Cast in Croydon The bell, to be enshrined in Berlin Oct. 24. United Nations day, was cast in Croydon, England, birthplace of our Liberty bell. It is presently being taken all over the nation on the crusade tour.
The Freedom scrolls signed in this country will all be placed on exhibition with the bell in Germany at the most extreme point of penetration of the American zone into Iron Curtain territory.
Noted American designer Walter Teague designed the bell, which' dramatically depots the five races of mankind passing the torch of freedom from one to another.
Scrolls On Campus Inscribed on the bell is the paraphrase of Lincoln’s Gettysburg address: "That this world under God shall have a new birth of Freedom.” j The bell, which can be heard at the distance of two miles, will ring out all during the day calling SC i students to sign the Freedom J scrolls.
Scrolls will be placed at conven- i ient spots all over the campus tomorrow and for the remainder of the week to facilitate signing.
The beJl arrives in Los Angeles at 7 tomorrow mornmg when it wiil be immediately brought to Exposition boulevard. At 4:30 in the afternoon it leaves for Phoenix.

He got surly. Knights, delegated to care for him, finally had him put into semi-retirement at a nearby animal shelter, where he went from bad to worse.
Last June Tirebiter refused to recognize any but three of his closest friends. He snapped aangerous-ly at everyone else.
Just Found Out “I didn’t know about George’s death until recently.” Arnold Eddy, general manager of the ASSC. told the DT yesterday. "Bill Hubbard, the alumnus who was taking care of him, didn’t think it was very important.”
The DT learned of George's death from Dan Schiavone, president of the Knights, who were responsible for taking care of him. When asked routinely, “How’s Tirebiter getting along?” he said,
* George is dead.”
Joint Decision
Tirebiter had been sent to the farm by a joint dtcision of Dean of Students Bernard L. Hyink, Eddy, and George Prusseli, past president of the Kniglits. George had refused to recognize even his friends in the shelter where he was confined.
Hubbard contacted at his El Centro farm, said he didn’t know the details of George's death.
“I was in Europe at the time.” he said to DT City Editor Phil Adamsak over the phone.
His footprints are in the memorial concrete block alongside those of Morley Drury, Ernie Pinkert, and other SC greats, but his mighty, throaty bark is gone.
