announce in commons the decisions Britain has reached. It is predicted that he m-ill say Britain must avoid commitments in central Europe, with particular reference to Czechoslovakia, the current “pom-der barrel.”
BRITISH PLEDGED TO AID
The first article of British foreign policy is her pledge to come to France’s aid should the French frontiers be violated. France —with Russia—still is bound to aid Czechoslovakia if that country is invaded by Germany or any other nation.
This was only one phase of the international headache studied today by the cabinet’s foreign experts composing the subcommittee on foreign affairs. Hitler's Austrian coup coupled with Generalissimo Francisco Franco's drive toward the Mediterranean has made the long present Spanish war problem more dangerous than ever to the peace of all Europe.
LEAGUE IS ISSUE
Another issue m'hich must be settled sooner or later was that of the league of nations, of which Austria as an independent nation was a prominent member.
Cabinet conferences today and tomorrow were expected to evolve Britain's policy on all these momentous questions, to be promulgated by Chamberlain's formal general pronouncement.
CONCESSIONS URGED
It was understood that Britain and France were urging Czechoslovakia to give her German minority additional concessions and thus avert any necessity for Germany to exercise further her “protective interest" in Germans abroad. .
Anglo-Italian talks were proceeding in Rome. The prime minister told commons “good progress was being made” but that no agreement had been reached.
Town, Gown Foyer Chosen As Prom Site
The place: The Town and Gom-n
foyer.
The orchestra: Gus Arnheim's.
The date: April 1.
With the release of these answers to questions about the Junior Prom, Bob McKnight, junior class president, completely “let the cat out of the bag” concerning the annual dance.
The Town and Gown foyer was chosen by the junior council because of the ease with m-hich it will accomodate the expected 400 couples, and because of its location on the campus.
Under the direction of Bill Quinn the foyer will be transformed into a colonial scene to carry out the Prom theme, “Colonial Easter.”
Arnheim’s appearance at the Prom will mark his return from the East, where he played at the Edgewater Beach hotel in Chicago and won a popularity contest sponsored by a Chicago radio station. He is noted for his sv -:t-swing style of music.
Bids for the dance will be placed on sale Thursday, and will cost $2.50 each, announces Tom Dmrig-gins, chairman of the bid committee.

While in Japan the student delegates selected from the United States will be guests of Japanese students and will study oriental culture, economics, and politics.
While the actual conference will last only one week, the students will spend the remainder of the time in the Orient traveling throughout the island and will study conditions there. The conference will consist of a series of round table discussions.
