Helsel to Talk on Fellowship at Forum
Philosopher Surveys Hebrew-Christian Attitudes Tuesday
While men in three continents are pursuing fellowship with guns and war. Dr. Paul R. Helsel. professor of philosophy, will deliver a lecture on the search for fellowship by peaceful and divine means Tuesday at 4:15 p.m. in Bowne hall.
In his address titled, ‘’The Hebrew-Christian Search for Divine Fellowship,” Dr. Helsel will expound on the background and history of the seach for fellowship by people of the two faiths.
He will treat the subject under three headings: the structural background of fellowship, the Heb-red genius for fellowship, and the Christian apotheosis of fellowship.
In the first division of his lecture he will give the background of fellowship based on a network of human relationships.
The Hebrew concept of fellowship, the second division of his lecture, is deeply rooted in the earth. This is due. Dr. Helsel says, to the primitive pattern of Hebrew society, its close contract and its reliance on the soil.
In the third and last part of his address, the (philosopher will speak on the Christian apotheosis of fellowship. This is the result of two factors: the origin of Christianity from a Hebrew' background, its capitalization on the Hebrew traditions. and the contributions of Christianity itself.

The United States action followed swiftly a pledge of aid to the new government by British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and Vichy reports that Russia had made formal notification she would be forced to reexamine her relations with Germany if Nazi troops violate Jugoslavia’s frontiers.

Wesleyans Swim Tonight
Taking advantage of the spring weather, members of the Wesley club will sponsor a swim fest at the Redondo plunge at 7:30 p.m. today. Students will meet at the University Methodist church for transportation.
The swimming party will be followed by refreshments at Tony Randle's house in Hermosa Beach.
Dwight Hart, monies, introduced five prominent Trojan students who voiced their approval of Barton and urged his supporters to vote for him at the polls today.
HALFERTY’S ‘CHECK*
While Guy Halferty’s famous campaign check lay tom in pieces upon the floor of Bovard. Donna Lewis, ASSC vice-president, dramatically opened the Syd Barton rally.
“When you choose a student body president you sort of want one who would go out and represent you at breakfasts at 7 a.m., at luncheons, and dinners . . . one who would represent you and ‘ your university. I think Syd Barton speaks for himself, and I’d like to see you get out and vote for him for ASSC president tomorrow.”
During the evening Hart read a list of fraternities who had sent telegrams and letters informing Barton of their 100 per cent support.
BARTON’S BACKERS
Tom Eddy, president of the Trojan Knights, also advocated student support for Barton.
Syd Barton himself made a brief appearance before the “mike” to welcome his guests and urge their support.
“I’m happy to see you all here. I think it was a pretty good show, and if I enjoyed it it must be good . . . with me in my condition!
“We’ve had a good week. It was fun and we all worked hard. So tomorrow you can show your appreciation by voting for me. I hope you all have a good time. Goodnight.”
All students enrolled in the university are entitled to indicate their choices for the ASSC offices of president, vice-president, secretary, and yell leader. Junior college students and graduates may vote only for these officers.
Voting for college offices will be restricted to students enrolled in those colleges, and only members of each class may cast ballots for class officers.
ASSC CARDS NEEDED
To receive a ballot each student must present his SC identification card at the polls, where number 7 will be punched by election officials. This precaution is taken V> avoid duplication of votes.
Trojans will use Australian ballots to indicate their choice* for the various political offices. An earlier move to use voting machines was blocked by university officials in view of the added expense and confusion which would be caused by use of the cumbersome machines.
The area surrounding each polling station will be marked off by ropes for a distance of 10 feet on all sides, and no person except voters and election officials will be admitted into this area. Shapiro asserts that absolutely no electioneering will be permitted within a radius of 50 feet of the polling area.
COMMISSIONERS STATIONED
Polls will open promptly at 9 a. m. and closed at 3 p.m. No ballota may be cast after the 3 p.m. deadline, according to Shapiro.
Immediately following the closing of the eight polling stations on campus. Shapiro will inspect all poll boxes and cover the slots with tape to prevent tampering. After sealing the boxes signatures will be placed across the tape to insure honesty.
Ballots will be taken out and counted in the general manager’s office by members of the election committee, the student senate, and officials appointed by Shapiro.
Shapiro has appointed 41 deputy elections commissioners to be stationed at the polls. They will insure honest voting, answer student questions ,and have charge of ballots. Two senate members will b« at each station.

Two-hundred SC girls will meet tomorrow for breakfast at the Pig ’n’ Whistle restaurant at 7th and Broadway, to make plans for the day’s work of selling t^s and receiving donations on the downtown streets for the Greek War Relief fund.
The representatives from SC include four girls from each sorority. Mimi Peterson, aided by Jackie Williams, Marilyn Skansen, and Lynn Norby, will be in charge of the day's activities.
