Expensive String of Thefts Reported By Dormitory Occupants, Weaver Says By Paul Rothman Over '$200 in cash and per sonal property valued even more have been reported stolen on campus, Dean Fred Weaver reported yesterday. On Sptember 27 one of the occupants of "C" Alexander lost a pair of shoes, green suit, green sweater, pair of gray flan nel trousers, three "T" shirts, and a sport coat. The clothing vas taken while the men living in the room were attending a football game. That same night of September 27 Talmadge Rose, 218 Lewis dormitory, had $49 stolen from his room while he was taking a shower. On October 24 thefts centerea in the quonset hut area. James Street, hut 10, lost a red wool shirt, and Bob Edwards, hut 9, a brown corduroy jacket. Three nights later the robberies were located in Manley dormitory, where money and football tick ets were taken.

"Last year about 85 per cent of the students availed themselves of this free serv ice"" he continued, "and out of that number we had only three people report any se rious reactions." The vaccine on hand, which cost almost $3,000, is judged about 80 per cent ef fective, and in addition to the expense, considerable time and trouble has been involved in obtaining the preventative. When the University pro vided the shots in late Oc tober of last year, they were pioneering in a program which is being carried out in many colleges and universi ties all over the country this fall. Dr. Hedgepeth stressed the responsibility each student has not only to himself but to everyone enrolled in the University to prevent a pos sible flu epidemic by taking the shots which are available at no cost to the individual.

SP Schedules Consideration Of Nominations for Today The Student party will meet at 4:30 this afternoon in Rolan Parker lounge No. 1 to consider nominations for Student Legislature, Student, Men's, and Women's coun cils, and for junior and freshman class officers, announced SP Chairman Charlie Long yesterday. Long added that stress would be laid on the class nominations in view of the bad publicity given them in light of student body Presi dent Tom Eller's veto of the elections bill. He asked that all interested persons be pres ent at the meeting. Continuing on the subject of class elections, the SP head stated, "Complete confusion reigns on the issue of fresh man class officers for two main reasons. The Legisla- ture, in an attempt to rush the election, failed to proper ly provide enough time for publicity. The result was that some parties failed to nom inate and the freshmen did not know what was going on. "President Eller very wise ly saw fit to veto the entire measure," continued Long, "so that the Legislature could meet and revamp the election bill." The second reason given by the chairman was that the majority of freshmen on cam pus are completely ignorant of election procedure here, and could hardly be expected to understand a subject which, in his opinion, many officials in student govern ment do not entirely under stand themselves.

S. Senate, was a small price to pay for the present needs in American housing. He added that the housing problem is not mere ly a slum problem, but one that faces the middle class. The sociology professor pointed out that the housing shortage exists either because not enough houses have been built at low enough selling prices or because incomes have not been raised suffi ciently. He asserted that pri vate construction companies were unable to meet the one and one quarter million hous ing units annually provided for bv the Taft-Ellender-Wag- The Phi resolution favoring the bill was passed by a close 10 to 8 vote.

"For instance," he says, "We have to pay Russia 300 million dollars reparations under the Paris peace treaty of September, 1946. We have already paid 40 per cent of that amount. We will pay the remainder within the next five years." Dr. Jutila states that Finland has received 120 million dollars from the United States in the last two years which is being used for industry, agriculture and the import of certain foods. He says that American money is the third factor . tl4 rluoc; production of Finland listing Finnish forest resources and the people's hard work as the other two factors. When asked about the report ed 99 per cent literacy of the people of Finland, Dr. Jutila said that the figure was very correct.
