Smith Creates Interest
In World Situation
Mr. Robert R. Smith of the edi
torial staff of the New York Times
spoke Wednesday night, March 18,
to Saint Mary’s student body on Far
Eastern Relations. Mr. Smith, a
Rhodes Scholarship winner, was
formerly director of War Informa
tion for Elmer Davis. He was also
responsible for the training of men
in the offices of War Information in
the Far East, where he was a resi
dent for several years.
Mi’. Smith came to a number of
important conclusions in his talk.
He is of the opinion that Nationalist
China will not try to conquer the
mainland for many years.
He also stated that he believes
the Philippines, a new democratic
country, will play an important role
in our conflict with communism.
Mr. Smith brought out that Rus
sia will pirobably take over more
and more of the Chinese frontier, as
has already been done in Man
churia.
Concluding, Mr. Smith expressed
the belief that Russia will continue
to avoid all out war as long as is
possible.
Harrelson Speaks
To SMS Assembly
J. W. Harrelson, Chancellor of
North Carolina State College, spoke
about preparing for future happi
ness in assembly Tuesday, Alarch
10. He stated that the foundation
a person lays today determines his
happiness tomorrow.
Advantages of high academic
standing and the guidance of the
Church are offered at Saint Mary’s.
Chancellor Harrelson said that one
should plan a definite objective in
his education. One should select an
occupation for which he has an apti
tude. If he chooses one of which
he is capable, he saves time, effort,
and money.
More and more women are going
into occupations which formerly
were exclusive to men. North Caro
lina State College offers many fields,
such as biological science, which
would be interesting and profitable
to girls. Chancellor Harrelson
added that some business training is
advisable for a complete education.
He closed, saying, “Think .well, plan
well.” One must plan today for fu
ture happiness.
