Harry Pollok, meeting of April 19. came forth with the following dynamic statement:
“I do not see any rason why any society should be taken off campus.” This amazing allegation proves one thing, if nothing else, that for sheer apathy and inactivity, Pollok and his committee are probably more deserving of the axe than any of the much maligned 130.
I Pollok's report is not only an excellent example of the political chi-
ities, and to learn just what is to be expected of them when they reach the university.

Rep. Joseph W. Martin. Jr.. Massachusetts, chairman of the Republican congressional campaign committee, said the country is “fed up” with President Roosevelt’s spending and social reform policies and that the Republicans will gain a “minimum of 76 seats.” mostly in Pennsylvania. New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts. Michigan, and Ohio.
This was ridiculed promptly by Rep. Patrick Drewrv, Virginia, chairman of the Democratic congressional campaign committee, who. after checking his charts, said the Republicans could not win more than 25 seats.
