Election Day Calls Campus To Registration
Student registration for voting at the May 16-17 elections on campus will get under way tomorrow morning for a week-long period. Four registration tables will be set up; two in front of Bovard auditorium, one in the lobby of the Student Union, and the other on ithe first floor of the Engineering building.
In addition to the four tables to be set up on this campus, a fifth registration area will be handled by an elections committee member who will maintain a table at the SC dantal clinic tomorrow.
To insure as representative a group of election workers as possible, Commissioner Kotler has asked Amazons and the YWCA to furnish his committee with a num-.	remains most nearly constant af- j ber of nonaffiliated women to work

CRITICItm
In an attempt to reap constructive criticism before elections, and stem the flow of dissatisfaction after the event, Kotler is calling for suggestions from the student body on how to best handle political matters this term.
Suggestions may be brought to 233 Student Union every day from 1:30 to 3 p.m., at which time Kotler will be there to discuss them.
SIX BOOTHS The committee revealed yesterday that it has on hand six polling booths and has requisitioned an additional 14 to take care of the present enlarged student body on election day. These will be placed on the main walk from University avenue to Bovard auditorium from 8:30 in .the morning until approximately 3:30 in the afternoon on May 16 and 17.

More thap 50 students, mostly veterans, were interviewed during the last three days by Blue Key , counselors, according to Jim Colachis, counseling chairman.
“The response has been gratifying," Colachis said. “People seem to forget how many problems confront the average student on the college campus, particularly the veteran.”
Men interested in any campus organization or activity may secure information and advice from Blue Key counselors daily from 10 a.m. to 3:15 p.m. in 402 Student Union.
Housing, book shortages, and course changes are three common problems confronting students who have turned to Blue Key for guidance during the first week of the counseling program.
Chairman Colachis, stressing the fact that all counseling offered is of an advisory nature only, pointed out that the Blue Key service is a quick way for students to find answers to their questions.
Consultants will be available in the Blue Key office for the next two weeks as follows:
Monday, 10 a.m., Harlow; 11, Maxwell; 1:15 p.m., West; 2:15, Somers; Tuesday, 10 a.m McFarlane and Newton; 11, Nelson; 1:15 p.m., Hodges; 2:15, Sprinkle.

Marcuse
Discovers
Germany
“Distance lends perspective. I discovered Germany after I left it in 1933—as I saw it from Paris, London, Moscow, and Los Angeles,” said Ludwig Marcuse, Ph. D., visiting associate professor of German, who will discuss “Affection and Bitterness of a German,” Thursday. May 2, 3:15 p.m. in the art and lecture room of the University library, as the second in a series of lectures sponsored by the College of Letters, Arts, and Sciences.
“At first I discovered only the Germany seen through embittered eyes. It has always been the fate of exiles, from Ovid and Dante to Heine and Thomas Mann, to feel spite toward the country causing their exile.
“Malice was directed, in the beginning, toward ,the Nazis alone. It was soon apparent that great German writers, scholars, and artists were carried afay by the wave of National Socialism, and^ subsequently bitterness embraced all of Germany. I made wild anti-German accusations and called for revenge. GERMAN PEACE PATRON

AUTHOR’S WORKS
An essayist, professor Marcuse has had published a two volume work on “World Literature of our Time,” and “The World of Tragedy” essays concerning the most famous authors of tragedies.
Unpublished works in manuscript form for future books are first, “Richard Wagner and the German People.” in which the thesis maintains that Wagner, althougha mul sical genius, is the most famous predecessor of the Nazis; second, “The Myth of Security’’—an analysis of the meaning of political, philosophical, and religious security; third, the “History of the Idea of Happiness;” and fourth. “Two Continents”—written in collaboration with Dr. von Hofe, professor of German and acting chairman of the current LAS lecture series—an anthology concerning the impressions of famous Americans who have traveled in Europe, and of famous Europeans who have travel-

TUTORS FURNISHED
Because of linguistic difficulties which are still experienced by students who have had no other acquaintance writh the foreign - language than two or three years of classroom instruction, and due also to the differences between the American and European educational systems and length of semesters, the major part of the courses are given by Swiss professors.
The general work is presented by the professors in two wreekly lectures, while the reading assignments and homework are discussed in small groups with designated tutors.

NEED APPARENT
According to Mrs. Grant, the need for a new Y building has been apparent for a good number of years. She cited the membership figures which show that more than 1000 women are members of the Y each year. About a year ago the faculty committee on women's activities and and the dean of women publicly expressed their appreciation of the work being caried on by the Y.
“It was then,” said Mrs. Grant, that the advisory board really went to work on the building fund.” The advisory board, composed of 50 women interested in the activities of the Y, was divided into five teams, each under a captain, and they were pledged to raise $5000 each. Mrs. Grant stated that all five teams have reached their pledge and expressed satisfaction that the new building will be constructed without leaving a debt.
“The money was raised mainly by the pledge method,” said Mrs. Grant, “‘with individual pledges ranging from $5000 to $1.”
HISTORY REVIEWED
Mrs. Grant also reviewed the history of the YWCA as concerned with the SC campus. In 1915 the Y was first organized and it continued to develop each succeeding year, even though the charter of recognition was not granted until 1929. A staff secretary has been employed since 1918, said Mrs. Grant. The first Y office was situated in Old College, but it was later moved to the music annex. Later the office was moved to a building between Hancock hall and Von KleinSmid hall which has since been razed, and still later it was moved to the (Continued on Page 3)
