Now that funds are frozen, which by the way are not in the treasury, what is the next move to be taken out of the present embarrassment? FANTASY; TWO WAYS The comic magazines, so-called, are being criticizzd because of ill effects on the younger generation. Sev- eral communications on the subject have been received by The Empire and recently the Monitor editorially said the following on the subject: Certain psychologists (including handsome price by the publishers NOW WHAT NEXT? It was an unprecedented event when Levi Jack- son, a Negro, was elected Captain of the Yale Uni- ! versity football team last fall. Even more so were the invitations extended to him a few days ago to join three senior secret societies. Jackson was tapped for |the Skull and Bones, the Scroll and Key and the Berzelius Societies. He accepted the last. These honors—and at New Haven—they are re- garded as great ones—indicate the extent of Jackson's | personal popularity, which must be immense.

The undergraduate of today, however, evidently is less mindful of tradition and more ready to let conventional campus prejudices go hang. If one of his fellows is a good man, he gets elected to things, ‘ regardless of race, color or creed. It has been suggested that an annual “Old Maid’s Day" be observed. Perhaps the old maids would rather have a night. Christian Science Because a girl insists she wouldn't marry the best man in the world is no indication that she will not worry.

CLARK AND HOOVER Contrary to reports of trouble between Hoover and Attorney Gen- eral Clark, Hoover never sent a let- ter threatening resignation, and here is what actually happened be- tween the two men: Clark telephoned Hoover after Dr. Edward U. Condon of the Bur- eau of Standards had asked for an FBI apology. Jokingly, Clark call- Hoover “Dr. Condon.” Hoover laughed. Clark then asked how many con- fidential agents he had lost as a re- sult of making public the FBI re- perts in the Condon case. Hoover said he had lost about 12, and that the one that was most im- portant was inside the Russian Em- bassy The Attorney General said he had been talking to Acting Secretary of State Webb, who said he was sure the Russians knew they were being watched. Clark went on to say that he simply could not drop the Coplon case rather than produce the FBI reports because, if he did, every es- pionage agent in the United States would figure he had immunity. He would know the FBI could not pro- duce its reports in court to prove the government’s case. Hcover then asked if the the Jus- tice Department couldn’t take “a contempt” as in the Touhy case In Chicage. There, gangster Roger Touhy had demanded that certain FBI reports be produced in court, and the Justice Department had refused, even though Judge John Barnes threatened to held the local U. 8. Attorney in conteoipt. Clark replied that the Tauhy case was different from the Coplon case in that Touhy was making an ap- peal and the burden of proof was on him., Therefore, all the Justice Department risked in taking “a {assistant Attorney General | charge of the criminal division.
