geneva talks in
the hope of freeing 41 Americans
detained inside China.
Red China, slow in following
through on a Sept. 10 agreement
to free the Americans, has been
pressing for talks on the other
half of the agenda—"other prac
tical matters." These include such
differences as free world curbs on
trade with Red China and Pei
ping's claims to the United Na
tions seat occupied by Nationalist
China.
The United States heretofore
has held back on discussing these
questions at Geneva, demanding

Dulles' disclosures represented
somewhat of a departure from this
policy, possibly signaling U.S.
satisfaction that Red China will
fulfill its promise.
New, too, is word that the
Chinese Communists have formal

trial balloons have been floated
by Peiping propaganda and neu
tralists like India.
Dulles made it clear at a news
conefrence that he opposes this
kind of a meeting until the U.S.
and Red Chinese special envoys
at Geneva have squeezed all they
can out of negotiations.
Dulles' news conference, ex
pected to be his last in Wash
ington before the Oct. 27 big.four
foreign ministers conference at
Geneva, touched also on Euro
pean and Middle East questions.

APhiO Votes to Oppose
Ugly Man for Pitt Week
Alpha Phi Omega, national service fraternity, voted
Monday night not to hold their annual Ugly Man Contest
prior to Pitt weekend.
The group voted instead to hold a contest of stick posters.
According to present plans, the entries would be paraded
around the track ,of Beaver Field immediately before the
Pitt game. Judging would take
place at that time.
Robert Stroup, member of the
University Student Centennial
Committee, presented his com
mittee's idea concerning having
the Ugly Man Costest at that
time. He also suggested that if
APhio was opposed to this plan
they could have a Pitt Man Con

Members of APhio said they
did not want to have the Ugly

Fourteen students, prepared to
stay all night in order to buy tick

were ousted from Recreation Hall
last night by two Campiis Patrol
officers.
The officers, acting under ord
ers from Ernest B. McCoy, dean
of the College of Physical Edu
cation and Athletics, removed the
students at 10:15 p.m.
When questioned, th e patrol
men declined to disclose their
names.
The students, complete with
books and blankets, were sitting
in the corridor adjacent to the
ticket office. Tickets will go on
sale at 8:15 a.m. today.
When asked why they were
waiting all night for tickets, the
students replied they wanted
tickets on the 50-yard line. Most
of the group felt the student al
lotment of tickets for the game
would be sold out early. "There
are only so many tickets avail
able," one student said, "and we
want good ones."
The ticket office announced yes
terday tickets would be limited
to four per student.

contests at this time of year that
require putting someone up from
the fraternity groups; fraternities
would not welcome the additional
work involved in the contest at
this time; the weather might be
harmful to the contest; it would
not improve the University in the
eyes of others to hold the contest
at this time; it would be difficult
to collect money as the Campus
Chest drive would have just been'
completed; and independents do
not have a very good chance to
participate in such a contest.
