Sorauf Sees Stevenson's End,
Kefauver's Survival in Politics
Dr. Frank Sorauf, assistant
professor of political science,
said yesterday that Adlai E.
Stevenson is now politically
"pretty dead" but that Ke
fauver will probably try for
the presidential nomination in
1960.
Dr. Sorauf believes that Ke
fauver still "has the bug." and
since he campaigned in Florida
on the last day of the campaign,
many people believe that this was
a punch for 1960 instead of 1956.
"Kefauver is propelled by ra
ther considerable ambition and
has enough support in the .Middlel
West to keep him before the pub
lic," he said. "He can please al
number of people with his hand
shaking and 'bless you's'."
Stevenson Lacks Leadership
Dr. Sorauf said that Stevenson.
is still technically considered the i
leader of the Democratic party
but is in no position to exercise
leadership.
His position now is similar to
that after the 1952 election, he,
said, but this year after his second
defeat Stevenson carries even less
influence.
Dr. Sorauf termed Gov. G. Men
nen "Soapy . ' Williams of Michi
gan as a "real threat" for the:
Dartmouth Poet Presents
2 Rare Books to Library
Dr. Richard Eberhart. poet in residence at Dartmouth,
has presented the rare book room of the Pattee Library
with two books, both collectors' items.
One, "A Bravery of Ear
published in London' in 1930.
The second book. "An Herb
Basket," is an example of "beau
tiful printing, - an old-fashioned
printing.
Personally Inscribed
Both books are personally in
scribed by the poet, who gave
the first talk at the Liberal Arts
Lecture Series on October 25.
"An Herb Basket" is inscribed
with "To the Pattee Library at
the Pennsylvania State Univer
sity on the occasion of the first
Liberal Arts Lecture (a reading)
of the year."
The book originally belonged
to his wife, and her name is writ

of the page.

Democratic presidential nomina
tion in 1960.
"lie has won five straight terms
as governor, and although the
state has gone Republican in two
presidential elections, Williams
has been elected," he said.
New Group Rises
At the moment, the younger
group in the party will exercise
more control and authority, Dr.
Sorauf believes. This includes, he
said, Sen. John H. Kennedy of
Massachusetts, Sen. Albert Gore
of Tennessee. and Sen. Hubert
Humphrey of Minnesota.
Gov. Frank Clement of Ten
nessee, Dr. Sorauf said, is not a
real possibility. However, he con
tinued, the Democratic leadership
possibilities depend upon the par
ty s decision on appeasing the
South again.. If many in the party
think the South should be
"wooed," then Clement or some
other border state Democrat is a
real possibiiity, he said.
Dr. Sorauf believes that Gov.
Averill Harriman of New York
is also "politically dead." It
would have made no difference
whom the Democrats ran in 1956
—he couldn't have beaten Eisen
hower, he said.
"Another candidate might have
come closer," he continued. "If
less emphasis had been placed on
the draft and nuclear weapons
h," is his first book. It was
out of print, are now collector's
items.
The books may be seen, along
with a collection of Dr. Eberhart's
writings, in the display cases on
the second floor of the Pattee
Library.
Will Be In Library
After the display is finished,
they will be placed in the rare
book room of the library.
Moses Hadas, professor of
Greek at Columbia University, is

testing and more on the rising
cost of living, the gap might have
been narrowed."
Although Dr. Sorauf didn't pre
dict the vote of the border states,
he said that he hadn't expected
quite the amount of Repubican
strength shown.
The Republican party still can't
elect people to state and local of
fice in most parts of the South,"
he said. "Here it is a long way
from the two-party system.'
Dr. Sorauf believes that the
outcome of the congressional and
senatorial election represents a
stunning victory for the Demo
crats, particularly with the over
whelming Eisenhower victory.
Democratic Power
While the Democrats lost the
presidency to an extremely popu
lar personality, he said, it indi
cates that the Democratic party
has a great deal of strength in
the country.
Calling the Democrats the "ma
jority party," Dr. Sorauf said the
only way the GOP's can win is to
oppose the Democrats with a par
ticularly appealing personality or
issue.
"More voters seem to identify
themselves permanently with the
Democratic party than with the
Republican," he said. "Unless the
'Republicans have a strong candi
date, the majority of American
people turn to the Democrats."
