Senate voting records of three
announced candidates for the
presidential nomination showed
yesterday that Senator Russell of
Georgia differed most often with
President Truman, not only on
domestic issues but also on for
eign policy measures.

the Presidents proposals on %
of A roll calls but stood with him
on 20. He was not recorded on

By Taft's Manager
Of Political Trickey

Senator Taft's Eastern cam
paign manager said last night it
was so much poppycock" to sup
pose New Jersey Republican or
ganization workers could oppose
Gov. Alfred E. Driscoll's personal
choice" of Gen. Eisenhower for
the presidential nomination.
John D. M: Hamilton accused
the Governor of "a breach of faith
and underhanded political ma

statement from Taft headquarters
here, that the Governor might
have had his eye on the vice pres

support Gen. Eisenhower.
AS a result of the Governors
action. the Ohio Senator with

the letter he will ask the court for
permission to strike the name from
the ballots.
Activities Terminated.
Mr.. Hamilton, announcing that
"every aspect of the Taft commit
tees activities have been termi-
mated" in New Jersey, criticized
the sharp tactics" and "f1imsyI
excuse" of Gov. Driscoll. He
charged that the Governors COM

constitutes nothing other than
a stupid attempt to cover up his
breach of faith and underhanded
political Vaccinations" He also
charged that the Governor was

EDITORIAL

Spring has arrived, summer
is fast approaching, and stu
dents aren't studying. The last
six weeks often tend to pro-
cure low averages and failures
instead of AS and high aver
ages. Why? Many people would
simply answer-Spring Fever.
Spring Fever seems to be the
definition for the lazy, lacka-
dasical moods that affect peO-
pie in this season. It is said
that in the spring time a young
mans thoughts turn to love
well, so do the thoughts of a
young woman, but that is no
reason to abandon all interest
in school work and activities.
Remember that the work that
is done during the last six
weeks will help to make a last
ing impression on the teach
ers. A good reputation through
out the school year, instead of
Just the first semester should
be your goal. This marking
period strive with all your
energy toward that goal.

THE TEAcHER

Behind her ink-stained desk,
as on a bridge
Above a deck of upturned
eyes,
She sits the captain of a noisy
crew
That little cares where
knowledge lies.
AdrOit, discreet, her sternness
but a mask
To leave her mistress of
tumultuOus youth,
She trims the sails of discipline
and steers
The devious course that leads
to Truth.
Staid watcher of soft growth
still April-small,
She, from the calm that
autumns bring,
Sees life reborn in yearly
bursts of bloom
And old despairs made glad
with spring.
And sensing from the bud the
opening flower,
She guards those petals
half-unfurled,
And in a casual hand made
white with chalk
She holds and moulds the
coming world.
