The Greater University Committee, in conjunction
Representation' Party
with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, is conducting a series of programs this week to inform USC students of some of the problems confronting the quest for world peace.
The theme of the week is "Progress Through Peace.”
"The purpose of the week,” says the program's chairman. Bob Sangster. "is to challenge the students to ponder the larger, less immediate issues in order to gain a broad perspective on peace.”
Newspaper Articles A series of articles in the Daily Trojan and a special film will highlight the week.
The articles will be written by such authorities as Dr. Ross N. Berkes. head of the School ; of International Relations, and Dr. Carl Q. Christol, head of | the political science department.
The program is an outgrowth of the 50th year program of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and is dedicated to "an exploration of the problems involved in progressing towards a peace worthy of man’s I aspirations.”

Expressing his enthusiasm for the Representation Party, Dr. Caldwell continued. ‘The party is broad enough to interest people in all facets of student government. The Representation Party deals with students because they are students and not because of their Greek affiliations.”
