Latest Ballots Assure Victory For Democrats
Roosevelt Takes 82-Vote Lead Over Republicans In Campus Poll
Communist* Stuff Boxes
Editor Lionel Van Deerlin Requests Cooperation In U.S.C. Survey
Because Franklin D. Roosevelt, during three days of U. S. C. presidential voting, has accumulated a steady margin of ballots for each separate day Trojan students today see a certain victory on the campus for the Democratic candidate.
Yesterday, the president was accredited with a 103-88 majority over Alf Landon, Republican standard bearer, to bring the total count to a 394-312 lead, and It was apparent to Republican partisans that the Kansas governor would need a deluge of ballots during the last two days to win the contest. Voting will be continued only until Friday.
Although 47 ballots for Earl Browder, communist contestant, were placed in the boxes yesterday, Jack Qolay, poll supervisor, an-

Condemnation of Property Poshed
University Opens Suits To Continue Expansion of Trojan Campus
Trial of the first of eight condemnation suits has been instituted by the university to forward the expansion and beautficatlon program of the school.
The law firm of Hill. Morgan, and Bledsoe, legal representatives of the university, is basing its case on the right of eminent domain granted educational institutions by the state code of political procedure.
The property In question fronts University avenue between 36th street and 36th place and on 36th place between University avenue and Hoover street. Condemnation suits were dropped on three sites when they were bought outright by the school.
These suits are part pf the university’s plan to acquire all of the property between 34th street on the north and Exposition boulevard on the south, between Hoover boulevard on the east and old Hoover street on the west.
Similar court proceedings have resulted in important property condemnations in past years.
One of the most disputed cases concerned demolition of houses on the corner of Doheney Memorial library lot. This was the test case for all university condemnations.
Football Squad Works Out At El Paso, Enjoys Party
By Phil Daniel
ABOARD TROJAN SPECIAL, VAN HORN, Tex., Oct. 7.— (Exclusive)—They’re having a banquet on the train tonight, following this afternoon’s workout at El Paso, and rooters who have made the trip east every year say the team’s spirits have never been higher.
Southern Pacific has really fixed the boys up for this party, having supplied decorations, balloons, and everything else needed for a perfect blowout. It reminds me of the mardi gras we had last year, except that the Town and Gown Foyer *is a bit more spacious.

Foreign Students Tendered Honors
Several hundred students representing many foreign countries were extended a warm welcome by Dr. Rufus B. von KleinSmid, president of the university, and Mrs. von KleinSmid; Dean of Women Mary Sinclair Crawford; Counselor of Men Francis M. Bacon; Dean Pearl Aiken-Smith, and members of the ASUSC last night in the social hall of the Student Union at the annual informal reception of the International Relations committee.
Refreshments consisting of punch and cookies were served by Mrs. Carroll Spier, Mrs. Oscar Smith, and Mrs. Lewis Kistler, members of the Interfratemity Mothers' club, to students from Honduras, Panama, Germany, India, and other distant lands.
leaves nothing to be desired—and I hardly blame him after watching the workout today. The headman sent both first strings through signal drill and light dummy scrimmage in weather that was very cold during our short stopover. They had to wear hooded Jerseys.
Greeting the squad as it disembarked at El Paso was none other than our old friend and elections commissioner of last year—Tex Kahn. He looked about the same as ever, which isn’t really surprising. Says he’s working, which I have reason to doubt.
Boy, can this team eat. The boys look like a gang of horses diving into the nosebag every time the bell rings in the dining car.
The next most noticeable feature of the trip was the wild pajama display last night. Most of them were pretty good, but I thing Ray George gets the palm for the outstanding creation.

Russia Issues Note Warning Of Pact Bolt

Loyalist Forces Favored
Fascist Governments Are Charged With Aiding Spanish Rebels
Copyri&bt, 19)6, by United Press
MOSCOW, Oct. 7.—(UP)— The Soviet government, through its embassy in London, today notified other powers that it will abrogate the pact for non-intervention in the Spanish revolution and act as Russia sees fit unless violations by Portugal, Germany, and Italy are halted immediately.
Russian sympathies are strong for the Madrid Socialist-Communist government. The note was interpreted as a direct warning that Russia will aid Spanish loyalists unless aid allegedly given the Spanish rebels by Fascist nations is stopped.
Tlie note will be presented to a plenary session of the international committee for non-intervention ln Spain, which meets Friday.
Russia Is Fearful In presenting the note, the Soviet representative ln London added: “The Soviet government fears the situation created by repeated violations of the non-intervention agreement practically non-existent. Tlie Soviet government can by no means change the agreements for non-interference into a screen which masks military assistance for the insurgents by some participants to the agreements, against the Spanish government.
Definite Evidence “In view of this, the Soviet government is obliged to declare that If measures for halting violations are not taken immediately, it considers itself free from obligations of the agreement."
Simultaneously ln Edinburg, Scotland. the national council of the British Labor party decided that It had definite evidence of foreign interference ln the Spanish civil war.
