UNIVERSITY. Va, March 10.
promptly, firmly and politely" "
and fully two weeks ago, the Uni
versity of Virginia declined the
Nazi invitation to send delegates
to the 550th anniversary celebra-
tion of Heidelberg University, &C.
cording to President John Lloyd
Newcomb.
Last week the university was
severely criticized by newspapers
for having accepted the invitation
of the Nazis. To the papers such
an acceptance seemed a violation
of the university'S heritage from
Thomas Jefferson.
After the press comments were
brought to his attention, President
Newcomb issued a statement deny.
ing the reports from Heidelberg
that the university was planning
to send delegates to the celebra-
tion in June.
