The United States has . sent Russia two notes tonight one on Man churia, the other on Iran. The notes were dispatched shortly after Secretary of State Byrnes told newsmen that Rus sia was violating wartime agree ments by stripping Manchurian cities of their war factories. Al though the contents of , the notes have not been revealed, it's be lieved that Byrnes has warned Russia against taking Man churian industrial equipment out of the country. The Manchurian situation is expected to come to a head in 10 days time when an inter-Allied reparations commission for Japan is established. , There will undoubtedly be sharp differences between the "United States and Russia over "war booty in Manchuria." The other note is expected to support British and Iranian pro tests to Russia for failing to withdraw her troops from Iran last Saturday.

Announcement of the move also came from Norman Shep ard, of Davidson college, who is chairman of the No. 3 district committee of the NCAA, and it was in climax to three days of controversy and guessing on the part of the press and fans in North Carolina. "I'm sure glad we got it," Coach Ben Carnevale said last night, "for the boys all deserved it. They didn't have but one really bad night in 31 games, and it just happened to come in the tournament. The decision whether to accept was left up to them, and they voted unanimous ly to accept." "The regular season is over," Carnevale continued, "but after a one-week rest, the boys will be back at work and will be ready to go to the playoffs in New York and do their best.

Wagner's "A Night In Old Vienna," which will play here Thursday evening, ap proached the concert stage via the night club route. At Chi cago's famed Palmer House, he earned such' a success and built up such a loyal clientele that he was re-engaged for many months. Gordon is much more than a night club entertainer. He is well schooled, artistic and ser ious in his music. For three years he was a leading tenor with the Chicago Opera Com pany, and a guest with the Mil waukee and St. Paul Operas. He has sung concerts of distinction throughout the mid-west and Canada. He has also appeared with the Minneapolis Symphony. Possessor of a genial person ality, Gordon is the ideal Master of Ceremonies in" Thursday night's program. Giuseppe Bam boschek, who for many years was general musical secretary of the Metropolitan Opera, will serve as Musical Director to Gordon and his four colleagues in this program of Viennese mu sic. Mona Bradford, contralto of the Chicago Opera; Laura Castellano, New York lyric soprano; John Gurney, basso of the Metropolitan Opera; and Eduardo Rael, baritone of the Boston Opera Company, will also be in the program of musical entertainment. m By Associated Collegiate Press "But why?" they say.

According to Prof. Field, the superior stu dents are being placed at a dis advantage by the curriculum which' are now popular. In his article, he agrees with Charles Evans Hughes, who said, "I am one of those who believe in the classical and mathematical training and I do not think we have found any satisfactory sub stitute for it."
