PAGE SIX WUS Exec Talks About Nuclear War By DOTI DRASHER Nuclear war is not inevitable but it is possible, Gerhard El ston, regional executive of the World University Service, said Sunday. In a special interview, Elston! said that if nuclear war broke out, it would “in all probability be both suicidal and homicidal." The tendency to self destruction is part of war, he said. But a future war could also be limited as has happened in Korea and I.aos, he added. "Morally, I don't approve pf either nuclear or limited wars but I am not a pacifist," Elston said. He said he felt war is evil but that in some cases it may be the lesser of two evils.

The opinions of three pro fessors in the College of Min eral Industries indicate that, regardless of other aspects of the four term system, 75-minute classes do not constitute a major difficulty.

Pacifism, as he defined it, is the repudiation of participation in war or physical violence as a solution to a problem. When asked about the bomb shelter program which has re* j cenlly gained momentum in this I country, Elston said that the i building of individual shelters is futile and unnecessarily costly. Building bomb shelters should be a community effort in order to be slocked with essential pro visions end financed sensibly, he said. Elston explained that a com munity has a better chance than isolated individuals to survive in bomb shelters in the event of a nuclear war.

Symphony Members Use Gym Facilities By ROCHELLE MICHAELS Contrary to popular belief, musicians do not spend all their time “warming up” their fingers—when given the op portunity, they seem to en joy limbering up their muscles, too. Sunday night the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra gave an Ar tists’ Series concert in Recreation Hall—a building suited more lo a gymnasium than a concert hall. To accommodate the orches tra and audience, all the gym nastic equipment was pushed "backstage” to the wings of the main floor. This was the same area used by the members of the orchestra as a rest area to spend the intermission. However, some of the older men showed that they had enough stamina to do without their “rest.”( In fact, they took full advan-i tage of the flying rings, horizontal JAM SESSION HILLEL FOUNDATION 9-12 P.M.

An other musician was heard grunt ing a few times as he chinned himself on the horizontal bar. And still another performer looked as happy as a child in his playroom as ho tried elemen tary stunts on the mats. But while the musicians were “playing,” Peter Herman Adler, the orchestra’s conductor, was more serious in commenting on the University Artists’ Series, Adler said he thought the Uni versity was “one of the most pro gressive schools in the field of music” because of it 3 “fine” cul tural program. “We are less lucky in Balti more," he said, “because even & ! good school like Johns Hopkins i offers its students nothing in the way of music education.” @Mspice
