Snowed-- (Continued from page four) Lyndon Johnson, senator from. Texas. Although Stevenson has not ac-' tively sought the nomination, he is still popular in many areas of the country. However, many Democrats led by former presi dent Harry Truman vigorously oppose the former Illinois Gover nor's nomination because they be lieve that voters associate him with defeat. Until last Monday Stevenson ap peared to have little chance of obtaining the nomination. But, recent international developments may have started the tide that will lead to Stevenson's nomina tion at the upcoming Democratic Convention. Stevenson is well versed in International politics and has made several world tours since the last election including one to Russia. Senator Stuart Symington, a', middle-of-the-roader, has been a , sharp critic of Eisenhower's de-: fense organisation but has avoid-i ed taking a firm stand on many! other key issues. Truman just formally endorsed the Missouri senator as his choice for the White House job. The announcement, coming as it did just three days after Kennedy's sweep of West Virginia, can be interpreted as more of a "Stop Kennedy" at tempt than as to "Elect Syming ton" drive. Symington has -secured little' backing and his chances of get-: ting either the first or second spot on the Democratic ticket ap pear to be slim: Lyndon Johnson, the most powerful man in Congress, will be Kennedy's chief opponent on the first ballot. He is strongly supported in the south and has a fair following in the north. However, we doubt that he will be able to muster enough support to secure the presidential nomin ation. As matters stand now" Kennedy appears to have suffici#nt strength to secure the nomination. In terms of vote-getting potential, Johnson is the best running mate for Ken nedy. lie can insure a strong Democratic vote in the south and thiS is a necessi y if the Demo crats hope to wi the November contest.

Most students attending the Univer sity of Moscow and other col leges throughout the country are paid by the government to do so. f a series nt life and in various bed by in s.) students The University of Moscow itself consists of only one build ing, covering an extensive area of the city.

These dormi tory areas are co-educational, he said. The students live in blocks alongside of each other. A block contains 2 rooms. Each room within the block, how ever, must contain members of the same sex. Faruzi said that the Univer sity of Moscow has a strictly academic curriculum. It does not offer programs in engineer ing, medicine or mechanics. Courses of Communistic doc trine are compulsory for all students enrolled in the uni versity with the exception of foreigners, Faruzi said. An ex amination is given at the con- alternate Assemblyman and Alan Elms, Froth editor, charged LP with exercising its influence par ticularly in the election of Leon ard Julius. former SGA president. Brandt hinted that Julius had been contacted by LP and asked to run. Julius, now an LP member. told the committee that prior to his eleCtion he had considered running for president of the In terfraternity Council. "One night, however, I had a talk with Robert Franklin, former editor of the Daily Collegian, and Theodore Haller ,senior class pres ident. It was Franklin who sug gested that I run for SGA presi dent and not any member of LP," Julius said. "If my election was fixed, by Pearson or anyone else, a pretty poor job was done. There were 200 votes separating me from my opponent," he said. Brandt and company also ac cused LP of influencing the ap pointment of Robert Umstead as Elections Committee chair man. Umstead retaliated with "/ nev er expressed any desire to join LP. I became Elections Commis sion co-chairman along with Sher ry Hoffman when Stan Foster re signed because of ill-health.

In the Russian system, all exams are oral, Faruzi said. A student must appear before a board of examiners which usually consists of three facul ty members. He also said that there is no fixed examination period in the Russian academic year. Exams may extend over a broad stretch of time, for ex ample, from May 15 to June 30. Under this method, the stu dent makes an appointment with the board of examiners and is tested at his own con venience. Faruzi observed that publi cations from the Western world are not available at university book stores in Moscow. John Vinney, a fourth semes ter student in petroleum engi neering, from Caracas, Vene zuela, said that students in his country receive a much better college preparation than Amer ican students. In Venezuela, a student is re quired to take humanity cours es regardless of his curt iculum. In other aspects, Vinney de scribed the two programs of t,turly as being "very similar." 1 Theplay is being directed by )Jeffrey Pollack, junior in jour- LP Accusations,nalism- from Laurelton, N.Y.
