Freedom scrolls, signed by millions across the nation, will be flown to Berlin where they will be enshrined in the *>ase of the Freedom Bell on Oct. 24.
As part of the dedication ceremonies the bell will ring in the Western sector of Berlin for the first time on that day. It will continue to ring daily as a symbol of freedom.

RFE. a private enterprise, began broadcasting from Germany in July and is now transmitting six hours , a day, seven days a week with broadcasts in five languages. Its 1 mission is to augment the govern-ment-sponsored Voice of America broadcasts.
John McElderry, president of Tau Kappa Epsilon, said, “Radio Free Europe will be more effective than the Voice of America. A private group like this can do more than a governmental agency because it is not tied down by red tape. All people should have the will to go ahead and support it.”

“There are many men who were deferred during the last war who could be drafted now. The veterans could take their places in industry,” said Bob Benson, an education student who has a medical discharge from the Navy.
Marvin L. Silver, a physical education student who is single and a veteran with three years service, said:
“I do not believe that veterans should be drafted because the training they received five years ago has not deviated from that which is given now. Only in the event of a crisis should they be drafted.”
II between the ages of 19 and 25 be drafted? This question is of majoi* concern to veterans on campus.
Chairman Carl Vinson of the House Armed Services committee is at present conducting investigations which may help to determine whetther draft laws will be changed to permit the re-drafting of veterans. At the same time, the proposed changes are being pushed so that they may be presented to Congress when it reconvenes Nov. 11.
Several students on campus were asked for their opinions concerning this question. Engineering junior Ed Jagger, who served three and a half years in the last war, said:
“I am in favor of veterans being drafted only in the case of an acute emergency, because the veterans

“Activities and Plans of the SC Committee on Civil Defense’’ will be discussed by committee chairman, Robert'E, Vivian, dean of engineering, today at noon, 309 Bridge.
The occasion is the regular meeting of the Council on Atomic Implications, which is open to the general public.
Dean Vivian will outline a civilian defense program for protection of the campus population in case of earthquake, fire, or possible enemy action.
Separate Duties
He will describe the part that various student, faculty, and administrative organizations will play in case of emergency.
“The important thing for students ana faculty to remember is that these plans are being made for their protection and the committee asks for their cooperation and help, but there is no occasion to get excited about the matter,” he said.
Prevention of Panic
“Prevention of panic and hysteria is important in our planning, and we hope each one will help to do this as well as take part in the defense organization when called upon to do so,” he added.
“It is common sense to be ready for any disaster even though it may never happen.”
Dean Vivian particularly wants to emphasize that recent publicity given the program should not alarm those on campus, as the measures are but a part of broad emergency plans ultimately to be linked with those of the city and county.
15 days leave. Checks for $40, $56, ! be given and $64, depending upon the veterans dependency status, were the totals for those who requested leave.
Vetefans who did not request leave pay shouM receive checks for $2.50, $3.50, or $4.50. also depending upon dependency status. Hall said.
These figures are for full-time students only. Part-time students will receive checks for an equivalent fraction of the above amounts, he said.

“The gambling scandal in New York City points up for us again how difficult it is to prevent people from doing what they want to do,” Mrs. Roosevelt wrote in her syndicated column. “Evidently gambling, like drinking, is one of the things that many people want to do.”
Mrs. Roosevelt said she still believed that “certain regulations can be helpful.”
But, she said, “perhaps it would be better ,as was recently proposed, to legalize and heavily tax this type of amusement or occupation or whatever you choose to call it. Many countries have found that a high tax on hard liquor greatly reduced its consumption.”
