“Civilization is doomed when j there is no place for younger J people,” stated Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt in a speech on “The Problems , of Youth” at the Shrine auditorium last night.
“The three things most wanted by | j the younger generation are: prep- ■ aration for earning their living; the satisfaction and fun in living; and ; the security and happiness of mar- :
! riage.” Mrs. Roosevelt added. “Our j children can’t follow us in a chang- , ing world. The changes in the j world about us necessitates a change , in bringing up our children.”

Rebels Shell Barcelona
Non-Combalanls Viclims of Quick Series of Bombings
BARCELONA. Friday, March 18 (l'.P)—Twenty-four hours of pitiless air raids by Generalissimo Francisco Franco's bombing planes, with Italian and German pilots allegedly at their controls, left Barcelona today a city of horror and ruin with somewhere between 400 and 1000 dead.
The Loyalist cabinet, meeting in emergency session last night, was reported unofficially to have ordered reprisals by means of air raids on insurgent-held cities.
As Franco’s black tipped bombers from off the Balearic islands roared upon the city at 10:25 last night on their thirteenth raid since Wednesday night the government announced that 400 bodies of men, women and children had been recovered.
To the horror of Franco's roaring bombers, the screams of dying entrapped in the ruins and flames arising from a large section of the city was added to the sufferings of between 2,000 and 3.000 persons wounded and injured in the rain of death from the skies.

Atkinson, Hall In Hot Debate
Enmity between two rival presidential political camps flared up yesterday in the student senate meeting as Maurice Atkinson, campaign manager for Bob McKnight. and Fred Hall, interfratemity council president, exchanged fiery tirades over the question of senate regulation of campaign propaganda.
Because Hall attempted to introduce a measure that restricted election literature and propaganda to post-cards and notices in campus publications, Atkinson challenged Hall’s “impartial point of view” and charged that Henry Flynn’s cohorts are “afraid to bring tha campaign issues out into the open.”
Although the senate later passed the legislative act by a vote of seven to four. Atkinson emphatically stated: “This will not deter us from doing what w'e intended to do.” He refused to recognize Hall’s contention that a curb on printed matter would reduce unfair practices and “mud slinging” in elections.
