SHEBOYGAN, Wis. (M) Richard M.
Nixon called repeatedly on Wisconsin voters
yesterday to vote Republican in next week's
Republican primary if they are dissatisfied
with the Johnson administration.
"Let Wisconsin on April 2 say to the
nation that if we want a change, the choice
is of voting for the Republican candidate,"
Nixon said.
Victory Assured
The former vice president, whose path
to a primary victory is virtually uncontested,
sounded the call amid warnings by his aides
that a heavy Republican crossover vote is
possible into the Democratic primary where
Johnson is matched with Sen. Eugene J.
McCarthy.
Nixon raised the issue as his last day of
scheduled campaigning for Wisconsin's 30
Republican convention votes carried him
from Oshkosh to Milwaukee.
But he kept an eye on the big picture
Clark Cites
His Status
UNIONTOWN, Pa. (AP)
Sen. Joseph S. Clark wound
up a two-day campaign swing
yesterday in which he argued
that his status in the Senate
is the best reason to return
him to Washington.
He also zeroed in on Re
publican hopeful Richard M.
Nixon.
At a news conference prior
to a speech to local officials
in Uniontown, the Democratic
senator was asked if Johnson
could win an election con
ducted in the midst of the
Vietnam wa-.
"I couldn't picture anyone
voting for Nixon," said Clark.
Clark has been a frequent
critic of President Johnson's
Vietnam .)olicies. The senator
is being opposed for the nomi
nation by Rep. John H. Dent
of Jeanette, who says he sup
ports Johnson "down the
line."
Clark said in Uniontown
he's confident he'll survive
the Dent challenge.
"I haven't seen anything
yet to convince me that my
earlier prediction that I would
defeat Dent 2 to 1 was
wrong," said Clark.
In his luncheon speech to
Fayette Count y officials,
Clark returned to the seniority
theme he had stressed the
previous day in New Kensing
ton.
Clark noted in Uniontown
that he is a member of the
Senate Subcommittee on Em
ployment, Man power and
Poverty and helped draft
much of the nation's anti
poverty legislation.

as well, with release of a major address
taped for national television showing Sun
day. On that day, he will return to Milwau
kee with his family for a pre-primary party.
Nixon noted that Wisconsin is "the one
state in the Union where you can go into
that polling booth and vote for the man
without being restricted whatever."
Under state law, there is no party regis
tration at the polls and each voter may use
the ballot of his choice.
But, Nixon said, "America will not turn
to a party that's divided."
McCarthy, he said, is "a sincere and
dedicated man who is presenting his case
as he sees it." And Kennedy, Nixon added,
also is presenting his case as he sees it but
both candidates offer voters only a divided
party.
"We need a united United States," said
Nixon, "and they can't provide it."
Students Go to Europe
Outside it was just an ordinary Penn State March
day—rainy, blustering and cold. But inside the Hetzel
Union Building lounge a gathering of excited University
students filled the air with talk of the sunshine of Rome,
Salamanca in the spring, and the beauties of Strasbourg on
the Rhine.
The more than 130 participants in this year's Study
Abroad Program departed last Tuesday (March 26) for
universities in England, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain,
France and
,Germany. At the end of the winter term the
group was given a farewell tea, where excitement reigned
high.
"I'm thrilled, but also nervous," one girl traveling to
Salamanca, Spain, confessed. She added that the proximity
of her first trip to Europe made it difficult to study - for
finals. Other students, obviously believers in advance
planning, were talkina b about traveling to Europe after
their clasases end in July, or about the trip home aboard
an ocean liner some will be taking.
Paul M. Althouse, vice-president for resident instruc
tion told the students he wanted them to be "ambassadors
for Penn State" in the foreign countries. "Think of what
you can take there and what you can bring back as an
educational experience," Althouse said. "Remember you
have to put something into your experience to get some
thing out."
The deadline for applications for the 1969 SAP has
been extended to April 15, 1968. They should be returned
to the Study Abroad Office in 212 Engineering "C".

Kennedy's throat.
But the voice was still faint and hoarse as he
spoke along the motorcade and at the City Audi
torium, there police said some 10,000 Kennedy fans
packed an auditorium designed to seat 6,000.
Boisterous Welcome
Their welcome was boisterous as he told them
the 1968 election "will mean nothing if it ends
with the country as divided as when it began."
The message was the same he has delivered
in about 10 states since he began his campaign:
"We can have a better country, a more decent coon
try, a country where men are not separated and
alienated from the concerns of their fellows. That
is why I run for President. And I ask for your help.
With it, we shall win in August, win in November
and we will turn this country around."

they became interested in building a personal
library, their ideals for a complete home library,
and the ten books they hope to add to their
library. Collections may be a general personal
library, a collection centered in a subject or a
collection of a single author or group of authors.
Three faculty members will judge the libraries
on a basis of intelligent interests; knowledge of
books collected as revealed in the annotations and
commentary; scope and imagination shown in
creating the collection, and their value as a
nucleus for a permanent personal library. Rarity
