Aristotle One-Up On Pollster
If Dr. Gallup had been familiar with the writings of Aristotle, he wouldn’t have missed the boat in his last presidential poll.
Aristotle in his “Rhetoric” points out quite clearly the value of speech-making in shaping the outcome of a political campaign, Dr. W. Norwood Brigance, visiting professor of speech, said in an interview.
Oddly enough, said Dr. Brig-

Although Gallup underestimated the value of last-ijiinute appeals to the people in nationwide speeches, neither candidate failed to do so, said Dr. Brigance.
However, Truman covered more ground than Dewey and made definite statements, whereas Dewey’s were in the abstract. Truman promised lower prices to housewives, subsidies to farmers, and

Bowman Plans Talk on Sweden
Dr. Francis J. Bowman, head of the history department, will speak on “Cooperation and Socialism in Sweden Today’’ as the second talk in the topical lecture series, 3:15 p.m. Tuesday, Hancock auditorium.
The background of cooperative associations and the simultaneous growth of Socialism in the Scandinavian country will be developed in Dr. Bowman’s lecture. He will show how they agree and how they differ.
One difference, Dr. Bowman said, in an interview, is that Socialism is more concerned wth power than the pocketbook, while cooperation is more concerned with the pocketbook than power.
Although an out-of-towner from Wabash college, Dr. Brigance is well known at SC. He was a faculty member in 1932 and has visited here often.

Home-Building Lab Given SC
A $16,500 home-building project has just been presented to students of the School of Architecture to be used as a laboratory for practical study. The gift, which includes the presentation of a lot and the costs of construction for a home, was made by the California Federal Savings & Loan Association.
Ground - breaking ceremonies took place this week at the building site located in Baldwin Hill6 Village Gardens. The lot was purchased from Walter H. Leimert company.
Four seniors, Jerald King, Jack Strickland, Paul Tay, and Harry Wilson, have designed the home as a class project and when completed it will be put on exhibit. Profits from the sale will be turned over to the School of Architecture for a research fund.
Attending the ground-breaking event were Art Smith, contractor; Arthur B. Gallion, dean of SC’s School of Architecture; J. Howard Edgerton and Oliver M. Chat-burn, president and vice-president of California Federal; Arnold Ed-
dy, director of the company and executive secretary of the SC Alumni Association, and Walter H. Leimert.
The plan includes approximately 1400 square feet for the building, which is centered on a lot 55 by 128 feet. It was made following student interviews with sales managers and contractors of the Leimert company to learn of features preferred by prospective buyers.
Liveability in combination with practical arrangement of rooms and economy of steps were among the first considerations, accord-

. Privacy and the elimination of traffic noises will be possible because of a brick wall surrounding the premises. A patio effect will permit each room of the home to front on separate. gardens.
Plans call for a combination den and guest room, living room with wood-beamed ceilings, two bathrooms, and large closet space in addition to ample storage facilities. An ali-electric kitchen is planned to simplify housework.
“The project is unique as a cottage-type home, done in good taste and well planned for both comfort and economy,” said Leimert.
The four student designers will visit the project frequently to study progressive steps in construction and to add to their training in costs and materials. Classes in landscape design will also use the project for practical application of layout and gardens. It is expected that the model home will be open by October.
