The World
Whirls On

Viipuri.

Now Finland's Verdun has fallen;
her defenders are in retreat. And as
the Finns retreat toward the capital, their position becomes less and
less defensible, for the Karelian isthmus widens in
e
fashion as
Is roes toward Helsinki.
But Finland may not lose her war
after all. Last weekend the Swedish
government announced that negotiations for an armistice between
the two warring nations were being
begun after several weeks of dinlo- rnatic correspondence between Helsinki and Moscow through the Swedish foreign office. Both nations preferred to negotiate throueh Sweden,
because neither wished to give the
Impression that she was weakening.
After a few days of bickering over
the green table, nothing definite developed. It was said that the Rnviet
wanted a large section of Karelian
isthmus, including nearly half of
the Mannerheim line, as their nriw
of peace. Since the Finns refused to
grant a demand of an even smaller
amount of territory at the threat of
war in the beginning, observers
.doubted that they would acquiesce
to a larger demand now that they
had seen the Red army's worst.
Backing up Finland's refusal was
the combined English-Frenc- h
war
council. They offered to send a
expeditionary force to
Helsinki immediately if the Finns
want it. The Allies point out that
they would be fulfilling the Conven-aof the League of Nations by aiding a fellow member who asks aid
against invasion by an outlaw
tion.
If an Allied expeditionary force
should go to the aid of Finland, it
would necessarily have to travel
cross Sweden. So Sweden, when
she heard the proposed plan of the
Allies, warned them that, if thev
were going to send any force at all.

Hitler, the Swedes say, wants to

ROME German foreign minister
Joachim von Ribbentrop conferred
with Premier Mussolini for an hour
and a half yesterday on the Allies'
offer of troops to Finland. He was
nderstaod to have informed II Due
of Germany's situation after six
months of war and of Fuehrer Hitler's plans for furthering the war.
Diplomatic officials point out that
Ribbratrop's visit was very well
timed since Italy has become some-whestranged from Germany since
Hitler's offensive treaty with Russia. Italy's recent dispute with England over Italian ships bringing coal

Group On Curriculum
Vetoes Suggestion
A proposed
recitation
course in physics, which was to
have been offered In conjunction
with the 51 lecture series, was voted
down by the University curriculum
committee. Prof. John Kuiper, chairman of that group, announced yesterday at a meeting of the University Senate.
Reasons given for the action were
1) since it was to have been available only to "good" students, it
"would not provide academic aid
to those who needed that aid most,"
and 2) such a course would tend to
interfere wtih the synchronization
cf an already congested schedule.
A student legislature resolution
which would permit optional class
attendance to all upperclassmen
with standings of 2.2 or better, has
been referred to the University's
rules committee. Dr. Leo Chamberlain, Senate secretary, said last
night. The petition, provided it is
passed by the rules group, will be
brought before the Senate at its
April meeting, Dr. Chamberlain explained.
The present rule governing the
dropping of classes by students was
altered to read as follows:
1) Up to November 1 in the first
semester, March 20 In the second
semester and through the tenth
class day in the Summer Session,
students who withdraw from a class
or who are dropped from a class
will have no mark recorded. After
these dates, students who withdarw
or are dropped from a class are to
be given WP or W or E, as reported
by the instructor of the class.
2) Tn computing standings for all
University purposes a WF shall be
treated as an E.

The prize, $50, was inaugurated

paper must be presented by the
author in person.
Doctor Allen's paper, which will

In its "Transactions." deals with
the subject "Science and the Human Mores."
Dr. Allen stated that his paper
was an attempt to show that all
through the realm of nature there is
a behavior pattern that Is followed
without deviation. This pattern is
found in chemical compounds, the
rocks of the earth, the forces of
rain sod wind, the planets and the
living plants and animals, he said.
Dr. Alfred Brauer, professor of
zoology, and secretary of the academy, announced that the 27th an

Guignol Triumphs In Current Production Of 'Our Town That Catches
Spirit Ot Homespun New England Life By Excellent Directing, Casting
By LOUISE C ALBERT
Under protest I sign my name to
a review of Thornton Wilder's
three-aplay, "Our Town," produced by Frank Fowler and presented at 8:30 each night this week
on the Guignol stage.
I protest because: 1) the manuscript of the play itself is good;
2) Frank Fowler has produced a
triumph beyond reproach and adverse criticism; 3) no dramatic critic
could find words beautiful enough
to express the appreciation and en- joyment I felt in the play.
The drama opened last night for
a week's run at the little theater

the Kernel himself realized, at
last, that he had appeared silly
tossing the
around and
did not have the guts to do it again.
It seems to me the Kernel knew
darn well that only Martin Dies
would have dared to say that Stanford students were dominated by
Mosrow! When the Stanford Council said that to sanction support
would not be consistent with its
established policy of opposing student
partisan
participation
in
causes, he could not have used the
same smelly "line"! It seems to me
he knew that when the former
President Herbert Hoover who Is
head of the National Finnish Relief Fund and whose home is on

Alma Mater in his "Finn Plan" that
that was to much for the Kernel's
stomach: Why, even Dr. Roy Lyman Wilbur who was President
Hoover's secretary of Interior and
is now President of Stanford in denouncing the Council's action could
only meekly say that It "made a
mistake in trying to act like the
U. S. Senate."
All evidence indicates that the
